After Marrying Him, the Ending Has Changed-Chapter 114 - : What a Little Bookworm
Chapter 114: Chapter 114: What a Little Bookworm
Yet the Jiang family members’ faces couldn’t help but reveal an envious tint, “Eating meat seven or eight times a month, people from Capital really live a blessed life!”
In their rural areas, they can’t even expect to enjoy a meat meal once a month!
No wonder they grow so tall; eating those precious, refined grains and meat every day, how could they not grow well?
Sun Lixia’s heart tightened even more with discomfort at the thought of sending the child to his uncle’s, where they would have given him who knows how many nice things to thank him!

Why can’t such good fortune ever fall upon their Third Branch?
Although Yu Cheng’s arrival had provided the Jiang family with plenty to talk about, their curiosity couldn’t keep them from their work.
...
The remaining children of the Jiang family surrounded Yu Cheng, bombarding him with questions, the girls even more so, both shy and unable to stop themselves from staring at him.
They had never seen such a handsome boy before!
The village boys, one by one, were dark from the sun, unhygienic, and liked to pull on their hair; they were fed up with the boys in the village.
Now, suddenly seeing a boy who was clean and spoke in a calm and deliberate manner, they found it extremely novel.
Er Ya, looking at Yu Cheng, mustered her courage and asked, “Big Brother, do you also go to school in the Capital?”
“Yeah, I do,” Yu Cheng answered briefly.
Having just been interrogated by the Jiang family’s adults for a good while, and now surrounded by a bunch of little kids, his patience was nearly at its limit.
If this had been in the Capital, he would have already lost his temper and sent people away, but since the Jiang family had saved his life, he could only forcefully suppress his irritability.
Er Ya asked another question: “Are there many girls at your school who study?”
“Quite a few,” he replied.
Yu Cheng, thinking about whether he should go outside to seek a quiet spot, saw the little girl who looked like a ball of dough walking toward the inner room.
Zhaodi, noticing him watching Jiang Mianmian, whispered a warning, “Big Brother, don’t go in and disturb Third Sister while she’s studying, or Uncle will scold you.”
Hearing this, Yu Cheng stood up and followed her in.
Noticing his entrance, Jiang Mianmian looked at him with confusion, “Why did you come in?”
Yu Cheng shrugged, “I don’t want to play with the kids.”
Remembering his ordeal just now, Jiang Mianmian nodded in understanding, “You can sit on the kang.”
She then took out her homework, which her teacher had left for her, moved a small table onto the kang, and began writing quietly.
Yu Cheng glanced over and quickly lost interest, settling down on the kang with his legs stretched out, seemingly daydreaming.
Of course, it only looked like daydreaming; in reality, he was thinking to himself about his decision to run away from home, how his stepmother was probably delighted to death, probably hoping he’d never come back.
His father probably thought the same way, considering his favorite was the obedient and sensible younger son, not himself, the rebellious, confrontational eldest.
Without him, the three of them would have such a happy and perfect life!
Hmph, wishful thinking—he wouldn’t let their dreams come true!
Once he found his uncle, he was going to first apologize to the old man, then beg him to bring his uncle back to the Capital…
Yu Cheng, having gone through these thoughts, came back to his senses and saw Jiang Mianmian still intently doing her homework.
He hadn’t expected this little girl to be so young, yet so patient.
All this time, her hand had been moving, never showing a hint of distraction; she really was a little bookworm.
So, somewhat bored, Yu Cheng reached out and waved his hand in front of her eyes, successfully catching her attention.
“What’s up?” Jiang Mianmian asked, looking at him with her clear, large black and white eyes, showing no irritation at being disturbed.
