"Chirp chirp chirp..."
The fluffy little chicks wandered back and forth on the oak table, occasionally pecking at the hand that Chen Suyin reached out to touch.
"Grandma's porridge?" Luo Yan didn't expect that her grandmother, who gave her expensive toys, could be coaxed with just two chicks.
Shen Suyin, who had just been crying and refusing to be comforted, and was threatening to pack her things and leave, now had tears on her eyelashes but was smiling with a pure expression.
"Of course I like it. I like anything that Yanyan gives me."
Luo Yan, if I had known Grandma was so easy to please, I would have sent her away earlier. Why did I have to make Grandma so sad?
"Grandma isn't leaving."
Luo Yan held Shen Suyin's hands, which were being pecked by the chicks, with two small hands, and the earnestness in her eyes was touching.
Her daughter never really accepted her, but her granddaughter was genuinely trying to persuade her to stay, so Shen Suyin hesitated.
Sun Bailing quietly entered from outside the door and, upon hearing Luo Yan's words, said...
"Suyin, the children will miss you, so please don't leave."
Shen Suyin sniffed, but still shook her head with difficulty.
Knowing that Shen Suyin was a woman of her word, Sun Bailing slumped into a chair in dejection.
Luo Yan knew that the problem didn't lie with Sun Bailing or herself, so her mother had to step in.
Luo Yan ran over and opened the door, and sure enough, Hua Li was waiting outside.
"Mom, come here."
You made this mess, so you have to deal with it yourself. Your grandfather and I have done our best.
Hua Li walked in, hesitated for a moment, then walked to Shen Suyin's side and handed her the embroidered purse.
Shen Suyin didn't accept it, "I can't compare to Zengzi's mother, I can't afford it."
"I re-embroidered it; it's not the original one..."
Shen Suyin couldn't help but turn her head to glance at the purse in Hua Li's hand, and was immediately attracted by it.
The purse was embroidered based on her and her mother's portraits, even the colors were exactly the same.
Shen Suyin took the portrait and gently stroked it, her attitude no longer harsh.
Hua Li said, "There's one more piece I haven't finished embroidering. If you're not leaving, I'll continue embroidering it."
Shen Suyin put away her purse and said haughtily.
"Go ahead and embroider it. If it doesn't turn out well, I'm leaving."
Seeing that the mother and daughter were showing signs of reconciliation, Sun Bailing secretly breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward to put his arms around Shen Suyin and Hua Li.
"You are the two closest people to me in this world. Even if it's just for my sake, can you please not leave every time you throw a tantrum?"
The family of three hugged each other, and Luo Yan quietly went out and closed the door.
The chicks she had intended to give to Grandma Kong as a return gift were given to her maternal grandmother. Although she still had pheasants, it wouldn't be appropriate to give them to Grandma Kong again. She had to give another gift, but she really couldn't think of anything to give. Luo Yan was so troubled that she couldn't sleep well all night.
In the morning, Luo Yan went downstairs for breakfast with droopy eyelids, only to find that none of the four adults were there.
Xiao Xiu came over, took Luo Yan's hand, sat her down at the table, picked up a boiled egg, peeled it, and put it in Luo Yan's hand.
Luo Yan took a bite of the egg and looked at Xiao Xiu with her eyes.
During the short break, "Aunt Zhou died, Uncle Luo and Aunt Hua are with Father Chen, and Grandpa and Grandma had something to do and left a long time ago."
Zhou Bing is dead?
She had hugged her just the day before yesterday, how could she suddenly die?
"Illness?" Luo Yan asked.
"No, she was beaten to death by her husband, and they still haven't caught him."
She had seen Zhou Bing get beaten up in Beijing, so why couldn't she escape it even after coming to Jiangcheng?
"Where?" Zhou Bing's husband shouldn't be able to get into the compound. Even if he did, the people in the compound wouldn't let him beat Zhou Bing to death.
"On the way back from the supply and marketing cooperative."
Luo Yan knew that, whether in this era or in her original world, many men regarded their wives as their private property, and that a wife who divorced her husband was challenging his authority and deserved to die.
