Chapter 31031 Chu Song sharpens his sword
Lu Minglin didn't expect to see Chu Song in such a place. He was extremely disgusted with these street thugs who did nothing but smoke and play cards every day.
But like many parents who dote on their children, he did not think it was his child's fault. Instead, he believed that the other three people had led Chu Song astray.
He had only been in the city for less than three days and had already picked up this bad habit, which was enough to prove that bad company can corrupt people.
Chu Song also didn't expect to run into Lu Minglin. With so many people around, the probability of this happening was extremely small.
She had a headache. The timing was not right yet, and she couldn't let Lu Minglin blow up her fish pond.
Then both sides fell into a strange silence.
Liang Jiayao sensed something was wrong. He first looked at the person's face and felt a little jealous. She was not any less pretty than him. He took care of his beautiful face every day.
She must have aged before him, tsk tsk.
"Hello, who are you?"
Liang Jiayao felt a sense of crisis in his heart, and he turned his head to question Chu Song with his eyes.
Of course Chu Song couldn't tell the truth, so he said vaguely, "What are you thinking? He is my biological brother after all!"
If you think about it carefully, you can find many loopholes in it, such as "sort of", for example, the two people don't get along like brother and sister, and for example, the two people don't look alike at all.
But Liang Jiayao didn't think much about it. He was just a simple-minded single-celled organism. His expression changed immediately and he greeted people with a flattering smile.
"Brother, please don't be angry. I saw my sister was bored in the hospital, so I brought her out to relieve her boredom. Don't worry, we didn't do anything out of the ordinary."
Want to do something out of the ordinary? Lu Minglin's face turned even worse after hearing this. It seemed that not only did he have ulterior motives, but he was also slick and smooth-talking, which fitted his stereotype of this kind of street thug.
"Wait!" Chu Song seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and said with an expression that looked like he was catching someone by the hair. "I haven't asked you yet, why are you here? Are you here to play too?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the boss came out from the back room with a stack of newspapers. He looked very familiar with the man and it was not his first time doing business. "Here, these are the newspapers from the last month. I saved them for you."
Lu Minglin took it: "Thank you."
Chu Song: “…”Okay.
This is a truly elegant and handsome boy.
Seeing this, Liang Jiayao followed suit and called him brother, flattering him, "Brother, you like reading too? You look like a cultured person. Haha, do you want to play a few games with us? Don't worry, these are all legitimate games, not gambling."
Lu Minglin looked at him and saw that his nose was not a nose and his eyes were not eyes: "Okay."
Chu Song looked at him in surprise for several times, feeling that his character had collapsed. Shouldn't he take the newspaper and politely say goodbye?
Why are you still playing it?
Lu Minglin didn't understand why he agreed. Now that he was sitting at the table, he felt embarrassed to regret it, so he could only listen to Liang Jiayao explaining the rules to him. It was his first time to encounter these, but fortunately he had a quick mind and figured out the routine in no time.
Chu Song smelled a strange atmosphere in the Shura Field. After realizing that something was wrong, he voluntarily withdrew and watched the battle from the sidelines.
When the fight started, she ran away first.
Lu Minglin fumbled with the cards in his hand and asked, "What's your name?"
"Oh yeah, I haven't introduced myself to you yet." Liang Jiayao smiled foolishly, "My name is Liang Jiayao, Jia means family business, Yao means glory."
"What kind of job do you do? Unemployed?"
"No, I'm not unemployed. I have a legitimate job. I'm a police officer."
Lu Minglin took a closer look. Judging from his appearance, he really didn't look like a serious police officer. He asked again, "Police? Then why are you playing cards here during working hours?"
"Haha, my arm is slightly injured, so I'm recuperating at home."
"How did you get hurt? Did you fight with someone?"
"No, I just accidentally fell while riding a motorcycle." Liang Jiayao thought to himself why Chu Song, his brother, was like checking his household registration and always making malicious speculations about him. Does he look like a bad guy?
Is there a bad guy as handsome as him?
He then thought that maybe he was not satisfied with himself and was finding fault with everything, so his attitude became even more respectful and enthusiastic.
Seeing that Lu Minglin was about to ask about the other person's family background, Chu Song finally couldn't bear it anymore. She covered her mouth and coughed twice, then changed the subject and said, "Old ghost, why are you losing again?"
Her words brought everyone's attention back to the game. The old ghost was in tears. How could one or two of them be so good at playing cards? Do they want to live?
Liang Jiayao: "Brother, you play really well. You two are worthy of being siblings. Each one is better than the other."
