Chapter 17 You can even worship her!
As night fell, a few lights in the Huo family's courtyard were lit and cicadas chirped.
The ceiling fan in the living room was turned to medium. On the coffee table was a child's favorite candy plate and a fruit plate.
The fruit plate was filled with cantaloupes grown by farmers, cut into small pieces that looked like white jade and were full of fragrance.
Su Lingyu picked up a piece of melon with a silver skewer, and it was hard to tell whether it was the delicate white melon or her flawless white jade hand.
After eating the cantaloupe, she pursed her lips with a handkerchief and looked at Xie Rongjun, who had been silent for a long time, leisurely: "What do you want to talk to me about? If you don't tell me, I'll go upstairs."
"Something's going on, something's going on." Xie Rongjun pushed Zhao Mei, motioning her to speak.
Zhao Mei's face turned red, and she stammered for a long time, unable to utter a word. She was sweating profusely, and she tried hard to signal Xie Rongjun with her eyes to speak.
This couple...
"It's not that I don't want to entertain you, it's that they don't cherish the opportunity to be with me. You can't go back on the conditions you promised before." Su Lingyu said something to Huo Yan, stood up and prepared to go upstairs.
"Wait!" Xie Rongjun jumped up anxiously.
In order to buy time for Su Lingyu to notice Xie Wu, he had no choice but to bring up a random topic.
"Actually, it's your sister-in-law! She also wants to dress herself up, but she doesn't know how. So... she saw that you have a lot of experience in dressing up, so she wanted to come and learn from you."
"Dress up?" Su Lingyu turned around and looked at Zhao Mei in confusion.
After being looked at like this, Zhao Mei's expression became even more embarrassed, and her slightly dark face turned red. She was obviously a little surprised, but she still nodded.
This reaction is obviously not about dressing.
Su Lingyu was curious and wanted to see what kind of medicine the couple had hidden in their gourd.
"There's no rush to get dressed. For you, the most important thing is to get yourself in good shape." She sat down on the sofa again and looked at Zhao Mei with her beautiful almond eyes.
"Status?" Zhao Mei was confused.
"Yes." Su Lingyu nodded. "I see your hands are very rough. Do you do a lot of housework? You also have dark circles under your eyes. You must not get enough rest, right?"
"That's right." Zhao Meihan smiled and nodded. "There are three children at home and endless housework to do. I go to bed at dawn every day and have to prepare breakfast for the whole family early in the morning. I don't get enough sleep. Especially our Xiaowu, he can't be left alone. I have to watch him all the time during the day."
Zhao Mei loved her son so much that as soon as she found an opportunity, she pushed Xie Wu in front of Su Lingyu.
"Xiao Wu, call someone, call Aunt Su."
Xie Wu, who was about five or six years old, was wearing a set of clean old clothes. He looked to be only about four years old, fair and clean, but short and thin, and seemed to be a little malnourished.
Zhao Mei asked him to say hello, but he seemed not to hear her.
Facing Su Lingyu's gaze, he seemed not to feel it. He just stared at his fingers with empty eyes, immersed in his own world.
Su Lingyu immediately noticed that the child was different.
[Xiao Tongzi, is this the eldest son of the Xie family, the one who was diagnosed with autism? ]
[Yes, host! ]
What will he be like when he grows up?
[He had a miserable life. Before Xie Rongjun and his wife passed away, they could still take care of him, and he had enough food and warm clothes. But after they passed away one after another, he lived alone. All the valuables in his home were cheated and robbed, and his house was occupied by others. He became a homeless man. In the end, he fell headfirst into a stinking ditch and froze to death in the freezing winter.]
Su Lingyu sighed: […It’s really too tragic.]
She was still sighing to herself, not noticing that Xie Rongjun's eyes were red, and he turned away uncontrollably, clenching his fists tightly to suppress the huge sadness in his heart.
Zhao Mei, who heard the inner voice for the first time, was also in disbelief and tears welled up in her eyes.
When Su Lingyu came to her senses, she saw Zhao Mei wiping away her tears.
"You...what's wrong? Why are you crying all of a sudden?"
She didn't say anything just now, did she?
Did her rough hands and dark circles under her eyes hurt her self-esteem?
