Han Ze went to the town. Liu Juhua didn't see Han Ze. She turned her gaze to other members of the Han family, expecting them to say a few words for her. After all, she was Han Ze's mother. If she lost face, Han Ze would also be embarrassed.
However, apart from Han Ze, no one in charge of the Han family takes Liu Juhua seriously. As for Han Ze being embarrassed as well, it's just overthinking. Liu Juhua, as a mother, was so shameless that she got pregnant with a child conceived out of wedlock and gave birth to the child openly. If you want to talk about being embarrassed, she had already lost face more than 20 years ago. How much more embarrassing can she be
Liu Juhua glanced at the indifferent Han Maode with hatred in her eyes, and looked at Ge Hongbu Niang and the others. Under the power of their original bodies, Ge Hongbu Niang and the others had to recognize Liu Juhua as the remarried mother-in-law and grandmother, but their words had no weight and they had no status in this family. Whether they wanted to help or not, they could not help.
Seeing Ge Hongbu's expression, Liu Juhua knew she couldn't count on her. She cursed inwardly and said unhappily, "When Han Ze comes back, ask him to go to my house and tell him I have something to talk to him about."
Ge Hongbu responded, "Alas."
Before leaving, Liu Juhua glanced at Han Maode intentionally or unintentionally. Han Maode didn't even raise his eyelids. She snorted, glanced at Wang Lanhua with contempt, then turned around and left.
Wang Lanhua did not take Liu Juhua's little tricks seriously. She had lived her whole life by calculating others. As long as she felt good, it was fine. Thinking of the task Han Ze gave her, she felt a headache. She went back to the house and rummaged through the drawers and found a silver bracelet. She took it in her hand and touched it reluctantly, then gritted her teeth and wrapped it up. As long as her two daughters were well, it was just a silver bracelet. There was nothing to be reluctant about.
She came out and said to Han Maud, "I'm going back to my parents' home. Since Han Ze wants the children to learn needlework from my eldest sister-in-law, I have to go there in person."
Han Maode opened his eyes and said, "Go ahead. We are going to ask for help. Even though she is your sister-in-law, you must show her the proper courtesy."
Wang Lanhua waved her hand and said with a half-smile, "Don't worry. Han Ze has rarely asked me to help him with something over the years. For the sake of his calling me mother, I have to do it for him."
Han Maode was helpless: "That guy is just a jerk..."
Wang Lanhua didn't care: "Whether he is a jerk or not, as long as he is willing to teach Xiaochun and Xiaodong to read and write, I will be grateful to him."
"You are a good one." Han Maode thought to himself. His luck was not too bad after all, as he was able to marry Wang Lanhua. If he had changed his wife, his family would not have an easy life given Han Ze's temper.
Wang Lanhua felt a little embarrassed when she walked out of the door. It was okay. She was just a country woman. She couldn't say anything profound. She just knew that she shouldn't force or think about things that were not hers.
Besides, her two sons are strong and have a lot of strength. As long as they are willing to work, how can they go hungry? Living with their own hands is a solid life.
Liu Juhua is good at calculating, but if Han Ze doesn't buy her account, who can she calculate against? She gets anxious sometimes.
Han Ze went to town today and brought Xiao Liuzi with him.
Xiao Liuzi couldn't speak since he was a child. His family thought he was a fool. The original body didn't like him very much and was more violent to him than to the other girls. Although Xiao Liuzi was young and couldn't speak, he knew that his father disliked him and usually avoided him. Han Ze held his hand and could still feel his fear.
Han Ze took out a pill that the medical department had prepared for Xiao Liuzi. When the medical department prepared the pill, they took into account that the consumer was a child, so the pill's taste and shape were similar to candy beans. He glanced at Xiao Liuzi and said in a gentle voice, "Xiao Liuzi, do you want some candy?"
Xiao Liuzi didn't understand why his father, who had scared him before, now made him want to get close to him. Even so, he didn't say anything, but just looked at Han Ze timidly and eagerly.
Han Ze's heart softened, and he handed the pill to Xiao Liuzi: "If you like it, take it yourself."
