"Dajun, Mom's still steaming rice in the pot inside. We need to go back, or the pot might burn down and the house might catch fire. Come on, let's go back quickly!"
After saying that, without giving Dajun a chance to speak, Dajun's mother picked him up and left.
"I suddenly remembered that my husband said he would be leaving get off work early tonight, so I need to hurry home and prepare dinner!"
"Niu Niu, didn't you just say you were hungry? Come on, Mom will take you to buy some sugar pancakes!"
"Come here! Can't you see everyone else has left? What are you still doing there? All you do is play all day. Go home now!"
"Um, sis, I just remembered I need to get something done..."
In short, the military wives scattered like birds and beasts, each with a seemingly legitimate reason, as if there were some truth to it.
Is it really such a coincidence?
If it was a coincidence once, could it be a coincidence a second time?
Moreover, this time it was much more obvious than the first time. These military wives simply didn't want to act anymore; it was clearly written that they were hiding from Mo Youyou and her son.
In the blink of an eye, the once bustling courtyard was left with only Liu Shengrui, who had just arrived, and Mo Youyou, who was furious with the military wives.
"What do you all mean? What do you all mean?!" Mo Youyou stomped her foot.
They must be treating her like a fool!
Xiao Rui had just arrived when these kids, who were playing happily, were immediately taken away by their parents. The meaning of that is obvious!
She wouldn't let her own child play with Liu Shengrui.
But on what grounds?
"A bunch of bastards, ganging up to bully our Xiao Rui! You're all adults, how can you be so shameless?!" Mo Youyou cursed. She really wanted to rush up and fight these people, but unfortunately, they had all run away, and because there were too many of them, she didn't know which one to keep an eye on.
"I'm so angry! I'm so angry!"
Not only was Mo Youyou angry, but Liu Shengrui was also very unhappy.
Although he couldn't understand what these military wives were up to, he could sense that they didn't want to play along with him.
Why not play with him?
"bad!"
Although Liu Shengrui is already one and a half years old, his language skills are not very good. His ability to express himself is no different from that of a toddler who is only six months old and just learning to speak. He can only use some simple words to express his emotions.
"bad!"
Liu Shengrui pouted, feeling angry as he watched the group of children leaving.
Just then, a military wife was carrying her child away. In her haste, she dropped the child's toys on the ground and didn't even dare to stop to pick them up—she was afraid that if she was a step too slow, the child would suffer at Liu Shengrui's hands.
"You're so mean!" Liu Shengrui shouted, kicking the abandoned toy hard.
"Bad guy!"
"You bad guy!"
Not satisfied with just one kick, Liu Shengrui kicked again and again, each kick harder than the last, as if he wanted to vent all his anger on the act of kicking the toy.
"bad--"
Seeing her son angry and aggrieved, Mo Youyou quickly squatted down to comfort him.
“Don’t be angry, Xiao Rui. Our Xiao Rui is the best and most well-behaved. These little things don’t understand anything. It’s not that they don’t want to play with us, it’s that we don’t want to play with them. Our Xiao Rui only plays with outstanding and capable people and ignores them!” Mo Youyou said.
"bad!"
"bad!"
Liu Shengrui couldn't understand his mother's words of advice and comfort at all. He kept kicking the toys on the ground and cursing those people as bad.
Mo Youyou felt heartbroken watching this.
At that moment, she truly hated those military wives. It was one thing if they had grievances against her, but why did they treat her son like that?
Liu Shengrui is only a year and a half old. What did he do wrong that made them gang up on him and make him unhappy?
Mo Youyou was completely baffled.
"That's awful!" Liu Shengrui was still cursing, pointing in the direction the group had left.
"Xiao Rui, don't be angry, it's not worth it. Mom will play with you, let's go home and play slowly, don't stoop to their level," Mo Youyou said, quickly picking up her son and heading straight home.
"Bang--"
As soon as she got home, Mo Youyou slammed the door shut with a deafening roar.
"What's wrong now?" Liu Dekai asked, puzzled. He glanced at Mo Youyou and Liu Shengrui and noticed that Mo Youyou's expression seemed a bit off. "What happened?"
"What happened?" Mo Youyou sneered, speaking in a mocking tone, "Good news, great news! Your own son has been ostracized by those military wives and children in the compound. Are you satisfied now?!"
Liu Dekai fell silent instantly. What did he mean by "satisfied"?
He never said he hoped his son would be bad; this is simply a fabricated charge.
It was Mo Youyou who forced it on him.
Liu Dekai originally wanted to ask a few more questions about the specifics of the situation, but seeing Mo Youyou's attitude, he simply decided not to.
Let her be crazy if she wants to be.
Zhang Cuihua heard the commotion and quickly came out of the kitchen. She saw her beloved grandson pouting and standing with his hands on his hips, looking very unhappy. Her son and daughter-in-law also seemed to be sulking.
"Xiao Rui, come here, let Grandma hold you!" Zhang Cuihua picked up Liu Shengrui and then asked the two of them, "You two should talk things out properly, don't argue all the time!"
"Who wants to argue with him?" Mo Youyou crossed her arms, as if she wasn't the one who had been being sarcastic just now.
Liu Dekai: "..."
Okay, then shut him up!
"Why are those military wives and children outside bullying Xiao Rui?" Zhang Cuihua pressed, concerned but unable to bear seeing her grandson suffer even the slightest injustice.
"Hmph, don't even mention it! I had just taken Xiao Rui there when they all made excuses to leave. One minute they said there was still rice steaming on the stove at home, the next they said their husbands were coming home early today, and then they said they had to take the kids to buy something. It was just such a coincidence!"
"If we don't go, they'll be fine, having a good time. But as soon as we arrive, Xiao Rui has barely walked over, and look at their attitude, they'd like they could just grab their child and run away, as if Xiao Rui were some kind of monster. It's infuriating! They have absolutely no manners or upbringing!"
Mo Youyou grumbled and cursed, her heart filled with hatred for these military wives.
If last time she had a vague suspicion that she might have offended them, after this incident, Mo Youyou was certain that these military wives did it on purpose!
As for whether there is a grudge or if Su Yueya gossiped about it last time, it's hard to say for now.
"What?! How could they do this?!" Zhang Cuihua was furious.
Fortunately, she wasn't there at the time; if she had, she would definitely have demanded an explanation from those military wives.
Who can not understand the meaning behind this subtle avoidance?
"These military wives always act so warm and friendly, like they're so kind. They help out here and there, but how do they treat our Xiao Rui like this? They're so hypocritical!"
