It's hard to be a stepmother, my disabled husband takes care of my child
Chapter 20 Hurry up and praise me!
Su Man rubbed Xiao Bao's head. His hair was a little dry and prickly, but she couldn't let it go.
"Yes, I'm back. I promised you that I would come back no matter how late it is. I will definitely not lie to you. But you, why did you run out and not stay at home? I told you to stay at home. What if you get frozen in this cold weather?"
She looked at Dabao again and found that the child still had an awkward, arrogant look on his face and was silent.
After knowing what Dabao was like, she was neither angry nor sad. Instead, she smiled at Dabao to comfort him.
It was Dabao's awkward personality that made him turn his head away and not look at Su Man.
"We...we are..." Xiaobao hesitated and didn't know what to say.
It was Aunt Mei who spoke out cheerfully.
"These two kids just can't bear to leave you alone! They are worried about you, so they ran out to the village entrance to wait for you. I just gave you the clothes and then I knew what happened today. You said you were going to collect firewood, but you ended up carrying a wild boar down the mountain. Are you trying to scare people to death? What if something really goes wrong?"
Su Man pretended to be stupid and smiled, and said,
"It's okay, I'm just lucky. Look, I'm fine now, right? And you've been waiting for me for so long at the entrance of the village with the two children. It must have been hard work for you."
"It's okay, it's all done easily. We didn't have to wait long. The clothes are all at your house. You should go home quickly. It's getting cold now. You can warm up when you get home. Hurry up."
Aunt Mei said happily, Su Man also smiled, and then handed a bag of biscuits to Aunt Mei.
"Aunt Mei, these are the snacks I bought. You know I made some money from selling a wild boar today. You have helped me so much. If you don't accept these snacks, I will be angry. We will not have any contact in the future. I don't need your help.
If you really regard me as one of your own in the village, then accept me. Don't argue with me here in this cold weather. I will go back with my two children first."
After she said this and left the snacks, she took her two children and went straight home.
Aunt Mei really didn't want to accept it at first, but after listening to Su Man's words, she accepted it.
At worst, I can pay it back slowly from other places later. If Su Man is willing to live a good life and there is no elderly person in the family, she will be able to help more or less in the future.
The two brothers Dafu and Dagui were also at a loss as to what to do with the snacks. It was the first time in their lives that someone had given them snacks like this.
Especially after what Su Man said just now, they really didn't know what to do for a moment. After all, they were two old men and didn't quite understand these things.
"Aunt, we..." Dafu glanced at Aunt Mei.
They have a good relationship with Aunt Mei. After all, they live in the same village. Aunt Mei is a nice person and has a good relationship with the villagers, so it is okay to ask Aunt Mei's opinion.
Aunt Mei smiled helplessly at the two of them and said,
"Okay, okay, accept them all. Since the Fu family said so, we have no choice but to accept them. We are all villagers. If there is anything we can help with in the future, just help once. Let's go back. It's getting late. Go back and have a good rest."
Dafu hesitated for a moment and then nodded.
Aunt Mei was about to leave with a smile on her face, but was called by Dagui.
"Auntie, do you still have firewood at home? Do you want me to chop some more for you?"
"No, no." Aunt Mei said cheerfully, "We have enough firewood at home to get through the winter, so there's no need to look for more. But you two brothers, it's cold now, and there's still more than a month before the New Year, so don't go up the mountain easily, just brave the winter.
By the way, I met matchmaker Li from the next village a few days ago, and I asked her to help you find a suitable girl, so don’t go to the mountains casually during this period, otherwise I won’t be able to find you. "
Aunt May said this and left happily, not noticing the emotions of the two brothers behind her.
Dafu was fine, he just prepared to drive the ox cart back home.
But Dagui's face looked a little bad, and he looked absent-minded.
Su Man took the two children back home. As soon as she entered the house, she immediately took the two children to the room, for fear that the two children would be frozen.
"Hurry up, hurry up, go to bed and curl up. Look at your little faces, they're all white from the cold."
