Ru Yue: "What if you scold me again and make sarcastic remarks?"
"..." Ru Xin thought very seriously, her wet eyelashes unblinking, and finally, she said: "If I scold you again, you can hit me, kick me, or twist my stomach, okay?"
Ru Yue: "It's wrong to hit children. I'm not Tang Zihong, nor that bad old woman from the Cai family. I've never hit you at your age. Think about it carefully, is that true?"
Ru Yue looked up at her, tears welling up slowly and uncontrollably.
For a long time, she cried and said: "Sister, I promise that I will never scold you or say that I hate you again. If I do, I will go to Tang Zihong's place myself and let her strangle me to death, okay?"
Ru Yue still had a cold face: "Okay, then it's settled. Get up and lie down. The doctor said you have to lie down. Otherwise, if you are not in good health, you will have to live and spend money."
Ru Xin quickly got up.
But she had chest pain and couldn't climb up after lifting her feet for a long time.
Ru Yue carried her to bed: "It's very late. I'm going to buy noodles. I haven't eaten them yet."
Ru Xin: "Sister, you can buy a bowl. You can eat the noodles and I can drink the soup. I'll just drink the soup."
"You don't need to worry about this kind of thing. Just lie down, I'm going." Ru Yue said and walked out.
She leaned against the wall of the corridor, tears streaming down her face.
Life has always been difficult, but if Ru Xin can always be so sensible, she is willing to hold her and move forward together.
Ru Yue bought two bowls of noodles, one bowl of shredded pork, and one bowl of large ribs.
She put it in an enamel jar and put it in front of Ru Xin to show her: "Which one should I eat?"
Ru Xin frowned and scolded in an old-fashioned way: "Look at you, didn't I ask you to buy a bowl? Why do you waste money like this? If I scold you, you won't be happy, but you are such a prodigal, how can I?"
manage?"
Ru Yue wanted to laugh, but...
Why can't I laugh?
"This is because you are sick and I am also very tired, so we both need nutrition. You have bought everything, let's eat."
"Then...where's dad? Has dad eaten?"
"Dad knows how to feed himself. He's going to Uncle Lin to ask for leave now, and he'll be here with you tomorrow."
"If you stay with me...will your wages be deducted?"
"Yes. There is no perfect attendance award or anything like that. But I can't do it without accompanying you. The hospital doesn't let children stay here alone."
"I...can't even go home?"
"It's not impossible to go home. If your health is not cured, your health will get worse in the future, and you will often need to go to the hospital, which will cost you more money."
Ru Xin became extremely worried. She looked at the noodles, swallowed several times, raised her head and asked firmly: "Sister, you can return this noodles to me right away. Is it too late?"
"It's too late. How can I return food if I buy it? What if you spit in it?"
"Oh! Really, it's all you...forget it, I won't talk about you anymore! Then...I'll just eat the shredded pork. If you want to work, you can eat the big steak."
Ru Yue didn't push her, she picked up the big row of noodles and started eating.
Ru Xin also picked up the noodles, drank several mouthfuls of soup first, let out a sigh of satisfaction, and then called Ru Yue: "Bring the bowl."
"what?"
"I'll give you the meat."
"Why?"
"You have to work to make money."
Ru Yue thought for a moment and stretched out the enamel jar.
She watched Ru Xin pick out all the shredded meat in the bowl to her. Finally, she left a mouthful as big as a fingernail and stuffed it in her mouth, saying vaguely: "Eat quickly, go to work after eating, don't do anything else in the future."
Never buy something so expensive again.”
"Thank you." Ru Yue said this without any hesitation. She took the bowl back with peace of mind and ate with big mouthfuls.
In any relationship, if one party always pays, the final result will not be good.
Ru Xin can know how to be considerate and caring about others. This behavior must be encouraged.
Then I saw Ru Xin smiling: "Well, sister, hurry up and eat it, it's so delicious."
The two sisters had a meal like this.
When Ru Da Tao came over, Ru Yue left.
Before leaving, Ru Yue called out Ru Da Tao: "Dad, we have agreed that we will live the same life as before. Rich or not, we will not pamper or pamper her, but we will not let her feel inferior. So,
Don't tell her how much money I can make or how much money you can make."
"I know. Don't worry and go about your business. Dad knows that you are caring and well-behaved. I will listen to you."
Ru Yue burst out laughing: "Hahaha, Dad, I don't want you to listen to me. I'm afraid that Ru Xin will learn bad things from following Tang Zihong, and you think Ru Xin has suffered a lot these days, so you might think of compensating her.
Yes, but in fact, this little girl is very clever. As long as she finds out that we have this mentality, she will make further progress, so we still have to let her adapt for a period of time first, and then slowly improve her life."
Ru Datao scratched his head: "Okay. Originally, I wanted you to buy some clothes for her when you go to the small commodity market tomorrow, so forget it."
Ru Yue: "I will buy them, but I will only wear them for her during the Chinese New Year. Anyway, their school is about to have a holiday. I will go directly to the school to ask for a leave for her, let her rest at home for a few days, and then go to school after the Chinese New Year."
"Yeah, I forgot about asking for leave from school. It's better for you, my sister."
"Oh, I used to pack her schoolbag and send her to school, but then...it's okay. I'm going to school now, and I have to go back immediately to prepare the pearl milk tea for tomorrow. I'll come back to deliver food to you in the evening."
Ru Yue left in a hurry, first went to Ru Xin's school to ask for leave, and then hurried back to No. 23 Chengnan Street to prepare the milk tea ingredients to be sold tomorrow.
The house was quiet except for the little wolf who saw her coming back and came over to nuzzle her.
Ru Yue stroked it and brought him a small piece of meat and a steamed bun. The little wolf ate aside and shook his head.
Ru Yue washed her hands and started drying.
It was getting late. She got up at two o'clock in the morning today. She was so busy that she was already starting to feel sleepy. She wanted to seize the time to finish all the work so that she could relax for a while.
Just as her hands were covered with white powder and she was vigorously kneading the dough, someone knocked on the door outside.
Ru Yue was too focused, and because she was separated by two doors, she didn't hear it at first. The little wolf was lying next to the door and barking a few times outside, which reminded Ru Yue.
This dog is really well-behaved. It is usually very quiet. It never barks because someone is walking by it, nor does it act playfully when it sees people. When it barks, it means someone is coming outside.
Ru Yue waved her hand to signal it: "Okay, I understand. Stop barking and I'll listen to who it is."
The knock on the door outside was quite loud and urgent: "Is there anyone there? Is it the Zhong family? Is there anyone there?"
Ru Yue didn't even take off her apron. She rubbed the flour off her hands and opened the door: "Who is it?"
In a hurry, she casually brushed away her hair that had spread to the side of her face, opened the door, and saw two women standing at the door.
