"Daughter-in-law!" Huo An shouted affectionately, and Kou Xi was stunned: "Huh?"

"I'm not hurt, really!"

"You promise?" someone burst into tears.

"I promise!" Huo An said in a low voice, "I've been dealing with Big Brother Gao's aftermath recently. ”

"Aunt Gao is very sad, Niu Niu is so pitiful....." Kou Xi wiped his tears and sniffed: "Let's help them!"

"Daughter-in-law..... Huo An called Kou Xi for the third time, and Kou Xi finally noticed that something was wrong: "What's wrong?

"Aunt Gao, it's gone!" Kou Xi exclaimed, "What about Niu Niu? Send it to his mother? Isn't his mother remarried? Can you find his mother?"

At first, her mother took Niu Niu over, but asked to take over Brother Gao's pension. And because Niu Niu is underage, there is also a fixed pension every year. Huo An sighed heavily and spit out a few words: "For the sake of so much money, they gladly accepted it." But in the past two days, I secretly went to see Niu Niu......" Huo An sighed: "He is doing very badly, his stepfather beat him, and his mother doesn't even let him eat at the table." ”

"Oh my God!" Kou Xi frowned: "Take the money and don't do anything, are you embarrassed?"

"Brother Gao sacrificed to protect me, and I can't ignore this matter. I have submitted evidence today that I cannot afford to see the children of martyrs being subjected to such mistreatment. ”

Kou Xi was worried about another thing: "But if you deprive your mother of custody, what will Niu Niu do?

"So I want to talk to you about whether we can adopt him. Huo An hesitated for a moment and slowly said his thoughts.

"You submitted your application, right?" Kou Xi gasped: "You don't know how to tell me, so you don't want to call me back even though you know how anxious I am." ”

"I'm sorry, I can't ........" he couldn't watch Niu Niu live like this, so he felt guilty.

"You know we're going to be in a lot of trouble if we adopt him. "Kou Xi was scared, it was too difficult to raise a child. She couldn't be sure that she would be a good mother.

"With the adoption certificate, we can still have our own children. Huo An thought about it very thoroughly: "And Niu Niu's biological mother was deprived of custody rights, and it was not because we tried to encroach on Gao Ge's pension that we chose to adopt him." ”

"Have you ever thought that once you bring him back, there will be a lot of gossip here. "Especially when my mother's family moves in with me, can I not care about them?

"I didn't think about sending Niu Niu back, I wanted to take it with me. Let him grow up in the barracks!" Huo An's tone was very anxious, with eagerness mixed with uneasiness: "It was Brother Gao who pushed me at a critical time and was shot." Daughter-in-law, he died in front of me. The tall lady sent the white-haired man to the black-haired man, and the sudden death of a heart attack was also because of me. Niu Niu became an orphan, also because of me. ”

Kou Xi heard that Huo An was trying his best to endure it, but there was still crying.

"How are you going to raise him? The family building has not yet been built, can a child eat and live with you? Or is it in which sister-in-law's house? It is impossible for such a young person to live in a full-time boarding school. Kou Xi pursed his lips and thought about it, and made a big decision: "You send him back!"

Huo An was silent there for a long time, as if he was weighing the matter. After a while, he sighed: "I adopted him, and I didn't want to make him your responsibility." My daughter-in-law, it is my responsibility to take care of him and raise him. ”

"But you can't take care of him and raise him, and that's not your responsibility. You've got your call!" Kou Xi had been calling, and Kou Dewang had already come to the house to walk around a few times.

"Is our dad at home?" Huo An suddenly asked, Kou Xi said to Kou Dewang, who was probing his brain, "Your uncle is looking for you!"

Kou Dewang was stunned: "Looking for me?"

Kou Xi handed the microphone to Kou Dewang with his backhand: "Yes, he has something to discuss with you." ”

Kou Dewang took the phone suspiciously, and said into the microphone, "Hello?"

Hao Hongmei watched it from the sidelines, although she couldn't guess what was going on, but she knew that something terrible must have happened. At first, Kou Xi was surprised and happy, crying and crying, accompanied by coquettishness, and then his face became more and more solemn.

"Who died?" Hao Hongmei couldn't help but ask, Kou Xi looked at her and said lightly: "A comrade-in-arms who has the best relationship with him, I lived in his house last time I went to visit relatives. His daughter-in-law ran away, leaving behind a small boy to be cared for by his mother, who was almost seventy years old. ”

"My mother, how can this make the old man live!" Hao Hongmei said sympathetically: "The old man is the most pitiful.....

Kou Xi stared at Kou Dewang, only to see that his expression was serious and he didn't speak, all the time "Uh-huh, uh-huh!", "Yes, that's, yes, yes, yes." "Okay, okay, I advise her. "Okay, you can send it back." A child is very pitiful, his father is kind to our family, and he can't treat him badly. There is no shortage of chopsticks at home!"

Hearing this, Kou Xi already understood that Huo An persuaded Kou Dewang, and Kou Dewang especially appreciated Huo An's move.

Kou Xi suddenly became a little confused, and asked Hao Hongmei in a low voice: "Isn't it that the old man looks at his uncle, how can he look at it?"

"That's also a score!" Hao Hongmei said with a smile: "Some fathers-in-law don't think about how rare and uncommon uncles are." ”

At dinner in the evening, Kou Dewang told everyone about Huo An's adoption of a comrade-in-arms' child.

Kou Deyou was the first to object: "Ah? Just take it home?

"The state gave a pension, which was supposed to give the child to his mother. But his mother just didn't want to live the life of a military wife back then, so she got married after throwing him away. The stepfather saw that the pension was quite high, so he agreed to take the child over. Huo An was worried that they were not sincere in taking care of the children, so he said hello to the local government. The pension was approved, but it has not been paid up. I didn't expect them to be very good to the children in front of the leaders who visited, and they changed their faces when they left. A child as young as Niu Niu is either beaten or scolded. And his mother still has a big belly and no energy to take care of him, and on this cold day, such a young child has to go out to collect leaves and go home to make a fire. If you don't have enough to count, you won't be allowed to eat. ”

These are all pieces of evidence collected by Huo An's comrades-in-arms, and when they were sent to Huo An, Huo An almost pulled out his gun and went out to kill.

Later, Huo An reported to the organization, and after some investigation and visits, the organization came forward to take Niu Niu back.

"Oh my mother, it's so unconscionable. Tang Jinzhi couldn't help but say: "How can my own mother do such a thing? No one can treat a child like this! ”

"The child's mother was still dissatisfied with the stepfather, and she had to petition and sue her. Later, they showed them the evidence, saying that they were going to accuse them of abusing the martyrs' orphans, and they let them go. Kou Dewang sighed: "Take it back, take it back, we don't miss that pair of chopsticks." ”
