She held Song Yao’s hand and said, “By the way, Han Pei came to look for you today.”
At the mention of Han Pei, Song Yao’s heart ached. “How is she?”
Gu Li frowned. “There are several bruises on her face. She looks like she was beaten up.”
Song Yao sincerely hoped that Han Pei could jump out of the fire pit, but it was useless to persuade her. With Han Pei’s personality, she would not get a divorce in her lifetime.
Gu Li was a kind person. She sighed and said, “If there’s really no other way, bring her home. Our shop happens to be short of people. She can help you when she comes.”
Song Yao nodded. “I’ll go look for her tomorrow and retrieve Baby
Xuan’s household register.”
Speaking of which, Song Yao had been busy cooking for the school and buying appliances a few days ago and had almost forgotten about this. Fortunately, Gu Li had mentioned Han Pei from the Yu Family Village before she remembered.
Yu Xuan’s new household register was extremely important to Song Yao because it meant a new life.
As long as she retrieved Baby Xuan’s household register, everything that happened in the dream would have nothing to do with her and Baby Xuan.
Therefore, the next day, after Song Yao fed Baby Xuan the rice paste, she rushed to the Yu Family Village.
Worried that Song Yao would encounter difficult people on the way, Zuo Huo and Song Xiao followed.
Song Yao went to the office to retrieve the household register. This time, Li En was also there.
Thinking of the last corn planting incident, Li En felt sorry for Song Yao from the bottom of his heart.
“Widow Wang was unreasonable last time. I went to work in the fields that time. I’ll apologize to you first.”
Song Yao really couldn’t bear Li En apologizing to her at his age.
She said, “It’s fine. I have nothing to do with the Yu Family Village in the future. Let the past be the past.”
Unexpectedly, Song Yao was very open-minded. Li En wanted to say something to Song Yao. After all, they used to live in the same village. Unfortunately, when he reacted, Song Yao had already brought Zuo Huo and Yu Xuan to knock on Han Pei’s door.
At that time, Han Pei was still cooking in the kitchen. Beside her, her youngest daughter, Zhaodi, looked at her mother eagerly and occasionally helped her.
Her mother-in-law, Zhang Cui, kicked the door open and entered. “Can’t you hear the loud knocking? Are you deaf?”
“I’m sorry, Mother! I really didn’t hear it just now!” Han Pei covered her face and limped out to open the door. She had been beaten up by her husband and mother-in-law twice a few days ago on the grounds for forgetting to feed the pigs after working in the fields for a day.
Seeing the old injuries on her body that had yet to heal, Han Pei was on the brink of tears.
She was not like Song Yao, who had an awesome, exciting family. Even if she brought her child back, her family could accept her. She was different. If she dared to go back, her aunt would be the first to chase her back!
Ever since she was young, she didn’t know how many times she had been beaten. She only hoped that her daughter, Zhaodi, wouldn’t be like her. It would be best if she found a good in-law and gave her husband a son. At that time, the couple would live a peaceful life.
While she was thinking, Han Pei had already opened the door. When she saw Song Yao and two men standing outside, Han Pei was shocked!
“You… Why are you here?”
Song Yao came in with a smile. “Didn’t you come to look for me yesterday?”
With that, Song Yao entered the courtyard with the two men behind her.
Han Pei was even more frightened. If her mother-in-law saw her bringing the two men in, she would definitely be beaten up once Song Yao left!
“Um… I have something urgent to attend to today. I’ll look for you another day, okay?”
As Han Pei spoke, she pushed Song Yao out of the door until Zhaodi tilted her head and shouted, “Hello, Aunt Song Yao!”
Song Yao pushed Han Pei away and walked up to Zhaodi to touch the braid on her head. “Zhaodi, you’re already so big? My Baby Xuan just learned to speak!”
After saying that, Song Yao took out a white rabbit milk candy from her pocket and handed it to the little girl.
The little girl took the milk candy and ate it with relish. This was the first time she had eaten such good food in her life. In the past, even if there was good food at home, her father and Grandma would eat it first. She and her mother could only eat leftovers that were so cold that they were rotten.
“Thank you, Aunt Song Yao!”
The little girl thanked her sweetly. Song Yao was even happier when she heard that. “No need to thank me. Remember to come to my house with Mom in the future. I still have many such delicious things at home.”
“Really?” The little girl couldn’t stop smiling. If only she and her mother had always stayed at Aunt Song Yao’s house.
Not only did Aunt Song Yao have a lot of delicious food at home, but she didn’t look fierce at all. She wasn’t like Grandma and Dad, who only knew how to hit her and Mom!
At the thought of this, Zhaodi tugged at Song Yao’s sleeve. “Aunt Song
Yao, take me and Mom away..”
