Zhao Lanlan had a beautiful idea, and the key was that Wang Xuebing was young and looked gentle, so she fell in love with him at first sight.
But she liked him, but Wang Xuebing was not very interested.
"Comrade Zhao, we just met for the first time today. I think it would be better for you to call me Comrade Wang!" Wang Xuebing frowned and corrected him directly.
He and Zhao Lanlan had known each other for less than an hour. They sat on a stone bench in the park for a while and chatted about their respective situations. Then they met Liu Meiyu. It had only been a short while and the girl called him like that. Wang Xuebing thought it was very inappropriate.
Seeing the dissatisfaction expressed on the man's face, Zhao Lanlan blushed and bit her lip angrily. She lowered her head, which was uncharacteristic of hers, and no longer rushed towards Liu Meiyu with her weird temper like a cannon.
Looking at the atmosphere between Zhao Lanlan and Wang Xuebing, Liu Meiyu guessed that the two were most likely on a blind date.
Ever since Zhao Lanlan caused big news on the island by pursuing Vice-President Deng, was talked to by the leaders, and was asked to write a self-criticism, and almost lost her job, the girl has been much more restrained in the supply and marketing cooperative. At least she doesn't dare to be impatient and sneer at the sisters-in-law on the island anymore, and she doesn't even dare to drag her feet and shirk her duties when asked to do something.
Sometimes Liu Meiyu went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things. Although the people still looked as if they didn't like her, at least they didn't dare to throw the things on the counter when they took things for her.
"Comrade Liu Meiyu, have you given birth to your children? Triplets?" The man saw the triplets struggling with an ant on the ground, and guessed that they were most likely Liu Meiyu's children. He couldn't help but be surprised.
It’s only been a short time, and she already has children, but I’m still going on blind dates.
"Yes," Liu Meiyu said with a smile, "He is just one year old, so I took him out to the park."
"That's great, I'm so happy for you!" Although Wang Xuebing felt a little sad, he was also really happy for Liu Meiyu. The three chubby boys were obviously well fed. Moreover, although Liu Meiyu had given birth to children, she didn't change at all. She even looked better than before, with a softer look between her eyebrows.
"Thank you," Liu Meiyun smiled at the person, glanced at Zhao Lanlan who was trying to be quiet, and asked, "Are you and Comrade Zhao on a blind date?"
"Yes!" Although Wang Xuebing was embarrassed, he still nodded and admitted: "We just met and are still in the stage of getting to know each other. What a coincidence, you and Comrade Zhao also know each other!"
"Well, I know him, but not very familiar with him." Liu Meiyu said in a light tone.
Zhao Lanlan, who was standing by, saw Liu Meiyu saying this. Although there was nothing wrong with it, she just didn't like her indifferent attitude.
Wang Xuebing did not sense any awkward atmosphere between the two of them. He just chatted with Liu Meiyu in a good mood and reminisced about the past. He also told her the address of his factory and told her to come to the No. 3 National Cotton Factory to find him if she had any problems. After a few polite words, he left with Zhao Lanlan.
After all, his main purpose today was to go on a blind date, and Comrade Zhao was still waiting for him. No matter how good Liu Meiyu was, she belonged to someone else. Her three children were already one year old, and it was a military marriage.
As early as on that train, after Wang Xuebing met Lu Changzheng, he gave up all other thoughts about Liu Meiyu.
Who told him to be self-aware?
On a bench in a corner of the park, Wang Xuebing and Zhao Lanlan sat obediently, continuing their blind date which had not yet ended.
"Comrade Zhao, I'm usually busy with work, so after work I like to relax and write at home. What about you? Do you have any hobbies?"
Although Wang Xuebing doesn't have any feelings about this blind date yet, he is taking the initiative to try to learn more about her.
"We are very busy at the supply and marketing cooperative. I have to help my aunt take care of the children when I go home, so I don't have much time to do anything else." Zhao Lanlan really couldn't think of any hobbies other than chatting with people, so she changed the subject and asked, "Comrade Wang, how did you and Liu Meiyu know each other? I'm very curious, can you tell me about it?"
