Xiao Beiguo was silent for a long time, looking at the dark night, as if he was immersed in the scene of that day.

"Later, my father took me to work. Not long after I started working, I fainted. When I was sent to the hospital, my temperature was already 42 degrees."

"Extremely high fever!" Su Xiaowan exclaimed, looking at Xiao Bei's emotions hidden in the darkness with heartache.

From his face, she saw his sadness and helplessness, and also a moment of anger.

Suddenly, she understood why he felt sorry for Old Man Xiao but didn't care too much about him.

Only after experiencing the darkest despair can a person become calm and sober.

But Xiao Beiguo is still good. At least he won’t really ignore Old Man Xiao. Perhaps, in his heart, he doesn’t want to become Old Man Xiao.

"Well, I was lucky that time. I was sent to the hospital in time and stayed in the hospital for five days."

Xiao Beiguo just briefly mentioned it, but if he had a fever to the point of fainting, it must be very serious.

"Dad has no opinion of his own. The only time he has an opinion of his own is this time. If I argue with him like this, I will be no different from him."

Having said this, he paused for a long time, turned sideways to look at Su Xiaowan, and called out softly.

"Xiao Wan, no matter what happens in the future, for Xixi, let's not get divorced easily, okay?"

"If a child grows up in an incomplete and loveless family, her future life will be terrible."

Xiao Beiguo could understand this the most. If it weren't for her, he might have become Old Man Xiao.

"Well, no matter what, we have to live our lives well. There is nothing we can't solve if we work together."

Su Xiaowan also thought so. For her, if she were to live her life again, she wanted to save Xiao Beiguo and teach Xixi well.

She doesn't care about other things!

Xiao Beiguo buried his head in her neck, his voice choked, "Xiao Wan, thank you."

Although she had argued with him repeatedly about having a son, he could understand.

Now that the two of them have opened their hearts to each other, Su Xiaowan is no longer the same as before, and is even more willing to work hard with him for this family.

Su Xiaowan felt as if her heart was pulled by something. She felt a coolness on her neck and was extremely shocked.

She always felt that Xiao Beiguo was a very deep person, without emotions, but with a terrifyingly strong heart.

At this moment, she deeply realized that he was just holding on and hiding everything in his heart.

The divorce of Old Man Xiao was actually a big blow to him, but he knew that it would be better for them to separate than to stay together.

Early the next morning, Su Xiaowan delivered the goods to the canteen as usual, then went to the market to buy some meat and two chickens.

Xiao Beiguo looked at her and saw that she had spent thirty yuan at once. He couldn't help but ask, "Why did you buy two chickens?"

"Didn't you say that Dad needs to take care of himself? I'll stew this chicken when I get home. We've been busy these days, and the whole family needs to eat something good to replenish themselves, otherwise we won't have the energy to earn money."

Xiao Beiguo was deeply moved, "Xiao Wan, thank you."

He thought she would be reluctant to let him go, but he didn't expect that she would consider him in every way.

"I don't know how many times you've said thank you in the past two days. We're a family, why are you saying all this?"

"Your father is my father. Although he is not very good, he is not bad either. Besides, he has had a hard time. As his children, we can't always be fussy about him."

Xiao Beiguo hummed, his chest swollen and he couldn't say a word.

"Mom, will Grandpa always live in our house from now on? Can Xixi play with Grandpa? Will Grandma be unhappy?"

The little girl blinked her eyes. When Old Man Xiao came yesterday, she played with him.

The old man was happy to accompany Xixi and played hide-and-seek with her, which made her very happy.

"Grandpa will live in our house from now on, and grandma will live in uncle's house. Xixi, you have to help mom take care of grandpa in the future, okay?"

Xixi looked at Su Xiaowan. She didn’t know what care meant, but she knew that grandpa would not leave and would live with them.

Living together, we are a family, and family members should treat him well.

"Okay, Xixi will share the delicious food with grandpa. Xixi likes grandpa, not grandma."

"Then we should go to Grandma's house less often in the future, but Xixi can't say that, okay?"

Su Xiaowan doesn't like Liu Xianglian, but she also doesn't want Xixi to be indoctrinated with the idea of disrespecting the elderly.

If you don't like it, then have less contact with it.

Xiao Beiguo was shocked by Su Xiaowan's words, but he also agreed with them.

You may not like it, but you must show due respect.

After returning home, Su Xiaowan went into the kitchen. Xiao Beiguo took Xixi to see Old Man Xiao, and let Xixi play with the old man while he cleaned the buckets and other things.

At the same time, at the old Xiao's house, Liu Xianglian prepared the porridge and brought it to the table. Xiao Erdan looked at the porridge, pushed the bowl away, and looked gloomy.

"Why don't you eat? I'll give you milk."

Liu Xianglian took a bowl and filled it with batter and placed it in front of Xiao Erdan.

He didn't even look at it, his mouth pouted, "I'm tired of eating noodles every day, I want to eat meat."

"You don't even know how good it is to have porridge, and you want to eat meat. Do you think your grandfather is still in our house?" Li Xiufang said unhappily.

"It's all because of you. Third Aunt's family eats meat every meal. Today I saw her buy two hens, and she bought eggs a few days ago."

"Xixi is a little girl, she eats meat and eggs every day, why can I only eat porridge every day?"

"Well, if you have the guts, go get all the meat and eggs from her house and cook them yourself."

Li Xiufang didn't make a penny from selling jelly these days, and she even lost that one dollar.

Why should she work hard and only Su Xiaowan makes money!

She earns money, but can't she eat something herself?

Xiao Erdan said nothing and looked at Liu Xianglian, as if he wanted to ask her something.

"Your mother is right. If you have the guts, go steal it and eat it yourself. Otherwise, you can only eat porridge."

Xiao Erdan thought about the last time when he was almost drowned by Su Xiaowan, and he was a little afraid, so he could only eat the porridge.

In the evening, Su Xiaowan asked Xiao Beiguo to kill the chicken, and she put some mushrooms in to make soup.

You can smell the rich aroma of chicken from far away.

Xiao Erdan huddled in the firewood pile, stroking his already starving stomach and swallowing his saliva.

"Brother, the food at Third Aunt's house is so delicious. I just saw that the chicken legs are as thick as my arms." Xiao Goudan wanted to eat, but he was very timid.

"What's the use? We can't eat it." Xiao Erdan dug into the pile of firewood.

"Brother, we can't eat this chicken, but there's another one in Aunt San's yard. How about we catch it and eat it ourselves when she goes out tomorrow?"

"That's good, but let me make a deal. I'll go on the stalks and you go catch them."

The two brothers hit it off immediately and quickly got up and left.

In the evening, Xixi sat at the dinner table, looked at the big chicken leg in the bowl, picked it up and handed it to Old Man Xiao.

"Grandpa, this chicken leg is for you. If you eat it, your health will improve."

Old man Xiao burst into tears and gave the chicken leg to the little girl again, "Ni, eat it, Grandpa has some."