Xiao Liuzi hesitated at first, and looked at Han Ze for a long while. After making sure that what he said was true, he reached out and grabbed the pill, quickly put it into his mouth, pursing his lips tightly, as if he was afraid that someone else would snatch it away.
Han Ze was stunned for a moment, then he laughed. This kid wasn't stupid at all, he was clearly a little rascal. He was very afraid of him at first, but once he saw that he wouldn't beat or scold him like before, he took the initiative to snatch the food, which was really unexpected.
Han Ze smiled and asked, "Are the candy beans delicious?"
Xiao Liuzi lowered his head and said nothing, but he chewed the pills with a crackling sound. Han Ze touched his little head and said, "Just follow your father. If you like to eat candy, your father will buy it for you."
Xiao Liuzi suddenly looked up, thought for a moment, and then stood obediently beside Han Ze, looking like he was listening to his father.
Han Ze laughed. He finally realized that this boy was more cunning than his sisters.
Arriving in the town, Han Ze first took Xiao Liuzi to find a clinic based on his memory. Cases like Xiao Liuzi's were rare, so after the doctor examined him again and again, Han Ze hurriedly asked, "Can my child's idiocy be cured?"
The doctor looked at him and said, "This child can understand what I say and perform accurate actions according to my instructions. How can he be stupid? Although his eyes are a little dull, it may be because he is scared."
Han Ze asked in surprise: "Doctor, do you mean my son is not stupid?"
The doctor said impatiently, "He's not stupid, but he can't speak, so there's something wrong with him."
Han Ze frowned: "He couldn't speak since he was a child."
The doctor had never encountered such a case before. Even some children with muteness were in a different situation from this child. The doctor couldn't explain what happened, but just said that he might be born mute.
Han Ze knew that Xiao Liuzi was not born dumb. In the original owner's memory, Xiao Liuzi often cried when he was a child, so how could he be born dumb? Besides, the system had checked that he was a late talker at first, but he was scared later.
Han Ze hesitated and said, "He cried when he was a child. Could it be that he was scared?"
The doctor stroked his beard, frowned and asked, "Has this child really been frightened?"
Han Ze looked embarrassed and said ashamedly: "It's my fault. My wife gave birth to five girls in a row, and finally a boy came. He couldn't speak yet. I thought he was a fool and often beat and scolded him..."
The doctor frowned and snorted, "Even adults can be so frightened that they can't speak, let alone such a young child. He is so confused."
Han Ze's face flushed, and he said hesitantly, "Doctor, what do you think we should do with this child?"
The doctor thought for a moment and said, "There's nothing wrong with his throat, and he can't take any random medicine. I'll prescribe some tranquilizers for him to take and see how it goes?"
Han Ze nodded hurriedly.
Coming out of the clinic, Han Ze hugged Xiao Liuzi and kissed him on the face, "My son is not a fool."
Xiao Liuzi looked at him with a look of intimacy in his eyes, and he obviously liked his father kissing him. Han Ze couldn't help but kiss him on the face again.
Han Ze squatted down and asked Xiao Liuzi: "Shall we go buy some candy now?"
Xiao Liuzi looked at Han Ze without saying anything.
Han Ze added: "If you don't say anything, Dad won't buy it."
Xiao Liuzi was a little anxious and looked at Han Ze. His father didn't keep his word, so he was just being obedient.
Han Ze pinched his nose and said, "How about this, if you agree that we should go buy candy now, just nod your head, how about that?"
Xiao Liuzi understood and nodded his little head continuously.
Han Ze laughed, "Okay, okay, Dad agrees to buy you candy, if you keep ordering, do you want your head?"
Xiao Liuzi stopped quickly, and there were tiny smiles in his ignorant eyes.
The father and son went to the pastry shop and bought not only candy but also several bags of pastries. Han Ze carried the things and stuffed a piece of candy into his son's mouth. On the way back, he saw someone selling candied haws. Xiao Liuzi stared at the candied haws for several times, his eyes full of desire.
Han Ze knew that he wanted it. The child could not speak since he was young and was considered a fool by his family. Han Ze did not allow him to go out, let alone come to town, and he had never eaten candied haws.
Han Ze pointed at the candied haws and asked him, "Do you want some?"
