"What's that sound?"
Mo Ke, who was brushing her teeth in the bathroom, suddenly heard something fall on the ground outside. At the same time, she heard the nurse's scream, which seemed to be full of pity and anger.
She walked out with a toothbrush in her mouth and saw the insulated box lying on the ground in disorder. A few white buns also slipped out. Shen Youchu was bending down to clean it up.
"Aunt."
Before Mo Ke asked, her nephew took the initiative to speak with an apologetic smile, "I just wanted to pick up the insulated box to check it, but my hand slipped and fell …"
"Oh."
Mo Ke's gaze swept across Shen Youchu and the nurse's faces before she nodded expressionlessly.
"I'm so sorry."
Her nephew apologized to Shen Youchu again, "How much are these buns? I can pay you back … Hey, don't cry. It's not worth it."
Shen Youchu brought a total of eight buns, and three of them fell out.
After she picked up the three buns, she found that the originally soft skin had been stained with some dust. She puffed up her mouth and blew at it, but found that it didn't work. In the end, she could only pull off the dirty skin bit by bit.
Tears started to roll down her cheeks as she tried to hold on to them.
Shen Youchu's experience was very tough growing up. Before she met Chen Hansheng, she had free soup and rice in the canteen. After Chen Hansheng entered her life, although the living conditions improved a lot, the habit of frugality was engraved in her bones.
Chen Hansheng often joked that the bowl and plate Shen Youchu ate could be used as a mirror, because not a single grain of rice was left.
The three buns were indeed worthless. Even the material cost of a pot of buns was less than 20 yuan. However, looking at the skin that was pulled off, Shen Youchu was very reluctant to part with it.
"Little girl, don't take the ones that fell on the ground."
The nurses who were doing the rounds came to persuade her.
This floor belonged to the senior officials of the hospital. Basically, there were leaders living here. These nurses were all over 25 years old and had several years of working experience.
When they saw that Shen Youchu was younger than them and that her tears were as clear as pearls when she cried, their hearts ached for her.
Some helped to wipe her tears, some comforted her, and some even took the three buns away and put them on the table, not letting Shen Youchu touch them again.
"Is it enough if I pay 50 yuan?"
In front of Mo Ke, the nephew took out a 50 yuan note from his wallet and said.
However, Shen Youchu and the nurses ignored him. He took out another 100 yuan bill and said, "100 yuan should be enough!"
"I don't need your money!"
A nurse couldn't stand it anymore and said, "You did it on purpose …"
"Cough! There's nothing else here. You can go to another ward. "
One of the older nurses stopped her.
This was Mo Ting's nephew. Although everyone could tell that his hand had slipped on purpose, there was no need for him to get involved in the leader's family matters.
Besides, it was just a few buns. He just needed to coax this little girl.
"Anyway, I put the money here."
The nephew put the money under the three buns. He felt that this matter had come to an end, and he had vented his anger in his heart.
"Aunt, do you want to eat breakfast?"
The nephew signaled his wife to take out the English cereal and said with a smile, "It's rich in protein and vitamins."
"I don't eat this. It's late. Liu Xu, you should go to work."
Mo Ke saw that Shen Youchu slowly stopped crying and went back to the bathroom to brush her teeth.
"Then what do you want to eat? You can't skip breakfast."
The nephew was called Liu Xu. He followed Mo Ke to the bathroom.
Mo Ke didn't say anything. When she finished brushing her teeth and walked out, her eyes stayed on her nephew for half a minute.
When Liu Xu felt that his bones and blood were about to be seen through, Mo Ke pointed at the insulated box and said, "I can eat the remaining buns."
"Oh … Then I'll go now. I'll come to see you tonight."
Liu Xu didn't dare to stay any longer and left in a hurry.
In the past, Mo Ke always appeared to be kind and amiable in front of her family and juniors.
Of course, because of social labels such as "DINK", "vegetarian", "rich and powerful", she seemed to be a little far away from ordinary people and gave off an otherworldly feeling.
However, in Mo Ke's eyes just now, Liu Xu saw the common look of a leader.
