She glanced around the ward and asked in surprise, "Where's Xiaobao?"
"You're like this now. I'm afraid Xiaobao will be scared if he sees you, so I asked Xu Li to take him out to play."
Looking at Su Yaqin's messy hair, the redness and swelling on her cheeks, and the bruises on her arms, Song Shishi felt very uncomfortable.
After all, it was because of her that Su Yaqin offended that shrew and was bullied.
How lucky she was to meet someone who was so kind to her.
"Alas... I have never been beaten like this in my life. If my husband saw this, he would probably be so angry that he would..."
Su Yaqin kept talking, while Song Shishi lowered her head, her eyes silently red.
She stood up, walked behind Su Yaqin, and gently combed Su Yaqin's hair with her fingers.
Su Yaqin's hair tie was probably lost when she was struggling with the woman.
...
...
She simply untied the hair tie from her hair.
Su Yaqin felt Song Shishi's emotions and didn't know what to say for a moment.
After hesitating for a long time, she spoke again: "It's just a superficial wound. It will heal in two days."
There was a knock on the door outside the ward, and then Li Chengde walked in with a worried look on his face.
As soon as he saw Su Yaqin, he strode to Su Yaqin and hugged her in his arms.
"How did she get hurt like this? I'm going to make that bitch pay for it."
As soon as Li Chengde came, Su Yaqin became a little woman, snuggling in Li Chengde's arms and acting coquettishly.
Sometimes he said it hurts here, sometimes he said it hurts there, it was completely different from what he said in front of Song Shishi just now? It looked like it was just a superficial injury.
The couple was being affectionate, so it was not appropriate for Song Shishi to just stand there.
So he made an excuse to go find Li Haoyang and left the ward.
When she walked out of the hospital, she saw Xu Li holding Li Haoyang on the side of the road, and Li Haoyang was holding a candied haws in his hand.
Those smiling eyes were enough to show how happy Li Haoyang was at the moment.
"Pretty auntie!"
When he saw Song Shishi, Li Haoyang immediately reached out to her and asked her to hug him.
"Pretty auntie, here are some candied haws for you to eat."
As he spoke, Li Haoyang handed the candied haws to her mouth.
After comforting Li Haoyang with a few words, the little guy stayed in her arms and started to eat candied haws.
She turned to meet Xu Li's worried gaze and smiled, "It's nothing serious. I'm just acting coquettishly with my brother-in-law."
Xu Li breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at the same time, "Sister Qin and her brother-in-law have such a good relationship, it's really enviable."
"Don't envy others. You will meet the person who loves you in the future."
She found that since Xu Li was forced to marry by Xu Guiying, she always mentioned things related to her "partner" intentionally or unintentionally.
Last time she envied Meng Xunzhou for being nice to her, and this time she envied the relationship between Su Yaqin and Li Chengde.
Perhaps in her subconscious, only if she finds someone she likes will her aunt truly let her go.
Xu Li looked into the distance longingly, "Who could it be?"
"Who knows?" Song Shishi shrugged.
She couldn't even predict her own future, let alone someone else's.
"Shishi."
Li Chengde walked out of the hospital holding Su Yaqin in his arms. If it weren't for the wound on her face, just looking at Su Yaqin's expression, how could one tell that she had just been beaten?
"It's already noon. Your brother-in-law wants to invite you to a state-owned restaurant for dinner. Let's go."
After saying that, Su Yaqin took Song Shishi's hand and walked towards the car.
Song Shishi turned around and motioned Xu Li to follow, then said: "Xu Li and I can just deal with a few bites. You were frightened and injured today, so you should go back with your brother-in-law and rest early."
"It's okay, you can continue shopping after dinner. I have to go to the Public Security Bureau to deal with some follow-up matters. I will pick you up after I'm done." Li Chengde let go of Su Yaqin, walked to the front to open the car door for them, and said.
Seeing him say this, Song Shishi had no choice but to nod in agreement.
Li Chengde drove here by himself, so Song Shishi and Xu Li sat in the car driven by Uncle Fugui, while Su Yaqin and Li Haoyang sat in Li Chengde's car.
Xu Li leaned over the window and looked out, muttering, "I really envy Sister Qin. It must be satisfying for a woman to live like this."
Song Shishi raised her hand and tapped Xu Li on the head, saying seriously: "Don't envy this and that. Self-love and self-improvement are the most important."
Xu Li looked at her blankly without saying anything.
She pretended to hit Xu Li's head again, and Xu Li finally reacted and dodged backwards, "I know, sister, please don't hit me on the head, it will make me stupid."
“Puff~”
Song Shishi was amused, but still tried her best to persuade: "Lili, your life now is in your own hands. Don't try to rely on others for your life."
Afraid that Xu Li didn't understand, she continued, "Just like before, you relied on Xu Qiang for your life, and then when you went to your aunt's house, you relied on Xu Guiying for your life.
Such reliance will make you lose yourself and will not last long.
Your brother can't take care of you for a long time, he has to make achievements in the army.
Your aunt couldn't take care of you for a long time because she had her own family and children, which led to her later thinking about marrying you off.
But what if one day you become strong and don’t need to rely on anyone to live?
By then, you don’t have to envy anyone, because you are already a role model for others.”
No one has ever told Xu Li this.
Ever since she met Song Shishi, she has clearly felt that her life has changed.
But with these changes, something in her heart seemed to begin to become unbalanced.
She began to want more, but she couldn't tell what it was.
But what Song Shishi said to her today made her think differently.
Although this idea is still just a seedling, she believes that one day, she will be as powerful as Song Shishi and Su Yaqin.
…
When we arrived at the state-owned restaurant, it was Uncle Fugui and Li Chengde who were taking care of everything.
Song Shishi, Su Yaqin and the others just had to sit in their seats and wait for their food.
As soon as Li Haoyang got out of the car, he kept pestering her and wouldn't leave her side.
With Su Yaqin's family around, Song Shishi and Xu Li had this meal as if it were Chinese New Year.
Braised pork, sweet and sour pork tenderloin, steamed fish, and rice.
Xu Li's eyes widened. If Song Shishi hadn't picked up some food for her, she would not have dared to eat.
After dinner, Su Yaqin said she would take them to the tailor shop to have jackets made, but just as they reached the door, several people dressed as beggars rushed over.
"Give me something to eat, give me something to eat."
Song Shishi and others were so frightened that they retreated back into the state-owned hotel.
These beggars stood at the door of the restaurant and did not go in, but their eyes were staring at them.
