Chapter 56 An Jinfu has a woman hidden at home
"Auntie Xiu, do you think the sofa is okay? If it's not soft enough, I'll bring you a bed." An Nuan adjusted the sofa and felt that it was quite soft, but she still had to ask Zhu Xiu Lian to confirm.
Zhu Xiu Lian didn't expect that she would be able to stay at the An family's house tonight and even have a sofa to sleep on.
You know, she slept on the stairs in the corridor of Old Zhu's house. Because it was on the first floor, it was damp and narrow. There were more than a dozen people in the Zhu family living together, and going up and down the stairs was full of noise.
It's okay if she doesn't get sick, but once she does, it's torture. What's more, the Zhu family doesn't treat her as a human being. Even if she gets sick, she has to get up and do the laundry, cook, feed the pigs, and take care of the children and the elderly.
Zhu Xiu Lian didn't dare to get sick because it would make her feel worse.
But who can control illness?
"Nuannuan, enough is enough. You and your daughter are such good people. I don't know how to repay you." With tears in her eyes, she looked deeply at An's father and An Nuan.
Seeing her sincerity, Father An hurriedly said, "You're welcome. I've heard you say thank you all the time since I took you in."
"But it seems that apart from this, I can't do anything else. Brother, please don't despise me, really." She wiped her tears. If he could like her, she would be willing to be his slave for the rest of her life.
I'm afraid he won't like it, and I don't want to get involved.
"Oh, Aunt Xiu, my dad has already said that neighbors should help each other. You are just too polite." An Nuan eased the atmosphere. In her previous life, her dad and Aunt Xiu would easily end up talking to each other whenever they got along.
One is to avoid suspicion, and the other is that her father only has Ji Linchen's mother in his heart, so both of them are very polite in their words and deeds.
In this life, An Nuan felt that she had to pull strings and let her father see the good in Aunt Xiu.
At this time, An's father's cell phone rang, and An Nuan noticed that it was Ji Linchen's mother calling.
Her father was particularly cautious and told her to be quiet when he went to the balcony to answer the call with his mobile phone.
It was the first time that Zhu Xiu Lian saw a woman being respected by a man, who held her in his hands.
An Nuan pouted and went into the room. When An's father answered the call from Wu Qingqing, she came out with a pair of pajamas, "Auntie Xiu, I'll just have to make do with this one for now. Don't be disgusted. Go take a shower and change into it for bed."
Wu Qingqing, who was about to ask An's father if she had gone to Xu Jiao's father for money, asked: "?"
Aunt Xiu?! Pajamas?! Bath!? Sleep!?
Wu Qingqing didn't hear clearly because An's father covered the receiver. Wu Qingqing shouted, "Brother An? Who is Aunt Xiu? What are you doing? Nuannuan asked her to take a bath? Brother An?"
beep!
The phone hung up.
Wu Qingqing widened her eyes. It had been twelve years, and this was the first time that An Jinfu, that idiot, had hung up on her?
Who is this Aunt Xiu?!
"Sister Wu, what's wrong? Your face changed again? Did something happen to Lin Chen?" Aunt Li couldn't help laughing when she heard her yelling.
Wu Qingqing was furious. "Your family is in trouble now. Stop pretending to be so hypocritical. Did you ask Xu Jiao to pay you back?"
She had to stay calm. It was impossible for An Jinfu, a jerk, to hide a woman at home.
She must have heard it wrong.
"Nuannuan..." An's father glared at An Nuan, and An Nuan frowned, "Dad, what's wrong? Who's calling? Why are you so nervous?"
Father An: "..."
"It's okay, sister. Go take a shower, change into your pajamas and go to bed. I'm going to make a phone call outside." Before leaving, he glared at An Nuan, "You should go to bed too. Even though you don't have classes tomorrow, it's good for your health to go to bed early and get up early."
An Nuan responded with a long, "Okay."
Father An opened the door and went downstairs to answer Wu Qingqing's call. He didn't know if she heard it, but she should not think too much about it.
Aunt Li was baffled by the criticism, but she was no pushover. She also had a mission. "Why are you being so mean? If you want to be mean to me, go find her and get the discharge paperwork yourself. It wasn't her who paid a thousand dollars a night for me to take care of you, Wu Qingqing. Do you think you're so precious?"
Wu Qingqing's pupils shrank sharply. "What!? Aunt Li, why don't you go rob a bank? You only give the caregiver in the bed next to you two hundred or one thousand a night? Aren't you afraid of getting struck by lightning?"
Aunt Li put her hands on her hips and said, "That's funny. Do you think I'm asking you to spend money? The money I'm receiving is from Xu Jiao. Why do you feel bad about her money? Sister Wu, you're not feeling bad because Xu Jiao is your future daughter-in-law, are you?"
"Aunt Li!"
"Oh, you're so full of energy. That's right, you sprained your waist, not your brain. Sister Wu, I just heard you yelling on the phone. Is it because you're in the hospital and Nuannuan's father is looking for another woman?"
"Oh, that's really interesting. But, Sister Wu, you and Nuannuan's father haven't gotten married yet, and it's not illegal for him to have a woman at home. Why are you so angry? And you want to deny her a legitimate status?"
"Get out of here. I don't need you to stay with me tonight. Go and ask Xu Jiao to pay me back." Wu Qingqing was furious. If her waist hadn't gotten better, she would have wanted to slap Aunt Li twice.
Aunt Li is a gossipy person. If I don't shut her up today, who knows what will happen in the alley after she is discharged from the hospital.
"What a big shot! You told me to get out, so I'll get out? Sister Wu, since you're sick and we're all women, I'd like to kindly remind you that it's best for women not to be so smart, especially when asking a man in person if he's hiding another woman behind my back."
"If you were a legal wife, it would be normal to ask, but you're not. Even if you were, it would be shameful if you couldn't tie your man down."
After completing her task, Aunt Li turned around to take care of the bed next door.
Wu Qingqing was so angry that she gritted her teeth. At this time, An's father called back. Wu Qingqing wanted to ask him, "An Jinfu, is there someone hiding in your house?" But she also wanted to save face.
