However, she didn’t know why even if they stood close to him, Sanfu still didn’t pay attention to her and Xue Yan. He was still focused on pushing the mill, letting the stone mill grind the soaked early rice into rice flour.
“Sanfu!” Xue Yan shouted and Jiang Yue followed suit.
Sanfu didn’t respond, but he stopped pushing the mill. He let go and stood up, looking at her and Xue Yan without any expression.
Sanfu was really too tall, and she was standing too close to Xue Yan, especially now that she was only a little girl, she had to raise her head really high to see Sanfu’s face.
She couldn’t help but want to take a few steps back to look at his face again.
At this time, Sanfu stretched out his arms, one hand carrying the little her and the other carrying Xue Yan.
She subconsciously wanted to fight back in self-defense, but Xue Yan stopped her with a look.
At the same time, she and Xue Yan were placed on the bench by Sanfu. She finally understood his meaning.
She and Xue Yan didn’t have to raise their heads so hard. Even though they still had to tilt their heads, this meant that Sanfu didn’t have to lower his head to look at them.
Xue Sanfu placed his youngest brother and sister on a stool before turning to Jiang Yue. “Jiang Yue?”
He had been home for more than four hours. During that time, his family had told him everything that had happened during the two months he had been working for others.
“Yes.” Jiang Yue said.
Xue Sanfu nodded, then turned to Xue Yan, “Are you sure you won’t regret this in the future?”
Knowing that Sanfu was asking about his lack of education, Xue Yan nodded, “Yes, I’m sure.”
“Alright.” Xue Sanfu patted his youngest brother and sister’s heads before pulling them down from the stool. “Go and play.”
After he finished speaking, he concentrated on holding the rod and started to push the stone mill again. He continued grinding the unfinished early rice.
Jiang Yue looked at Xue Yan. Xue Yan didn’t rush to say anything, but took a cloth and wiped the bench he and Jiang Yue were standing on. Then, he walked to the side and spoke, “Sanfu doesn’t like to talk much.”
It was not that he did not like to talk, but he was not good with words. He rarely spoke long sentences, which made people assume that he did not like to talk.
It was true.
“Sanfu is the one who talks the least in the family,” Xue Yan added after a pause.
Hearing this, Jiang Yue did not have to ask any more questions. She roughly knew what kind of personality Sanfu had. He didn’t like to talk, looked cold, wasn’t very sociable, had a bad temper, was impulsive, and was straightforward. That should be it.
The moment the sky turned dark, they were called to have dinner.
Previously, only Xue Dafu, Liu Guixia, Xue Yifu, and Xue Erfu would sit around the table during dinner. Now that Xue Sanfu was back, regardless of age or gender, just his size alone was enough to make him sit at the table.
At the table, Xue Dafu and the others were all talking. Only Xue Sanfu didn’t speak. He would only reply if someone spoke to him. It was as if he didn’t know how to take the initiative to speak.
Jiang Yue was still sitting on her small stool. There was a stool in front of her, and her small rice bowl was on the stool. However, she had pork ribs in her small bowl today.
Her family knew that she liked to eat pork ribs, so they had specially asked Sifu to buy them when he came back from work.