There is no doubt that Zhao Lanlan likes Wang Xuebing, but she is unhappy because the man she likes is actually related to Liu Meiyu.
Every time she had something to do with Liu Meiyu, she would feel uncomfortable and like something bad was going to happen. Last time, she asked her to borrow her white sweater but she refused. Zhao Lanlan always felt that it was because she didn't dress decent enough last time that Deputy Director Deng didn't like her at first sight. So this time, she shamelessly asked Bai Ting to borrow this aqua blue sweater to wear.
Wang Xuebing frowned: "This has nothing to do with our blind date, right?"
"I'm just afraid you'll be cheated!"
"Being cheated?"
"Yes, although Liu Meiyun and I are not very familiar with each other, we live in the same place. She is with the army on the island, so I know her a little bit."
Wang Xuebing's eyebrows furrowed even deeper. He glanced at Zhao Lanlan and said, "Comrade Zhao, Comrade Liu Meiyun and I only met once on the train. We are just ordinary friends at most. Why do you think she would lie to me?"
"Not now, but who knows what will happen in the future!" Zhao Lanlan said seriously, "Brother Wang, I am really kindly reminding you that Liu Meiyu's family situation is not good. With her background, she is not worthy of coming to our island to follow the army. I don't know how she hooked up with Captain Lu. I heard that Captain Lu was transferred to our island because she offended her family. You can imagine how scheming a woman like this would be. If you get close to her, you don't know when she will trick you!"
When Wang Xuebing heard Zhao Lanlan say this about Liu Meiyu, he just felt disgusted. It was not because of anything about Liu Meiyu, but because he really didn't like talking about people behind their backs. Besides, he and Liu Meiyu had only met twice, and she just ignored him. She was married with children, her husband was so outstanding, and her family was harmonious. To her, he might not even be an ordinary friend. What could he have that was worth being deceived by?
However, after all, this was a blind date introduced by the elders in the family. Although Wang Xuebing had a bad impression of this girl and even felt a little disgusted, he was not prepared to refute her. He just said, "Comrade Zhao, thank you for your reminder. I will consider it carefully. It's getting late today. Don't you have to go back to the island? I'll take you to the dock."
"Ah" Zhao Lanlan didn't react immediately. It had only been a short while, why did they send her back? She said without caring about her modesty, "I took a day off today. There's no need to rush back."
"But I remembered that I have something to do later, so I'm a little anxious. I'll take you directly to the pier to take the boat." Wang Xuebing glanced at his watch. "Going there now will just be enough time to catch the next one."
"Brother Wang, what's the urgent matter?" Zhao Lanlan asked anxiously.
"It's just a personal matter." Wang Xuebing frowned.
Although Zhao Lanlan was not happy in her heart, seeing that Wang Xuebing looked unhappy, and because she really liked him, she didn't care and followed him out of the park, letting the man take her to the pier.
After buying the ticket and getting on the boat, Zhao Lanlan was just about to wave goodbye to the man at the railing, but when she looked up, there was no sign of him!
"Didn't you take leave to go on a blind date? Why are you back so soon?"
Zhao Chunmei was dusting the glass cabinet of the supply and marketing cooperative with a feather duster. When she looked up, she saw her niece who had just gone out in the morning and had returned before noon.
"Humph, it's still that Liu Meiyun!"
The more Zhao Lanlan thought about it along the way, the angrier she became. Before she met Liu Meiyu, she and Wang Xuebing were getting along just fine. But ever since she had met Liu Meiyu in the pavilion in the park, Wang Xuebing's attitude towards her had changed.
"What does this have to do with Captain Lu's wife? Her whole family went out to the city today. You can go find your relatives, but why do you always blame others?" Zhao Chunmei's patience with her niece was almost exhausted.
Ever since the last time they watched a movie, when Zhao Lanlan got into a fight with someone on the playground and was criticized by her superiors and asked to write a self-criticism, Zhao Chunmei no longer treated her niece as her own daughter as before.
The main reason was that her husband was implicated and was reprimanded by his leader, and her niece was so stubborn and refused to change despite so many complaints. Zhao Chunmei became a little discouraged and wanted to marry her niece off as soon as possible.
