When the baby saw Zhang Jizhou run away, he clapped his hands happily, "Mommy, Mommy, Daddy's gone, the fierce Daddy's gone."
Fang Yan: ...
The genes of this father and son are such that the father abandoned his son on the street, while the son constantly longed for his father to pass away. Honestly, no one would believe they weren't related.
"Dad went to answer the phone."
"Although Fang Yan wanted to take the baby and divorce Zhang Jizhou to make room for the reborn second female lead."
However, children need fatherly love to grow up, especially since the baby is a boy, who needs guidance from a masculine father like Zhang Jizhou.
Besides, in the three years of a child's life, he had only met Zhang Jizhou once and wouldn't even remember him.
Moreover, given how fierce Zhang Jizhou is, it's perfectly normal for the child to be happy when the person they were afraid of leaves.
However, Fang Yan still took the opportunity to guide the child, saying, "Daddy bought you new clothes, a big meat bun and some fragrant porridge. Last night you also ate the lean meat soup noodles that Daddy bought. Daddy is so good to you, you can't say that, otherwise Daddy will be very sad if he hears it."
“But Daddy is so fierce, so very fierce,” the baby said, pulling a long face and trying to imitate Zhang Jizhou’s dark expression. “Baby is scared.”
"Hahaha..." The child's thin and tender face was trying hard to imitate Zhang Jizhou's stern face, which made Fang Yan laugh so hard. She couldn't help but pick up the child and give him a good rub. "Baby, how are you so good? You can even imitate your father's expression so well."
"Hahaha……"
Mom was happy, and the baby laughed along with her.
Fang Yan thought that Zhang Jizhou was just going to answer a phone call and should be back soon.
So he tried to push the cart to the side of the road and waited there.
To be honest, seeing Zhang Jizhou pushing the cart, she thought that operating this thing would be the simplest thing in the world.
As a result, the two wheels of this thing seemed to have their own ideas. Even when it was told to move to the side, it stubbornly refused to come out of the ditch.
After a lot of effort, they finally managed to get it out of the pit. Fang Yan was covered in sweat and was already a little out of breath.
Fortunately, she was clever and packed two bottles of spring water from her space before leaving home, just in case.
She drank a few sips herself, then fed the baby a few sips, and then the mother and son sat on the cart, waiting for Zhang Jizhou.
A short while later, Zhang Jizhou was seen riding back on the same policeman's bicycle.
"Just now... I'm sorry, I just had a conditioned reflex when I heard the word 'emergency'."
When they were in the military, as soon as the alarm sounded or they heard about an emergency mission, no matter what they were doing, they would immediately drop what they were doing and run to assemble.
It wasn't until after he finished the call that Zhang Jizhou realized he wasn't in the military.
Moreover, he seemed to have left Fang Yan and her son on the street without saying a word?
My actions might not seem like a big deal in the military, but on the streets of a county town...
That's a bit outrageous.
"It's nothing," Fang Yan had originally planned to give him a good scolding when he got back, but after his explanation, she couldn't say anything to him. "Now that you've finished the call, can we go back?"
Zhang Jizhou looked at her in surprise, thinking she was going to throw a tantrum.
Unexpectedly, this matter was simply let off the hook so easily?
He was mentally prepared to be criticized, but he never received this unexpected joy.
However, upon hearing Fang Yan's next words, Zhang Jizhou said apologetically, "I just received an urgent mission and cannot return to the village for the time being."
"You have to go back now?" Fang Yan thought to herself. Sure enough, the capable are always overworked. She hadn't taken a vacation in over a year, and after just one day at home, she was called back again.
In fact, this emergency mission was to cooperate with local authorities to arrest a high-profile criminal who had been on the run for many years.
The military has already sent people over, but no matter how fast the helicopter is, it will take more than ten hours to arrive.
They learned that Zhang Jizhou was on vacation, and that the criminals were fleeing towards the county where Zhang Jizhou lived.
Therefore, the higher-ups immediately decided to have Zhang Jizhou cooperate with the local authorities to carry out the operation while waiting for the arrival of the main support force.
Because of the principle of confidentiality, Zhang Jizhou could not say a single word of these things to Fang Yan.
He walked over, opened his backpack, took out the tickets and money hidden in a secret compartment, and handed them to Fang Yan, saying, "This is my allowance from last month. Take it."
Whenever he received his allowance, he would immediately send it to his father.
Since I was planning to take a vacation, I simply brought it with me.
If it were just her, Fang Yan would really feel embarrassed to accept his money and tickets.
But with the child around, she didn't refuse. When she took it, she realized he had used up his entire month's allowance, and couldn't help but ask, "Don't you need to keep some for emergencies?"
"No need." Zhang Jizhou remained aloof.
If you don't need it, then you don't need it.
Fang Yan didn't try to persuade him any further, but simply said, "Half of the money and tickets here are a loan from me, and I'll pay you back later."
The other half is considered as his living expenses for his child.
"Whatever." Zhang Jizhou was a little unhappy. She had calculated everything so meticulously. He frowned and said irritably.
After handing over the money and tickets, he slung his backpack over his shoulder and said, "I'll deal with things at home when I get back."
Fearing she might suffer, he specifically instructed her.
Fang Yan did not respond. If she listened to Zhang Jizhou and waited for him to come back to deal with those scoundrels from the Zhang family, she would probably be bullied to the point of losing her life.
Besides, she's not the type to passively accept being bullied without daring to utter a sound.
Are you trying to make things difficult for me?
Fine, then you won't have an easy time either!
If someone treats me with respect, I will repay them tenfold; if someone squanders a grain of millet on me, I will take away three bushels of it.
If someone respects me, I will respect them in return; if someone offends me, I will repay them tenfold!
Yes, that's just how explosive her personality is.
Anyway, no one should try to persuade her; suffering a loss is a blessing.
This kind of blessing is better left unenjoyed.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Zhang Jizhou assumed that she had taken his words to heart, so he reminded her again, "Take good care of the child."
He paused, then added, "And yourself."
“Yes, you too,” Fang Yan replied politely, then pointed to the cart next to her, “What do we do with this?”
"Should you push it back slowly?" Zhang Jizhou was also a little worried.
He could find a place to temporarily store the cart.
The key issue is that you might need it urgently from your neighbor.
In rural areas, handcarts still have many uses. For example, they are used for transporting rice and sweet potatoes, which is much more convenient than carrying them back from the fields by hand.
WHAT?!
Fang Yan looked terrified. Did she really want her to push this thing back from the county town?
She was afraid that on the way, if she encountered an uphill or downhill section, she would end up being pulled by a cart!
