Chapter 73
This grassland trip lasted for nearly half a month. Xue Mi ate countless beef, mutton and dairy products cooked in various ways. She was so full that she felt she wouldn't want to eat meat for a long time.
The eldest aunt and uncle's faces also became much rosier, and they were in better spirits, especially the eldest aunt, who had a loud voice to begin with, and she learned a loud and clear voice from the herdsmen on the grassland. The eldest uncle immediately became the first victim. It is estimated that after they return, Xiao Tao will most likely become the second innocent victim. Xue Mi is happy to hear this. Apart from being a happy spectator, she can only bring her more fresh meat and milk lumps to compensate her sister's wounded heart.
That’s right, Xue Mi did use a private plane to bring back to S City a large amount of freshly slaughtered beef and mutton, as well as several boxes of the most authentic local fresh dairy products.
Because the order placed by the rich woman was so large, some local herdsmen were curious and asked whether this group of people specialized in the meat wholesale business and whether there was a chance for them to have long-term cooperation and become their long-term supplier.
The main thing is that the customers this time are very generous. As long as the quality is good, the price they offer will definitely make people smile, allowing the local herdsmen to have another good New Year.
Xue Mi doesn't have any idea about entering the food industry for the time being, but she is still quite interested in finding New Year's goods for her company's employees. However, there is no rush. She has to wait until this batch is brought back and see the employees' feedback before deciding whether to distribute it in the future.
After all, she had also considered that dairy products were fine, and these fresh beef and mutton might be a surprise for people who were used to cooking, but for those employees who ate in the cafeteria or outside all day long, it might be a shock.
After all, although there are many recipes for this thing online, there are actually not as many people who can actually make it as you might imagine.
Although Xue Mi has already thought of a solution, she still has to go back and try it out to see if it works.
Therefore, several tons of chilled beef and mutton were brought back to City S on a private jet worth hundreds of millions of dollars. When the cargo was being unloaded from the plane, it attracted the attention of airport staff.
At first, they were wondering what kind of good thing it could be that could be pulled by a rich man's private jet.
Unexpectedly, it was beef and mutton that had just been slaughtered and still had fresh blood.
Wow, it’s really good stuff!
Such fresh meat, just thinking about the taste of it stewed in a big pot, everyone can't help but swallow their saliva.
My aunt and uncle returned to the civil servants' community with a happy face in the luxury car arranged by Xue Mi.
Many neighbors here know that these two people have raised a promising and grateful child, and their lives are really comfortable now.
Haven't you seen that child arranging for the two elders to go out and play every few days? From time to time, he would bring over various skin care products or fruit snacks that are obviously not cheap. Even when they go out, they are often picked up and dropped off in luxury cars, which makes people envious.
That day, I saw the couple whom I hadn't seen for a long time. They got out of their luxury car, carrying large and small bags of things, with smiles on their faces. An old neighbor came over to say hello and said with a smile that he hadn't seen them for several days, and wondered where the old couple had gone to enjoy themselves.
The eldest aunt smiled modestly: "We didn't go far. We just stayed on the grassland for two days to see something new."
The neighbor looked envious and said, "That's great. You two are enjoying your life now. Who would have thought that the quiet little girl back then would have such a great future."
The eldest aunt laughed and said, "It is our blessing to have a filial child."
Old neighbors who have lived here for some years all know that the couple brought back a skinny little girl from outside. She looked silent and didn't like to talk much. She lived here for several years and only moved out when she was in boarding school.
At that time, some people gossiped and guessed that the child was Lao Lin’s illegitimate daughter. Later, they found out that she was actually the child of Lao Xue’s relative. Some people also said that Lao Xue was a demon who wanted to take a child like this home, and that bringing such a child home would only be asking for trouble!
Some people even went to Xiaotao to gossip, saying that there was a new child in the family and she would become the unfavored one, and her parents' love would have to be shared with outsiders, and she would be pitiful in the future.
