Chapter 121 In our Song family, your master has the final say!

"He Zhaodi, what? You want to stay here too? I'll just sell you for ten bucks!"

Wang Cuihua turned around and looked at Bai Wei with a shrewd look in her droopy eyes, seemingly joking.

It seemed that as long as Bai Wei gave her money, she could easily sell Zhaodi to her.

Bai Wei frowned, disgusted with Wang Cuihua's greedy face.

"No, mother!"

Zhaodi and Mengdi have completely different personalities, and she is unwilling to leave the He family.

After taking a reluctant look at Mengdi, Zhaodi hurried forward and caught up with Wang Cuihua.

Wang Cuihua saw that Bai Wei had no intention of asking for Zhaodi, her eyes were filled with disappointment. She tightly grasped the money, turned around and left in a hurry, as if she was afraid that Bai Wei would regret it at any time.

He Zhaodi followed her closely and happened to meet Song Qinian who was coming back from breakfast.

"Captain Song, good morning."

Zhaodi called out obediently, but Wang Cuihua just rolled her eyes at Song Qinian.

She just hated that her man was incompetent. Although he was much older than Song Qinian, his position was several levels lower than his.

She was not afraid either, because her husband needed to give face to Song Qinian, and as a woman, she did not have to abide by the rules of the army.

"Hurry up! Go home and make egg custard for your brother. He was clamoring for it this morning!"

Wang Cuihua walked forward hurriedly, and Zhaodi could only lower her head and follow her.

Song Qinian just felt confused. When he returned home and pushed open the gate, he saw Mengdi and Bai Wei standing in the yard.

"Mengdi? Your mother and elder sister are gone, why are you still here?"

Song Qinian asked as he walked into the yard.

Mengdi pinched the corner of her clothes nervously, not daring to look at Song Qinian. She just lowered her head, stammering and not daring to speak.

"Qinian, you're back..."

Bai Wei only now realized that the decision she had just made was not approved by Song Qinian.

Both of them looked guilty, and Song Qinian also realized that something was wrong.

He waved and walked into the house.

"It's cold outside, let's go back inside and talk."

Song Qinian returned to the house and took out the aluminum lunch box from his arms, which contained steamed buns, millet porridge, eggs, and salted vegetables.

Bai Wei took Mengdi's hand and went into the house together.

But Mengdi stood at the door and didn't dare to go into the house.

Song Qinian turned around and saw the wound on Mengdi's face. She had kept her head down and he didn't see it.

"Mengdi, what's wrong with your face? Did your mother beat you again?"

Thinking of the last time Zhaodi was punished to kneel in the snow, Song Qinian was not surprised at all that Wang Cuihua would hit Mengdi.

Mengdi just nodded silently and glanced at Bai Wei.

"Qinian, I..."

Just as Bai Wei was about to speak, Song Qinian stood up and walked into the house.

"You two should eat first. I'll go get the medicine box. Her face is badly injured and she needs some medicine."

Song Qinian went to get the medicine, and Bai Wei took Mengdi to sit at the table.

She went to the kitchen to get bowls and chopsticks, served millet porridge to Mengdi, gave her half of a steamed bun, peeled an egg for her and put it in her hand.

"Mengdi, you eat."

"This egg...can I...can I eat it?"

Mengdi looked at the white and tender egg in her hand. It was a whole egg! Not only the egg white, but also the egg yolk, the whole thing was in her hand.

"Of course you can eat it. It's just an egg."

Bai smiled slightly and pinched a small piece of egg and put it into Mengdi's mouth.

She was very thin, so thin that Bai Wei couldn't help but want to feed her more.

Mengdi ate the eggs in small bites, tears streaming down her face silently.

"Why are you crying? Don't cry. Your face is broken and it must be painful if your tears are soaked in it."

Bai Wei said this with a distressed look.

Her words made Mengdi cry even harder. She had just shed tears silently at first, but now she couldn't hold it back anymore. Tears fell one by one and she started sobbing.

"Why are you crying?"

Song Qinian came out with a medicine box. Seeing Mengdi crying so hard, he quickly opened the box.

"Does it hurt?"

"No, no. It's... it's... never before has anyone cared about me so much..."

Mengdi stretched out her hands, one on the left and one on the right, and kept wiping her tears, but the tears could not stop falling.

She has always been the strongest one in the He family. Even if her mother beat her hard, she would never cry.

People always become weak and aggrieved when they are being comforted.

"This child..."

Bai Wei took out her handkerchief and carefully wiped away the tears from Mengdi's face.

Song Qinian handed the medicine over, and Bai Wei carefully applied it to Mengdi.

The skin on her face was broken, and the pain made her facial features wrinkled when the medicine touched her face, but Mengdi gritted her teeth and said nothing.

"Song Qinian... I spent ten yuan to buy Mengdi."

Bai Wei said as she applied the medicine.

"Hmm, huh?! What did you say?"

Song Qinian was observing the injuries on Mengdi's hands and feet, and his brows were furrowed.

When he first heard Bai Wei's words, he just nodded. When he came to his senses, he looked at Bai Wei in shock.

Bai Wei simply told Mengdi everything that had happened before, and Mengdi didn't even dare to move.

Captain Song's family must be the same as his, with the man in the family making the decisions.

If Captain Song doesn't allow her to stay, what should she do? Mother will definitely not allow her to enter the He family again!

Mengdi was in a state of confusion until Song Qinian spoke.

"You have the final say on family matters."

Hearing this, Mengdi straightened her waist suddenly and looked at Song Qinian in disbelief.

With her movement, Bai Wei had more medicine on her hands, but she didn't notice the pain and asked excitedly.

"Captain Song, do you mean... can I stay?"

"Of course. In our family, your master has the final say."

Song Qinian smiled, glanced at Bai Wei and said.

"You are smart. You know how to keep Meng Di by taking her as your apprentice. You also give the He family a chance to step down. This is a good thing to do!"

Song Qinian smiled as he served Bai Wei a bowl of porridge and handed it to her.

Mengdi was completely shocked.

She watched Song Qinian peeling eggs for Bai Wei and picking up pickles for her, her eyes full of tenderness.

Such a thing has never happened in her family before!

Whenever Dad sat at the table, it was always Mom who served him. If Mom was too busy, the sisters would do the work. In the He family, men never had to work.

"Then you don't blame me? I spent ten dollars!"

Bai Wei looked at Song Qinian with some joy in her eyes. Even she was a little surprised that Song Qinian didn't have any objection at all and let her keep Mengdi.

"Indeed, ten dollars is not a small amount."

Song Qinian placed the peeled egg in Bai Wei's hand, nodded seriously, looked at Meng Di and said.

"Mengdi, when you grow up, you can return the ten yuan to us, okay?"

His eyes were full of smiles and his tone was gentle, and it was obviously a joke.

But Mengdi really listened to it, her little face full of seriousness, and she nodded vigorously.

"Okay! I will definitely earn ten dollars and return it to Master!"