But it is really difficult for Zhao Lanlan to marry into a good family on this island. After all, after what happened last time, it would be good if no one talks about her behind her back. Who would be willing to introduce Zhao Lanlan to a partner?
Bai Ting, who had always been on good terms with Zhao Lanlan, found a job for Zhao Lanlan outside the island with good conditions. I heard that she could be a formal worker in a factory, and her relative was the factory director. It was estimated that she would be able to get a small position within two years.
"Oh, if I hadn't run into her, I definitely wouldn't have come back so early!" Zhao Lanlan picked up the teacup and took two gulps before telling Zhao Chunmei about her encounter with Liu Meiyu in the park.
"How could it be such a coincidence? Isn't Captain Lu's wife from Shanghai?" Zhao Chunmei was also surprised to hear this coincidence. She remembered that Liu Meiyu's family was from Shanghai and she had always been in the art troupe. How could she know a formal worker in a local factory in Liaoning Province?
"It seemed that they met on the train." Zhao Lanlan thought about it all the way back and still felt that there must be something between Wang Xuebing and Liu Meiyu. Otherwise, why would Wang Xuebing suddenly turn hostile and leave after she said a few words to Liu Meiyu? He was so protective of her, there must be something unclear!
"That's possible." Zhao Chunmei was confused by her niece. She slapped Zhao Lanlan on the forehead and said, "Why do you care how they met? The man obviously didn't like you. Why are you bringing up Liu Meiyu?"
"It's her!" Zhao Lanlan was angry. "If they didn't know each other, and if I hadn't run into her in the park today, would I have come back so early? She would have definitely taken me to a state-owned hotel for dinner or something. If she hadn't allowed you to drink, my uncle would have had to prepare my dowry right away!"
The corners of Zhao Chunlan's mouth twitched. She had mentioned before that she would help her elder brother prepare dowry for Zhao Lanlan in the future. But when Zhao Lanlan said it so naturally, she felt uneasy.
Zhao Lanlan, who didn't notice Zhao Chunmei's unhappiness, was still thinking to herself. She not only figured out that Wang Xuebing and Liu Meiyu might have had something going on, but also figured out that if she could marry Wang Xuebing, her life would definitely be better than Liu Meiyu's in the future. Working in a big factory in the city would be better than staying on this island for the rest of her life.
"Aunt, I like the guy Sister Bai Ting introduced to me this time. I don't care, I must marry in the city and leave this broken island!" Zhao Lanlan pulled her aunt's sleeve and started to act coquettishly.
Although Zhao Chunmei was volatile, she had become immune to the same tricks after being used so many times. She slapped the man away, walked directly behind the counter, and said impatiently, "It's up to you. You can marry wherever you want. I won't get involved in your affairs. Just don't cause trouble for me and your uncle. If you still haven't found a marriage next year, you can go back to your hometown to look for one. I've told your parents to find a live-in son-in-law."
"I don't want to come to your house!" Zhao Lanlan was angry, "Only poor and useless people come to your house!"
"Then go find someone promising yourself!" Zhao Chunmei threw the chicken feather duster away, her face looking ugly.
There was no other reason, it was just because Zhao Chunmei's eldest brother, Zhao Lanlan's father, also came to live with the family. But Zhao Lanlan's grandparents were kind and willing to let Zhao Lanlan take his father's surname, saying that after the next baby was a son, she could take Zhao Lanlan's mother's surname. As a result, her sister-in-law's second baby was lost due to the famine, and she never got pregnant again.
Zhao Lanlan curled her lips, knowing that she had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly put on a serious face and tried to coax Zhao Chunmei for a while, but this time it didn't work for a long time. She lost her patience and turned around to run to Bai Ting's house to return the sweater.
"Is there such a coincidence?"
Bai Ting, who was about to rush home to cook lunch after class at noon, was busy with her work. When she heard Zhao Lanlan talk about how she met Wang Xuebing and Liu Meiyu at a blind date today, she also felt amazed.
"Humph, Sister Bai Ting, you didn't see the look in Brother Wang's eyes when he looked at Liu Meiyu. I think they must have been together before!"
