Chapter 392: New Year’s Letter
“Ah!”
Soon, they all heard the sound of pots and pans being smashed in another room. There were also waves of screams.
If it had been any other time, Yun Xi would have already gone up to teach Yun Zhu a lesson when she saw him smash his stuff.
However, this was a different time after all. She knew a thing or two about the situation before her eyes. It made her recall the experience of Yun Yang in her previous life. Yun Yang had also been molested by someone. As he was a boy, the law could not punish that person. Hence, Yun Yang personally punished that person.
The scoundrel who molested Yun Yang had received the punishment he deserved. However, Yun Yang had also been sent to prison for intentional assault and had been sentenced to life imprisonment.!!
Therefore, in this life, she still felt some sympathy for him. However, it was just simple sympathy.
If Yun Yang had not been molested in his previous life and had not been beaten up, he might still have been a radiant child.
However, reality was always so cruel.
She did not dare to imagine how she would react in this life if her younger brother had really encountered such a thing outside.
“Yun Yang, a boy should also protect himself when he’s outside. This is the pepper spray that I made with chili water. Keep it on you. If you meet a bad person, use this to deal with him.”
As she spoke, Yun Xi took out a bottle of pepper spray from her pocket and handed it to Yun Yang, she then instructed, “No matter who it is, you must remember that you must not be lenient when you meet anyone. You must learn to protect yourself. You must remember what your sister said. You must remember it, understand?”
Yun Xi was a little emotional.
Yunyang took the chili oil that his sister had given him and nodded his head vigorously.
“Don’t worry, sister. I will protect myself.”
“Your mail has arrived!”
Just as everyone stood rooted to the ground, not knowing how to console Yun Zhu, the postman rushed to deliver the mail during the New Year. It really was an all-year-round holiday!
“I don’t know what urgent matter your family has. It’s the New Year, do you need such a rushed delivery? I was just about to have a New Year’s Eve dinner at home but I ran into this kind of work, so I rushed to deliver it to you.”
This big brother of the postman was also a chatterbox. Although there was some sarcasm in his mouth, it sounded quite heartwarming.
The delivery was a few letters sent by Yun Qiao to his parents and Yun Gang’s family.
The letters gave a brief account of his recent situation and told everyone that he had now become an official soldier. The national sympathizer stayed in the military camp for the New Year, but they have been given a month’s salary in advance and some bonuses.
Yun Qiao was now in the army, eating and living in the army. He wore the uniform that was given to him, so he did not need to spend any money at all. He mailed the money to his family and told Ma Yan to use the money to pay for his younger brother’s school fees, no matter what, he had to make sure that Yun Zhu went to school.
If Yun Qiao in the army knew that Yun Zhu had encountered such a thing, he would be heartbroken!
“I’ll go and comfort Yun Zhu first. I’ll have to trouble you all with the other matters today!”
Ma Yan lost her usual aggressive aura in an instant, as if she had aged by more than ten years in an instant. She also did not expect her son to meet with such an incident outside.
Looking at Ma Yan’s haggard face, Yun Xi also had a feeling that she could not bear it.
After some discussion, the few of them realized that the amount of money that Yun Qiao had sent back was not a small sum. It was enough to support Yun Zhu and allow him to study in the county town. Furthermore, the child’s current condition was not suitable for him to return to his hometown in the countryside, if there were any physical or mental illnesses, Doctor Lu would be able to treat them in time.
It just so happened that Yun Qiao had gone out to join the army. After everyone dispersed, an empty room was made available for Yun Zhu to stay and study in the county town’s primary school.
Yun Xi had originally looked down on this thieving child. However, seeing that he had the same experience as Yun Yang, she still wanted to take care of him. Hence, she did not say anything and tacitly agreed with Ma Yan’s idea.
Yun Zhu’s situation was actually not very optimistic. He often curled up into a ball by himself and would lose his temper at any time. He would not listen to others and would just immerse himself in his own world. If this continued, he would sooner or later develop mental illness.
However, at this age, this was not a big problem. After another two years, it would mostly be better and now was the best buffer time.
He just hoped that his family could accompany him as much as possible and help him get through this obstacle!
