After Marrying Him, the Ending Has Changed-Chapter 193 - : Only Er Ya
Chapter 193: Chapter 193: Only Er Ya
Hearing her childish babble, both Da Ya and Er Ya couldn’t help but laugh, “Laidi, schools only have exams in the middle and at the end of the term.”

Laidi blinked in confusion, not quite understanding, but said, “As long as there’s meat to eat, that’s fine by me.”
Yet Zhaodi, caressing her own dry hair, gravely promised, “In the future, I will make sure you can eat meat every day.”
“Zhaodi is truly a good sister.” Da Ya also touched Zhaodi’s hair sympathetically, as if to show understanding for her naivety about the hardships of life.
She didn’t mention that even city folks couldn’t afford to eat meat at every meal, let alone country people like themselves.
Er Ya pressed her lips together and silently took her textbook out the door to the big room next door.
No matter how much work she had during the day or how exhausted she was, she spent her nights consulting San Ya about anything she didn’t understand.
Jiang Mianmian always explained the problems to her carefully and patiently, interspersing useful knowledge points within the lessons in hopes of teaching her a bit more.
After about twenty minutes of explanation, Er Ya finally finished asking all her questions.
“Third Sister, thank you for teaching me all this,” she said, her face full of sincere gratitude.
Jiang Mianmian replied, “No need to thank me, Second Sister. Explaining these things to you also serves as a review of past knowledge for me.”
To be honest, she admired Er Ya’s persistence and resilience.
In the beginning, Da Ya and Er Ya studied together, but in the end, the only one who persisted and worked hard was Er Ya.
Jiang Mianmian doubted she herself could have persevered in the same way.
Therefore, she hoped that Er Ya would continue to persevere and resolved to offer as much help as possible, considering that education was Er Ya’s only chance to change her own destiny.
“Third Sister, you go on with your homework, I’ll head back now,” Er Ya said, not wanting to take any more of Jiang Mianmian’s time after asking her questions.
As Jiang Mianmian saw her about to leave, she remembered the fruit candies her father had bought for her in town that day and called out to her, “Second Sister, wait a moment.”
Jiang Mianmian ran to the cupboard, grabbed a handful of colorful fruit candies, and stuffed them into Er Ya’s hand, “Take these back for Da Ya and the others to share.”
“Third Sister, you should keep the candies for yourself.” Er Ya looked at the colorful candies in her hand, quite embarrassed.
She knew that such packaged fruit candies were expensive.
Every year during the New Year, their family would only buy some bulk, unwrapped candy because it was cheaper.
But even the bulk candy was a treat they sisters rarely enjoyed, while San Ya often gave her such nice sweets.
Moreover, the money for Zhaodi’s medical expenses and the rice from yesterday were all borrowed from the big house; taking such valuable candy now would be taking too much advantage.
“I still have a lot of them, you should take it and enjoy,” Jiang Mianmian insisted, and then she pushed Er Ya out of the room.
In those days, most people suffered from malnutrition, especially the girls from the second household.
They ate the least and worked the most at home. Being a woman herself, Jiang Mianmian felt deep sympathy for them.
In the past, she had been powerless to help because her own family was poor, but now that her family had come into a sum of money, she wanted to help them however she could.
Of course, this was all done with the consent of her parents, as long as it didn’t involve the high-end goods brought by Director Zhou.

Er Ya, holding her books and the candies, went back to her room and took out the candies, “Da Ya, Zhaodi, Laidi, these are the candies that San Ya gave us, two pieces each, come and get them.”
Upon hearing this, Laidi’s eyes immediately lit up: Third Sister had given them candy again.
She ran over, stumbling with excitement, extending her dark little hands waiting for Er Ya to share the candies with her.
