It rained yesterday.

Today it is not as hot.

There is both sunshine and wind.

Jiang Wan left.

There is still a faint scent lingering in the courtyard.

It is not just the fragrance from Jiang Wan's body, but also the old clothes she left behind carried the fragrance.

Jiang Mianmian does not really like that smell.

Jiang Yu sits on the wooden post in the yard, concentrating on tearing off the cracked heel of her foot.

The pain makes her whimper and tears roll down.

Jiang Mianmian feels the pain just watching.

Her little fists tighten unconsciously.

As a result, after sister tore off the skin on her heel, she did not even treat it, just rinsed it with the cool water in the yard. Seeing that it stopped bleeding, she started sewing again.

Lying in a small wooden basin, Jiang Mianmian watches her sister happily working again.

Sister's personality is quite good. Other than speaking unpleasantly, she is happy most of the time.

She also does not hold grudges.

Jiang Mianmian's infant brain ponders for a while, then feels tired again and wants milk.

As she turns her head, she sees that little ant has crawled up again.

Persevering, it carefully crawls on the edge of the wooden basin.

It is very close. She can see that the little ant is very fit.

It has good proportions and looks nice - thin waist, six legs seem delicate but powerful.

The head-body ratio is at least nine heads. The body is slender, dark and shiny, as if with a shell. The tail looks a bit like a chicken heart, with two lines on it, giving it a mysterious feel.

On its head there are not only two antennae, but also two pincers. The pincers look quite sharp. If it bites her it would definitely hurt a lot.

She can't find its eyes, but it seems like the little black ant is watching her.

Thinking this, Jiang Mianmian reaches out her hand again, moves closer to the little ant slowly, closes her eyes, and pushes it away...

Then she cries out, "Waah, waah, waah!"

No one in the family understands that she is even afraid of ants. The more closely she looks, the more afraid she becomes.

Hearing her sister cry, Jiang Yu hurriedly gets up to check on her.

Same routine - first pat her bottom. Okay, it's wet...

Change her diaper.

Jiang Mianmian also takes the chance to wipe her ant-pushing finger on sister's body a few more times.

With a new diaper, sister does not sew anymore.

She starts washing clothes.

The family wears clothes quite thriftily, they don't wash constantly, mainly just Jiang Mianmian's diapers.

Jiang Yu works very efficiently, the diapers she washes have no urine smell left at all.

But her mouth does not stop.

Although mother always reminds her to speak less when going out, to avoid trouble, right now she is at home, with only her sister in front, and Jiang Wan who just came and left.

Jiang Yu has a bellyful of words to say.

Although her sister may not understand, she cannot help but chatter on.

"If mother sees I have taken Jiang Wan's things when she comes back, she will definitely be unhappy." sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ N0vᴇlFire(.)nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

Jiang Mianmian quickly responds: "Ah ah." (Yes yes)

"Brother can take things from the prostitute, why can't I take things from Jiang Wan's side."

"Yi ya ya ya" (You're right)

"But brother helped them with work, he took payment, I didn't help Jiang Wan, she gave it to me for no reason. This must be what father said, gift for no reason, either adultery or theft. Whatever, since she gave it, not taking it would be a waste."

Jiang Mianmian nods: "Ah ah." (That's true too)

Sister just keeps repeating herself in circles, not a single useful piece of information was received.

Jiang Mianmian listens anxiously.

As a result, when she turns her head again, hey, that little black ant has crawled up again, crawled to the edge of the wooden basin again, and it even strenuously pushed a leaf on top?

If you don't look closely, you'd think a leaf just happened to fall on the basin.

Jiang Mianmian watches as the little ant drags the leaf, one step, two steps, three steps forward, crawling to the spot she pushed it down before.

Hiss!

Does it think I'm playing with it?

She really does not want to play.

Or is it pushing the leaf over to thank her?

It's said ants eat leaves.

Jiang Mianmian does not know how to communicate with this little ant. If she also had antennae on her head that would be great, maybe touching tips would convey meaning.

Watching the little ant laboriously dragging the leaf is quite amusing.

She reaches out her hand, wanting to grab that leaf.

Then she sees the little ant thinking she wants to push it again. Before her fingers even get close, it tightly grabs the leaf and jumps down first.

Clutching the leaf, the little ant floats down slowly, like holding a parachute...float...float...
