The heavens set sail from the courtyard

Zhuang Xiaoting took Wu Shanshan's hand and took her home directly.

Huang Ling was cracking melon seeds and chatting with Song Ying. She looked a little surprised when she saw Wu Shanshan. After discovering that her hand was injured, she immediately went into the house, took out mercurochrome, and carefully wiped the wound for Wu Shanshan.

Song Ying asked beside him: "Shanshan, how did you hurt your hand?"

Wu Shanshan endured the pain and said, "I was helping my father decorate the house and I accidentally scratched myself."

Song Ying suddenly realized: "I see, then why didn't you tell Old Wu about your injury? Don't underestimate the wound. If it gets infected, it will be very troublesome. And you are a girl, and scars will not look good."

Wu Shanshan lowered her head and whispered: "My dad said it's okay."

Song Ying was speechless and said, "This old Wu is too outrageous. He doesn't even care about his daughter getting hurt. What's the point of having him as a father?"

Huang Ling looked at Wu Shanshan's face and reminded her: "Old Wu may be busy with the wedding, Song Ying, you should also say less."

Song Ying closed her mouth silently, and said with some pity for Wu Shanshan: "This man is just unreliable. There still needs to be a woman at home."

Huang Ling blew gently on Wu Shanshan's wound and asked, "Shanshan, does it still hurt?"

Wu Shanshan's eyes turned red and she shook her head, "It doesn't hurt anymore."

Huang Ling sighed. At this time, Wu Shanshan's stomach started to growl. Her face turned red and she covered her stomach embarrassedly.

"You haven't eaten yet?" Huang Ling asked in surprise.

"I've eaten." Wu Shanshan said shyly.

Huang Ling said without hesitation: "Tunan, there are some boiled edamame left in the kitchen. You can give them to Shanshan. I will cook some noodles."

"Auntie Huang, no thanks. I'll go home and eat." Wu Shanshan waved her hand quickly.

Song Ying said coldly: "What's wrong with Old Wu? He doesn't even give the child food. Has Xiaojun eaten yet?"

Wu Shanshan hurriedly explained: "We have already eaten."

Song Ying snorted coldly: "That means you are not full! Did you save the food for your brother?"

Wu Shanshan lowered her head and did not answer, which was considered as her consent.

Huang Ling said distressedly: "You can have something to eat at your aunt's house! Your father will be getting married tomorrow and will be busy with many things, so he may not be able to take care of you."

Song Ying said: "I still have some steamed buns at home. You can take them home later. If Xiaojun is hungry, give them to him."

Huang Ling went to the kitchen to cook noodles, Wang Gang gave the remaining edamame to Wu Shanshan, and Zhuang Xiaoting also gave her her treasured White Rabbit milk candy.

Wu Shanshan felt the care from her neighbors and was so moved that she couldn't stop crying.

"Silly child, why are you crying?" Song Ying couldn't bear to see the child cry, so she hurried to wipe Wu Shanshan's tears.

The noodles were cooked quickly, they were just simple soy sauce noodles, but Wu Shanshan ate them with relish, wolfing them down, as if she hadn’t had a full meal in a long time.

Huang Ling also found that Wu Shanshan's clothes had several holes and no one was mending them for her, so she helped to patch them.

After eating the noodles, Huang Ling asked Wang Gang to take Wu Shanshan home while she chatted with Song Ying.

"Shanshan is such a pitiful child. I don't know if her stepmother will treat her well in the future."

"I heard that the widow that Old Wu found recently wants to bring a daughter to marry here. She has her own biological daughter. Can she be good to Shanshan and Xiaojun?" Song Ying said coldly:
"If there is a stepmother, there must be a stepfather. I think Old Wu is also unreliable. Only a mother will protect her own child."

Huang Ling picked up Zhuang Xiaoting and sighed: "I don't even dare to think about what would happen if Tunan and Xiaoting had a stepmother?"

Song Ying smiled and said, "Sister Ling, don't let your imagination run wild. Your Tunan is very capable and won't suffer any loss. Besides, isn't Teacher Zhuang doing well now?"

Huang Ling smiled and said: "Lao Zhuang has been doing really well recently. Not only has he handed over all his wages, he has also helped with housework at home."