Zhao Mei sobbed and said, "I just feel sad when I think about the future of this child."
"Whenever I think about the fact that if Mr. Xie and I were gone, and this child was left alone to suffer, I couldn't help but feel sad... It doesn't matter if I'm a little tired, or have rough hands or dark circles under my eyes, as long as my child is fine. But, but when I took him to the hospital, the doctor said he was autistic and mentally retarded..."
As Zhao Mei cried, Xie Rongjun's emotions became increasingly difficult to control, and he began to choke up in his throat.
As a mother of three children, Chen Yuxiang understood Zhao Mei's pain better and her eyes became red.
Huo Xiang couldn't help but wipe away his tears quietly.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the living room was heavy.
At this time, Su Lingyu said: "The doctor said he has autism, but you can't treat him as autistic. You still have to guide him as a normal child."
"What, what do you mean?" Zhao Mei wiped her tears and looked at Su Lingyu expectantly.
"First of all, autism is not necessarily mentally retarded. Some autistic patients are geniuses, and they are outstanding geniuses. It's just that they see the world differently from us, have stereotyped behaviors, and have difficulty in interpersonal communication."
"Furthermore, your child may not be autistic, it may be a misdiagnosis. Even if it is autism, timely intervention and scientific guidance can be provided to cultivate his ability to take care of himself."
"In the end, how you view your child will determine how your child will grow up. Whether he is autistic or not, if you believe he is a normal child, accompany him and guide him, he will gradually grow into what you want him to be."
Out of conditioned reflex, Su Lingyu said a lot in one breath. After she finished speaking, she felt the surprised gazes of the people on her, and then she realized belatedly that she was a little worried.
[I'm done. I've said so much. Am I overstating the matter?]
[The original owner didn't understand these at all, right? ]
[If they ask me where I know all this, how should I answer? Could it be that I had a strange encounter when I was a child and received guidance from a white-bearded old man?]
The system was also worried: [What a pity, although you love medicine, it is not suitable for you to display your strengths here.]
【Ah, yes.】
"Wow, sister-in-law, you really know a lot!" Huo Xiang's eyes suddenly lit up, "Are all good-looking people so powerful?"
Chen Yuxiang also said: "Usually your father likes to buy books on medicine and health. I thought you didn't read them. I didn't expect you to be such a studious child."
Huo Jianguo clenched his fist and coughed: "Don't make a mistake, the Su family's ancestors have been doctors for generations, but a few years ago, the family gave up medicine and joined the army, and there has never been a doctor in the family since then."
Su Lingyu: "..."
[Tongzi, the vicious female supporting role has such a family background? Is it because she is a tool and no relevant information appeared before, so I don’t know? ]
[Host, it seems to be true! ]
【An unexpected surprise. 】
Huo's family: "..." Just be happy.
Ever since they knew that Su Lingyu was an excellent doctor but had no excuse for practicing medicine, they tried every possible means, even going so far as to fabricate facts.
Unexpectedly, when I was looking into the Su family's background, I actually found such a plausible piece of history, and I took the opportunity to tell it out without delay.
Not only to help the Xie family, they also hoped that Su Lingyu could help Huo Yan heal his leg in the future.
As long as Su Lingyu can cure Huo Yan, their whole family will worship her!
"Sister, do you think my child can be saved? What should I do?" Zhao Mei asked eagerly.
"How should I know?" Su Lingyu frowned and asked in a sweet voice, "The fact that the Su family's ancestors were doctors has nothing to do with me. I am not interested in medicine, and I don't have time to bother with you guys."
[Although I like medicine very much, my mission is to be a vicious female supporting role and outshine everyone else. I can't suddenly shine in the medical position, right? ]
[However, if I have enough time to spend with this child, I can give him some training.]
Do training!
After hearing Su Lingyu's words, Xie Rongjun and his wife looked at each other, and were so excited that they were about to cry again. They felt that this was enough! It was better than being unable to do anything now!
As long as Su Lingyu has compassion, they will definitely create time to spend together and seize the opportunity!
They will be grateful to her for the rest of their lives!
No matter what evil mission Su Lingyu wants to do, they will cooperate!
Zhao Mei said with red eyes: "Big sister, let's visit each other more often. If you have any good ideas, please give some advice to our Xie Wu."
