Zhao Yan knew that asking any further questions would be pointless; the teacher had entered the classroom, so he could only obediently attend the lesson.
Qiao Xiaoni twirled the pen in her hand, looking out the window with a feeling that it would snow today; the sky was too gloomy.
Just as I was thinking that, it started snowing heavily outside.
Luckily, I wore a cotton-padded coat today, so I didn't get soaked by the snow.
The students saw that it was snowing outside and all looked out the window.
Du Nan slammed his hand on the table: "Anyone who looks outside at the snow will be made to stand outside for a whole class period and have a good look at what snow looks like."
After saying that, no one dared to look anymore.
It's normal for people to be curious about the first snow of winter.
The Qiao Family Residence.
Looking out the window, Qiao Sunshi saw that it was snowing. She opened her mouth as if to speak, but her mouth was too dry, so she closed it again.
When Qiao Tianli looked up, he saw that it was snowing outside.
"This is the first snow of winter, and it looks like quite a lot!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the curtain was lifted, and Qiao Hainan walked in wearing a thick cotton coat.
"Dad, I've put some more firewood in the small house. Could you take a look and see if it's enough for you?"
If it's not enough, I'll chop some more and put it in. This snow is too heavy; I don't think it will stop anytime soon.
Even if things stop, there's no way to go up the mountain to chop firewood anymore.
“There’s still coal at home, isn’t there? That’s enough. Don’t risk going up the mountain. Your mother and I won’t need much firewood.” Qiao Tianli took a puff of his pipe and said, “The baby will be a month old in a few days. With this weather, we can’t have a big celebration. Tell your wife to have it next year.”
It's not that we don't want to buy her anything, we just want to calm her down. If her milk dries up, we won't be able to feed the baby.
"Okay, I'll have a good talk with her later." Qiao Hainan turned and left.
Qiao Tianli took the money out of his pocket and put it in Qiao Sunshi's arms: "I still have this much money left. Keep this money and use it to hold a first birthday banquet for the child next year."
All the money we collected is yours, so don't be sad anymore. If that money isn't coming back, it's not coming back. I haven't blamed you, so why make things difficult for yourself?
Qiao Sunshi shed tears of regret. If she had known this would happen, she would have been better off not saving that money.
Qiao Tianli tucked her in, hoping she could think things through. Seeing her health deteriorating day by day, he suddenly had a bad feeling; perhaps she wouldn't make it through the winter.
Hospital.
Qiao Dongdong finally accepted the fact that he had lost one arm and began to eat with his other hand, though his left hand was not very dexterous.
I couldn't pick up chopsticks, so I had to use a spoon, and I still made a mess of the food everywhere.
Wang Qin felt heartbroken and wanted to help, but after being given a cold look by her son, she withdrew her hand.
Qiao Haixing looked dejected. He didn't want to speak except for meals. He went to report the case to the police. Several days passed without finding him. Song Min must have run away to another province.
The doctor pushed open the door and said, "Your hospital deposit is running out. If you don't pay today, you'll have to be discharged tomorrow."
Qiao Dongdong lost his grip on the spoon and it fell to the ground. He knew his family was poor, but his arm wasn't fully recovered. If he left the hospital now and contracted an infection, he would die.
Wang Qin hadn't expected the money she'd paid to run out so quickly, so she hurriedly told the doctor, "We'll pay as soon as possible. Please wait a little longer, and don't stop the medication; his body hasn't recovered yet."
