Reborn to refuse to be cuckolded! I remarried my ex-husband's mortal enemy
Chapter 163: A white lie should be okay, right?
Auntie will come back and Liu Zilin will not be afraid anymore.
In fact, he had heard from others that his mother had died, but he didn't know what death meant...
"Auntie, when will my mother come back?"
"If mom comes back, no one will call us wild children."
"Some people say that mom is dead, doesn't want us anymore, and will never come back. What does 'dead' mean?"
Ugh.
This, Xu Zijin really didn’t know how to answer.
The child was less than five years old, and she couldn't bear to say that death meant that you would never come back.
She knew it was a lie, but she still had to lie because the truth was cruel.
I want them to know, and I want them to truly understand what "death" means before I tell them...
"Don't listen to what those bad guys say. Zilin's mom and dad have gone to heaven to carry out a mission."
"Although they can't come back for a while, they are watching over you in heaven."
"As long as you behave yourself, they will come back."
In fact, children have a very vague concept of their mothers. They are still young, and they will feel at ease as long as someone treats them well.
Xu Zijin's words comforted the two little brothers, and soon they went to play marbles. Only Liu Ziwang sat there without moving.
"Zi Wang, come here."
Liu Ziwang looked at her and slowly moved over: "What's the matter?"
Xu Zijin held his hand, looked into his eyes, and said seriously, "I know, you must be thinking that Auntie is lying, right?"
Liu Ziwang pursed his lips and said nothing.
Xu Zijin patted his head and said, "Auntie didn't mean to lie, it's just that reality is too cruel, and I don't want to stab my brothers' young hearts."
"When they grow up and become less dependent on their mother, it won't be too late to tell them, right?"
"Sometimes, white lies have to be told."
The seven-year-old Liu Ziwang seemed to understand Xu Zijin's words.
When their mother died, he was only five years old and didn't know much.
The understanding of "death" is even less profound.
Only during the time he spent at his uncle and aunt's house did he understand what his mother's death meant.
Their mother's death meant that they became orphans who could be bullied by anyone.
The death of their mother means that others can beat and scold them at will and treat them like slaves.
Their mother's death meant that the three brothers had to endure it every night even if they were starving and drooling.
Their mother's death meant that even if they got sick, they would have to lie in the straw pile and fend for themselves.
After only half a year at his uncle and aunt's house, his two fat brothers became as thin as skin and bones.
My round face has no flesh at all.
His and his brother's clean bodies were covered with scars.
In order to survive, they gritted their teeth and endured the fatigue to work every day.
Not only that, they didn't dare to cry when they were beaten, and they would snatch pig food when they were hungry. The children in the village called them wild children.
Liu Ziwang knew that if a kind-hearted person had not called Uncle Lu, they would all have died.
When their uncle and aunt took them back, they promised to treat them as their own sons. But after their father's pension came into their hands, they no longer had the smiles they had at the beginning.
At his uncle's house, he worked harder than a cow and ate worse than a pig.
Whenever the younger brother of my uncle's family started crying, my aunt would grab a bamboo stick and beat him without saying a word.
They said he was only concerned with playing himself and not taking good care of his younger brother.
From then on, Liu Ziwang no longer trusted anyone except Uncle Lu who was sincere to them.
But at this moment, Xu Zijin made him confused.
All stepmothers are wolves, but she doesn’t look like a wolf.
She is as gentle as a mother and she can cook the most delicious meals.
When her younger brother was bullied by others, she dared to fight with them.
Many people have said that the stepmother is a wolf, so why doesn’t she look like a wolf?
Could it be that she has the same purpose as her uncle and aunt?
Once her goal is achieved, will her true colors be revealed?
Xu Zijin saw Liu Ziwang's confusion. She knew that the child was still young and could not understand many things.
However, take your time.
Since I promised Lu Hanzhou to take care of them, I must keep my promise.
After patting Liu Ziwang's head, Xu Zijin took a deep breath and said, "Ziwang, whether you understand or not, I, your aunt, have no ill intentions."
"Next, I'm going to be away for a few days, so I'll leave my brothers to you. I believe you can take good care of them, right?"
"Don't you like football? When auntie comes back from the provincial capital, I'll bring you a football and football shoes."
Although Liu Ziwang is still at an age where he doesn't quite understand anything, he has developed his own thoughts after experiencing hardships.
But when faced with the football and sneakers that he had always dreamed of, he had a fierce struggle in his heart.
Perhaps it was Xu Zijin's voice that bewitched him, he nodded solemnly: "Okay, Auntie, I will take good care of my brother, don't worry."
Xu Zijin smiled. She knew that Liu Ziwang was stubborn.
It was not easy to get him to agree.
But people with this kind of stubborn temperament are often the ones who value their promises the most.
Either you never agree, or once you agree, you won't change your mind easily.
Turning back into the house, she brought out an iron box and handed it to him.
"Zi Wang, there are candies and snacks in here. Please follow Auntie's instructions and share them with your brother every day."
"If each of you eat two White Rabbits here every day, it will be enough for you to eat for five days."
"The biscuits here are also two pieces per person per day, and the jelly is one piece per person per day. Can you manage it?"
Looking at the things in the box, Liu Ziwang's face lit up instantly: "Yes! Auntie, I promise to do it."
Xu Zijin looked at him with a smile: "Okay, I believe you!"
"You have to do well this time. I will give you the task of distributing snacks in the future."
"But if you don't do it well and I find out one day, I will never trust you again."
"Take it. Don't let anyone know that you have snacks in your hand. This is a secret between the two of us. Can you keep it?"
"can!"
The little guy looked very excited, afraid that if he nodded too late, he would lose this right.
In fact, Xu Zijin didn't expect a child to really obey, but it was wrong of her to not give him a chance.
After giving the instructions, she went to pack her things.
She had only been back at school for a few days, so she didn't bring much with her, just some clothes to change into.
However, she took out several kilograms of tea that had been kept in the space, intending to give it to someone.
In order not to arouse suspicion, she took it out and put it in her bag.
Lu Hanzhou didn't come back until ten o'clock in the evening. When he came back, Xu Zijin was already in bed.
Xu Zijin, who was about to go to bed, saw Lu Hanzhou come in and asked casually, "Why are you so late?"
"I have something to do. I'll take you there tomorrow morning."
Xu Zijin blinked and said, "No need. The earliest bus from town to the city leaves at 6:50. I can just leave at 6:10."
"Your October competition mission is so heavy, don't delay your training."
"It's okay. I've already asked for leave from the group leader. I'll take you there on my bike as soon as possible."
