Chapter 246

Little Gold called out with a tender voice, its big tail sweeping Lin Zhao's hand.

As usual, Yubao and Hengbao couldn't help but want to rub the little monkey.

Today they weren't in the mood.

Hengbao's cheeks puffed up, "Mother, why is Lamei brother's grandpa so bad? He even pushed him! He caused Lamei brother to be injured and didn't care, he's too bad!"

Yubao was a child who lived in love, and he also couldn't understand Old Man Zhao's actions. His grandpa and grandma were very good to them, giving them everything good, and if anyone bullied them, grandpa and grandma would protect them.

"Lamei brother's grandpa is not good at all," Yubao said gloomily.

Lin Zhao rubbed the little brothers' heads.

Tie Chui spoke honestly: "My grandpa is good, Lamei brother's grandpa is not good to him, he shouldn't want that grandpa anymore, I can share half of my grandpa with him."

"I can also share half of my grandpa with Lamei brother," Hengbao became excited and followed up.

Yubao showed hesitation, "This, we need to ask for Grandpa's opinion, we can't act on our own."

He could even use idioms, and used them well; if it weren't the wrong time, Lin Zhao would have praised her son again.

Hengbao was full of confidence, "Grandpa and Grandma like me the most, if I beg them, Grandpa and Grandma will definitely agree."

"That's not it," Yubao's expression was serious, "Grandpa and Grandma like Mother the most. Mother is Grandpa and Grandma's daughter, because we were born by Mother, they like us. If we weren't Mother's children, they wouldn't like us either."

After speaking, he made a conclusion, "Hengbao, you need to distinguish between primary and secondary."

Hearing this, Lin Zhao knew he had learned this from Gu Fu.

Too cute, my eldest cub.

Hengbao was a bit hit, but instantly became spirited again, "Brother's assumption doesn't hold, we were born by Mother, Grandpa and Grandma will like us forever, right Mother?" He looked up, looking at Lin Zhao expectantly.

Lin Zhao rubbed the second cub's cheeks, her voice light and slow, "Right."

"Mother, why doesn't Lamei brother's grandpa like him?" Yubao couldn't understand.

"What's strange about that, people with sick brains are just like that. Don't think too much, just stay away from that kind of person," Lin Zhao said.

The children were still small, their little hearts full of fairy tales, and she didn't want to destroy their innocence because of a rotten person like Old Man Zhao.

"Does Lamei brother's grandpa have a big brain disease?" Hengbao asked, "Why doesn't he go to the hospital to see a doctor, is it because he has no money?"

Yubao: "That bad grandpa has money, Bangbang brother said so, his grandpa always goes to the homes of his married daughters to beg for things, every time he snatches things, and wants money, whoever doesn't give... he will throw a tantrum."

He added with a wrinkled smiling face: "It's the kind of tantrum where he lies on the ground and rolls around."

Hengbao opened his mouth wide, the expression on his face so complex it couldn't be described in words.

"There's even this way to get rich?" He had a stunned expression as if a new world had been opened to him.

Lin Zhao saw his eyes shining and reminded him, "Don't think about getting something for nothing, there's no free lunch in the world."

Hengbao looked at her.

Suddenly he covered his mouth and laughed, "Mother got something for nothing, though."

Lin Zhao: "?"

"Gu Zhihang, if you can't explain yourself, I'm going to hit a child, let you have a complete childhood."

Hengbao subconsciously covered his butt.

He said: "I saw Grandpa give you money, isn't that getting something for nothing?"

Lin Zhao: "..."

"How can it be the same?" Lin Zhao glared at him, "Your grandpa giving me money is a father loving his daughter, he has money and is willing to give it to me, how is this getting something for nothing?"

"I'm good at being reborn, having a pair of super good parents, there's nothing to be done about that," she said modestly.

Others couldn't envy it even if they wanted to.

Yubao raised his smiling face, "We also have super good parents."

