Luo Yan hadn't thought about it and said, "I don't know, but there's always a way."
The old woman gently nodded her snow-white head.
"Alright, if you can do that, when you come back, you can inherit all my estate."
Luo Yan found the old woman ridiculous and was about to make a sarcastic remark when the scene suddenly changed. She was now standing beside Hua Li, who had a persistent high fever, her face covered in tears…
"Yanyan, wake up."
Luo Yan opened her eyes and saw Hua Li holding her with a concerned expression, with Luo Shicheng and Xiao Xiu looking anxious beside her.
"Did you have a nightmare?" Hua Li asked softly, wiping Luo Yan's sweat with a handkerchief.
Luo Yan hummed in agreement, then closed her eyes wearily and fell asleep again.
However, this time I didn't dream, and I woke up the next morning.
Luo Yan was gently awakened by Hua Li. Because she remembered everything in her dream, Luo Yan felt an indescribable emotion welling up in her heart when she saw Hua Li.
"Baby, why are you looking at Mommy like that?"
Hua Li felt that Luo Yan's gaze towards her was strange, somewhat unfamiliar, and a little heartbreaking.
Luo Yan shook her head, ignoring those troubling emotions, got out of bed, slipped on her slippers, and went to wash up.
We got up too late today, and the family hurriedly finished eating. Hua Li gave up riding her bicycle and went to work with Luo Yan and Xiao Xiu in Sun Bailing's car.
To prevent Hua Li from being late, Chen Yuanshan took Hua Li to the supply and marketing cooperative first, and then took Luo Yan and Xiao Xiu to kindergarten.
When Luo Yan and Xiao Xiu entered the classroom, all the children were sitting in their chairs, some reading, some talking. Lin Qingping was not there; only the childcare worker was watching.
After sitting down, Luo Yan took out paper and pen from her handbag and started drawing, while Xiao Xiu continued to study the dictionary.
After Luo Yan finished drawing, she handed the drawing to Xiao Xiu. Xiao Xiu took it and looked at it. The drawing depicted him, Luo Yan, Yang Tie, and Leng Jian pushing two children in wheelchairs and playing together.
Luo Yan promised Zhuang Nanxing that she would go to play with Deng Cheng, so she would also bring Kong Feng, Yang Tie, and Leng Jian along. That way, if Xu Yuncong dared to hit Yang Tie and Leng Jian again, even Xu Baojuan wouldn't be able to protect him.
After looking at the painting, Xiao Xiu understood that Luo Yan wanted to protect Yang Tie and Leng Jian, so that Xu Yuncong would not dare to touch them again.
Xiao Xiu said okay and returned the painting to Luo Yan. Luo Yan reached out to take the painting, but out of the corner of her eye she noticed the caregiver looking behind her. She turned around abruptly and saw Xu Yuan standing on a chair, looking at her with binoculars.
She said that when she showed Xiaoxiu the bankbook yesterday, no one came over to look, so how did Xu Yuan see it? It turns out she used a tool.
When Xu Yuan met Luo Yanqing's clear gaze through the binoculars, she was so startled that her hand trembled and the binoculars fell to the ground.
Luo Yan got up and walked over, stepping on the binoculars and slowly crushing them with her toes.
As Xu Yuan listened to the sound of the lenses and frames shattering, it felt as if her heart was being crushed. Her face turned deathly pale as she stared at Luo Yan's little red leather shoes, and tears instantly welled up in her eyes.
"I'm going to tell my dad, and he'll beat you to death!"
Xu Yuan cried out in distress; it was a telescope her father had given her, and Luo Yan deserved to die for breaking it.
Luo Yan was not afraid of threats at all. She scoffed and walked back to her seat.
Xiao Xiu went to the sanitation corner, picked up a broom and dustpan and swept all the trash off the ground into the trash can.
The caregiver witnessed the whole thing without saying a word. After Lin Qingping arrived, she told Lin Qingping what had happened before Xu Yuan could come to complain.
Lin Qingping knew, of course, where the rumor that Xiao Xiu was a capitalist's son came from. When school was over, she told the Xu family's nanny.
