Chapter 25



The next day, before dawn, Wang Chunhua woke Song Li up.

The bed in the hospital was more comfortable than the one at Song’s house. Song Li slept soundly that night.

She opened her eyes dazedly and saw Wang Chunhua's smiling face that was almost touching hers. Song Li's sleepiness was instantly scared away and she was so scared that her voice became incoherent.

"You...what are you doing?" Damn it, no matter how unhappy I am with her, I can't scare her so early in the morning!

Wang Chunhua couldn't stop laughing. She glanced at Song Li's hand covering her chest and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, Mom scared you!"

Song Li patted her frightened heart and thought, who wouldn't be afraid when seeing this big face of yours that can scare people to death?

Wang Chunhua is actually not ugly, her facial features can be considered pretty, but years of hard work have made her look like she is in her 50s even though she is just over 40 years old. Her face is especially rough and covered with spots, as she has been exposed to the wind and sun and has no conditions for maintenance.

It is really scary to be hit in the face when the person's mind is not yet clear.

"What are you doing?" Song Li glanced at the window, her face numb. She really couldn't understand why Wang Chunhua woke her up at this time?

Wang Chunhua patted Song Li's arm and said angrily, "You kid, are you confused because of sleep? Have you forgotten what day it is today?"

What day could it be today? Isn't it the day when the Fu family will come to pick up the bride?

"The Fu family is coming now?"

Wang Chunhua paused, then shook his head, "I heard from your father that they can't get off the train until the afternoon."

"Then why are you getting up now?" Oh my God, it's only about five in the morning, right? It's still seven hours before noon. Does she have to get up now to wait for the Fu family?

Whoever is willing to wait can wait, she won't wait.

Wang Chunhua said as a matter of course, "You are going to meet your in-laws today, why don't you get up and get ready?"

Song Li turned over and said in a muffled voice, "What is there to prepare?"

It's not like you're meeting an important national leader, so why make it so grand?

Wang Chunhua said with a smile, "Why don't you get up and wash yourself? Since there aren't many people in the hospital right now, I'll get you a basin of water. Please wipe yourself off."

Song Li was a little moved by Wang Chunhua's words. She had never taken a bath since she came here, except for simply wiping her body on the first night.

It's summer now, the weather is hot, and Song Li can smell the sweat on her body if she moves a little.

She really needs a bath.

"Mom, is there a bathhouse nearby? I want to take a bath." Song Li turned over and looked at Wang Chunhua expectantly.

Wang Chunhua shook her head. "Mom doesn't come to the county very often. Apart from the hospital, she is not familiar with any place. She doesn't even know where to take a shower."

I knew I couldn't take Song Li with me, but who knew what this girl was planning.

"Okay." Song Li lay back down. Since she couldn't take a bath, why did she get up so early? She could wash herself anytime. She could wait until she woke up.

Song Li lay back on the bed and closed her eyes.

Wang Chunhua was dumbfounded when she saw Song Li falling asleep. How did she fall asleep again?

She patted Song Li's arm twice again and said in a low voice, "Li Li, wake up."

Song Li turned over and faced away from Wang Chunhua, leaving her with a stubborn back.

Wang Chunhua: “…” Is this damn girl just sleepy?

Which girl who is about to get married is as calm as her?

When she learned that she was going to get married, she was so excited that she didn't sleep well for three days.

"Lili, wake up." She shook Song Li with greater strength.

Song Li said unhappily, "You can wait if you want. It's an injury, and you need to recover."

Wang Chunhua's lips trembled with anger. It wasn't her who was going to get married, so why should she wait?

She wanted to wake Song Li up, but was afraid of disturbing Song Cheng who was sleeping in the next bed, so she had to sit down beside Song Li's bed angrily, staring at the back of Song Li's head and gritting her teeth.

Song Li slept soundly until eight in the morning. Song Chengjing, who was in the bed next to her, woke up and even bought breakfast.

"Sister, hurry up and have dinner. I bought this especially for you." Song Cheng handed the bowl of porridge in his hand to Song Li to ask for credit, as if it were a treasure.

There was a bowl of yellow millet porridge in the enamel bowl, and Song Li's gluttony was aroused.

"Thank you for your hard work, brother. Get up immediately."

Song Cheng chuckled, "Not hard." He put the porridge in his hand on the table and walked towards the door with a gleam in his eyes, "Big sister, take your time to clean up. I'll go get you some water to wash your face."

As soon as the ward door was closed, Wang Chunhua came over with a big grin on her face. She took out a pair of new pants she had bought at the supply and marketing cooperative yesterday from her bag and said, "Lili, wear these new pants. Mom washed them for you last night."

Song Li put on new pants. Except for the waist being a little too big, everything else fit her well.

She is tall, has a good figure, and looks good in whatever she wears.

Wang Chunhua couldn't help but praise, "Li Li, these pants look really good on you." They were obviously the cheapest and most inconspicuous cotton pants, but they looked so good on Song Li.

Song Li held her waist with one hand, "It's because the waist of my pants is a little too big." It was really big, very big, she didn't dare to loosen her hand, if she loosened her pants, they would definitely fall to her ankles.

Wang Chunhua glanced at Song Li's slender waist and couldn't help but touch it. She said dissatisfiedly, "You have lost weight, it's not good. It will be difficult for you to have children in the future."

Song Li: “…”

Without waiting for Song Li to speak, she quickly withdrew her hand, took out a rope from her bag, and tied it around Song Li's waist, "Tie it first, and then you can adjust the waistband yourself when you get to your in-laws' house." She wanted to help her adjust it, but there was no needle and thread in her bag at the moment.

Song Li could only make do with it for now.

Song Li brushed her teeth, washed her face, and simply wiped her body with the water brought by Song Cheng before she started to eat breakfast.

After breakfast, the three of them sat in the ward, staring at each other, waiting for the Fu family to arrive.

Song Li is an impatient person. She really can't wait if she is asked to sit still and wait for someone.

"Mom, I want to go out for a walk."

Wang Chunhua immediately became alert. She grabbed Song Li's arm and said anxiously, "Your in-laws are coming soon. What are you doing outside now?"

"It's only ten o'clock now. It will take more than two hours for them to arrive. Besides, won't you feel bored staying in the ward?"

Wang Chunhua shook her head. "No, my head isn't stuffy at all."

Song Cheng on the side also shook his head, "Big sister, your head is not boring."

Song Li: “…”

"Li Li, please sit down and wait. Your father should have left for the county by now. Let's wait here for him to bring people."

Song Li paused for a moment and deliberately asked, "Is Dad coming to the county too?"

Wang Chunhua smiled at her and said, "Of course he will come, but your father has to go to the train station to pick up your in-laws first."

Song Wenshan has always been cautious in doing things. He did not give the Fu family the opportunity to go to the village and went directly to the train station to pick up the Fu family.

Song Li had no choice but to sit back down. She had to admit that Song Wenshan was indeed a stupid person.

Song Wenshan, who was deceived by Song Li's praise, had already boarded the bus to the county.

As soon as the bus arrived, he went straight to the train station and waited.

When Fu Heng called the Fu family, he said that they would probably arrive at the station at twelve o'clock.

Song Wenshan had never met the Fu family, but he had his own little tricks.

He found a small board and wrote the three big characters "Fu Yanci" on it.

He was standing at the exit, and when a person came out, he held up a board and started asking questions.

Song Wenshan waited until twelve o'clock and finally the Fu family arrived.
