Chapter 97: Chapter 097: How about, You Call Me Sister
"Can this word be translated like this?"
Xu Nian’an followed along and felt that the gap between him and his little sister was not just slight, there were many professional words he had never seen, yet Xu Nian’an could translate them.
Before, he only thought his little sister was smart and had especially good academic performance, but now, Xu Nian’an felt that he had underestimated his little sister before.
Xu Nianhua touched her nose, faced Xu Nian’an’s scrutinizing gaze, cleared her throat, and said, "Big brother, maybe it’s because I used to not like going anywhere else, just liked looking at dictionaries, so I know more words."
"So that’s how it is." Xu Nian’an didn’t doubt it, nor did he think of anything else, he said, "No wonder you used to always like to go to the library, I used to say, there aren’t many books in the library and yet you were always holding a dictionary."
"It’s quiet there."
Xu Nianhua quietly sighed with relief, she was thankful that she indeed used to like going to the library to read books, liking dictionaries, otherwise she wouldn’t know how to explain now.
"What was your favorite book to read in the library?" Xu Nian’an felt that Xu Nianhua was doing very well, not only versed in book knowledge, but also in other knowledge.
Xu Nianhua blinked and said, "Foreign classics, reading more classics can also improve our sense of language and expand our vocabulary."
"Then, can you understand them?" Xu Nian’an furrowed his brow, he could barely make sense of what the teacher taught, let alone read foreign classics.
"Big brother, learning a foreign language is not only about reading but also about listening and reading more; that way, our foreign language grades can improve," Xu Nianhua completely shifted the topic, and by the time she circled back to the contract, Xu Nian’an had completely stopped continuing that discussion about why she knew more languages than him.
The siblings were translating together, Xu Nianhua consciously wanted to train Xu Nian’an, therefore many times, even though she already knew in her heart how to translate, she still asked Xu Nian’an.
"Nian’an, it’s very late, time to sleep."
Xu Nianji was yawning, now there was no electricity, they usually used kerosene lamps at night, and if there was nothing else, they just sat in the dark in the yard. At night there weren’t many activities, the family would sit together and chat, and when they felt sleepy, they went back to their rooms to sleep early.
"Right away."
Xu Nian’an replied loudly, rubbing his aching neck, and looking at the small section they had translated, he couldn’t help saying, "Little sister, why do I feel like you’re the older one and I’m the younger one?"
There were many things he didn’t understand, but Xu Nianhua seemed calm and even had a teacher-like demeanor.
"How about you call me ’older sister’ once?" Xu Nianhua joked, in her past life, she had been a training teacher for many years and was a pioneer in translation.
This contract, if she translated it seriously, she could finish it in one day and spend another day proofreading to ensure there were no mistakes.
But now that big brother was with her, Xu Nianhua naturally wanted to give him a hand.
"Wishful thinking!"
Xu Nian’an raised his hand and knocked on her forehead, glaring at her, he said, "I’m your big brother, you just be the little sister obediently. Once big brother makes money, I’ll buy you candy."
Xu Nian’an spoke as if he was pacifying a three-year-old child, Xu Nianhua covered her knocked forehead, the corners of her mouth involuntarily twitching.
She had long passed the age of eating candy, had she not?
"Let’s pick this up tomorrow, don’t look at it anymore today, it’s bad for your eyes."
Xu Nian’an carefully put away the contract, fearing that Xu Nianhua would be unwilling to sleep, only thinking about translating the contract, and worried that she would get up too early tomorrow.