Fortunately, Xiao Tao has a carefree personality. Although she is unhappy to hear what these people say, she can be completely coaxed into submission with just a little candy.
Later, I heard that Sister Xue Mi had never been spoiled since she was a child. The little girl struggled for a long time before she reluctantly held her little candy box and secretly stuffed it into Xue Mi's arms, and whispered to her: "Sister, don't be sad. In the future, my parents will spoil you like they spoil me and my brother, and you won't be afraid."
Xue Mi couldn't describe the feeling at that time, she only remembered that the candy she ate that time was the sweetest she had ever tasted in her life.
Anyway, in Xue Mi's opinion, the blessings of her aunt, uncle, and Xiao Tao were what they deserved.
But now, looking at the pile of fresh meat her parents brought back, it was Xiaotao's turn to worry.
"So many! How can the refrigerator hold them all? Aren't you tired bringing so much back?" she asked her parents speechlessly.
"Why are you so tired? We were picked up by car and dropped off at our doorstep. The driver even helped us move into the house. They didn't even ask your dad to help," the eldest aunt put her hands on her hips and directed her husband, daughter and son-in-law, "You can take some and send it to Lao Xu and Lao Wang next door. They also sent us some things when they came back from their trip. This time they can just give them back."
"As for your brother, send a batch to him quickly. There are ice cubes in the foam boxes, so they shouldn't go bad in a short time." She picked out two boxes for her son who was far away, and asked her daughter to contact the courier company as soon as possible.
"Why rush? My brother and his friends are coming back next month, so we can let them take the things back with us then," Xiao Tao said.
"You lazy girl, how can frozen meat and fresh meat be the same? The taste is so different." The eldest aunt slapped Xiao Tao hard.
Ma Wei, the son-in-law next to him, immediately understood the situation and took out his mobile phone, saying that he would call the courier right away, and maybe the package would be delivered tomorrow.
"By the way, I have also prepared two boxes for your parents. We can send them together. Remember to send the fastest one. After all, the distance is far, and I don’t know how many days it will take to arrive." The eldest aunt instructed her son-in-law again.
Ma Wei grinned and thanked his mother-in-law, but his wife ended up disliking him for being too servile.
"It's better to be a lackey than to be lazy," the eldest aunt tapped her daughter's forehead, "By the way, Xiaohuan and Dudu will come this time too, right? They didn't come back during the Chinese New Year last year, and I haven't seen the children for almost two years. I don't know how much they have grown. And you, damn girl, when will you give me another little grandson?"
As soon as this topic was brought up, Xiao Tao immediately slipped away: "Just go and hug that one. My brother's child is cuter. The one I give birth to will definitely look like me and will definitely not be cute at all."
"Maybe he's like me." Ma Wei said innocently on the side.
Xiao Tao rolled her eyes at him: "That's even less cute!"
————
He Min glanced at her watch and realized it was almost time to get off work. She quickly organized the reports in front of her, saved all the data she had worked on today, turned off the computer and the power, closed the office windows, and finally punched in to leave the office.
That’s right, other companies care about clocking in, but at Xifeng Media, they pay more attention to clocking out. Sometimes it’s okay to forget to clock in, but if you forget to clock out, the leader may call you to ask what happened.
In addition to having a lot of holidays here, the flexible working system has also been truly implemented.
Some companies have a flexible working system, which means that the working hours are extremely flexible. You can come to work at irregular times, and you can't get off work at regular times. In the final analysis, all your rest time is taken up in a legitimate way, and you can't say anything about it.
Xifeng Media is different. Even if it implements flexible working hours, it firmly implements the 8-hour work system and will never take up even half a minute of employees' rest time.
For example, He Min, because she needs to pick up and drop off her daughter, she comes to work an hour earlier every day, so she can also leave work an hour earlier and clock out at 4:30, just in time to pick up her daughter at the school gate. After picking her up, she can even rush back to the company with the child to have dinner.
Some people who prefer to sleep in may simply choose to come to work an hour later and leave work an hour later, so they can avoid the peak working hours and go home leisurely.
