Chapter 13



Lu Haici sat aside, watching Ji Yang playing with the other kids. He looked dull and his eyes were dull.

"Lu Haici, come and play." Ji Yang turned around and waved at his friends who looked listless.

Lu Haici shook his head, "I don't want to play." He was naughty today and had a fight with the kids in the kindergarten. Teacher Qian said he would call the parents. If his mother came, would she be angry? Adults like well-behaved children. He hurt Qin Ming and was considered a naughty child. What if his mother doesn't like him anymore?

But Qin Ming was too mean. He said his mother was not his mother and that his stepmother was not good. Mom is obviously his mother. Dad said that when he was going to marry a new mother, he asked his father if the new mother was his mother. Dad said yes, so Mom is his mother. Moreover, Mom is very good to him. She will make him fried rice and mashed potatoes, bathe him and wash his hair, and hold him to sleep.

Yesterday, he still remembers the feeling of Mom holding him to bed. It was very warm.

Mom is obviously a good mother, and Qin Ming is a bad boy.

But... Lu Haici's eyes slowly turned red. He is also a bad boy. If he hits Qin Ming, it will embarrass Mom. Thinking of this, Lu Haici lowered his head and silently shed tears. The tears fell to the ground drop by drop, and soon the ground below was wet.

"What's wrong?" Suddenly, a gentle voice sounded in his ears, and then a big hand touched his head.

Lu Haici raised his head abruptly and looked at the woman squatting in front of him. His tears burst out like a river: "Mom..." Tears poured out of his eyes drop by drop, and it also blurred his eyes.

"Don't cry, don't cry." Lin gently hugged Lu Haici. As soon as she came in, she saw the little boy sitting alone with his head down. After she walked in, she heard his low sobs, and her heart suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. This child reflected her childhood. When she was young, she was also like him, licking her wounds alone. Even if grandma loves her, there are times when she can’t take care of her. “Our little Haici is a little man, how can a little man cry? Don’t cry, don’t cry…” She hugged Lu Haici, let him lean on her arms, and patted his shoulders gently.

“Wuwuwu…” Lu Haici cried even louder. He remembered that when other children in the yard cried, their mother would also hug them and pat their shoulders like this, “Mom, Wuwuwu…” But soon, his mother might never hug him like this again. His mother must not know yet that he beat Qin Ming. So Lu Haici cried even louder.

Although Lin Qingqing didn't understand why Lu Haici was crying because he was worried that she would abandon him, she understood the child's inner grievances. Lu Cheng was not around, and she was his stepmother, so she felt that the child was crying because of fear and anxiety. To be honest, she blamed Lu Cheng a little bit. In fact, it was not a complaint, but she felt that he was not a qualified father. Lu Haici was the only relative here, and he actually went on a mission, leaving Lu Haici alone in the family compound.

Even if the family compound was safe and there would be no criminals or human traffickers who would hurt Lu Haici, didn't he know? In this world, there is a kind of hurt that is spoken by people, and there is another kind of hurt that is silent.

Maybe Lu Cheng is an excellent national soldier, but he is definitely not an excellent father. No, he is not even qualified. Lin Qingqing originally thought about how to deal with the relationship between her and Lu Cheng, but now she suddenly feels that such a relationship does not need to be dealt with.

Let Lu Cheng go on missions 365 days a year, and she and Lu Haici love each other. This kind of "widowed marriage" is good. Anyway, she has no plans to get married. Isn't it the best of both worlds to raise a well-behaved child?

She already knew from Teacher Qian and Xu Huijuan that the child fought with Qin Ming to protect herself. She was very touched and liked the feeling of being protected in this way. Since her grandmother passed away a year ago, her heart has never been touched again. Sometimes, she even felt a little resistant when she saw her biological parents and second-born sister coming to her hometown. But now, she met Lu Haici. Children are innocent and kind, and they protect themselves directly. Lin Qingqing felt that perhaps, she traveled through the book just to meet this child.

"Okay, don't cry. I didn't buy meat today. Although I can't make meat buns, I bought tofu. Let's make tofu pancakes, okay?" In fact, tofu buns are also delicious. Compared with meat buns, Lin Qingqing prefers to eat tofu buns, especially the tofu soup buns in Shengzhou in the later generations. She likes it the most. But it takes some time for the flour to ferment, and it's too late to make buns now.

Lu Haici was crying loudly. When he heard his mother's words, he was like the water from the faucet was suddenly turned off. He raised his head and looked at Lin Qingqing with tears in his eyes: "Make buns?"