Lu Minglin: “…”
He glanced at Chu Song silently, and Chu Song looked away innocently.
In his heart, he labeled Liang Jiayao as "suspected of having congenital low IQ" and did not expose the lie.
Four men put on a show. Chu Song watched the show for half the afternoon. It was much more interesting than playing cards, she thought wickedly.
Then she stuck her head out to look at the watch on Lu Minglin's wrist. It was already five o'clock in the afternoon. She suggested leaving. If she didn't go back, Ye Xiuzhi would nag her again.
Once she left, there was naturally no need to continue the game.
In front of the other person's brother, Liang Jiayao was embarrassed to send them back, so he watched them leave with dignity.
Chu Song and Lu Minglin walked out of the teahouse. Chu Song asked curiously, "Brother Lu, are you here to pick up a package in the city? Where's the package? Haven't you picked it up yet? You better hurry, or the post office will be closed any later."
She actually cared more about his package than he did. Lu Minglin guessed her thoughts immediately and shook his head and said, "No, there is no package. I will go back to the city to visit my relatives in a few days. This time I just came to pick up newspapers and magazines."
"What, go back to the city? I really don't want to leave Brother Lu." Chu Song was very disappointed. She forgot that the educated youth had annual leave to visit their families at the end of the year.
Lu Minglin was self-aware and thought that she might have omitted the word "package", so he gave her half of the newspaper in his hand.
"For me?"
"Well, if you're bored in the hospital, you can use it to entertain yourself."
"Okay." From now on, it will be her toilet reading material.
Lu Minglin said, "If you've finished reading these, I have a lot of new ones. You can always come and borrow them from me."
"Okay." Chu Song nodded. Without a cell phone, she was indeed very bored every day. She had wanted to find some novels to read before, but found that firstly, she had no money, and secondly, the books that were slightly interesting were all "banned books". As for the rest, well, she might as well go back to reading her primary school Chinese textbooks.
Chu Song was holding a memorial service for his phone in his heart. Thinking about how he suddenly traveled through a book and didn't have time to delete all the records in his phone, he felt even more heartbroken.
I'm not afraid of being torn to pieces, I just want to leave my innocence in this world...
Lu Minglin looked at her with her head down, not knowing what she was thinking. He felt inexplicably guilty. She said that she could come to him to borrow money anytime. Wasn't she deliberately creating opportunities for Chu Song to contact her?
He had clearly agreed to stay away, and he despised himself in his heart for a moment.
"Well, I'm going back to the village first. Please be careful and don't get involved with those questionable people."
After saying that, he didn't dare to look at Chu Song's reaction. He nodded, turned around and left in a hurry.
Chu Song: "Wait a minute, you seem to be going the wrong way. That's not the direction back to the village!"
Lu Minglin paused, then changed direction, and walked hurriedly as if there was a flood or a beast chasing him.
It was strange. Chu Song was sure that the "questionable person" Lu Minglin was referring to was Liang Jiayao. As for why he was so malicious towards him... she was too lazy to guess. Anyway, it wouldn't affect her.
Chu Song returned to the hospital.
Seeing that she came back so late, Ye Xiuzhi asked a few questions and then went to take care of Chai Xueqi. Seeing that she was not missing any limbs, she did not bother to ask more questions.
Chai Xueqi's stomach is now very swollen and she is also seeing some spotting. She estimates that she is about to give birth.
Sure enough, at around ten o'clock in the evening, she was pushed into the operating room.
Chu Song and Ye Xiuzhi were waiting outside the operating room. She was bored waiting, so she poked someone's arm and said, "Mom, do you want a granddaughter or a grandson?"
Ye Xiuzhi rolled her eyes at her: "Shao Pin, I'm very nervous now. When I gave birth to you, I was almost at death's door. Do you think being a mother is so easy?"
Chu Song comforted her, "Don't worry, mother, my sister-in-law will keep both mother and daughter safe."
"How do you know it's a girl?"
Chu Song said seriously, "Look at me, I'm so smart and cute, so my sister-in-law must give birth to a girl to pass on our excellent genes."
Ye Xiuzhi: “…”
However, with her jokes, Ye Xiuzhi's nervousness did dissipate a lot.
The two waited for almost an hour before the door of the operating room finally opened.
Ye Xiuzhi pushed Chu Song. They had agreed before that she would go to take care of Chai Xueqi, and Chu Song would go to see the child first. He must be the first person the child sees after opening his eyes.
Although Chu Song did not understand this feudal superstition, he chose to respect it. Okay, okay, it's just a visit, it won't cost him any money.
