"His face isn't black, but his hands are rough..." Aunt An was halfway through her words when the soft and tender little hands in her hands told her that she was overthinking. For a moment, Aunt An thought that Jiang Yule was not going to the countryside, but was going on vacation somewhere...
"Auntie An, don't worry, I didn't do much farm work. Later I went to work in the town hospital."
"That's good, come in quickly." Aunt An pulled Jiang Yule into the house, sat on the sofa and gave her various fruits. Uncle Zhou, who was sitting in front of the window reading a newspaper, heard Jiang Yule's voice, put down the newspaper and said with a smile, "Yule is back. You should live at home during this period. Your Aunt An has cleaned up the room for you. Tell your Aunt An if you need anything."
"Okay, thank you Uncle Zhou"
"Don't be so polite with Uncle Zhou. Eat some fruit and chat with your Aunt An. She's very happy to know you're coming back these days."
"Yeah, I miss Aunt An, too." Jiang Yule took Aunt An's arm and gently rested his head on her shoulder, being very intimate. Aunt An was so happy about Jiang Yule's little girl's attitude. She tilted her head slightly, put her cheek against Jiang Yule's head, and gently touched Jiang Yule's cheek with her hand. She said something from time to time, with a kind and peaceful smile on her face. Uncle Zhou on the side also looked at his wife and Jiang Yule with a smile on his face.
Zhou Jialin parked the car and carried his luggage into the house. This is what he saw. He felt relieved, but he still said sourly, "Hey, are these the same parents who chased me around the house with a rolling pin?"
As soon as Zhou Jialin finished his sarcastic words, Uncle Zhou's face suddenly turned cold, and he was filled with the majesty of a bureaucrat. Even Aunt An, who was always pleasant, became angry.
"You brat, you deserve to be punished, don't you?"
"If you have nothing to do, take Yule's luggage upstairs. It's not an eyesore here," Zhou Chengye said unhappily.
Zhou Jialin was used to his parents' attitude. As he went into the house to change his shoes, he said nonchalantly, "You like Yule so much, why don't you recognize a daughter? That way, I can be her real brother."
Zhou Jialin's words touched the hearts of Zhou Chengye and Aunt An. Jiang Yule was a child they had watched grow up. She was sensible, pretty, capable, and could act like a spoiled child. She was the perfect daughter they had always dreamed of.
But thinking of her deceased best friend, Aunt An hesitated again. Her eyes, which had been bright just now, dimmed a little. She didn't want to mention Jiang Yule's sad story, and said hesitantly, "Is Yule willing? If not..."
"Aunt An, I am willing. You are my mother's good friend, and I must hope that you will be by my side." Jiang Yule stood up and looked at Aunt An seriously. She didn't want to recognize Aunt An as her godmother when she first came, perhaps because she felt that they were not familiar with each other. But in less than half a year, Jiang Yule was really moved by the Zhou family who unconditionally protected her and stood up for her. In this world, she also hopes to have a family.
"Okay, okay, we don't need to call them godparents, just call them mom and dad."
"Yes, Mom and Dad," Jiang Yule said sweetly. Aunt An responded happily with red eyes. Zhou Chengye, who was sitting in the back, smiled knowingly. Thinking of what Zhou Jialin had been busy with these days, he said, "I heard that Jialin has been helping you look for houses recently. You don't have to buy a house. Just live at home. Our place is not far from your hospital. I can ask the driver to take you there when I go to work in the morning. It's on the way."
"Dad, I still want to see someone near the hospital. I have many surgeries. If there is any emergency, I am afraid I can't make it in time." Jiang Yule said tactfully. Although he could take her to work, it was not good to trouble others all the time. After all, that was the car assigned to Zhou Chengye.
Zhou Chengye hesitated for a moment, but he also thought about the doctor's busy schedule. "That's fine. No matter how much it costs, I'll pay for the house as a gift for my daughter. Zhou Jialin, you can find a safe one nearby. Money is not a problem. And we'll handle the transfer procedures and put the house in Yule's name."
"Thank you, Dad." Jiang Yule thanked him and did not reject Zhou Chengye's kindness. They were already a family, and she would have many opportunities to repay him. There was no need to rush. Thinking of the fairy in the space, she planned when to give them one.
Zhou Chengye said this self-proclaimed title very smoothly, and he was even more straightforward when he gave orders to Zhou Jialin. If you say he was pretending before, now he is really jealous, "Dad, buy me a house too, and I will move out, so that you won't be upset when you see me."
"Believe it or not, I will kick you out right now!" Zhou Chengye was so angry that he was about to burst into flames. His family had produced such an unpromising person, and his entire reputation was ruined by him!
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything..." Zhou Jialin sighed and went upstairs, but he was really happy that Jiang Yule could become a part of their family.
After the news of her parents came back, he deliberately avoided her because of Jiang Yule's inferiority complex, but he was always concerned about her life. It's not that he didn't see that her aunt's family deliberately made things difficult for her, but she didn't have much resistance at the time. In addition, her aunt's family was her only blood relative, so he didn't interfere too much.
But what Zhou Jialin didn't know was that since receiving the news of his parents' sacrifice, the original owner not only had no emotions to resist, but even lost hope of living...
He thought Jiang Yule had come to terms with it, but in fact, she had changed her mind.
But no matter what, Zhou Jialin felt sorry for Jiang Yule. A little girl who was so soft and cute when she was young should live a safe and carefree life in a warm and happy family.
Thinking of this, Zhou Jialin suddenly remembered what he had heard about the Mu family during this period.
I had planned to find some time to talk to Jiang Yule about it. Now it seems that I have to tell his father about Jiang Yule and Mu Chuan, as well as what happened in Mu Chuan's family recently...
