Cannon Fodder's Humanoid Plug-in

congenitally handicapped brother

It didn't take long to get from Dashan Village to the town.

But it took a long time to return to Gaojia Village from the town. The family went out to welcome the morning dew, and returned home wearing evening stars.

Ever since Yan Shu left Ma's house, she has been out of her mind all the way.

Even when Yan Chen made an excuse according to the original plan and dragged her to the post office to post the letter, she couldn't be happy.

The big brother in the green vest at the post office probably thought that something happened to the siblings' family, so he tactfully comforted them.

The New Year's Eve has been sunny for several days, but tonight is actually a snowy night.

Before they got home, Night Breeze sang a desolate folk song accompanied by snowflakes all over the sky.

But this voice made Yan Shu cheer up again.

When she got home, Mrs. Liu turned to get the hot water bottle, ready to pour some hot water for her son to soak his hands and feet.Mrs. Liu made a fuss about cooking some hot ginger soup to relieve the cold.

Grandma Yan was chopping the snow under her feet at the door.

Yan Shu dragged her younger brother into the room, and waited for Grandma Yan to come in before calling softly, "Grandma..."

"Grandma, I don't want to get married."

If she said the first sound, she was still full of apprehension and uncertainty; then the second sound, everyone can hear: she has made such a determination.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

Both Father Yan and Uncle Yan were stunned, and Mrs. Fang was in the kitchen. The only sound was the sound of Mrs. Liu, who had just taken out the basin, pouring water.

Yan Chen looked at Yan Shu, then at Grandma Yan.

Grandma Yan also turned her head: "What did you say?"

"I said... I don't want to get married yet, grandma." Yan Shu's tone was visibly softer after a vigorous effort, and then weakened.

But she was still firm in her heart, looking forward to it.

She was looking forward to her little request being agreed, but unfortunately, Grandma Yan obviously failed to understand what she meant.

The old lady suddenly realized: "Let me tell you why you suddenly became muffled this afternoon."

"It scares you." Grandma Yan said with a smile, "I'm either going to marry you off right now, or I'll take care of you in advance. Don't worry, grandma is not the kind of arbitrary person."

"When the time comes to talk about marriage, it must be approved by you first."

It sounds like it couldn't be better.

It should be noted that even after the reform, there are still many families in rural areas, the elders arrange marriages alone, and the younger generations marry blindly.

The big stone that weighed on Yan Shu's heart gradually fell down.

Grandma still cares about her opinion.

But soon, Grandma Yan smiled and gave her a heavy blow: "You don't want to get married so early, then let's get engaged first."

"It's not a big deal for the rumors in the village to spread like this."

Grandma Yan's thoughts are obvious.

She was afraid that when the rumors spread, her granddaughter would be burdened by it, and it would be difficult to find someone else, so she wanted to make a decision as soon as possible, since she was old anyway.

Yan Shu saw through her thoughts, but couldn't understand.

In other words, she could actually understand it in her heart, but she was stubbornly unwilling to accept it.

Rumors, the rumors were created by the Gao family.

Why is she so anxious to marry her because of those rumors, who hadn't planned to marry her?

"I don't want it!" Yan Shu resisted.

"What don't you want?"

"I don't want to get engaged, grandma, I don't want to get married, I just want to..."

"What do you want to do? If you don't get married, what do you want to do? Do you want to be a nun or stay at home for the rest of your life? Huh?"

Before Yan Shu finished speaking, she was interrupted by Grandma Yan.

When has the old lady been contradicted like this?What's more, marriage is an inevitable journey in life, why Yan Shu is so resistant to it?

"I think you have read two books, and your heart is wild!"

She was very angry: "There is no need to discuss this matter. I'm not going to sell you. What are you in a hurry, Yan Shu? You're talking like this with me."

"Look at other girls, who is like you."

Putting down such a passage like a series of cannonballs, Grandma Yan wanted to continue to reprove.

When I looked up, I saw my granddaughter standing there with a face full of disappointment, looking at me.Tears rolled in her eyes, but stubbornly refused to fall.

"Uh……"

"The ginger soup is ready." Fang walked out from behind with a smile, and felt the stagnant atmosphere at the scene, wondering for a moment: "What's the matter?"

"It's okay." Grandma Yan snorted.

She finally glanced sideways at Yan Shu, showing her tiredness, and waved her hands back to her room: "Go to bed early, I won't drink ginger soup."

As soon as Grandma Yan left, the air flow resumed.

Fang was at a loss, Liu pulled her daughter aside, watched her lower her head and wiped away her tears, and was so anxious that she didn't know how to comfort her.

"Yan Shu, your grandma is right, this girl is going to..."

"Mom!" Yan Chen shouted.

As soon as Liu turned her head, she saw her son facing the water in the basin with aggrieved face: "My hands are so cold, can I soak them in this water?"

"Wait a minute, let me try."

Liu's attention was drawn away in an instant, and when the hot water was finished and she was about to go back to relieve her daughter, Yan Chen took another step ahead.

"Sister, let's go clubbing together, sister, you just came back, and your hands are icy on me."

He didn't invite, but directly pulled Yan Shu without refusing, lifted her hands one by one, and pressed them into the water basin.

