As the night fell, Xiao Huzi carried Wang Qing out of the car and sent her upstairs.
Ah Hu had just coaxed Xiao Xiaohu to sleep, and quickly helped Wang Qing to sleep.
"How's it going? What did the doctor say?"
Xiao Huzi lowered his voice and replied: "The doctor said it was acute gastroenteritis. He gave me an intravenous drip and then took the medicine home."
"Oh, oh." Ahu responded: "You go take a bath and rest, and leave your mother to me."
Xiao Huzi turned to leave, but turned his head hurriedly and reminded: "Dad, the doctor said that my mother's blood pressure is a little too low. If you find that it is even lower, you have to go to the hospital quickly. You must not delay."
"Oh? Okay!" Ahu nodded: "I will measure her blood pressure tomorrow."
Xiao Huzi hurriedly took a hot bath and wanted to go downstairs to have something to eat. When he passed by his son's room, he stopped and quietly slipped in. He found that there was only his eldest son sleeping soundly and no younger son.
He hurriedly went to his old father to ask.
Ahu replied: "Your mother hasn't been feeling well these past two days, so your aunt has been helping to take care of the mini tiger. He will stay at the garden tonight and wait for your mother to feel better tomorrow before picking up the little boy."
Xiao Huzi was a little worried, so he hurried downstairs and found that the nanny had taken a break. The kitchen was deserted, with only one or two leftovers, which looked unappetizing.
He simply turned off the light and went straight to Xinyuan.
In the large living room, Cheng Tianyuan rocked back and forth holding the mini tiger that had just fallen asleep.
Xue Ling was washing the baby bottles at the side.
Xiao Huzi said hello softly and stepped forward to take a look at his youngest son.
Cheng Tianyuan lowered his voice: "Don't touch him, so as not to wake him up. I'll take him back to his room to sleep first."
"Where to sleep?" Xiao Huzi shook his head: "How about I take him back to sleep."
Xue Ling whispered: "Sleep with us, so that the child will not find anyone to be afraid of when he wakes up in the middle of the night. When he wakes up, we will find out at once. One person will coax him and the other will make milk powder."
Seeing that they had made arrangements, and thinking about his old mother who was still asleep, Xiao Huzi had no choice but to give up.
"Uncle Yuan, Auntie, I'm lucky to have you..."
Cheng Tianyuan glanced at him and said: "We are all from the same family, why are we so polite? Why do we live so close together? The reason is that we can help each other when we are busy."
After saying this, he went back to the room with the mini tiger in his arms.
Xue Ling put away the milk bottles and asked with concern: "Did you have dinner at the hospital?"
"...I haven't eaten yet." Xiao Huzi smiled bitterly: "My mother is very sick and groggy, so I don't dare to leave. I originally wanted to order takeout, but the doctor said I could leave, so I took my mother home first."
Xue Ling quickly got up and hurried to the back kitchen.
After a while, she came back with two plates of snacks.
"Lao Li made this in the afternoon, and it's still very fresh. Come on, let's eat something to fill your stomach. There's also chicken soup in the kitchen. I'll ask Lao Li to cook a bowl of noodles."
The little tiger was very hungry, so he grabbed a piece of cake and ate it.
"I knew I wouldn't go hungry when I came here."
Xue Ling looked at his thinner cheeks and felt secretly distressed.
"Huzi, you have to look forward. Now you have seniors and juniors, and they all have to rely on you. You must take care of yourself and make good money to support the family."
"Yes." Xiao Huzi smiled, with tears glistening in the corners of his eyes: "Auntie, I know. Don't worry, I will definitely work harder than before."
When others ask about it, they always advise him not to be sad and not to be looked down upon by others. Some people also curse and say that they never thought that a woman like Shan You would cuckold him...etc.
In fact, he didn't want to talk about this topic at all, let alone others to comfort him.
He doesn't need or want to be comforted.
Only his uncle and aunt didn't ask anything, didn't care or comfort him, and still loved him and helped him as usual.
He stumbled around a lot and found that when you are exposed to too many things, many things are not worth being sad or sad about, because as long as you have money and status, many problems are no longer problems and many difficulties can be easily solved.
In the final analysis, it is because of his lack of ability and because he does not make enough money.
For the sake of the elderly and children, and even more for himself, he had to work hard, and he had no time to regret or feel sad about the past.
If you are a man, you must be able to bend and stretch!
Xue Ling smiled slightly and said warmly: "Do a good job and let us know if you need help. Although our abilities are average, we have more people and more strength, so we can help more or less."
"Okay." Xiao Huzi smiled and narrowed his eyes: "Thank you, Auntie."
After a while, Lao Li brought over a large bowl of noodles, which was steaming hot and smelling of beef.
Xiao Huzi said excitedly: "Wow! I like beef noodles the best! Thank you, Uncle Li!"
"You're welcome, you're welcome." Old Li smiled and said, "Put the bowls and chopsticks aside after you're done. I'll clean them up later."
Xue Ling shook his head: "No, I can just clean up the dishes. Lao Li, you should go to rest early."
"Hey!" Lao Li answered, but he was hesitant to speak and turned his head: "Madam... then I'm going to have a rest."
Xue Ling raised her eyebrows slightly and asked, "Old Li, is something wrong?"
Lao Li scratched his hair in embarrassment and hesitated: "There is something... I want to ask my wife."
Xue Ling smiled: "But it doesn't matter."
Lao Li blushed and whispered: "My son was laid off a few years ago and came to work here in the imperial capital. My daughter-in-law didn't trust him, so she came with her two children. The family didn't make much, so they had to work in the capital.
I rent a small apartment a few rings outside the city. Now that my grandchildren are older, it’s not easy to squeeze into that small shabby house all the time. I have worked here in Xinyuan for so many years, with food and accommodation included, and subsidies during the New Year and holidays.
I saved some money. I paid them the down payment and helped them buy a small second-hand house on the Third Ring Road, about 60 square meters."
Xue Ling chuckled and nodded: "This is a good thing! Congratulations!"
"Haha!" Lao Li smiled contentedly and explained: "Being able to buy a house here was something I never dared to think about before. I sold the house in my hometown and helped raise some down payment and renovated it. Now I can finally live in it with my family.
I'm so happy! The rent has just expired. My son and daughter-in-law are busy moving these days, and the grandchildren have no place to live for the time being. I don't worry if I go out to rent a house. They are teenagers and half-year-olds, and they need help from adults.
Staring. My son and daughter-in-law want me to help take care of them for a few days. I...I am a little embarrassed and dare not agree."
Xue Ling said "Oh?" and asked, "Will I come here to stay with you for a few days? No problem!"
"Is it really possible?" Lao Li whispered sheepishly: "I thought I would be alone in my room. It is big and wide, and there are a few small beds... I just don't know if it will be inconvenient."
"It's convenient." Xue Ling said warmly: "It's only a few days, let them come."
Lao Li was extremely grateful and left after thanking him repeatedly.
While Xiao Huzi was eating noodles, he looked thoughtfully at Lao Li's happy back.
"Many people have struggled for most of their lives and never been able to buy a house in the imperial capital... Look! Uncle Li is smiling so happily!"
