Li Qingge really brought them one "surprise" after another. Zhang Xiulan was glad that she didn't have a heart disease, otherwise she would have been scared to death by her daughter!
After confirming again and again that Li Hanting was truly kind to Qingge, Zhang Xiulan finally felt relieved.
"He's sitting in a car for such a long time with a broken back!" Zhang Xiulan frowned. "No, he has to lie down on the kang! This is ridiculous!"
It takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone, not even a day less.
Zhang Xiulan went straight to the main room and told Li Hanting to lie down on the kang.
The Li family father and son were stunned. Why would they let someone lie down for no reason?!
Li Hanting understood that his aunt knew about his fracture, and he pursed his lips and said, "Aunt, I'm fine."
"What do you mean it's okay? Don't take advantage of your youth and say it's okay. If you don't recover well, you will develop chronic illness!" Zhang Xiu Lan insisted that he lie down in the house.
"Are you sick?" Li Qingdong looked at Li Hanting with a strange expression. The man looked quite normal.
"What disease! You're injured." Ran Lijuan was speechless after hearing what her man said. She glared at him again. It was better for him to shut up today!
Li Jianping didn't ask in a hurry. After Zhang Xiulan "forced" the man to lie down in the house, he asked Qingge, "How did you get injured?"
"He was injured while saving Qingge. He has a broken back," Ran Lijuan said first. "How could he take such a long car ride to accompany Qingge back just a few days after the fracture? If the fracture doesn't heal well, he'll be in pain every time it's cloudy or rainy, and it might even affect his future!"
After listening to his daughter-in-law, Li Jianping decided that letting his daughter live with an old comrade was the right decision. He hadn't expected to encounter such danger. If Li Hanting hadn't been there that night, wouldn't his daughter have been in danger?
"Go and call your grandfather!" It turned out that it was the grandson of his old comrade-in-arms, who asked the old man to find his grandson-in-law.
"Okay." Li Qingdong was about to leave when Zhang Xiulan came out of the room and called him, "Wait a moment."
"What's wrong, Mom?"
"Go buy a few pounds of beef shanks, the freshest ones, and a few pounds of beef too!" Zhang Xiulan said as she went out of the house to get money for him. "Come back quickly after you buy them, I'm in a hurry to cook!"
"Oh, okay." Li Qingdong knew without asking that it must be bought for Li Hanting. He was his sister's savior.
"Just go buy the meat, and then Xiaohao can go call his great-grandfather." Ran Lijuan spoke up when she saw that he was too busy.
"Yeah." Li Qingdong took the money and meat coupons and went straight to the town. Beef could only be bought in the town. It would take him about an hour to go back and forth on his bicycle, so he had to hurry.
Ran Lijuan and Zhang Xiu Lan are busy cooking. We must have a good meal at noon today!
Li Jianping wanted to go into the house and talk to Li Hanting again, but thinking that his daughter was quite quick in bringing the person back directly, he planned to keep a close eye on his daughter.
Who knew Qingge was in the room with him, and it would be awkward for him, as a father, to go in (ー_ー)!!
Li Hanting entered Qingge's room and half-lay on her bed. The bedding and sheets were clean and tidy, and he could even smell the comfortable scent of the sun.
"Tell Auntie, I'm really fine." How could I lie on the bed without even having the chance to behave properly on my first visit?!
"Just lie down if my mom tells you to." Li Qingge's lips twitched unconsciously, and then he said, "You brought too many things! They scared my parents."
"I prepared some myself, and my mom prepared the rest." They both prepared, but they ended up preparing too much! The trunk was almost full, and he even considered driving a military off-road vehicle back home, but because it would be too conspicuous, he decided against it.
"Gugu, gugu" Xiaobao came into the house and climbed up Li Qingge's thigh.
Seeing that she was struggling to climb, Li Qingge put his hands under her armpits and gently lifted her up.
The little man sat steadily on the bed.
"She looks a bit like you." Li Hanting looked at the soft and sticky little white ball. He had never thought a child could be so cute, chubby and soft, calling out to people.
It would be more accurate to say that she looks like Li Qingdong rather than Li Qingge. The two aunt and niece are somewhat similar.
If he and Qingge had a daughter in the future...
Li Hanting can now imagine the warm scene of being clung to by his daughter.
"Don't suck your fingers, they're dirty." Li Qingge took the fingers out of Xiaobao's mouth. Xiaobao pouted and was about to cry. Li Hanting quickly said, "Uncle will give you some candy, okay?"
Little Bao's bean-sized tears hung directly on his eyelashes, trembled, and then fell down.
"Where are you going?" Li Qingge asked puzzledly when she saw him about to get out of bed.
"Go get some candy." Li Hanting said in a light voice.
"I'll get it. Just lie down." Li Qingge held his shoulders to prevent him from moving. "Where is it?"
"It's in the pile of gift boxes outside."
"I'll go."
Li Qingge put Xiaobao into the bed and sat on the edge of the bed to prevent him from falling.
The outside of the gift box had "candy" written on it. When Li Qingge opened it, all kinds of candies came into view.
There are fruit flavors and milk candy flavors. Xiaobao is too young to eat hard candies, but milk candies are okay.
Li Qingge took two pieces of candy back. Xiaobao had never eaten candy in his life.
Li Qingge peeled off the candy wrapper, pinched the candy and brought it to Xiaobao's mouth. He only let her take a small bite, and she immediately wanted to grab the candy in Li Qingge's hand happily.
"Gugu, gugu, yes"
Li Qingge placed the candy in Xiaobao's palm and asked her to hold it tightly and not put all the candy into her mouth.
Li Hanting's eyes softened as he looked at the aunt and niece.
After a while, Xiaohao and his great-grandfather came back, and their eyes widened when they saw the candies in the gift box on the ground!
"Eat!" Old man Li smiled at his greedy look and followed Li Jianping into the house.
Li Hao didn't dare to take more, so he just took one candy.
In the room, Old Man Li recognized Li Hanting at a glance and found that he looked quite like the old Li when he was young!
To be precise, Li Hanting is more handsome than his grandfather!!
"Grandpa!" Li Hanting wanted to stand up and salute, but Old Man Li waved his hand and told him to just sit down and talk.
"Your grandfather is really amazing. He has become a senior leader!"
Old man Li chose to retire from the army and return to his hometown to get married and have children. We have been in contact over the years. When we were young, we contacted quite frequently, but the frequency became less as we got older.
The main reason is that they are old and their eyesight is poor now, and they need help from others to write and read letters, which is too troublesome.
"If Grandpa Li hadn't chosen to retire that year, he might be like my grandfather now!"
Li Hanting had heard Grandpa Li mention Old Man Li, and it was a pity that he retired from the army.
"Oh no! There's nothing to regret. I have old people above me and young children below me. I can't live a carefree life outside alone!" Life in the army is hard, but it's not as hard as it is at home. During the hardest times, we can't even have food to eat. Old Man Li made the decision out of helplessness, but he doesn't regret it!