She first carried the younger child to bed, and then carried the older child.
Dabao didn't pay attention for a moment and let Su Man succeed.
"What are you doing! Who told you to hug me?" Xiaobao's face turned red, and it was unclear whether he was angry or embarrassed.
Su Man looked at his rosy and tender face and liked him very much.
"Of course I have to hold you to bed and keep you warm. If you don't warm up in such a cold day, something will go wrong. As your stepmother, I feel bad when I see you so cold." Su Man said with a smile.
Xiaobao was very happy, he especially liked to be close to his stepmother now. They were indeed a little worried today because they hadn't seen their stepmother come back, they were worried that she really didn't want them anymore.
Now that he finally sees his stepmother come back, he is so happy that he can’t contain himself.
"Stepmother, you're really back! We were so worried about you, but we're not cold at all. As long as you can come back, we won't be cold at all, hehe..."
Xiaobao's legs were dangling by the bed. Su Man put everything down and put the blanket over the child.
"All covered, mom bought you some snacks, eat some first, and then mom will make you something delicious later, mom bought a lot of things."
Dabao still turned a face and said nothing, but Xiaobao was very happy.
"Stepmother, you are so nice!"
Xiao Bao has now been completely conquered by Su Man, and his heart and eyes are full of Su Man.
He had thought about this before his stepmother left, that as long as she came back from selling the wild boar, he would be nice to her, he would definitely be nice to her!
Now his stepmother not only came back but also brought them snacks. It must be because she likes them and really wants to treat them well. How could he not be happy!
Su Man was taking out the snacks when she suddenly heard Xiao Bao say this and paused.
She looked at the two children, and thought of their cold faces just now. She felt so distressed that she was completely soft.
How insecure are these two children? How could he be so reluctant to leave her in just two days?
"Believe in me. No matter where I go, I will always come home and will never abandon you. I said I will be your mother forever. I promise. I swear. OK?"
Xiaobao nodded vigorously, and Dabao just glanced at her.
"Okay, have some snacks, eat quickly, I'll clean up first. By the way, where are the winter clothes that Grandma Mei made for you? Have you tried them on? Do they fit you well?"
"It's in Daddy's room. We didn't try it." Xiaobao answered obediently.
Su Man put the snack in Dabao's hand and said,
"Dabao, take it and share it with your brother."
Dabao didn't refuse, and Xiaobao took a piece and put it near Su Man's mouth first.
Because Su Man was bending over, Xiao Bao could easily pass the pastry to her mouth.
"Stepmother, you eat first. My brother and I can eat after you finish." Xiaobao's eyes were sparkling and his face was slightly red. He looked very shy.
Su Man was stunned for a moment, and felt warm in her heart.
"Thank you, Xiaobao. This is the most delicious snack I have ever eaten. It is the sweetest. I will remember this taste for the rest of my life."
Su Man didn't refuse, she just opened her mouth and took a bite. She was in a good mood now, because Xiao Bao's action was to show his concern for her, which meant that he was slowly accepting her.
Xiaobao was very happy. He didn't expect that his stepmother would be so happy and like the cakes he handed to her so much.
"Okay, okay, hurry up and eat. I'll tidy up."
After Su Man finished speaking, she did not go to look at the two children again, but turned around to organize the things she brought back.
The two children tried a piece of cake tentatively. They hadn't eaten cake since their father fell into a coma, and they missed the fragrant and soft cake very much.
Although the food their stepmother gave them was delicious, they now wanted to eat these cakes as well.
After taking a bite, Dabao looked at Su Man and felt a little warm in his heart.
This bad woman is actually quite nice, and seems to have really changed for the better. Not only does she not beat or scold them anymore, but she also buys them food and even has people make clothes for them.
He pursed his lips and took another bite of the dessert.
Xiao Bao's eyes were always on Su Man, and he never left her. When he saw Su Man take out a few packets of medicine, he sniffed hard and asked immediately,
"Stepmother! Did you buy medicine? Did you buy medicine for Daddy?"
