Chapter 50 Chapter 50 "During this period...
"Have you been good during this time?"
"Be good."
Jin Man put the child down and let him look through the toys he bought.
Jin Duoduo, smelling of soapberry and wearing a pair of squeaking new shoes, dragged a wooden horse from the corner and said, "Manman, look! Grandpa made this for me!"
He divided the gold into pieces and rode on a pony, and the two of them laughed as much as the little fools.
Zhou Yu felt that Jin Man sometimes looked like a young boy, so childish. He didn't expect that he was actually married.
The small wooden horse feels round and smooth, polished to no burrs, and the surface is coated with wood wax oil, which feels smooth to the touch.
Jin Man couldn't let it go and praised the old man a lot.
The old man came out with his back hunched and his apron rubbed, and started to prepare for them to jump over the fire basin to get rid of the disease. He kept saying that they had lost a lot of weight and needed to be taken good care of to make up for it.
The old man was distressed: "The food out there is not nourishing. You two have become so thin."
Zhou Yu pinched Jin Duoduo's face and laughed: "Dad, don't use so much oil when cooking. This guy has become fat as a ball."
Jin Duoduo smacked his fingers and leaned against the old man. His little face had become fatter. It seemed that he had eaten a lot of delicious food during this period.
Jin Man poked him curiously: "How come it's so round?"
After dinner, the weather turned cooler in the evening. Jin Man felt the wind and went home with the child in his arms. Zhou Yu followed behind with a cane, having something to say.
The two of them were a little far away from Zhou Yu's house. Zhou Yu lit a cigarette, but didn't smoke it. He just wanted to smell the scent, otherwise he would feel uncomfortable all over.
"Xiaoman, the matter with Xin Mihe..."
It was normal for Zhou Yu to worry about Jin Man. His ex-husband didn't look like a kind person. Why would he help him so much for no reason?
It's nothing more than that she still can't forget her ex-husband and still has evil intentions.
But Jin Man obviously didn't like him, and this kind of thing happened to him. Zhou Yu didn't want Jin Man to lose face in front of his ex because of him and suffer any loss.
"Brother, he wanted to come here on his own, no one forced him."
There was no falsehood in this statement. Jin Manyi had neither begged him nor threatened him, so he felt no guilt in saying it.
In the past ten days, he was the only one running around in the hospital and at home. He lost a lot of weight and had no mood to think about what the "young master" was thinking.
Jin Man held the child and changed his posture: "Anyway, the money is paid by the insurance company. Whether the car is repaired or not, and how it is repaired is their business."
Your savings have been completely depleted, and you can't go out to work during this period. Take a good rest first and don't think about these things."
Zhou Yuxin said: How can I not think about it? He coughed, and instead of being polite, he asked bluntly: "Your ex-husband doesn't seem to have a good temper. Will he come to bother you again?"
The person who said it was so nonchalant that the listener was stunned for a moment. Jin Man said with a stern face: "Let him be. Besides, I said it so harshly. He is a very proud person. I guess he will never come again in this life."
Lu Yanlin had never lost anyone in his life, but he probably lost them all in the hospital that day.
Who in his circle dares to yell at him, and curse him so harshly?
Zhou Yu groaned nonchalantly, "That's a pity."
Jin Man said: "What's a pity?"
Zhou Yu sniffed the cigarette and said with a half-smile, "If he comes looking for you again, I can beat him up and let you vent your anger."
Jin Man thought about how Lu Yanlin was beaten black and blue, and actually felt a little relieved.
In a secular sense, Omegas are the weaker party, and when they hear about an AO divorce, they generally blame the Alpha. This was the first time Jin Man had heard someone unconditionally defend an Alpha and offer to help him beat up an Omega. To say he wasn't touched would be a lie, but it was only a little touching.
Zhou Yu owed someone a favor, and he probably felt mostly guilty now.
Jin Man didn't expose the truth and said casually: "Okay, then next time he comes, you help me beat him harder."
Joking can make people feel better. Both of them laughed, diluting the heavy feeling in their hearts.
How many twists and turns are there in this matter? It is still unclear whether Zhou Yu was implicated because of himself or was simply unlucky.
The greatest luck is that things can be resolved well.
Zhou Yu had an accident in late August. By the time it was resolved, more than 20 days had passed since the start of the kindergarten school season. Jin Man had delayed a lot of things. The kindergarten teacher called to ask when the child would start school.
The children are still looking forward to it.
Children in the village either attend mixed-age classes in the next village or do not go to kindergarten, so being able to go to school in town is a very prestigious thing.
On the day of going to kindergarten, Jin Duoduo got up early and said goodbye to the chickens, ducklings and puppies at home.
Jin Man drove his second-hand Wuling and took him to the kindergarten gate.
The teacher in charge is a beta, very young and lively. She takes the child to the first grade class.
When Jin Man met the child's teacher for the first time, he was very polite, fearing that he would dislike him.
When Lu Zhi was in school, he was also worried about these things, anxious that the child might not be able to adapt.
Jin Man forgot what Lu Yanlin said at that time. The two seemed to have quarreled and didn't speak to each other.
Jin Man felt that no matter how busy Lu Yanlin was, he could not treat the two living people in the family as decorations. Raising children is not like growing flowers and vegetables. All you need is some sunlight and nutrients.