A woman should distance herself from a man the first time he throws a punch at her; otherwise, tolerating him will only lead to him escalating his behavior.
Zhou Bing's mistake was marrying the wrong person and refusing to cut her losses in time, which ultimately cost her her life.
Chen Yuanshan, who once loved Zhou Bing, must be very sad. Luo Yan sighed, ate a mouthful of porridge, and then a bite of the stir-fried monkey head mushroom that Xiao Xiu had given her.
Cherish life, stay away from all people and things that make you unhappy, and Luo Yan eats diligently.
After dinner, Luo Shicheng and Hua Li had not yet returned, so Aunt Shi took Luo Yan and Xiao Xiu to kindergarten.
As they walked out of the compound, the adult and the two children strolled along the street. When they were almost at the kindergarten, they passed the entrance of an alley. Suddenly, someone rushed out of the alley, picked up Luo Yan, and ran away.
Aunt Shi screamed in panic, chased after them for a few steps, then collapsed due to her weak legs.
Xiao Xiu took off chasing after him, jumped up and pounced on the man's back, wrapping her arms around his neck.
The man raised his hand and grabbed Xiao Xiu's arm, trying to pull her off. Luo Yan, who was in his arms, slapped her two small hands on the man's ears, causing a buzzing sound in his brain.
Xiao Xiu punched the man in the back of the head, and the man fell to the ground. Luo Yan and Xiao Xiu rolled over and landed steadily on the ground with nimble movements.
Xiao Xiu ran to find the guard on duty at the gate of the compound. Luo Yan stood beside the man and recognized him as Zhou Bing's husband...
Luo Yan swung her small fists and beat the cowardly man who hit women.
You think you can hit women? Well, today I'll let you taste what it's like to get beaten up.
The man who had fainted was woken up by Luo Yan's beating. He clearly heard the cracking sound of his arm being broken and felt his ribs breaking. He cried out in pain.
When the guard ran over with Xiao Xiu, he saw the adorable little baby's tiny fists flying up and down, beating the man until he was covered in blood.
Adults passing by covered their children's eyes and surrounded them, trying to persuade them to stop.
"Girl, stop hitting me, or your hand will hurt."
The guard watched in shock as Luo Yan kicked the man's thigh, instantly deforming it. He rushed forward to pull Luo Yan away.
"What kind of ability is it to bully a woman? If you're so capable, get up and beat her up!" Luo Yan spat on the man's face.
Aunt Shi staggered over, took Luo Yan's chubby little hand and examined it carefully to make sure she wasn't injured before she felt relieved.
With the guard's permission, Aunt Shi first took Luo Yan and Xiao Xiu to kindergarten, and then returned to cooperate with the police to give a statement.
Upon receiving the news, Song Lang rushed over. After learning what had happened, he found out that Luo Yan and Xiao Xiu had worked together to capture Xie Lianyun, who had killed Zhou Bing. He stroked his chin, thinking that if he couldn't recruit Luo Yan, he would recruit Xiao Xiu. In any case, he couldn't let go of a good seedling.
During a short break at the kindergarten, where everyone was figuring out how to earn money through learning, "Achoo! Achoo!"
Luo Yan took out a handkerchief and handed it to Xiao Xiu, but Xiao Xiu waved her hand to indicate that she didn't need it.
Xu Yuan walked over and pulled Xiao Xiu, who stood up and walked with Xu Yuan to the back of the classroom.
Xu Yuan: "My family really likes sweet potato stems. My aunt asked me to ask if you could get some more?"
Xiao Xiu hesitated, then said, "I'm not doing it anymore. I'll tell you whose sweet potato stem it is, and you can go and exchange it yourselves."
Xu Yuan said unhappily, "That's too embarrassing. No, you have to go."
Yan Yan wouldn't allow it, and he had to listen to her. Xiao Xiu refused, "I'm not going."
Xu Yuan put her hands on her hips and said, "If you don't go, I'll report you and have the police arrest you."
Luo Yan, who had come over and overheard this, pulled aside Xiao Xiu, ripped off Xu Yuan's Casio children's digital watch from her wrist, threw it on the ground, and stomped on it.
