Chapter 93: I used to want to be a loving father
Shen Meng felt her temples throbbing. She covered her forehead with shaking hands. She felt dizzy, blurry-eyed, and stuffy in her chest. She turned her head and looked at Lu Zhenping, who also had a gloomy face. She breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, there was someone who could bear the burden with her, so that she wouldn't be angry to death alone.
She had already said those harsh words to Mingliang last night, but the bastard didn't listen to her. She was trying to pull them away from the crooked path. These two children seemed to be kind, but she didn't expect to give her such a big surprise.
Lu Zhenping also felt a headache. He didn't dare to do such a stupid thing when he was a child. These two stupid things are really brave!
Seeing the couple's unhappy faces, Uncle Guai hurried to persuade them.
"Oh, fortunately, their grandfather didn't bother with them and let them go after a scolding. But Jiaxuan is a bit troubled. His wife's hair looks like it was chewed by a dog. No wonder Jiaxuan is angry. And when I came here today, I heard that Jiaxuan's wife is pregnant and is making a fuss at home. What's going on?"
Shen Meng felt nervous when she heard Uncle Guai say this.
"Uncle Guai, what does it mean that Jiaxuan is having a hard time? What about Mingyang and Mingliang? Did they get beaten? And how did you find out that they did it?"
Lu Zhenping coughed twice and said, "You probably don't know how loud the noise is when the iron pot is smashed. These two guys must have been caught on the spot."
"Well, this is what happened. Jiaxuan did hit them, but he didn't hit them hard. Changzhu was protecting them, so he didn't get too hard."
Shen Meng turned around and glared at Lu Zhenping, as if he was the one who beat the children. No wonder Shen Meng felt annoyed. Ever since this man came home yesterday, there have been constant things going on at home. It was really unlucky.
"They have already been beaten. You can't beat them again when you go home. After all, these two children feel sorry for you as their mother. You were beaten so badly by their grandfather yesterday, and Jiaxuan's wife pulled out a lock of Mingfang's hair. It's normal for them to be angry."
How could Shen Meng not know that these two children really felt sorry for her and Mingfang, but that was why she felt sad. Adults have their own way of solving problems, and it's not right for children to take the lead. She would never let these two children repeat the same mistakes in their previous life.
"We know what's going on, Uncle Guai. Don't worry."
After Lu Zhenping finished speaking, Uncle Guai turned around and hurried to get on the bus. He said this in advance because he was afraid that Lu Jiaxuan would come to their house and the two children would be beaten by their parents, which would make them sad again.
Mingyang, Mingliang and Mingfang have been dependent on each other for so many years. How could the two older brothers watch their sisters being bullied?
The two people on the ox cart saw their home getting closer and closer, and their anger grew stronger and stronger.
"I think we should not be so anxious. It is normal for children to be a little rebellious. After all, their mother and sister have been wronged, don't you think?"
"Well, I just came back from the army. I haven't seen them for two or three years. I still can't be too strict, otherwise the children won't be close to me. The army's methods can't be used on children. I wanted to be a loving father before."
The two of them finished talking, and the scene suddenly became quiet. In the corner where no one noticed, the two held hands tightly.
After arriving home, Uncle Guai led the cow away as fast as possible. Although he was worried about Mingyang and Mingliang, he thought that Lu Zhenping had returned home and would educate them well. There were still a lot of dirty things at home, so he should hurry home!
Lu Zhenping raised his hand to support Shen Meng, but before he could reach out his hand, he saw that Shen Meng, who was still a little dizzy in the morning, rushed into the main room at a brisk pace. He was reminded of the time when Ma Xiang's kid was beaten by his wife, and the sister-in-law was also anxious.
He walked to the door of the main room and saw a broom on the ground. He looked into the room and kicked it far away.
The two people sat on the stool for a long time without saying anything. Lu Zhenping looked at Shen Meng sitting on the wooden stool and panting, and swallowed his saliva nervously.
Sure enough, an angry woman is as scary as a tiger.
"It's not time to go home yet, why don't you go in and lie down first? Didn't you listen to the doctor's instructions? You should rest more now. Leave the education of the children to me. You've been worrying about it for so many years. Let me do it this time."
"Just take my previous words as bullshit. I shouldn't have hit them many times in the past. Today they really went too far. No matter how much your father and Zhou Jiaojiao went too far, they are adults, and this is an adult matter. It's not their turn to hit them. If we don't teach them a lesson this time, what will happen in the future? I tell you, you must give them a complete childhood. I... I'll find you a suitable weapon, wait for me."
Lu Zhenping: "..."
There is no need to be so cruel. Education is definitely necessary, but it is better not to hit them when you can avoid it!!!
Shen Meng was so angry that she thought it was better to beat him now than to die a miserable death in the future. Zhou Jiaojiao was the heroine. In this world, she still had the aura of a heroine. She was a person from another world and was not afraid of this thing, but a few children might not be able to withstand it.
After she entered the house, she pretended to search through the boxes and cabinets, but she actually found a red five-pointed star box from the space, and inside it was a belt with a buckle.
She left the room, put the box on the table, and said in a sharp voice: "You'd better stop being that loving father. This is what I bought for you at the supply and marketing cooperative before. Now it comes in handy. Go and let them see how majestic you are as a father."
Lu Zhenping's eyebrows moved. He looked at the box on the table, with an indescribable emotion in his heart. He opened it and saw that it was a black leather belt with a five-pointed star printed on the silver leather buckle, which was very beautiful.
"Is this bought specially for me? When did you buy it? Why did you think of buying this for me? It's expensive, right?"
"Now is not the time to talk about this. I told you, did you remember?"
Lu Zhenping didn't hear it. His heart and eyes were now filled with the belt in his hand. It was a free belt, and it was not cheap. It cost five or six yuan. It feels good and looks like real leather. It's really good.
"Shen Meng, you are a good comrade and a good daughter-in-law."
"Huh???"
Lu Zhenping had a smile on his face. The anger he had just had because of his two sons had now disappeared without a trace. Although his sons were a little rebellious, his daughter-in-law was always considerate. His previous messy thoughts were really a bit groundless.
