Cheng Xiaokui said, "Aren't her parents Song Jingchuan's parents?"
Song Wenhui hesitated for a moment and said, "That's not what I meant... I meant..."
Cheng Qiuqiu asked, "Mom, what do you mean? Why are you asking about other people's parents?"
Song Wenhui said, "Um... what I mean is, why do I feel like she doesn't look like her brother? Is she a child of the Song family?"
Cheng Qiu Kui said, "Isn't it normal for the brother and sister to look alike? One takes after their father, and the other after their mother!"
Song Wenhui said, "It's possible that one resembles the father and the other the mother, but they wouldn't be completely dissimilar, would they?"
I've been at the hospital these past few days, seeing Song Jingchuan every day, and I haven't found a single thing about him that resembles his sister—their facial features are completely different!
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "Really? I didn't notice. Mom, you don't actually think she was adopted from the Song family, do you? That's impossible, isn't it?"
Song Wenhui said, "I didn't say that. I was just asking out of curiosity. If you don't know, then forget it."
"Quickly get my and your brother's clothes. I'm in a hurry to get back; what if your brother wakes up?"
Cheng Xiao Kui and Cheng Qiu Kui went back to their room, opened the box, found Song Wen Hui and her brother's clothes, put them in a net bag, and handed them to Song Wen Hui.
Song Wenhui took all the money Cheng Qiu Kui had earned in the past few days and sat down to count it several times.
This was the main room. She put the money in her pocket and went back to her room.
She locked the door tightly and secretly hid the money.
Cheng Qiuqiu was fully aware of her mother's actions.
She and her sister stood in the yard waiting for their mother. She rolled her eyes and whispered to her sister, "Mom treats me like I'm a thief! She's afraid I'll find out where she keeps her money. Do you think I'd steal it?"
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "Once your younger brother recovers, you can teach him all the skills you have now."
With these skills at his disposal, he was able to earn a fortune every day and make a huge profit.
When the time comes, find a man you like, marry him, and live your own life.
Cheng Qiuqiu pouted and said, "Our mom just favors boys over girls! So what if she's a girl?"
They say a married daughter is like water spilled from a cup. Who took care of her when she was sick?
"Once my brother gets better and can run his own business, I'll leave immediately! Don't come looking for me if he gets sick again!"
She grew angrier the more she thought about it. Her mother had never hidden anything from her when the family was poor.
The main problem is that I can't save any money at all. I can only save about twenty yuan a year, and then there's the New Year, and I have to send two yuan to my sister.
Unexpectedly, now that she's earning more money, her mother is becoming increasingly wary of her!
Cheng Xiaokui said, "Keep your voice down! This time, when the family buys a house, pay close attention. Find one for yourself too."
By the way, have you collected the rent for our old house? Don't forget to collect the rent every month!
Cheng Qiuqiu said, "We accepted it, and the rent was all given to our mother. Second Aunt and Grandma have even gone back to that house a few times."
They tried to go in and take over, but the tenants beat them out! Hahaha! It's a pity I wasn't there; I heard it from my neighbor, Aunt Wang!
"If only I were there, I would stand at the gate of the compound and watch them get beaten!"
Cheng Xiaokui said, "The house is occupied, which means someone is watching over it for us. No matter how much trouble they cause, it won't work! They can't take over our house!"
When she and her sister got tired of standing, they went back to the main room to wait for Song Wenhui.
It took Song Wenhui quite a while to return to the main room to get her clothes.
Cheng Xiaokui told Song Wenhui about her desire to buy a house.
Song Wenhui wholeheartedly supports buying a house.
Renting is so expensive! Buying a house is obviously more cost-effective than renting!
Moreover, her family is earning so much money now, they'll have enough to buy a house in no time.
She said, "Okay, let's save up enough money to buy a house. You two go and ask around the neighborhood, see if there are any good houses?"
Cheng Xiaokui said, "You can buy a house for about 3,000 yuan. It's a courtyard house with a large yard, and the house is in good condition, the kind you can move into right away."
Song Wenhui said, "Okay, whatever you say! You decide what to do! Is there any braised pork left for dinner at home?"
Cheng Qiuqiu said, "Didn't Aunt Zhang bring you dinner?"
Song Wenhui said, "It's here! I'm hungry again, aren't I? What if your brother gets hungry again?"
Go to the kitchen and heat up the rest of the braised pork for us. Pack it in a thermos, and also a thermos of rice!
Having no other choice, Cheng Qiuqiu went to the kitchen to heat up braised pork and rice for her mother.
Meat can be heated by putting it in an iron pot, while rice needs to be heated by putting it in a steamer.
After heating up the meat and rice, she packed them into two insulated containers for her mother.
Song Wenhui hung the net bag and thermos on the handlebars and pedaled her bicycle back to the hospital.
Now her family earns money like it's printing money every day; they can earn enough to buy a bicycle in just two days. Now she owns a bicycle too!
Cheng Xiao Kui told her sister to lock the door, then went back to her room to sleep with her two children.
But why did Mom suddenly ask Song Yalan?
She thought about it, but still couldn't figure it out.
At the hospital, Song Wenhui went to Lin Qiuru's ward.
She greeted Song Jingchuan and Si Muyang warmly, "Dr. Song, I saw you here when I got home. I brought you some braised pork!"
Si Muyang quickly stood up and said, "Mom, why did you go out of your way to bring me braised pork? That must be so tiring! Song Jingchuan and I have food!"
Song Wenhui said, "Nothing bought outside can taste as good as homemade. Try this braised pork with okra, this girl makes it really delicious!"
She opened the thermos and warmly invited Song Jingchuan and Si Muyang to try it!
Song Jingchuan bought a few snacks to go with his drinks, including ham sausage, peanuts, pig's head meat, and a large flatbread, but none of them tasted as good as the braised pork.
He said, "This braised pork with rice is so delicious! Auntie, thank you for bringing us food from so far away."
Song Wenhui said with a smile, "It's nothing. If you like it, I'll have okra make it again tomorrow!"
"Dr. Song, I saw your sister at home the other day! She's really pretty! When is she coming to visit you at the hospital?"
Song Jingchuan said, "How would I know when she's coming? You'll have to ask Si Muyang! Si Muyang is my sister's boss!"
Song Wenhui said, "So Mu Yang is your sister's boss! Then let Mu Yang give your sister a day off!"
Si Muyang said, "She has some work to do recently, but I estimate that she'll be able to come back to see her brother in a couple of days once she's settled into her work!"
Song Wenhui said, "I really clicked with that child! I liked her the moment I saw her."
By the way, Dr. Song, how old is your sister this year? What's her birthday? She looks about the same age as Xiao Kui!
Song Jingchuan said, "She's older than Xiao Kui. When my dad pulled her out of the river, she was probably about 5 years old. We don't know her exact birthday or what day it was."
Song Wenhui's face suddenly turned deathly pale, and all her expressions froze on her face...
