Chu Yue nodded, "I haven't seen Yuan Bao for a few days, and I missed him a lot, so I went to pick him up from school."
Lu Yuanbao was standing next to Chu Yue. After hearing this, he raised his head with a proud look on his little face, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose into a smile.
Song Hongmei looked at them, one big and one small, and she didn't expect that Chu Yue, at such a young age, could treat an adopted child as her own and be as close to her as mother and son. She felt deeply moved.
"You and your son have such a good relationship. It's Captain Lu's blessing." Song Hongmei said with emotion, and pulled Fang Xiuli over, "Xiu Li, come here, I'll introduce you to each other--"
Song Hongmei didn't know what had happened in the school, nor did she know about Fang Xiuli's hostility towards Chu Yue. She wanted to introduce the two beautiful girls to each other so that they could get along well and help each other in the future.
As Song Hongmei finished her words, a hint of embarrassment flashed across Fang Xiuli's face. She stood there, not knowing whether to go over or leave, feeling awkward and uneasy.
After all, no matter how willful she was, she didn't dare to make a scene in front of Song Hongmei.
At the same time.
Chu Yue held Lu Yuanbao's hand and took several steps back, putting some distance between herself and Fang Xiuli.
Song Hongmei was puzzled, "Ayue, what are you doing?"
"Sister Song, Comrade Fang and I have met each other and we can be considered acquainted. Comrade Fang said that I had been in contact with a patient with chicken plague and was carrying the virus. She didn't want to get too close to me, for fear that I would pass the virus to her." Chu Yue said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
Upon hearing this, Song Hongmei's expression instantly became gloomy and solemn.
Fang Xiuli stamped her feet in frustration, pointed her finger at Chu Yue and asked loudly, "Chu Yue, how dare you complain! This is something only sinister people would do!"
"Complain?" Chu Yue sneered. "I'm just stating the facts. How can that be considered a complaint? Aren't these the words you just said to me? Which word did I say wrong? How did I misinterpret your meaning? Now you and I are here, and Sister Song is here too. You can explain it right now."
"I...I...I..." Fang Xiuli stammered several times after being confronted by Chu Yue. She stared at Chu Yue with angry eyes, but could not say anything to defend herself. In anger, she could only keep accusing Jiang Nian, "You have the virus. What's wrong with me not wanting to spread the virus?"
"Xiu Li, according to what you said, I also have the fowl plague virus. We shouldn't meet, let alone talk!" Song Hongmei looked at Fang Xiu Li with displeasure.
Fang Xiuli argued, "Sister Song, you are you and she is she, how can you be the same!"
"Ayue and I are no different. In fact, Ayue has done more than me. She is the one who treats and saves people these days, she is the one who proposes solutions, and she is the one who protects everyone. Each of us should be grateful for Ayue's efforts. Xiuli, I am so disappointed that you said this."
Song Hongmei had never spoken so harshly before, let alone to a junior whom she loved so much.
The disappointment in her eyes was obvious.
Fang Xiuli couldn't bear Song Hongmei's gaze, and hated Chu Yue's instigation even more.
"Chu Yue! It's not enough that you drove He Meijiao away, now you want to sow discord between you and Sister Song. You have such a vicious heart! Don't think you are always pretending. One day I will catch you by surprise and let everyone see your true face. Humph!"
Fang Xiuli turned her head away heavily and left with grievance and anger.
"Beautiful... Beautiful..."
No matter how Song Hongmei called her name, Fang Xiuli just didn't look back.
"Ah..." Song Hongmei sighed, adjusted her mood, and had to turn back to comfort Chu Yue, "Ah Yue, Xiu Li is actually a good child. I want to apologize to you on her behalf for what happened today. As for... Comrade He's matter, she doesn't know the inside story. I will talk to her another day."
"Sister Song, she is she and you are you. You don't have to apologize on her behalf. Besides, it's just such a small matter and I don't care at all."
Chu Yue's counterattack directly angered Fang Xiuli and she left, which could be considered as revenge.
She said goodbye to Song Hongmei and continued walking into the compound.
Chen Fengying came over and whispered, "Sister Chu, this is the first time I see Fang Xiuli get humiliated. You're the first one, you're amazing!"
Secretly, she gave Chu Yue a thumbs up.
Wang Xiulan followed by and thought silently that it was a good thing that she did not go along with He Meijiao, otherwise if Chu Yue treated her the same way, she would not be able to bear it!
In the blink of an eye.
Chu Yue walked to the gate of her yard and said goodbye to her two sisters-in-law.
"...Sister Wang." She suddenly called Wang Xiulan, "I'll be at home at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning. You can come and see me to take your pulse."
Wang Xiulan was stunned, her face was motionless with shock, as if she was in a daze.
Chen Fengying bumped her arm and said, "Sister Chu took the initiative to check your body, why don't you react at all?"
It was not that Wang Xiulan had no reaction. It was clearly because the surprise came too suddenly. Even though her heart was beating fast, the expression on her face was a beat slower.
After she reacted, the corners of her mouth curled up high and she couldn't suppress her joy.
"Okay... eight o'clock! I remember! I will definitely come at eight o'clock tomorrow! Sister Chu, thank you! Thank you so much! Thank you so much!"
Chu Yue is a person who clearly distinguishes between gratitude and resentment. Today, Wang Xiulan was able to stand by her despite the hostility of Fang Xiuli and everyone else. Whether it was true or false, she was willing to appreciate this kindness.
Chu Yue simply said what Wang Xiulan had been too embarrassed to say.
Wang Xiulan was so excited that she almost cried, and was later pulled away by Chen Fengying.
"Okay, let's go inside."
Chu Yue touched Lu Yuanbao's head, and they both pushed the door open and walked in.
After being away from home for seven days, she returned home.
Chu Yue saw that everything was still in order, just like when she left a week ago. The yard was tidy, wild pheasants were pecking at insects in the corner, and clothes were hung on the clothesline to dry, fluttering in the wind.
The only difference is that in the vegetable patch that Chu Yue and Lu Yuanbao have worked so hard to cultivate, green seedlings have already sprouted, and it will soon become lush and green.
"Yuanbao, are you taking care of all these?"
"Well, every morning after I wash my face and brush my teeth, I water the vegetable garden and tie up the chickens so that the growing seedlings won't be eaten by the chickens." Lu Yuanbao said proudly, his eyes sparkling, silently asking Chu Yue for praise.
"Our Yuanbao is awesome!" Chu Yue not only praised him, but also said, "Such an awesome child deserves a gift! Yuanbao, do you want a gift?"
Lu Yuanbao's eyes brightened, his face full of yearning, but he forced himself to calm down, nodded slowly and said, "I want it!"
Since he met Chu Yue, he has received so many gifts. Eggs are gifts, scallion pancakes are gifts, hats and scarves are gifts, candied haws are gifts, and piggy banks are gifts.
So many...
For the first time, Lu Yuanbao wanted to be a greedy child. He wanted everything Chu Yue gave him!
