Chapter 141 Taking care of Pengpeng and Xinxin

The group watched as A-Qiu, with a bandage around his head, struggled to sit up from the bed. His originally dark face had turned ashen, and he looked very listless.

Upon seeing this, Hong Xiu and Su Nuannuan quickly entered the ward and pressed A Qiu back down.

Hong Xiu's voice was somewhat stern.

"You are still recovering and cannot do strenuous activities."

Su Nuannuan also spoke up.

"Yes, Qiu, you still need an IV drip. If there's anything you need, you can tell me."

Thinking of A Qiu's personality, Su Nuannuan added.

“You don’t need to worry about money. The person who hit you before paid you 250 yuan, and Boss Huang is also going to give you 100 yuan as compensation.”

At this moment, Huang Ajiao also spoke up.

"Yes, just focus on recovering in the hospital."

When A Qiu heard what Su Nuannuan and Huang Ajiao said, a smile appeared on her face, her eyes filled with gratitude.

When they met A-Qiu's gaze, everyone present felt a pang of pity for her. Knowing that she couldn't speak, no one asked any further questions.

Su Nuannuan handed over the 250 yuan she had to A Qiu, and Huang Ajiao also gave her 100 yuan. After learning where the money came from, A Qiu did not refuse.

At this moment, Huang Ajiao spoke to a girl who was about 1.5 meters tall.

"Juanzi, you stay here to take care of Aqiu. You can come back to work after Aqiu is discharged from the hospital."

Leaving someone to take care of A-Qiu was Huang A-Jiao's greatest act of kindness. After instructing Juanzi, Huang A-Jiao left.

Juanzi and Aqiu were about the same age, and they seemed to have a good relationship. Aqiu was visibly happy that Juanzi stayed.

Then, as if he had thought of something, he looked at Su Nuannuan, the only two people he knew, and hesitated to speak.

Upon seeing this, Su Nuannuan immediately thought of A Qiu's younger brother and sister.

So, he took the initiative to speak.

"Ah Qiu, you're worried about Pengpeng and Xinxin."

A Qiu nodded, looking at Su Nuannuan with pleading eyes, her mouth opening and closing.
Su Nuannuan realized that A Qiu was referring to 'Pengpeng and Xinxin'. Su Nuannuan knew she wanted the two children to stay with her at the hospital. Her first reaction was disapproval. A Qiu herself was a patient; how could she take care of two young children?
Moreover, apart from the single beds for patients, there is no place to sleep in this hospital, let alone eat.

Su Nuannuan shook her head and said.

"I won't bring Pengpeng and Xinxin with me. They can stay with me for the next few days, and I'll bring them back after you're discharged from the hospital."

A Qiu shook her head, wanting to refuse, but was quickly interrupted by Su Nuannuan.

“You still need treatment in the next couple of days, and Pengpeng and Xinxin definitely can’t stay in the hospital. It’s better for them to stay with me.”

Seeing this, Juanzi tugged at Aqiu's sleeve. Aqiu didn't react.

Upon seeing this, Su Nuannuan said to A Qiu.

"In a little while, I'll bring Pengpeng and Xinxin to my home, so you can rest assured and recover here."

A Qiu nodded and gave Su Nuannuan a smile.

Before leaving, A Qiu took a small wooden gourd, which was tied with a red string, off her neck and handed it to Su Nuannuan.

Su Nuannuan took it and asked.

"Is this for Pengpeng and Xinxin?"

A Qiu nodded.

Su Nuannuan was confused, but she did not refuse.

Seeing that Juanzi was taking care of A Qiu, Su Nuannuan left with Zhou Menglu and the others. They didn't know A Qiu, so there was nothing for them to say.

After leaving the hospital, Su Nuannuan said to Zhou Menglu and the others.

"Thank you all for today. Without further ado, I'll bring you some canned fruit next week. It's getting late, you should head home and back to school now."

Upon hearing Su Nuannuan's words, Zhou Menglu waved her hand first and said.

"It's nothing. Since we're your friends, we'll naturally lend a hand. Oh, and send me some more canned strawberries!"

Upon hearing Zhou Menglu's last words, everyone else laughed. Su Nuannuan also responded with a smile.

"Don't worry, you'll get your share."

Pang Pang whispered to Zhou Menglu.

"Monroe, don't worry. You can have all the canned food Nuannuan gave me."

After saying that, he patted his chest. Hong Xiu and Sun Xiuhua looked at Pang Pangpang with strange expressions. Why didn't they believe what Pang Pangpang said? Could this chubby boy really resist the temptation of canned fruit?

At this moment, Pang Pangpang had no idea that a few days later he would watch Zhou Menglu eat canned fruit, while he could only watch and drool.

Chu Mingzhou looked at Su Nuannuan and raised his eyebrows.

Su Nuannuan smiled.

"Don't worry, I still have you."

Upon hearing Su Nuannuan's words, a hint of satisfaction flashed deep in Chu Mingzhou's eyes.

Seeing that there was nothing more they could do to help, Zhou Menglu and the others were persuaded to leave by Su Nuannuan.

Su Nuannuan looked at Chu Mingzhou, who hadn't left, and said.

"Why don't you leave?"

Chu Mingzhou looked at Su Nuannuan and said.

"I'll go with you to pick up the child."

Hearing Chu Mingzhou's words, Su Nuannuan didn't refute them. One more person wouldn't make a difference.

"Okay, let's go together."

Then, the two walked together toward A-Qiu's house.

Along the way, Su Nuannuan asked Chu Mingzhou many questions about the preparation of traditional Chinese medicine, and Chu Mingzhou answered them honestly. Their back-and-forth conversation was very harmonious.

Su Nuannuan hadn't expected Chu Mingzhou to be so capable, no less so than her current teacher. He could answer all her questions, and even expand on deeper concepts.

After resolving her own problem, Su Nuannuan sighed.

"Chu Mingzhou, you are very impressive."

"Yes, that's what everyone says."

Chu Mingzhou did not refute, but calmly acknowledged his own intelligence.

Su Nuannuan was taken aback; this was the first time she had met someone so straightforward. At this time, people were usually either simple and humble. But Chu Mingzhou was different; he never refused praise.

Su Nuannuan found it somewhat amusing.

"You really aren't humble at all."

Chu Mingzhou's expression relaxed, and he asked in return.

"Isn't this what I deserve? Why should I be humble?"

Su Nuannuan was speechless at Chu Mingzhou's words. Indeed, Chu Mingzhou's reaction was a normal one.

However, this reaction, when applied to him, has an unexpectedly endearing quality.

Seeing that Su Nuannuan was stumped by his question, a smile flashed in Chu Mingzhou's eyes.

After walking for a while, the two arrived at A Qiu's house.

Across from A Qiu's house was a scrap metal recycling station. Su Nuannuan had been there with A Qiu before and remembered it clearly. Back then, A Qiu had even pointed out the direction of his house to her.

Arriving at A Qiu's door, Su Nuannuan knocked.

A short while later, Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou heard some movement inside. However, the movement only lasted for about ten seconds before falling silent.

Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou exchanged a glance, and Su Nuannuan continued to knock on the door.

However, this time there was no sound. Su Nuannuan waited for a long time, but no one opened the door.
