Lin Yi chuckled, glanced at Ling Shuang beside him, and then scolded his son in a low voice: "Be quiet, don't wake up your sister."
Zhou Mingming was at a loss, feeling an unprecedented sense of crisis.
He always said he didn't want a second child, but it still didn't work.
Seeing his family's status shaken, he pointed at the child and said relentlessly, "Don't you two want to work anymore? Did the hospital know you two are having a second child? Does the government allow you to have more children than allowed?"
The secret was kept too well. The hospital must have been kept in the dark as well. Even his son, who lived with him day and night, didn't notice it, let alone the hospital, who had no way to stop it in advance.
Lin Yi felt mischievous and pretended to be serious. "Son, do you know why the school expelled you yesterday? Dad didn't beat you or scold you, and he even bought you a cake?"
Zhou Mingming had a bad feeling and asked hesitantly, "Why?"
Lin Yi sighed: "Your dad was also fired yesterday!"
What a bolt from the blue!
"Is it because of the second child?"
Zhou Mingming burst into tears. He pointed at the child and cried, "Send him away, send her away! I don't want a brother, and I don't want a sister. This family either has him or me."
Lin Yi and Ling Shuang exchanged a quick glance; they hadn't expected this child to be so 'unique'. Just as Lin Yi was about to continue his speculation, Ling Shuang stopped him.
She first carried the child to the inner bedroom. The child was sleeping soundly. Although the living room was so noisy just now, she just frowned and was not disturbed too much.
After settling the baby, she closed the door and returned to the living room. Seeing Zhou Mingming, a 1.7-meter-tall boy, rolling around on the floor, she felt her fingers itchy.
But she held back, went to the kitchen to wash her hands first, then served herself porridge and picked up some buns, and fried two poached eggs, one of which she gave to Lin Yi.
The fake couple ignored the target's emotional breakdown and sat calmly at the dining table to eat.
Zhou Mingming could no longer continue his one-man show. The flexible Mr. Zhou immediately withdrew his magical powers and stood up as if nothing had happened. He walked to the dining table and sat down, reaching out to take the buns on the plate.
Ling Shuang hit her hand hard with the other end of her chopsticks: "Go wash your hands."
Zhou Mingming washed his hands and brushed his teeth angrily, and drank a large glass of warm water. His family has the habit of drinking 500 ml of warm water on an empty stomach in the morning to stimulate the appetite.
When I returned to the dining table, it was empty except for an empty bowl and a pair of chopsticks.
He looked at his father, then at his mother: "Where's mine?"
Ling Shuang sat on the sofa and said without turning his head, "It's in the kitchen. Go get it yourself. Wash your dishes after you finish eating."
Zhou Mingming was a little unhappy, but his mother was obviously different today. It must be that the threat of having a second child was too hurtful. His mother would never say no to him before.
Now they actually asked him to serve his own rice. Usually they thought he didn't know how to do anything and were afraid that he would get burned!
He muttered to himself as he carried the empty bowl to the kitchen. There was only a thin layer of porridge at the bottom of the pot, and only two small buns were left. This was not enough for him to eat.
He deliberately made a loud banging of pots and spoons, trying to attract the attention of the two people whispering on the sofa, but no one paid any attention to him.
He finished the porridge from the pot and ate two steamed buns with his hands. He shouted to the living room, "I want some fried eggs too. I'm not full."
Ling Shuang: "Next time, tell me if you want breakfast. You were rolling around on the ground crying. I thought you weren't hungry, so I didn't do anything for you."
Zhou Mingming looked aggrieved: "I'm hungry, I'm starving!"
Ling Shuang said coldly, "If you're hungry, wait until noon, or you can cook it yourself. You're the last one to finish eating, so remember to wash the pot."
Zhou Mingming curled his lips, picked up the steamer, shook the water at the bottom of the pot, and then poured it into the porridge pot. The steamer was washed.
He then used the water from the bottom of the steamer to wash the porridge pot in the same way, and it was all washed in half a minute. He didn't touch the dishes, which saved him a lot of trouble.
Rubbing his half-hungry stomach, he walked up to Ling Shuang with his palm facing up: "Mom, give me some money."
Ling Shuang shook his head: "I don't have any money."
His hand turned to Lin Yi again: "Dad——".
Lin Yi stood up and turned out both pockets of his pants, but they were empty. "Your mother manages the money in our family."
Zhou Mingming was furious: "Why don't you give me money? You don't let me eat enough, and you cut off my pocket money. What do you want to do? Are you going to ignore me now that you have a second child?"
Seeing that the volume was getting louder, he was about to throw a tantrum again.
Ling Shuang listened to his chatter, dislocated his jaw with one move, and then pushed him to sit on the sofa: "Sit down and calm down for a while. If you can talk properly, just nod."
Zhou Mingming opened his mouth wide, his eyes full of disbelief. He nodded, making two "ah" sounds in his throat.
Ling Shuang: "Can you speak properly now?"
Zhou Mingming: “Ah.” Yes.
Ling Shuang reset his jaw.
Zhou Mingming didn't expect that the first day after dropping out of school would be so exciting. He was a little overwhelmed and looked up and down at his mother.
He didn't say anything, Ling Shuang had something to say: "The child in the room is a patient in the hospital. Her father died in a traffic accident, and her mother had severe bleeding when she gave birth to her and could not be saved.
This child has a congenital heart disease and is quite fragile. Surgery is not possible yet and she needs to be raised a little bit. Right now, it's like the doctors and nurses in our hospital are working together to raise her. The obstetrics department is busy today, so I brought her back."
Zhou Mingming's eyes regained some spirit: "Hey, it's not the second baby you two are trying to make! You scared me."