However, those who choose to leave work late often forget to rush to the cafeteria for meals - because the cafeteria also closes on time and never delays.
Of course, not every position can achieve flexible working hours. For example, some positions that need to communicate with superiors and subordinates can only follow the statutory working hours. Unlike a simple file management position like He Min, the time is easier to adjust.
When she walked into the elevator, she happened to meet a young girl who had recently joined the company. Because the two of them chose similar working hours, they often met at the stairs and occasionally chatted for a few words, and gradually became familiar with each other.
The girl had an oval face, was very pretty and had a good figure. It was said that she worked part-time as a DJ in a bar at night, so she chose to leave work so early.
Seeing He Min, the girl greeted her with a smile, then glanced at the time and couldn't help but sigh, "It's great to be able to work in our company. Some of my classmates are said to have to work overtime until 9 or 10 pm, and they don't even get a penny of overtime pay. I heard that I can get off work so early, and I'm almost envious."
The salary at Xifeng Media is not high, but food and accommodation are provided, and as for side jobs outside of working hours, as long as it does not affect work, they do not interfere much.
The girl's part-time job as a DJ only takes two hours a day, which is not particularly stable, but the pay is good and it is not tiring. Adding up both salaries, the girl can make almost ten thousand yuan a month, and her other expenses are few, so she lives a much more comfortable life than her peers.
She didn't even have the embarrassment to tell her classmates all about the company's benefits. Just the time after get off work had already aroused the envy of many of them. If they knew that she had so much rest time, could live in a free dormitory with conditions comparable to an apartment, and could eat in a restaurant with super delicious food, they would probably be so jealous that they would tear her to pieces.
The girl opened her phone with a smile, ready to take a look at the classmates group, but unexpectedly found that 99+ messages had appeared in the company group.
According to company regulations, one does not need to pay attention to the company's group messages after get off work, but the girl still habitually clicked in to take a look. Unexpectedly, it was another message distributing welfare supplies.
This is also something that makes He Min quite emotional.
She still remembers that when she was a child, during the holidays, her parents' unit would distribute various supplies for the holidays, which were packed in baskets on the car, and they would happily carry them home. It was an indescribable feeling.
By the time she started working, this kind of treatment no longer seemed to be the norm, especially in those private companies with average performance, where giving out two mooncakes, a shopping card, or a red envelope of a few hundred yuan at the end of the year was already considered a very good welfare benefit.
Who would have thought that a small company like Xifeng Media could distribute supplies every month!
Although the things distributed are not particularly expensive, they are basically very practical. For example, in the spring when pollen is rampant, a box of professional anti-pollen masks and various protective supplies will be distributed. The apartment dormitories will also specially purchase a batch of flower soil and anthers for employees who like to grow flowers. If needed, you can apply directly to the dormitory management, all free of charge.
When the weather is hot in the summer, in addition to high temperature subsidies, female employees also receive special sun protection subsidies. The amount is not much each month, only 60 yuan, but it feels really good to have it in your hands.
In addition to giving each employee a set of cold-proof suits including hats, scarves and gloves, the winter low-temperature subsidy also includes 150 yuan for clothing expenses, so that employees can choose their own cotton clothes or coats. Of course, if they don't need winter clothes and want to buy summer skirts, that's fine too. Anyway, as long as it's clothing, shoes and hats, the finance department will reimburse you, which is extremely convenient.
The company also frequently purchases large quantities of various fruits, which are also distributed for free. Having worked in the company for so long, He Min rarely needs to buy fruit, except when her daughter occasionally goes to the fruit shop to pick a few fruits out of craving for food. The ones distributed by the company are enough for her to eat.
Hearing from her colleagues that supplies were going to be distributed in the group again, she clicked on it out of curiosity, only to find that this time what was distributed was beef and mutton, which the boss had just brought from the grassland and was extremely fresh.
He Min immediately smiled happily. Her daughter was craving for mutton a few days ago. What a coincidence!
