"If you feel comfortable, you can stay here for a few more days."
It’s better to stay here and never go back.
Song Shishi got angry when she thought about Zheng Peilan being deceived by her scumbag father when she returned home.
"I would like to stay here forever, but your dad is alone at home, and there is no one to cook for him when he goes back. How pitiful is that?"
Zheng Peilan said this and looked around under the guidance of Meng Xunzhou.
What's so pitiful? The scumbag dad probably wishes they weren't at home so he could stay with his mistress and bastard.
Song Shishi moved her luggage to the main house. While packing, she was thinking about Song Zhenhua.
No, she can't just sit there and wait for death. Since it's hard to take action against her scumbag father, what about his mistress?
She started with her mistress and the bastard.
...
...
A woman who can give birth to a child for a married man is obviously not a good person.
"My goodness, you have too little furniture here. There's nowhere to put your things. Are you going to put them outside in the future?"
Zheng Peilan turned around and couldn't help complaining.
Song Shishi doesn't have money to buy furniture now, and Mr. Gong hasn't settled the royalties for her recent translation of documents yet.
So she just laughed it off at this time.
"Although your environment is nice, there are too few things, making the house look empty. And the tree in the yard is not very good either. It's obvious that it won't bear flowers or fruits."
Song Shishi came out of the main room holding the quilt and prepared to put it in the yard to dry in the sun.
"Let me do it." Meng Xunzhou walked over, took the quilt from her naturally, and walked to a bamboo pole against the wall to dry it.
"I don't like this tree either. I plan to dig it up and plant some flowers and vegetables."
Song Shishi walked to Zheng Peilan's side and said, "It just so happened that when Lili and I came back from Huaiqing, we brought back some seeds that we bought before. When the vegetables are ripe, we can save a lot of money."
Zheng Peilan nodded, "You two really need to spend less."
After Zheng Peilan finished speaking, she waved to Meng Xunzhou again, "Xunzhou, accompany your aunt for a walk."
"Mom, where are you going? I'm going to make lunch soon, so don't go too far."
"Got it. Xunzhou and I will just walk around here. Go do your thing and don't worry about me."
After saying this, Zheng Peilan saw Meng Xunzhou coming over, so she turned around and walked out.
As Meng Xunzhou passed by Song Shishi, he gently patted her shoulder.
"Don't worry, I'm here and nothing will happen to Aunt Zheng."
With Meng Xunzhou around, Song Shishi naturally felt relieved and no longer worried.
Because they were going to cook today, Xu Li and Song Shishi cleaned the kitchen again before starting to cook.
A series of kitchen utensils and tableware such as bowls and chopsticks were all brought back from Huaiqing by them, even the seasonings, so there was no need to buy any of them.
Xu Li helped wash and cut vegetables, while Song Shishi washed the pot.
The two of them cooperated skillfully, just like they did in Huai Qing's yard before.
"I remember we brought the pickled radish and cabbage here. I'll go get them."
Song Shishi wanted to eat pickled vegetables, so she said hello to Xu Li and walked towards the main courtyard.
She temporarily placed the things she brought in the east chamber.
Just as she walked out of the hall and was about to go to the east side room to get it, she heard a knock on the door.
Song Shishi walked to the middle of the main courtyard and listened for a while.
“Boom boom boom…”
At this moment, there was a clear knock on the door, and at the same time, a voice came, "Lili, Comrade Song, are you home?"
Stone?
Hearing the sound of stones, Song Shishi walked quickly outside, passed the hanging flower gate, and came to the front yard. The sound of stones became clearer and clearer.
"Coming." She answered and then opened the door.
Outside the door, Shitou's forehead was covered with sweat, and there was a cart behind him.
On the cart was a large wardrobe.
"Comrade Song."
When he saw Song Shishi, Shi Tou smiled and greeted her, but his eyes kept glancing towards the yard from time to time.
Song Shishi naturally understood who Shitou was looking for, and reminded him, "Lili is in the small kitchen at the back."
Shitou nodded. "Before I came to Beijing, my master asked me to make furniture for you. Last time, Lili told me that you bought a house and were moving in today. I found a ready-made wardrobe from my uncle and carved some patterns on it in a hurry."
Song Shishi walked to the wardrobe and touched the carvings on it. It was really beautiful and exquisite.
It is enough to see that the stone was made with great care.
"Is this your betrothal gift to Lili?"
Shitou's face turned red like a cooked shrimp. "No, this is something that Master specifically told me to give you. I will make Lili's betrothal gift myself in the future."
This honest child really couldn't help teasing, so Song Shishi stopped joking and turned around to open the door to make it easier for Shitou to move the wardrobe in.
Shitou slowly lifted the wardrobe from the cart and prepared to carry it on his back.
Song Shishi frowned. Such a big wardrobe, even if there is nothing in it now, it is still not light.
How can one move the stone?
No wonder Shi's forehead was covered in sweat. It turned out that he had dragged the wardrobe from his uncle's place here by himself.
Song Shishi was about to step forward to help when Meng Xunzhou and Zheng Peilan came back.
"Let me do it."
Meng Xunzhou walked over and stood between Song Shishi and the wardrobe, then worked together with Shitou to move the wardrobe into the courtyard.
After Meng Xunzhou and Shitou went in, Song Shishi finally saw Zheng Peilan who had been standing behind them.
"Mom, what did you buy?"
Zheng Peilan was holding a small bamboo basket in her hand, which was covered with a piece of cloth.
"You don't have much money right now, and you have to move out alone, so I went to buy you some meat. Don't be hard on yourselves just because you're short of money."
Zheng Peilan said this, holding Song Shishi in her arms and walking towards the main courtyard.
"Mom, I have money. Although my salary from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has not been paid yet, I can get my royalties on time. My daily expenses don't cost much, so it won't have much of an impact."
"Even if you have money, you have to find a way to save it. Don't you still have 10,000 yuan of house payment to pay?"
Knowing that Zheng Peilan was worried about her, Song Shishi stopped arguing. She hugged Zheng Peilan's arm and said coquettishly, "Mom, you are still the best to me."
Zheng Peilan said disdainfully: "You are already so old, and you still act like a spoiled child. How can people see you like that?"
Although her words were accusations, Zheng Peilan gently helped Song Shishi smooth her messy hair.
"I just like to act like a spoiled brat to my mom."
Song Shishi didn't care about that. Everyone in this courtyard was her own family, so there was nothing to be ashamed of.
Seeing Shitou coming out of the main house, Song Shishi pointed to the hall next to the east side room.
"Shitou, you can go to the small kitchen at the back from there."
"Okay, thank you." Shitou thanked him without any hesitation and went straight through the hall to the small kitchen in the backyard.
Song Shishi turned her gaze towards the main house again.
Meng Xunzhou and Shitou went in together, why haven’t they come out yet?
