Lin Lu slept until almost half past ten before waking up. At first, there was no one at home. After eating the breakfast left for her, she saw Li Xianglian coming back with a pig's trotter.
Curious: "What are you doing? Where did you go to receive the gift?"
Li Xianglian: "What nonsense are you talking about? I heard from your second sister-in-law that Zhaodi took Qinqin to the hospital for an abortion. Buy some things and go take a look."
People here tend to be simple when giving gifts.
Lin Lu: It’s quite fast.
"How did she figure it out? By the way, did Song Chen tell you this morning about what happened last night?"
He didn't say it last night, and Lin Lu was quite curious about how the girl changed her mind. Wasn't she determined to elope with that gangster?
Song Chen mentioned this to Li Xianglian and the others last night, and Li Xianglian briefly explained the key points to Lin Lu.
"Sell her to his idiot cousin as a wife?" Lin Lu was truly shocked. "It's a good thing she heard it. If she hadn't, her life would have been ruined."
Li Xianglian: "Some people won't turn back until they hit a wall. They only repent when they hit a wall themselves."
In fact, Li Xianglian secretly disliked Song Qinqin. She always felt that she was a little stupid and had inherited some of her biological parents' indifference and stupidity.
But the relationship is like this, so she can't say anything.
Lin Lu asked: "Will she have to stay in the hospital after the operation?"
The last time I went to their house for dinner, I vaguely heard her say that she should abort the child and then come here to stay for a few days.
Lin Lu didn't say anything at that time.
But the reality was that there was no extra bed for her to sleep in their house.
Besides, it’s not appropriate for Lin Jingbei to sleep in a boy’s bed.
Li Xianglian: "Where else can I go if I don't stay in the hospital? I'm afraid of being embarrassed if I go back to the village."
Anyway, Li Xianglian firmly disagreed to let her come here, saying that she was feudal or heartless, but there has never been such a reason since ancient times.
Lin Lu: "Well, I'll go with you to take a look."
The mother and son talked for a while, and Lin Lu tidied herself up before going out.
When I arrived at the hospital, I asked around before I found out her ward number.
"Aunt Si, Grandma Li, you're here."
Song Qinqin's face was pale, her lips were dry, and she smiled bitterly at Lin Lu.
Lin Lu had no experience in comforting people.
The person who gave me the most comfort in my life was the big man Song Chen.
He said dryly, "You are still young. You will meet good people in the future. Now take good care of your health."
"I know, thank you, Fourth Aunt."
However, this society does not tolerate people making mistakes. Once you make a mistake when you are young, you will be criticized for the rest of your life.
Li Xianglian put the things on the white cabinet next to Song Qinqin.
Xu Zhaodi came back from fetching water and saw Lin Lu and her son. "Auntie, sister-in-law, why are you here? It's really troublesome for you to come here."
This kind of thing was not glorious in the first place. Li Xianglian not only came, but also bought a pork leg. Xu Zhaodi felt a little embarrassed for a moment.
So embarrassed.
Li Xianglian did a very good job of speaking on the surface: "What are you talking about? We are all family."
In terms of material things, Li Xianglian is not a stingy person.
She also said, "Zhao Di, go to the orchard and catch a fat old hen to make soup for Qinqin. You have to take good care of her during the postpartum period."
The chickens raised in the garden are fat and lay a lot of eggs every day, which has expanded the industrial chain.
Xu Zhaodi agreed: "Okay, I won't be polite, aunt."
That being said, the money has to be paid.
Lin Lu suddenly felt greedy: "I can make cold shredded chicken. It's hot now, so it's a good time to eat it. Mom, let's go catch some this afternoon and I'll make it for you."
Li Xianglian had never heard of this: "Cold-mixed shredded chicken? Chicken can be made into a cold salad. Where did you learn that?"
Lin Lu said frankly, "When I was in college, I worked more part-time, so I naturally learned more."
Song Qinqin was curious, "Aunt, did you work part-time every day when you were in college?"
Lin Lu had nothing to say. "Yeah, I go whenever I don't have classes. I've worked in dessert shops, restaurants, tutoring... I've done a lot of things."
The prices in Kyoto are so high, and I have to send money home frequently to support my parents and children.
Song Qinqin felt inferior and lowered her head quietly.
Li Xianglian didn't know that her daughter had done so many jobs. The letters she sent over the years said that the money was given by the school. If she hadn't let it slip today, she would have thought it was a subsidy.
"You girl, do you think lying is fun, ah."
Li Xianglian felt bad when she thought that she might not have money to eat at school and would have to work and attend classes every day.
"You damn girl, you're really going to make me angry to death."
Lin Lu knew he had let something slip, so he spread his hands and said, "I'm not the only one working part-time. Everyone works part-time in college. We're not from rich families."
Xu Zhaodi glared at her daughter and said, "Listen, I sent you to school, and you're not happy about it."
Song Qinqin, "I'm not cut out for that kind of study, and I'm just being self-aware. Isn't it good to save you some money?"
Lin Lu tried to smooth things over, "Okay, okay, it's getting late. Mom, let's go home first. Lin Jingbei is about to finish school."
"Then Zhaodi, please take good care of Qinqin. We'll go back and cook first. Come to our house for dinner when you have time."
"Okay, I won't see you off."
——
After leaving the hospital, Li Xianglian was worried that she would not have enough time to cook, so she ran straight home.
Lin Lu couldn't catch up with her even with his walker.
"Mom, you go back first. I'll walk slowly and see if I can buy something delicious."
"Okay, pay attention. I'll go back and cook."
Lin Lu wandered around a roadside shop but didn't buy anything. However, he saw Sister Qiao'er at the corner.
The same flower on the hair.
Selling rice cakes in the same way.
There was still a gentle smile on his face.
Lin Lu actually admired her quite a bit.
"Sister Qiaoer, aren't you off work yet?"
Sister Qiao'er weighed the rice cakes for the customers, and then she looked in the direction of the voice and saw Lin Lu standing up, not in a wheelchair, and still looking pretty.
"Lulu, can you stand up now? Is your leg okay?"
"Yes, I went to Shanghai and got injections for two months. I feel much better now. I can even walk with this."
She walked such a long way today. If Song Chen knew about it, he would definitely nag her again.
"Congratulations, your bad luck is over, and you will have good luck from now on."
Lin Lu: "Thank you for your good wishes."
Sister Qiaoer: "Can you eat rice cakes now? Do you want to pick a few? I made them all by hand, there's nothing messy about them."
"Okay." Lin Lu selected a few pieces and said, "Please weigh them for me."
Sister Qiaoer still didn't want to take the money.
But last time she confiscated it, Song Chen added the money to his salary and gave it to his child, so her son told her.
Then collect it.
"Okay, if it tastes good, I'll deliver it directly to your house in the future."
Lin Lu waved his hand, "No need, I'll come and buy it if I want to eat it, don't delay your business."
Sister Qiaoer looked at her and laughed: "Lulu has changed a lot now."