The small mouth is still buzzing.

Liu Shi didn't have a chance to speak at all.

Strange, why is Chenchen talking so much today?She was about to insert it and interrupt the chattering Yan Chen.

Yan's father pulled her: "Go and serve ginger soup to the child."

After eating a bowl of ginger soup for each of them, Mrs. Liu had to watch the fire and boil water for washing, but couldn't find the time to enlighten Yan Shu.

At that time, the earthen stove was still used to boil water, and the water was also drawn from the well. It is winter now, and it may take more than a quarter of an hour to boil a pot of water.

During the waiting time, Yan Chen walked into Grandma Yan's room.

The old lady hasn't washed yet, and she certainly hasn't slept.

Seeing Yan Chen coming to her with a bowl of ginger soup in his hand, he was quite surprised: "Baby, what's the matter? Why don't you drink this ginger soup?"

"I've already drank it." Yan Chen handed the bowl to her: "It's for milk."

Grandma Yan was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed: "Okay, okay, let's be filial and know how to care about grandma."

"No." Yan Chen shook his head.

He said honestly, "My sister asked me to bring it to you."

Yan Xiaohua and Yan Xiaoxi, Yanchen usually called them Big Sister and Third Sister, but Yan Shu was the only one who called them Sister directly.

The old lady's smile faded.

"It's Miss Shu..." She sighed slightly, picked up the ginger soup, and drank it in one gulp.

"Grandma, don't be angry with my sister."

Seeing her put down the bowl, Yan Chen blinked and pleaded for her sister: "And I don't want my sister to get married so early, isn't my sister only 16? Isn't the marriage age set by the country?"①

The old lady seemed to have heard a joke: "Silly Chenchen, how many newly married girls have you seen in our village?"

Yan Chen: "..."

Yan Chen was a little annoyed: "But that's what the country stipulates. Isn't eldest sister only getting married at the age of 19?"

"Your eldest sister is in a special situation." Grandma Yan didn't want to say more: "Okay, Chenchen, don't meddle in this matter. It is only natural for a man to marry a woman. Stubborn, I will understand later..."

"I don't understand." Yan Chen withdrew from her embrace.

He puffed up his face: "The future is the future, my sister doesn't want to marry now, why must she marry someone?"

"You're here to argue with me, aren't you?"

Grandma Yan was not angry, she smiled and pretended to pull her grandson's ear, and asked instead: "She won't marry or have a family, who will support her in the future?"

"Me!" Yan Chen didn't think twice.

"You can't, you want to start a family in the future, when your daughter-in-law fights with your sister, your sister won't take it for granted."

"No." Yan Chen said firmly, "And there are parents, and parents will also raise my sister."

Grandma Yan didn't know that what he said "wouldn't" meant "wouldn't be able to start a family", otherwise she would definitely have to vigorously strengthen the ideological education of her grandson.

She smiled and said: "Your parents will also grow old, and they will be like me now, and there will be your uncle and uncle, and they will all depend on you to support them."

Yan Chen was stunned: "I am alone, do I have to support so many people?"

"That's right." Looking at her grandson's little label, Grandma Yan couldn't help feeling sorry for him: "So you said, should your sister marry?"

Unexpectedly, Yan Chen shook his head: "It's fine."

He cheered himself up: "Anyway, I have to support so many people, and it doesn't matter if I have one more sister."

Grandma Yan: "..."

Grandma Yan was angry and laughed, and tapped his forehead vigorously: "You are really angry with me."

"I don't care what you say, anyway, this matter is not for discussion, and you don't even think about mixing things up."

"You are still young, so you don't understand. This woman can't rely on men, parents, or brothers. She has to rely on herself when she is young, and on her children when she is old."

Yan Chen was confused: "You can't rely on men, so why do you want to get married?"

"Silly Chenchen." Grandma Yan couldn't help laughing: "Your parents are not married, where did you come from?"

Yan Chen: "..."

Xu Shi chatted deeply, and the old lady suddenly sighed: "If Shu girl could continue to study, I might not be able to control her now."

Yan Chen: "Why?"

"Reading makes people stubborn." Grandma Yan joked, "Just like your grandfather, the more you read, the more stubborn you become."

"You guys, your sister is the most like your grandfather, looking at the soft-spoken and kind-hearted, she is more stubborn than anyone else in her heart."

"Blame me, I shouldn't have encouraged her to study hard at the beginning..."

Yan Chen frowned, and said in disapproval: "But grandma, you said before that reading more books is never harmful."

Why are you still contradicting yourself?

Grandma Yan sighed: "There is no harm in reading."

"But people, the more they know, the more ambitious they become, and the more unwilling they are to be ordinary."

"How many geniuses are there in this world?"

Accompanied by the wind outside the window, Grandma Yan recalled many things in a trance.

"Girl Shu... When I saw her running to the yard in the middle of the night to recite her texts, I knew that she, like your grandfather, couldn't live in a small place."

"It was I who saw her work hard and chose this path for her."

"But the way back was blocked..." Regret was revealed from the old lady's old eyes:

"Chenchen, your sister is different from you. She is not as smart as you. She is still a girl. If the opportunity is missed, it will be difficult to have a second chance."
