When Ding Lan hurriedly rode a battery car to pick up her son at the gate of the primary school, she only saw the head teacher with a big belly waving at her, and her son standing beside her with eyes.

"Sorry sorry, I'm late from get off work, I'm so sorry teacher."

Not only is Ding Lan wearing a helmet, but she is also wearing a mask. The weather in May is not so mild. The class teacher looked at the sweat on her forehead and said softly.

"It's okay, my wife is coming to pick me up too. By the way, I'll be on maternity leave starting tomorrow, and then the new head teacher will take over my class. As for the specific situation, I will explain it in the group. Please pay attention when the time comes." .”

"Alright, alright, Lixin, come and say goodbye to the teacher."

Ding Lan touched Yang Lixin's head and said softly.

"goodbye teacher."

Yang Lixin, who is already in the second grade, is relatively shy, and he is also a student who doesn't talk much in the class.

"Goodbye."

The teacher waved at them. Not long after Ding Lan left on the battery bike, a young man walked out from the school gate.

"Teacher Xiao."

"Teacher Wong."

Xiao Le nodded to her with a smile, just as Mo Cheng's car was coming, "Teacher Wang, let's go together."

"No, no, my wife will come right away," Mr. Wang smiled and shook his head.

That being the case, Xiao Le didn't invite any more. After getting into Mo Cheng's car, Mo Cheng leaned over and kissed him on the face, and then followed in the direction Ding Lan left. It didn't take long before he saw the mother and son.

"Ding Lan's current favorability is -10."

Xiao Le pulled out the system to check and said.

"For a man who only knows how to drink and beat himself all day long, this level of affection is a bit too high."

Mo Cheng sneered.

"This kind of person can control violence with violence."

After rubbing his chin, Xiao Le looked at Mo Cheng with a smile, "Is the shop down yet?"

"It's ready. After simple decoration, we can open for business," Mo Cheng saw that Ding Lan had entered the community, so he also drove in the car. In order to be closer to the mission target, they had already bought a house in this community.

After Ding Lan entered the house, she asked Yang Lixin to wash his hands first, "Eat some apples after washing your hands."

But after Yang Lixin changed his shoes, he didn't do so immediately, but stretched out his little hand to Ding Lan.

Ding Lan pursed her lips, knelt down and looked at him, "What's wrong?"

Yang Lixin suddenly took off her mask, revealing Ding Lan's slightly red and swollen cheeks, "Dad..."

"It's okay." Ding Lan turned her head away and pushed him lightly, "Go and wash your hands, mom will cut the fruit for you."

Yang Lixin gave her a teary look before trotting to wash his hands.

Ding Lan took off his helmet and mask, and while washing his hands in the kitchen, he looked at himself on the window. There was a big green bump on his temple, and there were fingerprints on both cheeks, which might take two days to disappear.

Listening to the movement in the bathroom, she quickly cut up the fruit and brought it to the living room for Yang Lixin to eat while watching cartoons.

Then went into the kitchen to work on dinner.

That person won't come back to eat at night, so it's fine to make her and the child's.

In less than half an hour, Ding Lan put the food on the table, "Lixin, eat."

"handwashing."

Yang Lixin got up and went to the bathroom with his little hands raised.

Seeing this, Ding Lan smiled slightly. When Yang Lixin came out, the mother and son had finished their meal warmly. She didn't expect that when Ding Lan was about to clean up the dishes, there was a movement from the gate, her face changed, and then she saw Yang Jun coming in ostentatiously. .

"Eat it all? Don't wait for me," Yang Jun frowned as he looked at the plate on the table.

Yang Lixin hugged Ding Lan's leg tightly and looked at Yang Jun timidly.

"I thought you were going to eat outside." Ding Lan patted Yang Lixin's head, "Can Lixin go back to his room to play with toys? Mommy will cook."

Yang Lixin shook his head and followed Ding Lan step by step.

Yang Jun, on the other hand, took off his shirt, just slumped on the sofa, and tuned the channel that was broadcasting cartoons to the place he was interested in.

Ding Lan pursed her lips when she heard the TV sound change, she looked down at the child following her, and remembered what her parents had said to her:

For the sake of the child, bear with it and wait for Yang Jun to find a job.

They have been unemployed for more than a year. In the past year, Yang Jun has not gone out to find any work except drinking with friends. Friends have introduced some, but Yang Jun doesn't like it.

Every time he drank, Yang Jun would come back to criticize him. Once he felt that Ding Lan was looking at him in the wrong way, or said something he didn't like to hear, he would slap him a few times, and he would slap him harder...

Ding Lan only felt severe pain in her waist.

"Mom, I'm afraid."

Yang Lixin looked at her with watery eyes.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, Dad didn't drink today, and he didn't beat anyone."

Ding Lan pulled out a smile to comfort the child.

After Yang Jun ate, Ding Lan cleaned up the table and the kitchen. When she came out, she saw Yang Jun teasing Yang Lixin, but Yang Lixin was full of fear. When she saw Ding Lan come out, she hurried over and hugged her leg.

"Do you think what temperament you have cultivated him? Worse than a little girl! Is it the temperament of our Yang family?"

Seeing this, Yang Jun felt very displeased, and thought of the courageous and lively child of his friend's family, and began to talk about the difference between the two children.

