The Cannon Fodder Strikes Back - Chapter 77
Counting days, Han Jiang has lived in this remote town for more than a month. Although his injury has not healed, it does not affect him to knock on the door of the opposite house on time every day.
Although Yunjinshu still didn’t say much to him, and turned a blind eye to his enthusiastic gaze more often, he didn’t care at all in his heart, and he still found various excuses to approach Yunjinshu every day.
It’s not to send food or food, or some inconspicuous but very practical daily necessities, or to bring some weird gadgets to make kidney beans happy… Yun Jinshu is upset and irritable, but there is nothing to do.
What can he do? Boom and boom can’t go, beat and can’t beat, even if you give him an iceberg face every day, this person can still smile at you cheeky.
“Han Jiang, I never knew your cheeks could be like this.”
Someone smiled low, stuffed the toy in his arms into Kidney Bean’s hand, rubbed the little guy’s head and said, “Well, I will continue to work hard in the future, is it Bean?”
“Hmm!” With the lollipop bought by Han Jiang in his mouth, the little guy stretched out two small paws and climbed onto his waist, nodding heavily.
We must continue to work hard and try to buy more delicious beans for beans!
Han Jiang laughed, raised him and kissed him a few times, the little guy giggled with joy.
Yun Jinshu gritted his teeth with hatred, wishing to grab kidney beans and hit his little **** a few times, this little **** who eats inside and out!
In the past half month, Yun Jinshu has found a job as a support teacher at Hope Primary School in the town. Although his education level is not high, he is still more than enough to teach elementary school students, so he rides a second-hand bicycle diligently every day for a long distance. Mountain road to go to work.
Han Jiang persuaded him many times, but Yun Jinshu ignored him, and he still left early and returned late. Although he is not short of money, it is always ugly to be a healthy man who always stays at home to accompany his children. What’s more, he really doesn’t want to stay at home and face Han Jiang’s siege.
On this day, Yun Jinshu came home from get off work and was about to go to the kindergarten to pick up the children. He ran into Aunt Li who was walking around.
Aunt Li greeted him enthusiastically, “Xiao Jin, are you just getting off work?”
Yun Jinshu smiled and nodded, “Well, I just got off work to pick up kidney beans home.”
Aunt Li gave him a surprised look, “Really? I saw your cousin picking up kidney beans just now. Speaking of, when did you have an extra cousin, Xiaojin? I would reduce it if I knew he was your cousin. I’ve got the money for the room, but is he planning to stay here forever and not return to the city?”
Yun Jinshu was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the “cousin” Aunt Li said was Han Jiang, and he nodded vaguely, “He is a distant relative of me. He stays here for a few days and leaves.”
“That’s it.” Aunt Li cast a pity at her mouth, “Then does he have a wife? I think the young man looks very energetic and wants to introduce him to someone. Although you two are relatives, you can’t do it this way. Child? You have to find a mother-in-law.”
Yun Jinshu didn’t know how to continue, and he tugged at the corner of his mouth and said, “This Aunt Li, you have to talk to him, don’t ask me, I can’t be the master of others’ private affairs.”
“You child.” Aunt Li laughed, patted Yun Jinshu on the shoulder and said, “What about you? Have you considered what I told you before?”
“I heard from my grandson that Douzi often cried at school because his friends said he had no mother. Are you really willing to let him be wronged? Even if your cousin can help you with your baby for a while, he still has to marry. Wife and child, you are not a long-term solution. Auntie treats you as a son. You really have to think about personal issues.”
“I…” Yunjinshu was troubled and didn’t know how to speak.
Aunt Li regarded Yunjinshu’s embarrassment as shy, and said with a smile, “Actually, I am not afraid of your jokes. My niece likes you very much. She is also a teacher at your school. I am embarrassed to make an appointment with you personally, so I can only come here with a shame You, if you can afford to see your auntie, you can find a chance to meet her. Auntie promises that my niece is a good girl.”
Yun Jinshu was speechless. Kidney Dou looked happily in front of him every day, but never cried in front of him because there was no mother. It turned out that the last time he asked himself about this, he was testing his own tone. As a result, I did not give the child a satisfactory answer…
Thinking of Kid Dou crying in the kindergarten alone, Yun Jinshu felt sad, but admitted that Aunt Li was right, and he would have to face this issue sooner or later.