"That's not enough, right? Didn't Liu Meiyun come to Liaoning Province to join the army? As for Wang Xuebing, my aunt said that he has been studying and working in Liaoning Province since graduation. I haven't heard that he has joined the army or been to Shanghai."
"Who knows! Wasn't Liu Meiyu a member of the art troupe before? Maybe she had performed at a nearby military unit and we met on the way, or someone else introduced her to her. Anyway, I think Wang Xuebing must have lied. They must have met more than once." Zhao Lanlan was determined. "You didn't see Wang Xuebing's expression at the time. I just said a few words about Liu Meiyu and was worried that he was deceived, but he immediately lost face for me! If he didn't like Liu Meiyu, would he protect her so much! She's already married and has three children!"
After hearing the whole story, Bai Ting paused what she was doing, frowned and looked at Zhao Lanlan with disapproval: "Lanlan, if you want to go on a blind date, just go on a blind date. Why do you mention Liu Meiyun in front of others and say bad things about her? You will definitely leave a bad impression on others!"
"No matter what happened to them before, Liu Meiyun is married now, and it's a military marriage. Even if they had something going on before, they can't do anything about it in the future. If you really like Wang Xuebing, you should get along with him openly and honestly. But now you turn around and say bad things about Liu Meiyun. He must think you have bad morals and like to gossip about her behind her back!"
Although it is true, Bai Ting thought, this girl Zhao Lanlan, it was only after getting to know her that she realized that she was not very smart, had no tact, was stubborn and would offend people whenever she opened her mouth.
If she didn't have a good aunt and uncle, she might still be farming in her hometown countryside.
Even though she looked down on her a little, she had known this girl for a long time after all. Moreover, Zhao Lanlan was arrogant to others, but she was very obedient to what she said. It was precisely because of this that Bai Ting was willing to keep in touch with her.
"Ah, Sister Bai Ting, what should we do?" Zhao Lanlan's stubbornness was suddenly twisted by Bai Ting, and regret gradually appeared on her face, "Is Wang Xuebing going to stop associating with me because I said bad things about him? But I was not wrong, that Liu Meiyu must have used some tricks to marry Captain Lu, otherwise what else could she rely on? Who would be interested in her family's conditions!"
Bai Ting did not refute this point.
Ever since Secretary Sun came last time, the story of Captain Lu and Liu Meiyu suddenly spread on the island. The fact that Captain Lu, in order to marry Liu Meiyu, abandoned his childhood sweetheart who was a good match for him and ignored his family's opposition and secretly married Liu Meiyu became the topic of discussion on the island for a long time.
Bai Ting had also heard this story, but she didn't know how much of it was true or false.
But ever since this story came out, she no longer viewed Liu Meiyun as innocently as before.
"Don't worry about her for now. Think about yourself first. I asked my aunt to introduce you to Wang Xuebing, who has the best conditions. If you miss this opportunity, I don't know where you will find him in the future."
"What should we do?" Zhao Lanlan was anxious.
Especially since her aunt just told her to go back to her hometown to get married, she didn't want to go back to the countryside.
"Don't you know Comrade Ren Wang's work address? If you are not busy at the supply and marketing cooperative during the day, go out more often, explain things to him, and get along well with him. If you develop feelings for him and can keep him by your side, then it won't be too early to get married!"
The only good solution Bai Ting could think of for Zhao Lanlan was to take the initiative.
Otherwise, one is on the island and the other is in the city. The man already doesn't have a good impression of Zhao Lanlan. If he doesn't take the initiative, his chances will be lost.
"But...I also followed your initiative last time, but in the end they all blamed me!" Zhao Lanlan now feels a little shadowed.
Although she felt that what Bai Ting said was correct, in the end things got out of hand and she almost lost her job.