What kind of look was a leader's eyes? Calm, polite, wise, serious, vulgar …
Liu Xu suddenly regretted that he had been blinded by jealousy just now. He was about to be smashed into the ground. Liu Xu suddenly regretted being blinded by jealousy.
… …
After Liu Xu and his wife left, the nurse in charge of the ward rounds also left soon after. When the nanny was about to take out the porridge and the remaining buns, Mo Ke waved her hand and said, "Let me do it."
"Shen."
Mo Ke looked at Shen Youchu whose eyes were a little red and swollen, "Have you eaten breakfast?"
Shen Youchu shook her head. She wanted to give the steaming buns to Mo Ke for breakfast before going back to school. She didn't even have time to eat.
"Then you can eat with me."
Mo Ke filled two bowls of porridge and even opened the homemade chili sauce that Shen Youchu brought over.
"En ~ ~ ~ It's very fragrant, I guess that even Chen Hansheng doesn't dare to eat it, only Sister Chuan is able to swallow it."
Mo Ke smelled and said.
Shen Youchu was a little embarrassed and pouted her little face while looking elsewhere.
"Come on, I don't want to eat alone."
Mo Ke held onto Shen Youchu's hand and walked towards the dining table, "Today, you can take a day off from school and stay here to accompany me."
"Oh?"
Shen Youchu had never taken a day off during her three years in university. Sometimes, when the teachers forgot a certain topic, they could just ask her about it and they would know.
"Today, I feel a little stuffy in my chest."
Mo Ke let out a long sigh, "I just want to find someone to talk to, please help me."
Shen Youchu saw that Mo Ke's face was filled with expectation and lightly replied, "En."
"Alright!"
Mo Er's mother was very happy. She had always paid attention to her health, but this time, she actually ate two vegetable buns for breakfast.
After breakfast, the sun was rising from the east and the air was quite fresh. The morning mist in Jianye gradually faded away and gradually gave rise to a sense of warmth.
Mo Ke silently stared at the balcony for a while and suddenly said, "Youchu, just now Liu Xu threw away the thermos container on purpose, right?"
"Oh?"
Shen Youchu raised her head. At that time, Mo Ke was in the bathroom and shouldn't have seen the whole process.
"Auntie, please apologize on his behalf."
Mo Ke patted the back of Shen Youchu's hand, "It's not right to throw away food. It's also not right to be too jealous. It's also not right to think that they are smart. I don't like them."
Shen Youchu lowered her head. She just felt that it shouldn't be wasted and didn't have any other thoughts.
"Actually, I know what they mean in my heart."
Mo Ke's eyes were deep and calm, "Hansheng should have said that I don't have any children. Actually, I have thought of adopting a child before and even went to the orphanage to take a look. But I'm a picky person and haven't found a suitable one …"
Mo Er's mother indeed had a strong desire to pour out her heart and soul today. Starting from the point of "not wanting children", she talked about many life experiences, even including the time when she and Chen Hansheng's father were simple pen pals when they were young.
It was only then that Shen Youchu realized that the scholarly, gentle, and amiable auntie in front of her, whom Chen Hansheng jokingly called "Second Mo's Mother", actually had her own troubles and stories.
… ….
"Time really flies."
When it was almost noon, Mo Er's mother stretched her body, "Auntie, these are all old stories. Youchu, tell me your own story in the afternoon."
Shen Youchu was stunned for a moment. Her life was too simple. It was divided into two parts — "before she met Chen Hansheng" and "after she met Chen Hansheng".
Before she met him, her life was like a black and white television, day after day the same.
After she met him, although she cried, was sad, and still missed him deeply, there were suddenly many colors in her world.
"Is it okay?"
Mo Ke came over and gently pinched Shen Youchu's face.
Shen Youchu was a little surprised. This action was often done by Chen Hansheng. She originally wanted to take a step back, but Mo Ke's eyes were full of kindness. Shen Youchu nodded.
After lunch, the nurse came over to check Shen Youchu's blood pressure and heartbeat. After a while, when everything was calm again, Mo Ke slowly asked Shen Youchu about her childhood.
