Song Yi cried for a long time and gradually fell asleep in his arms.
He picked her up and laid her down on the bed, sitting by the bedside watching her as she slept.
Huo Shaohua felt very sorry for her; she had lost a lot of weight, all because of him.
For him, she changed many things she originally didn’t like.
Including having children.
But it seemed her changes still couldn’t save their relationship.
For the next two days, Huo Shaohua stayed with Song Yi without visiting Tianxin.
The days quietly passed by for a week, Tian Xingyun always felt something was off.
Her hand was slowly getting better; she no longer needed intravenous fluids or medication, just some ointment.
Her foot still hurt a bit; she couldn’t walk with much force and could only walk gently.
The business in the shop was gradually getting better, and the old customers who knew she had opened a store all came to support her.
Ping also started learning flower arranging from Tian Xingyun, and her admiration for Tian Xingyun grew.
Ping was also a child from the countryside, she had stopped schooling at eighteen.
She came out to work to support her younger brother’s education.
Her family was very poor, her father only knew how to drink, and when drunk, he would beat her, her mother, and her brother.
Her mother couldn’t stand her father’s violence anymore and finally found the courage to call the police.
After multiple mediations, the father still didn’t change, so the mother filed for divorce.
After the divorce, her mother took her and her brother back to their grandmother’s home.
She gave up her studies to work, just in time to see the Huo family hiring maids.
Originally, they didn’t plan to hire her due to her young age, but that day Tian Xingyun finished lunch and was strolling around.
Seeing how small and frail Ping was and knowing her rural background, Tian Xingyun pleaded with Uncle Liu to hire Ping.
Ping was very grateful to Tian Xingyun and regarded her as a benefactor!
"Young Madam, your hands are really skilled!" Ping watched from the side, her eyes filled with admiration as she watched Tian Xingyun arrange flowers.
"Learn slowly; you’ll be great in the future." Tian Xingyun encouraged Ping, remembering how tough it was when she first learned flower arranging.
But she didn’t give up, practicing every day to achieve her current skill level.
"I will study hard!" Ping nodded happily.
"You haven’t gone home for a long time, have you? How’s everything at home?" Tian Xingyun asked with concern, as she also knew about Ping’s family situation.
She felt sorry for Ping, bearing the burden of supporting her family at such a young age.
Compared to Ping, she felt very fortunate, having her parents and three brothers, she didn’t need to worry about anything.
After getting married, she couldn’t worry about much in the Huo family either.
Even when opening the shop, it was him who helped her, she just needed to accept it.
"Pretty good, my brother got into the best high school in our hometown!" Ping spoke of her brother with pride; her brother was truly impressive.
"High school is very important, there’s a great high school in our area, your brother is so good at studying, he should have no problem getting in." Tian Xingyun thought for a few seconds and said, wanting to help Ping and her brother out.
For rural children, studying was the only way out.
If the grades are good, they should be cultivated well, and now she also has the ability to support Ping’s brother.
She didn’t need to use Huo Shaohua’s five hundred million; she could make money through her own business.
Tianxin was still young and didn’t cost much, plus she didn’t need to worry about her.
Things that hadn’t even crossed her mind were already taken care of by Grandma.
"Really? I’ve heard about that school, the teachers there are excellent! But..." Ping’s joyful expression quickly deflated, realizing the tuition was very expensive.
Although her salary was decent, she had to give some to her mother, save some, and still give a bit to her father.
The remaining amount was for her brother’s tuition and pocket money, and if he came to study here, her salary wouldn’t be enough!