"The last time was on our island, and Deputy Colonel Deng has a special status. You blocked him in the dormitory and delayed his training. This is definitely not right. I just asked you to be more proactive, but I didn't teach you to be so proactive. Besides, this time Wang Xuebing was working in a cotton spinning factory, and his uncle was the factory director. Who dared to talk about him behind his back? You are a well-dressed girl, and you go to wait for people to get off work every now and then, in front of so many factory employees. Men are all very proud. Haven't you heard that it takes a lot for a girl to chase a boy? As long as it's not out of line, it's a normal stage of courtship between men and women. What can a factory say about you? The people on the island can't see it either."
Bai Ting's mouth moved faster than her brain, and she instilled a lot of ideas into Zhao Lanlan's stubborn head, waiting for people to slowly figure it out.
"Sister Bai Ting, I think what you said makes a lot of sense!" Zhao Lanlan thought about it for a while and felt that Bai Ting was amazing and her ideas were always different from others.
In order to catch Wang Xuebing, a high-quality target, Zhao Lanlan decided to give it another try!
When Sun Aiguo entered the house, he saw Zhao Lanlan leaving his home, so he frowned and asked his wife Bai Ting: "What did you say to Comrade Zhao again?"
"Sun Aiguo, what's wrong with you?" Bai Ting threw the spatula in her hand into the pot and said unhappily, "You question me as soon as you come back. What do you think of me? I need your consent before I can say anything to Zhao Lanlan!"
"I'm not questioning you," Sun Aiguo said in a slower voice, explaining to his wife, "I'm just asking you to stop saying those nonsense and weird things to Comrade Zhao. Look at how much noise you made. Aren't you harming him?"
Sun Aiguo didn't know why his wife sometimes said things that were so hard to understand. For example, the last time he introduced Deputy Colonel Deng to Comrade Zhao, he invited people to his home for a drink, but his wife called Comrade Zhao over without even saying hello. It was such an embarrassing scene, and in the end it caused Deputy Colonel Deng such a headache. From then on, he didn't have the face to see Deputy Colonel Deng in the army.
Others may not know, but he knows that the opportunity for Zhao Lanlan to actively pursue Deputy Colonel Deng was gained through hard work, not through modesty. These words came from the mouth of his wife.
"How did I hurt her? She came to ask me, and I couldn't say a word. Besides, whatever she did was her own idea. We are adults, what can I do to her? Sun Aiguo, aren't you too controlling?" Bai Ting poured herself a glass of water impatiently. She was too lazy to care about the food in the pot that was almost burnt.
Sun Aiguo quickly walked over, picked up the spatula and stir-fried it, then added some water. Just as he covered the pot, he heard his wife say from behind: "Eat in the cafeteria by yourself in the future. Don't be like Captain Lu, who has someone to cook at home and runs home all the time. I have to work, and I only have a short time at noon, and I have to come back to cook for you. Sun Aiguo, are you looking for a wife or a nanny?"
"What are you talking about? What nanny? How can you say such nonsense?" Sun Aiguo became anxious and didn't even bother to care about the shovel that fell to the ground.
"Comrade Bai Ting, please correct your thinking! It was you who said that we should be frugal and save money for the future, so I listened to you and thought that we could go home and eat by ourselves, and save the food coupons to send back to your parents' home, so that we can save money! And didn't we agree that whoever comes home earlier will cook first? Did I let you cook alone?"
"You didn't!" Bai Ting was furious when she heard this. "But look, have you ever come back early? Every time you come back, you eat all the ready-made food. But I have to cook for you in such a short time every day!"
"This house doesn't belong to me alone. We are in a marriage relationship, not here to serve you. Anyway, I won't cook for lunch in the future. You can eat in the cafeteria if you like, or eat bread if you like. We'll each have the afternoon meal for a week!" Bai Ting made all the arrangements clearly.
She said to Sun Aiguo, "Besides, don't mention my parents' home to me anymore. I haven't sent any allowances or food coupons to my parents' home for a long time. That's our family's money. I'm already married, so why should I care about my brother's marriage? Don't bother with me in the future. I'm not like Liu Meiyun, who supports her brother!"
"Brother-supporting demon?" Sun Aiguo heard this term for the first time and found it new. "What does it mean?"
Bai Ting was also stunned. Sometimes she didn't know why, but her mouth was faster than her brain. Sometimes new words popped out of her mouth, and she didn't know how to explain them to Sun Aiguo afterwards, because even she herself didn't know what was going on!