But the young female colleague next to her couldn't help but look sad.
She lives in the company dormitory and every day she either eats in the cafeteria or orders fat-reducing meals outside. She hasn't even bought all the pots and pans, so how can she cook for herself?
"Don't worry," the attentive He Min comforted his colleague, "Didn't you see what's being said in the group? If you want fresh meat, you can go to the canteen's cold storage today or tomorrow to get it. If you find it inconvenient to make it yourself, you can also ask the canteen to make it for you, either braised meat or dried meat. It's just that you have to wait two days to get it, but it's the same, and it's still convenient."
You can get 20 kilograms of fresh meat, but only 12 kilograms of processed meat because of shrinkage. However, considering the lightness and convenience, even though He Min sometimes cooks in the apartment, he does not hesitate to choose 10 kilograms of fresh beef brisket, 3 kilograms of braised beef and 3 kilograms of dried meat.
My daughter's favorite dish is beef brisket stewed with tomatoes and potatoes. It's a big pot of steaming hot food, fragrant and tender. Pour the thick soup over the rice, and my daughter, who has always had a poor appetite, can eat two large bowls of white rice in a row.
As for the braised beef, slice it and drizzle it with ginger and garlic juice, and it will be a great cold dish.
There is also beef jerky, which is of course a snack for the mother and daughter. It is much cleaner and more hygienic than those snacks bought in supermarkets outside.
The other young female colleague was different. She chose all beef jerky, which is just right for grinding her teeth while watching TV series. It also doesn’t make her fat. It’s perfect.
Other companies under Xue Mi's name also received the same treatment. In the past two days, several company groups were all caught up in the excitement brought by the delicious meat. Some people even started sharing various cooking recipes and short videos. They were extremely happy.
Xue Mi's aunt has been busy these past two days distributing the local specialties she brought back, and lighting a high fire to stew the meat that could not be frozen in the refrigerator so that she could keep it and eat it slowly.
Xiao Tao came back from get off work and visited again, asking if she needed any help. Unexpectedly, her mother, who had been so busy in the past two days and had been bossing the family around, looked unusually quiet today. She sat alone on the sofa, as if she was a little dazed.
When I asked her father, I found out that Xue Mijie's father, her mother's younger brother, fell into the river and drowned when he was returning home late at night because he was drunk.
Xiaotao's first reaction was to wonder if her sister knew about this.
But thinking about her sister's reaction, she was most likely not concerned about this nominal adoptive father at all, so she calmed down instantly.
Xiaotao has disliked her uncle since she was a child, including his wife and her second cousin who was always sarcastic.
But after all, death is the greatest thing, and since the person is gone, she couldn't say anything. She just walked over and hugged her mother.
Her mother sighed deeply, "Actually, when I was little, I didn't like this brother at all. He was not smart and loved to get into trouble. He finally found a smart and beautiful wife, but in the end he couldn't even keep her. He's as stupid as a pig."
Xiao Tao: ...The old lady’s words are much more poisonous than mine!
"But he is my brother after all," the old lady sighed again, "I still feel sad when I hear that he has died. Oh, by the way, please book me a high-speed rail ticket to W Province C City, that town... Never mind, I can't remember the name. I'll send you the name later. Please book two tickets for me and your father. We'll leave tomorrow. After all, he is my brother. It wouldn't be nice for him to die out there like this. I'll go take care of his funeral and come back in a few days."
Although the old lady's face showed sadness, she was generally calm.
Xiao Tao felt that her mother did not look like she was seriously shocked, so she asked cautiously, "What about Sister Xue Mi..."
"You can say whatever you want, but the child probably won't care too much about it. It's all bad fate. The idiot broke the bond between him and his child. Who can he blame?" The old lady sighed again, "It's a pity that the bond between the siblings hasn't been broken. We still have to take care of the beginning and the end."
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiao Tao immediately said, "That's right, it's all fate. For example, between me and my child, if fate doesn't come, there's nothing we can do."
