Chapter 18

“You know the game is over? It’s their relationship, don’t get involved.”

“I……”

“Don’t talk about my mother!” Dawei stared at the aunt who was talking nonsense, his eyes red.

Seeing that the little brat was getting angry with her, the aunt pointed at his forehead and scolded: “I’m telling the truth! What’s the matter? How dare you get angry with me? What did your parents teach you? You have no manners!”

The people nearby quickly tried to stop him, “Stop it, she’s still a child.”

“What’s wrong with the child? He is the stepson of that woman anyway. No matter how good she is to him, she can’t possibly stand up for him for such a small matter, right? Who knows, maybe she took advantage of this kid, pretending to be kind and responsible, so that Zhou Tuan would take a fancy to him? He is so cunning at such a young age.”

Dawei couldn’t help it and hit him with his head!

“Don’t talk about my mother! I’ll fight you!!”

This is so that I can’t even take care of my younger brother.

Without his brother’s handle, Xiaoyong fell to the ground. Then he saw his brother getting beaten after bumping into someone, and he burst into tears.

“Brother… wuwuwu! Brother…”

A group of people rushed to stop him. They saw Dawei suffer a great loss, but they managed to stop him.

But this place is not far from the school. Zhou Jun hadn’t seen his two new brothers for a long time, so he took Zhou Wen and Zhou Wu towards home and happened to run into the miserable situation of his two new brothers.

With a loud bang.

My head exploded.

The stepmother is very nice and the two new brothers seem easy to get along with.

If it were any other stepmother, like the one my dad married before, would they still be able to live a good life?

Besides, how many stepmothers can provide meat and eggs to take care of them during a famine?

Deep down in his heart, he had already planned to keep his stepmother in his family. The two new brothers were brought by his stepmother, so naturally he had to protect them! Otherwise, how would he explain to his stepmother when she came back?

I didn’t expect to be bullied on the first day!

Zhou Jun pulled up his sleeves and rushed forward: “Let go of my brother!”

Zhou Wu grinned at his brother: “Brother, please take care of my and my brother’s bags. I’ll go help!”

Knowing that his younger brother was better at fighting than his older brother, Zhou Wen did not stop him. Instead, he put two more bags on his shoulders and walked towards his youngest new brother.

The new little brother cried breathlessly in Aunt Zhaodi’s arms.

Zhou Wen looked at it, said nothing, and accompanied him silently.

Soon, the situation reversed, the three boys from the Zhou family gained the upper hand, and those who tried to stop the fight were unable to stop.

Seeing that the matter was about to get out of hand, the director of the Women’s Federation was invited.

“What are you doing! Stop it! Stop it!”

When the director of the Women’s Federation saw the person being beaten, she instantly became furious: “Yang Hongxia! It’s you again! It’s ok that you had conflicts with other military wives before, but why are you taking it so seriously even with the child!”

When Yang Hongxia saw that it was the director of the Women’s Federation, she stopped, but the young man who was pressing on her did not stop.

Yang Hongxia, who had been punched several times in vain, stood up and spat at the Zhou family boys, “Did I say anything wrong? Zhou Tuan is so unlucky to be entangled with a second-married girl from the countryside! And he has to support five children that are not his own! Isn’t this a sucker!”

“Yang Hongxia!! Shut up!” The director of the Women’s Federation was so angry that her chest heaved violently.

Seeing the director of the Women’s Federation like this, Yang Hongxia was really afraid that she would get angry and cause trouble, so she didn’t say anything.

“Come with me to the office!”

“Director! It’s time for dinner!”

“What! My words are useless?!”

Yang Hongxia hung her head and followed the director of the Women’s Federation. When she left, she gave the Zhou family boys a fierce look: Just wait for me!

Zhou Jun looked at Zhou Wu and Dawei, who were not seriously injured. They smiled at each other and formed a brotherhood.

There is very little oil in the cafeteria, but every time I eat it together with shrimp, crab, fish, etc., it is much better than other places. It doesn’t taste good, but Dawei and Xiaoyong found it quite fresh when they ate it for the first time.