Hengbao put his hands on his hips, "I have super good Father and Mother, Grandpa and Grandma, Grandpa and Grandma, Uncle and Aunt..." He counted them off on his fingers.

Tie Chui followed up: "I have a super good Third Aunt."

The moment Lamei regained consciousness, he heard many "super good" sounds in his ears.

He opened his eyes in a daze, seeing an unfamiliar ceiling.

"Lamei brother!" Tie Dan led the twins into the room, saw Lamei open his eyes, and let out an exclamation.

Lin Zhao looked over, "Lamei, how do you feel? Does your head hurt?!"

"It doesn't hurt." Lamei shook his head.

Lin Zhao reached out to fix his head, "Your head is broken, don't shake it, be careful of getting dizzy."

So Lamei didn't move at all.

Then he remembered his difficult grandpa coming to rob the house, and an urgent look appeared on his face, "Third Aunt, is Mother okay? My grandpa is so fierce, he came again!"

"Your mother is fine, Bangbang is also fine, everyone is fine," Lin Zhao comforted him, "Your eldest uncle threw your grandpa out, he didn't take advantage of anything, and didn't hurt anyone else."

Lamei let out a long sigh of relief.

Feeling something wrapped around his head, he wanted to touch it, but thinking of what Third Aunt said, he kept his body straight.

"Lamei brother, your grandpa is really bad, don't call him grandpa in the future, I'll share half of my grandpa with you," Tie Chui said.

Lamei lowered his eyes and sighed.

"He bullies my mother, I don't want to call him grandpa, but... if I don't call him, he will hit people, and his hitting is so painful!"

He didn't call that bad person before, and Old Man Zhao slapped him, making his ears buzz, and he couldn't hear clearly for several days.

Being hit today, Lamei didn't feel surprised; Old Man Zhao had a violent temper and hit anyone when he was unhappy.

"When did he hit you, didn't your parents know?" Lin Zhao's expression was unhappy.

She thought Old Man Zhao was just selfish, treating his daughters as blood bags, but didn't expect him to even hit the children.

"... When I was five," Lamei said.

He didn't like holidays because he had to go see Grandpa during holidays.

"He wouldn't let me tell Father and Mother. He said if I dared to say anything, he would beat Mother. I didn't want Mother to be beaten..."

Outside the door, Zhao Liuniang was in tears.

She didn't know.

Zhao Liuniang rushed into the room, saying with heartache and resentment: "Why didn't you tell your father and me? If I had known earlier, how could I have taken you back again."

Lamei was anxious to get up, but was pressed down by his mother; Zhao Liuniang's voice was slightly hoarse, "Don't move, you have an injury on your head, be careful of bleeding again."

The pale-faced youth lay down.

"If I don't go, my brother will have to go, my brother has a bad temper, he will be hit even harder," Lamei smiled, "As long as I don't go against him, and keep nodding and saying yes, my grandpa won't hit people."

He summarized a set of survival rules, which were unexpectedly the same as Zhao Liuniang's.

Hearing this sentence, Zhao Liuniang's heart was whipped by something.

She had always thought she was taking good care of her children; it turned out that all their storms were brought by her.

Zhao Liuniang was very broken.

Lin Zhao looked at Lamei, her expression solemn, "Parents are your backing, you should tell them everything you encounter. If your parents can't handle it, there are others in the family, isn't it silly to keep it bottled up inside?"

Lamei reached out, wanting to scratch his head, his fingers touched the gauze, and he hurriedly retracted them, resting them on the fluffy blanket.

He said: "It's nothing, I don't see my grandpa often, just endure it and it will pass."

Old Man Zhao loved to hit people and was unreasonable; he didn't want to add trouble to the family.

Bangbang stood at the door, his face cold, his eyes fierce.

Thinking of something, he opened his mouth, "That time you came back from the Zhao house, you said your ears hurt, did he hit your ears?"