After a few breaths, Yun Jinshu opened his mouth with difficulty, “Then… you let me think about it again.”
Aunt Li knew that Yunjinshu never talked full, since she could say this to prove that she was loose, she happily “hey”, took out a pen and paper to write a string of phone calls, and stuffed it into Yunjinshu’s hand. in.
“This is my niece’s phone number. Let’s talk about it first. It’s good for young people to make friends.”
Yun Jinshu nodded vaguely, and then he never heard anything Aunt Li said.
——
At seven o’clock in the morning that day, Han Jiang knocked on the door of Yunjin Shu’s house on time, and the door opened to him turned out to be a sleepy kidney bean.
The little guy wore a pair of fluffy little yellow duck slippers, rubbed his sleepy eyes and glanced at Han Jiang at the door, pasted it like a baby, and muttered, “Hey, uncle, here you are, the beans are so sleepy that they want to hug you. …”
Although Han Jiang was immune to Kidney Bean’s coquettish offensive for a long time, he still couldn’t help but pick him up, holding the stubble to the little guy’s face, smiling and asking him, “Why don’t you sleep longer?”
Kidney Dou yawned two more times, and a big nasal bubble popped out of her nose. “Today’s kindergarten celebration, Douzi is going to the party, and I will have apples when I am late.”
Han Jiang laughed and rubbed his dull hair, “What about your father? Why are you alone so early?”
“Dad is cooking in the kitchen. I have chicken wings today.” Kidney Bean seemed to be a little more energetic when he mentioned the chicken wings, and his big eyes flickered, almost shining.
Han Jiang couldn’t help but laughed, put down the little guy, and walked around to the kitchen with a bag of fresh bamboo shoots.
“Jin…”
Han Jiang’s words reached his lips but he swallowed abruptly. Yun Jinshu turned his sleeves back to him, with the phone between his neck and shoulders, whispering something.
“Well, in a moment, I have to send my child to kindergarten.”
“No, no, no, I’ll pick you up, how can I make you a girl wait for me.”
“Um… well, then… goodbye.”
Yun Jinshu buttoned the phone and let out a long sigh of relief. The expression on his face was very uncomfortable, even a slight red color was emitted because of tension.
He put the phone aside and was about to continue cutting vegetables, but a voice suddenly came from behind him.
“Jin Shu, are you calling?”
Han Jiang stood not far from him, leaning on the door frame and looking at him, with a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, but his face was not very good.
Yunjinshu was like being suddenly grasped by someone, feeling a little nervous for a moment, and then he was relieved, and continued to lower his head and chop vegetables with a “um”.
“Your friend?” Han Jiang walked over and looked at him shiningly from the side.
The hand of Yunjinshu chopping vegetables paused, his face was a little ugly, but finally nodded, “Well, a friend.”
Han Jiang heard it very clearly just now. The voice of a girl was clearly on the other end of the phone. He felt a little suffocated, as if he was suddenly screwed, but he twitched the corners of his mouth soon.
What are you doing? Yunjinshu is a person, and of course he can have his own social circle. This is just a phone call. What is he thinking about writing?
Depressing his discomfort, Han Jiang opened the plastic bag in his hand and put it in the sink and said, “I saw you bought a cookbook that day, and stared at the stewed fresh bamboo shoots dish for a long time, thinking that you should like it very much. After eating, I bought a few of them and brought them to you. I am not very good at picking them. Can you see if this is good?”
The hand of Yunjinshu chopping vegetables paused, and was surprised when he looked at the bamboo shoots in the plastic bag, “This is hard to buy in this town. Where did you buy it?”
Han Jiang smiled, “I took the bus into the city. I thought I couldn’t find it. But I happened to meet an old farmer. I bought some from him because I didn’t know how to pick it. Dare to buy more. If you like it, I will buy you some more next time.”
Yunjinshu’s heart curled up, and he was speechless for a while.
It takes two hours to walk into the city from here to get the bus, and it takes an hour to get on the bus to run into the market. He can’t imagine that someone with Han Jiang’s identity would actually buy a few unremarkable ones. Bamboo shoots have gone so far.
