Sheng An Ning felt a chill down her spine instantly. If Zhou Shixun took the receipt and asked her why the handwriting was different, how would she make it up?
Why was I so careless just now!
He hurriedly said something to Liu Mei and the others, then ran towards the ward. When he reached the door of the ward, he stopped, took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and walked into the ward leisurely and relaxedly.
Zhou Shixun was folding clothes. On the bedside table was the roll of money and receipt that she had just given him. Judging from the degree of curling, it seemed like the same time when she gave it to him.
Sheng An Ning glanced at it for a few times, not sure if Zhou Shixun had seen it, and walked over with a smile: "I remember I just put this dress away for you."
Zhou Shixun nodded: "I just found something and took it out again."
Sheng An Ning said, "Oh," and pointed to the money on the bedside table: "Then don't forget to pack this. Can the company reimburse you?"
Zhou Shixun turned his head and took a look, looking a little surprised: "You spent a lot of money? How much is left? Let me check it later. If the amount does not exceed five dollars, you don't have to reimburse."
Sheng An Ning instantly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Zhou Shixun hadn't read it yet, so she went over and picked it up: "I read it, and it cost me two dollars and eighty-three cents in total, and I got back more than seven dollars."
Zhou Shixun seemed not to notice her actions and hummed: "Then keep it. Go buy some candy later. When you see the children in the village, give them candy."
Sheng An Ning didn't have time to ask why she wanted to buy candy, and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I'll go buy two kilograms of fruit candy later."
Zhou Shixun looked up at Sheng Anning, then lowered his head to continue packing his clothes.
It seems that Sheng An Ning really doesn't understand the local customs. When a new bride goes to her husband's house for the first time, she has to bring some candy and give it to the children who come to visit her at any time.
Sheng An Ning breathed a sigh of relief, her smile became even brighter, and she packed the washbasin and lunch box very actively.
Just as they were finishing up, Song Xiuyan came in. Seeing that Zhou Shixun and Sheng Anning had packed their things, he went over to help carry them. "Let's go now. We can reach the town at noon. I'll stay at the guesthouse tonight and take you to the county town to take the bus tomorrow."
Sheng An Ning had no idea about Hewan Village, and neither did the original owner.
So she thought Hewan Village was a nearby village. Now she was a little surprised to hear Song Xiuyan say that they had to take a bus. Is it far to Hewan Village?
On the way back, Sheng An Ning didn't feel the bumps. She didn't know if it was because she had adapted to it or if Song Xiuyan's driving skills were better.
When I arrived at the family compound, there were still a few women gathered at the intersection not far from my home, watching the children and chatting.
When they saw a jeep coming, they all looked over curiously.
Seeing that it was Sheng An Ning who helped Zhou Shixun down, everyone was stunned and quickly gathered around, asking questions at once.
"Captain Zhou, are you feeling better?"
"I heard from Doctor Xiao that you were seriously injured. How come you came back so soon?"
"I have a hen at home. I'll catch it and use it to heal your wounds."
"I have two packets of milk powder at home. I'll get them for you."
Before Zhou Shixun could refuse, the group of women dispersed and went home to get their things.
Sheng An Ning was a little surprised. How come Zhou Shixun was so popular in the family compound?
Song Xiuyan helped carry the things in, and without thinking, he carried the things into the inner room and placed them on the stool beside the bed.
Seeing that Zhou Shixun didn't say anything, Sheng Anning didn't say much. She asked Song Xiuyan to sit down while she went to light the stove.
Zhou Shixun knew Sheng Anning's ability and glanced at Song Xiuyan: "Let him go. He is very familiar with this family compound. Let him go and borrow some fire."
When Sheng An Ning heard about borrowing fire, she fell silent instantly. Considering the original owner's popularity in the family compound, she would definitely be looked down upon. She decided not to go and make herself uncomfortable.
Song Xiuyan cooperated and went to borrow fire with the tongs.
Sheng An Ning couldn't just go to the inner room to take out Zhou Shixun's luggage, so she let Zhou Shixun lie down on the small bed for a while: "Light the fire later, and I'll cook."
Zhou Shixun shook his head: "No need to do it, let Song Xiuyan go to the cafeteria to get some food back."
Sheng Anning hesitated: "This is not a good idea. Let others do everything."
Song Xiuyan came in with a spark in his hand: "Sister-in-law, you don't have to be embarrassed. Zhou Shixun looks honest, but he is actually very cunning."
Sheng An Ning smiled a little embarrassedly. After all, she was not familiar with Song Xiuyan, so it would be better for her to get along with Zhou Shixun.
When Song Xiuyan had finished lighting the fire, there was a knock on the door.
Sheng An Ning went to open the door and saw a pile of things thrown at the door, and the people who delivered the things were walking hurriedly towards their home.
Looking down again, I saw a hen, a basket of eggs, canned food, cakes, milk powder and two bags of candy cubes.
After a quick glance, Sheng An Ning didn't remember any of them. She turned back to look at Zhou Shixun in the room: "What should I do with these things?"
Song Xiuyan stretched his neck to take a look and said, "Then keep it, sister-in-law. You don't have to be embarrassed. This is how it is when you live in a family compound. If anyone has problems, I will go and help them."
Zhou Shixun glanced at Song Xiuyan, who was calling her sister-in-law more and more easily.
Then he said to Sheng An Ning, "Take it in first, and then find a way to return it later."
Song Xiuyan brought back lunch from the cafeteria, which consisted of cabbage soup and cornmeal buns.
There were a few slices of fat floating in the cabbage soup, but Sheng Anning ate it with relish.
After lunch, the room became hot. Song Xiuyan still had no intention of leaving. He sat on the small bed and waved, "You guys go and have a rest. Don't worry about me."
How could Zhou Shixun not know what Song Xiuyan meant? This guy knew from the moment he entered the room that they slept separately, so he was making trouble here. He glared at him and said, "Go to the guesthouse."
Song Xiuyan was not so easy to get rid of. He looked at Sheng Anning and said, "Sister-in-law, I have been traveling all day and I am almost exhausted. I will sit here for a while."
Sheng An Ning couldn't say no, so she could only agree with a smile: "It's okay, you sit down."
Then he looked at Zhou Shixun and said, "You go lie down in the room for a while. I'm going to go find Sister Hongxia and return the knitting needle to her. This needle is too thick and I don't know how to use it."
As soon as Sheng An Ning left, Zhou Shixun urged Song Xiuyan to get out: "Don't make trouble if you have nothing to do."
Song Xiuyan sighed: "How can it be a disturbance? I think Sheng Anning is different from the legend. You guys live a good life. I heard that you have a place in the study this time."
It's not that he thinks Sheng An Ning is that good, he just hopes that Zhou Shixun's family will be stable, and he can have a good future, leave this hellhole, and get rid of that vampire-like family.
Sheng An Ning met Qin Hongxia who was walking hurriedly towards them with a basket on her shoulder halfway.
When Qin Hongxia saw Sheng An Ning, she smiled from afar: "An Ning, you guys are finally back. I just happened to talk to you about something."
