Chapter 348: Chapter 347: Knowing One’s Mistake and Being Able to Correct It Are Two Different Things

Wang Hong greeted outside the door and then pushed it open to enter. Seeing one adult and two kids inside, she frowned and complained, "I was only gone for one day, how come so much happened?"

On her way back, she ran into Aunt Li and Aunt Zhao. From the commotion caused by Sie Yufei in the morning to hearing about the two kids being kidnapped, she even suspected that she hadn’t been away for just a day, but for a year.

Lin Nianhe rubbed her hands and asked, "Aunt Wang, you came back just in time. How about we go beat up Sie Yufei again?"

Wang Hong: "..."

If Lin Nianhe hadn’t mentioned it, she was actually planning to go kick Sie Yufei a couple of times later.

But seeing Lin Nianhe’s bright little eyes, she instantly dismissed the thought.

"You better drop it, stop causing trouble."

She could control herself to a degree, but Lin Nianhe? She was afraid that girl might get heated and directly grab a kitchen knife to chop up Sie Yufei.

Wang Hong stepped onto the heated brick bed, glanced at Niuwa, frowned slightly, then looked at Zheng Shan and frowned even more tightly.

Wang Hong casually hugged Zheng Shan into her arms and softly consoled her in a low voice, "Patting the fur won’t scare you, patting the ear will scare you for a while..."

Zheng Shan’s autism wasn’t a one or two-day affair. She had always been ignoring the outside world, not looking, not listening, not knowing; whatever you do with me is fine.

So she obediently leaned against Wang Hong without struggling or giving any opinion.

After Wang Hong muttered the nursery rhyme once, she then said to Zheng Shan, "Girl, come stay at my house tonight, Auntie will hug you to sleep."

Both Zheng Shan and Lin Nianhe were baffled, they lifted their heads in unison, their eyes full of confusion as they looked at Wang Hong.

Lin Nianhe was startled because she hadn’t expected Wang Hong to take up the issue again, especially since she already had Sun Yafei staying at her place, and Zheng Shan was even younger. If she stayed there, they really couldn’t tell for how long.

Zheng Shan’s confusion was much simpler; the little girl just didn’t understand why everyone wanted to sleep with her today...

Not getting a response, Wang Hong suspiciously looked at the two dazed girls, "What’s the matter with you two?"

Lin Nianhe snapped back to reality and hurriedly said, "Aunt Wang, I was just telling Shanshan that I would sleep with her tonight."

"You?" Wang Hong sized up Lin Nianhe for a while and laughed, "You better drop it. You’re still a kid yourself, can you take care of her properly? Looking after kids isn’t as simple as you think, give it three days and you’ll be tired and sick.... Besides, if this girl gets used to sleeping with you and you suddenly go back to the city one day, what will she do?"

Lin Nianhe was somewhat speechless, only able to say tactfully, "Aunt Wang, your house is out of space, isn’t it?"

"What do you mean no space? I can sleep with Shanshan and Lele. How much space can her little arms and legs possibly take up?" Wang Hong said nonchalantly, "You were born in good times. Back in the day when times were tough, five or six people shared one bed without any issues."

Lin Nianhe was left speechless.

When she wanted to trick people, it seemed like she had divine assistance, but when trying to do a good deed to relieve someone’s worries, she always faced obstacles.

She was used to it now.

Lin Nianhe looked at Zheng Shan, "Shanshan, do you want to sleep with me or go to Aunt Wang’s house?"

Zheng Shan blinked, not reacting for a long time.

Speaking from her heart, she certainly wanted to be with Lin Nianhe. They were more familiar with each other, and she always subconsciously wanted to be close to Lin Nianhe.

But she understood what Wang Hong said. It seemed that sleeping with Sister Lin would be troublesome for her...

Zheng Shan slowly stretched out her little hand and clutched onto Wang Hong’s sleeve.

That was her choice.

Lin Nianhe saw her expression and understood a bit. She leaned over, tugged on her braids, and whispered, "It’s okay, Shanshan, I like sleeping with you. Just tell me what you think, alright?"

Wang Hong wanted to say something, seeing Lin Nianhe earnestly discussing and letting her make her own choice, she swallowed back what she was about to say.

Zheng Shan opened her mouth, but in the end, she didn’t make a sound, continuing to hold onto Wang Hong’s sleeve.

Lin Nianhe sighed helplessly and pinched her cheek, saying, "Alright then, whenever you want to go back to Uncle Guan’s house, or sleep over with me, just tell us directly, okay?"

Zheng Shan looked into her eyes and nodded.

Wang Hong let out a sigh of relief, hugged Zheng Shan, and patted her back twice, "Come home with auntie, let your Sister Huanhuan play with you. You’ll have some company at my place."

After Wang Hong cajoled Zheng Shan for a bit, she looked up at Lin Nianhe, "Girl, come out, I have a few words to say to you."

As soon as Lin Nianhe heard Wang Hong asking her to come out, her body instinctively began to back away.

The last time Aunt Wang sought her out for a private talk, she lectured her with a bunch of dating rules. What now? To reiterate it all over again?

Wang Hong didn’t give Lin Nianhe any chance to reject, grabbed Lin Nianhe’s wrist quickly and firmly, and dragged her out the door.

Lin Nianhe clung to the door frame, her little face crumpled up like a bitter gourd, "Aunt Wang, there’s nothing that can’t be said in front of others, why do you need to hide from the children?"

Wang Hong pulled hard, "Get out here!"

Lin Nianhe’s hand slipped, and she stumbled out of the house.

Wang Hong stood in the courtyard, hands on her hips, frowning at Lin Nianhe.

Lin Nianhe rubbed her arms, all defensive, "Aunt Wang, what on earth do you want to say?"

"Ahem," Wang Hong cleared her throat sternly and peered at her, "I heard, Xiao Su is assigned to stay here for a long time?"

Lin Nianhe: "..."

From the time she separated from Aunt Li and Aunt Zhao to the moment Aunt Wang entered, it hadn’t even been a few minutes. How fast did they gossip to Aunt Wang?

Seeing Lin Nianhe not speaking, Wang Hong poked her forehead, "Do you still remember what I told you?"

Lin Nianhe nodded vigorously like a pecking chicken, "I know, I know! I wouldn’t dare forget even in my dreams!"

"That’s good." Wang Hong nodded, satisfied, not wanting to nag about the same demands again, she changed the subject, "You don’t need to worry about Shanshan. I’ve raised three daughters; I know how to handle her."

"Ah?"

Lin Nianhe was taken aback by how quickly Wang Hong switched topics and was momentarily unable to follow.

Wang Hong gave her a stern look and chastised, "Look at you, young age, but you worry too much. With so many women in the village, it’s not your turn to take care of children."

"And what’s with your head? How can you just go looking for people on your own? Don’t you know to give a heads-up? It’s only because the Public Security officers arrived in time, otherwise... think about it, you, with your looks, would sell even better than two little bastards, right?"

"You’re just too burdened with concerns, keeping everything to yourself; what, are you made of iron? Can you shoulder everything alone?"

Lin Nianhe was being scolded, but the corners of her mouth involuntarily curved upwards.

Wang Hong: "Happy? You still have the nerve to smile? Looking for a spanking, are you?"

Lin Nianhe’s smiling face dropped in an instant, pouting a little mouth with a guilty look, "Aunt Wang, I am wrong."

"Quick to admit fault, but never seen you change!"

Wang Hong scowled and poked Lin Nianhe’s forehead again, making her head wobble back and forth.