From the death of her parents, to taking care of her younger sister and mother-in-law, to working part-time in the library and cafeteria when she just entered university …
This experience was undoubtedly tragic. Mo Ke often listened to her story and tears would come out.
Shen Youchu didn't seem to feel anything. She even took out a tissue and passed it to Mo Ke.
Mo Er's mother suddenly understood. Although the young lady in front of her was shy and stuttered, she had the psychological quality to face difficulties calmly.
However, when she talked about university, her life suddenly became happy. Shen Youchu's face would also show a little sweetness from the bottom of her heart.
For example, when she was in university, she didn't know Chen Hansheng well, but Chen Hansheng suddenly paid 50 yuan for her class fee. She was scared and worried at that time.
At the beginning, her application for the scholarship was rejected. After Chen Hansheng helped her get it, she wanted to thank him, but she didn't dare to say it out loud.
There was also the joy of receiving a pink table lamp for the first time at Christmas.
… …
In short, there were many little things in life. Mo Ke didn't expect that so many things actually happened between the ruffian Chen Hansheng and the slow Shen Youchu.
They chatted like this until 5 pm. Mo Ke's impression of Shen Youchu became more and more solid. At this moment, "Ring ring ~", Chen Hansheng called.
Shen Youchu held Little Smart and carefully put it to her ear to answer the call.
Mo Ke looked at her gently. This was a gentle and simple girl who was a little unconfident, but had a bright heart.
Mo Er's mother couldn't help but smile. The more she knew about Shen Youchu, the more she liked her.
"Auntie, I have to leave in a while."
Shen Youchu hung up and said to Little Smart.
"Hansheng is coming to pick you up, right?"
Mo Ke asked reluctantly.
Shen Youchu nodded.
"Yes, auntie will be discharged soon. During the weekend, I will go to Jiangling to visit grandma and little Aning."
Mo Ke blinked and said, "Today's things will be a secret between you and auntie. It will be like we hid the remote control last night."
"Okay ~"
Shen Youchu thought of Chen Hansheng looking for the remote control everywhere, and she pursed her lips and smiled.
… …
However, at 5: 30, Chen Hansheng still hadn't arrived. His nephew and nephew had arrived first.
In the morning, because of Mo Ke's gaze, Liu Xu was terrified for the whole day. In the end, he didn't dare to face her alone and could only ask his cousin and cousin-in-law to be the middleman.
"Auntie."
His nephew, Mo Zheng, greeted them first and glanced at Shen Youchu.
According to his cousin, this girl might be here to fight for favor and inheritance, but Mo Zheng didn't believe it.
The girl was a little shy when she saw strangers. How could she fight for inheritance with this kind of personality? The boy with the temperament yesterday was a possibility.
"Mo Zheng."
Mo Ke said, "In the future, you can go home directly after work. You don't have to come here once a day."
"Auntie, we are worried that you might need something."
Liu Xu quickly said.
"Haha ~"
Mo Ke smiled. This "Haha" sounded a little strange.
The room was a little quiet. Shen Youchu sat on the edge of the bed, and her wrist was held by Mo Ke. Liu Xu kept winking at Mo Zheng. Mo Zheng was thinking about what to say when heavy footsteps came from the corridor.
Shen Youchu's eyes lit up. After living together for a long time, they were very sensitive to each other's footsteps.
Chen Hansheng walked casually, which seemed to be a good match for his unrestrained personality.
"Auntie, I'm here!"
Before the door was even opened, Chen Hansheng's voice could be heard. It was as if she had heard his voice before seeing him.
"This boy ~"
Mo Ke shook her head helplessly. His voice directly livened up the atmosphere in the room.
"Auntie, who is the girl sitting next to you?"
Chen Hansheng walked closer and said casually, "She looks quite pretty. Do you want to introduce her to me as my girlfriend?"
Seeing Chen Hansheng "flirting" with her in public, Shen Youchu pouted and felt embarrassed, but her heart calmed down.
Although Chen Hansheng looked sloppy, in many people's hearts, he was Qiao Feng, who appeared with a loudspeaker.
