"Mom, are you tired? Let me help you."
Gu Yanli was a sensitive little guy. He clearly felt that his mother was different. Although her tone of voice was as cold as usual, he felt that his mother was particularly gentle today.
So he was a little braver than usual and offered to help.
On weekdays, when his mother was busy, he was always scared and afraid of being beaten.
Li Qingyun originally wanted to tell him to go find some friends to play with by himself, after all, children of this age are at the age when they can be naughty. But when the words came to her lips, she remembered that every time he went out, he was excluded and insulted by other children, and over time he didn't like to go out anymore.
Ultimately, it was all because of Li Zhaodi. Her behavior of refusing to marry and using her husband's family's money to support her own family made the villagers avoid her. There were also a lot of rumors, which also affected the children.
Eat your food one bite at a time and walk one step at a time.
Li Qingyun would definitely not let herself be in this embarrassing situation forever.
"Then you pull this end."
Li Qingyun handed one end of the clothes to Dabao, and pulled the other end and twisted it hard. The water on the clothes flowed down. Dabao thought it was fun and started to twist it hard. The water splashed on his body and felt cool and comfortable.
The mother and son used the same method to wring out the water from a basin of clean clothes, and then hung them out to dry together.
Dabao never knew that working could be so joyful, his big, bright eyes narrowed with a smile.
Li Qingyun also laughed and raised her hand to touch Dabao's hair.
"Silly boy, you must be tired. Go into the house and find some clean clothes. By the way, check if your brother has peed. If he has, change his diaper. Mom will boil some water to give you a bath. You look so dirty, as if you crawled out of a pile of ashes." After saying this, she clapped her hands in disgust.
Dabao agreed with a sigh and happily rushed into the house to get clothes, like a little cannonball.
Li Qingyun boiled a large pot of water and added cold water to fill a large basin. It would be enough to have a slightly warm bath in the summer. If the well water was not too cold, there would be no need to add hot water.
Li Qingyun washed Dabao from head to toe, and finally washed him clean until his skin was almost peeling off.
It was summer, I was tired and hot, and I was sweating all over.
The mother and son worked together to give the second baby a bath. The second baby had so much fun playing in the water that he didn't want to get up.
After sending the eldest child to take a nap, Li Qingyun secretly mixed some milk powder for the second child, and the little guy fell asleep after drinking it.
Putting him next to his brother and looking at the two brothers sleeping soundly, Li Qingyun, a first-time mother, felt an indescribable sense of accomplishment.
There was a clock at home that Gu Tingzhou had brought back. After taking care of the two brothers, Li Qingyun saw that it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon. She was tired and sleepy. She used the remaining water in the pot to wash herself briefly in the kitchen, then lay down on the bed and fell asleep with the children.
She didn't know that Gu Tingzhou, who was far away in the army, also had a small problem.
Gu Tingzhou had a dream in which someone asked him what wish he wanted to fulfill.
He has everything he needs in his life, fame, wealth, and status. He only regrets not raising his two children well, and feels he owes them so much. If he were to fulfill any wish, he would want to start from scratch, spend time with and take good care of his two children, and give them a happy family environment.
When he woke up, he found himself back in time thirty years ago.
At this time, Dabao was still a child over four years old, and Erbao was only five months old. His ex-wife had not reached that stage, so there was still time for everything.
He had never been superstitious, but for the first time he thanked the gods and Buddhas in his heart for giving him the opportunity to start over.
Fifty-five-year-old Gu Tingzhou has long shed his immaturity and become a mature and steady man.
As for his ex-wife, because he was dumped on her and she and her family were causing trouble, he had always been indifferent to her and never cared about her. When he first learned that she had been deceived by human traffickers and died in an accident, he felt deeply disgusted and relieved as if he had gotten rid of a burden.
Later, after going through a lot, he began to reflect on himself and felt pity for this poor woman. She had never been loved or cared for in her life, so if others showed a little kindness to her, she would rush into the fire without hesitation.
Looking back on the past, although she had many faults, such as being selfish, greedy, and profit-driven, she was still the biological mother of two children. If I had been nicer to her and given her more guidance, things wouldn't have turned out like this in the end.
He decided in his heart that for the sake of his children, he would pay more attention to his wife and try his best to guide her to be a qualified mother and wife. If she was really hopeless, he would have no choice but to cut the Gordian knot and choose divorce.
But he would never choose to remarry. Even if he retired, he would stay with his children and would never abandon them again.
Thinking of this, he couldn't wait to see his two sons. Erbao was only five months old now, and it was the time for fun. He almost missed all of the children's childhood.
"Tingzhou, you finally woke up. How is it? Does the wound still hurt?" When Gu Tingzhou was lost in thought, a man in military uniform pushed the door open.
The time when Gu Tingzhou was reborn happened to be the time when he was injured during a mission in his previous life. When he woke up, he was lying on the hospital bed. He had to ask the nurse to roughly understand the current time and situation.
"It's okay, not that squeamish." Gu Tingzhou answered naturally.
The man's name is Jiang Fan. He has been his good friend for a long time. They were also close friends in the previous life. Thinking of what Jiang Fan's family had experienced in the previous life, he sighed.
"Tingzhou, I want to solemnly apologize to you. I'm sorry, I was too reckless and caused you to suffer such serious injuries while saving me. Please feel free to ask for anything you want, and I will try my best to do everything I can." Jiang Fan said sincerely.
This time, the two of them led a team on a mission together. Jiang Fan was too aggressive and almost fell into a trap. At the critical moment, Gu Tingzhou saved Jiang Fan's life, but the bullet landed on his own leg.
Now that the shrapnel has just been removed, his calf still hurts a little, but it is still tolerable for him.
After listening to Jiang Fan's words, Gu Tingzhou thought for a moment and said, "I do have something I need your help with. I want to be discharged from the hospital and return to my hometown to recuperate. The regiment should grant me a long vacation for this injury, and I want to go back to see my wife and children. However, my current condition is definitely not convenient for me to take the train. Could you please help me arrange a car?"
Jiang Fan is a true second-generation red. His family is powerful and wealthy, so it is no problem for him to arrange a car to send someone off.
"It's no problem to arrange a car, but you just had surgery. You'd better wait until the doctor agrees to discharge you from the hospital. What if the wound gets infected and you don't want to keep your leg? You don't want your career to end here, do you?" Jiang Fan advised earnestly.
Gu Tingzhou pondered for a moment, thinking that there was no rush in the next one or two days, and that things like writing reports would also take time to deal with, so he agreed.