"I don't know, I just slipped up, but what I meant is, don't worry about my family from now on! Let's just live our own lives!"
"Well, that's right!" Sun Aiguo nodded in agreement. Seeing that Bai Ting's arrogance was not as strong as before, he couldn't help but ask, "When are we going to have a baby?"
"Children, children! I want children every day!" Bai Ting had just swallowed a mouthful of water when Sun Aiguo asked her this question. She couldn't hold back her anger and yelled, "We've been married for less than three years. I've told you several times that we should have children after we've had enough of our own world. Besides, I'm busy with work now. The school is newly built and I'm one of the first teachers to go in. I have to be proactive."
"Then you have to have a specific deadline, right? So I can shut up my mother back home." Sun Aiguo frowned. Bai Ting didn't want children, which was more troublesome than her occasional nonsense.
I am already 30 years old. My neighbor Lu Changzheng is several years younger than me and he already has three kids. He has always wanted to have a child and his parents in his hometown are urging him to have one. If he keeps dragging it on, his mother might be so anxious that she would move to an island to force him to give birth.
Moreover, when he was dating Bai Ting at the beginning, he really didn't know that Bai Ting didn't want to have a child so early.
"Let's talk about it after next year!" Bai Ting said impatiently.
I don't know why, but she really doesn't want to have children.
Sun Aiguo, who had noticed his wife's perfunctory tone, picked up the shovel from the ground with a look of dejection, threw it directly onto the stove, and said, "Whatever you want, I'm going to the cafeteria!"
Bai Ting: “…”
Ever since the triplets turned one year old and were able to walk slowly with support from their parents, Liu Meiyun has hardly had a single day to spare.
Babies over one year old need to be taught to walk and talk.
Lu Wanjun usually had to stay in the hospital half of the day, and Lu Changzheng had to train every day without fail, so he could not be relied on at all. At home, only he and Wu Ma had to take care of three energetic little babies.
Liu Meiyu feels that time passes by in the blink of an eye every day. She is so tired at night that she falls asleep almost immediately when she lies on the bed. During the day, when she closes her eyes, she still has to change diapers, feed and nurse the children, and take the three brothers to the yard to bask in the sun.
"Xiaobao, I've told you so many times that you can't eat mud."
Liu Meiyu accidentally glanced at Dabao for a second longer, and when she turned around, Xiaobao started to pick up a piece of mud from the ground and stuff it into his mouth.
"If you eat any more, I'll beat you up."
Liu Meiyun quickly slapped the mud off Xiaobao's hands and deliberately put on a stern face, "This is dirty. If you eat it, you will need an injection."
As a result, Comrade Lu Xiaobao was not afraid of his mother getting angry at all. Instead, he chuckled and kindly picked up a piece of mud from the ground and fed it to Liu Meiyun, "Mom...eat! Mom will give you an injection!"
“…”
Liu Meiyu was so angry with her little son that she patted him on the butt. Just as she was about to say something, she saw a familiar figure walking towards her on the small road in front of her house with red eyes.
"Liu Meiyu!" Zhao Lanlan looked like she was about to cry, and she rushed over and yelled at me with great momentum.
"What?" Liu Meiyu frowned. She always felt that this woman was going crazy every time she saw her.
"Did you say anything to Wang Xuebing?"
Zhao Lanlan asked this out of nowhere, leaving Liu Meiyu confused. "I've never been out of the island, what am I going to say to people? Are you sane? I don't know him or you well, why are you going crazy in my house?"
Seeing that Zhao Lanlan was in an unstable mood, Liu Meiyu quickly called Mother Wu to bring the three brothers into the house one by one.
"Who else could it be but you! Who on this island knows about me and knows Wang Xuebing? I knew you were a bad person who couldn't stand my success and ruined my marriage time and time again! I have a grudge against you since my last life! Liu Meiyu, you are so evil!"
Zhao Lanlan was angry, so she went to find Wang Xuebing as Bai Ting had taught her, but he turned his face away and refused to appreciate her. He even brought up her past entanglement with Deng Futuan, showing no mercy at all.
