Chapter 255 Arrangement
A day off was quickly coming to an end.
Yang PeiMin had also had a hard day. Under her careful care, their diet was light and nutritious. She made sure they drank plenty of water, took their medicine on time, rested plenty, and had herbal baths. Xiao Niu’s condition had improved considerably—she no longer had a fever. Although she still coughed, it was mostly just during her midday nap and only an occasional one or two coughs at other times. Da Niu’s condition had always been milder than Xiao Niu’s, and now she was completely better.
Perhaps it was because of the illness, people tend to become especially fragile, especially children. Coupled with the fact that they had just been separated from their parents, the two sisters were well-behaved and quiet, but their mood was still quite somber. Yang PeiMin, having been through similar experiences herself, felt particularly understanding and empathetic.
Fortunately, the girls had been quite familiar with her before because she was the aunt who always had candy with her, which made it easier for children to accept her. Now, the two children were particularly clingy, following her wherever she went.
Although there were people gossiping that she was looking after other people’s children in order to have one of her own, there were also those who spoke of her kindness. After all, before Yang PeiMin took over, Luo Dahua had asked quite a few people. Many were reluctant to take on sick children, wanting to avoid trouble. Illness in children can be a big deal or a small one. Observant people noticed that Luo Dahua’s Xiao Niu had been sick for a while. Getting involved at this point meant unforeseeable accidents could occur. If something happened to the child, what could one possibly offer as compensation?
Shen Yiguang began to worry about his own wife at home. After all, looking after two children was not something to be taken lightly.
"Are you really taking them back to the school?"
Yang PeiMin nodded. "I have to take them."
Shen Yiguang raised an eyebrow, waiting for her to continue.