No matter how chaotic the situation was, with the BGM and the Eighteen Dragon Palms, he could suppress it.
If it didn't work, he could do it again. The Thirty-Six Dragon Palms should work.
"Oh, you guys are here too."
Chen Hansheng greeted Mo Zheng and Liu Xu politely.
Mo Zheng nodded slightly. Liu Xu didn't know how to respond because he thought of a problem.
If this person was here in the morning, would he have the guts to open the thermos?
He thought about it and came to a conclusion. No.
He was afraid of being beaten up.
The scene yesterday when Chen Hansheng came in with the pancake stove was silly, but Liu Xu was sure that this person was capable of anything.
"How could I forget that there was such a hooligan?"
Liu Xu frowned.
However, Liu Xu thought about it silently and felt that there shouldn't be any problems.
First, Chen Hansheng didn't know what happened in the morning.
Second, his aunt was here too. No matter how unreasonable he was, what could he do?
Third, his wife and his cousin's wife added up to four people. They might not be afraid of him.
Fourth, at the end of the day, it was just an explanation. Who would make a fuss over three buns?
Fifth, he couldn't be impulsive next time.
"Huh?"
Chen Hansheng was talking when he suddenly saw the three buns on the table. There were bumps on the outside and there was a hundred yuan under it.
"What happened?"
Chen Hansheng picked it up and looked at it. With his sharp eyes, he could tell that it was caused by the buns falling on the ground. After picking them up, he pulled off the outer layer.
This scoundrel had found out about this.
Liu Xu pretended not to hear it. Mo Zheng didn't know. Shen Youchu looked at Chen Hansheng in a daze, feeling a little wronged.
The ward fell into silence again. In the end, Mo Ke sighed. "Hansheng, I slipped by accident."
Mo Er's mother thought that with Chen Hansheng's temper, if he heard that Liu Xu had deliberately thrown the buns, he would probably get into a fight. Thus, she took the blame herself.
"Oh, it's fine."
Chen Hansheng looked at them and said, "It's just a small matter. Why do you all look so serious?"
"Or …"
Chen Hansheng paused for a second and opened his jacket to reveal the short-sleeved shirt inside. "What are you all hiding from me?"
"Old Chen's son is so smart!"
Mo Ke could only sigh. No wonder he could succeed at such a young age. No wonder Liang Meijuan always talked about him. She seemed to be scolding him but was actually proud of him.
"I touched the buns on the ground."
At this time, Liu Xu turned his head. "I'm just worried that these buns are not clean. It's not hygienic to eat them. The 100 yuan is to compensate you."
He was sure that Chen Hansheng wouldn't do anything in front of Mo Ke. Besides, even if something happened, there were four people on his side.
"F * * k, it's just a small matter. Is it worth 100 yuan?"
Chen Hansheng couldn't help laughing. "Are you looking down on me? I'm very broad-minded. Usually, when there's a conflict, I'll forget about it the next day."
Liu Xu nodded. He was right.
Mo Ke was also relieved. She was really worried that Chen Hansheng and Liu Xu would get into a fight.
"Aunt Mo, don't lie to me."
Chen Hansheng complained. "If you have the time, why don't you go to the nurse's station to register your information? When I came over, I saw all the patients on this floor writing something. It seems that they want to vacate a room."
"Really?"
Mo Ke didn't doubt his words. "There's no nurse's notice."
"Then you go and have a look."
Chen Hansheng waved his hand to Shen Youchu. "You go with your mother. Young people should be more active. Don't just sit there all day."
"Oh."
Shen Youchu was very obedient. She helped Mo Ke walk to the nurse's station. Chen Hansheng was still shouting behind them. "Ask around properly. Don't delay anything."
With that, he locked the ward with a click.
Then, Chen Hansheng took off his jacket, revealing the short sleeves inside. He tilted his head and walked to Liu Xu.
"F * * k, we've been tricked!"
Mo Zheng and Liu Xu finally realized that Chen Hansheng had tricked the important person to leave first.
"Young man, calm down."
