"Let's come back when we have time. Then bring your camera." Qiao Xinyi touched the two children's heads to comfort them.
Perhaps because today’s happiness came gradually, the two children were not afraid of the sea or water when they went to the beach. This was an unexpected gain for Qiao Xinyi and Fu Qingxiao.
"I'll bring you here in early summer." Fu Qing said, "Probably around April or August. The weather will be good for playing in the sea then."
With this arrangement in mind, the two children seemed less resistant to going home.
It was already six o'clock when Qiao Xinyi returned to the textile factory's staff quarters. She was in no hurry to go back. After Chen Yubing and Fu Bailu finished cooking, she went to Aunt Zhang Hua's house and knocked on the door. Aunt Zhang Hua was not at home. She had gone to the hospital to deliver food to her relatives.
"Fu Qingxiao." Qiao Xinyi turned around and saw Fu Qingxiao standing in the corridor and called out.
Fu Qingxiao looked over at her and chuckled, "When can I ask you to remove a certain word?"
"Sure." Qiao Xinyi said with an expression that said I was easy to talk to, and quickly changed the subject, "Xiao Fu."
"..." Fu Qingxiao held his forehead, "Forget it, do as you please."
Qiao Xinyi laughed out loud, "When I first met you, I called you Fu Qingxiao. I got used to calling you by your full name, so I've been calling you that ever since."
"When you should be thin-skinned, you are as thick-skinned as the wall. When you should be thick-skinned, you are thin-skinned." Chen Yubing came over with the pot and laughed at Qiao Xinyi.
"I've been wanting to say this for a long time. You keep calling your son-in-law by his full name. People who don't know him would think you two are unfamiliar with each other. Who would know that you are still a young couple?"
"We look so good together, how can you not see that we are a young couple? A talented man and a beautiful woman, a match made in heaven." Qiao Xinyi winked at Fu Qingyi, "Captain Fu, don't you agree?"
"If Engineer Qiao says it is, then it must be so." Fu Qingxiao joked.
Qiao Xinyi stood there with her hands on her hips, staring at Fu Qingxiao for more than ten seconds, gave her a "good job", and then continued talking to Chen Yubing.
"I plan to go to the hospital after dinner to see Aunt Zhang Hua's relative's child." Qiao Xinyi said, "It just so happens that your son-in-law drove here today."
"I'll go with you." Chen Yubing said.
"Aunt~"
Fu Linzhou ran over from the living room and hugged Qiao Xinyi's thighs. "Can we stay in the small western-style building for two days?"
"With whom?" Qiao Xinyi asked.
"Me!" Qiao Yunbai raised his hand.
"Just the three of you?" Qiao Xinyi asked, "Where's Aunt Fu?"
"If I go too, then there will be no one to take care of you at home. That won't work. Your belly is so big, you can't be alone." Fu Bailu shook her head.
"Then Yunsong and I will go and stay there for two days." Chen Yubing said, "I go to clean up the house over there every week, and we can move in directly. The two children will be accompanied by Yunbai at home during the day."
"Okay, I'll pick you up tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." Qiao Xinyi said, "The temperature will drop in two days, so it'll be closer for Mom to go back home to work."
After getting permission, the two children happily ran around Qiao Xinyi and Chen Yubing in circles.
This is a really strange hobby for a kid this age.
Because they had to go back to the family compound in the evening, after dinner, they drove Chen Yubing and her group to the small western-style building first, and Fu Qingxiao took Qiao Xinyi and Fu Bailu to the hospital.
Coincidentally, the car was parked in an open space, and the three of them saw Aunt Zhang Hua outside the inpatient building.
Next to her was a woman who was wearing a patched cotton-padded jacket and had a slightly darker complexion and looked younger than Aunt Zhang Hua.
The woman was wiping her tears with her head down, while Aunt Zhang Hua was holding a food box in one hand and patting her shoulder with the other to comfort her.
"Aunt Zhang Hua." Qiao Xinyi walked over and called out.
Zhang Hua turned around and saw that it was Qiao Xinyi. She looked concerned and asked, "Why are you in the hospital? Are you feeling unwell?"
"No." Qiao Xinyi shook her head, "I came to see your relatives."
Aunt Zhang Hua smiled when she heard this. Her relative was in the hospital and Qiao Xinyi and his wife came to visit him specially, which really surprised and touched her.
"I said you are the kindest child I have ever seen." Aunt Zhang Hua introduced her to her relatives, "Cousin, this is my neighbor's daughter. I have a very good relationship with her."
"I know, it's the little Zhi you mentioned who loves to eat grapefruit and is very smart and capable, right?" Lin Sanmei quickly wiped her tears and thanked him, "Thank you for coming to see our child."
Qiao Xinyi didn't expect Aunt Zhang Hua and her relatives to praise her so much.
"The fruits in your house are really delicious." Qiao Xinyi praised first, and then explained the purpose of her visit.
"I heard Aunt Zhang Hua tell me about your family's situation, so I wanted to come and see you." Qiao Xinyi asked Aunt Zhang Hua, "My mom said that your family is planning to send a child over?"
"Yes." Lin Sanmei answered herself, "That family liked the second son. We went to find out. When her son was three years old, he broke his leg and became disabled. One of his legs was amputated below the knee."
I was told that if someone finds a child bride for their child at such a young age, the child must have obvious defects.
"You promised to take my second child away. If he gets good grades, we will support him to go to college."
Lin Sanmei choked up when she said this. "The third child at home needs medical treatment and is in debt. If he stays at home, it will be a problem to even have enough food, not to mention continuing his studies. If he follows us, he won't have to worry about food and clothing, and he can still go to school. It's better than staying at home, so my child's father and I want to persuade him again."
"The son of that family, my father and I know him. He is a good kid with a good temper."
Not only for the two hundred dollars, even for the child's future good future, Lin Sanmei as a mother can also find a way to persuade her second child.
"Are all the children in the family in the ward?" Qiao Xinyi asked.
"They are all here now." Lin Sanmei nodded.
"I brought some food for the children. Let's go up and see them together." Qiao Xinyi handed over the nutritional supplements that she and Fu Qingxiao had brought.
When Lin Sanmei saw that there were not only canned fruits but also milk powder, she refused to take any.
It was Aunt Zhang Hua who asked her to take it back and quickly lead everyone back to the child's ward. Only then did Lin Sanmei awkwardly accept the gift and thank her repeatedly.
The Lin family's child was staying in an ordinary ward. There were 10 patients in one ward. At this moment, the ward was noisy, with the sound of adults scolding children, children crying, and adults chatting and complaining, all mixed together.
"Mom, why is my cousin back again?" The eldest son of the Lin family saw Aunt Zhang Hua coming back and quickly stood up and moved his chair over.
"The daughter of your cousin's neighbor came to visit the third brother and brought him these precious things." Lin Sanmei put the things on the bedside table and gave the only chair to the pregnant woman Qiao Xinyi.
The little girl on the hospital bed became nervous when she saw that it was something she had never seen before.
"Are you going to take my sister away?" the little girl asked with a choked voice, then looked in the direction of her mother.
