Chapter 151 "Mud Horn"
Chapter 151 "Mud Horn"
Looking back on yesterday, at that door in a foreign land...
"Where do you come from, my friend?"
"Your wealth or poverty is predetermined by fate."
"Three parts destiny, seven parts hard work"
Familiar and melodious Mandarin songs, Cantonese songs, and Hokkien songs drifted into the ears of Liu Shuyu and the others on the street.
As Liu Shuyu listened to these popular songs, he looked at the young people wearing jeans and leather jackets on the street, and the old man sitting on the street listening to Cantonese opera.
Red taxis shuttled back and forth on the street, while crowds of cyclists thronged the area.
The weather in Guangzhou wasn't as cold as everyone had imagined. The midday sun was shining down, and everyone unzipped their heavy coats to let in some fresh air.
Wow! There are so many people!
"Mud Horn~!"
Deok-sun happily pulled Yoo Seo-woo along and greeted the old man on the street.
"Hello to you too~~" The old man looked at the enthusiastic Deok-sun with surprise, then smiled and nodded. "These young people nowadays are so polite~ but their Mandarin is still the same as ever~~ like a foreigner~"
Watching the old man mutter to himself as he walked, Liu Shuyu, though not from Guangzhou, was still from Lingnan and could understand Cantonese. He couldn't help but chuckle as he looked at Deok-sun, who was as warm as the sun.
"Shuyu? What did that grandpa say?" Deoksun asked curiously, looking at his expression.
"I'm praising your Chinese!" Liu Shuyu said, suppressing a laugh as he looked at her.
"Really!!"
"Hey~ Okay, Sung Deok-sun~ Can you be quiet?" Bora realized that Yoo Seo-woo was teasing her.
"Tch~~ You're everywhere~" Deok-sun pouted and secretly rolled her eyes at Bora.
"Shuyu~ Is it really okay to leave Donglong alone at the hotel to take care of Aze?" Shanyu asked, holding the curious Pearl with some concern for the baby fish.
"It's okay~ We'll let him come out to play tomorrow~ He lost at rock-paper-scissors after all~" Liu Shuyu said, then looked at Zheng Huan, "Right~ Zheng Huan!"
"Of course! Dong-ryong doesn't need to worry about it~ He's very experienced in taking care of Taek~" Jung-hwan looked around curiously.
"Alright then~" Sunwoo hugged Jinju, his worry instantly turning into a smile. "Jinju~ Come on~ let's go eat something delicious with Seowoo oppa~~"
Paula looked at Sunwoo, who was taking care of Pearl, and couldn't help but glance at him a few more times.
Sunwoo, who was carefully holding Pearl, didn't pay much attention to Bora as usual, and didn't even notice that Bora was looking at him.
"Let's go, bro! I want to eat Chinese food!!" Yu Hui stood to Liu Shuyu's left, looking at him expectantly.
"Me too!!!" Deok-sun, on the right, stared at him with wide eyes.
"Let's go then!" Liu Shuyu waved his hand, and the excited group of friends followed behind him like chicks in a game of tag.
The motorcycle taxi drivers who were trying to solicit customers on the street swallowed their pitches as soon as they heard them speaking a foreign language.
No way~
It's like they're talking at cross purposes—they think the people soliciting customers are greeting them!
Especially Deok-sun~
A bite
"Mud number~ Mud number~"

Ward
Cui Wusheng struggled to hold the kettle and pour himself a glass of water, but the weakness after surgery wouldn't heal in a day or two. He managed to pour for a few seconds before giving up.
I got up and took a couple of steps, but my legs still felt weak. I stumbled and even knocked over the plate on the table.
"Click~"
"Hey~ Big brother! What are you doing?" Shanying happened to walk to the door.
Hearing the noise, she quickly pushed open the door and saw Cui Wusheng sitting on the ground.
"Don't move, don't move~ If you're weak, just take good care of yourself~" Sun-young helped Choi Moo-seong up from the ground. With some difficulty, she could only reach under his armpits and lift him up to put him on the bed.
"Thank you for your help again~" Cui Wusheng sat on the bed.
Sun-young just sighed and smiled helplessly at him.
In the ward afterwards, Sun-young's busy figure resembled an ant busily moving house.
She tidied up the bedding and clothes on the hospital bed, cleared the food on the table, poured water for Cui Wusheng, and handed it to him to drink.
I rocked the bed up and also retouched his crooked shirt buttons.
Choi Moo-sung sat quietly on the bed, silently accepting Sun-young's care.
He didn't seem to treat Sun-young with the same politeness he showed the other two aunties.
........
Sunwoo's family
"Dingling bell~~"
In the quiet house, Sun-young was still looking at the phone book when the phone rang.
"Hello?" Sun-young answered the phone.
"Oh! Brother, why did you suddenly call?" Sun-young asked, somewhat surprised.
"Sunyoung, I know everything. Is there a problem with the house you're living in? Did your mother-in-law do it?" Sunyoung's older brother asked with concern.
"You heard it from your younger brother, didn't you?"
"That kid is really something, he can't keep his mouth shut, he told you so quickly."
Sun-young complained about her big-mouthed younger brother.
“Sunyoung, how can you not tell your brother if something's wrong? You two are my only younger siblings,” Sunyoung’s older brother said worriedly.
"It's okay, brother. I'm looking for a place to live, don't worry," Sun-young reassured her brother.
“Sunyoung~ Your brother is incompetent and has no money to help you~ I’ll ask my friends to borrow some for you, don’t worry…” Sunyoung’s older brother’s voice on the phone made her quickly interrupt him.
"Oh, no need! Bro!"
"I know you don't have money, brother, it's really not necessary~ I'm fine~"
"Ten million is no small sum~ My brother also has a family!"
“It’s alright, I have quite a few wealthy friends!” Brother Shanying’s concerned voice came through the phone.
“I know~ I know my brother’s friend is rich~ I really don’t need to~” Sun-young refused again.
Seeing this, Brother Shanying gave him some helpless instructions.
"You must tell your brother if you need to borrow money!"
"Okay~ I'll tell them!"
"Even if I need to borrow money, I will do it myself~ Big brother, don't worry~" Sun-young assured her again.
Brother Shanying reluctantly hung up the phone.
"Sigh~" Sun-young sighed, looked at the rental information in the phone book in her hand, and once again hesitated before taking out the card that Liu Shu-yu had left before leaving.
She had already checked it on her way back from the hospital; it was exactly ten million, no more, no less.
Simply taking it to the bank will end this housing crisis.
Sun-young sighed again, burying her head deeply in her knees as she squatted beside the phone, seemingly unsure whether to accept Liu Shu-yu's help or try to find a solution on her own...