He doesn't have a good temper. When the two of them just got married and were not so humble yet, he would get stubborn and say whatever he wanted.
But when the child went to kindergarten, it was already the third year of their marriage. Jin Man was not as energetic as before and felt uneasy.
The two ignored each other and were in a cold war for more than a week. On the eighth day, Lu Yanlin took Jin Man to Lu Zhi's kindergarten and watched him quietly for the whole day.
The Lu family provides the children with the best resources. Small class sizes and a bilingual environment are the foundation. The teachers are well-paid, professional, and have good tempers. They guide the children very patiently, and the children adapt very well to the kindergarten.
The kindergarten in town is definitely not as good as Lu Zhi's private school. One teacher and a nanny have to take care of more than 30 children. You can imagine how hard it is, and they certainly can't take such detailed care.
Jin Man was a little worried. He made the bed for the child in the bedroom and put down the blanket and cushion.
There was a boy next to Jin Duoduo's bed, and there was a whale pillow on the bed, which was a limited edition worldwide.
Jin Manduo took a closer look, packed up his things and went to the office to get his child's school uniform and pick-up card.
He originally wanted to go around to the classroom to take a look, but then he remembered that people on the Internet said that the most annoying thing was the kind of parents who would pry open doors and windows, so he turned down the stairs and went out directly through the back door.
This busy work lasted the entire day. In the afternoon, when the children got home from school, Jin Man was still moving things. The boss counted slowly, so he had to wait patiently. His cell phone rang twice, but he didn't answer it.
After ordering the goods, he quickly called Teacher Li and asked her to let the child stay at the gate for a while.
Teacher Li's tone was not very good. After all, no one's time comes from the wind.
Jin Man hurried as fast as he could, but he was still more than half an hour late. When he arrived at the kindergarten, all the other children had been picked up and the entrance was empty.
He was afraid that Jin Duoduo would cry, so he walked to the guard post. Through the transparent glass window, he saw two little cat-like faces and a very familiar person.
Lu Yanlin was wearing a three-piece suit, a pure black vest, a white twill shirt, and dark blue trousers that made his legs look too long.
He held a box of torn cookies and sat on a bench, watching cartoons with the two children as if they were little emperors.
Jin Man's breath suddenly got stuck in his throat, and he felt it was a bit ridiculous.
He crossed his arms and didn't think about why Lu Yanlin and the child came here. Instead, he wondered why after the two of them separated, Lu Yanlin became more pleasing and considerate than when they were married. When he watched cartoons with the child, he behaved like a decent father.
Thinking about it this way, it’s a good thing for the two of them to get divorced.
He stood at the door, waiting for Lu Yanlin to look over. Although he knew what was going on, he still asked, "What are you doing here?"
Lu Yanlin took back the phones the two children were looking at, his face calm: "I was picking up the kids from school, and when he saw Duoduo wasn't picked up, he got scared, so he waited a little longer. I left when you came."
Jin Man was indeed not doing a good job in this matter. It was the child's first day in kindergarten and he was the first one to be picked up after school, but he was late.
"you……"
The security guard urged Jin Man to hand over the delivery card and sign, so Jin Man had to swallow what he wanted to say.
By the time he finished signing, Lu Yanlin was already standing outside the kindergarten, holding one child in his arms and holding another.
The two low-key luxury cars of the Lu family were parked next to the fried skewers stall. Lu Zhi didn't say a word the whole time. He kept looking at Jin Man with his dark eyes, looking very nervous.
Jin Duoduo was very happy on his first day of school today. He couldn't wait to pull out a piece of scribbled paper from his schoolbag and said, "Manman, Manman, look! The apple tree that the teacher with big eyes taught us to draw."
It was so dark that the painting couldn't even be seen as a tree.
Jin Man looked at it and said, "This color is so dark, it's amazing."
Duoduo is a generous child and didn't mention Jinman being late today at all.
Even when he saw Lu Zhi in class, he took the initiative to greet him. Lu Zhi had a cold face and didn't like to talk, so Jin Duoduo ran off to play with other children.
Lu Zhi's expression became more and more lost, and he held on to Lu Yanlin's tie tightly.
Dad can't call me dad anymore, but he doesn't want to call me uncle either.
Jin Man is not blind, how could he not see? He was a little angry and called Lu Yanlin a bastard. Why bring the child into their matter? It was not like they broke up peacefully, and they could still see each other's child.
Lu Zhi touched his schoolbag, got off Lu Yanlin, hesitated, holding a painting in his hand, and didn't dare to come over.
After a moment, he mustered up his courage, walked over to Jin Man, tugged at his clothes, and asked him, "Teacher also taught me to draw an apple tree today. Can I give this painting to you?"
Jin Duoduo tilted her head, glanced at the tree drawn by Lu Zhi, and exclaimed with a sense of happiness: "Manman, his drawing is so beautiful, so amazing."
Obviously, even if his hands are clumsy, it does not affect Duoduo's aesthetic taste.
Jin Man also squatted down, took the painting, nodded and said: "Yes, the painting is very beautiful, thank you Xiaozhi."
Lu Zhi blushed, wanting to laugh but not daring to, and his impression of Xiao Heidan was not so bad anymore.