Xiao Liuzi nodded vigorously. Han Ze said, "It's not enough to just nod this time. You have to say you want it."
Xiao Liuzi pursed his lips and said nothing.
Han Ze was not in a hurry and squatted down: "Come and tell Daddy what you want, what you want. As long as you tell him what you want, Daddy will buy you candied haws. Want, want..."
Xiao Liuzi still pursed his lips and looked at Han Ze expressionlessly.
Han Ze stood up and said regretfully: "Since Xiao Liuzi doesn't like candied haws, forget it, let's go home."
After taking two steps, Xiao Liuzi grabbed Han Ze's collar. Han Ze lowered his head and looked at him: "What's wrong?"
Xiao Liuzi looked at the candied haws. Han Ze squatted down again and said with a smile, "Want to eat candied haws?"
Xiao Liuzi nodded, and Han Ze smiled and said, "If you want to eat, just say you want to. Dad knows that Xiao Liuzi can talk. If you want to..."
Xiao Liuzi lowered his head, and Han Ze stood up. "Since Xiao Liuzi doesn't want to talk about it, then forget it."
Xiao Liuzi became anxious, grabbed Han Ze's hand and raised his head.
Han Ze smiled and squatted down: "Say it again."
Xiao Liuzi raised his head again, and then his little face showed a look of annoyance. Why was what he said different from what his father said
Han Ze stroked his head and said, "It doesn't matter. It's different. Dad will buy you some candied haws."
Xiao Liuzi was holding a candied haws in his hand. Thinking of the candy in his mouth, he looked at his father. Han Ze pinched his nose and said jokingly, "The candied haws won't run away. Eat the candy in your mouth after you finish it, then eat the candied haws."
Xiao Liuzi looked at the candied haws and then at his father, which was considered as his agreement.
Taking Xiao Liuzi with him, Han Ze didn't plan to buy anything else and went straight home.
As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the village, he met Han Chengming and his two sons Han Jiwen and Han Jixue walking home. Han Chengming saw Han Ze, who was standing there with his two sons waiting for him. Han Ze approached, but ignored them and walked straight past them holding Xiao Liuzi.
Han Chengming was stunned, and couldn't believe that Han Ze treated him like this. Han Jiwen and Han Jixue saw Xiao Liuzi eating candied haws, and Han Ze was holding several strings of candied haws in his hand. They swallowed their saliva. Han Jixue couldn't help but shouted: "Uncle, I want to eat candied haws. Didn't you buy those candied haws for us? Why didn't you give them to us?"
Han Ze said, "If you want to eat candied haws, ask your dad to buy them for you."
After saying that, he left.
Han Chengming frowned and chased after him, questioning: "Brother, the two children just want to eat a string of candied haws, and you are reluctant to give them up?"
Han Ze raised his eyebrows and looked at him, deliberately saying: "If they were my nephews, I would give them my family fortune, not to mention two strings of candied haws."
If it were any other children, he would not be reluctant to give up the two strings of candied haws, but when he thought about what these two children would do in the future, he couldn't soften his heart.
When Han Chengming heard Han Ze talking about giving them his family fortune, his eyelids jumped and he said hurriedly, "They are your nephews. They are all your mother's grandsons."
At this point he glanced at Xiao Liuzi and added, "They are just like Xiao Liuzi, they all call their mother grandma."
Han Ze was about to laugh: "It's true that grandma is a grandma, but who made their grandpa not a grandpa?"
Han Chengming choked.
Han Ze added: "Grandpa decides fate. If you were my father's child, then uncle would not have given me the money alone."
At this point, he patted Han Chengming on the shoulder and said, "If you want to blame someone, blame your mother. Who made her give birth to you as Uncle Xingwang's child?"
Han Chengming looked at him angrily, but Han Ze ignored him and took Xiao Liuzi away.
Han Jiwen and Han Jixue saw their uncle had left and asked hurriedly, "Dad, uncle hasn't given us the candied haws yet?"
Han Chengming was so angry that he slapped him aside and shouted, "Eat, eat, eat. All you know is eating. What else do you know?"
Han Jixue burst into tears. Han Chengming looked at them and walked away.