The old lady, who was originally a little sad and depressed, suddenly got angry, picked up anything nearby, and hit her daughter with it: "How dare you say that! I don't know you, you just want to be lazy! Don't think I don't know about the contraceptive measures you have come up with. You are almost an expert in contraception!"
Under the old lady's powerful attack, Xiao Tao had nowhere to hide and could only run away with her head covered, looking extremely embarrassed.
Xiao Tao felt that her mother was really mysterious. Sometimes she seemed quite conservative, and sometimes she seemed very open-minded. She was so polar opposites that it was hard to tell her pulse.
The eldest aunt's family began to be in chaos again, and Xue Mi also heard the news of Xue Changdong's death from her subordinates.
But she really didn't feel anything. It was just like the feeling of hearing about the death of a stranger. She just nodded, said she understood, and then continued doing what she had to do, without any ripples in her heart.
Xue Mi once wondered if she was really cold-blooded, or if it was just like what some people said, once people become extremely rich, their worldviews are prone to unexpected distortions.
But when she received Xiaotao's call, she smiled the first time, thinking that if anything happened to her aunt's family, she would definitely not be so calm.
So in the end, it was because she didn't think that man had anything to do with her at all.
Facing Xiao Tao's careful probing, she couldn't help but laugh: "I've heard about this. How is your aunt? Is she particularly sad?"
"That's not a big deal," Xiao Tao immediately relaxed after hearing her sister's tone of voice, "The old lady has a strong sense of responsibility. She and my dad are going to go there tomorrow to take care of the funeral affairs."
Xue Mi nodded: "I can't say anything about this matter. You comfort your aunt. I will send someone to go with her to handle this matter, so that she and her uncle won't be too tired."
"Okay, I'll tell my mom later." Xiao Tao said happily, without even asking whether Xue Mi would go over.
Her mother might think that it would be better if Xue Mi could step in to deal with this matter, but Xiao Tao felt that if she were to encounter so many troubles, she would definitely be like her sister and not care about that bastard, or whether he lived or died.
Besides, Xue Changdong has more than one daughter. If we really talk about a proper father-daughter relationship, Xue Rui is his only daughter. What does she have to do with her sister Xue Mi!
In fact, Xue Rui and her mother also learned about Xue Changdong's death, but after hearing that the old man had spent most of his money on drinking and the remaining property was not even enough for funeral expenses, they were not interested in finding out more.
They are not well-off now, so how can they have spare money to collect the body of that old man!
Shao Zhaoyun spat in the air, thinking that she had wasted all these years on a dog.
Xue Rui was actually a little sad. After all, her father was not bad to her at times. However, considering that she had finally found a decent job and had no time to ask for leave, she completely gave up the idea of making the trip and pretended not to know.
It's a pity that such a person who thought he was so awesome, in the end only his sister and brother-in-law came to his funeral. I wonder if he would regret his decision if he knew about this.
Just after sending her own brother away and returning home, before she even had time to warm up her seat, Xiao Tao suddenly came over with small steps, took her mother's arm, and whispered, "Mom, there's something I only found out about these past two days. I'm telling you, don't be anxious."
The old lady looked at her daughter's mysterious expression and said impatiently: "What's the matter? Don't worry, I have a good attitude and I won't be anxious about anything."
"It's just...Dudu has some health problems. My brother brought the child here this time actually to get treatment." Xiao Tao said hesitantly.
"What?! What's wrong with Dudu?!" The old lady stood up excitedly, but sat back down staggeringly because of dizziness.
"I told you not to worry, but I was afraid that you would worry, so my brother didn't dare to tell you." Xiao Tao sighed, "It's similar to my brother's situation back then, but it was discovered early and he has been receiving treatment. This time, he came here because he heard that there is an expert in S City who is particularly good at treating this disease."
Only then did Xiao Tao realize that the reason her sister-in-law didn't come when she got married last time was to take care of her sick child.