His voice was so excited that he jumped directly off the bed. Su Man was also shocked when she noticed it.
"Xiaobao, be careful! It will be terrible if you fall!"
"Stepmother, don't worry, I'm fine. Tell me quickly if you have bought medicine for daddy! Can daddy be cured?" Xiaobao asked excitedly.
After hearing what Xiaobao said, Dabao immediately got off the bed. Although he didn't say anything, he looked at Su Man with expectation.
What the two children want to see most right now is for their daddy to wake up. As long as their daddy wakes up, they will be fine.
Su Man looked up at the two expectant children, her eyes softened, and said,
"Yes, these medicines are for your father's treatment, but you can't be impatient about treating your father. You have to take your time, so you can't be impatient, understand? And mother is just trying it on your father now, and we don't know if it can be cured, so you can't have too high expectations, understand?"
She didn't want to put it so bluntly, but although the child was young, she felt that things that should be known and taught should be told as early as possible. Children can be loved but not spoiled.
Neither of the two children was ignorant and disobedient, so they nodded obediently.
"Don't worry, stepmother. My brother and I know what's going on. We won't do anything rash. As long as Dad gets better, that's all."
Su Man smiled at him, then took out the clothes and shoes he bought and showed them to the two children.
The two children were stunned when they saw these things.
"Stepmother...stepmother, are all these things here for us?" Xiaobao asked stupidly.
"Yes." Su Man smiled, "These are the underwear I bought for you. I'll give you the shoes and socks later. Please sit down and I'll try on your shoes to see if they fit you."
As she spoke, she squatted down and put the shoes on Xiaobao's feet and found that they fit well.
Finally, she started to put shoes on Dabao. She looked at Dabao before putting shoes on him, for fear that he would resist.
But Dabao just looked dazed and showed no resistance.
Su Man raised the corner of her mouth, and then tried the shoes on Dabao. As expected, they fit well. There was still some space left, and it would be just right as long as he put on socks when the time comes.
"Well, it turns out that your mother's hands are still very powerful. I just measured when I gave you a bath and bought the right things. Go and praise your mother!"
She stood up and put her hands on her hips and looked at the two children, looking like she was begging for praise.
But the two children just looked at her with red eyes without saying a word.
Or perhaps the two children were still immersed in the fact that Su Man squatted down and tried on shoes for them personally and had not come back to their senses.
Their stepmother actually squatted down to try on shoes for them, which was something they had never thought of.
The smile on Su Man's face froze, and she felt a little helpless looking at the two children like this.
"What's wrong with you? Is it that your shoes don't fit? Or do you just not like this kind of shoes?"
In the past, she had little or no contact with adults of her age.
Not to mention children, she has seen quite a few of them in novels and on TV, but she has never come into contact with them in person, so she still doesn't know how to deal with the two children.
"Thank you." It was Dabao who spoke first.
Su Man was really stunned this time. She even bent down and asked Dabao in disbelief.
"Dabao, what did you say just now? I didn't hear it clearly. Can you please say it again? I want to hear it again, okay?"
Originally, Su Man thought that after she said that, given Dabao's personality, he would definitely be uncomfortable and unwilling to talk anymore.
But what he didn't expect was that Dabao actually looked at her and said something seriously again.
"I said thank you very much. I was wrong to doubt that you were not a good person before, but now I find that you are really a good person, so thank you very much."
Although he is young, he speaks very clearly.
Su Man was stunned at first, then she gently rubbed Dabao's head.
Dabao's body stiffened for a moment, but he didn't dodge.
"Stepmother! Thank you! Wuwuwuwu... You are so nice! Thank you! Wuwuwuwu... We shouldn't have suspected you of being bad."
Xiaobao expresses his emotions much more strongly than Dabao, so he almost cried.
Su Man felt warm inside, and her heart was so soft that she said to the two children,
"It's normal for you to doubt me because I did do something wrong in the past."