After a long time, Yunjinshu bowed his eyelashes and thanked him, “The stuff is very good, thank you, and I will give you the money for how much you spent.”
Han Jiang’s face was a little stiff, but he still smiled, “Things are worthless, I have learned to bargain, but if you really don’t want to accept what I buy, just save it, save it to the whole number and give it to me.”
No one knows the meaning behind the four words “bargaining” better than Yunjinshu.
Once two people went to the market to buy vegetables together. This person didn’t even understand what ten yuan and three catties meant. He had lived in a high place since he was a child, but now he is so complacent in this ravine. What is the point?
He almost closed his eyes and could imagine Han Jiang bargaining with the old farmers for a few dollars. To be honest, he felt very uncomfortable.
Yunjinshu didn’t refuse Han Jiang’s things anymore. After putting the plastic bag aside, he continued to chop vegetables, “I will accept the things. You can go out first. You can eat in a while.”
Han Jiang’s originally contracted heart suddenly seemed to be relieved for a moment. Although Yun Jinshu’s words did not say clearly, the meaning of leaving him for breakfast was so obvious that he was strained by the weird phone call. The nerves are also relaxed.
Raising his hand to hug him, he finally retracted his arm in a jealousy, grabbed his hair and walked out of the kitchen.
The breakfast time is undoubtedly beautiful and warm. Although the relationship between Han Jiang and Yunjinshu is still not salty and not weak, Kidney Dou did not pay attention to this. Like a tireless bird, he kept chirping and talking non-stop.
After a while, I picked a piece of chicken in the Yunjin book bowl, and then I drank a sip of milk from Han Jiang’s cup. The mouth was surrounded by milk, and my little hand was still holding two chicken wings.
While Han Jiang was going to the kitchen to wash the dishes, Yun Jinshu touched his son’s head and asked him softly, “Bean, you tell Dad, do you want to live with three people?”
Kidney Bean blinked his eyes and nodded vigorously, “Yes.”
Bean has been thinking about it for a long time with his father and uncle.
Yun Jinshu’s expression became a little strange, and she continued to ask him, “Then if Dad finds you a mother, will you be happy?”
Kidney Dou’s eyes widened, and she stopped gnawing on chicken wings excitedly, “Hmm, Douzi wanted to call her mother a long time ago!”
Uncle loves Bean so much, he must be Bean’s mother.
The son’s words were undoubtedly a big blow to Yun Jinshu. He lowered his head and fiddled with his mobile phone. He looked at it repeatedly for a long time before he smiled at his son, “After waiting for today, Dad will find you a mother.”
Kidney Dou nodded happily, but Yun Jinshu was in a daze, until Han Jiang wiped his hands and walked out, he didn’t recover.
He rubbed his hair with a smile, “Hey, what kind of surprise is it?”
Yunjinshu recovered, and shook his head perfunctorily, “It’s okay, I sent kidney beans to kindergarten, so you can go.”
Han Jiang nodded, and then asked tentatively, “I will pick you up from get off work today, right?”
Yunjinshu’s face was particularly weird, as if something was on his mind, and he said vaguely, “No, I have something to do today.”
“It’s okay to be late, I can…”
Yun Jinshu interrupted him, “It’s really not necessary. Kidney Bean is going to be late. I’ll leave first. I’ll talk about anything later.”
Speaking, he put on his clothes in a hurry, took the kidney beans and went out, and didn’t even notice when he dropped the phone.
It didn’t look like going to work, but as if trying to hide something and fled away, leaving only Han Jiang standing at the door thinking.
——
Han Jiang always felt that Yun Jinshu was hiding something from him, but he had no position to follow up. It would be too cautious to question Yun Jinshu casually just because of the phone call that he overheard in the morning.
Although he understood that it would take time for Yun Jinshu to accept himself again, and during this period, he couldn’t put so much pressure on him, but it seemed like a pile of weeds grew in his head, forcing him to keep thinking.
If Yunjinshu really didn’t give him the slightest chance, he would turn around and find someone else, he would not have any status or status to be responsible for him.
