As the sprinkler truck stopped, everyone rushed forward. The little ones were originally in the front, but were pushed to the back by the adults.

"How can you be so rude, kid? Didn't your teacher teach you to respect the elderly and love the young?" An old lady immediately scolded the boy.

The man next to him hushed, "Keep your voice down. He's the son of the eldest daughter of the Tang family."

The aunt sneered: "What young lady? If she had married into the Gu family, our Tang City would have benefited from it."

"Ah, yes. Back then, our Tang City was the most powerful in the South, but now it is lagging behind and still needs help from others."

"Don't blame his mother. If she had just lowered her head, would we have had such a hard life? We only have this little water every day and it's like we're hanging on for life." The auntie became more and more excited as she spoke, and her mouth sounded like a machine gun.

"Rumor has it that his father and her mother had a one-night stand."

"What one-night stand? I heard that when several major forces besieged the forbidden area, that..."

The people around immediately started talking, completely ignoring the little boy standing in the crowd.

The little boy listened to the voice in his ears, his head slightly lowered, his little hands tightly holding the iron bucket, and suddenly a golden electric current flashed in his eyes.

Suddenly, a warm hand landed on the little boy's head. The golden current in his eyes disappeared. He looked up at the woman beside him and shouted with grievance, "Mom."

The woman who appeared next to the little boy was Tang Ya. Although she was dressed simply, it could not conceal her unique temperament. Ten years later, Tang Ya seemed to be more charming, with a little more maternal love than before.

When Tang Ya appeared, the surroundings instantly fell silent. They only dared to gossip about her behind her back, but when Tang Ya really appeared, they didn't dare to say a word.

"Xiaochen, why are you up so early?" Tang Ya's smile was still so warm. Tang Chen looked at his mother's smile and his emotions gradually calmed down.

"Mom works so hard, I want her to sleep a little longer." Tang Chen looked very strong, which made Tang Ya feel distressed. What happened between adults had affected the child.

Tang Ya squatted in front of her son, looking at his face, as if she saw Tang Ze.

"No matter how hard it is, it's worth it, Mom. Let's fetch water together, okay?"

"Mom, you go back to sleep. We boys will fetch the water." Tang Chen patted his chest, but in Tang Ya's eyes, this child was just like his father, a male chauvinist.

"You little guy, mom will accompany you to fetch water." Tang Ya stood up and said that. The gentle look on her face disappeared in an instant. She glanced around with cold eyes. She really wanted to kill them all!

But I can't do this. Xiaochen can't follow me to take risks outside. When Xiaochen has a certain strength, it will be time to leave Tang City.

Soon two buckets of water were filled. Tang Chen happily followed his mother home carrying the two buckets of water. He seemed to have forgotten what had just happened, or maybe he was being happy on purpose so that his mother would not worry.

The mother and son lived in an old residential area with only six floors in total. The environment was pretty good. Although they had left the Tang family, Tang Xianming would not let his granddaughter and great-grandson suffer.

After returning home, Tang Ya went to the kitchen to prepare some food, while Tang Chen cleaned the house, folded his own quilt neatly, and also folded his mother's quilt. It can be seen at first glance that he is a boy who loves cleanliness and is very self-disciplined.

"You have an exam at school today. Mom will fry two big eggs for you and serve them with a piece of ham. I wish our little man will get 100 points in the exam." Tang Ya held her son's cheek and encouraged him.

Tang Chen nodded seriously and said, "I will definitely get a perfect score in the exam and won't let others look down on me or my mother."

Listening to her son's words, Tang Ya stroked his hair gently: "Xiaochen is the best, the hero in my heart."

"What about Dad?"

The sudden question made Tang Ya startled, then she smiled softly and said, "Dad is also a hero in Mom's heart."

"Then I am the little hero."

"Hahaha, little hero, you must hurry up and eat your breakfast. A hero will never be late." Tang Ya pinched her son's nose. He is such a naughty boy.

Tang Chen gave one of the eggs in the bowl to his mother: "Mom, you also need to supplement your nutrition, otherwise I will tell Dad later."

With a chuckle, Tang Ya was amused.

"If you tell on mom, then mom will tell on Xiaochen too. Xiaochen is not a good boy at all."

"I'm not being a good kid, mom, please don't say anything nonsense, dad will misunderstand."

If Tang Ze was sitting next to them at this time, he would probably laugh his face off.

"Mom, can you talk about Dad again?" Tang Chen said expectantly.

"You're almost late, and you still want to listen to dad's story." Tang Ya felt like she had repeated it thousands of times, but the child never got tired of listening to it. He was simply his number one fan and admired him very much.

"Dad will bless me to get full marks in the exam."

Tang Ya could only compromise and fell into memories again, with a gentle smile on her face again: "Dad is very handsome."

"How handsome is he?" Tang Chen asked excitedly. Although he had asked this question many times and knew the answer, he felt full of strength after hearing it.

"Very handsome, very handsome, very handsome."

After hearing this, Tang Chen laughed and asked, "What else? What else?"

"Dad is very brave."

"How brave?" Tang Chen asked hurriedly.

"Very, very brave. Dad showed up when mom was in the most dangerous time and saved mom. Now you are my little one." As Tang Ya spoke, the picture in her mind became clearer and clearer.

After hearing this, Tang Chen raised his fist excitedly: "Dad is so handsome and brave. I want to be a man like him and protect mom."

"Well, little man, you're really going to be late."

When Tang Chen looked at the time, he rushed to the door, but after opening it, he turned around and asked.

"Mom, will dad come back?"

Tang Ya nodded gently: "Yes."

"Great, Mom, I'm going to school." After saying that, Tang Chen ran out of the house, and the sound of his happy and cheerful footsteps could still be heard.

Tang Ya, who was standing in the room, couldn't help but have tears in her eyes. Ever since Xiaochen was old enough to understand, she would always ask, "Will Dad come back?"

My answer is always yes.

But for many years, Xiaochen has always believed it, and this belief has also encouraged himself.

He must be alive, he must be...
