A car accident, our family of three crossed

Chapter 197 Xiaobao is not wrong

After everything was settled, Chen Laoer and his family said goodbye to Mr. Gong, and then they left the dental clinic.

Song Ning said to Hang Shuheng, "You take the father and son and Uncle Zhou back with you. Go pick up Yangyang and Shuisheng first. I'll take my sister-in-law to buy some things, and we'll meet at the house later."

Hang Shuheng nodded and said, "There should be a lot of things to buy. You can leave them at the grocery store. I will ask Shuisheng to drive a bullock cart to pick you up later."

After the deal was made, they started to act separately. Hang Shuheng and others returned to Zhou's house, while Song Ning took Chen Laoer's wife to the grocery store and bought some rice, flour, grain and oil.

After leaving the grocery store, they went into the cloth shop. After entering, Song Ning finally remembered to ask, "Can you sew? Can you make clothes?"

Chen Laoer's wife thought that the new master wanted to see her craftsmanship and wanted her to make new clothes, so she nodded quickly and said, "Yes."

Before she got married, she was also good at embroidery. After getting married, she worked in the fields all day, and her once skillful hands have become rough. She looked at her rough hands and hesitated again, feeling uneasy, "But I'm afraid that my hands will ruin the good material."

Song Ning's eyes swept over her hands and said, "It's okay. Just sew two sets of clothes for your family of three." After she said that, she turned around and chose fabric with the clerk.

"Oh! It's Ms. Hang. What kind of fabric would you like to pick today?" The clerk recognized Song Ning. She always bought a lot of things every time she came, so she was considered a big customer of their shop.

Song Ning looked around, turned around and said, "Come and take a look, which pattern do you like?"

Chen Laoer's wife was in a daze for a long time before she was sure that her master did not want to see her craftsmanship, but wanted to buy clothes for their family. She said in panic, "No, no, madam, you don't have to buy clothes for us. We have enough clothes to wear."

Seeing her like that, Song Ning didn't plan to ask her to choose the fabric. He just pointed out a few patterns at random and asked the clerk to cut them, both coarse and fine cotton.

When they paid the bill, the waiter gave them some rags. Song Ning asked the waiter to wrap them up and stuffed them into Chen Laoer's wife's arms. After taking the things to the grocery store for storage, they went to the vegetable market again and bought some meat and vegetables.

When he returned to the grocery store, Shuisheng's oxcart was already waiting outside the store, along with Chen Laoer. Chen Laoer was indeed a good worker, and he didn't even need Shuisheng's help. He only took two trips to load all the goods onto the oxcart.

When they returned to the house, Chen Laoer's son was already playing with Yangyang Mudun, chasing each other in the yard.

Chen Xiaobao was running in front. When he saw the hostess coming back with his parents, he stopped suddenly. Yangyang, who was chasing him, couldn't stop and bumped into him directly. The two children fell into a ball.

Chen Laoer and his wife were horrified. They had just arrived and the young master had fallen. What if the new master was unhappy and wanted to send them away? Just as they were about to help the young master up, he had already climbed up by himself, patted the dust off his body, and threw himself into the arms of the hostess.

"Mom, you're back."

"Hey, what are you playing?"

"We are playing a game of cat and mouse. I am the cat, and Brother Mudun and Brother Xiaobao are the mice."

The mother and son were still being affectionate with each other, but unexpectedly, Chen Laoer and his wife brought Xiaobao and knelt in front of them, which scared both mother and son.

"Madam, madam, Xiaobao doesn't know the rules, please don't blame him, we will definitely discipline him later."

Seeing them like this, Song Ning couldn't help but feel a headache, "Why are you kneeling down again? Get up!"

"Yes! Why are you kneeling?" Yang Yang asked confusedly.

"It is only natural for a servant to kneel before his master." Chen Laoer and his family still did not dare to stand up.

Song Ning was helpless. They had been exploited for many years in that family. Humiliation had been engraved in their bones and it would be difficult to change it in a short time.

"Xiaobao, let me ask you, did you push Yangyang and make him fall on purpose just now?" Song Ning asked gently.

Chen Xiaobao shook his head. He didn't, but he didn't say it because he felt it was useless to say it. When he was in the village, whenever his brothers and sisters got into trouble, his grandmother would say it was his fault.

Song Ning smiled and said, "Since Xiaobao didn't push it on purpose, it's not Xiaobao's fault."

Chen Xiaobao was ready to be punished, but unexpectedly he heard the heavenly voice of the hostess. He raised his head suddenly, and his pair of black and white eyes were unusually bright.

Song Ning continued, "I saw it clearly. It was Yangyang who bumped into Xiaobao, and that's why both of them fell down."

Yangyang nodded his head at the side, "Yeah, yeah, yeah, I fell because I bumped into Brother Xiaobao. Brother Xiaobao, I'm sorry."

"Go and help Brother Xiaobao up!" Song Ning patted Yangyang.

Yangyang got the signal and ran over to help Chen Xiaobao up, but found that the other party was lowering his head and secretly wiping tears. He looked back at his mother at a loss.

Hang Shuheng came out of the inner courtyard and saw this scene. He was a little confused, "What happened?"

Song Ning looked at him helplessly and sighed, "Get up, move your things in and put them in order, and come to the main room when you are done. I have something to say."

"Yes, ma'am."

Chen Laoer and his wife felt much more relaxed now that they had some work to do. After taking the items off the ox cart and putting them in order, they did not dare to delay and took their children to wait outside the main hall of the inner courtyard.

"come in!"

Only after getting the master's consent did they dare to step into the hall. Hang Shuheng and Song Ning sat on the main seats on the left and right. After they came in, they said, "Don't be nervous. Our family doesn't have the rules of those big families. You don't have to be so restrained here."

"Now, tell me your situation again."

Below, Chen Laoer and his wife looked at each other quietly, and Chen Laoer stood up and said, "Sir, Madam, my family is originally from Tianan Village, Liukou Town. My surname is Chen, and I am the second child in the family. Everyone calls me Chen Laoer. I heard from Manager Gong that after signing the contract to sell myself, I can no longer use my original surname. I also need you to give me a name."

"I have no intention of asking you to change your surname. You can keep the same name as before!" Song Ning accepted their grateful gazes and continued, "You all know the situation of this house. You and your family can live here temporarily. We will leave soon. Your main task is to take care of the house."

"We won't be living here for long, but the house needs someone to take care of it. You two should discuss the house's affairs in the future. If you need anything or have any requests, just let us know. As long as it's reasonable, we will try our best to meet your needs."