The old lady couldn't help but shook her head and sighed: "Tell me what your brother did about this matter. Why didn't he tell his family earlier? Everyone can think of a solution together, which is better than him worrying about it alone."
My uncle and aunt are both civil servants and employees of a company. Logically, they were not allowed to have a second child back then. The reason why Xiaotao was able to be born was mainly because her brother had a strange disease, which was said to be some genetic disease and was very difficult to cure. Although the disease was controlled that year, her brother still has sequelae and walks with a limp and cannot walk fast.
When my brother and sister-in-law got married, they went to have their genes checked to make sure the chance of inheriting the disease was very small before having a child. But they didn't expect that they couldn't avoid it and still got the disease.
The old lady couldn't help but worry: "How is Dudu's condition? Is it serious? How is the treatment effect? I still have the contact information of the doctor who treated your brother. Do you want to ask?"
Xiao Tao quickly comforted her mother: "My brother has been taking Dudu to treatment, and with advanced technology nowadays, there will definitely be no problem."
The old lady sighed again, her head still feeling dizzy and buzzing.
"Dudu is only ten years old. Tell me what has happened, one after another, it makes people feel sad." To the old lady, even the news of her brother's death was not such a big blow.
Recalling the pain she had to go through while taking her eldest son to seek medical treatment everywhere, the old lady felt sad just thinking about it.
"My brother is really too taciturn. By the way, you can also ask my sister about this. She is very capable and has many connections. Maybe she can come up with a solution." Xiao Tao said.
"Yes, yes, yes, go ask your sister!" the old lady immediately responded.
Xue Mi was taking a bath when she received the call. She was shocked when she heard Xiao Tao's cry for help.
The last time she met Xiaotao's brother Lin Zhifeng, the other party didn't reveal a single word. Who would have thought that their family would encounter such a big thing!
"Don't worry, aunt. I'll ask for you first. Maybe it's not serious." Xue Mi comforted the panicked girl.
When she came to her aunt's house, her cousin's treatment had basically been completed. According to the doctor, the effect was unexpectedly good. Except for some sequelae in motor function, he was basically the same as a normal person.
Maybe Dudu is in the same situation as his cousin.
Although the treatment is certainly time-consuming, as long as the results are good, it is not as serious as you think.
On the running high-speed train, Zhuo hugged her son and watched her husband busying around, and couldn't help but sigh again.
The two were in a free love relationship. Zhuo Huan had just started working when she met Lin Zhifeng. Although this man was serious, he had a gentle and polite personality. Most importantly, he was very serious and responsible in his work, which easily attracted her.
Although Lin Zhifeng confessed to her about his health problems and concerns about having offspring before confirming their relationship, Zhuo Huan didn't care much about it at that time, and even thought that a DINK family sounded pretty good.
However, after they got married, their ideas slowly changed. They went to the hospital for a pre-pregnancy check-up and determined that the chance of their child inheriting the disease was less than 1‰. Thinking that with such a low chance, it would not be their turn anyway, they had Dudu.
Zhuo Huan suffered a lot during her pregnancy, but when she held the newborn baby in her hands, she felt that all the suffering was worth it.
The soft and tender little baby is as gentle as an angel. Every time her little mouth opens and closes, the motherly love in her heart bursts out instantly.
It is not an easy task to carefully raise a child, but perhaps out of their instinctive rewarding nature, the couple still feel endless happiness in this kind of care.
It was not until Dudu was nine years old and fell down for no reason during a physical education class that a cloud of uneasiness began to hang over this happy little family.
From then on, the couple's daily routine was to run between the company, home and the hospital. In order not to worry the elderly, the couple did not tell either side. However, as the child's condition worsened, they finally could not hide it anymore.
My husband was a lucky man back then. Although he had a genetic disease that was difficult to treat, his condition was mild and the treatment was effective. Not only did he control his condition, but he also did not leave any unacceptable sequelae.
Unfortunately, Dudu obviously didn’t have this luck.
From the beginning of the disease, his condition was obviously more serious than his father's, and his sensitivity to drugs was much worse.
