Chapter 295: The House in My Hometown Was Burned Down
Cheng Qiao smiled and pulled Zhao Xiaobei's hand. She didn't remember anything about her childhood. Fortunately, her uncle was there and she told him everything that happened back then. Otherwise, she would definitely be entangled by Zhao Jing and the others.
During this period, Ye Jun took Cheng Liguo and others to travel in Beijing. Li Huan looked at the calendar and found that it was already the sixth day of the New Year. Qin Guoqing was ready to go back because his marriage leave and vacation were about to expire and he had to return to the team.
Li Huan actually wanted to stay for a while longer as the university would start in a few days, but he thought about the grocery store opening and Li Le having to report to the school, and he didn't know whether the iron cow applied for by the village had arrived yet.
So many things forced Li Huan to join the team going home. Ye Jun asked someone to buy an express soft sleeper, so that he could be comfortable even for just one night.
But when he was about to leave, he couldn't find Li Ming. Li Huan was so angry that he took a deep breath and roared like a lion, almost deafening Cheng Qiao's ears.
"What a coincidence, did you hide Li Ming?"
Cheng Qiao nodded. They were all her children. She couldn't favor one over the other. Even if she had to work harder, she would not let any of them suffer.
"Qiao, why don't you understand that I feel sorry for you? You still have to go to school."
"I understand, but you don't understand one thing. Li Ming is still young and can't leave his mother. We gave birth to him so that he can grow up happily, not abandon him at will."
"What kind of words are these? How can you just throw them away casually?"
"Li Huan, think about it carefully. If you were Li Ming, and your brothers, sisters and brothers were all studying here with your mother, but you had to leave your mother alone, would you think too much?"
Li Huan was silent. It was really that Li Ming was too naughty. All the other children in his family combined were not as naughty as him.
"But this child is too naughty. You can't deal with him by yourself."
"I have already discussed it with him. If he wants to stay here, he must listen to me. Otherwise, I don't have so much energy to argue with him. He also agreed."
"Then try it first. If you dare to lose a pound of weight, I will take all four children back immediately."
Cheng Qiao smiled and looked around. Seeing that everyone was listening attentively, she blew a kiss to Li Huan. All of Li Huan's anger disappeared with this gesture.
Li Ming hid in a closet in the back house of the outer courtyard and heard their conversation clearly. Only then did he realize that it was because he was too naughty that his father disliked him.
Thinking back on his own behavior and comparing himself with Cheng Li and Ye Jing, he finally began to reflect deeply on himself and decided not to be naughty anymore and would definitely not add burden to his mother.
"Dad, you have to take good care of yourself. You have to take the tonics I gave you every day. Don't forget. And you have to write to me every month."
Cheng Qiao comforted Li Huan and immediately looked at Cheng Liguo. She suddenly felt uncomfortable. In her previous life, she and Cheng Liguo had never been close, but instead she was close to Xia Fen and others.
In this life, she wanted to be close to her father, but the distance blocked the affection between them. It was really fate. Fortunately, in a few years, she would be reunited with Cheng Liguo.
Cheng Liguo stretched out his hands and gently held Cheng Qiao in his arms:
"My daughter, feel free to do whatever you want to do. Dad will always support you."
Looking at the car going away, Li Ming climbed out of the closet, hugged Cheng Qiao's legs, and looked at her with tears in his eyes: "Mom, I will definitely listen to you and stop being naughty."
Cheng Qiao stroked Li Ming's head affectionately. This child was just a little naughty, but otherwise he was very good. She hoped that he would be more tactful when going to kindergarten so that he would not suffer any loss.
Li Huan and his friends returned to Chuncheng, and Li's mother and Lele started to get busy. Tomorrow Qin Guoqing and Cheng Liguo will return to the Hexi Corridor. They will have to sleep in the open air along the way, so they have to prepare food and daily necessities.
When the dawn sunlight shone into the room through the curtains, Li Le opened her eyes. She felt sore all over that even her legs were unresponsive.
Qin Guoqing got up quickly, looked at Li Le's face full of pain, and scratched his head in embarrassment. He was too uncontrollable last night, and he didn't know whether he would have a child.
"Le Le, if you have a child, what will you do with your classes?"
Li Le rolled his eyes at him. His second sister-in-law had already given her the medicine. As long as she took one pill afterwards, she would be guaranteed not to have a child. Moreover, this was the medicine prepared by his second sister-in-law herself, so there would definitely not be any side effects.
"Let me take you there."
"No, no, I'll go by myself. You can sleep for a while and don't forget to write to me."
Qin Guoqing picked up the package reluctantly, and when he was leaving the room, he went back, put down the package, hugged Li Le and kissed him hard again, then picked up the package with a smile and turned to leave.
This time he really left, and Qin Guoqing didn't even turn his head back. He didn't dare to look back, for fear that he would not go back on impulse. If that really happened, he would definitely die miserably under the whip of his own father.
Thinking of his biological father, Qin Guoqing's attitude became firm again. Li's mother had already prepared breakfast. She looked behind Qin Guoqing and saw that there was no trace of her daughter. The corners of her mouth raised slightly.
Cheng Liguo also came this way. He picked up a bowl of porridge and started drinking. Qin Guoqing wanted to explain something, but seeing that they didn't even ask, he put his heart at ease and said nothing.
"Be careful on the road, and write back on time, okay?"
When the car started, Li's mother finally showed her reluctance. Qin Guoqing took a deep breath and started the engine. When the car was about to turn, he saw the familiar voice and shadow at the door:
"Uncle Cheng, wait for me for a minute."
Qin Guoqing pulled the handbrake, opened the door and jumped out, quickly rushed towards the figure, and hugged Li Le tightly with his powerful arms: "Be good, wait for me to come back."
Li Le looked at the car going away with tearful eyes. She didn't expect Qin Guoqing to jump out of the car to hug her. The weakness buried in her heart finally showed up. She hugged Qin Guoqing and told him to be careful.
Li Huan curled his lips, not wanting to watch this lingering scene, and turned back. He finished three bowls of porridge and five big meat buns in one breath, but still felt unsatisfied, so he reached out for the steamed bun.
But his hand touched empty air. It turned out that Xuhui quickly took the steamed bun away. This father started missing his mother early in the morning. How will he live in the future?
After seeing Qin Guoqing off, Li Le calmed down and started to pack his luggage. He would be reporting to school at the beginning of next month, so he had to take everything he needed with him.
After lunch, Li's mother was cleaning up the dishes when Skinny Monkey rushed in. He had just got off a long-distance bus and ran all the way to Li Huan.
"Skinny monkey, it's better to come at the right time than to come early. You must be hungry. Come and have something to eat."
Mother Li also smiled and prepared to go to the kitchen to get food, but was shocked by what Shou Hou said:
"Brother Huan, hurry back, your house...has been burned down."
