I thought about it all the way, and when I returned to Chengdu, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.

The day was spent entirely in the car.

As soon as I returned to Chengdu, I went to the hospital and visited Cheng Lu and Cheng Xiaohu.

Cheng Lu hasn't woken up yet, Cheng Xiaohu can eat some things, but the whole person is still a little confused.

I persuaded him in the hospital for a while, and when I was about to leave the hospital, I went to the ward where Yang Wei was, and I wanted to ask him why the money hadn't been transferred yet?

But the nurse said he had been discharged, and he was discharged yesterday.

Although I don't have his contact information, yesterday he wrote me a letter of liability, which has legal effect, and he can't run away.

When I got home from the hospital, it was already past 10 p.m.

Usually at this time, Xiaoman is almost asleep, but as soon as I stopped the car, I heard Xiaoman's crying from the house.

Then came An Lan's scolding: "If you cry again, if you cry again, I'll beat you again!" ”

I don't know what Xiao Man did to anger An Lan again, but when I opened the door and walked in, I saw Xiao Man sitting on the floor in the middle of the living room, still splashing.

An Lan sat on the sofa, holding a small stick in his hand and eager to beat Xiaoman.

I hurriedly stepped forward, came to Xiaoman's side, and asked An Lan suspiciously, "What's wrong?" What do you hit her for? ”

"This kid is so angry!"

An Lan rarely gets so angry, especially to Xiaoman, although she has been singing with a white face, she is not as angry as she is now.

I glanced at Xiao Man again and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Didn't I return the puppy that Li Yuchen gave her to Li Yuchen? This kid refuses to live or die, and keeps messing with me, and he hasn't eaten dinner yet. ”

I frowned, took a breath, and then squatted down next to Xiaoman, and said to her in a lighter tone: "Xiaoman, be obedient, there are a lot of bacteria on the dog, and you are too young, when you go to kindergarten in the future, Dad will buy you another one, okay?" ”

"Don't, I don't...... I want Xue'er, I want Xue'er......" Xue'er is the puppy that Li Yuchen gave her.

"You're still crying, aren't you? I don't think you've been beaten enough by me! ”

An Lan seemed to be really angry, and waved the stick in his hand and pumped it towards Xiaoman's ass.

I subconsciously reached out to protect it, and the stick was whipped on my arm.

Fortunately, this stick is not big, and An Lan should be a branch that was randomly pulled off from your green plants in the courtyard outside.

But it still hurts, I'm still wearing short sleeves, which also scared An Lan.

She hurriedly threw away the branch and asked me urgently, "Why did you reach for it, how is it?" Is there something wrong? ”

I took a look, and there was already a red bar in the place where it was drawn.

I shook my head and said, "It's okay, don't do it!" There's something to say. ”

"I can't tell her clearly, this child is stubborn, this is not my father, where did I dare to be like this in the face of adults when I was young!"

I still patiently said: "When we were young, we were different from now, you can talk to your children, don't do it." ”

Xiao Man was really frightened, she hid directly behind me and buried her little head tightly under my chest.

"Chen Xiaoman, you come out for me, don't hide!" An Lan grabbed the branch again and yelled at Xiao Man.

Xiaoman continued to stick to me, the whole person entangled me to death, she knew that now only I could save her.

I picked her up and said to her, "Don't cry, Daddy will take you to the bath, and then tell you the story of Snow White." ”

Although Xiaoman is only two years old, she actually understands a lot of truths, although she usually doesn't make love to me, but at this time she knows that I can protect her.

So she hurriedly nodded and agreed, and I said to An Lan again; "Don't be angry, I'll go bathe Xiaoman."

……

In the bathroom, I took a shower for Xiaoman.

Xiaoman's aggrieved little eyes looked at me pitifully, and said to me in a low voice, "Can you help me bring Xue'er back?" ”

"You?" I smiled wryly and said, "Can't you even call me Daddy?" ”

She lowered her head and said to her again, "Okay, you call me Daddy, and I'll find a way to help you bring Cher back." ”

I thought she'd call me, but I was naïve.

Even though she liked the puppy so much, she didn't call me.

I had no choice but to laugh miserably and continue to help her take a bath, while asking, "Why does it have to be Cher?" Can't I buy you a new one? ”

"I just want Xue'er, you can help me bring it back, please."

She then pursed her mouth as if she was about to cry.

I had to scare her and say, "Don't cry! Cry and I'll let your mom in. ”

She immediately held back, it seemed that she was still afraid of An Lan.

Don't look at An Lan's usual gentle appearance, but in front of Xiaoman, she is a strict mother.

That's fine, in fact, I don't agree with being too nice to children, which will make children form a kind of dependence.

And of course I can't treat her like An Lan, because she herself is not intimate with me, and if this is the case again, then she will ignore me.

After helping her take a bath, I coaxed her to eat something before carrying her to bed and telling stories until she fell asleep.

An Lan also returned to the bedroom after washing up at this time, and she glanced at Xiaoman.

After making sure she was asleep, I grabbed my arm, looked at the scar on my arm, which was already slightly red and swollen, frowned and said, "It must be painful, right?" ”

"It's much better now."

"You too, why do you reach out here, I can't hold my hand."

"Don't hit her, the child is still so young, just give her verbal education."

An Lan turned his head to look at the sleeping Xiaoman, sighed and said: "I was just dizzy by her, since I came back from work, I have been messing with me, feeding her, and smashing the bowl, Sister Cai went to pick up the broken bowl and scratched her fingers...... Are you angry? ”

"I'm a little angry to hear you say that."

"It's not a little angry, it's very angry!" An Lan still said angrily, "How dare I do this when I was young!" It's no wonder my dad doesn't discount my legs! ”

"Your dad is so fierce?"

An Lan sighed and said: "It's not fierce, he is just more strict with me, because I was not obedient when I was young, I told you, I was even more naughty than Xiaoman when I was young." ”

"It seems that Xiaoman is up to you."

An Lan smiled bitterly again: "My personality is very similar to me, so I have to correct it since I was a child!" ”

"But I still don't recommend hitting children."

"I didn't actually want to hit her, just to scare her, and that moment was actually to scare her...... Who knew that you suddenly reached out. ”

"Is that my fault?" I said with a smile.

An Lan was a little speechless and said: "I didn't say it's your fault, you were right to protect her, but you also scored." ”

"Yes, yes, you're right, anyway, don't beat her in the future, don't scare her, you see she's still so young, what do you know!"

An Lan suddenly fell silent, then walked in front of Xiao Man, lay on the side of the bed and looked at Xiao Man up close.

"Xiaoman, mom doesn't want to beat you, mom is just angry with you, but I promise to tell you well next time, don't blame mom, mom loves you very much."

After she finished speaking, she kissed Xiaoman on the forehead.

After standing up, An Lan suddenly asked me again, "By the way, where have you been today?" Why did you come back so late? ”
