"Little Sweetheart, you said it would be fine after a few days of rest, why do we need a cast? Won't that cost a lot of money?"
Su Xiaocao was still reluctant. This time, it would cost her several days' worth of expenses.
She had a job now, but she had her own expenses and needed to save some money for her parents' old age.
She had also seen her two sisters-in-law clearly. Now that her parents could still move, they were like startled birds.
In the future, her parents' retirement would still depend on her.
Fortunately, she didn't plan to get married, and no one would say anything if she supported her parents.
"Sister Xiaocao, you should listen to the doctor and not worry about the money."
Teacher Xie Nan also said busily, "Xiaocao, you saved me, and I won't let you spend money."
Teacher Xie Nan was anxious. For a moment, she forgot that the perpetrator was still waiting at the scene to pay.
"Auntie, please don't worry. I'll pay for all of this, not just the medical expenses, but also the nutrition and lost wages."
Encountering someone so easy to talk to, the young driver felt that it was right to pay a little more.
"My name is Gu Chengxuan. I don't have much money on me today. After paying the examination fee, I only have fifty yuan left. Please accept this money for now and give me an address. I'll come back tomorrow."
Fifty yuan?
Su Xiaocao was startled.
The medical expenses had already been paid. After giving fifty yuan, she still felt it was not enough?
Su Xiaocao panicked and quickly looked at Su Xiaotian.
Su Xiaotian glanced at Gu Chengxuan.
"Comrade, driving at your speed is not acceptable."
Her words made Gu Chengxuan feel ashamed.
But he also knew that the young girl was telling the truth.
He really didn't know how to drive. He was flustered and wanted to slow down, but somehow, he kept speeding up.
Fortunately, today he only hit Teacher Xie and the young lady, who were easy to talk to. If he had encountered someone difficult, he would have been stripped bare today.
He also had to thank this girl for saving Teacher Xie in time, otherwise, he might have gone to jail.
The more he thought about it, the more scared he became, and Gu Chengxuan apologized repeatedly.
"Just be careful in the future. You don't need to give any more money." Teacher Xie saw that the young man's attitude of admitting his mistake was quite good, so she didn't intend to pursue it further.
Of course, one of the reasons was that this young man was from the Gu family and should be related to Cui Tonglan.
Gu Chengxuan insisted on leaving the fifty yuan and asked to drive a few people home.
Su Xiaotian thought about Gu Chengxuan's driving skills and felt that walking back was safer.
Gu Chengxuan, who was refused, finally left his contact information with everyone, saying that they could contact him anytime if there were any problems. Su Dan Novel Network
Teacher Xie Nan returned to the Su family with Su Xiaocao and Su Xiaotian.
Su Xiaocao didn't think much of it, only thinking that Teacher Xie Nan and Su Xiaotian had a very good relationship, and it was not strange for them to visit often.
However, why was Teacher Xie Nan so enthusiastic towards her?
Su Xiaotian couldn't help but smile when she saw Teacher Xie Nan like this.
"Teacher Xie, you should go back first. I'm fine here. Besides, Xiaotian is looking after me." Su Xiaocao felt awkward.
She saved the person voluntarily, and Teacher Xie's behavior made her uncomfortable.
"Xiaocao, we hit it off immediately. I didn't expect you to save me today. I feel like we really have a connection."
As she said this, Teacher Xie Nan was sweating.
She had never been so nervous when lecturing students, so why was she so nervous after saying these two sentences?
She was really becoming more and more useless.
Su Xiaotian just smiled and watched from the side, amused.
"Teacher Xie, you are too kind." Su Xiaocao was also nervous.
She always felt that this Teacher Xie was a bit abnormal. What was going on?
"Xiaocao, I have no children and no one to depend on. It's rare to meet a child like you with whom I have a connection. I want to recognize you as my goddaughter. Do you agree?"
Su Xiaocao was shocked.
How could she want to recognize a daughter without a word?
A goddaughter is also a daughter!
"This, this isn't good..."
Su Xiaotian felt that it would be wrong if she didn't speak up now.
She walked over and sat by Su Xiaocao's bed, saying, "Sister Xiaocao, there's nothing wrong with this. I think it's very good."
Su Xiaocao did not expect Su Xiaotian to agree as well.
This was too abrupt.
"Sister Xiaocao, you don't know, people in the capital have strict rules. If a child is saved, they should recognize their savior as a godparent and be filial."
"You saved Teacher Xie today, and it's reasonable for Teacher Xie to recognize you as a goddaughter and dote on you."
This was, of course, something Su Xiaotian made up. Some families did have their children recognize their saviors as godparents, but this was not absolute.
Su Xiaocao felt that something was wrong with this matter.
However, she couldn't figure out what was wrong for a moment.
"Exactly, Xiaocao. You saved me. After thinking about it, I have no other way to express my gratitude. It just so happens that I can recognize you as my daughter and dote on you like my own daughter in the future. This can be considered repaying the life-saving grace."
Teacher Xie looked gratefully at Su Xiaotian. This girl was really good at talking.
Fortunately, she had this child Xiaotian to help her, otherwise, she wouldn't know what to say.
"I need to think about this." Su Xiaocao said hesitantly.
Although what Xiaotian and Teacher Xie said seemed reasonable, she stubbornly believed that such a major event could not be decided just like that.
She not only needed to think about it but also to ask her parents' opinion, after all, such a big matter.
Su Xiaotian nodded, "That's right. Let's call Uncle Changjiu later to get his opinion."
Su Xiaocao did not expect Su Xiaotian to say what she was thinking.
This was exactly her intention. It was unreasonable to make such a big decision without consulting her parents.
Teacher Xie Nan looked at the interaction between the two girls and instantly understood.
Her Xiaocao was truly well-taught.
She was so respectful of her elders.
Teacher Xie Nan thought of her own daughter, who respected her parents but not herself, and felt a pang of sadness.
But she also knew that this was for the best.
"You're right, we should seek your parents' opinion. This is a big matter. If you both agree, we will be a family from now on."
Su Xiaocao was even more shocked. How did they suddenly become a family?
Were people in the capital so polite?
Although Teacher Xie Nan was reluctant, seeing that the sky was getting dark, she finally left.
When she left, she said she would come again tomorrow.
In the evening, when the other members of the Su family returned, they were all frightened to see Su Xiaocao injured.
How did the good child get injured after staying at their house for a few days?
Especially Su Sanggong, he anxiously approached Su Xiaocao to inquire about her well-being, asking if she felt uncomfortable anywhere and if she needed to get another check-up.
Everyone had gotten used to Su Sangong's kindness to Su Xiaocao these days, so they didn't find anything wrong with it.
Instead, Su Xiaotian found it strange.
