Chapter 358: That’s My Sister!

Song Chu could see Old Zhao’s thoughts and did not object.

Old Zhao had no children and had been betrayed by his apprentice. It was already difficult for him to trust her second brother now.

Old Zhao had imparted all the skills he had learned throughout his life to her second brother. In the future, it was only right that her second brother should care for him in his old age and see him off.

“Alright, next time I come back, I’ll bring them along.”

Song Chu looked up at Song Lao Er, “Second Brother, when I go back, I’ll find Eldest Maternal Uncle to help you with a certificate. You should prepare well in the capital. When Second Sister-in-law and Sanniu arrive, you’ll be responsible for supporting them.”

Song Lao Er used to be rather indifferent, but now he had changed a lot and cared more about his wife and daughter. “Don’t worry, I definitely won’t mistreat them.”

“The reason I’m staying in the capital to work hard is to give them a better life,” he added.

He himself did not have any preference for sons over daughters. He wanted to provide a good life for his only daughter.

Seeing his earnestness, Song Chu nodded in satisfaction, “That’s what a man should be like.”

Song Lao Er: “…” As if he wasn’t like a man before.

“Second Brother, I’ll be staying in the capital for a while. We can contact each other anytime if there’s anything,” Song Lao Si chimed in, grinning at Song Lao Er.

They used to dislike each other, but now, because of their little sister, their relationship had improved a lot. They were brothers, connected by blood, the closest people in the world.

Song Lao Er raised an eyebrow, “What are you staying in the capital for? Weren’t you going to help Lao San sell review materials?”

Song Lao Si smiled and replied, “I went back earlier and found an agent to help Third Brother sell the materials. I don’t need to do it myself anymore. Little Sister lent me three million to invest in a big project, so I’m staying to do big things.”

Song Lao Er’s eyes widened, “What? She lent you three million?”

“Yeah, Little Sister is the best to me,” Song Lao Si proudly raised his chin.

Song Lao Er glared at the boastful Song Lao Si and immediately turned to Song Chu with a wronged expression, “Little Sister, you’re biased. You gave him so much money.”

That was three million! He hadn’t even seen thirty thousand in his life.

Song Chu knew Song Lao Si would show off like this. She said helplessly, “It’s not a gift, it’s a loan. He has to pay me back in the future.”

Seeing Song Lao Er still looking particularly wronged, she chuckled, “Don’t worry, I won’t play favorites. You practice your cooking skills and improve your abilities, and in the future, I’ll also lend you three million to open a national chain of restaurants.”

Although her expectations for her second brother were not as high as those for her fourth brother, since she had decided to enter the catering industry, she wanted to make it the biggest and strongest.

She didn’t plan to be biased towards any of her brothers.

Song Lao Er, who had been looking wronged and pitiful, immediately broke into a big smile, “I knew you were the best, Little Sister. You wouldn’t just favor Lao Si.”

As a man, and having seen the prosperity of the capital, he certainly had ambitions too.

With Little Sister’s words, he was going all out.

Song Chu rolled her eyes at him, “Of course, I treat all of you the same. As long as you strive to improve yourselves, I will support you.”

“Hehe, we’ll definitely strive to improve,” Song Lao Er, having a thick skin, moved closer to Song Chu and flattered her, “Little Sister, what you’ve been doing recently is really amazing. I was so excited and proud when I heard about it.”

He had heard from his master about what Little Sister had been up to in the capital recently. He really wanted to shout out, “That’s my sister!”

Song Lao Si’s face darkened when he saw Song Lao Er trying to flatter Little Sister.

This guy was really shameless. He was only benefiting from Song Lao Si’s own efforts that Little Sister agreed to lend him three million.

So he also squeezed in, “You didn’t see it with your own eyes, how domineering Little Sister was at that time. She…”

He had been there to witness everything, so he also praised Song Chu in various ways.

Song Lao Er wanted to shove this annoying fourth brother into a stinky ditch outside. He was trying to bond with Little Sister, and this guy came to butt in again.

◈◈◈

In the end, it turned into the two of them bickering while flattering and praising Song Chu.

Even Zhao Di couldn’t stand it anymore, “Chu Chu, don’t pay attention to these two idiots.”

“Are you really not eating here? If you want to eat, I can make you a few of your favorite dishes,” he had always been particularly good to Song Chu.

Song Chu smiled and shook her head, “I won’t eat this time. Let Second Brother and his friend have a good get-together.”

“When I come back from Nan Province next time, you can give me a welcome meal then,” she regarded Zhao Di as an elder and was close to him.

Zhao Di smiled and said, “Of course, I’ll prepare two tables for you then to celebrate you getting into university.”

As for whether Song Chu would fail the college entrance examination, he never even considered it.

“Alright, we’ll have two tables here then,” Song Chu also never doubted that she would fail to get into university.

Although she was busy with various things, she had gone through the high school textbooks so many times that she could practically recite them.

Her memory was very good. Although she hadn’t reached the point where she could remember something after seeing it once, she could remember it perfectly after seeing it two or three times.

After sitting for a while longer, Song Chu left with Song Lao Si.

Since she was going back to Nan Province, Song Lao Si couldn’t stay at the Gu residence alone. So Song Chu talked to Old Zhao, and after she left, Song Lao Si would also move to the courtyard.

Old Zhao was naturally very happy. He liked the liveliness now and liked the Song siblings.

Even Song Lao Er, although complaining with his words, was actually happy in his heart. After all, it was good for the brothers to be able to see each other often and look out for each other while they were away from home. Seeing each other also gave them a sense of security.

In the next two days, Song Chu visited her two teachers, had a gathering with Huo Yao and her friends, and then boarded the train back to Nan Province.

Gu Yue originally couldn’t get away, but he still managed to get half a day off to see her off.

The two agreed to meet after the college entrance examination and reluctantly parted at the train station.

Back in Nan Province, Song Chu first returned to the small courtyard she had rented.

Song Ping hadn’t gotten off work yet. She took a shower, slept for a while, and then heard her cousin come back.

Then she saw her cousin pulling Gu Jin in.

“Chu Chu is back!” Song Ping had received a call from Song Chu two days ago and knew she was coming back today. A warm smile appeared on her face.

Song Chu smiled and said, “Yes, I’m back!”

“Did you pick up Xiao Jin from school?” she asked.

Song Ping nodded, “Yes, his dad is on a business trip, so he’s staying with me these days.”

At this time, Gu Jin also ran to Song Chu, his eyes sparkling with a smile, “Aunt Chu Chu, I missed you!”

Song Chu knelt down and kissed his little face, “I missed Xiao Jin too.”

Gu Jin hugged Song Chu’s neck and rubbed against her shoulder. Besides Aunt Ping Ping, Aunt Chu Chu was one of the two women in the world who were the best to him, so he was particularly dependent on her.

Song Chu pulled him inside and took out the gifts she had bought.