Song Ying smiled and said, "Teacher Zhuang is very smart! He knows that if he doesn't change, he will not be welcomed in this family."

Huang Ling nodded and said, "Tunan is really good. He made his father obedient. I didn't understand why Tunan's father and grandmother favored the third child. Now I understand a little." Song Ying asked curiously, "Why?"

Huang Ling said with a smile: "They have three children. The second one is a daughter, and she married to another place, so she can't be relied on. Although Lao Zhuang is the eldest son, he is more promising and can't be kept.

Only the third son is handsome and has no ability, so he has to stay with the second elders. He is the best candidate for old-age care, so the father and grandmother always favor him. In the final analysis, they are counting on the third son to take care of them in their old age. "

Song Ying understood everything and said, "Teacher Zhuang is being quiet now, is it because he is worried that no one will take care of him in his old age?"

Huang Ling smiled and said: "It's not just for the sake of retirement. He realized that his father and grandmother are unreliable. If things really get to the point where his wife and children are separated, he will be left alone."

Song Ying pouted and said, "Sister Ling, we are not outsiders. To be honest, Mr. Zhuang is still selfish and only cares about himself."

Huang Ling sighed: "Yes! But Tunan said that it is precisely because his father is selfish that he is easy to control. If he were a selfless person, he would not be able to live like this."

Song Ying smiled and said, "Your Tunan is almost a smart guy. My wife is a little afraid of him."

Huang Ling said: "The Tunan people are smart, but they have nothing to say to Xiaoting and me. He also said that if anyone treats him well, he will return it double. If anyone bullies us, he will not stand idly by."

"Why can't I have a son like Tunan?" Song Ying said enviously: "Sister Ling, you are the one who can give birth to a son."

Huang Ling smiled and said, "Your Dongzhe is also very good, cute and lively."

"That naughty boy, he gets me into trouble if I don't beat him up for two days." Song Ying said angrily, "I'm almost annoyed to death by him."

As the saying goes, speak of the devil and he will appear. As soon as Song Ying finished speaking, Lin Dongzhe rushed in crying and threw himself into Song Ying's arms.

Song Ying's face changed and she asked, "Dongzhe, why are you crying? Who bullied you?"

Lin Dongzhe said aggrievedly: "I went to Grandpa Zhang's house to watch TV, and Grandpa Zhang said that I was small but had a big butt."

Song Ying was stunned and immediately realized that her son was disliked by Uncle Zhang.

"This old Zhang just bought a TV! What's the big deal?" Song Ying said unconvincedly: "Son, don't go to his house to watch TV anymore."

"Ah." Lin Dongzhe stopped crying instantly after hearing this, and said with a wronged look on his face: "I won't have any TV to watch anymore!"

Song Ying gritted her teeth and said, "Let's buy our own TV instead of borrowing someone else's."

Lin Dongzhe's glasses lit up and he said happily: "Really."

Song Ying said firmly: "Well, we will be frugal from now on and spend less money every day until we save enough money to buy a TV."

"Great!" Lin Dongzhe jumped up and cheered.

Zhuang Xiaoting looked at Huang Ling with some envy and asked, "Mom, can we buy a TV too?"

Huang Ling said in embarrassment: "TV sets are too expensive. The cheapest one costs several hundred yuan, and you need a ticket to buy it."

Zhuang Xiaoting said sensibly: "Then we won't buy it."

Song Ying said generously: "Don't worry, Xiaoting. When my family buys a TV, you are welcome to come and watch it anytime. We are not as stingy as Uncle Zhang."

Lin Dongzhe said excitedly: "Mom, when can we buy a TV?"

Song Ying thought for a moment and said, "If we use your father's and my salary sparingly, it should be enough to save for half a year."

"Ah, it takes so long?" Lin Dongzhe's face immediately fell.

Huang Ling then said to Song Ying: "If you don't have enough money, I can lend you some."

Song Ying asked in surprise: "Sister Ling, how much money do you have?"

Huang Ling looked at the door, then whispered: "I'm telling you, don't tell anyone, I still have a thousand dollars saved, all earned by Tunan writing stories."

Song Ying's eyes widened immediately. She didn't expect Huang Ling to be the rich lady! (End of this chapter)
