After hanging up the phone, Zhu Kexin's face remained somber for a long time.
Li Huai remarried so soon after I left.
And then there's Yan Sen and Yan Xun, who, despite being their own children, accepted that woman so quickly.
Just thinking about it makes her angry.
She forgot that she was the one who abandoned Li Huai and her own son first.
She knew perfectly well why that person called.
If she hadn't known all this, she wouldn't have chosen to leave Li Huai when he was young and promising, simply because she knew that Li Huai's future was not long.
Moreover, she didn't want to live that kind of hard life anymore.
Thinking of what her lover had written in his letter, she smiled sweetly again.
She's willing to give up everything from her past as long as they can be together.
That's right, the call was made by Yu Huimin, who is in the capital.
Her goal was simple: to encourage Zhu Kexin to make a scene and create trouble for Li Huai's current family.
Unfortunately, she underestimated Zhu Kexin's selfishness and her obsession with love.
Although she was uncomfortable with Li Huai's remarriage, Zhu Kexin, thinking about her own marriage, still couldn't spare the energy to cause trouble for Li Huai.
Considering that Zhao Qinglan was in a special period, Da Wa became extremely obedient.
Even when going out to buy things, he insists on going.
Since Da Wa was willing to run errands, Zhao Qinglan didn't stop him, but only told him to be careful.
After buying groceries at the grocery store, before we even got home, my eldest child was stopped by someone.
"Who are you? Oh, I remember now, you're that auntie." Da Wa suddenly realized.
Isn't this the aunt who often gave me good food and told me how bad my stepmother was during the days my father was away?
Da Wa was initially quite happy, but when he thought about what the aunt in front of him had said, he suddenly became unhappy.
That woman is actually quite nice.
Seeing that the eldest child reminded her of herself, the woman became happy.
"Big brother, you and your brother have had a hard time these days, haven't you?" the woman asked with concern.
"It's alright," the eldest child mumbled.
"What can't you say to your aunt? Look at you, you're so young, and she's already ordering you around." The woman looked at the bottle the older child was carrying with pity and sympathy.
In the past, if someone had shown such "concern" for him, Da Wa would have been very happy.
But now, the more the eldest child listens to the person in front of him, the more unhappy he becomes.
He said in a muffled voice, "She didn't order me around; I went to buy it myself."
The woman was somewhat surprised, but immediately replied, "If you were her biological son, she wouldn't want you to come out in this cold weather."
Is that so? Da Wa thought of Xiao Duo.
At home, Xiaoduo seems to be the same as him and Erwa, right?
Being so young, the eldest child's resolve wavered slightly.
Seeing his expression, the woman continued, "Dawa, don't easily trust that woman. Think about it, you're not her biological children. Your mother could abandon you and leave, so how could she, a stepmother, possibly do better than your mother?"
When his biological mother was mentioned, Da Wa's expression darkened.
Yes, his mother doesn't want him and his brother anymore. That woman isn't their biological mother. Will she continue to be good to them?
The woman became happy when she saw that the eldest child was silent.
"Auntie is saying all this for your own good."
The older child suddenly looked up. "Auntie, then why are you so nice to me and my little brother?"
The woman was stunned, her expression stiffening for a few seconds before she explained, "It's just that Auntie felt sorry for you two. Auntie has something to do, so I'll have to leave now." The woman hurriedly left.
Da Wa returned home with a heavy heart, handed the things he had bought to Zhao Qinglan, and went back to his room, collapsing onto the bed.
Zhao Qinglan found it strange that the child, who was so excited when he went out, came back looking listless.
Thinking of Da Wa's awkwardness, Zhao Qinglan decided to wait until he calmed down before asking.
But first she beckoned Erwa over.
"Go see what's wrong with your brother."
Erwa happily skipped away.
Xiao Duo and Erwa are now inseparable, and she followed them there as well.
Li Huai brought lunch back from the cafeteria, and Zhao Qinglan planned to cook lunch herself in the afternoon.
While Li Huai was considerate towards the children, she couldn't be pretentious.
Feeling much better, I decided to continue cooking.
She prefers to eat better food and doesn't want to settle for the cafeteria's makeshift meals.
"Brother, what's wrong?" Erwa nudged Dawa.
The older child said impatiently, "Annoying."
"Big Brother Da Wa, are you not feeling well either?" Xiao Duo asked.
Hearing Xiaoduo speak, Dawa suddenly looked over.
"Xiaoduo, do you think your mother will always be good to me and Erwa?"
Xiao Duo nodded without hesitation. "Of course I will, my mom is the best."
"But Erwa and I aren't your mother's biological children, are we?" he asked nervously.
“Brother Xiaofei and Sister Xiaoyan aren’t my mom’s biological children either, but my mom is very good to them,” Xiaoduo replied.
Although Xiaofei and Xiaoyan treated her badly, she didn't like them very much.
"Who are Xiaofei and Xiaoyan?" Dawa asked, puzzled.
"It's my brother and sister, from my previous father's family," Xiaoduo answered honestly.
"Then why did your mother take you away?" the older child asked, very curious.
"Because, because they all bully me and my mom," Xiaoduo said angrily.
So that's how it is. So as long as I, my brother, and Dad don't bully Xiaoduo and her mother, and treat them better, they won't leave, right?
Not only will she not leave, she will continue to treat him and Erwa well.
