Chapter 189 I went home to eat with my mother
Yunqing fell ill due to being caught in the rain and being too angry.
Zhan Yu was also very sad for many days because Zhan Mengyan failed to go to the normal school. Whenever he saw Zhan Mengyan studying, he would shake his head and sigh, "Alas, no matter how much you study, it's useless, useless...
Zhan Yingying is busy working in the fields, doing laundry, cooking, and taking care of her sick mother.
Zhan Mengyan also became taciturn. On weekends, she would often go to the big well at the east end of the village and sit there for half a day, until the sun went down and it was almost dark, but she didn't know how to go home...
With the help of Zhan Yingying, Yunqing went to the east end of the village to look for Zhan Mengyan. From a distance, she saw Zhan Mengyan's thin body sitting on the edge of the well. Yunqing said to Zhan Yingying beside her distressedly: "Yingying, after the secondary normal school exam, your sister has lost a lot of weight and has become less talkative. It's really heartbreaking to see her."
"Yes, Mom, we have to think of a way to help sister Mengyan get out of the shadow of having her admission quota replaced. She is so depressed every day, how can she concentrate on preparing for the high school entrance examination? If this goes on, she will be ruined." Zhan Yingying said with concern.
"Well, you should ask your sister to come home for dinner first. We need to make long-term plans. If she doesn't get rid of her worries, she won't be able to concentrate on the next high school entrance examination." Yunqing said earnestly.
"Mengyan...Mengyan...Mom is calling you to go home for dinner..." Zhan Yingying shouted loudly.
Zhan Mengyan seemed not to hear anything and still sat blankly on the edge of the well, not moving a muscle.
Zhan Yingying saw that Zhan Mengyan didn't respond, so she said to Yunqing, "Mom, wait for me here. If we go any further, there will be no road. It's all weeds. You've just recovered from a serious illness and you're weak. You may be tripped by the weeds. I'll go to the well and call Mengyan first."
Yunqing looked at the wormwood that was half a person's height in front of her, which made her feel daunted, so she said, "Okay, Yingying, you should be careful too. The wormwood is too tall, and it's not easy to walk. You have to wade through it, so watch your step."
Just as Zhan Yingying took a few steps, a toad suddenly jumped out, scaring her so much that she fell to the ground.
Yunqing saw Zhan Yingying fall down and exclaimed, "Yingying, what happened to you? What tripped you? Did you step on a snake?"
"Hehe, it's nothing. A toad suddenly jumped out and scared me. I'd better not step on the snake. It's cold, slippery and disgusting." Zhan Yingying replied with a smile, and quickly stood up. Her wrist was accidentally scratched by a plant called "Lala vine", leaving bloody marks.
Zhan Yingying was afraid of encountering a poisonous snake, so she found a dry branch and pulled it back and forth in front of her to clear a path. Grasshoppers, frogs, toads, etc. were frightened and jumped around...
Zhan Yingying was almost up to Zhan Mengyan, but she still hadn't noticed her, her eyes staring blankly into the distance.
Zhan Yingying was afraid of scaring Zhan Mengyan, so she sat on the edge of the well. If she stumbled, she would easily fall into the well. So Zhan Yingying lay on the ground and crawled forward. When she crawled to Zhan Mengyan's feet hanging down from the edge of the well, she quickly grabbed Zhan Mengyan's right ankle.
Zhan Mengyan suddenly felt someone grabbing her feet. She was really scared and her body staggered and swayed instinctively. Fortunately, Zhan Yingying was prepared and held her ankle tightly without letting go.
Zhan Mengyan looked down and saw Zhan Yingying, and asked in surprise: "Sister Yingying, when did you come? Why is there no movement at all? Have you ever been trained as a special police officer? Or have you learned the art of invisibility? Don't you know that scaring people can kill them?"
Zhan Yingying pulled Zhan Mengyan down from the edge of the well and said in a reproachful manner: "Mengyan, you are not allowed to sit on the edge of the well again. If you accidentally fall in, you will drown and no one will know. It's too dangerous!"
"When I sit on the edge of this big well, I feel particularly relaxed and peaceful," said Zhan Mengyan.
"You are feeling relaxed and calm. My mother and I were so nervous when we saw you sitting in this dangerous place," Zhan Yingying retorted.
"Won't you tell mom? When did you become so timid, sister?" Zhan Mengyan muttered softly.
"I said, you're still not convinced, right? Do you think I have nothing better to do and am willing to tell my mother about you? Your every move affects my mother's heart. She is watching you, watching you." Zhan Yingying said, pinching Zhan Mengyan's face.
Zhan Mengyan looked around subconsciously. She saw her mother waving her hands vigorously in the distance, signaling her to come over quickly.
Zhan Mengyan's face was filled with smiles and her eyes were sparkling with tears of excitement. She felt her mother's deep love.
Zhan Yingying wiped away the tears from her sister's eyes, held her hand tightly, silently conveying the power of love, and they walked towards their mother together...
"Mengyan, come home with your mother for dinner..." Yunqing's voice floated around the big well.
