Chapter 452 I Feel Like a Burden to My Brother

Chen Meini's face was red due to fever, and now she was crying all the way. Shen Shuyu felt bad when she heard it.

The brother and sister both care about each other and feel sorry for each other. It is unfortunate for them to be so little without the protection of their parents, but they are lucky that their brother and sister relationship is better than any other brother and sister relationship.

Shen Shuyu held the child in her arms and comforted her gently, "Don't say that. If your brother hears it, he will be sad. You are the best sister to him."

"But I feel like I'm a burden to my brother. He's capable and has no problem supporting himself, but he also has to support me. He doesn't want to eat or wear anything, and always wants to leave the best for me. Teacher Shen, I feel so sorry for my brother..."

She didn't want to study, and her brother worked so hard to make her study.

In order to make sure she would not be treated differently by other children at school, her brother saved money to buy her nice clothes and beautiful shoes. All his money was spent on her.

My brother doesn’t even have a decent thick cotton-padded jacket to wear in winter, and his shoes are so worn out, but he’s reluctant to buy new ones.

She secretly saved money for a long, long time to buy a pair of shoes for her brother, but she didn't have a cloth coupon, so she went to help her third grandmother collect firewood.

After picking up the shoes for a year, her third grandmother was finally willing to exchange them for a shoe ticket for her. After the shoes were bought, her brother hadn't even worn them yet, so he secretly sold them and used the money to buy her more shoes.

She didn't want shoes or new clothes. She just wanted her brother to be less tired, but her brother didn't listen to her at all.

Shen Shuyu was about to persuade the child, but Chen Sheng came back without knowing when. He turned around and wiped his tears silently, then turned his head back.

"Minnie, you are not a burden. Minnie is my gift. Only with Minnie around, I will get better and better. I don't have to work hard at all. With Minnie, I am happy every day."

Minnie pouted, "You're lying, you're obviously very tired, brother, I'm not a child anymore, don't always treat me like a child."

Shen Sheng was amused by his sister, "Yes, yes, Minnie is not a child anymore, Minnie is a third-grade student."

The book was brought, and Minnie opened it and entered the ocean of knowledge in a second. She read, and Shen Shuyu and Chen Sheng did not disturb her.

Shen Shuyu went home and brought back the Liberation shoes that Gu Jiandong didn't wear anymore and asked Chen Sheng to wear them.

The Liberation shoes are old but not broken. They are durable and can be worn for at least two or three years.

There were new Liberation shoes at home. Shen Shuyu knew that if she brought new ones, the child would definitely not want them. After thinking about it, she took out an old pair. Gu Jiandong was diligent and clean. He would wash and put away any clothes and shoes that he didn't wear.

Chen Sheng refused to wear them, "Teacher Shen, I don't want them. These shoes are too good. I don't need to wear such good shoes."

Even if you take a used pair of Liberation Shoes and sell them on the black market, there will be people rushing to buy them. These shoes are durable and you can look presentable when you wear them.

Teacher Shen paid for his sister's IV drip and gave him meat buns and millet porridge. He was already very good to them, so how could he ask for such good shoes?

"I've already taken it out. It's for you. The weather is getting cold. You can't wear these shoes. You'll get cold. If you get cold, how can you take care of your sister?"

"But……"

"Come on, put it on."

As she spoke, Shen Shuyu had already put the Liberation Shoes on his feet. "Okay, stand up and walk a few steps to see if they fit your feet."

Chen Sheng hummed, stood up and took a few steps, then nodded happily, "It's suitable."

In fact, the shoes are still two sizes too big, but Chen Sheng is very happy because he can still grow and it would be better if the shoes were two sizes bigger so that he can wear them longer.

Chen Sheng wanted to bow again, but Shen Shuyu held him back, "It's not fashionable to bow nowadays. No need to thank me, I didn't do anything."

Shen Shuyu looked up and saw that the child's eyes were red from crying. Shen Shuyu was at a loss for words. "Don't cry. I don't know how to comfort a child of your age."

Chen Sheng choked up, "Teacher Shen, you are so kind to us. I wish you were our mother."

In this way, he and his sister would not become motherless children.

Shen Shuyu didn't know what to say for a moment, "My Minnie knows where it is. You are welcome to come to my house anytime."

Shen Shuyu still had classes, so she couldn't visit Minnie in the hospital in the afternoon. "Minnie, you take care of her. If you need anything, come find me at school."

"Teacher Shen, please go ahead and do your work. I'll take care of Minnie."

Chen Meini was also well-behaved, "Teacher Shen, you go ahead and do your thing, I'm fine."

Shen Shuyu hadn't eaten yet, so while there was still time, she went home and had a bowl of millet porridge.

Su Yueru handed over the buns, "Shu Yu, these buns are delicious. Eat two before going to school. There is still time, no rush."

Shen Shuyu ate quickly. After two buns, she felt almost full. "Mom and Dad, I'm going to school."

His mother just came back and wanted to go out before she could hold him in her arms. Xiaoze was very anxious and stretched out his hands and shouted for his mother to hold him in her arms.

Shen Shuyu held her son for a while before putting him down. "Be good, Xiaoze. Mom will be back soon."

Shen Shuyu ran out quickly and could still hear her son crying when she walked out of the yard.

Gu Changfeng and his friends were not idle at home. The window frame needed to be repaired, so Gu Changfeng found some tools and started repairing the window.

When Su Yueru had time, she would feed the chickens, ducks and geese in the yard.

The study room was still missing a bookshelf, and since there was some wood at home, Gu Chengfeng started making the bookshelf.

Su Yueru watched the flowers in the yard being trimmed. When Shen Shuyu came back, she instantly felt that the flowers they planted at home were several levels higher.

The yard looks like it has changed a lot. I take a chair and lie in the yard, admiring the flowers there. I feel particularly relaxed.

Chen Meini's fever subsided around 7 o'clock, and she said she wanted to go home. Shen Shuyu asked the two children to go to her house for dinner, but both children refused, saying that the meal was already prepared at home.

There were only two of them at home, so who would help them cook? Shen Shuyu knew that the two children didn't want to trouble her.

Fortunately, Shen Shuyu was also prepared. She had packed food in a lunch box before coming to the hospital, including meat buns and millet porridge.

This time Chen Sheng did not refuse. Shen Shuyu gave them the lunch box, and Chen Sheng took it with gratitude.

He can eat anything he wants, but his sister just had a fever and needed something good to eat. He has to take care of his sister, so he can't go to the black market to make money for the time being. He can only shamelessly take the food given by Teacher Shen.

Shen Shuyu touched Chen Meini's head and said, "Don't rush to come to school. Stay at home for two days to get your body back in shape. Then come back to school. If you are in good spirits, you will be able to study more effectively."

"Teacher Shen, I know. Thank you, Teacher Shen."

Chen Sheng also spoke up, "Thank you, Teacher Shen."

"You're welcome. Go home."
