My Courtyard Refuge

Empathy

The young woman blushed even more when she heard this.

Xu Dong knew that the other party must have misunderstood, so he quickly explained: “Don’t think wrongly, what I mean is, I want to verify whether what you said is true.”

“How do you want to verify?” Song Lin hesitated.

“Of course I went to your house to see the child, otherwise what else can I do?”

“I have a video of my child.” Song Lin hurriedly took out her phone from her pocket.

Xu Dong shook his head: “I only believe in what I see with my own eyes.”

“This……”

“If you don’t want to, forget it.” Xu Dong said indifferently.

Anyway, this matter has nothing to do with him. If he hadn’t remembered Xiaobao from his previous life, he wouldn’t have talked so much nonsense with him.

Seeing Xu Dong turn around to leave, Song Lin grabbed him and immediately made a decision: “Okay, I’ll take you to my house.”

“Follow me, I drove here.” Xu Dong nodded.

Half an hour later, Song Lin led Xu Dong into the house.

“Song Lin, you’re back, this is…” Song Lin’s mother-in-law looked at Xu Dong warily.

“Mom, this is my former colleague, surnamed Xu. Brother Xu heard that the baby is sick, so he stopped by to see the baby.” Song Lin hurriedly introduced.

Xu Dongchong nodded to the other party: “Hello, Auntie!”

“Come in, Chenchen just woke up.”

Song Lin quickly went to the bedroom to carry the child out, Xu Dong stepped forward to look at the baby, the child’s face turned red, it was indeed a fever.

“Brother Xu, do you want to hug the baby?”

Xu Dong nodded, and took the child by chance, maybe it was fate, the little baby actually smiled at Xu Dong.

“Is the baby a boy or a girl? How many?”

“It’s a boy, two and a half years old.”

Xu Dong tested the child’s temperature with the back of his hand, and asked casually, “How long have you had the cold?”

“It’s been almost two weeks, and it’s been up and down, and it’s frustrating.”

“That’s good.” Xu Dong thought for a while and said, “What about the pork, I won’t give it to you.”

===Section 123===

Song Lin said anxiously: “Brother Xu, you…”

Xu Dong interrupted her: “Listen to me, the pork is only half a catty in total, it probably won’t last for two days, and it’s too greasy, it’s not good for children’s stomachs.

How about this, I’ll get five catties of fish over here, fish soup is definitely milder than broth, and it’s more suitable for children to nourish their bodies. ”

“Brother Xu, can you really get fish?” Song Lin looked suspicious.

“What’s the benefit of me lying to you? I’ll give you the child. I’ll go back and get the fish right now.” After Xu Dong finished speaking, he returned the baby to the other party..

“Then drive slowly on the road.” Song Lin looked at Xu Dong anxiously and instructed.

“Aunt Liao, I have to leave for a while.” After greeting Granny Song Lin in the kitchen, Xu Dong turned and left.

As soon as the guests left, Song Lin’s mother-in-law immediately went into a rage: “Song Lin, what’s the matter with this person? My Liang Hao treats you so well, don’t be foolish!”

Chenchen’s little baby was so frightened by grandma’s voice that it started crying, Song Lin hurriedly coaxed her, and managed to coax her well.

Aunt Liao knew she was ashamed, and asked again in a low voice: “Song Lin, tell mom the truth, who is that Xu?”

“Mom, didn’t I tell you, it’s my former colleague…”

The reason why Song Lin chose to lie was because she was afraid of her mother-in-law. The other party was always suspicious, and would trouble her for a long time about anything.

“Don’t fool me with this. Mom has met a lot of people in her life. The two of you must have known each other for less than a month. Mom can tell.”

Song Lin sighed, and simply confessed: “Well, I just met Brother Xu at the grain store. I accidentally heard that there was meat in his grain card, so I wanted to buy the meat.”

“Then why is he coming to our house?” Aunt Liao frowned.

“He thought I was lying and wanted to come and see for himself.”

Aunt Liao looked suspicious: “I’ve seen it now, what about the meat?”

“Brother Xu said that there is too little pork, and he is going to exchange five catties of fish for me. I just went back to get the fish.” Song Lin replied truthfully.

“You didn’t give me the money, did you?” Aunt Liao immediately became nervous. She was almost sure that this person was a liar.

Song Lin smiled wryly and said, “The price hasn’t been discussed yet, so how much?”

“That’s good!” Aunt Liao breathed a sigh of relief, and then reminded: “This Xu man is very calculating. I think he will call you soon, saying that fish meat is very popular, and ask you to transfer money by mobile phone immediately.”

“Mom, stop thinking about it. Although Brother Xu and I have only known each other for a short time, he is definitely not this kind of person.” Song Lin took the initiative to explain.

“Hmph, you know people, face, but not heart. You are still young and know a lot about yarn.”

“Brother Xu doesn’t have my phone number.” Song Lin was really helpless.

Aunt Liao became more vigilant now: “Too bad, this person surnamed Xu knows our address, I have to call the police immediately.”

“Mom, let’s wait a little longer. If Brother Xu is really a liar, it’s not too late for us to call the police.”

Aunt Liao glanced at her precious grandson. Even though she knew the hope was slim, she couldn’t help but feel hopeful.

“Well, we’ll just wait a few hours for him.”

…

It turned out that Xu Dong came back again before an hour had passed.

“Boom boom boom…”

Song Lin was about to open the door, but Aunt Liao was one step ahead of her. She first checked through the cat’s eye, and then called the door slowly.

“Xiao Xu, you’re back.” Looking at the bag in the other’s hand, Aunt Liao became more enthusiastic.

“Thank you, Auntie!”

Song Lin walked over with the child in her arms, and asked tentatively, “Brother Xu, what’s going on?”

“I ran to several places, and finally fulfilled my mission.”

Xu Dong smiled and nodded, then put the bag on the table in the living room.

When Aunt Liao heard this, she hurried forward to check. The fish was cold, but the other party was as serious and careful as touching a lover.

Song Lin looked at the lump of fish, and while she was excited, she couldn’t help asking curiously: “Brother Xu, what kind of fish is this, why is it like this?”

“This is tuna, bluefin tuna.”

Aunt Liao interjected, “Xiao Xu, how much is this fish?”

“I’ll charge you a price. Give me 100,000 yuan. The fish is exactly ten catties.”

Xu Dong thought for a while and said, at the beginning, one catty of fish meat was exchanged for three catties of dried shrimp, which was about 10,000 yuan.

“Thank you, thank you so much, Xiao Xu, I’ll transfer the money to you right now.” The price was much cheaper than expected, Aunt Liao was afraid that Xu Dong would go back on his word, so she transferred 100,000 yuan on the spot.

“Thank you, Brother Xu.” Song Lin was equally grateful.

Xu Dong smiled and shook his head, “Thank you, I am also a parent, and the baby’s health is the most important thing.”

“Xiao Xu, hurry up and sit down, Auntie will make you tea.” Aunt Liao came to her senses suddenly, and immediately greeted this “noble man”.

“I won’t sit down anymore, I still have something to do at home, I’m going back.”

Song Lin couldn’t dissuade her, so she could only add the other party’s wechat message, thinking in her heart that when the child recovered from the cold, she must bring the baby to the door to thank her in person.
