Chapter 82: A Pitiful Look
“I stayed behind to accompany Xue Ling. I only rested in an inn in town for a night, but Xue Ling took everything from me while I slept and ran away alone. She even checked out my room,” Qian Yiyun explained with reddened eyes.
She had to look a bit more pitiful to convince An Jiuyue to let her stay.
“Sister Jiuyue, I don’t have anything now. I haven’t eaten anything today either. I’m so hungry! Sister Jiuyue, can I stay at your house?”
An Jiuyue was silent.
Is Xue Ling crazy? I thought she likes Qian Jiyun? How can she treat his younger sister like that?!!
“Why did she do that? She must have some reason, right?”
Qian Yiyun replied, “I think she wanted Big Brother to stay last night to do something shameful. I said some things to her and told Big Brother to leave first.”
She had thought about many things on the way. The more she thought about it, the more she believed that Xue Ling was vicious for trying to kill her.
She was penniless! How was she supposed to survive in that place after the flood? She could be knocked out and trafficked.
In that case, Xue Ling could say whatever she wanted to her brother. There would be no evidence to prove otherwise.
“Sister Jiuyue, my brother has left. I don’t have anything, and I don’t know when he’ll send someone to fetch me. I’ve thought about it again and again. I can only come to your house. Sister Jiuyue, you won’t chase me out, right?” She pouted, looking pitiful.
An Jiuyue raised her hand and facepalmed, speechless.
What is going on? I don’t want to live under the same roof as Qian Yiyun.
She was still rejoicing that she had finally gotten rid of the Qian family. However, Xue Ling messed around and sent Qian Yiyun back to her.
She could not chase her away now. She was a kind person and could not allow a young, penniless lady to wander alone.
“I’ll boil a pot of warm water for you. Take a shower first. Let’s talk about the rest later,” she said.
Qian Yiyun’s eyes lit up.
She means that I can stay, right?
…
After a while, Qian Yiyun was chased to the shower.
“Mother, is that auntie staying with us?” Rong’er asked softly.
“Yes,” An Jiuyue replied helplessly, “She’ll stay here for a few days. She’ll leave when Uncle Qian comes to pick her up.”
“Will she help us take care of Xiao Zhou and Xiao Xing?” Zheng’er asked.
The boys and their mother had named the two babies Xiao Zhou and Xiao Xing.
Qian Yiyun had told him that she would help to take care of Xiao Zhou and Xiao Xing while staying here as payment for her meals.
An Jiuyue nodded and replied, “She will.”
Besides taking care of the two children, Qian Yiyun could not do anything else.
“Watch over your brothers. I will cook now.”
She rose to her feet and headed to the kitchen.
Since Qian Yiyun was here, she could not retrieve all the food from her space. She had to store some food in the kitchen to prevent any suspicion.
However, it seemed like she had made the right decision previously.
