Chapter 696 Extra: Five-year-old Pingping

Chapter 696 Extra: Five-year-old Pingping

"Aunt Yan Si, please go to the open space and take a look. Ping Ping from your family is fighting with Tiao Tiao."

When Song Fuyu heard this, he quickly put down what he was holding and ran out.

The open space in the compound is like a small square, with a sandpit, grass and some facilities for children to play. Normally, when the children in the compound are not in school, they basically gather here to play, and fights often occur.

When Song Fuyu ran over, she was unsure of what to say about the scene in front of her.

To be precise, he was not fighting with others, but he was unilaterally beating others.

"Yan Chengyao, stop it! Stop hitting me!"

She stepped forward and forcibly separated Pingping from the beaten child on the ground.

"Mom, why are you here?"

"If I don't come, what are you going to do to Tiaotiao?"

Tiaotiao is the little grandson of Master Wu. Although he looks about the same height as Pingping, who is only five years old, he is actually almost three years older than Pingping.

"Mom, we're not fighting, we're competing."

"Jousting? What do you mean?"

"We were just playing house, and Xixi was the bride, so I must be the groom. But brother Tiaotiao disagreed. He said he wanted to be the groom, too. We could only solve it the manly way."

"......"

Song Fuyu was speechless when he heard this. This little guy, whose hair hasn't even grown out yet, claimed to be a man. It was obvious that he learned this from his father Yan Ziyuan.

"Why are you sure you're the groom?"

"Shouldn't we take turns playing games?"

"You can play a few more times. This time you can be the groom, and next time Brother Tiaotiao will be the groom. Look at what you have done to Brother Tiaotiao. His arms are all skinned."

Fortunately, Pingping also understood the rule of not hitting people in the face, so Tiaotiao's face was at least fine.

"no!"

"Why not?"

"It just won't work!"

"Yan Chengyao, you are too overbearing. When playing games, everyone should take turns to play together. You have been occupying the position of the groom. Who will want to play house with you in the future?"

Song Fuyu squatted down and spoke softly in Pingping's ear.

But Pingping was stubborn and unwilling to compromise. She was angry and refused to lower her head or speak.

This was the first time that his eldest son had thrown a tantrum like this. Song Fuyu would not yell at him in public to save his face and planned to talk to him properly after returning home.

"Tiaotiao, are you okay? Can I take you to the infirmary first?"

“Aunt Yan Si, no need, I can go home by myself.”

"Don't blame Pingping. He did nothing wrong. I just can't beat him. When I can beat him, I can be the bridegroom."

"......"

Song Fuyu was speechless again.

Are the kids nowadays so martial in character?

After separating from the children in the open space, Song Fuyu took Pingping home.

"Tell me, why do you have to be the groom?"

The mother and son sat on the sofa, and Song Fuyu asked.

"Because Xixi is the bride, I must be the groom."

"Although Xixi is your good friend, she is also a playmate of Brother Tiaotiao and the others. There are more than ten or twenty other children in the compound. You can't be so possessive of a single friend. This is wrong."

"But she is my wife, she can't be someone else's bride."

"......"

Song Fuyu couldn't quite follow his logic.

"How did Xixi become your wife?"

"Son, you are only five years old! Xixi is half a year younger than you."

"Everyone says Xixi is my daughter-in-law, and we are going to get married in the future."

"Who said that?"

"That's what grandma, auntie, auntie, sister Chenchen, and brother Hanghang said."

"They said that mom and dad are good friends with Uncle Jinkai and Aunt Youyou. Our two families have a good relationship. When mom was in her belly, I got engaged to Xixi."

"I know what engagement means. It means that when we grow up, Xixi and I will get married together."

Song Fuyu knew her son well. She was sure that although Pingping was quick to react to many things and was very smart, he was completely ignorant about emotional matters. After all, he was only a five-year-old child.

"This is just something they spread, don't take it seriously."

"You and Xixi were not engaged when your aunt Youyou and I were in your belly, and your parents would not arrange any engagement for you."

"You are still very young now. Things like engagement and marriage must wait until you grow up and become adults. The most important thing for you to do now is to have fun and study hard."

"Mom doesn't want you to take what others say seriously without distinguishing the truth from the false."

"You are only five years old now, and you are saying that Xixi is your wife. What if Xixi doesn't like you when she grows up and likes someone else? Such nonsense will cause her serious trouble. A girl's reputation is very important."

"As for who your future wife will be, it can be Xixi or another girl, but the prerequisite is that you really like her, not someone who has chosen her for you, do you understand?"

"Mom, I understand. I won't talk nonsense again."

"good!"

Song Fuyu touched his son's head gently.

"Also, although your fight with Brother Tiaotiao today was between men, you did injure him. Mommy will pack some medicine in a bag, and we will go to Brother Tiaotiao's house and say sorry to him, okay?"

Saying sorry to Tiao Tiao is secondary, the main thing is to make my attitude clear to his family.

Although it was just a play between children, it does not mean that all adults will not take it seriously. The compound is a place full of cunning people. If you offend someone accidentally, it may cause a lot of unnecessary trouble in the future.

"Okay, I'll listen to mom."

Song Fuyu packed some ointment for external injuries, took a few apples and a bunch of bananas, and took Pingping to Wu's house.

The person who opened the door was the Wu family's youngest daughter-in-law, Tiao Tiao's mother. Song Fuyu could tell from the expression on her face that she was not in a very happy mood at the moment.

It seems that she made the right decision this time.

"Sister Minli, I'm sorry. When Pingping and Tiaotiao were playing house today, they used men's methods to fight for the position of the groom. Pingping accidentally beat and injured Tiaotiao. So I brought him here to apologize to Tiaotiao."

"It's okay, it's just some scratches, it's just kids playing around, it's normal to get hurt, don't worry too much."

Wang Minli heard her say that, even if she felt resentful and heartbroken about her son's injury, she couldn't get angry with Song Fuyu. After all, she also heard Tiao Tiao say that the reason for the injury was that her son didn't beat the other person.

"Aunt Wang, I'm sorry. I won't hit Brother Tiaotiao again next time."

"no!"

"Pingping, when I get better, I will go to the army with my dad for training. I don't believe I can't beat you!"

Pingping didn't know how to respond. After all, his mother brought him here to apologize, not to restart the fight.

After returning home from Wu's house, Yan Ziyuan also came back from outside.

"Where did you two go?"

"Your son had a duel with the Wu family's grandson and injured him."

"Is it serious?"

"There are some bruises and broken skin on my arm, but it shouldn't be a big deal."

"Haha, you are worthy of being my son."

"You can still laugh!"

"If I hadn't brought Pingping to apologize, I don't know how angry the Wu family's daughter-in-law would be."

"There are very few boys who grew up in a military compound and don't fight. The two sons of the Wu family were beaten by us many times in the past."

"It's okay, you'll grow up after fighting."
