Shui Bingyue happily accepted the compliment from her second brother, and then asked about Li Xinxin's situation: "Second brother, my second sister-in-law still has to go to work now. It's so hard."
"I persuaded her, and she said it's okay. If she feels uncomfortable, she will rest. Let's go to the cafeteria to eat together at noon. There is braised pork today."
Shui Jianjun asked his second brother: "Don't you have any ingredients at home?"
"We now eat in the canteen every day and eat at home during breaks, so we don't have much food at home."
Soon it was noon, and Li Xinxin came back. She was very happy to see Shui Jianjun and Shui Bingyue at home.
"Jianjun, Bingyue, you are here. I haven't seen Bingyue since I came back from the New Year, and you have grown a lot taller. You are dressed very nicely today, like a little princess."
Li Xinxin likes this sister-in-law very much. After all, when she is at home during the Chinese New Year, the little girl takes care of her everywhere.
It was also because of the little girl's reminder that she and Jian Dang paid special attention so that the baby in their belly could be healthy.
Shui Bingyue smiled slightly: "My third brother combed my hair. I can only tie it into a small braid."
"Let's go have lunch together. There is something delicious today." Li Xinxin invited warmly.
Shui Jianjun saw that his second brother and his wife really planned to eat in the cafeteria, so he didn't plan to leave his sister here.
The two of them finished their lunch here, chatted with the second brother and second sister-in-law for a while, and then left.
On the way back, Shui Jianjun said to Shui Bingyue: "Seeing the second brother and second sister-in-law living like this, I feel that it is really not easy for women to get pregnant. They have to work with such a big belly."
"It was more difficult for my mother back then. Fortunately, my grandma was with her. Otherwise, brothers would be born one after another, which would be really scary."
Hearing what his sister said, Shui Jianjun nodded: "So, there are many children in the family, and life was really difficult when I was a child. I saw several younger brothers, including yours."
The two arrived home soon. Shui Jianjun and Shui Bingyue discussed: "I'm going to fly to Shanghai tomorrow. Do you want to go with me? It's beautiful there."
"I don't want to go. I have ingredients at home, so I can just stay home alone. You'll be back in the afternoon anyway."
"But I don't worry about you alone."
Shui Bingyue shook her head: "Don't worry, I'm very powerful. Have you forgotten that I am a strong man? And I haven't read a book for several days. Learning is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. I have to study hard and can't play around. ."
When Shui Jianjun saw his sister saying this, he had to remind her again and again: "Then don't open the door to strangers. I usually don't have anyone here."
"Don't worry, I can even kill a wild boar. Most people are no match for me."
After the two had dinner, Shui Jianjun boiled hot water for his sister and asked her to take a bath. In summer, if you go out for a lap, you can only sleep more comfortably after taking a shower.
The next day soon came. After Shui Jianjun and Shui Bingyue had breakfast together, he went to work at the airport.
The little girl took out the mechanical encyclopedia from her luggage bag and read the book carefully. Near noon, I heard a knock on the door outside.
She walked behind the door without making a sound. A normal acquaintance would knock on the door and call out. Those who remain silent are mostly strangers.
Shui Bingyue heard a man and a woman discussing in low voices. The woman said: "There is only one little girl in the house now. I have been observing for two days. The male owner of the house went out this morning."
The man replied: "Then why is no one opening the door? Aren't children easy to trick? Could it be that they are asleep?"
"It's possible. Most people have the habit of taking naps during the summer. You can climb over the wall and open the door, and we can sneak the little girl out together."
"Okay, just wait and watch someone for me."
Shui Bingyue took off the bamboo pole from the clothes drying rack in the yard, held it in her hand, and stared at the wall to see where the man would turn over.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the man climbed over the courtyard wall, he saw a little girl looking at him in the courtyard. She was startled and fell directly to the outside of the courtyard wall.
There was a very loud bang. The neighbors thought something had exploded, so they quickly went out to take a look.
I found a strange man lying in front of Shui Jianjun's house and a strange woman standing there. He immediately asked, "What do you do?"
"We were just passing by and accidentally fell."
The trafficker had just finished speaking. Shui Bingyue opened the door, ran behind a burly uncle with a bamboo pole in his arms, and complained.
"Uncle, they lied. I heard it all. They want to take me away and sell me. They are human traffickers and we cannot let them escape."
When the female dealer heard what Shui Bingyue said, she wanted to run away, but was blocked by other neighbors.
Both traffickers were under control and everyone sent them to the police station together. The burly uncle asked Bingyue: "Do you want to go to my house for a while and wait for your brother to come back?"
"No, thank you uncle, I can do it myself."
A group of neighbors walked back with the little girl. Shui Bingyue thanked her obediently, and everyone went back to their homes.
Soon it was five o'clock in the afternoon, and Shui Bingyue made dinner. Shui Jianjun arrived at the door of the house at half past five.
Then the neighbor across the street came out and told him that traffickers were targeting Bingyue today.
Shui Jianjun was frightened when he heard this. After all, he had always thought that the public security in Beijing was very good, but he didn't expect that there were still dangers everywhere.
After thanking his neighbor, he knocked on his door. Shui Bingyue quickly opened the door for him.
Shui Jianjun closed the courtyard door, parked his bicycle, and took his sister into his arms. He blamed himself: "I shouldn't have left you at home alone."
Shui Bingyue patted the third brother on the shoulder and said seriously: "This is not the fault of the third brother. It is because there are too many bad people. Maybe I have a special physique and easily attract bad people."
"What are you talking about? It's all my fault. I shouldn't have dressed you up so beautifully. It's better for the little girl to be more elegant in the future."
Shui Bingyue shrugged her nose and asked, "Third brother, do you smell anything weird?"
"What's wrong?"
"Ah, it's the gnocchi soup I cooked. Maybe it's mushy."
Shui Jianjun let go of his sister and quickly went to the kitchen and brought down the soup pot. The two of them had a burnt dinner.
After dinner, Shui Jianjun discussed with his sister: "I'll take you to Zi Qi's house. Her father is looking forward to you staying at his house. There are guards in and out, so it's safer than here."
"But, we are not relatives, so it wouldn't be good for me to live with them."
Shui Jianjun pinched his sister's cheek and said with a smile: "Uncle Zhao has said this a long time ago. I am busy with work and really don't want you to encounter anything like today again."
"But I don't want to live in someone else's house. I'll feel uncomfortable that way." Shui Bingyue has the ability to protect herself, but her brother is obviously worried and it's really difficult to handle.