"He'll be fine when he grows up," Ding Lan didn't dare to refute his words, and took Yang Lixin to take a bath. After she put the child to sleep and cleaned the house, Yang Jun, who was lying on the sofa and smoking, said suddenly.

"How much money do you have at home?"

Yang Jun put the bank card here with Ding Lan. More than a year ago, it contained the wages saved by the two of them, but now only Ding Lan deposited it every month.

She is the acting store manager of a small supermarket, with a monthly salary of [-] to [-], and a bonus at the end of the year.

But she has to repay the mortgage by herself, and she has to support a family of three, and she has to find a way to save some money just in case, so she spends all her salary every month.

"Only a few thousand dollars."

"How many thousand dollars?"

Yang Jun sat up in shock, "I remember tens of thousands in it! What did you do with it?"

Seeing his irritable face, Ding Lan endured the fear, and whispered back: "For more than a year, you and your friends drink and party, and the minimum consumption each time is several hundred, and you have to buy wine and so on. You have already used up all the money. That’s right, those thousands of yuan were saved little by little in the last six months.”

As she said that, Ding Lan saw that his expression was a little strange, so she quickly took out her mobile phone and checked, there were still a few dollars in it.

She shook her whole body, leaned on the chair and sat down, "Have you used it?"

"Isn't this a meal together a few days ago to do business for the relationship? Fortunately, I didn't invite anyone today, and I couldn't buy a pack of cigarettes downstairs."

Yang Jun pursed his lips and didn't feel guilty.

"Look at your ugly face? Did I treat you badly?"

Seeing that Ding Lan was in tears, Yang Jun got angry and followed suit.

"When I make a lot of money, it won't be yours? Why cry!"

His roar woke up Yang Lixin, and when the child's cry came from the room, Ding Lan stopped arguing with Yang Jun and hurried to comfort the child.

Around 10:30, Yang Jun fell asleep on the sofa, snoring like thunder.

Ding Lan sat on the bed, looking at the found balance, her heart ached.

This is the money she prepared for her child. She was afraid that someone with a cold would need it urgently, so she turned off the online payment on purpose.

As a result, Yang Jun took the bank card.

Ding Lan just felt that she couldn't take it any longer.

Seeing that Mr. Wang brought the new head teacher into the group, Ding Lan hurriedly sent out a welcome message, and then added the head teacher.

Early the next morning, Ding Lan started to get busy. After cooking and having breakfast with her child, she first sent her to the gate of the primary school, told her to study hard, and then rode a battery car to the small supermarket.

In addition to her, there are two aunts in charge of sales in the small supermarket.

Seeing her coming to the door wearing a mask again, one of the aunts couldn't help but said, "Did you go crazy again?"

Obviously yesterday was fine.

"Well," Ding Lan has known each other for many years, and she didn't hide it, "I didn't drink last night, but I lost all my money."

"Just the little money you worked so hard to save?"

The other aunt was shocked.

"Yes," Ding Lan took a deep breath, "I don't know when this day will end."

"Oh, it's really shameful, so let's just leave!"

"But what about the child? He can let the child follow Ding Lan? If there is a stepmother, there will be a stepfather. The life of the child will be difficult in the future!"

How could Ding Lan not know this? She just knew that she couldn't win the custody of the child, so she didn't dare to divorce.

"The guests are here," the aunt quickly whispered when she noticed a tall young man walking in with sharp eyes.

The three stopped talking and were busy with their own work.

Mo Cheng chose some things and came here to pay the bill. Ding Lan quickly packed them up, "Sir, it's 208 yuan in total."

He nodded, and after paying the money, he carried his things but didn't leave immediately, but asked with a smile, "I want to ask, is there any decoration company with a good reputation around here?"

Ding Lan felt that the company that refurbished their houses was not bad, so she told Mo Cheng about the location, "But I'd better take a look around, it's more reassuring."

"Thank you."

Mo Cheng thanked him and left with his things.

"This kid looks really good, and he's so tall, he looks like a star."

The curly-haired aunt said with a smile.

"Yeah, looking at Yansheng, he should have moved here not long ago."

The other aunt nodded. They have lived in this neighborhood all their lives, and they have sharp eyes.

The goods came after get off work, and Ding Lan was delayed for a while. When she arrived at the school, she saw a young man talking to the child with a smile on her face. Ding Lan hurried forward.

"Mr. Xiao?"

"Hello, I'm Lixin's homeroom teacher," Xiao Le greeted, and asked Yang Lixin to go to the guard room to get his schoolbag. Taking this opportunity, he said to Ding Lan with a serious face.

"Did Lixin experience something terrible?"

Ding Lan was taken aback, "No."

"He is not in the right state, parents should pay attention, this young child is easily influenced by the outside world, resulting in a great change in personality, if possible, it is better to ask him what happened recently."

Ding Lan was taken aback by Xiao Le's words, and subconsciously remembered that Yang Jun went crazy last week. When she was beaten, the child was standing at the door crying, and saw the whole process of her beating!

"Did you remember something?"

Seeing that her expression was wrong, Xiao Le asked with concern.

"No, no, don't worry, teacher, I will pay attention."

Seeing Yang Lixin coming, Ding Lan smiled.

"Don't blame me for talking too much, because my grandfather is a psychologist and my grandmother is also a doctor, so I know more or less, please don't mind."

Xiao Le also said with some embarrassment, "I just found that he doesn't talk to his classmates very much, and if a child's voice is louder, he will tremble."