Lamei looked at his brother's serious face and muttered: "... Mm."

He said it very softly, not even daring to look at Bangbang.

"Bang!"

Bangbang was so angry he smashed his fist against the door frame.

"You idiot, you're killing me with anger!"

Lamei stiffened his arms and retorted weakly, "I, how am I an idiot?"

"You've been a mute for so long, aren't you an idiot?" Bangbang was even angrier.

He approached the bed, looking down at Lamei, "Am I your brother, why didn't you tell me when you were hit?"

If Lamei had told him, he would definitely have vented his anger, regardless of whether that person was his grandpa or not.

Zhao Liuniang also said: "Your brother is right, you should have told us. Even if you didn't tell your father and me, you should have told your brother."

No! You can't tell brother.

Brother would definitely go find Grandpa to reason, Grandpa is unreasonable and would hit his brother.

Lamei thought in his heart.

He lowered his head and didn't speak.

Truly a stubborn one.

Lin Zhao changed the subject, "Lamei, are you hungry? I stewed chicken soup, you drink some too, drink it and then go to the hospital with your parents."

Lamei: "Why go to the hospital? My head doesn't hurt, no need to go to the hospital, going to the hospital costs money, Mother will definitely feel the heartache for a month."

Zhao Liuniang said unhappily: "I haven't said anything yet, you're already babbling, do you believe I'll hit you?"

She opened her palm.

Lamei closed his mouth.

Lin Zhao raised the corners of her mouth, "So spirited, looks like there's no big problem."

Zhao Liuniang was fortunate and grateful, "Thanks to Third Sister-in-law's wound medicine."

After speaking, she looked at Lamei, "Lamei, you hurt your head and lost a lot of blood, it was because of the wound medicine in your Third Aunt's hand that the bleeding stopped. Your Third Aunt saved your life, you must remember this."

Lin Zhao waved her hands, "Why say this, we're all one family. I bought that medicine just in case, I wouldn't be stingy with it for anyone who needed it, it's good that I could help Lamei."

"No matter what, you saved Lamei," Zhao Liuniang insisted.

If she hadn't saved him in time, how could Lamei have woken up so quickly?!

Such a heavy injury, if the blood kept flowing... she didn't dare to think about it.

Lamei, with gauze wrapped around his head, looked at Lin Zhao solemnly and thanked her: "Thank you, Third Aunt."

"Rest well, I'll go bring you chicken soup," Lin Zhao didn't want to argue anymore and called Bangbang to the kitchen.

Not long after.

Lamei drank the delicious chicken soup.

His eyes brightened, "Truly fragrant."

Lin Zhao said: "There's more after you finish. Drink the soup first, I'll fish out a big chicken leg for you in a while."

Being able to eat and drink meant there was no big problem.

Although the Gu family children envied Lamei being able to eat chicken and drink chicken soup, none of them made a fuss. Lamei lost so much blood, he needed to recover, they could eat anything.

Lin Zhao didn't treat the other children poorly either, called Gu Mu, and went to the kitchen to steam buns.

The familiar fragrance spread out.

Even Dazhuang next door was saying: "Aunt Lin is making something delicious."

Wang Chunhua rubbed her grandson's head and said: "After the next batch of mushrooms is sold, our family will also buy a catty of meat."

The Wang family was crazy with joy.

Smelling the fragrance from next door, they ate corn buns in big mouthfuls, imagining they were eating meat.

Yubao and Hengbao were also happy; they hadn't eaten the buns their mother steamed for a long time.

Before the lid was lifted, the little brothers and the twins lay on the windowsill, looking expectant.

Gu Mu looked at her grandsons and granddaughters, her expression kind, "Soon, don't be in a hurry."

While speaking, she lifted the lid, and the fragrance of meat buns spread out.

Yaobao made a fuss wanting some, her voice cute, "Want, want."

Drool was about to drip down.