After more than half a year of treatment, the doctor said the situation was not optimistic and suggested that they make preparations in advance. However, the couple was unwilling to give up and decided to come to S City to find a nationally famous expert in gene therapy and give it another try.
Because he was going to S City, he couldn't keep it a secret from his family anymore, so Lin Zhifeng could only reveal it to his sister Xiaotao first and ask her to tell the family about Dudu's situation in a tactful way.
Unfortunately, Lin Zhifeng still didn't understand his sister well enough. After all, this girl didn't know how to be tactful. When she got emotional, she almost scared her mother into the hospital.
After receiving the call from his sister admitting his mistake, what else could Lin Zhifeng do? He could only sigh, feeling helpless.
"By the way, Sister Xue Mi said she knows the expert you are looking for. She will pick you up at the station later. I will go with her, and we will go to the hospital together." Xiao Tao finally brought good news.
When Xue Mi came to their house, Lin Zhifeng was already boarding at school, so his relationship with her had always been distant. Unlike Xiao Tao, she almost wanted to abandon her biological brother and completely become Xue Mi's little tail.
However, he had a pretty good impression of Xue Mi. He thought this girl was neither humble nor overbearing, and had a sense of stability that was not influenced by the outside world. To be honest, if he met such a terrible family, he might not perform as well as this cousin who was several years younger than him.
Later, he went to work in another province and had even fewer opportunities to interact with Xue Mi. He rarely met her even during the New Year. His mother told him that it was because that extremely wicked family did not want Xue Mi to come back for the New Year. They even thought that she was too close to his mother and was trying to fight for the inheritance in the future. This annoyed his mother several times and even made a scene at home. As a result, the little girl was forced to spend the New Year alone in another place.
Every time he talked about this, his mother couldn't help but sigh: "What a sin! Sooner or later, you will get retribution for doing this!"
Finally, retribution really came.
Lin Zhifeng had heard before that Xue Mi inherited a fortune from her biological mother and suddenly became a wealthy woman.
He didn't have much intuitive feeling about this at first, until he witnessed his cousin's arrogance at Xiaotao's wedding. Not only was he shocked, but he could only silently make six points in his heart. He felt that the gift he specially prepared for his sister's wedding seemed a bit embarrassing.
However, he was also very pleased to hear that the life of his sister, whom he had been silently caring for, was getting better and better. Especially when he heard that Xue Mi had always taken good care of her parents and Xiao Tao, he felt even more grateful.
Lin Zhifeng had considered discussing the matter of the child's illness with Xue Mi, but what he lacked most now was not money but treatment resources. He felt that even if his cousin was rich, it would not be of much help to his family, so he did not mention it.
Unexpectedly, when the news came back, she could really help.
The couple came out of the high-speed rail station with their child. They looked up and saw a conspicuous business car parked in front of the station. Xiao Tao and Xue Mi were standing in front of the car. At this time, Xiao Tao was waving excitedly at her brother, sister-in-law and nephew.
When she reached the car, Xiao Tao first went to look at the child in her brother's arms. As a result, she couldn't help but feel heartbroken at first sight.
The child's condition does not look good.
Xue Mi couldn't help but frowned deeply.
If my aunt saw how Dudu looks now, I don’t know how sad she would be.
Xue Mi had seen Dudu several times before. Her impression of him was that he was a chubby little boy with a silly look, but he was very smart and his eloquence was much better than his father.
In fact, in terms of being sweet-talker and coaxing people, Xue Mi felt that Dudu was more like his aunt than his wooden father.
But now Dudu's face is much thinner than before, and the bones on his face and body are prominent. His face is pale and a little swollen. He lies in his father's arms, without any energy. However, he still takes the initiative to greet Xue Mi and Xiao Tao: "Aunt Xiao Tao, Aunt Mi Mi, it's strange, how come you are more beautiful than the last time I saw you."
When they heard the child's words, Xue Mi and Xiao Tao almost burst into tears.
