It was late at night, so Li Qin quickly found a room for Su Mei and her daughter.
Li Qin and her husband Wang Gang share a bedroom.
The youngest son is still small and sleeps in the same bed as Li Qin and her husband.
Er Ya's room has two beds and was previously occupied by Wang Ronghua, the eldest daughter of the Wang family.
After Wang Ronghua got married, that bed became empty.
It's used to store things for Er Ya.
Li Qin quickly tidied up and said to Su Mei, "Su Mei, you two should make do and sleep here. It's too late for me to bother you with tidying up."
Li Qin has always been a warm and enthusiastic person, even towards strangers.
But she didn't want to meddle in Su Mei and Xia Keke's business.
Giving them a place to stay for one night is the least we can do for them, mother and daughter.
Su Mei immediately expressed her gratitude, saying, "Thank you so much, sister-in-law. We are already very grateful that you took us in tonight."
Li Qin nodded.
Er Ya, who was in the next bed, was woken up by the noise. She sat up and looked at her mother.
"Mom, what are you doing so late at night?"
"This is none of your business, go to sleep."
Er Ya, half asleep, hummed in response and lay back down to sleep.
Su Mei quickly put her things down, and without even taking off her clothes, she got into bed fully clothed, telling Xia Keke to go to bed quickly as well.
After lying down, Xia Keke said with disgust, "What a lousy bed this is, it's rock hard and smells musty."
Su Mei's eyes showed a hint of dislike for her daughter.
"What's going on? You're still nitpicking. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have been kicked out by the Shen family. It's only one night, can't you just shut your mouth and stop talking nonsense?"
Xia Keke said, "Mom, what do you mean by that? I stood up for you, and you're looking down on me?"
"Okay, wait until I find my dad. If I choose to live with him, don't blame me."
After saying that, Xia Keke turned around and went to sleep, hugging her blanket.
Su Mei was left feeling lost and confused.
She thought about her past, her loving husband, and her gentle and lovely daughter. How did she suddenly become like this?
Su Mei thought about it all night but still couldn't figure out why.

Meanwhile, at the Shen family.
Shen Jichuan and Wen Qiao were also sitting on the bed inside the room, their eyes fixed on the child on the bed.
Da Bao was taken back to his room by Wen Qiao's mother.
The second and third babies are both asleep.
Only a small lamp on the bedside table was lit in the room.
Shen Jichuan said softly, "Go to sleep, don't overthink it. I've made everything clear to you. Crying won't help. All we can do now is try our best to raise the child well, and perhaps we can get treatment for the child in the future."
"The doctor said that as long as the child doesn't have a relapse, he's no different from a normal person."
Wen Qiao raised her eyes to look at Shen Jichuan.
But he asked, "You just said that doctors abroad might have the opportunity to treat her, right?"
When Wen Qiao's child was first born, she didn't even have much maternal love. She did have some, but not much.
Now, in my daily interactions with my child, especially during breastfeeding, I've developed this maternal love that revolves entirely around my child.
She is a mother, and since she gave birth to the child, she wants her to have a healthy body, rather than constantly worrying that the baby will die.
Shen Jichuan reassured her, "The doctor only said that it's possible."
