In later generations, there were cameras installed everywhere on the streets, and some lost children could not be found.
Not to mention now, even train tickets don’t have a real-name system yet, so if you lose them you don’t know where to find them.
"I won't get lost. I know the way." Li Yumeng was still not convinced.
If you say a ten-year-old child understands everything, she does understand a little. If you say she doesn’t understand, she really doesn’t understand anything and thinks everyone she meets is a good person.
Chen Xiaoqiao was furious: "You don't know how serious it is. If the human traffickers catch you, cover your mouth and stuff you into a car, and then take you on a train to sell you to a poor mountain village as a young wife, you will never be able to come back."
Li Yumeng didn't like what she said and looked at her eagerly: "Grandma, I'm thirsty. I want to drink Coke."
I ate fried chicken as a meal, but I ate too much and felt sick of it, so drinking Coke was just the right way to get rid of the greasy feeling.
Chen Xiaoying really has no idea what to do with this little granddaughter.
The eldest granddaughter, Li Yutong, was reborn and knew more than her, so she was much less of a worry; the second granddaughter, Li Yuhan, was average in everything, but was obedient and knew how to study; the third granddaughter, Li Yujie, was average, and her mother, Zhao Xueyan, was able to control her. Her test scores were not average, but acceptable.
Only this little granddaughter, who is only three years younger than the third granddaughter Li Yujie, has been completely spoiled.
She suddenly thought of how her third daughter-in-law, Zhao Xueyan, usually took care of the children at home. If there were only two sesame cakes for the mother and daughter, Zhao Xueyan would eat one and a half directly, and the rest would be for the child, regardless of whether the child was full or not.
The fourth daughter-in-law, Yang Xiaohui, also had two sesame cakes. She let the children eat them first. Li Yumeng played, ate and threw away the cakes at the same time. She picked up the broken pieces and ate them. If she was not full, she would find something else to eat.
It doesn’t seem like it’s a bad thing for a mother to be a little selfish.
"Stop drinking." She said unhappily.
Li Yumeng burst into tears immediately. When a child cries, the sharp cry can immediately make adults irritated: "I want to drink, wuwuwuwu."
When she opened her mouth and cried, her mouth was still full of unchewed fried chicken nuggets. Chen Xiaoying was afraid that she would choke her: "Stop crying, shut up!"
Li Yumeng didn't listen.
As a nurse, Chen Xiaoying couldn't really beat her child. She recalled that when Li Yumeng was seven or eight years old, he stole money from home. The fourth child, Li Hong, beat him up. He rolled on the ground and cried loudly. Even though his back was covered with blood from being beaten by branches, he still didn't admit that he was wrong.
She just cried, and after she was done crying, the beating was of no use.
When Li Yumeng grows up, she will have to settle old scores with her father, Lao Si: "When I was a kid, you almost beat me to death. What parents would beat a seven or eight-year-old child like that? Why didn't you just beat me to death?"
"You still want me to take care of you in your old age. I am an independent person, not a machine created by you to take care of your old age."
The fourth brother and his wife were heartbroken. The fourth brother, Li Honggang, an old man in his 50s or 60s, cried and said, "Go away, don't come back, just pretend that I never raised you."
Begging everyone to call their daughter back, and hearing this kind of talk, no parent can accept it.
Li Yumeng couldn't stop crying, and Chen Xiaoying turned cold: "Don't cry, if you cry again, I will send you to your grandma and let your grandma buy you fried chicken and Coke."
Li Yumeng's face suddenly showed fear, and her mouth finally closed. She didn't dare to cry anymore: "I, I won't go, my grandma will beat me."
Her grandmother Chen Xiaoying knew that she would of course not go. When she arrived at her grandmother's house, she couldn't even drink a drop of the bottle of Coke, and she didn't even get a crumb of the fried chicken.
"Oh." She was really helpless.
It's not that she is not allowed to eat fried chicken or drink soda, but she is a child who never ate well. When she was six or seven years old, her mother still chased her to feed her. Now she is ten years old and her physique is not good. She coughs every now and then. How dare she let her eat these as meals?
"How many bottles did she drink today?" Chen Xiaoying knew that when she was not around, Zhao Xueyan couldn't keep an eye on her, so she would definitely drink secretly.
Third aunt Zhao Xueyan really has no way to deal with her niece Li Yumeng. If she is pulled, she will scream. If she is kicked and hit, she even wants to throw her out of the store. She has no manners at all.
"She came in around ten o'clock. From what I saw, she drank two bottles. Sometimes she drank behind the cabinet and no one noticed."
Chen Xiaoying was furious and yelled at Li Yumeng, "This soda is not water, how can you drink it like this?"
That means at least three or four bottles. Do you still need to drink it now? Do you drink it as water?
Li Yumeng was so angry at her that she stared at her with wide eyes and a look of dissatisfaction, as if she was a hind wife who came to bully her on purpose.
Chen Xiaoying almost cursed: Go home and find your mother.
If we don't take care of Li Yumeng, this crooked tree, it will really be the same as in its previous life.
Chen Xiaoying was determined to take care of her. If she didn't, she was afraid that she would have regrets. After all, she was only a ten-year-old child, and her life would be completely negated. She felt that as a grandmother, she could not do it.
But she is a granddaughter after all, and there is a son and daughter-in-law between them.
Chen Xiaoying was thinking about how to deal with Li Yumeng when suddenly an unfamiliar woman walked into the store. She was in a hurry and it was obvious that she was not there to eat.
“Aunt, what are you doing…” Over the past few years, Zhao Xueyan, who used to be ignorant and extremely lazy in the village, has now become not only able to work, but also good at entertaining guests.
The old lady said, "Is Yang Xiaohui the daughter-in-law of this family? She is in the hospital. She asked her mother-in-law to come over quickly."
"What's the matter?" Zhao Xueyan was very surprised. The fourth child, Li Honggang's condition had stabilized and he was just waiting for the fractured bone to heal on its own.
The lady looked sympathetic and said, "You'd better go quickly. You're crying so hard."
After saying this, Zhao Xueyan did not dare to delay: "Thank you, auntie, I will go find my mother-in-law now."
Chen Xiaoying was busy in the kitchen when her third daughter-in-law Zhao Xueyan came in and said, "Mom, an old lady just said that Xiaohui was crying loudly in the clinic and asked you to go there quickly."
Chen Xiaoying's heart skipped a beat: "Who got into trouble?"
It can’t be the fourth one.
Yang Xiaohui was taking care of the fourth child in the health center. She was crying so hard. Could it be that something happened to the fourth child?
Zhao Xueyan shook her head: "No one said that."
Chen Xiaoying didn't care anymore, she quickly untied her apron and ran to the health center.
It was summer vacation, and before the scores came out, Li Yutong had nothing to do, so she stayed in the hot pot restaurant all day. When she saw her grandmother running hurriedly towards the health center, she stood up too.
Her grandmother is old, so she shouldn't run too fast. What if she falls or gets hit by a car?
"Mingliang, I'm going to go out for a while." After telling He Mingliang, she followed him.
After all, young people run faster than old people. Before reaching the health center, she caught up with her grandmother.
"Grandma, what's wrong? Did something happen?" Otherwise why would you be so flustered.
Chen Xiaoying frowned, looking anxious: "I don't know, it was your fourth aunt who sent someone to the store to tell her."
"Then don't worry, let's go together." Li Yutong said, supporting grandma Chen Xiaoying who was gasping for breath. They stood there for a while, and only went in together after their breathing became more even.
