Zhao Qinglan was quite fond of her youngest son when he was very young, but he stopped being so clingy as he got older. Now he's started being clingy again, which Zhao Qinglan seems to enjoy.
Even the sense of loss when her two children, Da Wa and Xiao Duo, left her side lessened.
The third child knew about his mother's danger, but did not tell his older brothers and sisters.
My older siblings are studying far away and can't see their mother right now, so telling her would only make them worry more.
After returning home and resting for a few days, Zhao Qinglan got busy with important matters.
Lan Xin sent over some of her subordinates, and she also took Ding Yu and Liu Dandan out to investigate store locations and the market.
Sometimes when Zhao Qinglan sleeps at night, she has nightmares, in which there are scenes of blood and gore.
Li Huai's professional habits made him very alert when he slept. He would wake up at the slightest noise beside him. When he saw his wife trembling and sweating, he would immediately start shaking her.
"Qinglan, wake up, wake up quickly."
Zhao Qinglan was shaken awake, her face still showing lingering fear.
Upon seeing her husband, she rushed into his arms and hugged him tightly.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." He gently patted his wife's back to comfort her.
Zhao Qinglan felt a little relieved.
"Sleep well, I'll stay with you."
Perhaps because of the sense of security her husband provided, she quickly fell asleep again.
Because her husband was always by her side when she had nightmares, Zhao Qinglan gradually stopped thinking about those things and was able to sleep well at night.
Even so, Li Huai felt very sorry for his wife every time he saw her suffering from nightmares.
As a result, he treated his wife even better.
Zhao Qinglan naturally enjoyed her husband's thoughtfulness.
In Beijing, after a month, Xiaoduo has fully adapted to her university life.
She has a youthful and sweet appearance. Because she has traveled to many places with her mother and seen the world, and even gone abroad, she has her own unique temperament in dealing with people.
In just one month, many boys in her class and even the whole school developed feelings for her.
Although some girls were jealous and disliked Xiaoduo because of her popularity with the opposite sex, perhaps it was the visit of her father and brother on the first day of school, and the subsequent visit of her great-uncle to the school, that changed her.
Even if some people dislike Xiaoduo, no one has done anything to her yet. They are mainly students at school, and even if they wanted to do something, they are too timid to do it easily.
The eldest child had planned to visit his younger sister during the holiday break, but upon arriving at school, they were immediately taken to intensive training and various other courses.
For a whole month, Li didn't have time to contact his family, let alone visit his sister at school.
Knowing that his sister had also come to Beijing to attend university, the other guys in his dorm teased him, telling him to bring his sister out so they could meet her. Da Wa gave him a good beating.
No matter who it is, don't covet his sister.
Zhao Qingju had been wanting Xiaoduo to come over to play, and finally, when Xiaoduo had a weekend off, she decided to go to her aunt's house.
While she was waiting for the bus at the bus stop, some of her classmates saw her and asked her about it.
"Li Xiaoduo, where are you going to play?"
Because many students at the school were visiting Beijing for the first time after being admitted to their school, they were very curious about all parts of the capital. On weekends, they would go out to explore various places in Beijing in twos and threes.
Xiao Duo is quite familiar with Beijing because she often comes to the city with her parents, and she's not in a hurry to do anything.
"I'm going to visit my relatives." She smiled.
"You have relatives in Beijing?" the male student asked, somewhat surprised.
Although Sun Guangming, Xiaoduo's great-uncle, had visited her, not everyone knew that.
"Is it the elder who visited you last time?" someone who knew a little about the situation asked.
"No, I'm going to my aunt's this time."
Just then, her bus arrived, and Xiaoduo said goodbye to her classmates and got on the bus.
As soon as she left, several classmates started talking about it.
"I remember she wasn't from the capital, right? How come she has so many relatives in the capital?"
"I remember you're not from the capital."
Now everyone is speculating even more about Xiaoduo's family background.
Actually, if you really think about it, Xiaoduo could be considered a native of the capital, since Li Huai's father was originally from the capital, but his household registration was transferred to the army after he joined the army.
Even if it weren't for this, Zhao Qinglan already had a house and property in the capital, and it would have been easy for her to change the household registration of other family members to that of the capital, but she just felt it was unnecessary.
Xiao Duo comes from a wealthy family, but she is still very approachable in front of her classmates. She doesn't show any arrogance of a rich girl, which makes it difficult for some people to say anything bad about her.
Xiaoduo took one bus transfer before finally arriving at her aunt's house. Outside her aunt's house, she bought some things.
Although she was very close to her aunt, it was her first time visiting since arriving in the capital, and as a junior, it wouldn't be proper for her to arrive empty-handed. Bringing something was the proper etiquette.
The door opened quickly after a knock.
Knowing that her niece was on holiday and coming over today, Zhao Qingju had been looking forward to it.
Seeing her makes me beam with joy.
"You're here, why did you bring things? Why are you being so polite with your aunt?"
"Auntie, Uncle," Xiaoduo quickly called out.
Upon entering, I noticed the little one wasn't there and became curious.
"Where's my younger brother?"
“Your brother went to his grandma’s, which is good for me to rest.”
She was completely at ease with her niece.
As soon as Xiaoduo sat down, Zhao Qingju offered her all sorts of food and asked her about her experiences at school.
For example, whether your roommates are easy to get along with, whether you are used to living in the dormitory, and whether the food is good.
