Parental Love: Jiang Weimin's Life of Lying Down

The school bell rang, and students walked out of the campus one after another. Jiang Yafei and Jiang Yaning walked side by side, walking briskly towards home. Suddenly, they heard shouting from behind.

"Sister Yafei, wait for me..."

Jiang Yafei turned her head curiously and saw a little girl running towards her breathlessly. She recognized the girl as a classmate of Jiang Yaning, named Sun Shuhua.

"What's the matter? Shuhua, what happened?" Jiang Yafei asked with concern.

Sun Shuhua said breathlessly: "Sister Yafei, I searched for a long time before I found a picture book. Can you ask Jiang Weimin to draw a family portrait for me? I will add it when I find the picture book later?" As she spoke, she handed the picture book in her hand to Jiang Yafei, her eyes full of anticipation.

Jiang Yafei took the comic book and looked at Sun Shuhua, who looked so pitiful that she made people feel pity for her. Jiang Yafei knew that Sun Shuhua was a family member of a martyr and her father had died.

Thinking of her father's usual teachings to the children of martyrs, Jiang Yafei felt a sense of responsibility. "Of course, Shuhua, don't worry! I will tell Jiang Weimin and ask him to draw it for you as soon as possible."

After hearing this, Sun Shuhua's eyes sparkled with tears of gratitude. She thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you, sister Yafei. It's really troublesome for you. I have always wanted to have a family photo that belongs to our whole family. Finally, I have the opportunity to realize it."

"Sister Yafei, but my father is gone. Can I still draw it?"

Jiang Yafei smiled and comforted her: "No problem, as long as you have a photo of your father, it's a small matter. However, painting takes some time, you go back and wait patiently. I will tell you the specific arrangements when you go to school tomorrow."

"Okay, Sister Yafei. Then I will go home and wait for news! Thank you so much!" After saying that, she waved to Jiang Yafei and left happily.

Jiang Yafei felt a little happy watching Sun Shuhua leave. She felt that it was very meaningful to help others, especially the children of martyrs like Sun Shuhua.

As soon as Jiang Yafei returned home, she saw Jiang Weimin sitting leisurely on the roof reading a picture book.

"Jiang Weimin, you seem to be very relaxed!"

Hearing Jiang Yafei's voice, Jiang Weimin raised his head and said with a smile: "Of course, I am so relaxed now because you are not working hard enough! Recently, fewer and fewer people ask me to paint for them."

"Jiang Weimin, you are really the first to complain! It was obviously you who increased the difficulty of changing paintings, making it impossible for everyone to change paintings, and you still blame me." As she said that, she also climbed onto the roof.

Jiang Weimin raised the corner of his mouth and chuckled, "Difficulty is motivation, otherwise when will I be able to collect all the comic books?"

"You are exploiting the masses for your own selfish desires," Jiang Yafei said angrily.

"We are just getting what we need from each other, so please don't make false accusations against me." Jiang Weimin replied indifferently.

Seeing Jiang Weimin so comfortable, Jiang Yafei felt a little unbalanced and threw a picture book into Jiang Weimin's arms in an unpleasant manner.

"Look, this picture book was given to me by Sun Shuhua, who asked me to help draw a family portrait. She is the daughter of a martyr! Her father had already died, so she brought a copy over, and I agreed to draw it for her."

Hearing this, Jiang Weimin's face turned serious: "Children of martyrs should indeed be taken care of. How about this, when you get to school tomorrow, you tell Sun Shuhua that we will go to her home to draw pictures for her in the evening and return this picture book to her. Moreover, from now on, any children of martyrs who ask us to draw family portraits will be free of charge!"

Jiang Yafei smiled when she heard this: "Okay, Jiang Weimin, you are becoming more and more manly!"

Jiang Weimin smiled proudly: "Hehe, of course. But, instead of praising me like this, you might as well just call me brother, that would make me feel more comfortable!"

"Jiang Weimin, you want to be beaten? How dare you bring it up?" Jiang Yafei was furious when she heard this and raised her hand to hit Jiang Weimin. Seeing that the situation was not good, Jiang Weimin quickly reached out to stop her: "Hey, hey, hey, stop it, let's talk it out."

