Chapter 299: Chapter 299: Familiar Faces to Meet
Liu Zhi’er shook her head, and it took a while for her to squeeze out a sentence: “You don’t understand…”
“How do I not understand? I’m not a kid anymore, Second Sister, do you still think of me as the old Liu Sisi?”
Liu Sisi was also a little bit angry.
“You say it so easily, but what about the three children? What are they going to do? I…I’m their mom!”
Liu Zhi’er suddenly stopped talking, biting her lip hard. After saying that, she turned her face inwards and closed her eyes to sleep.
Liu Sisi opened her mouth wide, her momentum deflated all of a sudden.
Suddenly, she remembered her past when she wanted to divorce Di Yelei, and the heartbreaking past when she saw YingEr crying.
YingEr wasn’t even her biological child, and she was so reluctant to let go of both.
If Second Sister really did get divorced, according to the customs here, she might not be able to take the children away with her. How sad she must be…
For a moment, she couldn’t say anything more.
Before going to bed that night, Liu Sisi carefully checked on Ah-Huang who was lazily lying by the brazier.
Zhang Peng had never treated an animal before, and he could only roughly judge that Ah-Huang had suffered a head injury.
“There’s no need for special treatment. Since it woke up, it means it has passed the most difficult hurdle. It’s said that cats have nine lives and dogs have seven lives. Just let it recover on its own, give it some more refined food, and it should be fine.”
At this moment, Ah-Huang was lying on its side in the temporary nest prepared for it. If it weren’t for the occasional blinking of its eyes and the rising and falling of its chest, Liu Sisi would have doubted whether it was still alive.
Di Yelei also came over, standing by her side, watching her carefully stroke Ah-Huang’s fur and gently pat its back.
“Don’t worry, Ah-Huang will be fine.”
Di Yelei’s words were very low.
“Mmm, I know. I just…I miss Ah-Hua.” Liu Sisi buried her head, still stroking Ah-Huang’s fur, not lifting her head.
Perhaps hearing the name Ah-Hua, Ah-Huang quickly raised its head, searching for something around it. Only a moment later, it lay down again, closing its eyes and not moving.
“Ah-Huang is also grieving…”
“Mmm, I can see that. It grew up with Ah-Hua after all.” Di Yelei sighed.
Ah-Huang moved its ears but didn’t get up to search this time.
It probably understood that Ah-Hua was not coming back.
For a while, the husband and wife quietly stroked Ah-Huang. Di Yelei then said softly:
“When we were eating earlier, Uncle Land Officer spoke. The gist of what he said was that he wanted you to talk to Second Sister, telling her that since Old Man Li is dead, the best thing to do is to let the matter go. After all, no matter how you look at it, this is not a glorious affair.”
Liu Sisi remained silent. She was not interested in this topic and casually kicked the issue away.
“I can’t make decisions for my Second Sister, and I’ve never heard of a younger sister making decisions for her elder sister. Let’s wait until after some time, when Second Sister’s injuries are healed before we talk about it.”
“Mmm! That’s what I told Uncle Land Officer too! Let’s wait for Second Sister to decide on her own.” Di Yelei agreed.
Liu Sisi didn’t say anything more, just watching Ah-Huang silently fall asleep.
“Come on! Letting Ah-Huang get some sleep will definitely make it feel better.” Di Yelei gently pulled Liu Sisi’s hand.
Liu Sisi didn’t refuse, she got up and scooped some water to clean her hands, “How’s your injury? Have you taken any medicine?”
“Mmm, I’ve taken it.”
“You still laugh! Don’t you ever think of me and the children?”
Looking at Di Yelei, who didn’t seem to care at all, a bitter feeling spread in Liu Sisi’s eyes.
