When cousin Lin Shuang's parents passed away, she was adopted by Lin Man's parents and became the family's darling.
Lin Man, on the other hand, became the sandwiched punching bag,...
Chapter 672 (Page 1/2)
Liao Sijie was about to express her opinion, but before she could say anything, she saw Huo Yichen carefully holding Huo Anyan and slowly walking out of the room.
He gently placed his sister in the cradle. After settling her down, Huo Yichen turned around, looked at Song Jingjing, and asked softly, "Mom, where are Dad and Zizi?"
Song Jingjing frowned slightly, a trace of confusion and worry on her face, and replied: "Oh, I don't know where your father and sister went!"
Huo Yichen thought for a moment, then asked, "Mom, how is Zizi doing now? She should be fine, right?"
Song Jingjing quickly comforted her son, "Don't worry, son. The doctor has already taken care of Zizi's wound. She'll be fine. You don't have to worry too much about her."
Huo Yichen nodded, but still said with some concern: "Mom, in my opinion, Dad has probably sent my sister to grandma's house again.
I guess Daddy is also afraid that if he leaves my sister at home, if she gets angry, you might hit her again..."
Upon hearing this, Song Jingjing hurriedly explained, "Chenchen, Mom used to just scare your sister with a ruler. How could she really do such a thing? This time it was purely an accident. Mom really didn't mean to hit her..."
However, Huo Yichen retorted seriously, "Mom, no matter what, hitting people is always wrong. Besides, Auntie never hits or scolds children."
Song Jingjing was immediately displeased when she heard this, "Chenchen, why do you always mention your aunt's kindness?
Besides, how can you be sure that your aunt never beats children? Maybe they are just hiding it from you.
Huo Yichen slowly lowered his eyes and remained silent, because Wenwen had already told him that his aunt would never hit or scold them.
If they made a mistake, and it was an outrageously serious mistake, the most they would do was stand in the corner and write a letter of apology.
But if you behave well and do the right thing, your aunt will give you corresponding rewards.
But now, everything that happened at home made him feel extremely confused and puzzled.
My aunt is also a mother, but she has never hit her own children, let alone picked up a cup and smashed it on her daughter's head.
He really couldn't figure out what was wrong with his mother today. His mother looked exactly like his classmate's aunt who had fallen ill.
When my classmate's aunt gets mad, she throws stones at children and curses at them.
Sometimes he would even take off all his clothes and run around naked near his home. At this moment, although his mother had not yet taken off her clothes and ran around, her hysterical yelling, cursing, and hitting people were too similar to his classmate's aunt.
Thinking of this, Huo Yichen walked up to Song Jingjing with heavy steps and said with a worried look on his face, "Mom, are you feeling unwell? If so, let's go see a doctor right away, okay?"
Seeing her son so concerned about her, Song Jingjing's tears immediately rolled down her eyes uncontrollably again.
She quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and pretended to be calm and replied, "Son, Mom is fine. I'm in good health!"
However, Huo Yichen obviously did not completely believe what his mother said.
He frowned slightly and continued to persuade, "Oh, I'm glad Mom isn't sick. But Mom, next time you get sick, don't hit anyone casually. Otherwise, Dad might really send you to the Third Hospital."
Song Jingjing stood there in a daze. After a while, she finally understood what her son had just said, as if waking from a dream.
She stared at her son with wide eyes in disbelief, her heart filled with shock and grievance.
"What? You actually said that I, your mother, am mentally ill? Son, how could you think of me like this? I told you, I hit your sister accidentally." Song Jingjing's voice was filled with tears, and tears began to well up in her eyes.
She looked down at herself, trying to recall if she had any unusual behavior or behaviour recently, but she couldn't figure out how she could have given her son such a ridiculous idea.

"Wow, wow, wow... I raised you with so much trouble and gave so much to this family, and you actually said that mom is mentally ill! My life is so miserable!" Song Jingjing could no longer suppress her inner grief and burst into tears.
Seeing this, Liao Sijie hurried forward to comfort Song Jingjing, and quickly hugged her son in her arms and prepared to leave.
"Cousin, don't be sad. Children are ignorant and say things without thinking. Don't take it to heart. I will take my baby home first and come to see you tomorrow." After saying that, Liao Sijie hurried away holding her son.
Huo Yichen looked at his mother suspiciously and asked softly, "Mom, are you really not sick? Why do I feel like something is wrong?"
His eyes were filled with worry and confusion...
Hearing her son's question, Song Jingjing burst into tears and cried, "Wow, son, how can you say that about me? How could I be mentally ill? Do I look like someone who's mentally ill?"
Song Jingjing sobbed and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her hands. Huo Yichen hurriedly explained, "Mom, that's not what I meant.
I have only heard that mental illness is a mental abnormality caused by some physical or psychological reasons, and its specific manifestations include confused thinking, emotional fluctuations, strange behavior, etc.
For example, when you encounter a problem, you tend to become overly nervous and even lose control of your mind... That's why I'm worried that you might be sick."
Song Jingjing took a deep breath, tried to calm down, and then slowly said, "Son, I know you are concerned about me, but I am really not sick.
It's just that your Aunt Xue said she was going home recently, and Mom was in a bad mood. But Mom promises you that I will try my best to control my emotions in the future, and will not lose my temper anymore, let alone hit you."
Huo Yichen nodded obediently after hearing this and said, "Well, I believe Mom can do it. Then you should also pay more attention to rest and don't overwork yourself."
At this time, Huo Qingyan pushed the door open and walked in. Huo Yichen walked up to Huo Qingyan and asked, "Dad, is my sister okay? Did you send her to grandma's house?"
Huo Qingyan nodded. "Your sister had five or six stitches on her forehead. She'll have to go to the hospital to have them removed in a few days. I'll send her to your grandmother's house and bring her back after she's healed. Chenchen, isn't your Aunt Xue back yet?"
"She left with her luggage."
Huo Qingyan had never expected that Tang Xue would leave so decisively, and she hadn't even collected her salary for this month.
He shook his head helplessly, thinking that since that was the case, he could only send her a remittance slip. Since they were relatives, there was no way he couldn't afford not to give her the salary.
Huo Qingyan walked to the cradle and carefully lifted the little girl from it. Then, he slowly walked to the sofa and sat down.
After settling down, he casually glanced at Song Jingjing beside him, and then spoke in a leisurely tone:
"Zizi was lucky today that she didn't suffer any brain damage. If she had, her life would have been ruined... Sigh! Tang Xue is gone too, who will take care of An Yan and An Ran?"
Hearing this, Song Jingjing's face instantly turned gloomy.
When she thought about how Huo Qingyan rode away with his daughter on a bicycle, leaving her alone in the hospital, her anger began to rise.
"Hmph, let her go! Even without her, can't I take care of two children by myself? My son is very sensible and well-behaved. He can definitely help me take care of my sister An Yan." Song Jingjing responded indignantly.
However, Huo Qingyan disagreed with her point of view and retorted, "Although my son is sensible, he still has to finish his winter vacation homework. How can he have so much free time to take care of An Yan?"
Song Jingjing frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, she said, "Then I can ask Si Jie to come over and help look after the child. Her son is older now, so he doesn't need her to watch over him all the time."
