Chapter 104 He's got problems everywhere except his head.
Zhang Chunxue raised her hand and patted him on the spot where he wasn't injured: "Hey kid, why are you dodging? Mom needs to take your measurements so we can make clothes that fit you!"
The word "Mom" brought tears to Song Yanshen's eyes. He obediently lay down and dared not move.
The old man next to him sighed, "When this child was brought to the ward yesterday, we all said with pity that the child was so pitiful and wondered how he would live in the future."
"I never expected that he would be adopted by you, little sister, in the blink of an eye... He really met a kind person!"
Zhang Chunxue just smiled and said, "I guess it's fate that brought us together! I can't say whether I had good intentions or not. I just wanted my child to have a good life in the future and not have to live that kind of life anymore."
Everyone else praised her.
An older woman with a slightly crooked mouth, who was near the window, curled her lip and said, "I think you're just throwing money away to adopt a wild child that came from who-knows-where!"
Aren't you afraid your man will break your legs?!
Zhang Chunxue's face darkened. She reached out and patted Song Yanshen's head before coldly looking at her: "Auntie, you're really meddling! Who I adopt, whether I have money to burn or not, is none of your business."
"Even if I'm rich, that's all. Why are you so concerned?"
She crossed her arms and looked at the crooked-mouthed old woman: "Or do you think I'd use this money to support someone like you, a complete stranger who meddles in everything?"
The old woman with the crooked mouth turned pale: "How dare you talk like that? Who wants you to support them? My family has plenty of money!"
"I'm just standing up for your man! Do you want him to know that you adopted a mute little girl who can't even speak?"
As she spoke, she suddenly had a look of realization on her face: "Oh, I get it. The two daughters you just brought are yours, so you don't have a son, and your husband can't have a son with you either, which is why you want to adopt one!"
She looked at him with disdain: "Thinking about it that way, your man is even more pitiful! Not only does he not have his own son, but he also has to raise a son who has nothing to do with him!"
Just as Zhang Chunxue was about to retort, Zhong Xiaoxiao angrily spoke up: "Grandma, what nonsense are you spouting? My father passed away six years ago! My mother has three sons, what do you mean my mother can't have a son!"
Zhang Chunxue patted her: "Alright, Xiaoxiao, don't waste your breath on this kind of person."
"She's just jealous, and whether or not a woman can have a son isn't a standard for judging her. There's no need for us to explain so much to her."
Zhong Xiaoxiao nodded heavily, agreeing with her mother's reasoning.
The old woman with the crooked mouth turned pale and couldn't help but mutter to herself again.
"Having three sons and then adopting a little mute... isn't that insane?"
Zhang Chunxue rolled her eyes at her: "You're not crazy, you're crazy in every other way except for your brain, otherwise why would you be at the hospital?"
The old woman with the crooked mouth turned green with anger. Just as she was about to speak, Zhang Chunxue added, "Your family is quite rich. No one will say anything if you don't adopt children, but what business is it of yours!"
"I think the money you have can only be used to treat all the ailments you have all over your body!"
The old woman with the crooked mouth didn't expect Zhang Chunxue to start cursing right away. She was stunned for a moment, then started howling and got off the bed, intending to scratch Zhang Chunxue.
"You little bitch! I'll tear your mouth apart!"
Zhong Xiaoxiao immediately assumed a fighting stance.
If that old woman with the crooked mouth really dares to make a move, she will stand in front of her mother and absolutely not let her hurt her mother in the slightest!
Song Yanshen grinned, clenched his fists, and stared intently at the crooked-mouthed old woman.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Chunxue immediately rolled up her sleeves and said, "Okay, come on!"
"You think I'm afraid of you? I'm going to beat you until your brain is fried!"
The old woman with the crooked mouth didn't really intend to fight. After all, she was old, and because of her illness, she had difficulty walking. She was all alone, and the mother and daughter were opposite her. If a fight broke out, she would be at a disadvantage.
So she just wanted to scare Zhang Chunxue and didn't want to appear weak.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Chunxue didn't indulge her at all.
As soon as Zhang Chunxue got aggressive, she immediately backed down, sat down again, and snorted twice: "Hmph! I'm magnanimous, I won't bother with someone like you!"
Zhang Chunxue rolled her eyes and turned her head to see Zhong Xiaoxiao and Song Yanshen looking at her with admiration.
Zhong Xiaoxiao gave a thumbs up: "Mom, you're amazing!"
Song Yanshen nodded vigorously on the side.
Zhang Chunxue, however, was unconvinced: "This is nothing! Look at this old woman, her fighting ability is not even as good as your grandma's!"
Zhong Xiaoxiao thought about it and agreed, after all, Liu Cuie was really difficult to deal with.
The old woman with the crooked mouth heard this and muttered under her breath about how unfilial she was.
Zhang Chunxue couldn't be bothered to pay any attention to her.
At noon, Zhang Chunxue asked Zhong Xiaoxiao to accompany Song Yanshen while she and Song Yanshen went to the hospital cafeteria to get their lunch.
When I returned with my food, I saw that Song Xingzhi had also arrived, carrying several lunchboxes.
"Why are you here?" Zhang Chunxue was sometimes surprised.
"I was thinking of bringing you food, but when I arrived, Xiaoxiao told me that you had already gone to get food, Chunxue," Song Xingzhi said with a smile as he opened the lunchboxes one by one. "Then consider it an extra meal. It's good that Xiaoshen is weak, so he should eat more to help him recover."
As soon as the lunchbox was opened, a rich aroma of food wafted out.
Seeing the glistening red braised pork chops with scallions and the distinctly colored scrambled eggs with tomatoes in the lunchbox, Song Yanshen couldn't help but swallow hard.
Zhang Chunxue nodded in agreement: "You're right, Xiao Shen needs to eat more... He's so thin right now, he's practically skin and bones."
The atmosphere among the group was initially very harmonious, but unexpectedly, the old woman with the crooked mouth, while munching on a steamed bun, glanced slyly at their faces and then suddenly let out a cold laugh.
"That girl just said her dad died six years ago. This child looks seven or eight years old. Could he be the child of your extramarital affair?"
"Because they were afraid of being discovered, they abandoned the child. After the man died, they found the child and took him back under the guise of adoption."
She slapped her thigh and exclaimed, "What a brilliant plan!"
She even yelled at Zhong Xiaoxiao, "Oh, you child, you still feel sorry for this bastard! Your mother has wronged your father!"
Upon hearing these words, not only Zhang Chunxue and her group, but everyone in the ward changed their expressions.
What nonsense is this old woman spouting?!
