Chapter 173 Sun Bomin and his wife came out to visit
Unconsciously, half a month had passed. Sun Shan read, ate, and slept every day, following a simple and fulfilling path.
At lunchtime, Uncle Hong came in and said, "Sun Shan, Ah Shan, your father and mother are here."
After Sun Shan finished his last bite of rice, he was stunned. Why did his father and mother come? Did something happen at home?
I was anxious, but I said calmly, "Uncle Hong, I'll be right there."
I hurriedly followed Uncle Hong to the gate.
When I walked out of the gate, I saw Sun Boming, Su and my eldest sister Guyu standing outside the wall of the dormitory.
He walked over and said, "Dad, Mom, and Sister, why are you here? Is there something wrong at home?"
Su saw Sun Shan from a distance and ran over eagerly. She touched him left and right and said distressedly, "Oh, Master, our Shan has lost weight. Oh, I am so heartbroken."
Sun Bomin nodded hurriedly and said, "You have indeed lost weight, Shanzi, did you not eat well in school?"
Sun Bomin looked at Sun Shan with pity. The more he looked, the thinner he seemed to be. It seemed that he was having a hard time in school.
It is good to stay at home for a thousand days, but it is difficult to go out for even one day. Without his family around, how could Shanzi not lose weight?
Sun Shan looked at Sun Boming and his wife speechlessly. He felt that he had not lost weight at all, but just couldn't gain weight or grow taller.
Guyu asked with concern: "Shanzi, how is the food in the school? Is it bad? Do you eat very little?"
Guyu also felt that his younger brother had become thinner and looked worse than at home. It must be because the food in school was not good and his younger brother did not eat well.
Then he thought of something and asked hurriedly, "Shanzi, are you too tired in school?"
Studying all day long and doing laundry and cleaning must be very tiring. Oh, it’s not good to live in the countryside. When you go out to study, you can only live in the school.
Sun Shan quickly shook his head: "Father, mother, elder sister, I am doing well in school and I am not tired at all. I have made many friends. Everyone helps me because I am the youngest. Don't worry."
At this moment, Sun Shan finally realized that nothing had happened at home. If there was something wrong, he would have said it long ago instead of saying: Shanzi has lost weight.
It seems that Sun Boming and Su were worried about Sun Shan's life in the school, so they came to check it out.
Sun Bomin shook his head in disbelief. "Even if someone helps, how much can they help? You left your parents to study at such a young age. It's too hard. You have to do everything by yourself."
Su also thought so: "Shanzi, you should just study in the school from now on. Leave your dirty clothes in a pile. Dad and Mom have decided to come to the city every seven days to help you wash your clothes."
Su decided to bribe Uncle Hong with money to allow her to go into the dormitory to help Sun Shan wash clothes. If she couldn't bribe him, she would take the clothes home to wash and return them after seven days.
Anyway, the couple didn't have any formal jobs, they just did housework and could go out of the city anytime.
As for food, the meals are improved once every seven days, which is better than eating in school for a month.
Sun Bomin agreed and said, "Shanzi, just do as your mother says. We will come out once every seven days to help you wash your clothes. You just need to study hard in school, and your father and mother will take care of the rest."
Guyu nodded and said, "Shanzi, Dad and Mom are right. We will come out to see you once every seven days, help you wash your clothes, and bring you delicious food."
I thought that after I married into the Xia family, I would help my brother wash his clothes myself, without having my parents running back and forth so hard.
The younger brother is in good health, and the older sister at home is in good health. I have to rely on my younger brother for support in the future.
Although Guyu felt that his brother was too small to fight, he was smart and could use tricks to make people submit and support the family.
Sun Shan's face was full of black lines. He couldn't stand such pampering and said firmly: "Father, mother, elder sister, I can wash my own clothes, and the food in the school is not bad. Your worries are unnecessary. And I haven't lost weight at all. You must have seen it wrong."
Sun Bomin and Su wanted to say something else.
Sun Shan hurriedly stopped them: "Dad, Mom, don't worry. I'm doing well in school. The teacher is very good and I've learned a lot of useful things. My classmates are also very friendly to me and often help me. Dad, Mom, don't worry. If there is really a problem, I will definitely tell you."
Then he said to his elder sister Guyu, "Sister, don't worry about me. Please take good care of the flowers at home. Whether I can continue my studies depends on these flowers."
We need to give them some task encouragement so that they don't have any random thoughts.
Then he said to Sun Bomin and Su: "Father, mother, please help me take care of the flowers so that I can study more at ease. I'm counting on you."
Sun Bomin assured: "Don't worry, the flowers at home will be fine with us."
Su was still worried about Sun Shan, so she asked again, "Are you really doing well in school? Are you not lying to me?"
Sun Shan shook his head and said, "Mother, don't worry. I'm fine. I eat well, sleep well, and study every day. My life is perfect. You know I like studying the most. I love studying at Hong's School and have a teacher who is a scholar. I love it."
Su nodded reluctantly, but seeing that Sun Shan didn't seem to be wronged, she felt relieved.
Ever since Sun Shan went to the county town to study and live there, they were no longer around. Sun Bomin and Su Shi could not eat or sleep well and were worried about him.
After half a month, he could no longer bear it, so he took Guyu out of the city early in the morning to visit Sun Shan.
He thought that if his son was not doing well, he would spend more money to rent a house nearby and let Su come out to accompany him to study.
Since Sun Shan would definitely not want to go back to the village to study, the couple had to accommodate their son.
As it turned out, apart from being a little thinner, the son was in good spirits and kept saying that he was doing well. The couple's decision went without saying.
Sun Shan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Sun Bomin and Su Shi no longer insisted and asked with concern, "Dad, Mom, Big Sister, are grandma and sisters at home okay?"
Sun Bomin smiled and said, "Okay, everything is fine, don't worry."
Sun Shan was happy to hear that everyone was doing well.
Su added: "Everything is fine at home, except that Dege'er is unhappy because he can't go to school with you."
Speaking of this, Su wanted to laugh. De Ge'er, the chatterbox, kept asking when Shanzi would return home and said that he missed Shanzi very much.
After Sun Shan heard this, he smiled and said, "Mother, please tell De Ge'er that I am fine and will go back to play with him."
Afterwards, everyone talked about their own situations.
Sun Shan saw that the time was almost up, so he waved his hand and said, "Father, Mother, Sister, I'm about to go to school, you should go back too."
Sun Bomin knew the school's class schedule and said with understanding, "Okay, you can go back."
Su and Guyu brought another pile of food to Sun Shan.
Su said reluctantly: "If you want to eat anything, wait for your father to come and pick you up before buying it. Don't leave the school. You are too young. Be careful not to get beaten."
Sun Shan said seriously, "Mother, I'm not going anywhere. I'm just studying in the school."
Su and Sun Boming were relieved. Shanzi was a trustworthy person and would definitely not tell anyone what he wanted to say.
He said goodbye to Sun Shan reluctantly and did not leave until the door of the dormitory was closed.
Su sorted out her thoughts and said, "Master, let's go and take the eldest girl to see the dowry box."
The styles in the village were too ordinary. Sun Boming and Su thought the ones in the county were nice-looking, so they brought Guyu out and let her choose.
After all, as the first daughter, she must prepare her dowry well and not embarrass herself.
Sun Bomin hummed, and Guyu blushed. He lowered his head embarrassedly and followed Sun Bomin and his wife.