Fish and shrimp are cooked together with coarse grains, which not only makes the grains smell bad, but also gives off a fishy smell.

Some military dependents shouted: “Can’t you put a few pieces of ginger in the kitchen to get rid of the fishy smell?!”

The lady serving the food retorted, “Does your family produce ginger? You’re already eating in the canteen, and you’re still asking for it! The whole country is in a tight spot, where can we get the land and manpower to grow ginger for you? If you really can’t get used to it, go home and eat it yourself! Next one!”

Zhou Jun took two bites, glanced at his two new brothers, and said, “How is it? Are you used to it? If you’re really not full, you two can make some malted milk later.”

Dawei: “I’m used to it, it’s not bad.”

“That’s good.”

Back in the yard, Zhou Jun dug out some iodine from home and used it to wipe the broken wounds of Zhou Wu and Dawei.

Seeing that Zhou Wu and Zhou Jun had other wounds on their bodies, Dawei hesitated and asked, “Are you… often bullied?”

Zhou Jun: “It was just a minor fight at school. It’s better now. My second brother and I get up early with dad to run and practice boxing. We are pretty good at it and won’t be bullied at school. When you go to school, Zhou Wu and I will protect you!”

Dawei said nothing.

It was rare for a stepmother in the village to provide food and clothing for her stepchildren and raise them well, and she even paid for their education? He didn’t dare to think about it.

Besides, including him and his younger brother, the Zhou family has five children in total, all of them are grown up boys…

The little brat is eating me out of house and house.

I just hope he can grow up smoothly, I don’t ask for anything else.

After resting for a while, the three Zhou Jun brothers went to school again.

Qiao Yu came back carrying things, and didn’t notice anything at first, “Dawei! Come and give me a hand!”

Dawei helped Qiao Yu carry the backpack and put it down.

Put something in

She was about to roll up her sleeves to prepare dinner in the room where she slept when she saw redness and swelling on Dawei’s face, and the unconcealable smell of iodine on his body.

“What’s wrong with you, Dawei?”

Dawei wanted to hide, “Mom, I’m fine…”

“Let me see!” Qiao Yu said as he started to pull off the child’s clothes.

Dawei quickly stopped her, “Mom, I’m fine…”

The mother and son were in a stalemate when they heard a voice outside the yard saying, “Is anyone home?”

Qiao Yu wasn’t sure who it was, so he let the guy go for the time being and ran to open the door.

Qiao Yu looked at the person who came and asked, “Who are you?”

“Sister Qiao? My name is Wang Zhaodi. At noon, your child had a fight with Yang Hongxia. The director… the director of the Women’s Federation, asked me to bring some medicine to see the child.”

“What’s going on?”

“You don’t know yet?” Wang Zhaodi was a little surprised. She glanced at Dawei who was hushing her and told him the whole story without hiding anything.

Qiao Yu: “…So that’s how it is. Thank you, Sister Wang. I’ve accepted the medicine. May I ask if Yang Hongxia is with the director of the Women’s Federation now?”

“I’m going back.”

“Oh? How did the director of the Women’s Federation punish Yang Hongxia?”

Wang Zhaodi’s embarrassed gaze moved down to the medicine that Qiao Yu took over.

Qiao Yu chuckled. Even before she met the director of the Women’s Federation, she knew that she was a person who tried to smooth things over.

“Thank you, Sister Wang. I have a few more questions. Where is Yang Hongxia’s home?”

“Where are you going, Sister Qiao? Don’t do anything stupid. Yang Hongxia was indeed wrong this time, but if two military wives fight, it will have an impact on your men…”

So, she has to swallow her anger?

Qiao Yu smiled and said, “Don’t worry, sister-in-law, I won’t make a big deal out of it! I’m just going to get to know the place and see what Yang Hongxia looks like, so I can avoid her in the future!”

Hiding? That’s impossible.
