Song Lili played with the child for half an hour, and then listened to Daqing brag for another half hour before finally picking up the shoes she had thrown down and getting to work.
"Lili, I'm so glad you're alright. I was so scared. I was so worried about you after I heard what happened a few days ago."
“I originally wanted to visit you, but my mother-in-law said that children shouldn’t be exposed to drafts, for fear of catching a cold, so I had to give up.”
"I'm so glad you're alright." Yang Mei suddenly remembered and said to Song Lili with concern.
Daqing nodded in agreement, "Yes, I went to other villages that day and missed it, otherwise I would have come to see you."
"Later, I heard from Qinghua that you were alright, so I didn't go to see you again."
The two were worried on one hand, and felt guilty on the other.
Song Lili smiled and shook her head. "I'm fine. They just made a mistake. The matter is already clear."
As for Luo Juan's scheming against her, Song Lili didn't intend to tell Yang Mei and make her worry; Da Qing should know something about it.
"It's alright, it's alright." Yang Mei kept saying, holding Song Lili's hand. "Otherwise, what would we have done?"
"It's alright, don't worry." Song Lili didn't explain further, just reassured Yang Mei that she was fine.
Next, under Song Lili's deliberate guidance, their conversation shifted to everyday trivial matters, so that Yang Mei's attention would no longer be focused on what had happened a few days ago.
Daqing suddenly said, "Why don't I go see if Qinghua is here, and have him come and chat with us too?"
“Anyway, there’s nothing to do in this weather, so let’s chat and kill some time,” Daqing said, his eyes sparkling.
Yang Mei also thought it was a good idea, and said with a smile, "That works too. It seems like it's been a long time since I've chatted with you guys."
Looking back, the last time everyone got together was before she got married; there haven't been any since. Sometimes she misses it.
Song Lili had no objection. "Sure, I'm staying at your place today anyway." So, she could invite whoever she wanted.
Moreover, she hadn't seen Zhang Qinghua for several days, and it seemed... she missed him a little bit?
Soon, Daqing wrapped himself up tightly and went out, and a few minutes later he returned with Zhang Qinghua.
As Daqing took off his shoes, he said, "Qinghua happened to be free, so I brought him along."
Hearing this, Zhang Qinghua couldn't help but roll his eyes. What do you mean he's fine? He was clearly teaching his younger brother, okay?
How did it become "nothing happened" in Daqing's mouth?
However, looking at Song Lili sitting prettily on the kang (a heated brick bed), Zhang Qinghua suppressed the urge to explain and decided to let them think that way.
So Zhang Qinghua sat silently on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), on the other side of Song Lili, staring at her intently.
I was planning to visit her sometime, but she came to me on her own.
"Hurry up and get on the floor, don't sit down there. Aren't you cold?" Song Lili glared at Zhang Qinghua, annoyed. Could you tone down your gaze a little?
However, Zhang Qinghua remained oblivious, continuing to stare at Song Lili, which left her feeling somewhat helpless. In the end, she could only tug at Zhang Qinghua's sleeve.
Honestly, it's not like we haven't seen each other for years, is it really necessary to act like this?
Although she was complaining like that, she actually felt sweet inside, with a kind of cloying feeling.
It feels really good to see that he cares about me.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Zhang Qinghua grabbed Song Lili's hand, and then, following Song Lili's lead, took off his shoes, climbed onto the kang (a heated brick bed), and sat down next to Song Lili.
Neither Daqing nor Yangmei spoke; they both watched quietly, especially Daqing, who looked like he couldn't stand it anymore.
Seriously, they've been married for ages and even have a daughter, so can they please stop showing off their love like this?
He's not single, so he can't be tortured.
He pursed his lips and said, "I said, what are you guys doing? I told you to come here to chat, not to stare at each other." Although he knew in his heart that they were gazing at each other affectionately, he just wouldn't admit it.
Song Lili couldn't help but twitch her lips. They stared at each other, wide-eyed. Where did Daqing even get that idea?
So, quite speechlessly, I said, "I think you might have an eye problem. Why don't you go to town to get it checked out sometime?"
Zhang Qinghua silently added, "He's almost blind." He nodded seriously as he spoke.
"You...you all..."
"It's true, you two are a match made in heaven."
Even with their sharp tongues, they're such a perfect match, unmatched by anyone.
Song Lili said calmly, "We know, but thank you for your compliment anyway."
"Was that a compliment?" Daqing yelled angrily.
"I'll take it as a compliment from you." Song Lili glanced at Daqing indifferently after pulling out the needle.
"you……"
"Pfft!"
Yang Mei couldn't help but laugh out loud. Although she felt a little sorry for Da Qing because he was speechless, it was really funny.
One of the two looked calm and composed, as if nothing could faze her.
One was like a monkey, jumping up and down, scratching its ears and cheeks in a frantic manner, forming a stark contrast.
"Alright, you two, I think the only thing you don't argue about is Xiaolan. You can't agree on anything else."
In the past, it seemed like we would always bicker with each other whenever we met, and that hasn't changed now.
However, this feeling gave Yangmei a subtle sense of warmth. It was as if time hadn't changed anything.
"snort"
"snort"
Song Lili and Daqing both snorted coldly and fell silent, showing that they had to give Yang Mei face.
And so, the air quieted down, and even though the four of them sat in silence, you could feel their happiness.
Zhang Qinghua still asked, "Are the elderly people alright? I didn't have time to visit them that day, and it's not easy to visit them now." So, Zhang Qinghua kept thinking about them.
"Don't worry, they're all fine. They were just a little startled by the suddenness of the day, but they're all better now."
Actually, it wasn't that sudden; it's just that no one expected it to happen so quickly.
No sooner had Song Lili removed some inappropriate items from the house than Luo Juan arrived in a large group with her entourage.
Who wouldn't be surprised? And who wouldn't secretly feel fortunate?
Fortunately, we acted quickly and didn't let them block us at home, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to explain ourselves no matter how hard we tried.
Therefore, in general, what happened that day was all bark and no bite, with no significant consequences.
However, only those who know the situation truly understand the dangers that lie ahead.
So, being able to escape it is really lucky. If it weren't for the fact that you can't pray to Buddha, I would have wanted to go to a temple to pray. I'm so lucky.
Words cannot express my gratitude; all I can say right now is thank you and be grateful.
