Chapter 148 Hello! Where is your captain's home?
Zhong Xuexi was sleeping soundly this time. She closed her eyes at nearly five o'clock. Now it was only seven o'clock and she couldn't get up at all.
"Shh——" Zhong Xueyuan is a light sleeper and would wake up reflexively at the slightest noise.
Seeing her daughter's well-behaved appearance, her heart softened, and she lowered her voice and said, "Your aunt has been asleep for a while, you guys play in the living room obediently, mom will get up now to make breakfast for you."
Zhong Niannian pressed her mother hard on the bed, "Mom, you go to sleep too. My brother and I can have the dumplings we made yesterday for breakfast!"
Her bright eyes twinkled, and she patted her chest and said confidently, "I can cook!"
Zhong Xueyuan was surprised, "Our Nian Nian is so good? She can even cook. Who taught you?"
Zhong Niannian shook her head and said, "I watched my grandma cook dumplings, and I think I can do it, too."
Li Guixiang values her grandchildren more than anything else. She would rather be tired herself than let the children suffer. Otherwise, Zhong Zhiyang would not have been spoiled by her like that.
"Cooking is not safe. The baby is still young. Let mom do it."
Zhong Xueyuan was worried about her daughter, so she still wanted to get up and do it herself.
At this time, a male voice came from outside the door, "I'll do it."
Looking around, the person standing at the door was Zhao Huaian, wearing a black windbreaker.
His voice was neither loud nor soft, just enough to wake Zhong Xuexi up.
The next second, Zhong Xuexi grabbed the pillow and threw it directly towards the door. She was so sleepy that she didn't even open her eyes and just threw it blindly.
Zhao Huaian quickly caught the pillow instead of hitting anyone. "I thought you were all awake... I was wrong, I was wrong. You go to sleep and I'll take care of the child!"
After saying that, he squatted down and waved to Zhong Niannian, "Come, come to your uncle."
As a result, he didn't get a hug from Zhong Niannian, but a pillow, which hit him on the head accurately this time.
He didn't get angry, just laughed and said, "I'll go cook dumplings!"
Zhong Niannian tilted her head and asked in confusion: "Why does Uncle Xiao Zhao say that he is my uncle?"
Zhong Xueyuan smiled without saying anything, waiting for Zhong Xuexi to answer herself.
After being disturbed by this, Zhong Xuexi's sleepiness had already disappeared by half, and her cheeks were even flushed. She buried her head in the quilt and replied fiercely: "Because he is thick-skinned!!!"
Zhong Niannian looked at her mother in confusion. Zhong Xueyuan rubbed her head and said softly, "Niannian, this is Uncle Zhao's first time coming home. He must be unable to find many things. You and your brother should help him. Mom and Auntie can sleep a little longer."
"good!"
The little girl agreed sweetly.
As soon as she left, Zhong Xueyuan returned to bed and tucked in the quilt for her sister. She said, "His temper has improved a lot now. I used to think he had a bad temper."
"It seems that love can really change a person."
Zhong Xueyuan was originally a little worried that the two of them would quarrel in the future, but from what happened just now, it was clear that Zhao Huaian clearly doted on his sister.
Even after being hit by the pillow twice, there was no anger on his face. Instead, his smile deepened, and the look he gave Zhong Xuexi was filled with doting.
Zhong Xuexi poked her head out from under the quilt, "Second sister, don't worry, even if he wants to fight with me, I'm not afraid of him!"
Zhong Xueyuan couldn't help laughing, and reached out her hand to touch her forehead, "You! Although it can be seen that he spoils you, you should also be careful. When you go to your husband's house in the future, you should restrain your temper. But you can't be too tolerant, otherwise people will think that we are easy to bully."
She was telling her sister about her experience.
Her mother had never taught her these things before. She had to endure all these things in the Ruan family. But before the divorce, she blindly tolerated them for the sake of face of both families and to not let her natal family worry about her. In the end, she received even more bullying from the Ruan family.
She still can't forget what her mother said.
"You're just a slut! Without our Ruan family, do you really think anyone will be willing to want you?" It was because of this sentence that Zhong Xueyuan made up her mind to divorce.
She was obviously the victim, who married into the Ruan family enduring humiliation and heavy burdens. But in their eyes, she was a slut. It was really ridiculous!
It was precisely because she married into the Ruan family that she wasted several years in the art troupe. Obviously, her life should have been infinitely brilliant.
It was supposed to be dancing under all the spotlights.
But she almost ended up becoming a shrew who only knew how to do housework. She was bullied and humiliated in various ways, and even her two children had to suffer with her.
Fortunately, she came out alive.
So now she knows that people cannot be too kind and must not be soft-hearted when it is time to fight back.
Zhong Xuexi caught a glimpse of sadness in her sister's eyes. She sat up from the bed, leaned over and hugged her, "Second sister, you suffered a lot in the past. As long as you are willing, we will make those bastards pay the price they deserve! You are not alone, we will always be behind you! We are your solid backing!"
When mentioning this, Zhong Xueyuan laughed and said, "It's too early to say this now."
"At least, I'll wait until the two children grow up a little bit."
She was afraid that Zhong Niannian and the others could not bear the fact that their father was a rapist.
Once this matter came to light, the abuse would definitely affect her two children. She would rather grit her teeth and swallow the grievances she had suffered over the years than let her children become the target of public criticism.
Zhong Xuexi had a different idea, "In fact, you underestimate Nian Nian. She is actually very thoughtful and sensible. If she really knew about this, she would definitely support you."
Zhong Xueyuan has seldom been with her children in recent years, so she doesn't know them as well as Zhong Xuexi.
In addition, Zhong Xuexi is an elementary school teacher herself, so she actually knows most of the personalities of children like this.
As for Zhong Siyu, please forgive her for her limited abilities.
The only person who can communicate with him is his sister.
"I am sorry for them. I couldn't give them a carefree childhood." Zhong Xueyuan lowered her eyelids, with red at the corners of her eyes.
Seeing that her sister was in a bad mood, Zhong Xuexi quickly stopped the topic and said, "Okay, okay, let's discuss this matter in detail. Let's sleep for a while and eat dumplings later!"
Zhong Xueyuan rubbed her eyes and sighed softly.
···
Not long after Lin Ziqiu and his friends arrived in the capital, Zhang Xiumei also brought Lin Xiaojun to Ankang Village.
The two of them came here on someone else's ox cart, which dropped them off at the village gate and then left.
Lin Xiaojun rubbed his hands. It was very cold outside. After all the journey, he felt his face was numb from the cold. "Mom, I'm cold and hungry. How long will it take to get there?"
Zhang Xiumei's condition was no better than his. She was also carrying two large bags. She took a breath and said, "We should be almost at your brother-in-law's house. Go ahead and ask for directions!"
Lin Xiaojun put his hands in his pockets and ran to the front happily. Two children about his age were squatting at the door of the house, pulling weeds.
"Hey! Where is your captain's home?"