What’s more… If this person is still a woman, he is even less sure of winning. After all, compared with the life of a normal person, who wants to be a homosexual for a lifetime and be spurned by the whole society?
Thinking of this, Han Jiang’s heart is getting more and more confused. No matter what he did before, he was able to be clean and tidy, absolutely not procrastinating, but in front of love, he was like a fool who couldn’t find a way, he could only bite the bullet and run rampant. Even with a broken head, he can’t turn his head back.
He drew out a whole box of cigarettes, his throat was sore, the water stopped in the room again, his mouth was dry and his heart was distressed, he simply took his wallet and went downstairs, but he did not expect to meet Aunt Li who was back from buying vegetables.
Aunt Li greeted him enthusiastically when he saw him from a distance, and greeted him with a smile, “Oh, isn’t this Xiaojin’s cousin? Are you accustomed to living in the house? If you have any requirements, remember to tell the auntie.”
Han Jiang nodded politely, “The house is very comfortable, I like it very much, thank you.”
“Oh, what are you polite? You are Xiaojin’s relative, that is, my relative. In the future, maybe everyone will be a family, hahaha…”
Aunt Li smiled heartily, her small eyes were covered by the chubby flesh on her face.
Han Jiang was stunned for a moment, and asked subconsciously, “Aunt Li, what did you mean by saying ‘we will be a family now’?”
“Huh? You don’t know?” Aunt Li opened her eyes in surprise, and then said with a smile, “Today Xiaojin went on a blind date with my niece. Your cousin is shy, hahaha, I gave He was not tempted to introduce so many girls, but he actually agreed to meet this time. It must have been the two of them who had contacted privately. Xiao Jin was tempted, hahaha…”
Han Jiang’s face became pale with a brush, and the sore throat became worse. He calmed his mind and squeezed out a smile and said, “Well, my cousin has a strict tone, and even I was kept in the dark. Do you know where they met?”
Aunt Li smiled beamingly. She didn’t even notice Han Jiang’s deep eyes. She pointed to the guide along the road and said, “It’s the best Peace Hotel on the top of the mountain. Yesterday, when my niece told me about it, I personally It’s a deal. I really like Xiaojin and Douzi. I hope my daughter can be better. Such a good guy can’t miss it, don’t you think?”
Han Jiang could not hear anything at this time, and his heart was choked. He casually dealt with a few sentences and turned to the direction of the Peace Hotel. Aunt Li yelled from behind, “You have to come on, boy, my brother has children. , You have to quickly find a wife!”
Han Jiang didn’t turn his head, he ridiculed the corners of his mouth a little, isn’t I just going to chase my wife?
Along the way, his head was messed up badly, and the speed under his feet was getting faster and faster. There was no bus in the town, so he could only run over, but his mobile phone suddenly rang halfway.
damn it!
Han Jiang cursed, a layer of sweat appeared on his anxious forehead, who was calling at this time!
“Hey?”
He gasped and picked up the phone, but an anxious voice came from the other end, “Hello, are you Kiddou’s uncle?” I’m a kindergarten teacher, we met, and I called the child’s father. There is always no one to answer, so I can only find you. Can you come to the county hospital right away? “
Han Jiang paused abruptly, and jumped a few times uneasy, “What happened to Kiddou?”
“Kidney Bean had a fight with some kindergarten children, and they were injured. I’m sorry, we’re sorry… I didn’t expect things to turn out like this…”
The kindergarten teacher couldn’t help apologizing guiltily, but Han Jiang could not hear clearly. He was in a mess now, with Yunjinshu on one side and Kidney Bean, and he didn’t know how to choose.
Finally he took a deep breath, turned and ran in the opposite direction.
Jin Shu might be able to recover it, but Kid Dou did not allow him to hesitate.
Finally rushed to the county hospital. Several injured children were still bandaging their wounds in the emergency room. Han Jiang ran out of breath. He asked the kindergarten teacher who was standing next to him with fear and said, “What the **** is going on? How is the child? Up?”
The kindergarten teacher was just a female student who had just graduated from university. She could not escape the blame for her child being injured. At this time, she was already scared to cry. “I don’t know very well. When other children asked me to go, the kidney bean was already There was a fight with other children. It is said that he did the first thing. Before I came to remember to ask the reason, I sent them all to the hospital.”
