Song Lili believes that only children who fight and cause trouble are considered normal children.
Therefore, even if it's to commemorate Xiao Chen's first fight, Song Lili would never blame Xiao Chen.
She returned home in a fairly good mood. The house was bustling with activity. Zhang Shengtian, Song Yongren, Li Weiguo and his wife, as well as Zhang Aiai and her daughter were all there, chatting in the yard.
"Lili's back? Is everything settled?" Zhang Shengtian asked with a smile.
Song Lili nodded, "It wasn't a big deal, it's all taken care of."
"That's good." Zhang Shengtian nodded, ignoring Song Lili, and continued to reminisce with Li Weiguo and Song Yongren about the past and the events in Hongqi Village.
As they were talking, Song Yongren said to Li Weiguo, "Perfect, we can go back together and keep each other company."
Li Weiguo nodded in agreement, "Yes, it's perfect for the three of us old guys to travel together; we can chat on the way."
Otherwise, I really wouldn't feel confident letting Li Weiguo go alone, since it's his first time doing it and he's not at ease.
However, Song Yongren's entire attention was focused on the first few words.
"Three old guys?" He knew exactly who they were without even asking, then a question popped into his mind: "Wasn't it said that Ai'ai and her daughter were also there?"
Li Weiguo was stunned for a moment. "Aiai will stay in the capital from now on and won't go back!" They're already divorced, why would she go back?
“If I don’t go back, what about Lili…” Song Yongren suddenly realized that Song Lili had lied to him.
She said that her suggestion that Song Yongren and Zhang Aiai go back together was a lie, because Zhang Aiai would never go back.
Thinking of this, Song Yongren couldn't help but glance at Song Lili, his eyes filled with a hint of reproach.
Song Lili shrank back guiltily. Oh no, she'd been found out.
She was worried about how to keep Song Yongren from getting angry, since Song Yongren would find out she had lied once Zhang Aiai returned.
But what a coincidence! Li Weiguo and his wife arrived, and now they no longer needed to make excuses; they had someone to go back with!
Song Lili originally thought that Song Yongren would never know about this, but she never expected that it would be brought up today.
Awkward!
"Lili, don't do that again." Song Yongren sighed. This girl is a mother of three, so he couldn't scold her.
It would be embarrassing for her to curse in front of so many people, so Song Yongren could only sigh, his tone slightly heavy.
Song Lili quickly nodded, "I understand, I will never lie to you again." After saying that, she raised her hand to make a promise.
Only then did the others belatedly realize what had happened.
This made Zhang Shengtian both laugh and cry. "Haha, so that's how it is. I knew it. Why would you agree to let one person stay?"
When Zhang Shengtian learned that Song Yongren was going to stay, he was extremely surprised.
It wasn't that he didn't welcome Song Yongren, but rather that he understood Song Yongren and knew that Song Yongren, like himself, was an honest and simple farmer. Therefore, his most sincere thought was not to trouble the children.
Therefore, the natural decision was to leave with Zhang Aiai and the others, for fear that if she went back alone later, the children would worry.
He had been wondering about it at first, but now he realized it was because Lili had lied to him. Now he understood.
"It's alright, it's alright. The child just wanted you to stay a few more days. It's a good thing, the child misses you." Li Weiguo acted as a peacemaker.
"It's not bad now. My wife and I are here, and it's good that you have company. It's good for us to go back together. It's not worse than before."
Li Weiguo laughed heartily. Although Song Lili's method was somewhat frustrating, her intentions were good.
Song Yongren was even more helpless, but since things had come to this point, he could only accept it.
Fortunately, Li Weiguo and his wife came; otherwise, he wouldn't know how to get back!
Thinking of this, Song Yongren couldn't help but glare at Song Lili. How could he have raised such a daughter?
The matter was put behind them and no one mentioned it again. Song Lili quietly slipped away, not wanting to face Song Yongren's glaring eyes.
The others laughed, and the topic changed, returning to the previous conversation, creating a lively atmosphere.
Song Lili returned to her room, changed into comfortable clothes, and after thinking for a moment, decided not to go out. Instead, she worked on her work plan in her room.
There are plenty of people outside; one more or one less won't make a difference. Just quietly do your own thing.
Those people outside don't need her!
Song Lili slowly immersed herself in her thoughts, forgetting everything around her, and focused intently on writing and drawing, quickly forgetting everything outside.
The people in the courtyard didn't bother Song Lili for no reason, whether they knew she was busy or simply forgot about her.
Anyway, the day went very peacefully until evening.
That evening, after Xiao Chen came home, he sneaked over and looked around warily before quietly asking, "Mom, did you tell Dad about what happened to me?"
Song Lili raised an eyebrow, amused. "What? Don't you want your father to know?" Why did this child suddenly have such an idea?
Xiao Chen nodded honestly, "I don't want Dad to know, Mom, can you keep it a secret for me? Please don't tell Dad, okay?" After saying that, she looked at Song Lili pitifully, looking like a little wretched.
Well……
Song Lili looked at Xiao Chen with a headache. This child had actually learned to play the victim? Or rather, was she using her old tricks again?
Finally, unable to bear his gaze any longer, she could only nod helplessly, "Okay, I won't tell him, alright?"
Honestly, I don't know what to say. If a boy gets into a fight, shouldn't he really want to tell his dad?
Song Lili couldn't figure it out, but seeing Xiao Chen's happy expression, she couldn't help but shake her head. "Child, you're still too naive!"
That evening, Song Lili told Zhang Qinghua everything. Zhang Qinghua was the child's father; how could he possibly not know about this?
Song Lili agreed to Xiao Chen's request, partly to avoid him bothering her, and partly to fulfill Xiao Chen's wishes.
However, after she finished speaking, she instructed, "You should keep this to yourself. Don't ask Xiaochen or say that you know. Just pretend that you don't know anything."
Zhang Qinghua was surprised for a moment, then smiled helplessly. Seeing Song Lili staring at him with wide eyes, he could only sigh and rub his forehead, but still agreed, "Okay, I'll pretend I don't know."
"Let's leave it at that. Xiao Chen didn't do anything wrong, so I'll just pretend I don't know anything about it."
After learning the whole story, Zhang Qinghua didn't think her child had done anything wrong and agreed with Song Lili's approach.
Their attitude was simply to tell the child that hitting others is wrong, but also to tell the child that violence is not the way to deal with when someone does something wrong.
