Quick Wear: Cousin, Come to the Bowl Quickly

He Yanyang used to be not like he is now, where people would shake their heads and sigh when his name was mentioned.

At that time, he had a father who was a policeman and a mother who was a teacher. In the eyes of outsiders, the family of three was not rich, but warm and harmonious. Well, at least that's what it looked like on the surface.

In fact, Mr. He, a criminal policeman, seldom goes home because he has been fighting on the front line all year round. And Ms. He, a backbone teacher and class teacher, puts all her energy on her students and thus neglects the teaching of her son.

Fortunately, He Yanyang was born a carefree child. He spent the whole day playing with cats and dogs, jumping around, and had no time to feel sad because of his parents' neglect. He also had his father and mother, Lin, who lived in the same unit, taking care of him all the time. Therefore, apart from being a little naughty on weekdays, he could be regarded as a thriving sapling of the motherland.

It was not until his second year in junior high school that He's father was injured in the line of duty and had to recuperate at home for a while, and He's mother was forced to suspend her work for half a year due to complaints from students' parents.

The family of three, who only got together a few times throughout the year, suddenly gathered together.

As the saying goes, things smell better when they are far away than when they are near. After being together for a long time, and knowing that both of them are at the lowest point in their lives, the conflicts that He's parents had originally hidden due to their lack of time together gradually emerged as they spent more time together.

One complained to the other that he had been staying at home for no more than two months over the years, and was only focused on work and never cared about his family. Now he is lying at home and needs his wife and son to serve him.

One accused the other of being too controlling, and that everything from buying a house and having children to daily necessities such as food, clothing, housing and transportation must be arranged by her. She was very devoted to her students, but ignored her own son.

At first, there were only occasional disputes, but later they gradually turned into mutual attacks and verbal abuse, and there were even several times when they almost came to blows.

Later, their anger suddenly shifted to He Yanyang.

In particular, He's mother, who had taught countless outstanding students, looked back at her son who was lazy, unmotivated, and had a lot of bad habits. She seemed to have found an outlet for her anger. She began to dislike He Yanyang more and more. After criticizing him severely, she began to completely control his life.

What to eat, what to wear, who to associate with, from big things like how many points to get on the exam to small things like what time to go home every day, everything must be strictly followed according to her arrangements, otherwise she will be criticized and even abused.

But thirteen or fourteen years old is a rebellious age, and He Yanyang has been used to being raised freely since childhood, so how could he stand these strict and harsh requirements? Therefore, the He family is in chaos almost every day.

But if things only go this far, it is not irreversible. After all, when a family gets along, how can everything go smoothly? There is always a need to get along with each other.

But one day a few months later, He's mother's affair was finally investigated clearly. The school not only reinstated her position, but also gave her extra subsidies to appease her.

Mother He, who had been suppressed for a long time, finally felt proud. On the day of her reinstatement, she smiled for a rare time, cooked herself, and prepared a large table of sumptuous meals.

But at the dinner table, she was a little too happy after drinking, and inevitably developed the occupational disease of being a know-it-all, and criticized her son and husband in every way.

Suddenly, she brought up an old matter again, bringing up the past when she and He Yanyang were almost retaliated by criminals because of He's father.

Lin Xi had no idea how fiercely the two quarreled that day. She only knew that when she and Lin's father and mother heard the sound of things being thrown and bowls being smashed upstairs and rushed upstairs, the house was already a mess.

Mother He's beautiful floral dress was stained with food, and her hair was a little messy, while Father He was standing among a pile of broken bowls and plates, leaning on a cane with a grim face, his chest heaving violently.

As for He Yanyang, he seemed to have become accustomed to such scenes. He stood in the corner of the living room with an indifferent expression. The shocking red blood on his forehead flowed down his cheek and silently blended into the mess on the floor.

Mother He slammed the door and left, Father He packed up his things in silence and then returned to the team. As for He Yanyang, Father and Mother Lin took him back home to treat his wounds.

The family of three met again in the hospital morgue.

He's father's apprentice told the mother and son with red eyes that he was originally supposed to go on this mission, but when He's father knew that he had already made an appointment with his wife to celebrate his birthday with her, he took the initiative to take his place.

I thought it was just an ordinary tracking investigation, but I never thought that the fugitive criminal had a gun. He was shot dead in the heart. Mr. He didn't even have time to leave a last word before he closed his eyes forever.

"I knew that Master's leg injury had just healed, and I was reluctant at first, but he said, 'Spend more time with your family while you are young. Don't be like me, who realized that I was sorry for my wife and children when I reached middle age.'"

"I don't know why I was bewitched and agreed to it at that time. I should have been the one lying here..." The young police officer cried with red eyes, his face full of pain and regret.

Yu Minghui, who was standing beside him and originally looking at the figure covered with white cloth in front of her with a dazed look, seemed to have not reacted for a moment. When she heard these words, her body trembled violently, and she let out a suppressed whimper from her throat and rushed towards the hospital bed.

From that day on, Yu Minghui, who had always been proud and arrogant, suddenly seemed to have lost her spirit. She was absent-minded and confused the whole day, and almost lost her teaching job that she had finally resumed.

Fortunately, her mother Lin, who had always had a good relationship with her, was always by her side, and she was able to cheer herself up by thinking of the young He Yanyang.

However, although she had removed all the thorns, in He Yanyang's eyes, if it were not for the quarrel that He's mother had initiated that night, He's father would not have returned to the team early, and he would not have gone on the mission for his apprentice out of guilt, and then died tragically.

Therefore, the death of He's father became a thorn between the two of them. Although He's mother wanted to make amends, the already cold relationship between mother and son became more and more estranged.

Thinking of this, Lin Xi couldn't help but sigh deeply. She was not the person involved, nor could she be a rational person. She also didn't want to stand on the moral high ground to judge who was right and who was wrong between He's father and mother.

But no matter who is right or wrong, one thing is certain, He Yanyang is the most innocent one among them.

The performance of Mr. and Mrs. He in their respective jobs can be said to be impeccable, but they were both negligent in their duties during He Yanyang's growth process.

After finally realizing that the child needs to be disciplined, the parents mistakenly adopt the rough method of forcing the child to grow too fast and taking a one-size-fits-all approach.

In the end, the conflict and quarrel resulted in one death and one injury to the couple, leaving an unhealable wound in the hearts of mother and son.
