Chapter 23: Men need to be older and more experienced to be caring
Su Qiao looked at the three children and felt a pang in her heart.
The three kids were so skinny that their bones were visible on their bodies. They were much shorter than other kids their age. The oldest, Ye Yang, was already six years old, but was not even as tall as Su Qiao's waist.
The second and third children are even smaller and shorter. Because they are thin, the eyes of these three little guys appear particularly big.
Su Qiao has seen what the children will look like eight years later, and she has also imagined in her mind what they will look like now.
But she never imagined that the children would be so thin.
When she came back last life, the children also ate at various houses in the village, and the situation was much better than it is now.
Su Qiao felt a little more sympathy in her heart.
She reached out to hold Dabao and Erbao's hands.
But as soon as she moved, the two children seemed to have sensed her intention and quickly hid behind Qin Zhengrong.
Dabao subconsciously stood in front of Erbao.
When Erbao saw that his sister was protecting him, he also moved his short legs and wanted to stand in front to protect his sister.
Su Qiao felt sad for a while.
In their previous lives, these three children grew up helping each other and relying on each other.
It's a pity that the hemp rope only picks out the smallest details, and misfortune only finds the unfortunate people.
These three good kids ended up with such a tragic ending when they grew up.
Dabao and Erbao stared at her vigilantly with their big, rolling eyes, and even Sanbao hid in Qin Zhengrong's arms.
Liu Chunhua next to them rolled her eyes, then quickly pulled her daughter Sun Fangfang forward, one holding Dabao and the other holding Erbao.
"Hey, what are you doing? You've scared the child.
Let me do it. How can a young wife like you take care of a child?
After the parents of these three children died, I have been taking care of them..."
As they spoke, the mother and daughter pulled the child towards the washstand.
Su Qiao clearly saw that both children were grimacing in pain, and their little bodies were trembling, not sure if it was from the pain or fear.
Su Qiao felt furious. After her sister and brother-in-law passed away, they had been the ones taking care of the baby. How could they have taken care of the baby like this?
In front of her and Qin Zhengrong, he didn't care about the child's feelings at all and just pulled the child away. I don't know how he treats the child normally.
Just as Su Qiao was about to speak, she heard Qin Zhengrong's cold voice, "Let go!"
Liu Chunhua and Sun Fangfang were both frightened by Qin Zhengrong's overwhelming aura and shuddered.
"You're hurting the child, don't you know?"
Su Qiao then spoke.
Under Qin Zhengrong's extremely oppressive gaze, Liu Chunhua and Sun Fangfang reluctantly let go of the children's hands.
Su Qiao stepped forward, half squatted down, and looked at the two children tenderly, "Dabao, Erbao, auntie will take you to wash your hands, okay?"
She gently took the two children's hands.
Two pairs of big dark eyes looked at her, and when she grabbed their hands, the two children shuddered subconsciously.
Su Qiao smiled gently and said softly: "Don't be afraid, your aunt has made a lot of delicious food for you, including stewed pork bones, pork ribs with potatoes, meatball soup, eggplant stew, and..."
The two children are so thin. I don’t know how long it has been since they had a full meal.
When he heard Su Qiao calling out the names of the dishes, his eyes lit up and he swallowed unconsciously. For a moment, he even forgot his fear of Su Qiao, a stranger.
Su Qiao put the soap she had just bought yesterday on the hands of the two children.
Liu Chunhua didn’t know how long it had been since she had washed her child’s hands properly. The first time she applied soap, it felt slippery and she couldn’t produce any foam. It was only after the second time that bubbles formed.
Su Qiao took Sanbao from Qin Zhengrong's arms. While demonstrating how to wash hands to Sanbao, she also taught the correct steps of washing hands to Dabao and Erbao.
When Sanbao first came into her arms, he was a little timid, but gradually, he was not afraid at all.
He even leaned into her arms, sniffed hard, and said with a smile, "Smells good."
Su Qiao smiled gently and rubbed the little guy's head lovingly.
The little guy suddenly giggled with joy.
Qin Zhengrong looked at Su Qiao interacting with the children, and his stern face couldn't help but soften, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
This heartwarming scene hurt Liu Chunhua's eyes. She gritted her teeth fiercely, secretly spat, and whispered: "Bah, you vixen!"
Sun Fangfang was a little anxious, and she grabbed her mother's arm and shook it, "Mom, Brother Qin is married, what should I do?"
Liu Chunhua's eyes rolled around, "Why are you panicking? Can't you still get divorced now that you're married?"
There was a man in their village who recently divorced his wife because she couldn't have children.
Sun Fangfang muttered softly, "Even if Brother Qin is divorced, he's just a second-hand man!"
Liu Chunhua glared at her and poked her forehead with her hand, "You know shit! A man needs to be older and more experienced to be caring.
Besides, your mother has asked around for you. Qin Zhengrong is now a battalion commander. He is the only such young battalion commander in the entire army. Who knows how high a rank he will get in the future!
If you marry her, you will be an official's wife, do you understand?"
Sun Fangfang's shy gaze fell on Qin Zhengrong again.
In fact, she didn't care that Qin Zhengrong was a second-hand man. She would be willing to marry such a handsome and capable man, let alone a second-hand one, even a third-hand one.
But she was a little unwilling.
It was obviously she who fell in love with Brother Qin first, so how come that woman got there first?
Her mother was right, that woman was a bitch!
Su Qiao watched the three kids wash their hands, then picked up Sanbao and said, "Dabao, Erbao, let's go eat some meat!"
Dabao and Erbao swallowed their saliva, looked at Su Qiao in disbelief, and then looked at Qin Zhengrong cautiously.
Dabao asked timidly in his baby voice: "Uncle, can we eat meat too?"
Qin Zhengrong frowned slightly.
Dabao immediately shrank back in fear and said timidly, "Uncle, Dabao doesn't have to eat meat, but... can you give Erbao and Sanbao some..."
Su Qiao quickly turned back, squatted down and comforted Dabao, saying, "Be good, Dabao. Your brothers have meat to eat, and Dabao has meat to eat too. Auntie cooked a lot, so everyone can have a full meal."
Qin Zhengrong also realized that he had just scared the child, so he softened his expression and asked, "Dabao, didn't you have meat to eat before?"
Before Dabao could say anything, Liu Chunhua rushed over and said with a smile, "Comrade Qin, what are you talking about?
How could I possibly fail to provide food for the children?
You don’t know how picky these three kids are about food…”
"Shut up!"
Before she could finish her words, Su Qiao could no longer bear it, "We asked Dabao, not you!"
Liu Chunhua was immediately displeased. "Hey, why are you like this? The parents of these three children have been dead for more than a year. I worked hard to raise them. Even if I have no credit, I have worked hard.
Why do you talk to me like that?