There was a mess in Han Jiang’s head, he scratched his hair hard, and he didn’t want to be a teacher anymore, but he was very puzzled in his heart. Kidney Bean has always been good and sensible, and he is definitely not a troublesome child. How could he hit his friends first? ?
At this moment, a doctor hurriedly ran out of the emergency room, swept around and said, “Has the parent of the kid named Kidney come here?”
Han Jiang walked over quickly, “I am, where did the child hurt? Is it serious?”
The doctor took off his mask and said, “The little guy’s arm is broken with stitches. It’s okay if the injury is severe and a blood transfusion, but his blood type is too special. There is no RH negative blood in our county hospital. Now it’s a bit troublesome. Since you are his parent, go take a blood test.”
Something flashed across Han Jiang’s head, and he didn’t respond when he was fast. “Doctor, no need to test, I am RH negative blood. I have done matching with this child before, so you can just draw mine. “
It took blood and stitches again, and it took more than two hours to finish.
The kindergarten teacher took a few other children who were not seriously injured and went home first, and Han Jiang stayed in the hospital to accompany kidney beans.
There were four stitches stitched on the arm of the little guy, a small face with white face, teardrops still hanging from the corners of his eyes, sitting on the bed pitifully, his short legs hanging in the air, and he kept his head down and said nothing in grievances.
Han Jiang sighed, sat next to him and patted his head and said, “Bean, tell uncle what the **** is wrong with you? Why do you want to beat the kids?”
“They are all bad guys!” He was a little excited when he mentioned this kidney bean, and his eyes were still red.
“Well, why are they bad guys? Isn’t Douzi a very good boy? Usually he is so good by his father and uncle, and he will give the little bunny to his father. What happened today, eh?”
Han Jiang gently squeezed the little guy’s face, and asked very patiently.
Kidney Bean didn’t speak at first, and after a while, he suddenly sobbed. Little teardrops smashed down. He raised his hand and wiped the tears, making a bun face blurred.
“They scolded me for having a father and no mother, and they said that only bad children were thrown away by my mother. Douzi is not a bad child, and Douzi has a mother too!”
The little guy said more and more sad, and finally cried loudly, “I told them that I have a mother. They don’t believe that I have to call my mother to kindergarten, but my father said that there will be a mother today. Douzi can’t help it. Call mom, they laugh at me and throw me toys at me, oooooooo…”
Han Jiang was a little bit sad, holding Kid Bean’s small body in his arms, and constantly stroking his choking back, suddenly understood Yun Jinshu’s idea of agreeing to meet that woman today.
Poor parents in the world, Yun Jinshu is unwilling to accept him, nor does he want the child to grow up in the deformed world of two men, so he would rather find a woman, at least this will make the child live happily.
After thinking about this level, Han Jiang felt very uncomfortable, and could no longer find a reason to blame Yunjinshu. After comforting the kidney beans and falling asleep, he walked out of the ward and was pacing in the corridor, but his head was spinning at high speed.
Regarding the life experience of Kidney Bean, he always feels weird everywhere. Although Yun Jinshu said that he adopted the child in Vancouver, he has to make him doubt the stringing of all the current things together.
First of all, it is very new to be able to adopt a pure-blooded Chinese child in a foreign country. In addition, this child looks so similar to the Yunjinshu, almost carved out of a mold, and this chance is even rarer. less.
In the past, all his focus was on Yunjinshu, ignoring the identity of kidney beans. At this time, he once again remembered his rare blood type that exactly matches kidney beans. It was a joke that the doctor said that the child was his illegitimate child during the fire last time. Can’t think about the problem rationally.
Stringing up all the clues, the answer seems to all point to one, but this so-called answer is like looking at a flower in the fog, knowing that it is there, but can’t see it or touch it, making it irritating and restless.
After a long time, Han Jiang threw an unlit cigarette into the trash can, took out a long-unused SIM card from the inner pocket of his jacket and inserted it into the phone, and dialed the one he hadn’t contacted for more than one and a half years. number.
“Hey, Aze, check one thing for me.”
