Chapter 167 A Good Show
Ernengzi had just finished get off work at noon, so he decided to stop by the hospital to get medicine for his mother.
Xiao Xue had nothing to do in the hospital. She was originally responsible for prescribing Chinese medicine, but after the campaign to destroy the four olds, there were only a few old Chinese doctors left in the hospital.
So she had a lot of free time at work and would go to the lobby to chat with people from time to time.
When I came out to use the bathroom, I saw Xu Huiping in a daze, and the young nurses next to her were gathered in groups of three or four, chatting.
"Sister Huiping, what's wrong with you?"
Xiao Xue also knew Xu Huiping, and she admired this down-to-earth and capable female comrade very much.
"Xiaoxue, I'm fine. Go ahead and do your work."
Xu Huiping looked up at Xiao Xue, who was looking concerned, wiped her face casually, and pretended to be calm.
"You look so pale, eat something."
Xiao Xue rummaged through her pocket and took out a small piece of chocolate.
This was brought back by her father on a business trip. He tore open the outer wrapping paper and handed it to Xu Huiping.
"Thank you, Xiaoxue."
When I put it in my mouth, it tasted bitter.
Since she came home from her last blind date, she was late the day before yesterday and didn’t have time to cook.
As expected, she was scolded by her mother.
"I've raised you for nothing. You can't even cook a meal at home."
"That's right, little sister, when you get home from get off work, you can help your sister-in-law wash the clothes, right?"
"Daughter, why is your salary this month so low? You haven't paid your food expenses yet?"
"Mom, I don't usually eat at home. Can I not pay for the food?"
"What? Girl, you can't be so heartless. Go and ask which girl doesn't pay money home!"
"The eldest daughter from the Xu family next door doesn't keep a cent of her salary every month. She gives it all to her mother."
"Look at other people. If you give to mom, she can save it for you."
"When you get married, Mom will ask you to take her with you."
"Daya, you have to pay attention to the matter of seeing each other."
"It's okay if the man refuses. Just try harder and do the work you need to do."
"When a man pursues a woman, there's a mountain between them; when a woman pursues a man, there's only a thin layer of gauze between them. Just break through the window paper and that's it."
"It's already this late. You can't be so reserved anymore. You need to take the initiative."
"You are old now. It would be unreasonable for you to stop talking to others."
"In a while, your younger brother's wife will be coming home, and then our house will be completely empty."
"It's also your parents' fault that they're incompetent. The whole family is squeezed into two rooms."
"It's okay for men to get older. Older people will be more caring."
"His family is well-off, with only a widowed mother. When you marry into the family, you'll be the head of the household."
"I heard he has three more blue brick houses. There's no way the three of you could live in them all."
"You'll be lonely over there by yourself, so I'll ask your eldest brother and the others to visit you from time to time."
"It's okay if you don't come back at night. There's room for you anyway."
"My daughter, you are the most sensible and filial one in the family. When life gets better in the future, you must help your brothers more."
"We are all family. If your parents' family is doing well, it will also give you confidence. Your in-laws can't look down on you either."
"When you give birth to a few more boys, the hospital will be too busy to handle the work. I'll ask your sister-in-law to take over your shift when she has time."
Xu Huiping thought about what her mother said to her in the room last night, and her heart sank.
There are many people in her family. She is the second child. Her older brother is already married and has a boy.
I have two younger brothers and a youngest sister.
My third brother went to the army to make a living and has never been a good person to this day.
My fourth brother just found a wife this year and is planning to get married next month.
My younger sister was adopted by a distant uncle two years ago and was taken to the south.
Now a family of seven lives in two rooms. The 20-square-meter house is divided into several small rooms the size of cages.
Her eldest sister-in-law is pregnant again, and her fourth brother's wife is going to get married next month.
The houses won’t get bigger, but the population is growing and there’s no room for them.
That's why her mother was so anxious to let her go and see someone else. With one less person at home, there would be more space.
But she remembered that during her first few years of work, her mother told her to work hard, not to rush into marriage, and to spend more time at her parents' home.
When you marry into your husband's family, life as a daughter-in-law will not be so easy.
Now that I think about it, she was really stupid.
Xu Huiping's consciousness was pulled out of her memories, and she felt warm in her heart when she saw Xiao Xue still waiting in front of her.
She was in a bad mood these days, but her mother didn't notice.
Xiao Xue and Xu Huiping were good friends, and she also knew about her family situation.
"Sister Huiping, don't worry, you've lost weight recently."
"You need to eat more and take care of yourself before you can do other things."
"Xiaoxue, thank you."
Before she could finish her words, someone told Xiao Xue that someone was looking for her outside.
"Looking for me? Who?"
"A gay man, on the right side of the gatehouse."
Xiao Xue went out with doubts. When he got outside, he saw a figure standing next to the small door on the right with his back to him.
The man turned around when he heard footsteps.
"What are you doing here?"
Xiao Xue saw who was coming and turned indifferent in a second.
As she turned to leave, the man grabbed her wrist.
"Xiaoxue, I really have something to say to you."
The person who came was Lou Yu. He looked at Xiao Xue affectionately, his voice soft and sad.
"Who are you? I have nothing to say to you. If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
Xiao Xue impatiently shook it off, rubbed her wrist, and looked alert.
Lou Yu paused and said, "Xiaoxue, I'm getting married."
Xiao Xue took two steps back before speaking:
"You're getting married, aren't you? Why are you telling me this? Are you asking me to give you a gift?"
"I don't have any money, and even if I did, I wouldn't give it to you."
"There's nothing to worry about in the future. No, don't come to me if you have any problems."
Lin Xiaotong and He Cuicui also arrived and saw Lou Yu pulling Xiaoxue.
Xiao Xue wanted to leave, but Lou Yu stopped her.
Fortunately, this is next to a small door and not many people pass by.
He Cuicui rushed forward, pulled Xiao Xue over, and started yelling at the building.
"What are you doing? What are you pushing?"
Lin Xiaotong held two bicycles and ran over.
The building was pushed to the ground and dazed. He stumbled and took three steps back before he could stand firm.
As soon as he raised his head, he saw He Cuicui standing in front of Xiao Xue with a sullen look on her face, and his face changed.
"Cui Cui, don't get me wrong, I have nothing to do with her."
Xiao Xue almost fainted in anger. How could this man be so shameless as to even have the nerve to turn the tables on her?
Just as I was about to go up and argue, I heard He Cuicui cursing first.
"Bah! You're a liar."
Xiao Xue followed closely behind: "Exactly, how dare you be so shameless! It was obviously you who came to see me."
She was not afraid because there were so many people around her.
Lin Xiaotong looked at the bicycle from the side, and looked at the building with disdain as it continued to throw dirty water on others after being exposed.
"Wow! It's so lively."