In the operating room, Chai Xueqi was lying on the bed, looking a little weak from exhaustion, her face covered in sweat. She had successfully given birth to a child, but she didn't feel much joy. Instead, when she saw them come in, she cried in a trembling voice, "Mom, the child doesn't seem to cry. Could it be..."
At the end of the sentence, he choked up and couldn't continue.
Ye Xiuzhi's heart sank. He didn't cry. Could he be mute?
Chu Song was puzzled. Why wouldn't he cry? Clearly, in the original book, this child was normal. She went to the bedside and saw the newborn baby, purple and wrinkled, looking like a completely mutated little old man.
She uttered an "eh" in disgust and blurted out, "What an ugly purple potato spirit."
As soon as the words fell, the baby seemed to understand and started crying loudly.
Chu Song: "..." She almost suspected that the child was ruptured in the womb!
Chai Xueqi burst into tears of joy: "I'm crying, I'm crying!"
It’s okay to cry, it’s okay to cry, it’s good to be healthy.
Just now, she didn't say a word when the doctor patted her buttocks, and she didn't cry or make a fuss. Her heart was already cold. Now, she was crying because of her sister-in-law's words "ugly". She didn't have time to thank her, so she didn't have time to care about so many things.
Not to mention scolding the child, even her sister-in-law can scold her!
Ye Xiuzhi also breathed a sigh of relief. It was okay to cry. She looked at the scene with a mixture of laughter and tears, and patted Chu Song's back hard: "All babies are like this when they are born. You were even uglier than this when you were a child!"
Chu Song refused to believe it.
All in all, this incident turned out to be a complete farce, which ended in a narrow escape and later became a topic of conversation for the whole family after dinner.
Chai Xueqi was pushed back to the previous ward, half leaning to feed her child. She was overflowing with maternal love, and even looked at Chu Song with a loving look.
Chu Song felt a chill run down his spine from her stare, so he asked, "Sister-in-law, have you named the child yet?"
"Yes, I've discussed it with the child's father before. If it's a boy, we'll name him Chu Jinlong, and if it's a girl, we'll name her Chu Jinfeng. Does that sound good?"
Chu Song: “…” Help.
It's so rustic that my ears are about to go deaf.
As her aunt, Chu Song felt she needed to save her niece's name, so she replied sincerely, "Sister-in-law, are you really not going to consider changing it? This is too tacky."
Chai Xueqi wasn't angry. As the most educated person in the Chu family, Chu Song was quite authoritative in this regard. She humbly asked, "Do you have any good names?"
Chu Song was silent. She really couldn't think of anything for a while, so she took out the newspaper Lu Minglin gave her. Since she didn't have a dictionary, she had to use the newspaper instead.
She sat by the window and flipped through the pages for a while before finally seeing a name that looked pretty good. "Sister-in-law, holding embroidery and jade in one's arms, good words and virtuous deeds, how about Jinyu? The meaning is also good, and Jinfeng can be a nickname."
Chai Xueqi nodded. She didn't understand these flowery idioms. "Then I'll go home and discuss it with your brother."
Chu Song had no objection, as long as it wasn’t a golden dragon or golden phoenix.
Since she successfully "scolded" the little purple potato spirit into tears, Ye Xiuzhi and Chai Xueqi agreed that she was a lucky star and a prosperous niece.
The newborn baby was still very fragile. Ye Xiuzhi had warned her before that she would not hold back when she was being treated harshly. She was not allowed to hold her little niece casually, let alone treat her as a toy.
Chu Song was happy to have some free time, and it just so happened that she didn't want to take care of the baby.
But that was before. Ever since Ye Xiuzhi labeled her a "lucky star", Chai Xueqi would give the child to Chu Song from time to time. Strangely enough, the little purple potato spirit was full of energy and made a lot of noise, but every time it was held by Chu Song, it became well-behaved and didn't cry or make a fuss.
"Jinfeng really likes you as her aunt." Chai Xueqi was a little jealous.
Chu Song was moved ten times but still refused.
First, she was not naturally fond of children. Second, the little purple potato spirit was ugly, or in Ye Xiuzhi's words, she had not yet grown up. Third, the little purple potato spirit would be the number one fangirl of her mortal enemy, Xiang Baoshu, in the future, and she was afraid of raising an ungrateful little boy.
Xiang Baoshu! Chu Song's teeth itched with hatred at the mere mention of her name. Her number one enemy! Her future sister-in-law! Her control group!
Calculating the time, after the New Year, Xiang Baoshu will go to the countryside and be assigned to the Luhua Brigade.
Chu Song sharpened his knife and revealed an extremely evil smile.
