It seems that he has neglected his duty as a father!
He sighed helplessly.
"I give you the same thing as your mother. I didn't care enough about you before. I will make it up to you in the future."
When Huo Haowen took the money, he was not as happy as a child getting pocket money.
Instead, I became more worried.
It seemed that the stepmother must be angry with him.
He still wants to slap himself.
Why did you just talk so quickly about the money your stepmother owed?
Why!
What should I do now?
After leaving his father's room, Huo Haowen kept lingering at his stepmother's door, not daring to go in.
Jiang Mengning came out and almost hit someone.
"Ah, you scared me!"
Huo Haowen looked at his stepmother nervously: "What are you going to do!"
"What am I doing? I'm taking a shower! What else can I do!"
"Oh, then I'll go get you some water."
He quickly went to the kitchen, brought hot water to the bathhouse, and mixed the bath water.
Very attentive.
"Well, the water is ready, you can wash it!"
He handed the towel to Jiang Mengning respectfully.
Jiang Mengning snorted funny, this guy wanted to apologize but was embarrassed, so he proved it with his actions.
What a weird kid.
She took the towel and entered the bathing shed.
"Thanks, get me the bath water."
Huo Haowen laughed happily after receiving this thank you.
The fact that the stepmother can still talk to him proves that he is not angry anymore.
That's fine, that's fine. If his stepmother ignores him today, he won't be able to sleep all night.
"Well, I have my final exam in two days. In fact, I have been studying very hard recently. I will definitely do well this time and I won't embarrass you."
Trying to study hard to make my stepmother happy.
Jiang Mengning's voice came.
"Really, then I wish you good luck."
Huo Haowen was in a good mood and returned to the room with his little hands behind his back.
The next day.
Jiang Mengning still woke up to the sound of the horn.
I stretched myself out and opened my eyes. The sun was shining brightly outside the window and the sky was clear.
another beautiful day.
It's just that she seems to be used to being woken up by the horn, and she doesn't know if she can get used to it without this sound in the future.
When I got out of bed, Nian Nian was already up and brushing her teeth.
Seeing his mother, the little guy shouted happily, "Mom, I didn't sleep in today."
The little girl's mouth is full of bubbles, and she looks so cute when she talks.
"That's great. How about I tell you a story after we finish eating?"
"good."
After breakfast, the two moved chairs to the yard and started telling stories.
The temperature in the morning is very comfortable, the sun is not very strong, and it shines warmly on people.
Near noon, two people came to the gate of the military area.
"Officer, please excuse me, we are looking for Jiang Mengning."
It was none other than Mrs. Bai and Bai Huiru.
"Who are you to her?"
Bai Huiru said: "We are very good friends. We are from the town. At home..."
The soldiers guarding the gate relaxed their vigilance only after they announced their door.
"You guys wait a moment, I'll find someone to come over."
I happened to meet Huo Jinyan halfway: "Captain, there are two people outside the door looking for your wife."
"knew."
He originally wanted to go home, so he had to turn back and lead people in.
What he saw were unfamiliar faces. In his memory, he did not recognize these two people.
I guess they were friends Jiang Mengning made outside.
After checking the information, he led the people into the military area.
"follow me!"
"Okay, thank you officer."
Madam Bai pulled Bai Huiru and followed Huo Jinyan.
The military area is heavily guarded and there are soldiers walking around with their heads high.
Mrs. Bai couldn't help but asked Huo Jinyan.
"Comrade officer, do you know Jiang Mengning?"
"Um."
Huo Jinyan hummed briefly, not intending to say more.
He is a slow-warming person and is quite indifferent to strangers.
"Then do you know who the man she married is? I heard that she married a second-married man with two children. What is the situation of that man? Is he old?"
Huo Jinyan: "...well, it's quite big!"
Mrs. Bai and Bai Huiru's eyes were filled with anxiety.
Mrs. Bai patted her thigh anxiously: "Oh, I just said that the child married an old man. It's such a pity. How could such a beautiful girl have such a miserable fate!"
Bai Huiru's eyes immediately became moist.
"Well, Sister Beauty is so pitiful."
Huo Jinyan: "..."
Mrs. Bai didn't give up and asked again: "Comrade officer, what is that man's temper like?"
" generally."
"Oh, she's old-tempered and bad-tempered, and she definitely doesn't look that good either. Meng Ning really hasn't had a good life."
Mrs. Bai couldn't help wiping her tears as she spoke.
"Forget it before. If that man continues to be violent in the future, I have to persuade Meng Ning to get a divorce. For such a good girl, I can help her find a good one even after she gets divorced. It's much better than the old man."
Huo Jinyan: "..." He didn't dare to say anything.
Duan Xiaowu followed not far behind them and listened to everything they said.
He asked the people around him in confusion: "The old, ugly and bad-tempered person they mentioned is our group leader?"
"Uh... It seems so, but it was admitted by the leader himself."
Duan Xiaowu: "...why does he insult himself like this?"
"I don't know, I just think the girl behind the group leader is so pretty! Hehe..." Drooling crazily.
Duan Xiaowu: "...it looks good...well, it does look good, hehehehe..."
Huo Jinyan brought people home.
Jiang Mengning was sitting on a wicker chair in the yard drinking something, while Nian Nian was playing aside and talking to her mother from time to time.
Hearing the movement at the door, Jiang Mengning raised her eyes and saw the person coming.
"Ah, why are you here?"
She stood up and went over.
Bai Huiru opened her arms and hugged the beautiful sister.
"Sister Beauty, I miss you so much!"
The voice was still crying.
Jiang Mengning didn't understand: "What's wrong with you? Who made you angry?"
Mrs. Bai patted Jiang Mengning's back and comforted: "Child, we all know."
She took a look at the environment of the house. In her eyes, it was quite desolate.
"You live in a place like this and are married to an unsatisfactory old man. You feel bitter. I know that I have wronged you. Such a good child like you really shouldn't have such a fate."
Both mother and daughter are emotional people, and they shed tears when they talk about sad things.
Jiang Mengning: "..." looked at Huo Jinyan: "A dissatisfied old man?"
Huo Jinyan nodded: "Yes, an ugly old man with a bad temper and domestic violence."
Madam Bai then looked at Huo Jinyan and approved of his words.
"Look, there are not many people in the world who have all these characteristics. Meng Ning, why did you choose such a person? I feel bad for you. You are so unlucky."
"By the way, we have to thank this comrade officer for bringing us in. There will be nothing going on here. You can go about your business!"
Huo Jinyan curled his lips and walked into the house by himself.
Mrs. Bai looked at him suspiciously: "Why did he go home?"
Jiang Mengning said happily: "Because he is the old man you mentioned! He might go home and look for the mirror secretly!"
See if you are old, ugly and prone to domestic violence.
"What!"
