Pei Qingshan quickly stir-fried the food in the pot for a few times, added some water, and covered the pot with a lid.
After doing all this, he looked at Pei Nannan and asked her: "Nannan, be good and tell Daddy, who told you this?"
"But Dad, I was the one who asked you the question first. Shouldn't you answer me first and then ask me the question?" Pei Nannan was puzzled. This was clearly what Teacher Ruan said.
First come, first served.
Even so, she was still a little nervous. She had never expressed her thoughts so boldly before.
But Liu Ping told her that people like her, women and children, were all protected. She was a child now and would be a woman in the future, so she could be bolder and didn't have to be afraid of being beaten and not say anything.
Liu Ping also said that her mother was wrong to beat her before and she should be arrested and educated.
So she plucked up the courage to express her thoughts boldly, and then looked at Pei Qingshan with nervous anticipation.
Pei Qingshan didn't know who told Pei Nannan what to come back and ask this question, so he used his skills as the team leader.
"Nannan, when you ask me a question, I need to know who asked you to ask it before I can answer you honestly. Do you want a casual answer or what's in your heart?"
Pei Nannan was indeed allowed in. She nodded thoughtfully and said, "He Hui, Xiao Li and the others asked me to ask."
"them?"
"Um!"
Pei Nannan told Pei Qingshan that Liu Ping attended the class today and talked to her alone. Then she asked, "Dad, will she be my new mother?"
Pei Qingshan, who had been listening quietly to Pei Nannan's statement, already had a turbulent look in his eyes.
Hasn't she let it go yet?
So he replied: "If you, Chairman Liu, don't mind my cowardice, I'm willing to give myself another chance."
There was no direct answer, but everything was said.
Pei Nannan couldn't understand what it meant for the time being.
But it doesn't matter. She will ask Pei Hehui tomorrow. Pei Hehui knows a lot and will definitely be able to tell her what her father meant.
Pei Qingshan coaxed Pei Nannan out of the kitchen and simply cooked two dishes himself.
I had sweet potato rice and two stir-fried vegetables for dinner.
The second uncle flipped the dishes pickily and tapped Pei Qingshan's bowl with chopsticks in dissatisfaction, "It's just beans and eggplants every day. I'm tired of it. How long has it been since we had meat? Does your daughter want to grow taller? Look at Jinhui, he's not even as tall as you, and the house is getting more and more deserted. There's no one to talk to me. If you have the guts to think about Liu Ping, why don't you coax her back?"
"I get angry just by looking at you! Humph!"
The second uncle vented his anger right at the dinner table, put down his bowl and chopsticks and went back to his room.
Pei Jinhui, who was almost sixteen years old, had no feelings about his parents' divorce.
While eating, he commented on what his second uncle said: "Dad, my great grandfather is right. I won't say anything about the situation between you and my mom before. It's not your fault that you and Aunt Liu Ping broke up. You should make up for it. If Aunt Liu Ping is willing to forgive you, then wouldn't that be the best of both worlds?"
One's husband died, and the other divorced because his wife cheated on him and beat their children. They still have feelings for each other, so wouldn't it be a waste of resources if they don't get back together?
Don’t mistake the sunset for being red.
Pei Jinhui thought what he said made a lot of sense.
He had seen his mother cheating on him more than once, so he had been against her all these years to speak up for his father. He wholeheartedly agreed with the couple's divorce.
"What are you talking about, kid? You're meddling in your father's business."
Pei Qingshan raised his hand and knocked Pei Jinhui's bowl with his chopsticks, and said with a sullen face: "After eating, take your sister to bathe and coax her to sleep. Don't worry about other things."
Pei Qingshan was just cleaning up the dishes after dinner when Pei Yuanzheng came to his house. He brought Pei Qingshan the message Liu Ping asked him to bring: "Sister Ping asked me to tell you, if you are still a man, get back together with her, otherwise she will just find someone to marry, which is better than waiting for you."
It makes sense, right?
He knew Pei Qingshan too well. Although he was resolute and decisive in other matters, he always felt that he was sorry for Liu Ping emotionally. For so many years, he dared not look directly at Liu Ping's feelings.
Pei Qingshan even felt disgusting at one point. On the one hand, he was living with the previous woman, and on the other hand, he still had feelings for Liu Ping. He felt that he was sorry for these two women.
When he found out that Pei Nannan's mother had cheated on him, he even felt a sense of relief, and his guilt was much lessened.
He felt that as a man, he was the most despicable person. How could he have the face to pursue Liu Ping again after the divorce?
Now that Pei Yuanzheng had provoked him like this, the emotions that had been pent up in his heart for a long time surged up again. He gritted his teeth and asked, "Who else is she going to marry? Who else does she want to marry? When she knew that I had married someone else, she gave up on herself and married a sickly man. She knew that man would not live long, but she did!"
Yes, Liu Ping knew that the man would not live long and that marrying him would mean being a widow, so why did she still insist on marrying him?
She... has been waiting for him for so many years?
Thinking of this, Pei Qingshan felt even more despicable, and his heart beat even more violently than when he was in love before.
How much evil has he committed!
"I, I'll go find her now!" Pei Qingshan ran out of the door in a panic and headed straight towards Liu Ping's house.
The man Liu Ping married lived not far from his home, only three rows of houses away, and it only took three to five minutes to get there by running.
Pei Qingshan ran to the back door of Liu Ping's house without stopping, panting and calming his breathing.
Do you want to knock on the door?
If she came to answer the door, what would he say to her?
Don't want to marry someone else?
Marry him?
His emotions started to get complicated. He had rushed here on impulse and hadn't figured out how to start the conversation. What if he made Liu Ping angry? Would she really find someone to marry out of anger?
What on earth has he done all these years?!
Pei Qingshan raised his hand and slapped himself in the face.
“Bang!”
It was particularly loud in the silent night sky.
As if that wasn't enough, he raised his hand and slapped the other side of the face again.
“Bang!”
It seemed even louder than before.
The noise of two slaps was enough to attract the attention of everyone in the room.
Liu Ping had just finished her meal and was washing dishes at that time. When she heard the abnormal noise, she ran out to see what was going on.
As soon as I got out of the door, I stood there unable to move.
Wasn't she dazzled? Was it really Pei Qingshan?
After so many years, has she finally waited for him?
Liu Ping looked at Pei Qingshan. It was already night time. It was not that he was so busy in the brigade that he forgot the time, nor was it that something happened that needed to be dealt with late at night. He just appeared at the back door of her house like this.
"You, what's the matter?"
