Chapter 9: Are you blind?

The second and third sons were both anxious.

"What should we do? Will she secretly beat and scold us like the stepmother before?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the children all shuddered, as if they remembered the scene a few years ago.

At that time, Zhou Tingyue had just brought them home. The eldest and second oldest were five or six years old and could remember things. Even the youngest was only three or four years old and could still remember vaguely.

The sudden death of their parents was a huge blow to them. Although Zhou Tingyue brought them back, they knew that their parents died because of him.

So the attitude towards him was not very nice, and his new wife was jumping up and down all day long.

They even beat and pinched them secretly behind people's backs.

Not to mention that they often had bruises all over their bodies, even the fourth child who was still in swaddling clothes was not spared.

She sharpened the embroidery needle until it was very thin and sharp, and whenever the fourth child cried, she would pierce the needle.

The embroidery needle was so fine that you couldn't even see the eye of the needle.

Although Zhou Tingyue went home as much as possible to take care of them, he was not at home every day, so he naturally could not notice any clues.

I just think that the fourth child is particularly fond of crying.

At that time, they all secretly hated her and started thinking of ways to punish that woman.

Sure enough, the woman couldn't stand it anymore after a while.

She kept looking for Zhou Tingyue and asked for a divorce.

Fortunately, the divorce application was approved soon.

As soon as the woman left, everyone cheered for a while.

As time went by, they realized that Zhou Tingyue was really good to them and was kind to them from the bottom of his heart.

In the first one or two years, they were resistant to him, but later they gradually opened their hearts and acknowledged him as their real father!

I thought their family would live a peaceful and stable life, but then I heard the news that my father was getting married.

How could the children not be afraid? The dusty memories from several years ago instantly came to their minds.

The fourth child didn't understand anything, but he was still a little scared after hearing what his older brother said.

"Brother, what should we do?"

As the eldest brother of several children, Zhou Cheng's still slightly childish face showed a hint of viciousness.

"Don't worry, Big Brother has a way to make her get out of our house early like that bad woman before!"

After saying this, he asked his younger brothers and sisters to come around and made arrangements in a low voice.

When the children heard what their eldest brother said, their eyes suddenly brightened and they nodded one after another.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, big brother!"

Zhou Tingyue waited for the marriage report to be approved before boarding the ship to the mainland.

Fortunately, his situation was special, so the process was expedited for him. It would have taken at least a week, but it was done in five days.

During this period, he also called his parents in Beijing.

The fact that he adopted four children almost pissed off his parents to death.

But his parents are not unreasonable people. They know that he does this to repay his gratitude. But as parents, who doesn’t think about their own children?

A good marriage was broken, and he was divorced and had four children to raise. They felt that Zhou Tingyue's life was ruined.

Zhou Tingyue's mother, Shen Xiu'e, was so angry about this that she fell ill.

Therefore, Zhou Tingyue seldom went home in recent years. He was afraid that his parents would feel sad when they saw him.

But this time, he still has to tell his family about such a big thing as his marriage. It’s always a good thing to tell them.

I believe his parents will be happy for him when they hear this.

And that was indeed the case. When Shen Xiu'e received his call, she was obviously very surprised.

"What? Son, tell me again? What do you want to do?"

Zhou Tingyue smiled helplessly.

"I might be getting married! I'm telling you in advance so you can rest assured!"

Hearing his words, Shen Xiu'e was so happy that tears almost fell.

"Did you hear me right, Mom? You said you were getting married?"

Before Zhou Tingyue could say anything, he heard his mother excitedly shouting on the other end of the phone: "Old Zhou, come quickly and listen to what your son said! He said he's getting married!!"

There was a rustling sound from the other end of the receiver, and it was obvious that his father Zhou Runde was also very excited.

Then his father's pretended deep voice came from the other end: "Ahem, Tingyue, you said you are getting married?"

Zhou Tingyue smiled and replied, "Yes, I am going to take a leave of absence in the next two days to go back to Beijing City and propose marriage to them. If the girl agrees, the marriage certificate will be issued soon! My marriage report has also been approved!"

Hearing what their son said, the old couple's eyes couldn't help but tear up.

Shen Xiu'e reacted and asked hurriedly, "Son, is that girl also from Beijing? What's her name? Where is she from? How old is she?"

Zhou Tingyue gave them Song Shiwei's name and home address without thinking too much.

So, Song Shiwei waited and waited, but before Zhou Tingyue showed up, a strange thing happened.

That day, she still wanted to go to the doorstep sales point to ask if there was any phone number or letter for her.

As a result, I met a middle-aged woman carrying a vegetable basket on the road.

Although her clothes were not very good, she was very clean and her hair was combed neatly. She was obviously a very particular person.

Why did Song Shiwei notice her? It was mainly because she turned her head to look at her from time to time while walking.

Then he looked uncertain again.

She found it very strange.

At this moment, Song Yingying should have just got off work and was riding her bicycle towards this side.

They happened to be at a fork in the road, and the woman was probably looking at her and not paying attention to the road, and Song Yingying was riding fast.

Just when Song Shiwei wanted to remind her, the two of them had already bumped into each other!

With a loud bang, Song Yingying's bicycle fell to the ground. The rear wheel kept spinning, and she fell heavily to the ground. The woman was hit hard by her and fell on the curb, screaming "Ouch!" non-stop. The vegetables in the basket were scattered all over the ground.

Song Yingying was so angry that her knee was probably bruised and hurt a lot, but she still endured the pain and got up.

Pointing at the person on the ground, he started to curse: "Are you blind? You don't even look at the road when you walk! You are really sick. You almost made me fall to death!"

But Shen Xiu'e, who was lying on the ground, was in so much pain that she couldn't breathe, and it seemed that her waist was sprained.

Seeing the sarcastic-looking girl in front of her unwilling to give in, she tried to stand up with a pale face, but her waist hurt so much that she couldn't even exert any strength.

"Little girl, don't be so quick to scold me. Can you help me first? I sprained my waist!"

But Song Yingying was not willing to agree.

"Don't play dead! What do you mean by a sprained waist? I think you are just trying to trick me! I'm telling you, I'm not someone you can easily bully! Get up now!"

But Shen Xiu'e was in so much pain that sweat broke out on her forehead and her face turned as pale as paper.

I can't even speak.

Song Yingying at the side was still chattering non-stop, and Shen Xiu'e's head began to hurt as she heard her words. Her vision went dark.
