When Mu's mother arrived and heard about this, she immediately rolled up her sleeves.
"Da Bao and Xiao Bao, you two come with Grandma. Chu Chu, you take Ping An back with you."
"I want to see which family is so shameless as to teach their child like this."
Lin Chuchu said with some worry, "Mom, be careful, don't let them hit you. If it really comes to that, we'll come back."
"Don't worry, I know they can't hit me."
Although Lin Chuchu was still a little worried, she had no choice but to take Xiao Ping'an back.
The children who fought with Da Bao and Xiao Bao were not from one family, but from several families. Mu's mother took them directly to their homes.
Soon, a commotion broke out in the courtyard.
Mu's mother had a loud voice, but every word she said made sense, leaving the other person speechless.
Later, his husband came out.
"Auntie, please take a look at where the child is injured. We'll compensate you. Just name your price, how about 30 yuan?"
She really couldn't let Mu's mother keep arguing; it was just too embarrassing.
Mu's mother rolled her eyes at him, "Who wants your family's money? I want your wife, mother, and children to apologize to those three."
The man's expression changed slightly; wouldn't this be even more embarrassing?
"Auntie, we're neighbors, we see each other all the time, it's nothing serious, so why bother with the apology?"
"That's what Mother Mu said in a firm and resolute voice."
"No, your family must apologize. Otherwise, we'll have a serious talk with your boss about how you raise your children."
“We’re both soldiers, my son and daughter-in-law are both from military backgrounds, and we didn’t raise our child like this. Do you think children are divided into different classes?”
The man paused, then looked helplessly at Researcher Hou.
"Comrade Hou, it was our child's fault, but it was just kids playing around and talking nonsense. You can't take it seriously."
Researcher Hou remained expressionless. "Children don't say things like that. She must have overheard an adult saying it. I'm a soldier, dedicated to research for the country. Is my child someone else's child in your eyes?"
“I’m still alive, and you talk to my child like this. If I were to sacrifice myself and become a martyr one day, would you still be able to accept my child?”
Researcher Hou's voice was hoarse, yet it carried a series of questions.
We are all soldiers, all busy working for the country. Why should his child be bullied?
Hearing Researcher Hou's words, the man felt a chord deep within him.
After taking a deep breath, she bowed to him and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't raise my child well."
As he spoke, he yelled into the room, "Did you hear that? Come out and apologize right now, you brat. If you don't come out, I'll break your legs."
The sound of the children crying and screaming came from the room. In the end, she still came out of the room, her eyes red, and apologized to Da Bao, Xiao Bao, and Duo Duo.
Mother Mu also made Da Bao and Xiao Bao apologize to the other party, but she couldn't let them off so easily.
"What, the kid has already come out to apologize, and I still have to go and invite your wife?"
There was really no other way, so the woman came out and apologized.
This was just the first one. She then went to three more places to make sure that all the children who had bullied Duoduo had apologized to her before Mu's mother was satisfied.
Mother Mu spoke kindly to Researcher Hou and Duoduo.
“If the children are bullied again, you can have Da Bao and Xiao Bao come to me, and I will stand up for Duo Duo.”
Researcher Hou thanked Mu's mother, "Auntie, thank you so much."
"No need to thank me. You're Chuchu's colleague, it's only right that I help you."
"Let's go back. When we get back, let's comfort Duoduo. This little girl is really frightened."
"Mother Mu said with a smile."
Duoduo was in her father's arms, looking at Mu's mother with admiration, thinking she was very amazing.
Soon, Mu's mother returned home with her two children, and Lin Chuchu quickly came to greet her.
"Mom, how are you?"
Mother Mu waved her hand.
"It's alright, those people are no match for me."
"But some new people have come to this residential compound, and there are a few older ones who like to gossip."
"Sigh, things are better off not being so quiet like before."
Most of the older people there are not highly educated, and many are rural women who behave like shrewish rural women, stirring up trouble in the residential compound.
There was nothing that could be done about it. These soldiers were all from rural areas, and once they were able to join the army, they naturally had to bring their mothers, wives, and children with them.
This led to a division in the residential compound into two factions: one group consisted of people of better character, while the rest were people who loved to take advantage of others and were aggressive in their behavior.
Mu's mother disliked that kind of person and usually kept her distance.
Lin Chuchu sighed helplessly, "No matter where you are, you'll find all kinds of people."
Even within their research base, there are people like Chen Meng who like to flaunt their family background and use their power to intimidate others.
Lin Chuchu sent a message to Mu Chen, saying that he didn't have to work overtime today, so he had also returned from the police station.
Now he has become the deputy director. He is very young, almost the youngest deputy director, so naturally some people are not convinced.
However, Mu Chen had his own methods and quickly won over his subordinates.
He now exudes authority and carries the aura of a superior.
A month ago, another case occurred in Beijing. Now the murderer has been caught. It was he who found useful information amidst the chaotic clues, identified the suspect, and arrested him in less than a month.
At first, the suspect refused to confess, but in the end, it was he who interrogated him and broke down the suspect's defenses. Only then did the suspect confess to the crime and find the murder weapon.
They were commended by their superiors. This was also the first time Mu Chen had shown his talent since taking office, handling a case so quickly.
It was because of this incident that the higher-ups allowed them to relax for a few days, which is why he was able to come back today to spend time with his wife and children.
Both of them are usually too busy and rarely see each other. Fortunately, they both understand the nature of each other's work, otherwise, their relationship would definitely have problems.
Mu Chen bought a lot of snacks from outside, all of which were things a child would like to eat. The supply and marketing cooperative in Beijing had produced a new type of biscuit called peach shortbread.
It's crispy and crunchy, and many people love to eat it, especially the elderly and children.
"The convenience store in our residential compound said they're going to get peach shortbread. I guess we'll be able to buy it in a few days. It tastes really good, and it's not too sweet."
Mu's mother tried a small piece, and it was indeed quite delicious. However, they were all adults and couldn't possibly compete with a child for food.
So I only ate two pieces and then stopped.
The children were very sensible; they let all the elders in the family try some, and then each of them took two pieces, putting the rest into the cupboard.
Although they were well-off and never lacked food or clothing, they did not spoil their children excessively.
