When Song Zhi walked into the house, she saw that it was deserted. Only Song Anshan was sitting in the living room, watching over the little Qingbai who was sleeping soundly in the cradle.
She glanced around before asking, "Lin Wanru hasn't come back yet?"
"Uh-huh."
Song Anshan nodded.
Hearing this, Song Zhi frowned.
After they had dinner, Lin Wanru went to Lin Ping's place. It was already this late, and he hadn't come back yet. Seeing these two siblings together, there must be something bad going on.
But Song Zhi said nothing. He just walked over and pushed Xiao Qingbai's cradle back to his room.
"Dad, go and have some rest."
"I'm not tired."
Song Anshan shook his head.
Little Qingbai is very well behaved. He hardly cries as long as he is full. Although he has been watching the children for several hours, he does not feel tired at all. Instead, he enjoys it.
At his age, he can enjoy family happiness with his grandchildren, which is something other families can only envy.
"I haven't been back for so long. I went shopping today. How did you feel?" Song Anshan suddenly asked.
Hearing this, Song Zhi looked helpless.
How could she not know what Song Anshan was thinking?
Just as he was about to speak, there was a rapid knock on the door.
Lin Wanru stood at the door, knocking on it impatiently.
She was now full of anger and scolded Song Zhi in her heart.
If it weren't for her, Xiaoping wouldn't have always given me the cold shoulder.
But when Song Zhi opened the door, Lin Wanru immediately put on a friendly smile, without any clues at all.
"Zhizhi, is the baby asleep?"
She walked into the house quietly and asked about Xiao Qingbai's situation.
Song Zhi nodded lightly, looking at Lin Wanru's perfect expression, she said nothing and went back to the room.
She didn't want to watch Lin Wanru's performance.
Lin Wanru said hello to Song Anshan and went back to her room.
After closing the door, the smile on her face disappeared instantly, and her whole face collapsed in an instant.
She pinched her palms and gritted her teeth to comfort herself.
"It will be fine once Song Zhi leaves."
When Song Zhi goes to the countryside, her life can return to its former leisurely and comfortable state.
With this thought in mind, Lin Wanru's mood improved a lot.
Unexpectedly, three days later, Song Zhi was still at home, showing no sign of leaving.
Lin Wanru looked at Song Zhi who was brushing her teeth leisurely in the bathroom. She looked like she wanted to stay at home for a long time. In the end, she couldn't help but ask what was in her heart.
"Zhizhi, when are you planning to leave?"
Song Zhi, who was brushing her teeth, heard this and gave her a cold look.
Lin Wanru was stunned for a moment before she realized that she had accidentally spoken out her true feelings.
She pulled the corners of her mouth awkwardly, forcing a kind smile, and explained stiffly, "I mean, when you plan to go to the countryside, I can prepare some of your favorite foods for you to take back."
Song Zhi sneered.
She would never believe that Lin Wanru would be so kind.
Most likely, he was anxious because he saw that I had no intention of leaving.
Song Zhi spat out the foam in his mouth, took some water from the cup, rinsed his mouth, then washed his toothbrush, put it back in his cup, and placed it steadily on the shelf next to the sink. Then he turned around and looked at Lin Wanru.
She shook the water off her hands and said unhappily.
"This is my home, and I can live here as long as I want."
After saying this, Song Zhi walked around Lin Wanru and went straight back to the room.
The door closed with a muffled bang, blocking Lin Wanru's view.
She stood there in a daze, her face falling because of Song Zhi's words.
"What does she mean? Is she really not going to leave?"
When she thought of this possibility, Lin Wanru's face suddenly changed.
Song Zhi has been at home recently and has always been against her, forcing Lin Wanru to keep a low profile at home.
Lin Wanru has had enough of this kind of frustration.
The most important thing is that Song Zhi refused to leave, and she felt it difficult to explain to her brother.
Song Zhi refused to leave and occupied the house, making it impossible for her younger brother Lin Ping to move in.
These days, every time she went to deliver food to Lin Ping, he would ask about it and ask to come back to live with him.
This gave Lin Wanru a headache.
She stood at the door, looked at Song Zhi's closed door, left angrily, and turned back to her room.
Song Anshan had just returned from morning exercise and as soon as he entered the house, he was pulled into the room by Lin Wanru.
Seeing her ugly face, Song Anshan asked curiously.
"What's wrong?"
After he left, she and Song Zhi were the only ones left at home.
Could it be that during the time I was away, they had some unpleasantness again?
As soon as Lin Wanru saw him, she pursed her lips in grievance, but did not talk about what happened between her and Song Zhi. Instead, she mentioned Lin Ping's work.
"Old Song, didn't you promise to find a job for Xiaoping? It's been so long, is there any news?"
Lin Wanru complained dissatisfiedly.
"When will Xiaoping be able to enter the factory?"
Song Anshan was also having a headache about this matter. Now when he heard her mention it, his face looked a little unhappy.
"This matter is not that easy. It will probably take a few days before we get any news."
There are two old employees in the factory who are about to retire, but they also want their children to take over their positions.
Song Anshan has been discussing with them these days.
But they haven't relented yet.
Song Anshan had no choice.
When Lin Wanru heard this, she instantly became unhappy.
"It'll take a few more days! When exactly is that? The Chinese New Year is almost here, you should at least let Xiaoping get a few months' salary before the New Year so he can celebrate the New Year."
Lin Wanru waved her hands. When she said this, she looked at Song Anshan suspiciously and pouted.
"You haven't taken this matter to heart, have you? You promised it yourself, Old Song, why are you like this?"
Lin Wanru became angrier and angrier as she spoke. She sat down on the bed and looked at Song Anshan with red eyes.
After a while, two big tears rolled down from her eyes.
Seeing her crying, Song Anshan's expression suddenly changed, and he quickly comforted her: "It will be soon, I will think of a way, don't worry."
After all, there was affection between them. Although his daughter told him those things, Song Anshan couldn't be completely cruel to Lin Wanru.
Hearing this, Lin Wanru wiped away her tears.
After getting Song Anshan's promise, she breathed a sigh of relief.
In recent days, she has been taking care of Lin Ping and accompanying him to look for a job, but Lin Ping is not in a hurry at all. Every time he either complains that this one is not good enough, that one is too tiring, or that the salary is low.
Instead of looking for a job, he just thinks about eating, drinking and having fun every day.
The little private money that Lin Wanru had saved with great difficulty was now gone.