"Yes, didn't you say that you like milk candy and meat buns the most? As for the milk candy, I bought it, but you can only eat two a day. Eating too much will cause tooth decay, and if you have tooth decay, you are not a little man. As for the meat buns, although I didn't buy meat today, I can go to the market to buy meat tomorrow. If I don’t buy meat tomorrow, I will go again the day after tomorrow. I will definitely let our little Haici eat meat buns." Lin Qingqing got up and helped Lu Haici up. "Now let's pack your schoolbag and go to the clinic to see the wound on your face."

Lu Haici was stunned. He looked at Lin Qingqing blankly. Mom said she bought him some candy, and she would buy him some meat buns when she got some meat, but didn't Mom dislike him? He beat Qin Ming and caused trouble for Mom, didn't Mom hate him?

"What's wrong?" Seeing the child in a daze, Lin gently wiped his face with her sleeve, thinking in her heart that she had to prepare a few handkerchiefs for him.

"Mom, you... aren't you angry?" Lu Haici asked blankly.

Lin smiled and asked, "Why should I be angry?"

"Because... because I hit Qin Ming, I fought, and I'm not a good child anymore." Lu Haici said, "I heard other children's mothers say that they like good children."

Lin said lightly, "I just like children like Lu Haici. You fought with others to protect me, which shows that you are a filial and good child. Filial and good children are also good children, so I like you very much."

Hearing his mother say that she liked him very much, Lu Haici's eyes suddenly lit up and his little face slowly turned red. The originally gray child now looked brighter, like a shining little sun. "Really...really? Mom likes me?"

Lin Qingqing: "Of course it's true, let's go, pack your schoolbag, we're going back."

"Yeah." Lu Haici responded loudly. He packed his things, then put on his schoolbag, and walked out of the classroom holding Lin Qingqing's hand.

Ji Yang watched, and hurriedly picked up his schoolbag and chased after him: "Lu Haici, are you going to school?"

"Yeah, my mother took me to the clinic to see the wound on my face, and then went home to make tofu cakes for me." Lu Haici's tone was a little boastful.

"I'll go back with you." Ji Yang and Lu Haici are best friends, and seeing that Lu Haici is going home, he wants to follow him.

"No." Lin Qingqing said, "You haven't finished school yet, so you can't go home unless your mother comes to pick you up." If Ji Yang follows them and something happens, she won't be able to explain to Ji Yang's parents, so let him stay in the kindergarten. However, "Little Ji Yang, thank you for helping Lu Haici today. When you get out of school at noon, I'll invite you to our house for dinner."

"Ah?" Ji Yang's eyes lit up, "Are you going to treat me to dinner?"

Lu Haici also looked at Lin Qingqing with bright eyes.

Lin Qingqing said, "Yes, you helped Lu Haici, so I'm treating you to dinner to express my gratitude. I also hope that you can continue to play with Lu Haici in the future." Ji Yang is the male protagonist, and it's not a bad thing for Lu Haici to be on good terms with him. Of course, her original intention was not to let Lu Haici curry favor with Ji Yang, but they were already good friends, so she hoped that they would continue to play together. If they were not good friends, even if Ji Yang was the male lead, Lin Qingqing would not let Lu Haici play with him. Children make friends according to their own preferences.

"Hey, then I'll come to play with Lu Haici after school at noon." Ji Yang was very excited when he heard that Lin Qingqing wanted to treat him to dinner, and felt that he was treated very seriously. Children like to be treated like this, instead of being treated as children.

"Then Lu Haici and I will wait for you at home." Lin Qingqing waved at him, "See you later, little Ji Yang."

"Ji Yang, see you later." Lu Haici also imitated his mother and waved to his friends.

Seeing this, Ji Yang couldn't help but imitate them and waved: "See you later." Ji Yang waved while watching his little friend leave with his mother, and he also smiled foolishly. Although he was very young and didn't understand, he was very happy. In the past, he and Lu Haici were both children without mothers. Later, he had a mother, and now Lu Haici also has a mother. This is great.

Lin Qingqing brought Lu Haici to the clinic: "Hello, doctor." There were two male doctors in the clinic. The army's clinic is not big, but it can solve medical emergencies, because the doctors in the clinic will follow the battlefield to perform tasks at any time, so there are more male doctors here. Or, there are more male medical staff.

"Hello, comrade." One of the male medical staff stood up, "Comrade, what can I do for you?"

Lin gently pushed Lu Haici in front of him: "It's like this, my son's face was scratched, and I want to apply some medicine to him."

My son? When Lu Haici heard her say this, his eyes suddenly widened.
