Chapter 272 Mom is injured
After everyone in the room left, He Xu sighed and took Shen Tang's hand to comfort him: "You really worked hard this time."
Chen Tang shook his head: "I can't help much. When you are discharged from the hospital, let's invite Comrade Ji and Captain Lu to dinner."
This time, thanks to those two people, He Xu was able to return safely.
He Xu raised his eyes to look at Chen Tang, his eyes full of uncontrollable heartache, his fingertips with calluses gently stroked her fair skin: "You've lost weight. I promised to protect you, but I didn't expect that I would always be the one to cause you trouble."
Chen Tang held his hand and chuckled: "Isn't it like this between husband and wife? Only by supporting each other and understanding each other can we go a long way. If I have to rely on you to solve everything, how tired would you be? I prefer to fight side by side with you, and I also like the feeling of you trusting me."
If you cannot even grow yourself and have to rely on others to solve and help with everything, how far can this relationship go?
Although she is timid, she is by no means a compromising person.
He Xu was bright and gentle. He rubbed her hand like a big dog and called her softly, as if he wanted to vent all his love and affection: "Tangtang, Tangtang, I like you so much."
He Zhi, who was playing with a toy next to him, heard this and moved his little butt to squeeze in between the two of them, saying in a baby voice, "I like mommy, too!"
After saying that, he leaned forward and kissed his mother's face.
He Xu's face darkened immediately: "Why are you everywhere?"
He Zhi rolled his eyes at him and said, "Dad is so stupid. I have been here the whole time."
He Xu poked him between the eyebrows and said with a straight face: "Go play nearby. Dad hasn't seen Mom for a long time. Don't come over to disturb us, understand?"
He Zhi pouted and walked to the side unwillingly.
He can see his mother every day, but his father can't. Since his father is so pitiful, he will let him go this time.
Chen Tang couldn't help but chuckle and pulled his hand back: "It's almost noon, I'll go to the cafeteria to buy you some food."
He Xu followed her with his eyes and said with a smile, "Okay."
As soon as Chen Tang left, he called He Zhi over. The little guy didn't understand, "What are you doing?"
"Tell Dad, has anyone bullied you and Mom during this period?"
Although Chen Tang said nothing, He Xu was not a fool. After he came back, some people who were not from their group came to see him, and they were looking around and no one knew what they were up to.
At first he thought the news of his return was too shocking and someone came to see out of curiosity if it was true.
But it is common for soldiers to get injured. It would be fine if some aunts were just shocked and curious, but the fact that an unfamiliar soldier was also wandering outside showed that something had obviously happened.
The little guy is very vindictive. If his father doesn’t ask him, he won’t remember it. But if his father asks him, he will complain.
"Yes, many people said that the father died. They also said that the mother left the baby and went away with someone else. The mother even had a fight with someone else!"
He Xu's eyes were slightly cold: "Fighting? Your mother is such a weak person, they must have gone too far, so she couldn't help but fight."
The little guy thought of the fight between him and Xiao Zhuang, scratched his nose guiltily, and said in a high voice: "That's right, it's all because of Xiao Zhuang's parents who went too far!"
He Xu glanced at him, and the little guy shrank his neck and rolled his eyes: "Mom is still injured."
Without caring whether this little guy caused trouble, he was shocked for a moment: "Where is he injured?"
The little guy glanced at him, lowered his head and whispered, "Hand."
He Xu was not in the mood to care whether the little guy was lying or not. He wondered if his eyes were injured. How come he didn’t even notice that Chen Tang’s hand was injured?
Chen Tang came back with a lunch box and bought chicken soup and two dishes. As soon as she arrived at the ward, she saw He Xu staring at her hand.
She smiled: "What's wrong?"
He Xu waved at her, waited for her to come over, frowned, held her hand and looked left and right. It was not the palm, but the elbow?
Yes, Chen Tang was wearing long sleeves, perhaps because she was afraid that he would see it.
He pushed up her sleeves, and her arms were as white as jade, slender and soft, without a single scar.
No injuries?
Is it the position of the arms, or the position of the shoulders?
Seeing his worried look, Shen Tang couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
He Xu said solemnly: "If you are hurt anywhere, don't bear it, tell me."
Chen Tang was also confused: "I'm not injured?"
He Xu: "Then Atang said..."
Wait, is this guy lying to him?
He Zhi hugged his little toy, huddled in the corner, and faced the two men with his butt.
As long as he can't see, mom and dad can't see him *^O^*.
He Xu came back to his senses after seeing his little appearance, and gritted his teeth in anger: "Come here."
He Zhi shouted: "What? Baby can't hear me."
He Xu held his forehead with his hand: "...This kid doesn't look like me, he must look like grandpa."
Chen Tang couldn't help laughing, walked over, picked up the child and put him next to the bed, the big and small staring at each other.
He Zhi shrank his neck and smiled flatteringly: "Dad, can you please not punish me or hit me? I don't want to eat bamboo sticks fried with meat, nor do I want to watch your whip that makes me successful."
He Xu's face darkened: "When did I ever hit you?"
At most, I slapped him on the butt twice. How could it hurt?
He Zhi wanted to cry but didn't: "But Xiao Zhu and the others said that you would beat me like this when I grow up. You don't beat me now because the baby is still young."
"If dictation doesn't work, your dad isn't the type to physically punish children." He Xu saw that his little expression was as cute as Shen Tang's, and touched his furry little head lovingly.
The little guy was finally happy: "Daddy is second best."
He Xu knew who the best person in this little guy's heart was without even asking.
He was not jealous. Chen Tang gave birth to him and he was often not at home. The little guy was brought up by Chen Tang. If the person he loved best in his heart was not Chen Tang, he would have taught this brat a lesson.
"You just said your mother was injured. Where was she injured?"
He Zhi glanced at the two adults' faces and saw that they were both smiling gently, which showed that they were in a good mood.
He said angrily: "When my mother carried me home, her hands were sore from exhaustion. Isn't this an injury?"
Chen Tang was speechless and tapped his head: "If you keep talking nonsense, mom will punish you."
The little guy watched his mother open the lunch box, and whispered in his father's ear: "Actually, I saw that mom's palms were red, just like when I was beaten, but it's healed now. But the baby knows that mom's palms hurt, and she secretly rubbed them several times."
He Xu gently hugged the little guy: "You are right, but as long as your mother is happy, it is a medal."
The palms of his hands were red from beating him. He knew that Shen Tang must have been holding something to suppress the other person, and he was the winner.
When he thought of the scene of Chen Tang beating someone with a stick, He Xu couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips.
