Chapter 45: A car for children
Chao Chao nodded, not quite understanding. The word "divorce" was still too unfamiliar to her.
But my mother said they were fine, so they must be fine. She felt relieved.
Seeing that they had almost finished talking, Song Zhen came over and said with a smile, "Chao Chao, aren't you worried now? Come on, grandma will take you downstairs to have some snacks. Aunt Zhao just said she made your favorite milk-flavored yam pancakes. Let's go by car."
"drive?"
Song Zhen pointed to the front. He Nanzhou had already pushed out a toy car, a small white car that was just big enough for two small children.
Chaochao widened his eyes. This car looked like the one his parents drove, only it was much smaller.
Song Zhen opened the car door for her, "Come on, get in."
Chaochao was a little excited. She glanced at her father and got into the car carefully, but she didn't know where to put her hands and feet for a moment.
He Nanzhou squatted beside her and taught her, "This is the steering wheel. If you want to go left, just turn it this way. If you want to go right, turn it that way. This is the brake. Step on it and the car will stop. Try it? Don't worry, Dad will be watching and won't let you get hit."
Chao Chao responded with some excitement. She could actually drive the same car as her parents. She looked so cool.
She lowered her head and touched the steering wheel, then carefully remembered what He Nanzhou said. After a while, she drove forward with trepidation in her heart.
The car really started to move, and she was startled, but it didn't seem very difficult. She went left and right as she wanted, and the movements were very smooth.
However, when she reached the stairs, she was stunned. How could she go down?
Song Zhen was right behind her, "Let's take the elevator."
Chaochao followed her into the elevator, quickly arrived downstairs, and went straight to the kitchen.
She felt it was novel and fun. With this car, wouldn't it be quick and convenient for her to go anywhere?
The Daqi children under the canopy were equally excited.
Seeing that toy car, few children could resist the temptation.
"That car is so fun, I wish I had one too."
"It turns out there are not only cars for adults, but also for children. And it looks so simple, even simpler than driving a donkey cart. I can drive it without any problem."
"Their house is so beautiful. The living room is so big, the kitchen is so big, everything is big. See, there is even a swing in the room. Her room is three times the size of mine."
"What is that milky yam cookie? I've never heard of it, but I know it's delicious as soon as I hear it."
There were even children from Shangliu Village who asked Lin Lan while sucking their fingers, "Sister Lin Lan, have you ever eaten it? What kind of little biscuit is that?"
Lin Lan was sitting at the door of her house holding her sister, basking in the sun and looking at the sky. Since they separated and moved out, their family had lived a comfortable and carefree life. The endless work seemed to have suddenly decreased a lot. It was the first time for her to bask in the sun so comfortably and without worries.
Looking at Chao Chao in the sky, Lin Lan's heart was filled with gratitude. She smiled and said, "Of course I haven't eaten it."
"Then, will Chaochao give you some?" another child nearby asked.
Nowadays, all the children in Shangliu Village like to come to Lin Lan. They all think that Chaochao has so many delicious foods now, and maybe one day she will quietly give some to her favorite sister Lin Lan, and then they may be able to get some.
Lin Lan didn't know whether to laugh or cry when she heard this. "Chao Chao is in the sky tent, far away from us. How can you give it to me?"
"But she is a fairy now. Maybe she will leave it by your bed when you are not paying attention at night. Sister Lin Lan, if that is the case, can you leave some for me to taste when I come over tomorrow? I can lick it if I want."
The other children's eyes lit up. Why didn't they think of this? They all turned their heads to look at Lin Lan, "We want to lick it, too."
Lin Lan: "..." You guys are really bold in thinking.
Especially when I saw Chaochao come to the kitchen and eat the milk-flavored yam pancakes, I was so envious.
The children kept swallowing their saliva. They knew it must be a delicacy just by looking at it, without having to eat it. Some younger children were already clamoring to their parents for one.
However, human joys and sorrows are not shared. Although the adults were also jealous of the little car and the little cake, they were more concerned about the divorce mentioned by Jian Yunsang.
"When they say divorce, they mean divorce by agreement, right?"
"So Miss Jane's parents have divorced? Even after the divorce, they still bought her such a big house for her to live in alone? How is that possible?"
"That's right, Miss Jian must be bragging. Why should a girl share the family property? Why would her stepfather and stepmother agree to it? It must be fake." Some people were extremely jealous.
"And this grandma left such a big room for a little girl. I don't know what she was thinking. Doesn't she have an older grandson in the family?"
"Look at how big their house is, they must be rich. My aunt is an official, so they must have plenty of money. What's wrong with leaving a big room for their daughter? The daughters of the wealthy families here have their own courtyards, which are much bigger than a room."
After seeing what Tianmu had seen so far, anyone with a little common sense would no longer think that this was the fairyland.
They realized that the people on the sky must be people living in another world, and must be very far away from them.
However, there is a small group of people who have been trying desperately to persuade them to believe that this is the fairyland, and the strongest proof is the existence of the sky curtain.
Without the magic of the gods, how could such a canopy be hung above everyone's head? Who among mortals could do it? And those immortal weapons, could it be that they were just dazzled by their eyes?
This statement caused many people to waver, and the idea of "divine punishment" showed signs of reviving again.
In Huaiping County, which is the center of the incident, Gao Hongfei clearly felt that something was wrong. It seemed that someone was inciting public opinion, and there were signs of chaos.
After Commander Liang Wei captures the three members of the Hu family and brings them back, he will have to have a good discussion with him.
With the arrival of the sky curtain, Gao Hongfei could no longer tell whether it was a blessing or a curse.
He sighed and couldn't help but look up again.
Chaochao had finished eating the milk-flavored yam biscuits. They were so fragrant and soft that she couldn't help shaking her little feet while eating them.
Song Zhen watched her with satisfaction from the side. The more he watched, the more delicious they became. He couldn't resist the temptation and ate two of them.
Just as she was about to eat the third one, she suddenly heard hurried footsteps from the living room.
Immediately afterwards, He Pu's unique voice came over, "Is that Chao Chao? I heard Chao Chao is back?"
