Chapter 229 I really miss her tonight
As for making formula for the kids, they can just be shameless and borrow some hot water from the neighbor.
Pan Xiaohua thought there was no problem with that.
Lately, household expenses have been high, so every penny saved counts.
They won't sell you half a can of gas. A whole can is indeed expensive, and you'll be gone in a few days, so buying a whole can is really not worth it.
But yesterday, after they came out of the courthouse, the older brother said he would stay here and not leave, but he still refused to buy gas. So, is he going to leave or not?
Looking back now, something definitely didn't seem right.
Because last night he made her return the kettle.
Just as they were about to use the kettle, they asked her to return it.
Can't we wait until we leave to return it?
Pan Xiaohua looked up and, connecting the dots, guessed most of the truth.
Why did my brother insist on going upstairs to borrow hot water in the middle of the night?
Even if Fu Huaiyi across the hall isn't home, or even if he doesn't lend them the money, there are plenty of other neighbors downstairs they can borrow from.
He specifically chose the upstairs apartment because the girl there lived alone, and she was Fu Huaiyi's girlfriend.
No wonder... no wonder Fu Huaiyi caught him red-handed and sent him to the police station.
Pan Xiaohua sneered and went back without saying a word.
Huang Chun stopped crying and shouted into the house, "Xiao Hua, hey, Xiao Hua, are you going to do anything about your brother's affairs?"
"I can't control it."
"We can't just let it go like this. It's so cold, and your older brother is still in the police station."
No matter what she said, Pan Xiaohua simply ignored her.
The downstairs neighbors also heard most of what happened. Apparently, their husband went to get hot water and ended up being taken to the police station.
The downstairs neighbors knew about their borrowing of hot water, because they had also borrowed it before.
They've already given their reasons; they're leaving in a couple of days, and it's not worth buying another gas cylinder.
Adults, just bear with it. You can survive by buying steamed buns and porridge downstairs.
The baby needs to be given formula with hot water.
The neighbors are all nice people; they lend hot water to whoever they ask for.
How did that young man upstairs end up taking him to the police station?
"Huang Chun'er, could there be some misunderstanding?"
"Yes, did you ask the young man upstairs if it was a misunderstanding?"
Huang Chun wiped away her tears and said, "I don't know."
She looked up and glanced up, then changed the subject, saying, "Wait a minute, Miss Lin lives upstairs. I didn't see Miss Lin, so how come he's at her place and even took my husband to the police station? Could it be... that my husband accidentally stumbled upon something, saw something he shouldn't have, and so..."
She deliberately led the conversation that way.
You have to understand that in this day and age, even if you're in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, if you have premarital sex and accidentally have a child, you'll be bombarded with criticism and gossip.
With her guidance, the expressions on the faces of those watching the spectacle downstairs were quite interesting.
“I remember they were dating. I ran into them having breakfast together downstairs a few days ago.”
"Even if you're dating, you can't live together, especially since they're not married yet."
"That makes sense. It probably came from something when he went to borrow water."
Everyone sighed.
Lin Yuyao had been eavesdropping behind the door; she hadn't originally planned to come out.
Hearing Huang Chun spout nonsense that insulted her reputation, she had no choice but to stand up for herself.
Lin Yuyao opened the door directly and stared at Huang Chun, asking, "What did you see?"
what?
Huang Chun's eyes widened. "You... how did you get out from across the hall?"
"Hmm, is there a problem with me coming from across the hall?"
“Then…” She looked upstairs, then at Lin Yuyao at the door across the street.
"Fu Huaiyi lives upstairs?"
"Yes, I switched houses with him, it's been several days now, didn't you know?"
"Can... can this house be exchanged so easily?"
Lin Yuyao glanced at her indifferently, then looked at the crowd of onlookers and said, "It rained a few days ago, and the upstairs was leaking a bit, so it was quite cold. He offered to switch with me because he felt sorry for me."
The person who had been making wild guesses while watching the commotion laughed awkwardly after hearing Lin Yuyao's explanation and said, "Oh, I see. Your boyfriend is quite considerate. It is colder on the top floor, but men aren't afraid of the cold. It's right to have him switch with you."
Seeing that he had failed to throw mud at Huang Chun, he shut his mouth.
"Huang Chun, you should ask around first before you speak, don't just make wild guesses."
Huang Chun nodded in agreement. "Auntie, you're right. I'm afraid I won't be able to ask today. I'll have to go to the police station early tomorrow to ask."
"Yes, it's the middle of the night, everyone should go back to sleep."
"Alright, everyone, go home and get some sleep."
Huang Chun looked at Lin Yuyao, forced a smile that looked more like a grimace, and went back.
Lin Yuyao didn't say anything more and went back to sleep.
It's so cold outside, it's so warm inside the blankets. Soon everyone dispersed.
The Pan family across the street are probably having trouble sleeping.
The old woman couldn't be saved, and then Pan Yi went in again.
A woman is left with two children; what are they going to do?
"Little Flower, what do you think we should do?"
Pan Xiaohua said angrily, "I asked you but you wouldn't tell me, and you still have the nerve to ask me what to do?"
"I..." Huang Chun's eyes darted away, "I really don't know, this matter... you'll have to ask your older brother."
"Then let's ask my brother first. Go to sleep now, we can talk about it tomorrow."
sleep?
How could she possibly sleep?
"Oh dear, I'm so unlucky to have run into your family."
Pan Xiaohua poked her head out from under the covers. "You think you're so unlucky? I'm the one who's unlucky. How did I end up being born into the Pan family and meeting a whole family like yours, not a single one of you is reliable?"
Huang Chun: "..."
Across from her, Lin Yuyao had just warmed up in bed when she heard the door open.
She immediately took the gun out from under her pillow.
Then, Fu Huaiyi entered the bedroom.
Lin Yuyao breathed a sigh of relief and put the gun back under her pillow.
"Why are you here?" She pulled the blanket tighter around herself and said, "How come you still have the key? You scoundrel."
He pulled up a stool and sat on the edge of the bed, looked at her for a long time, and then waved to her.
It's like the gesture of calling a puppy.
Lin Yuyao really wanted to kick him out.
What were those neighbors saying just now?
She didn't believe he hadn't heard her.
They actually came back.
Do you want to be criticized and denounced?
She mentally complained for a long time, but still reached out her hand to him.
The moment I touched his hand, he used it to pull me out of bed.
A chill ran through her, and she couldn't help but shiver.
The next second, he wrapped her in his coat again.
Wearing only an undergarment, dressed so thinly, I could almost feel the unfamiliar warmth emanating from the skin pressed against mine, and hear the powerful heartbeat.
Lin Yuyao's heart also raced, but she let him hold her.
I wondered if something had happened to him that led him to do something so outrageous.
It's just... pretty cold.
Lin Yuyao shrank back, pulling the exposed part of her calf inside his coat, and asked him in a low voice, "What happened? What did that Pan Yi do that got him arrested?"