On this island, apart from Liu Meiyu, Zhao Lanlan couldn't think of anyone else who would say bad things about her in front of Wang Xuebing!
"If you are sick, go to the hospital on the island to treat your brain! Don't come to me every day to seek a sense of existence!" Liu Meiyu had just sent Erbao to Wu Mabao's room, but when she turned around, she saw that Xiaobao had crawled to Zhao Lanlan's side without knowing when.
"You are sick! Liu Meiyu! I hate you so much! If you weren't talking nonsense, how could Wang Xuebing look down on me so much!"
It was the first time that Zhao Lanlan couldn't hold back her tears in front of Liu Meiyu. As soon as she rolled up her sleeve, she felt something grabbing her leg. She didn't think much about it, and as she was already angry, she just kicked away.
"Zhao Lanlan!"
Seeing Xiaobao falling down, Liu Meiyu rushed over with red eyes to stop him, but she was too late. Xiaobao was kicked and fell on his butt, with his head hitting the ground.
She picked up Xiaobao and held him in her arms with heartache. At that moment, she felt that all the blood in her body was flowing backwards and her mind went blank. But she still remembered to check Xiaobao's head carefully. Fortunately, there was no bleeding, but it was red. Not only was the skin broken, but it was also swelling rapidly.
“Wow…”
"mother"
The pain made Xiaobao cry out in agony, tears rolling down his face, causing Liu Meiyu's heart to ache.
"What's wrong? What happened?" Mother Wu put Dabao and Erbao back into the basket, then stepped out to take a look.
"I...I didn't mean it!"
Zhao Lanlan's action just now was subconscious. Now she knew she was in trouble and her heartbeat suddenly accelerated. Especially when she saw Liu Meiyu didn't say a word for a long time and just held Xiaobao and coaxed him, she panicked and took two steps back.
For some reason, she suddenly felt a chill on her back. She wanted to explain that it was not intentional and then left.
"Mom! It hurts, it hurts!" The little baby lay in his mother's arms, crying bitterly, and even reached for his head with his little hands.
Apart from holding him and comforting him, Liu Meiyu could not feel any pain for Xiaobao. She just regretted her carelessness just now.
"Mother Wu, please help me carry Xiaobao in first."
Liu Meiyu, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly handed the still crying baby to Mother Wu, with an expression on her face that was more terrifying than ever before.
"Oh!" Mother Wu felt sorry for Xiaobao, so she didn't ask any questions and just carried the baby into the house.
"Liu Meiyu, I really didn't mean to kick your son. He grabbed my leg and I thought it was something else! It was you who didn't pay attention! No wonder..."
“Bang!”
"Liu Meiyu! You dare to hit me!" Zhao Lanlan covered her burning face and looked at the woman in front of her with disbelief, whose face was as cold as an ice cellar.
“Bang!”
Liu Meiyu was so angry that she grabbed the man and slapped him hard in the face.
"I've been wanting to deal with you for a long time! You're mentally ill and medicine doesn't work, so you come here just to get beaten, right? You've been biting people like a mad dog all day long. If you can't get used to living on the island, move to a mental hospital!"
"Liu Meiyu! Are you crazy?" Zhao Lanlan covered her face and retreated step by step.
She had never seen Liu Meiyu like this before. There was a chill in her eyes. The way she looked at people made people's backs cold. Moreover, she was so ruthless that people could not hide from her!
If it were any other time, she would have rushed up to fight, but this time, Xiaobao's crying in the room made her feel a little guilty, and Liu Meiyu's appearance was really too scary.
"Crazy Zhao, you should pray that my son's head is okay. If the wound gets infected or there are sequelae of a concussion, these two slaps won't even be enough to pay the interest!"
After saying this, Liu Meiyun was so angry that she went into the house and took Xiaobao to the hospital to find Lu Wanjun.
Along the way, she just felt a tightness in her chest and it was hard for her to breathe.
Self-blame and regret seemed to flow back into the body along with all the blood. Xiaobao was still lying in my arms with a wronged look on his face, shouting "Mom" loudly.
