The rain stopped, and it was time to go to work. After being cooped up at home for ten days, Buling suddenly felt that going to work was a wonderful thing. She must have gone crazy from being cooped up at home.
After washing up and eating breakfast, Wu Yuanyuan called out from outside, "Bu Ling, hurry up, we're going to be late!"
"Here I am!"
Buling slung her bag over her shoulder, went out of the house, and locked the door. "Sister Yuanyuan, can you give me a ride? I don't want to ride a bike."
"Hurry up!" Wu Yuanyuan already knew what kind of person Bu Ling was; he was the type who would rather lie down than sit up.
"Thank you, Sister Yuanyuan, you're the best!" Buling quickly stepped down the stairs and sat in the back seat: "Let's go!"
Wu Yuanyuan was speechless. How childish! But she still went along with Bu Ling's suggestion and rode her bike out of the compound.
When they arrived at the restaurant, Sister Ma and Zhu Zhizhi were already there. Seeing the two of them, they greeted them with smiles: "Xiao Wu and Xiao Bu, you're here?"
"Sister Ma, Sister Zhizhi, it's been a long time!" Buling
"Sister Ma, Zhizhi." Wu Yuanyuan
The four didn't exchange many pleasantries. The state-run restaurant hadn't been cleaned for over ten days, and with the rain, it was not only covered in a layer of dust but also extremely damp. Upon seeing this, the two put down their bags and joined the cleaning team.
After cleaning, Sister Ma boiled a kettle of water as usual. The four of them sat together and chatted about what had happened to them in the past few days. The stories of Bu Ling and the others were all ordinary, but Sister Ma's life had been full of ups and downs.
"What do you think Tan Xiao is thinking?" Sister Ma asked in return after finishing her gossip.
This was the first time Zhu Zhizhi had heard about Tan Xiao: "Sister Ma, are you talking about Master's daughter?"
Sister Ma nodded.
"She raised Han Yu's child with that mistress?" Wu Yuanyuan was genuinely bewildered. Even though she prided herself on being knowledgeable and worldly-wise, she couldn't understand Tan Xiao's bizarre actions.
What a broad mind it takes to forgive a cheating husband, and to selflessly accept his and his mistress's child as her own. I don't understand, they really don't understand.
To be honest, Bu Ling really didn't understand Tan Xiao's thought process. She thought Tan Xiao would see the error of her ways, but she didn't expect her to fall deeper and deeper into love, to the point of being completely obsessed.
Zhu Zhizhi was completely confused. Seeing this, Wu Yuanyuan pulled her aside and explained the situation in detail, successfully leaving Zhu Zhizhi speechless.
Suddenly, Bu Ling realized something: "Wait a minute, Han Yu has only been in prison for three months, how could he have given birth so quickly?" The timing doesn't add up.
Upon hearing this, Wu Yuanyuan realized that they had been so focused on Tan Xiao's antics that they hadn't considered this possibility.
Sister Ma slowly took a sip of water: "This child was premature, supposedly only seven months old. He was born skinny and weak. I don't know if he can survive."
After saying that, she added, "Even if we could raise them, it would take a huge amount of effort and money."
Zhu Zhizhi clicked her tongue: "Is Master's daughter really that stupid? This is clearly a huge problem!"
The three of them nodded in agreement. Who could disagree?
"However, how did Tan Xiao know that the child had been born?"
"It's all because of Tan Xiao. Even after all this, she still treats Han Yu's family like her own in-laws, visiting them all the time and giving them money and tickets. That's how she got entangled with them," Sister Ma said uncertainly.
Bling was at a loss for words when it came to how to evaluate this matter, well, true love conquers all!
So when Grandpa Tan arrived, all four women stared at him with pity in their eyes. At that moment, even Sister Ma, who loved her child dearly, decided to educate her child properly so that he would never be like Tan Xiao.
Grandpa Tan felt four sympathetic gazes, raised a stiff corner of his mouth, and silently returned to the kitchen. The four women weren't oblivious to his mood; they knew Grandpa Tan was probably in a bad mood, so they kept quiet and went about their business.
Because of the heavy rain, the supply of state-run restaurants was cut in half, and the employees' salaries were also reduced sharply.
No one seems to mind. We don't even know how good the food is yet, so they're already doing a great job.
That evening, upon seeing a figure approaching on a bicycle, Bu Ling decisively abandoned Wu Yuanyuan and happily hopped onto the back of Sang Shen's bicycle.
After Buling was settled, Sangshen pushed off with her feet, and the bicycle started moving: "Shall I take you to the county hospital to buy something?"
“Great! We’re short on vegetables at home anyway.” Bu Ling was very easy to talk to.
The two rode their bicycles to the black market next to the county hospital. This time, thanks to Sangshen, Buling's treatment improved dramatically. Not only was he not charged when he entered, but he was also respectfully invited into a room.
Xie Dong wasn't there; only the uncle who sold the Buling watch last time was there. Sangshen introduced him: "This is Uncle Mu."
Looking at the familiar-looking middle-aged man, Bu Ling glanced meaningfully at Sang Shen and said, "Hello, Uncle Mu. My name is Bu Ling."
Uncle Mu was very perceptive. He noticed the close relationship between the two as soon as they met and treated Bu Ling very well and kindly, which made Bu Ling feel uncomfortable.
No wonder he's in the black market; his ability to speak human language to human and ghost language to ghosts is truly admirable.
"Uncle Mu, have you had anything good these past few days?" Sangshen entered the house, pulled Buling to sit down, and asked directly.
Uncle Mu didn't mince words: "You've come at the perfect time. We've actually received some good stuff today. Would you like to take a look?"
Sangshen nodded reservedly, displaying the demeanor of a leader. Seeing this, Buling also put on an act, sitting upright and looking like a knowledgeable person.
Sangshen looked at Buling in surprise, not understanding what was wrong with her. Just as Buling was about to explain, she saw Uncle Mu come in carrying a bamboo basket on his back. She immediately shut her mouth and gave Sangshen a wink.