Seeing Jiang Yafei staring at him, as if she was unwilling to give up, he suddenly had an idea and decided to divert the trouble to someone else. He pointed to the distance and said, "Jiang Yafei, look, Wang Haiyang is here."

Jiang Yafei looked in the direction of his finger and saw Wang Haiyang walking out of the house with a book in his hand. The anger on her face instantly dissipated and she smiled.

"Brother Haiyang, where are you going?" Jiang Weimin hurriedly greeted him.

Wang Haiyang heard the sound and looked up. It turned out that Jiang Yafei and Jiang Weimin were standing there. He smiled and replied, "Oh, I was going to go out for a walk. I heard Jiang Yafei was going to hit someone again. How can Jiang Yafei still be so powerful?"

As soon as Wang Haiyang saw Jiang Yafei, he couldn't help teasing her. But he seemed to have forgotten his previous lesson and always liked to provoke her, which often ended up causing him trouble.

"I want you to take care"

"I'm just reminding you to be more ladylike."

Jiang Yafei was furious when she heard this: "Hmph, don't try that! You are lazy and ignorant, you do nothing all day long, you just idle around, and you pretend to be an intellectual, and you still have the nerve to criticize me?"

After saying that, she glared at him angrily, "Jiang Yafei, if you weren't a girl, I would have beaten you a long time ago!" Wang Haiyang was a little angry at Jiang Yafei's retort.

"Hey, why don't you try it? It's still unclear who will beat whom between us!" Jiang Yafei raised her chin provocatively, put her hands on her hips, and put on an attitude of being fearless.

Wang Haiyang was so angry that his face turned red. He turned and rushed into the house, slamming the door shut, shaking the whole house slightly. Jiang Yafei laughed triumphantly: "Haha..."

Jiang Weimin stared at the scene with eyes wide open in disbelief, muttering to himself: "Jiang Yafei, you are so amazing. Wang Haiyang was speechless because of what you said. He was so angry that he almost ran into the room. And every time you two quarrel, you win. You are his nemesis!"

Jiang Yafei raised the corners of her mouth and revealed a sly smile, "Of course!" Her face was filled with confidence and pride, as if she had just won a great victory.

Then, Jiang Yafei clapped her hands and said to Jiang Weimin, "Let's go downstairs. I want to share this with Yaning." After that, she ran downstairs happily.

Jiang Weimin secretly congratulated himself on his wit, otherwise he would be in trouble again. In this way, Jiang Yafei's task of calling him brother is really a long way to go.

During dinner, the family sat around the table eating. Jiang Yafei suddenly put down her bowl and chopsticks and looked at everyone excitedly: "Mom and Dad, Jiang Weimin and I have decided to do something big!"

Hearing this, Jiang Dehua on the side couldn't help but curl his lips and said in disbelief: "What big things can you two accomplish?"

"Jiang Weimin plans to paint family portraits for the martyrs' families on the island for free, and I will be responsible for the publicity!" Jiang Yafei puffed out her chest proudly.

Jiang Defu smiled with satisfaction after hearing this: "This is a great thing! The children of the martyrs need us to care for them. You are doing the right thing and deserve praise!"

An Jie also nodded in agreement: "Yes, you have done a great job. Your father loves the children of these martyrs the most. If you can help, you must do your best. If you don't have enough money, you can tell me."

"I know, Mom. I will try my best to make the painting the best it can be!"

Seeing this, Jiang Dehua said with a smile: "Weimin, just tell your aunt what you want to eat. I will make you something delicious tomorrow as a reward for you!"

"Thank you, Auntie. Yaning, what do you want to eat? Tell me now. I'll give you the right."

"Aunt, I want to eat sea urchin steamed egg."

"Okay, I'll go to the beach tomorrow to pick some for you, and then make some more. Your Uncle Ding also likes to eat them. Last time Yaning brought them over, your Uncle Ding kept saying they were delicious. And he also likes the four things."

"Huh." Jiang Defu's face was full of dissatisfaction after hearing this.

"Who are you humming at, brother?"

"Of course I'm spitting at you. Your elbows are always sticking out."

"Brother, how can you say that about your old comrade? Besides, my sister-in-law Xiu'e is gone now, so what's wrong with me helping to take care of her?"

"Okay, you are right no matter what I say, let's eat quickly," Jiang Defu said speechlessly.
