When they came back that night, Linglong and the others were arranged to stay in a room.
As for Congcong, Zeng Yu also asked if he wanted to sleep in a separate room.
Linglong took into consideration that it was Congcong's first time in Beijing and was afraid that he would be scared at night, so she did not let Congcong sleep alone.
The room where the three of them lived was Zheng Tiansen's room, but the bed in the room was replaced with a bigger one.
Congcong had been riding the train and out playing, and had already fallen asleep due to being very sleepy.
Zheng Tiansen and Linglong sat by the bed and talked.
"Linglong, school starts on the 18th, so you can report to school on the 17th. Do you really want to take Congcong with you?"
"No, we can't leave Congcong behind."
"Dad and Mom both like Congcong very much. If they knew you insisted on taking care of Congcong while going to school, they would definitely not mind. They would probably suggest leaving Congcong at home so that you can concentrate on school."
Linglong panicked. "What should we do?"
"Linglong, how about letting Congcong come back with me? We'll be separated, and the child will have to stay with either dad or mom. You'll have to go to school, which will be very inconvenient. We have Aunt Tong and Xiao Jiang to help us in the army, and Congcong is more familiar with them. What do you think?"
If Zheng Tiansen had proposed this before coming to the capital, Linglong probably would not have agreed, but now she has weighed the pros and cons.
Rather than leaving Congcong with her parents-in-law, it would be better to let Congcong stay in the military family compound.
Zheng Tiansen basically stays at home at night, and Aunt Tong and others help take care of Congcong during the day.
Even when she was young, she had to work almost all day and couldn't take care of Congcong.
If she did that, she wouldn't be able to see Congcong for a long time.
Although she was reluctant, she also knew that this was the best thing for Congcong's physical and mental health.
Otherwise, she insisted on taking Congcong to school. It was hard work for her and Congcong too.
"Take Congcong back." She finally made a decision.
"Don't worry, Linglong. I will definitely take good care of Congcong. He is my son too."
"Um."
With the children beside them, they did nothing for two nights and just slept peacefully.
The family of three lay on a big bed, which was quite cozy.
Zeng Yu and her husband were lying there talking, not asleep.
"Last year, we were both worried about Tiansen's marriage, but in the blink of an eye, he got married, and we even got a grandson."
Father Zheng smiled. "Brothers fight like tigers, and fathers and sons fight together in battle. Congcong looks like a well-behaved and clever child. If we educate him well, he will be a good child for our family in the future. When Tiansen and his family have children, he will have another brother."
"I don't know how long it will take for Tiansen to have his own children."
"I already have a wife, so how far can a child be?"
"That will definitely have to wait until Linglong finishes university."
"So, do you want your daughter-in-law to give you grandchildren right now, or do you want a daughter-in-law who is already in college?"
Zeng Yu glanced at her husband. "It's obvious to you, isn't it?"
Father Zheng chuckled and said nothing more.
Zheng Tiansen had not yet told his family that Linglong was going to college with Congcong. They all thought that Congcong came this time just for them to see.
Good now, there is no need to mention these.
The next day, after breakfast at home, Zeng Yu took Linglong and Congcong to the department store to buy things.
Zheng Tiansen sat with his father for a while and then went out.
When Wang Meiqi came out of the office, she saw a man smoking at the door.
He was not wearing a military uniform, but a coat. After not seeing him for a long time, he looked more like a mature man, but he was still as tall and handsome as before.
Wang Meicen couldn't help but be a little dazed.
She came over with a little expectation.
"Tiansen, are you waiting for me?"
Seeing her, Zheng Tiansen put out his cigarette and threw it into the trash can.
"Well, let's go and find a place to sit."
His indifferent tone gave her a little more hope.
A private room in a teahouse.
Zheng Tiansen poured himself a cup of hot tea.
"Tiansen, when did you come back?"
Zheng Tiansen turned his teacup and looked up at her. "I know why my brother had the accident."
Wang Meiqin panicked. "Tiansen, why are you bringing this up again? Let's forget about your brother's matter."
Zheng Tiansen put down the teacup, pressed the table, and moved closer to her.
"What letter did you write to my brother? What did you say to him on the phone? Have you forgotten everything?"
Wang Meiqin clenched her hands and forced a smile. "Tiansen, what are you talking about? I've written so many letters to your brother and called him so many times. I don't know which one you're talking about."
His eyes were filled with aggression. "It was my eldest brother's last letter and last phone call before he died. How could you not remember? Didn't my eldest brother look for you in your dreams at midnight? Can you sleep well?"
All these words were the result of his long-term speculation, half-guessing and half-deceiving.
But Wang Meicen's reaction also confirmed his questions step by step.
I don’t know how much Zheng Tiansen knows. This time, Wang Meicen was really scared. Not only was her face pale, but her body was also shaking.
Seeing her reaction, Zheng Tiansen made one last move.
"I told you, I already know everything, Wang Meiqin, you really make me sick."
Wang Meicen finally broke down, stood up and shouted.
"What have I done wrong? I just like you."
Zheng Tiansen's pupils suddenly shrank.
Wang Meicen cried and defended herself.
"What can I do? I can't control myself. I'm afraid that once I get married it will be too late. That's why I told your brother. I just wanted to make things clear with him. Who knew he was so fragile? It was his own carelessness. What does it have to do with me? I didn't let him die."
Zheng Tiansen's clenched fists were so tight that veins popped out, and he had to use a lot of self-strength to prevent himself from swinging his fist out.
He told himself that this was his only chance to learn the truth about his brother's death, and he had to endure it, even though he was extremely disgusted with the woman in front of him.
Seeing that Zheng Tiansen didn't say anything, Wang Meicen thought she had impressed him.
"Tiansen, listen to me. I really didn't mean to do that. I was just afraid your brother would get too excited, so I wrote him a letter first. I didn't expect him to call me to clarify things. I told him very clearly that the person I like is you, not him. I begged him to make us happy, and he agreed. His death was truly an accident. It has nothing to do with you or me."
How dare she force her elder brother to fulfill their wish?
If he wasn't so desperate and didn't know how to face Wang Meicen and his younger brother in the future, how could his brother be so fearless in saving others and not leave himself a chance?
He was determined to die, thinking that death would fulfill their wishes.
When Zheng Tiansen finally knew the whole truth, he felt heartbroken.
Brother, how could you be so stupid? Even without Wang Meicen, you still have our family. Besides, why didn’t you ask me? That was just Wang Meicen’s wishful thinking.
