Susie thought in her heart that this young woman was probably not Zhu Bihua, and nowadays very few married daughters live in her natal family.

Just as she was thinking about it, the half-closed door of the main room opened, and a young girl came out of the room with exhaustion written on her face. She looked at Susie and said hesitantly, "Are you looking for me?"

Susie nodded, looked past Zhu Bihua, and saw an old woman lying on the bed in the room.

The old woman had gray hair and was looking at her outside. Susie felt that the old woman was Zhu Zhicheng's mother whom she had met before, but she was much older than the one she met a few years ago.

Su Qian signaled Ye Ying to pass the brown sugar pastry, and then whispered: "I'm your brother's friend, can you find a quiet place to say a few words?"

Zhu Bihua raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Wait a minute, I'll tell my mother."

She carried her things into the room, then put them down, and said to He Lamei who was on the bed, "Mom, someone is looking for me, I'll go out for a while."

He Lamei opened her mouth and scolded, "Where are you going? You know how to run out all day long. I can't leave people here. What will I do if you run away?"

Zhu Bihua whispered: "Mom, I'll just talk to people outside, and I won't run away. If someone brings something over, I can't ignore him."

She just changed her mother's diaper and fed her breakfast, so she's actually fine right now.

He Lamei refused, "Damn girl, stop coaxing me, I know you're just impatient to serve me, and you're going to run away using the excuse that someone is looking for you!"

"Things without conscience, my old lady gave birth to you in vain—"

Before he finished speaking, there was a sharp shout from the room on the right: "Is there an end? Every day is noisy! It's so noisy!"

"Things that are old and never die, mourn every day, die and never die, die early and live early!"

Zhu Bihua blushed, looked towards the room on the right, seemed to want to say something, then lowered her head again.

In the room, He Lamei was lying on the bed and yelling, "Little cousin, you died early, get out of my house as soon as possible!"

At this time, an old man came in with a vegetable basket, and Zhu Bihua ran over to take the vegetable basket in his hand as if seeing a savior, "Dad, my friend and I have something to do, I will go out and talk to her, immediately Just come back."

Susie recognized that this was Zhu Zhicheng's father, but after a few years, he also looked much older.

He didn't seem to hear He Lamei's cursing voice in the room, he walked in with tired steps, raised his eyes to look at Susie and Ye Ying, then lowered his eyelids, obviously he didn't recognize Susie.

He waved his hand weakly: "Go."

Zhu Bihua hurriedly put the vegetable basket in the kitchen, and then said to Su Qian, "Let's go."

Su Xi and Zhu Bihua turned around to go out, when they saw Li Xiaoling standing in the yard blankly.

She glanced at Li Xiaoling with a half-smile, and then walked forward.

Li Xiaoling looked at Su Qian's back, wanted to curse but didn't dare to, a mouthful of old blood was stuck in her throat.

At this moment, a young man's voice came from the room on the left, "Damn, it's so noisy living here, every day it's either adults arguing or children crying."

Then Xu Hao came out of the house, yawning, "When the lease expires, I will live in another place. If I live here again, my life will be short for a few years!"

Li Xiaoling didn't make a sound.

Xu Hao continued: "I want fried dough sticks with soy milk, you can buy them for me."

Li Xiaoling was full of anger and said angrily: "If you want to eat, you can buy it yourself, it's not like you don't have money!"

Then he went into the house.

Xu Hao cursed something, went back to the room and took out the toothbrush cup to brush his teeth.

At this moment, Susie and Zhu Bihua had reached a relatively wide area in the alley, Susie said straight to the point: "I am your brother's friend, and I was entrusted by him to find you."

Zhu Bihua became excited, "Where is my elder brother, is he okay?"

"When I asked my parents, they didn't tell me where my elder brother went. They just said that he would die as my elder brother." Zhu Bihua began to cry as he spoke.

Susie quickly took out a handkerchief and handed it over, "Your elder brother is fine, live well, don't cry."

Zhu Bihua didn't take Susie's handkerchief, she wiped her tears with the back of her hand, "Where is he? Why didn't he come back by himself?"

Susie looked at Zhu Bihua, and said softly, "He's busy with work, so he doesn't have time to come back."

"Besides, do you think your parents welcome your eldest brother home?"

Zhu Bihua bowed her head and remained silent, she knew how partial her parents were, they only had the second brother in their hearts, and they regarded the second brother as a treasure.

Susie couldn't help asking: "What happened to your mother? When I saw her before, she was fine."

Zhu Bihua smiled wryly, "Half a year ago I had a stroke, and my body was paralyzed. Now I can only lie on the bed, and I have to wait for people to defecate and urinate."

"Usually my dad takes care of me when I go to school. Now that I'm on vacation, it's me who takes care of me."

Susie frowned, "What about your second brother, he doesn't care?"

Zhu Bihua shook his head, "After my mother had a stroke, my second brother went to the hospital, and then he disappeared, and he didn't take money to treat my mother. What's more, after my mother was discharged from the hospital, I forced my parents to divide up. Home, now the two houses on the east side are assigned to the second brother."

"Now they fire alone and don't eat with my parents."

She looked sad, "Now my dad has a little retirement salary, and my mom doesn't have a unit. She can't be reimbursed for her hospitalization and medication. Now my mom doesn't have enough money for her medicine. My mom was hospitalized before, and the family still owes a lot of debt."

"Now my mother and my father can only live in the main room and rent out two rooms. Finally, we can get some rent subsidies to live."

Susie raised her eyebrows in surprise, "I seem to have heard that your parents plan to let your second brother take care of him. Why did they separate? He doesn't care about your parents?"

Zhu Bihua gave another wry smile, "He wants to separate because he doesn't want to care about it. Until now, my mother is still obsessed with it, saying that the second brother is filial, and it's the second sister-in-law who is instigating him, and makes trouble with the second sister-in-law every day."

"It's only been two months since my second sister-in-law gave birth to a baby. Every day at home, the baby cries and the grown-ups make trouble, and the chickens fly like dogs."

She shook her head, "If it wasn't for my own mother, I really wouldn't even want to go back to this home."

Susie looked at Zhu Bihua, feeling a little sympathetic to the girl, "Are you going to college now?"

Zhu Bihua said: "It's my sophomore year, I'm in junior college, and I still have one year left to graduate."

Susie nodded and didn't say anything else, but said, "Can you tell me the address of your school? Your eldest brother asked me to contact you."

Ye Ying next to him quickly took out a small notebook and a pen, and looked at Zhu Bihua seriously.

Zhu Bihua quickly said the address of the school.

Su Qian thought for a while, then took out 500 yuan from her bag and handed it to Zhu Bihua, "This is what your brother asked me to bring to you."

"Keep the flowers for yourself. If you want to subsidize the family, don't give too much money all at once, as long as it can ensure that your parents can live and take medicine."

In fact, Zhu Zhicheng didn't ask Su Xi to bring money back, but with the current situation of the Zhu family, no matter how chilling Zhu Zhicheng was to his parents, he would definitely help the family financially if he found out.
