Back at the Song family home, Old Master Song talked with Song Yun for a long time.
Song Yun felt guilty that she was already so old and still had to trouble her parents, brother and sister-in-law.
Xu Guiying gave a final summary: "Third sister, if you don't want us to worry, hurry up and settle on the house. We're family, why are we being so polite?"
Grandpa Song gave Xu Guiying an approving look.
Finally, Song Yun nodded in agreement.
The day after tomorrow, the contract will be signed, and the entire Song family will go to Song Yun's new home to help with cleaning.
People are in high spirits when they have a happy occasion, and everyone is all smiles. The residents of Heping Lane are all longtime neighbors, and they are happy for Song Yun as well.
When Song Xiaoxiao came home from school on the weekend, she found that the house had been booked. She liked the yard of the new house very much. It was bright and tidy, with three rooms: a main room, a kitchen, and a bathroom.
Although small, it has all the vital organs.
Seeing her daughter happy, Song Yun felt relieved.
Xu Guiying then organized everyone to move Song Yun's belongings to her new home.
After arriving at their new home, Song's grandparents helped cook a meal. The whole family was there, including Song Zhicheng's family, and the two tables of people ate in the yard.
Song Yun was filled with emotion, grateful that she still had her family.
After dinner, some swept the floor, some washed the dishes, and some moved chairs. Only after everything in Song Yun's house was tidied up did everyone prepare to leave.
Xu Guiying said something half-jokingly.
"Second brother, if it's suitable for you, you can move in with us. Our whole family can live close by and look after each other."
Song Xinfu glanced at the old woman.
Could it be that the old woman has found out some inside information?
Song Zhicheng readily agreed, "Okay, let's go back and work hard to make money!"
Anyway, the grocery store business is on track, and it won't be long before they save enough money to buy a big house, at least as big as the eldest brother's. They have three sons and will have grandchildren in the future, so a small house won't be enough.
Grandpa Song also glanced at Xu Guiying, "Big Dog's wife is right, we're waiting for your good news."
Lu Hui is a down-to-earth person, and she felt envious when she saw that her family members all lived nearby.
After Song Zhicheng's family left, Song Xinfu and his family also prepared to leave.
Xu Guiying was stopped by Song Yun.
Song Yun: "Sister-in-law, wait a minute, I want to ask you about the used bicycle."
Xu Guiying narrowed her eyes, turned around and waved to Song Xinfu.
"You guys go back first, I'll be back in a bit."
Song Xiaoxiao stayed behind to listen too, "Mom, when are you going to buy a car?"
Song Yun: "You go back first, I want to talk to your aunt."
Song Xiaoxiao said "oh" and went back to her room to read.
The furniture was moved from the previous house. Song Xiaoxiao rolled around on the bed, thinking how nice it was to live in the new house.
Song Xiaoxiao never imagined that she could leave the village, live in Heping Lane, and even ride a bicycle to school.
Xu Guiying guessed that Song Yun had something to say, so she stayed behind.
Song Yun looked mysterious, and before she could even speak, she looked embarrassed and shy.
It would be a lie for Xu Guiying to say she wasn't surprised.
"Third sister, what's wrong?"
Song Yun gritted her teeth and told Mo Hong about it.
Since Song Yun injured her hand, she hired someone to help her shop. Usually, Song Yun uses her left hand to help clear the dishes, and occasionally people from the police station come over for a meal.
Mo Hong comes to eat breakfast almost every morning.
Just the night before, Mo Hong left the police station and went to a restaurant to eat dumplings.
Mo Hong was stern and rarely smiled; his face was dark.
Song Yun felt a little intimidated every time she saw him.
After finishing his meal, Mo Hong stared straight at Song Yun.
Song Yun thought there was something wrong with her shop that needed to be rectified, and she was so nervous that her voice was trembling.
After she said, "What's wrong, Officer Mo?" she heard Mo Hong ask her if she wanted to try remarrying.
Song Yun was startled and at a loss for what to do.
Mo Hong explained his situation: his wife passed away more than ten years ago, he has no children, and he has been busy with work all these years and has no plans to remarry. After getting to know Song Yun these days, he felt that Song Yun was a very good person.
If they get married, Mo Hong will treat Song Xiaoxiao as his own daughter, and he will not ask her to have another child after marriage.
He wasn't in a hurry and told Song Yun to think it over carefully.
Song Yun thought about it for two days but couldn't make up her mind, so she decided to ask Xu Guiying for her opinion tonight.
The police station where Mo Hong works is not the same one as the one in Heping Lane.
Xu Guiying had never met Mo Hong before, and she hesitated for a moment before asking about Mo Hong's personality.
Song Yun: "Aside from being a bit dark-skinned, he's alright. He's organized in his actions and speech, and he dresses impeccably, not like someone who doesn't care about cleanliness. His gaze is upright and honest, unlike Zhuang Pinghua's shrewdness."
Xu Guiying smiled after hearing this.
Song Yun coughed lightly.
Xu Guiying thought for a moment and said, "From what you said, I'm still quite inclined to go for it. We can try getting to know each other for a while. If it doesn't work out, we'll talk about it later. If you want to learn more about it and develop the relationship further, you should talk to Xiaoxiao about it."
Song Yun nodded, "I know that. I'll try it out for a while and see."
Xu Guiying: "Okay, I'll keep this a secret for now, and we'll talk about it when you have the results."
"Sister-in-law, thank you so much."
Xu Guiying was also happy for Song Yun, "We don't talk about these things as family."
Song Yun is thirty-eight years old this year. There is no one in the Song family who is ugly. Since Song Yun stopped doing farm work, her condition has improved significantly in the past few months.
Life is still so long ahead of her, it's good that Song Yun has found a companion.
That evening, Xu Guiying returned home, and her second son had already taken his medicine and gone to sleep.
Xu Guiying is off tomorrow, and she wants to take her second son to see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor. If Song Xinfu is off, he can take the medicine when the time is right. Parents can't leave everything to the elderly.
