Zhuang Xiaoting took Wu Shanshan's hand and took her home directly.
Huang Ling was cracking melon seeds and chatting with Song Ying. She was a little strange when she saw Wu Shanshan. After discovering that her hand was injured, she immediately went into the room and took out the red potion and wiped the wound carefully for Wu Shanshan.
Song Ying asked from the side: "Shanshan, how did your hand get injured?"
Wu Shanshan endured the pain and said: "I was helping my father decorate the house and I accidentally scratched it."
Song Ying suddenly said: "I see, then why didn't you tell Lao Wu that you were injured? Don't look at the small wound. If it gets infected and becomes inflamed, it will be very troublesome. You are a girl, and scars will not look good.
"
Wu Shanshan lowered her head and whispered: "My dad said it doesn't matter."
Song Ying said speechlessly: "This old Wu is too shameless. He doesn't care if his daughter is injured. What's the use of having him as a father?"
Huang Ling took a look at Wu Shanshan's face and reminded: "Old Wu may be busy with the wedding, Song Ying, you should say less."
Song Ying silently closed her mouth, feeling a little distressed for Wu Shanshan and said: "This man is just unreliable, there still needs to be a woman at home."
Huang Ling gently blew on Wu Shanshan's wound and asked, "Shanshan, does it still hurt?"
Wu Shanshan's eyes turned red, she shook her head and said, "It no longer hurts."
Huang Ling sighed, and then Wu Shanshan's stomach growled. She blushed and covered her stomach in embarrassment.
"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 still some boiled edamame left in the kitchen. You give it to Shanshan to eat, and I'll make some noodles."
"Aunt Huang, no need, I'll go home and eat." Wu Shanshan waved her hands quickly.
Song Ying said with a cold face: "What did Old Wu do? He didn't even give food to his children. Has Xiaojun eaten?"
Wu Shanshan hurriedly explained: "We have had dinner."
Song Ying snorted coldly: "That means you haven't eaten enough! Did you save the food for your brother?"
Wu Shanshan lowered her head and did not answer, which was regarded as acquiescence.
Huang Ling said distressedly: "You can have something at aunt's house! Your dad is getting married tomorrow and has many things to do, 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 make noodles, Wang Gang gave the remaining edamame to Wu Shanshan, and Zhuang Xiaoting also gave her her treasured White Rabbit toffee.
Wu Shanshan was even more moved when she felt the concern from her neighbors, and her tears kept flowing.
"Silly child, why are you crying?" Song Ying couldn't bear to see the child cry and quickly wiped it for Wu Shanshan.
The noodles were ready quickly, and they were just simple soy sauce noodles, but Wu Shanshan ate them very deliciously and devoured them as if she hadn't had a full meal in a long time.
Huang Ling also discovered that there were several holes in Wu Shanshan's clothes and no one was there to patch them, so she helped patch them up.
After eating noodles, Huang Ling asked Wang Gang to take Wu Shanshan home, while she and Song Ying chatted.
"Shanshan is a pitiful child. I don't know if the stepmother will treat her well in the future."
"I heard that the widow that Old Wu is looking for is bringing a daughter to marry. She has her own biological daughter. Can she treat Shanshan and Xiaojun well?" Song Ying said coldly:
"If you have a stepmother, you have a stepfather. I think Lao Wu is also unreliable. Only his own mother can protect her own cubs."
Huang Ling picked up Zhuang Xiaoting and sighed: "I can't even imagine what would happen if Tunan and Xiaoting had a stepmother?"
Song Ying smiled and said: "Sister Ling, don't think blindly. Your Tunan is so good that you can't afford to suffer. What's more, Teacher Zhuang is also very good now."
Huang Ling said with a smile: "Lao Zhuang has done really well during this period. Not only did he hand over all his wages, but he also helped with housework at home."
Song Ying smiled and said: "Mr. Zhuang is a very smart person! He knows that if he doesn't change, this family will not welcome him."
Huang Ling nodded and said: "Speaking of which, Tunan is the most powerful. He managed his father to be obedient. I didn't understand why Tunan's father and mother-in-law favored the third child, but now I understand a little better."
Song Ying asked curiously: "Why?"
Huang Ling said with a smile: "They have three children, the second one is a daughter, and she married out of town, so she is unreliable. Although Lao Zhuang is the eldest son, he is more promising and cannot be kept.
Only Lao Sanzhuang is chasing the beauty, and if you have no ability, you can only stay with the second elder. He is the best candidate for retirement, so my father and mother always prefer him. In the end, they also count on the third elder to provide for themselves in retirement."
Song Ying made it clear and said: "Teacher Zhuang is honest now, is it because he is worried that no one will care for him in the future?"
Huang Ling said with a smile: "It's not just for old age, he realizes that his father and mother-in-law are unreliable. If the situation gets to the point where his wife and children are separated, he will have no one to rely on."
Song Ying curled her lips and said: "Sister Ling, we are not outsiders. To be honest, Teacher Zhuang is still selfish and only thinks about himself."
Huang Ling sighed: "Yes! But Tunan said that just because his father is selfish, it is easy to manipulate him. If he were a selfless person, he would not be able to live this life at all."
Song Ying smiled and said: "Your Tunan is almost a man, and my family is a little afraid of him."
Huang Ling said: "Tunan people are smart, but they have nothing to say to me and Xiaoting. He also said that whoever treats him well will be rewarded twice as much. If anyone bullies us, he will not stand idly by."
"Why can't I have a son like Tunan!" Song Ying envied: "Sister Ling, you will have a son."
Huang Ling smiled and said: "Your Dongzhe is also very good, he is cute and lively."
"That skinny monkey will get me into trouble if he doesn't fight for two days." Song Ying said angrily, "I'm almost annoyed by him."
As the saying goes, Cao Cao has arrived. As soon as Song Ying finished speaking, Lin Dongzhe burst in crying and threw himself into Song Ying's arms.
Song Ying's expression 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 have a small butt."
Song Ying was stunned and immediately realized that her son was disliked by Uncle Zhang.
"This Lao Zhang just bought a TV! Why are you crazy!" Song Ying said unconvinced: "Son, don't go to his house to watch TV again."
"Ah." When Lin Dongzhe heard this, he stopped crying instantly and said with an aggrieved face: "I won't be able to watch TV anymore!?"
Song Ying gritted her teeth and said, "Let's buy a TV for ourselves instead of using other people's TVs."
Lin Dongzhe's glasses lit up and he said happily: "Really."
Song Ying said loudly: "Well, let's live frugally from now on and spend less money every day until we can save the money to buy a TV."
"Okay!" Lin Dongzhe jumped up and cheered.
Zhuang Xiaoting looked at Huang Ling with envy and asked, "Mom, can our family also buy a TV?"
Huang Ling said: "TVs 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 grandly: "Xiao Ting, don't worry. When my family buys a TV, you are welcome to come and watch it at any time. We are not as stingy as Uncle Zhang."
Lin Dongzhe said excitedly: "Mom, when can we buy a TV set?"
Song Ying thought for a while and said, "Save your father's and mine's salary and save it for more than half a year. It should be enough."
"Ah, it will take that long?" Lin Dongzhe's face immediately fell.
Huang Ling said to Song Ying at this time: "If you don't have enough money, I can lend you some."
Song Ying said in surprise: "Sister Ling, how much money do you have on hand?"
Huang Ling looked at the door, and then whispered: "I'm telling you, don't tell anyone, I still have a thousand yuan saved, all of which Tunan earned from writing stories."
Song Ying's eyes widened immediately. She didn't expect that Huang Ling was the little rich woman!