A telescope is no cheap item, and it's something you can't buy even if you have the money. The nanny didn't dare to neglect it, and she told the Xu family as soon as she got home.
Xu Baojuan asked Xu Yuan, "Why did your telescope fall to the ground?"
Xu Yuan was stunned when her grandfather asked her this question, while the nanny answered Xu Baojuan's question instead.
"Director Lin said that Xu Yuan was spying with binoculars, and when Luo Yan discovered her, she was so frightened that she dropped it on the ground, which is why Luo Yan stepped on it."
Xu Yuan's spying was wrong, but Luo Yan's deliberate stepping on the binoculars to teach Xu Yuan a lesson was even more wrong.
Xu Baojuan's face was ashen. "Did you do something to offend them before?"
Xu Yuan stole a glance at Xu Yuncong, who glared at her and warned her not to mention him.
Xu Baojuan noticed his great-grandson and great-granddaughter's actions and his heart sank. He said, "Granddaughter-in-law."
"Take the gifts and take the two siblings to the Sun family..."
Her own child was being bullied, yet the old man told her to send gifts to the bullies? Su Baifeng was indignant, but she dared not disobey the old man.
Xu Yuan burst into tears on the spot, but while she dared to act spoiled and unreasonable with her grandparents and parents, she dared not do so with her great-grandfather. Su Baifeng led her to the Sun family, and she breathed a sigh of relief when she didn't see Luo Yan inside.
Luo Yan and Xiao Xiu went out to play, Sun Bailing and Luo Shicheng are still having a banquet at the Kong family's house and haven't returned yet, Hua Li's whereabouts are unknown, and only Shen Suyin is at home.
Shen Suyin was unaware of what had happened at the kindergarten and did not know Su Baifeng. She only found out who Su Baifeng was after hearing Su Baifeng's self-introduction.
"We appreciate your kind gesture, but please take the gifts back."
As she spoke, Shen Suyin took out two pretty boxes with foreign writing on them from under the coffee table, opened them, and placed them in front of Xu Yuan.
Su Baifeng glanced at it; the box contained chocolates and various cookies and candies, and the packaging was exquisite, something she had never seen before.
Just then, Aunt Shi came in carrying a fruit platter. One platter contained cut fruit, and the other contained nuts, which were delicacies that the Xu family usually couldn't bear to eat.
She had previously thought that the two cans of malted milk powder, two cans of food, a bunch of bananas, and a bag of milk candy she had were valuable enough, but now it seems like a joke.
Only now did Su Baifeng understand the old man's purpose in asking her to bring the child. The old man couldn't protect them forever, and there were some people they couldn't afford to offend, even if they didn't intend to get close to them.
Su Baifeng made small talk with Shen Suyin for a while, but still left the things behind.
Shen Suyin did not force anyone to take it away, but instead had Aunt Shi give Su Baifeng a return gift.
Su Baifeng knew without even looking that the bamboo basket was full of good things, and left after thanking him repeatedly.
As Su Baifeng left the Sun family's house, she saw Yang Tie and Leng Jian each pushing a wheelchair. Sitting in the wheelchairs were Kong Feng, the nephew of Political Commissar Kong, and Deng Cheng, the child of Commander Zhuang's nanny.
Deng Cheng and Kong Feng, both in wheelchairs, would occasionally glance back at Luo Yan and Xiao Xiu walking behind them; they clearly had a very good relationship.
Everyone knows that although these two children come from humble backgrounds, not just anyone can play with them...
Su Baifeng thanked the old man for his decision again and made up her mind to go home and give her son and daughter a good lesson, so that they could no longer take advantage of the old man's remaining power and do whatever they wanted.
When Luo Yan saw Su Baifeng leading Xu Yuncong and his sister out of the house, she quietly called to Xiao Xiu.
"Brother, have some to eat."
Xiao Xiu agreed and ran home, returning shortly after with a bag in his arms.
Running back to Luo Yan's side, Xiao Xiu opened the bag, and Luo Yan called Yang Tie and Leng Jian over to push the wheelchair. Each of the four of them received a banana and four pieces of candy.
As for the rest, Luo Yan and Xiao Xiu would give them to any child they saw, including Xu Yuncong's follower who shamelessly came to collect them.
