Chapter 438 Brother~ (Additional Update)
Fu Jingyou previously introduced himself as a migrant worker from the south.
When Zhou Hong saw the situation of the two children, he became extremely suspicious.
You really can't tell that he is from a peasant background and a kid brought from the village?
This one looks more like a city kid than many other city kids!
It looks like he was raised by a big leader, and his future is immeasurable!
In contrast, Zhou Hong looked at the little black boy in his arms, feeling embarrassed and complicated.
There is no harm without comparison.
How can they raise their children so well?
He used to send money to his mother-in-law's family often.
How did his child become like this?
He was dark and thin, with arms and legs as thin as straw stalks.
Zhou Hong was in a complicated mood. After praising the Fu family one by one, he did not forget his business.
He repeated what he had said to Fu Jingyou before.
Zhou Hong quickly put the boy down in his arms, patted his son's head and greeted him, saying with a smile:
"Aunt, sister-in-law...I might be in trouble more often in the future!"
Zhou Hong didn't come here on his own.
Fu Jingyou went to the street office to inquire about the wiring, and on his way back he happened to go to the ice factory to work.
Zhou Hong came here with Fu Jingyou. In addition to bringing the children to familiarize themselves with the route, Zhou Hong also brought some things.
He was holding the child and a bag of rations in his hand.
There was also a box of soda, peach cakes, and brown sugar. Zhou Hong couldn't carry the child, so he asked Fu Jingyou to carry them.
The things were given to the Fu family as a favor.
"Isn't it just to look after the child? I don't have anything else to do, so I'll just watch over him together. Why did you bring so many things?"
Tang Mei looks at Fu Jingyou.
Fu Jingyou rubbed the back of his neck and said:
"I said no, but Brother Zhou insisted and argued for a long time at the ice factory door."
"Comrade Zhou, I've heard from the children that you've been helping Xiao Fu a lot since he started working with you...Now that this is a child's matter, it's all about helping each other!"
Tang Mei looked at Zhou Hong and said sincerely:
"Child, just send it here with peace of mind, and don't take the things!"
Zhou Hong quickly waved his hands: "No, no, no, Auntie, that's not what I meant. This little thing is nothing. It just gives me peace of mind and makes me feel at ease!"
Zhou Hong is not afraid of hard work, but he feels sorry for his children.
Wawa lost his mother when he was young, and he and Wawa were rarely together.
Now that we are finally together, he is busy making a living and has no time to take care of me.
I'm young and I don't feel comfortable leaving my family behind.
I have to take the car with me every day before dawn, and the children are so tired that they can't get enough rest.
When I first brought him here from the Northeast, he was at least energetic. But these past few days he has been listless and his complexion has failed.
Zhou Hong had no choice.
If Zhou Hong had not had contact with Fu Jingyou and knew Fu Jingyou's character, he would not have dared to send the child here rashly.
Now that I have made up my mind to send it, I must make my attitude clear.
“Auntie, just accept the things and don’t pull them. Otherwise, I’ll be embarrassed to send this child here!”
Tang Mei sighed and looked at the young couple at home.
The young couple looked at her, waiting for her to make a decision.
Tang Mei looked at Zhou Hong again, and sympathized with him, a rough man from the north, that it was not easy to take care of a child, so she had to relent.
"Well, then, what's the child's name?"
Zhou Hong breathed a sigh of relief, smiled, and carried the things into the house with Fu Jingyou.
"Shi'an, my name is Zhou Shi'an."
"Oh, this name has a good meaning!"
"Haha, yes."
Zhou Hong took Zhou Shian’s rations and also took some things worth several dollars.
Those things are decent enough to be used by serious relatives.
After all, the Fu family and Zhou Hong do not have that kind of relationship, so Tang Mei felt a little embarrassed.
It was lunchtime, and Tang Mei invited Zhou Hong to have lunch at her home.
"Haha, Auntie, we'll have a chance to eat after dinner. I have a truckload of goods waiting to be delivered."
Zhou Hong waved his hand and declined, "I have to get busy first. Shi An, I'll leave Shi An to you guys first. I'll come pick him up this afternoon!"
After agreeing with the Fu family, Zhou Hong waved goodbye and left.
He walked to the gate of the yard and turned around to look.
In the small courtyard, the Fu family was having a great time, but the black boy in his family was alone and looked very pitiful.
It is not easy to find a reliable person to help take care of the children temporarily.
Opportunities are hard to come by, so why should you feel uncomfortable?
Zhou Hong hardened his heart and left.
Zhou Shian frowned, his dark eyes staring at the gate of the yard.
Seeing that his father was really gone, he pouted, his eyes suddenly turned red, and his eyes were filled with tears, but the tears refused to fall.
Tang Mei coaxed him like she usually did with Dabao and Erbao:
"Shi'an, have you eaten when you came here? Come on, go inside with grandma and eat."
Fu Jingyou and Zhou Hong are brothers, so their children are naturally of the same generation.
Dabao and Erbao call Tang Mei grandma.
Tang Mei subconsciously relegated Zhou Shian and the two children in the family to the same generation.
Just call everyone grandma grandma, so as to avoid calling her by so many different names that it sounds like a vegetable market.
Zhou Shian broke free, unwilling to let Tang Mei touch him.
"This child..."
Tang Mei was a little helpless.
Lu Miao watched for a while, then waved to Dabao and Erbao and said,
"This is Brother Shi An. You have to call me brother from now on. Do you understand?"
Mingyi was dazed and tried to pout as he said:
"I, I am the older brother, my sister's brother."
Mingxia was not xenophobic. She tilted her head and thought carefully about what her mother had said, then walked to Zhou Shian in small steps.
"Brother~"
Xiao Mingxia spoke softly, holding Zhou Shian's hand awkwardly with his little hand.
"Brother, it's time to eat."
The three adults in the yard were a little nervous.
I was afraid that Zhou Shian would not be able to adapt and would push Erbao away just like he pushed Tang Mei away just now.
However……
No.
Maybe children are more accepting of each other.
Zhou Shian looked at Xiao Mingxia with a stern face for a while, and silently let her hold his hand.
Seeing this, Lu Miao quickly clapped his hands:
"Okay, Xia Xia, take your brother into the house and sit down. Mom will serve you some food."
Ming Xia was very obedient. She bared her teeth, held Zhou Shian's hand with both hands, and moved to the main room.
There was an extra armchair next to the long table in the main hall of the Fu family, compared to the past.
Dabao and Erbao sat facing each other, while Zhou Shian sat alone next to them.
Little Mingxia was very curious about her new brother.
Soft and blinking her dark eyes, she gave her favorite fried eggs to her new brother:
"Brother eats eggs."
Zhou Shian moved his lips, but before he could move, Mingyi hugged Xiaowan and started crying.
"My eggs, those are my eggs..."
Usually the brother and sister share their food.
If the younger sister doesn’t like to eat something, she will just give it to her older brother.
Mingyi felt that Egg Sister should also be given to him.
As a result, my sister gave it to someone else and didn't give it to him as before.
Mingyi is no longer able to do it.
Mingyi's defense was broken.
Fu Jingyou wanted to interfere, but Lu Miao gently shook his head to stop him.
Zhou Shian will only stay here today.
He will come over later.
It also takes time for children to get along with each other.
