Chapter 196 A Crazy Idea
The old lady didn't ask any further questions. After all, Wang Dazhi's family affairs were his own business, and others didn't need to interfere too much.
Just then, Li Hongxing arrived. Looking at Zhou Fangfang, he said guiltily, "I'm sorry, this child is yours. I shouldn't have kept it for myself. How about we void our agreement, you take the child back, and we'll pretend today never happened..."
Li Hongxing was indeed a reasonable person. Before Zhou Fangfang could even say thank you, the old lady suddenly burst into tears: "You heartless wretch! I think you're deliberately trying to make me childless! You'll never have children again, what are you going to do then...?"
"If you don't want this child, you're forcing me to die. I'll die right now..."
"mom!"
Li Hongxing quickly stopped the old lady. He was born late in life; his mother was already over forty when he was born, so she cherished him very much. Moreover, he was the only son in the Li family, and now that this had happened, he was indeed unfilial.
Although he knew that Li's mother was putting on an act, Li Hongxing did not dare to act rashly.
He looked at Zhou Fangfang apologetically and said in a low voice, "Why don't you go back first? I'll send the child back after I've calmed them down."
Wang Dazhi said directly, "Brother Hongxing, you don't need to worry about her. She's just lost her mind and talking nonsense. Let's pretend that today's events never happened. I keep my word. Since I gave this child to you, he's yours. Don't say things like that again."
"Besides, I have no feelings for this child. He's just keeping me around, which is another mouth to feed. Even if I don't give the child to you, I'm planning to give him to someone else."
Wang Dazhi completely despised his son.
He disliked Zhou Fangfang and his son.
Zhou Fangfang married into the Wang family to serve Wang Dazhi's mother. The child was conceived unexpectedly. At that time, they did not want the child and felt that Zhou Fangfang's pregnancy would cause more trouble.
Therefore, she had to work even during her pregnancy. During her postpartum period, her mother-in-law nagged her for being a spendthrift because she ate a few extra pumpkins.
After she gave birth to her son, no one liked her or her son. She had to work and raise her son all by herself, and her son suffered a lot with her.
Sometimes, she thought she shouldn't have given birth to such a child. After all, bringing him into this world meant suffering, and now Wang Dazhi was even going to give his son away.
A wave of despair washed over Zhou Fangfang. She stood up from the ground and asked Wang Dazhi with a disheveled expression, "Are you really not going to want your son anymore?"
Even tigers don't eat their cubs; she truly couldn't understand why Wang Dazhi would be so cruel to his son.
Wang Dazhi looked at her with disdain: "No."
Why would he want a son born to a village woman?
He and Zhou Fangfang had been together for a long time, before he joined the army and before his father became a political commissar. Otherwise, he would never have fallen for such a woman. But now, only a few years later, his father has been demoted.
Could it be that Zhou Fangfang is a jinx, specifically sent to bring him bad luck?
Zhou Fangfang looked at Li Hongxing and asked, "Do you like him?"
Li Hongxing paused for a moment, then honestly replied, "Yes, I like them. Kids are so cute, I really like kids."
As he spoke, he patted the little child's head.
He really likes children, and Zhou Fangfang's son is very cute. He is just three years old, which is the cutest age for a baby. Although he is a little thin, he has big and bright eyes.
The little boy didn't understand anything; he tugged at Zhou Fangfang's sleeve.
Li Hongxing said awkwardly, "How about I take you to fly a kite?"
The little boy let go of Zhou Fangfang's sleeve and blinked, asking, "A kite?"
"Yes, are you going or not?"
The little boy didn't speak, but his eyes lit up as he looked at Zhou Fangfang.
Zhou Fangfang wiped away his tears and said, "You go with Uncle Li."
The little boy left happily. He used to envy the children in the village who flew kites, but he could only watch from the sidelines because his family didn't have the money to buy him a kite.
After Li Hongxing took the child away, Zhou Fangfang watched their retreating figures and fell silent.
That was the end of it.
She was also taken home by Wang Dazhi.
As soon as they got back, Wang Dazhi locked her in the room. The man pointed at her and started cursing, "I bought you a ticket to go back tomorrow, so get out of here tomorrow!"
"You've completely disgraced me. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have become a laughing stock."
Zhou Fangfang remained silent throughout Wang Dazhi's nagging.
Her eyes were extremely vacant.
Over the years, she had become accustomed to the insults. Although she rarely saw Wang Dazhi, Wang Dazhi's mother had insulted her in the same way.
No matter how well she did those jobs, Wang Dazhi's mother could always find an excuse. She simply used Zhou Fangfang as a venting point and insulted her at will.
Wang Dazhi dislikes his son, and his mother-in-law dislikes him too, so they often verbally abuse their son.
Although her son is only three years old, he understands everything. He rarely speaks and is afraid of making mistakes, but today she found that her son was very happy and had more smiles on his face.
The Li family actually treated their son very well. Although Li's mother was very fierce, she was willing to give her son such expensive candy.
Li Hongxing is handsome and upright, and seems to be a good person. He is even willing to fly kites with his son.
When her son wanted to fly a kite back home, she originally wanted to make one for him, but her mother-in-law scolded her for it.
The Li family is much more reasonable, and they are really good to their son.
If she continues to take her son back, he will continue to suffer in the future. Moreover, she is afraid that she cannot protect him. Wang Dazhi does not like his son and may abandon him again at any time.
At that moment, a crazy idea popped into Zhou Fangfang's mind.
Perhaps letting Li Hongxing raise his son is a good decision.
As long as the Li family treats their son well, he can grow up healthily.
Li Hongxing is clearly much better than Wang Dazhi.
Since that's the case, let Li Hongxing be the son's father.
However, she couldn't leave her son.
The news spread quickly.
When Zhang Weihong visited Shen Zhixia, she told Shen Zhixia about what had happened that day: "That girl is so pitiful. She's Wang Dazhi's wife, but Wang Dazhi won't admit it. How can he talk such a bad word about his own wife? I want to help her, but I don't know how."
Shen Zhixia asked in surprise, "He gave his son away? That's his own son!"
