Chapter 12 It's Not a Quarrel
Chapter 12 It’s not a quarrel
As soon as Xiao Yuanyuan left, boundless fatigue hit Leng Siyu.
Boxing, cooking, cleaning, and carrying his young sister back and forth between high-rise buildings in the city made of steel and concrete. He was busy from dawn to sunset. No matter how rich his physical reserves were, he could not withstand long-term wear and tear.
Leng Siyu returned to the bedroom, laid herself down on the soft big bed, looked up at the ceiling, letting her thoughts settle in the chaos, and letting her tired mind relax for a moment.
Leng Siyu reached for a photo frame on the bedside table, and slowly touched her father's handsome and stern face on the family portrait with her delicate hands. Her smart eyes gradually became covered with a layer of mist... She restrained herself for a long time, but finally failed to suppress her emotions.
The eruption could not help but sob...
Time still goes back to twelve years ago, when five-year-old Xiao Siyu was armed by Leng Xiang and started boxing training.
"Hey, hey, hey!" Xiao Siyu followed Leng Xiang's instructions and trained in a decent manner. At first, she was very excited, but after a short period of practice, she felt bored, tired and exhausted.
"Dad, punching bags are not fun at all. I don't want to play anymore!" Xiao Siyu took off the boxing gloves and bandages and threw them on the ground.
Leng Xiang picked up the boxing gloves and bandages on the ground and patiently advised Xiao Siyu: "You have to have perseverance in doing things. Kung Fu cannot be practiced in a day or two. It requires training day after day! Come on, practice for a while, be good.
obedient!"
Xiao Siyu couldn't stand Leng Xiang's coaxing and persuading, so she put on her equipment and started training.
But not long after practicing, Xiao Siyu’s hands became red and swollen.
"Dad, my hands hurt so much! I won't practice anymore! Besides, there are so many bad people in the world!" Xiao Siyu once again threw away the bandages, boxing gloves and other protective equipment.
"Okay, let's practice again tomorrow." Leng Xiang said softly.
The next day, when Leng Xiang asked Xiao Siyu to practice boxing and kicking, he couldn't find Xiao Siyu's protective gear.
"Where did you hide them?" Leng Xiang asked Siyu.
"I didn't take it!" Xiao Siyu denied the "criminal" behavior, with a cunning light in her eyes.
"You don't have to practice boxing, but you can't lie." Leng Xiang said seriously.
"I threw it in the trash can, and uncle took it away," Xiao Siyu said, "Dad, I protest, you can't force me to practice kung fu just because you are a dad. This is not what I should bear at my age."
"Well, since you don't want to practice, put the sandbag here for now and practice when you want to practice." Leng Xiang looked at Si Yu's stubborn eyes and gave up helplessly. Leng Xiang's plan to teach his daughter Kung Fu failed for the time being.
Unexpectedly, this matter turned around after one month.
That day, Leng Xiang was watering violets on the balcony with a watering can. Xiao Siyu, who had just returned from kindergarten, cried and threw herself at Leng Xiang.
Leng Xiang put down the watering can, picked up Xiao Siyu, and asked lovingly: "Who bullied our little Siyu?"
"It's Wang Xiaobao. He took away my picture book and pencil case." Xiao Siyu cried loudly.
"Siyu, don't cry, don't cry." Leng Xiang persuaded Xiao Siyu while wiping his tears. Who knew that if he didn't persuade her, it would be fine. The more Leng Xiang persuaded her, the harder Xiao Siyu cried.
Leng Xiang said: "Don't let outsiders see your tears. Tears can't solve any problems. If you want to cry, just find a place where no one is around and cry to your heart's content. After crying, put on armor and act like an iron man who is invulnerable."
"Can't you cry in front of daddy?"
"You can cry all you want in front of daddy."
"Can I cry in front of my mother?"
"You can cry now. When you grow up, you have to protect your mother. Then don't let her see your tears."
"Dad, Wang Xiaobao is so strong. I punched him with my small fists, but I never hit him!"
"When you encounter trouble that you can't solve yourself, you can ask others for help. But outsiders can help you for a while, but they can't help you for a lifetime. Only when you are strong can you effectively protect yourself and your family."
"Dad, then go buy me some protective gear. I want to practice Kung Fu well."
"Now you are not afraid of hardship, tiredness or pain?"
"I'm afraid too, but I'm even more afraid of meeting a more powerful bad guy one day!"...
In this way, tossing sandbags became a compulsory course for Leng Siyu every day, and she continues to do so until now...
Leng Siyu, who was lying on the bed, stopped sobbing not long after. She wiped away the tears on her face with a few tissues, gathered her mood, and then looked at Leng Xiang in the frame again, and said in a very affirmative tone: "Dad,
Don’t worry, I will protect mom and Yuanyuan.”
…
At the same time, there was another scene in room 0301.
The cute pet team composed of Chongchong, Yuanyuan and Baobao get along well with each other and the atmosphere is harmonious.
"Baby roll around!" Chongchong on the sofa shouted to the golden retriever on the ground.
The big golden retriever rolled on the ground, "Woof!"
"Go get the remote control!" Chongchong shouted again.
The golden retriever immediately waggled his tail and went to the TV cabinet to grab the remote control and put it on the sofa, "Woof!"
"Wow, the baby is so cute and smart!" Little Yuanyuan on the sofa smiled from ear to ear.
"Chongchong, it's better not to let your baby play with the remote control, it will bite it. The remote control at my house was bitten by a golden retriever." Hao Xiaoli, who had just taken up the job, said gently to Chongchong.
"Okay, Aunt Hao."
Suddenly the golden retriever ran out of the living room wagging its tail and barked at the door.
"Brother is back. Brother came back very early today!" Xia Chongchong said to Leng Yuanyuan.
Leng Yuanyuan lay next to Xia Chongchong's ear and said, "Brother Pengfei had a fight with my sister today!"
Xia Pengfei walked into the living room, and the big golden retriever showed his kindness in various ways in front of Pengfei. Xia Pengfei brushed the golden retriever away and ordered Hao Xiaoli on the side, "Aunt Hao, please wash the golden retriever."
Hao Xiaoli agreed and took the golden retriever away.
Xia Pengfei sat down next to Xiao Yuanyuan, looked down at Leng Yuanyuan and said, "I seem to feel that Xiao Yuanyuan is saying bad things about me!"
Xiao Yuanyuan said with a smile: "Brother Pengfei is a good person, how could I say bad things about you? I praise you!"
"Your sister and I are not quarreling, it's a friendly exchange of ideas." Pengfei took the teacup handed over by Lan Lan and said in a calm tone.
"Hey, you have windy ears? But there is no wind here." Xiao Yuanyuan looked at Pengfei with incredible eyes.
"I can read minds." Xia Pengfei sipped her tea and teased Xiao Yuanyuan.
"You're fooling me again," Xiao Yuanyuan stood on the sofa and pinched Xia Pengfei's nose, "You can't fool me, you think I'm Chongchong. Brother Pengfei doesn't regard me as a friend anymore.
"
"If I didn't consider you a friend, would I practice ball with you?"
"Dad said you can't lie to your friends and family."
"Really?" Xia Pengfei put down the teacup and asked Xiao Yuanyuan in a low voice, "Then can you tell me when your mother started working?"
"My mother has been working for half a year and rarely comes home. My father has been away for even longer and has not been back for almost a year."
Xia Pengfei was silent for a moment, as if he had guessed something. He walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the sky outside the window. At this time, the sky had all gone down and the sky was much darker...