"I told you I don't have any good ideas."
"Then just visit the neighbors."
"...It's up to you." Su Lingyu snorted, "This is the Huo family, not my home. I can't stop you if you want to come."
“Yes, yes, yes!”
Xie Rongjun and his wife put their worries aside for a while, smiled more, and returned to the previous topic.
"Big sister, how do you think I should adjust my state?" Zhao Mei asked curiously.
She also wants to make herself better.
Su Lingyu said: "It's very simple, love yourself more and love men less."
Zhao Mei's eyes were confused.
Su Lingyu recalled the cold face Xie Rongjun had given her in the morning, and she smiled with curved lips, and said timidly: "Let your husband do more housework, and you will be less tired. Let him spend more time with the children, and you can go shopping. Let him quit smoking and drinking, and you can buy more beautiful clothes... When you feel relaxed, you will naturally be in a good state."
"This..." Zhao Mei slapped her thigh, with admiration in her eyes, "That's the truth!"
"There is a pillar in the family, and a man should be the one to take the responsibilities. When we get married, don't we also hope to be loved by someone?"
"Yes, yes." Zhao Mei nodded repeatedly.
Not only her, Chen Yuxiang and Huo Xiang also felt the same way.
Those who were married secretly pinched their husbands. Those who were still unmarried fantasized about finding a good man who would pamper and care for them in the future.
The men present suddenly felt the danger.
Especially Xie Rongjun.
Zhao Mei pinched him so hard and fast that he gasped in pain, unable to make a sound.
However, when Su Lingyu said, "Given Xie Wu's situation, he cannot do without his father's company," he straightened his chest again, looking full of energy.
Zhao Mei was still not finished: "Big sister, please say a few more words."
"There's nothing else to say." Su Lingyu said slowly, "In short, you must have a conscience to live a good life. Once you lose your conscience, life will be even worse."
Zhao Mei: “…”
Xie Rongjun: “…”
Huo family: "..."
These remarks are really fresh and unique, and have a kind of beauty that doesn't care about the life or death of men.
Suddenly, Huo Lang, who has a short memory, jumped out and asked fiercely, "Sister-in-law, aren't you encouraging Sister Zhao to rebel at home? Men are already very hard-working outside, and when they come home they have to do housework and take care of the children. Aren't they exhausted to death?"
"Stop, your opinion is not important." Su Lingyu raised Haobai's wrist and said contemptuously, "As if you can have a love relationship."
Huo Lang: “…”
It hurts so much, why does it feel like my knee was hit by an arrow!
Not only Su Lingyu, he suddenly realized that the women present all looked at him unkindly, especially his own mother, who seemed to be ready to pull out the feather duster at any time.
Shivering!
【Look at what kind of dog man this is. 】
[Life is so easy, isn't it? In our time, none of us could find a wife! ]
The system agrees: [Yes! ]
[If you really meet a bastard man who doesn't love his wife, just kick him out. Find a young and strong man with a handsome face, broad shoulders and narrow waist, and eight-pack abs. Isn't that better than an old cucumber? ]
The system asked curiously: [Host, is Huo Yan also an old cucumber? ]
Huo Yan: “…”
Su Lingyu's almond-shaped eyes curved slightly, she bit her red lips lightly, and laughed out loud in her heart:
[Hahaha! How can he be an old cucumber? Don’t look at his age, but he is a young cucumber who has kept his virginity for the heroine, pure and innocent, and has never used his hands. ]
Cucumber?
The word "small" made Huo Lang burst out laughing.
Meeting Su Lingyu's surprised gaze and being looked at coldly by Huo Yan with a murderous look, his face began to hurt again. He quickly pinched his thigh tightly and dared not laugh anymore.
Xie Rongjun glanced at Huo Yan's lower body teasingly and cleared his throat deliberately. He didn't even know that his good brother had never even used his hands. Was he so pure?
At this moment, the system's baby voice suddenly sounded:
[Host, host, I suddenly realized that Xie Rongjun is in trouble! If he doesn't handle it well, his wife and children might really leave him soon. Do you want to hear it? ]
Xie Rongjun's face changed drastically.
What's the trouble? How could this happen?
He had just secured a bright future for his children, so why was he causing his wife to leave him?
