After that incident happened, I thought about it for a long time. I often lost my focus while eating and working. That kind of irrationality was too terrible.
Is it only when it becomes like that that we can truly have the affection between family members?
Seeing me thinking hard, my eldest son couldn't help it, and said to me at the dinner table, "Mom, if you have any problem, just tell us directly. We will all help you think about it together. It's better than you thinking about it alone for so many days without any result."
I came back to my senses and smiled, "It's okay, maybe he was scared by the incident he dealt with before, he should be fine in a couple of days."
"If you're scared, that's a big deal." Grandpa tapped his chopsticks. "Some people are scared. They look normal at first, but later on they become more and more like they've lost their souls. I think you look a bit like them, Qingshan's wife. Let's get a mother-in-law to come and give you a shout."
I was shocked by him and quickly said, "Sir, this is not popular nowadays. If someone sees us, they will say we are feudal and superstitious."
After much persuasion, he finally stopped going out with his crutches to call his mother-in-law.
Pei Qingshan in the commune naturally knew about the incident. When I went to bed at night, he asked me, "Are you really scared?"
"I'm not someone who would be so easily frightened as to lie to my children at home. I just can't figure out something. It will be fine in a couple of days." I was a little perfunctory with him. I really didn't want to answer questions like this anymore.
I am now the team leader. When I encounter some problems, isn't it normal to think about them while eating? Pei Qingshan has experienced this before.
You say he cares, but he didn't say anything after asking that question. You say he doesn't care, but he still asked another question.
When I think about love affairs, I think too much and cannot sleep well. I am always groggy in the middle of the night. Occasionally I wake up with sleepy eyes and drink the water on the bedside table.
I was stunned when I took a sip of the water; it was actually warm.
I put it on the bedside before going to bed, so it can't be hot when I get up in the middle of the night to drink it. Could it be...
I looked at the man sleeping next to me. He was lying there straight, with his hands folded on his abdomen and his eyes closed. I couldn't tell whether he was asleep or not.
I held the warm water in my hands, sipped it in small sips, and stood up to go to the bathroom.
Suddenly I heard a sound behind me. I turned around and saw that he had taken out a flashlight and was following me. The light from the flashlight was right on the path in front of me.
"Why aren't you asleep yet? The water on the table..."
He was holding something else in his hands, and he strode over to help me put on a coat. "Although it's not cold now, it will be windy when you get up at night. You didn't even think of putting on a coat before going out. Go quickly, I'll help you light it."
After putting on the coat, I felt warmth all over my body. He handed me the flashlight and told me to be careful not to fall into the pit.
It's not the first time you have to relieve yourself late at night, why should you be so careful?
I went in to relieve myself, feeling both amused and helpless. When I came out, he was still standing at the door of the toilet, standing straight in the gentle night breeze. The way he stood there took me back to the time when we were in love in the army.
During training, he would always come to find me after finishing the training during the day, just like now, standing outside our company waiting for me to come out.
I was quite touched, so I walked over and gently hugged him from behind, "Qingshan."
"Hmm?" He held my hand. "It's a little cold. Let's go back to the house. We can talk if you have anything to say. Don't stand in the wind."
We went back to the house together, thinking about the warm water we drank when we woke up at night, and the flashlight and coat we used when we got up at night. Our bodies and hearts were warm.
"You have to get up early tomorrow to go to work, why are you still not sleeping so late?"
He hugged me, leaned on my head and said, "You don't look good today. I'm afraid you'll have a fever tonight. You have to pay more attention to it. Are you feeling well now?"
It turned out that he was always paying attention to me because he saw that I was not in a good state. At night, he noticed that I did not sleep well, so he changed the hot water for me every once in a while, for fear that I would feel uncomfortable if I got up in the middle of the night and drank cold water.
He really cared about me.
I told him what Ruan Niannian said about my "irrationality" and my thoughts over the past few days. I felt that he might be able to give me some help.
Who knew that he was silent for a long time, and what he said was different from what I imagined.
"Pingping, no matter what your purpose is for being with me, my purpose is the same. I want to take care of you, let you live a good life, and let you have no worries for the rest of your life. I am not doing this out of guilt, and maybe it is no longer because of love like before. I just feel that no matter then or now, you are the most suitable person for me."
What he said was very true.
I couldn't help but ask him, "What would you do if I was bullied outside one day?"
"Although this kind of thing is unlikely to happen, since you asked, I will tell you the answer in my heart. If you are bullied outside, I will first try to use legal means to punish the bully, but if I can't punish him, I will use my own methods to help you get justice."
I smiled and joked with him, "We are good citizens who abide by the law. We can't do those illegal and criminal things."
Pei Qingshan also smiled, and the palm of his hand on my shoulder trembled.
"I didn't say I was going to do anything illegal. We all come from the military, and no matter you or I, we all have our own bottom line. Sometimes, legal means can make people miserable. As soon as I think of that person bullying you, I can think of thousands of ways to deal with him."
