" Nian Nian, are you really going?" Lin's mother didn't have a good impression of the Si Family now and was also very disappointed with Lin Sisi.
Right now, Lin Sisi was going to marry her daughter's former fiancé, and yet she still invited her daughter over. She didn't know what kind of intentions she had.
She really didn't want her daughter to see such a scene. It would be too cruel to her.
Si Nian counted and then put a stack of large - denomination bills into her bag. Hearing this, she smiled and said, "Yes, why not?"
They had even invited her over on their own initiative.
She was still waiting to watch a good show.
Even if they didn't invite her, Si Nian would still go.
Not only would she go, but the Lin family members might also go.
Looking at her daughter's expression, Lin's mother was puzzled. How could her daughter be so happy when her fiancé was going to marry someone else?
Zhou Yueshen came in the afternoon.
He was holding fruits and some snacks in his hand.
Si Nian happened to come out to fetch hot water and ran into him.
Zhou Yueshen looked at her and said in a low voice, "How is Mom?"
Si Nian replied, "She's fine, but the doctor said she needs to be hospitalized for observation for some time."
Zhou Yueshen nodded, stepped forward and handed the fruit bag to her. "Give me the cup. I'll go and fetch the water."
Si Nian didn't refuse. She took the bag and then handed the cup to him. "Here."
Their fingertips touched, and he glanced at her.
Si Nian looked calm. She was no longer the kind of person who would blush at just a touch of the hand.
She walked into the ward.
Zhou Yueshen stood there for two seconds, looked at her back for a while, then suddenly hooked his lips and smiled faintly. Then he turned around to fetch the water.
He was dressed differently from usual today. Finally, he wasn't wearing a white undershirt.
The watch on his hand was particularly eye - catching.
With his tall figure, he stood in the water room to fetch hot water. When he slightly lowered his eyes, his eyebrows and eyes were cold and sharp, and his side profile was well - defined.
He attracted several glances from the people and nurses around.
"Hey, young man, I remember you. Was that girl who quarreled with someone yesterday your sister? She's really good - looking and very brave. If it were someone else, they wouldn't have the courage."
Zhou Yueshen turned around. It was a gossiping old lady in a hospital gown. She was looking at him with a big smile at the moment.
Her withered hand was holding a cup, trembling slightly.
Zhou Yueshen stepped aside. "She is very brave."
After all, such things were quite common in the village.
But she was the only one who dared to do it like this.
Not to mention others, Zhou Yueshen was also quite surprised.
Of course, he also agreed with Si Nian's decision.
Under the curious gazes of the crowd, Zhou Yueshen added, "However, she is not my sister, but my wife."
After saying that, he left the water room regardless of the surprised expressions of the crowd.
Well, Zhou Yueshen was already thirty years old, tall, big - built, mature and steady.
While Si Nian was only eighteen, in the prime of her youth and beauty, looking young. She was dainty and charming.
No one would believe that she and Zhou Yueshen were husband and wife.
Zhou Yueshen entered the ward.
Si Nian was peeling an orange and talking to Lin's mother.
Her voice was gentle.
She sat upright with a graceful figure and a delicate side profile.
Her long eyelashes fluttered from time to time, like a butterfly.
Lin's father was resting on a chair beside. Zhou Suisui had been sent back.
This hospital was not big, and there were many patients coming every day. There were originally not enough beds, so it was also tiring for family members to accompany the patients.
Moreover, they had to set up a stall tomorrow. Now that Lin's mother was unable to help, they could only let Zhou Suisui set up the stall alone.
She couldn't stop doing business just because of her illness.
Coincidentally, Lin's father had a problem with his legs and couldn't do much. He was here to keep an eye on things.
Seeing her daughter and son - in - law come to visit her, Lin's mother was very pleased and also a little embarrassed.
The two of them stayed for a while and talked to her.
Worried about the children at home and seeing that it was getting late, Lin's mother also urged them to go back quickly.
She also said, "You don't have to bring food here in the future. Your dad and I have found someone to help. We'll eat in the hospital canteen from now on. It's very cheap."
"It's so tiring to bring food from so far away."
Finally, amidst Lin's mother's nagging, Si Nian and Zhou Yueshen left the hospital.
Si Nian followed the man out of the door. Not seeing the car, she was a little surprised. "Where's your car? How did you come here?"
Zhou Yueshen glanced at her. "I delivered goods to the city this morning and left the car there. Your brother goes to practice driving every day. He'll drive it back when he comes back."
Si Nian understood, but her mood was a bit complicated. "Zhou Yueshen, why are you so nice to my family?"
You know, getting a driver's license, especially a truck driver's license, was not an easy thing.
And Zhou Yueshen not only let her brother learn but also left the car there for him. Knowing that her brother was the kind of person who would rather walk for hours to save a few dollars, he took a taxi back himself.
This old man seemed cold - hearted on the surface, but in fact, he was nicer than anyone else.
Si Nian even began to doubt the description in the book. Why did it always say that he was hard to approach and had a cold personality?
Zhou Yueshen was stunned for a moment.
It seemed that he didn't expect Si Nian to ask this question.
He lowered his eyes, stared into her eyes, and after a long while, under Si Nian's confused gaze, he finally said, "Because they are your family."
After saying that, he seemed to pause for a moment, as if organizing his words, and then naturally said, "And you... are my wife."
Si Nian blinked her eyes.
"Because of me?"
Zhou Yueshen nodded slightly. "Yes, because of you."
On the way back, they rode Si Nian's bicycle.
Si Nian sat on the back and hugged the man's strong waist.
Zhou Yueshen was tall and rode the bicycle easily.
Even with Si Nian sitting on the back, he didn't feel any pressure at all.
Si Nian was no longer as shy as the first time she sat on his motorcycle. She openly hugged the man in front of her and looked around with her beautiful eyes.
There were quite a lot of people in the town, and there were also many food stalls.
Si Nian looked around, wanting to see if there was any delicious food to bring back for the little kids.
Just then, she saw a group of kids gathered around a place. She quickly tugged at Zhou Yueshen's clothes. "Zhou Yueshen, I want to buy that."
The bicycle stopped, and Si Nian got off.
Zhou Yueshen also got off and pushed the bicycle over with her.
They saw that an old man was selling sugar figurines.
Si Nian stared at the old man's craftsmanship. The sugar figurines were so vivid. She said, "Little Han hasn't been allowed to eat sugar since he changed his teeth. I want to buy some for him."
The little guy was so afraid of toothache that even when Si Nian sometimes felt sorry for him and gave him one or two candies, the greedy kid could hold back from taking them.
He could only stare at his sister longingly. It was really pitiful.
Si Nian thought that buying these sugar figurines back for Little Han would surely make him happy.
So she asked the man beside her, "Zhou Yueshen, what's Little Han's Chinese zodiac sign?"
Zhou Yueshen thought for a while and said in a low voice, "Dragon. He was born at the end of December."
"What about Little Dong and Yaoyao?"
"Little Dong is a Tiger, and Yaoyao is a Sheep."
Si Nian nodded and said to the old man selling sugar figurines, "Grandpa, draw these three for me."
"Sure thing!"
The two of them standing among a group of kids were particularly conspicuous.
All of a sudden, someone beside them spoke up, "You, are you Comrade Zhou?" The two of them turned their heads and saw a woman in her late twenties. She was holding the hand of a child about ten years old. Apparently, they had also come to buy sugar figurines.
