Lu Zihang tilted his head and asked, "Really?"
"Really, second brother!" The little girl smiled and joked, "They all know that you are my eldest and second brothers, who dares to bully me!"
“That’s right!”
Lu Zihang felt relieved after hearing this, picked up his chopsticks and started eating confidently.
However, Lu Zizhou picked up the chopsticks absent-mindedly, his eyes always on the little girl.
Lin Tingwan knew that the little girl had something on her mind, but since she didn’t want to talk about it, she didn’t ask any more questions. She would wait until the little girl wanted to talk about it and she would tell her naturally.
really.
After a few people took a nap and rested well, they were ready to go to school.
The little girl slowly walked to Lin Tingwan's side.
She clenched her hands and hesitated for a long time before she spoke: "Aunt, if someone is injured, what medicine can be used to heal?"
"Who's hurt?"
Lin Tingwan raised her eyebrows and looked the little girl up and down, but didn't see any scars on her body.
Seeing her eyes, the little girl waved her hands and said, "Aunt, it's not me who is injured, but Xiaohua, she has many injuries on her body. I want to bring some medicine for Xiaohua, she must be in pain."
Normally, if she got a red spot on her hand, it would be very painful. Xiaohua had wounds on both of her arms, so it must have been very painful.
Xiaohua was the best to her at school, and she didn’t want Xiaohua to be in so much pain.
"Xiaohua?"
Lin Tingwan frowned and asked softly, "Is it serious?"
"Um."
The little girl nodded repeatedly, then pointed at her arm and said, "This...this...this..." She pointed at several places, her face wrinkled into a bun and said depressedly, "Aunt, Xiaohua said she bumped into it herself."
But these words can only fool the little girl, there is no way they can fool Lin Tingwan.
She immediately said, "Then Auntie will go see Xiaohua in person this afternoon and bring her some medicine."
"Really?"
The little girl immediately looked at Lin Tingwan excitedly.
Seeing her nod, he was very happy. He took Lin Tingwan's hand and walked towards the school.
After arriving at school.
Before the second Chinese class ended, she said, "Xiaohua, come with me to the office."
The words fell.
Only then did they let the students leave get out of class.
Xiaohua followed Lin Tingwan all the way to the office.
Seeing her sit down, Xiaohua clenched her hands nervously and asked in a low voice: "Teacher, is my test score not good?"
Lin Tingwan smiled slightly and explained softly, "The papers for yesterday's exam haven't been graded yet. It's not about this."
The words fell.
Lin Tingwan's eyes also fell on Xiaohua's arm.
Sure enough, Xiaohua's slightly short sleeves did not completely cover the scars on her body.
She immediately reached out and grabbed Xiaohua, then rolled up her sleeves.
Looking at the shocking scars on it, Lin Tingwan's eyes trembled slightly and her lips pursed. Obviously, she did not expect Xiaohua to be so seriously injured.
Then she took out the ointment for bruises and sprains from her bag and gently applied it on Xiaohua's body.
"Xiaohua, tell the teacher who did this."
Xiaohua's eyes became moist as she listened to her gentle voice and heard Teacher Lin gently wiping the wounds on her body.
With a choked voice, he said, "Teacher, it was my dad who beat me!"
"Why did your father hit you?"
Lin Tingwan's eyes flashed. Xiaohua was very obedient at school. For some reason, her father beat her like this.
Xiaohua couldn't help but shed tears, and quickly reached out to touch the tears from the corners of her eyes, looking very aggrieved.
He sniffed and said in a trembling voice: "He drank and not only beat me, but also beat my mother."
As if she had thought of something, Xiaohua's face suddenly became very ugly, and her eyes were full of panic.
I was so scared that I couldn't help shaking.
After Lin Tingwan applied the medicine to Xiaohua, she quickly spoke to comfort her, "Xiaohua, don't be afraid. Does your father often beat you and your mother?"
She saw that Xiaohua had not only new wounds on her body, but also many old wounds.
Moreover, Xiaohua is the same age as Xinxin, but she looks even thinner than Xinxin before.
Before, she just thought that Xiaohua's family might not be good and the food she ate was not nutritious, but now it seems that there may be another hidden story.
"Whenever my father drinks, he will beat people."
Xiaohua wiped her tears and looked at the ointment in Teacher Lin's hand. After hesitating for a long time, she whispered, "Teacher, can you lend me the ointment? I promise to return it to you later!"
"My mother was seriously injured this time. I want to use it for her!"
Lin Tingwan curled her lips into a smile and handed the ointment to Xiaohua.
"sure."
Xiaohua looked down at the ointment on her hand and thanked her happily, "Thank you, teacher."
Seeing her so happy, Lin Tingwan thought for a moment before speaking: "Xiaohua, let the teacher take you home tonight, and visit your mother by the way, okay?"
"But...can I?"
Xiaohua suddenly raised her eyes and looked at Lin Tingwan, with a glimmer of anticipation and joy in her eyes.
"sure."
"Then...I'll take the teacher home that night."
"Um."
As soon as Lin Tingwan finished speaking, she heard the bell ringing for class.
Then he patted Xiaohua's head and said softly, "Go to class first."
that's all.
Xiaohua quickly ran back to the classroom.