Yubao skillfully took out a handkerchief, wiped his sister's mouth, his tone coaxing, "The buns just out of the pot are hot, they will burn bubbles on your hands, sister be good, I'll give you half in a while."

Hengbao said in an exaggerated tone: "Exactly, exactly, if you get burned, your hands will be very painful, and it will hurt for several days."

Yaobao looked at him ignorantly, thinking her brother was playing with her, and giggled out loud.

"..."

Bangbang, Tie Dan, and the others were also very excited, helping to move the table, feeding Da Huang and Hu Po, sweeping the courtyard, busy like spinning tops.

Gu Mu called out to eat, the big ones took the small ones to wash their hands, and they rushed over.

Everyone held a bun in their hand.

They had no other thoughts, just focused on eating in big mouthfuls.

Tie Dan opened his mouth too wide and was burned, but didn't know to spit it out, opened his mouth wide and puffed a few times, chewing and swallowing.

"Fragrant! Truly fragrant! It's as delicious as the last time!"

Lin Zhao said: "If it's delicious, eat a few more, take a few back later."

After Huang Xiulan heard the news, she came to see, and left after Lamei woke up. She had left Yu Yu with a neighbor, it wasn't good to keep troubling people.

Tie Dan had oil around his mouth, nodding his head, "Okay."

Everyone finally filled their stomachs.

Gu Yucheng, who learned his son was injured, rushed over, with Gu Fu following behind.

The father and son were panting heavily.

"Liuniang, how is Lamei?" Gu Yucheng looked around, didn't see his son, and his face turned white.

Those eyes were suppressing gloomy emotions, ready to explode at any time. This was toward Old Man Zhao.

Zhao Liuniang hurriedly said: "He's lying in Yubao and Hengbao's room, Third Sister-in-law said not to move him yet. Lamei just ate, he's sleeping right now."

Gu Fu let out a sigh of relief, it was good that he was okay.

Gu Yucheng walked into the room, "I'm taking Lamei to the hospital to see."

If he didn't have a doctor check, he wouldn't be at ease.

A head injury wasn't a small matter.

He went in, wrapped his son in a blanket, hugged Lamei, and walked out.

At this time, Lin Zhao packed five buns and handed them to Zhao Liuniang, "Second Sister-in-law, Second Brother hasn't eaten yet, eat the buns on the road."

Zhao Liuniang was moved, and accepted them without being polite.

Lin Zhao remembered the weather forecast saying there would be a rainstorm at dusk, and told her to bring the rain gear from home.

The real-time weather forecast was something she spent a thousand points to draw, and it was incredibly accurate. It said there would be a rainstorm today, so it would definitely rain.

Zhao Liuniang worshipped educated people and was also very obedient to Lin Zhao; whatever she gave, she accepted.

Everything was prepared, and the couple from the second house left with Lamei.

Yubao gnawed on a bun and said gloomily: "Mother, Lamei brother is okay, right?"

"Right, the wound was treated very timely," Lin Zhao said patiently, "Your second uncle and second aunt taking him for a checkup is just for peace of mind, he's fine."

Hearing this, the brows of the Gu family adults and children all relaxed.

At dusk, the rain came.

It started with bean-sized raindrops.

Gu Yucheng and Zhao Liuniang were almost at the village when it started to rain, so they hurriedly put raincoats on Lamei before worrying about themselves.

"Thanks to your Third Aunt for telling us to bring raincoats, we almost got soaked," Zhao Liuniang was terrified.

Lamei had an injury on his head, if he got rained on...

Gu Yucheng also let out a sigh of relief, "Yes, thanks to Third Sister-in-law."

This family of three had rain gear, while Old Man Zhao, who had finished sweeping through his eldest daughter's in-laws' house and was rushing home, was soaked into a drowned rat.

He was furious, cursing and swearing, rushing to run.

Just as he was running, his foot slipped, and he and the things he had managed to get fell into the water channel together.