Mo Zheng reminded him. "What did you say just now? Usually, a conflict will be forgotten the next day."
"Yes!"
Chen Hansheng grinned. "That's because I've taken my revenge on the spot. I never wait."
"You're still young. Don't be impulsive …"
Mo Zheng still wanted to say something.
Chen Hansheng was annoyed. He swung his arm and pushed the office clerk who had been sitting in the office for a long time.
"Ouch!"
Mo Zheng lost his balance and fell to the ground.
Team combat strength -1.
"Old Mo!"
Mo Zheng's wife rushed over to check on her husband. She ignored her cousin Liu Xu.
Team combat strength -1 again.
Liu Xu was a little nervous. What kind of combat strength did his cousin and cousin-in-law have?
"What are you doing?"
Liu Xu and his wife stared at Chen Hansheng warily.
Chen Hansheng didn't make a move. He walked over and picked up the three buns, pinching them in his hand.
"Fighting doesn't conform to the socialist harmony theory. I've always won people over with virtue."
Chen Hansheng passed the buns over. "It doesn't matter if you don't like them. But you can't throw them away. The fruits of labor aren't worthy of respect. Eat these buns today and we'll call it a day."
Liu Xu looked at the buns and felt disgusted. "I'm not eating them. I've already paid for them anyway."
Chen Hansheng didn't mind. "Dad has many ways to deal with people like you."
He then grabbed Liu Xu and dragged him to the washroom.
Liu Xu was unable to break free. His wife was about to rush forward to stop him when she saw Chen Hansheng raise his finger and point at the air as a warning. "Go away. People like me are capable of doing anything."
"Don't get involved. Go and call Great Aunt and the hospital security."
Mo Zheng shouted from the ground.
"Should we call the police?"
Mo Zheng's wife took out her phone.
"Are you crazy?!"
Mo Zheng stopped her immediately. "Liu Xu is about to become an official employee. If we call the police, he'll lose his future. I think he'll be fine. Chen Hansheng didn't plan to hit him."
"Then, then why did you drag him out of the washroom?"
Mo Zheng's wife asked in a trembling voice. "Are you going to make him eat shit?"
"I think so."
Mo Zheng sighed. "It's fine as long as he doesn't get hurt. Just take it as a lesson."
His cousin's guess was quite accurate. Chen Hansheng lifted the toilet lid and pinned Liu Xu's neck to the side.
"Steamed bun or shit? Choose one. I suggest the latter because you can tell me what it tastes like. I'll go back and verify it with Dai Zhenyou."
… ….
Not long after, Mo Ke and Shen Youchu were called back. They were still looking for where to register. After hearing Liu Xu's wife's explanation, they hurried back to the washroom.
"Hansheng, Hansheng, don't be impulsive."
Mo Ke knocked on the door and shouted.
"Second Mom, don't worry."
Chen Hansheng replied from inside, "We're memorizing ancient poems."
"Memorizing ancient poems?"
Mo Ke was anxious and confused.
At this moment, Mo Zheng, who had been lying on the ground, came over to explain. "Chen Hansheng told Liu Xu to eat a steamed bun and recite 'Compassion for Farmers'."
"What?"
Mo Ke listened again. Indeed, Liu Xu seemed to be eating something and was reciting the poem. "Hoeing crops at noon, sweat dripping on the soil. Who knows that every grain on the plate is hard work …"
Hearing his voice, he shouldn't be injured.
Not long after, the hospital's security arrived. They were waiting for Mo Zheng's instructions. Mo Ke waved her hand weakly. "It's fine. Young people are just fooling around."
Not long after, the door of the washroom was suddenly opened.
Chen Hansheng walked out with a smile. However, Liu Xu's head and face were wet. He was lying on the ground and vomiting.
"Why did you push him into the toilet?"
Mo Zheng asked in surprise. This didn't conform to the rules of the game.
"Yes, I did."
Chen Hansheng shrugged his shoulders. "I only said that if you don't eat the steamed bun, I will push you down. I didn't say that I won't push you down if you eat it. You misunderstood, so why are you blaming me?"
Mo Zheng was speechless.
