And there is little Li Ming. From the time he was born till now, he has never entered the space once. It’s not that Cheng Qiao doesn’t let him in, but that he simply can’t enter.
She didn't know how many times she had tried. She tried to enter the space while holding little Li Ming in her arms, but she was the only one in the space. She also tried to enter the space while holding little Cheng Li in her left hand and little Li Ming in her right hand, but there were only her and little Cheng Li in the space.
When he was a baby, little Li Ming didn't understand. When he was one year old, he had slowly learned to speak. He always thought that his mother and brother were playing hide-and-seek with him.
Li Huan was happy that there was one more person in the family who received the same treatment as himself, so every time little Li Ming wanted to play hide-and-seek, Li Huan cooperated very well.
"Xiao Chengli, do you remember a place you always went to when you were a kid? There was a big bathroom, little redheads and Saker Falcons, and lots of food."
Little Cheng Li shook his head. He only remembered that Little Redhead and Saker Falcon were on the back mountain. There was no big bathroom there. Mom must be tired or hungry, otherwise why would she think of taking a bath and eating.
"Mom, let's go eat after Dad gets his dentures installed. Also, Mom, I need to pee."
Cheng Qiao no longer had time to discuss the space with little Cheng Li, and hurriedly picked up little Li Ming and pulled little Cheng Li to the bathroom. This time little Cheng Li bravely walked in.
Although the little guy's pants were wet when he came out, his mother never let him wear open-crotch pants, so he had to take off his pants when he urinated, but even after taking off his pants, he still urinated on his pants.
"Mom, I'm sorry."
Cheng Qiao did not blame him at all. It was already very good for a three-year-old child to be able to take off his pants and pee independently and then pull up his pants.
She took out a pair of pants from the backpack for little Chengli to change into, and also changed his shoes. Little Chengli was very happy to see himself clean again. Cheng Qiao took out snacks and water and slowly fed the two children.
As soon as Li Huan came out, he saw this heartwarming scene and felt warm in his heart. A few years ago, he never thought that he would have a beautiful wife, two lovely sons, and become the village chief.
"Qiao, you are a great contributor to my Li family and the most important treasure in my Li Huan's heart. I will protect you and our family for the rest of my life."
Listening to Li Huan's love words, Cheng Qiao's face turned slightly red. This guy not only has a good-looking face, but also a sweet mouth. I wonder if he will change after the reform and opening up.
The family of four walked out of the hospital and first went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a toy hen that lays eggs for little Chengli, and a little jumping frog for little Liming.
The two children looked at the toys in their hands and happily squatted at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative to play. Soon, many children gathered around them. They all liked the hen that laid eggs.
One of the children saw the hen lay an egg and rushed over to grab the egg in his hand. In fact, it was not an egg, but a shell made of two pieces of iron sheets.
When little Cheng Li saw that his toy egg was snatched away, he quickly put the toy away, gave it to Cheng Qiao, and then walked towards the child who stole the toy egg.
The child who took the egg originally wanted to escape, but for some reason, his eyes greedily looked at the little frog jumping on the ground.
The purpose of stealing eggs is to eat them. The little frog is really a fun toy. He looked at the little frog intently, waiting for the opportunity.
But when little Cheng Li snatched the egg from his hand, the child got angry and said, "Why did you snatch my egg?"
"That's my egg, a new toy my mom bought me. And this egg is fake and can't be eaten."
When the little boy heard that it was fake and could not be eaten, he took a closer look at the egg in Xiao Chengli's hand and blushed. Suddenly, he pushed Xiao Chengli, grabbed the happily jumping little frog in his hand and was about to run away.
"Wow… "
When little Li Ming saw his toy being snatched away, he burst into tears loudly. He held Cheng Qiao's clothes with one hand and pointed at the little boy who was about to run away with the other. Since he couldn't speak yet, he could only express himself by crying.
Before the child had taken a few steps, Li Huan grabbed him by the back of his neck and said, "Whose child is this? Why don't you come out and take care of it? I'll give you one minute. If you don't come out, I'll send the child to the police station."
A woman nearby shook her head and said, "This child's parents are both dead, and he lives with his grandfather, who is dying soon. Who will take care of him?"
Li Huan was stunned for a moment, and his hand on the little boy loosened involuntarily. The little boy ran away without looking back. This toy frog was the first toy he had ever had in his life.
She ignored the crying little Li Ming and didn't buy him another one. The reason was simple. Cheng Qiao had already warned them that they should take the bought toys home to play with, but the two stubborn kids insisted on playing with them right away.
No matter how Cheng Qiao persuaded him, little Cheng Li still hesitated. Little Li Ming was simply a spoiled child who would cry if not allowed to play. So let him play.
Now they have tasted the pain of having their toys taken away. If they continue to show off in the future, it will be unacceptable for such young kids to already have vanity.
Ignoring little Li Ming's cries, Cheng Qiao took little Cheng Li's hand and turned away. Li Huan picked up his youngest son, hesitated for a moment, and followed Cheng Qiao.
When they arrived at the entrance of the state-owned restaurant, little Li Ming was still crying, but he was just roaring without tears. Cheng Qiao got angry and asked Li Huan to take him back. How could they eat if he was so willful
When little Li Ming saw that Cheng Qiao was really angry, he cried less, but he still sobbed, trying to get Cheng Qiao's attention. However, Cheng Qiao remained unmoved and took little Cheng Li's hand and walked into the state-owned hotel.
"Son, today is your birthday. Mom will buy you whatever you want to eat."
"Mom, can you forgive your brother? He is still young and doesn't understand."
"If you can stop him from crying and making a fuss, I will forgive him."
Little Cheng Li ran out. I don't know what he said in little Li Ming's ear, but the little guy really stopped crying. Only then did Li Huan dare to take the two children into the door of the state-owned hotel.
The family of four had a birthday meal which was not a happy one but was also a complete one. Even when they returned home, it was quiet, mainly because little Li Ming fell asleep.
Xuhui and Li Le helped Li's mother cook in the kitchen. Today was little Cheng Li's birthday, and they were going to have a good meal in the evening. But when they saw little Li Ming with red and swollen eyes, they didn't know what to say.
"Qiao, what's wrong?"
"Mom, the little guy has been spoiled and won't listen to reason anymore. He will yell at you to death if you don't agree."
Mother Li nodded and suddenly smiled, "Coincidentally, Li Bing was very well behaved when he was young, but Huan was naughty and mischievous. No matter how I beat him, it was useless. Your situation now is the same as mine back then."
Cheng Qiao was stunned and couldn't help but fall into deep thought. Perhaps little Cheng Li had always been a good child, which gave her the illusion that every child should be like little Cheng Li. She seemed to be too strict with little Li Ming.
