Chapter 81 Spreading rumors
"Ah sneeze!"
Li Wanqing sneezed suddenly, waking up groggily from her sleep.
The first thing I saw when I opened my eyes was Nuonuo's soft, smiling face. I leaned in and gave her a little kiss, which made my daughter giggle.
[Mom's shy, she's sleeping in late.]
Li Wanqing's smile vanished, and she lightly pinched her daughter's cheek.
"Little rascal, you're actually laughing at your mother!"
Last night, if it weren't for someone, would she have been unable to sleep with her body stiff?
I don't know what time it was before I finally couldn't stay awake any longer and fell asleep.
Li Wanqing looked around but couldn't see the culprit.
"Nono, where's Daddy?" Li Wanqing asked, lifting her daughter's chin.
Nono dodged for a moment, then pointed to the door, "They went out."
This nonsensical answer left Li Wanqing even more confused.
Dad went to the cafeteria to buy breakfast and told me not to disturb Mom's sleep.
"Is this your way of keeping your mom from sleeping?" Li Wanqing pointed at the shuttlecock in her hand and smiled helplessly.
Nono quickly hid the shuttlecock behind her back, then smiled guiltily.
Hehe, she just wanted to give it a try.
Li Wanqing pretended not to notice the little guy's guilty conscience, stretched, yawned, and then heard the sound of the courtyard gate opening.
Nuonuo rolled off the bed and ran outside with a thud.
"Dad~~"
Li Wanqing put on a coat and went outside, where she saw Cheng Baichuan walking towards her with a smile.
"You didn't go in a wheelchair today?" Li Wanqing asked in surprise.
Although he can walk with crutches now, he usually uses a wheelchair to get to slightly farther distances.
Cheng Baichuan grunted in agreement and then placed his cane aside.
"I hope to avoid using a wheelchair as much as possible in the future and get used to using a cane as soon as possible. This can also be considered a form of rehabilitation."
Even though Li Wanqing scolded him awake last night, he still hoped to recover as soon as possible.
Now, however, I am not as negative as I was yesterday; instead, I am filled with hope and the strength to persevere.
Li Wanqing did not object. In her opinion, Cheng Baichuan's injuries had actually healed, but he just needed to regain his function.
He can walk for as long as he's not tired.
Nono pouted as she looked at her parents, feeling as if she had been ignored, and she had evidence to prove it.
When her father came in, he just patted her head and the first thing he asked was her mother.
The moment I saw my mother, my eyes lit up.
"Gulu~Gulu~"
Nono touched her stomach; she was hungry.
Looking at the breakfast on the table, Nono stretched out her little hand, and just as she was about to grab it, another hand reached out from behind her.
"Nono, you haven't washed up yet, you can't eat."
Li Wanqing grabbed her daughter's little hand and said, "Come on, Mom will take you to wash up."
Nono looked at the things on the table with a regretful expression, and reluctantly followed her mother away.
Cheng Baichuan laid out breakfast, and the mother and daughter returned soon after.
"I need to go to the regimental headquarters in a bit, and then to the military hospital."
Cheng Baichuan gave the mother and daughter each a steamed bun, and continued, "They probably won't be back for lunch. I have to go to the provincial capital."
Li Wanqing opened her mouth, but still didn't offer any advice.
Something big is going to happen today, something to celebrate.
Telling you in advance actually reduces the surprise.
"Okay, then please pay attention to your safety."
After Cheng Baichuan left, Li Wanqing stayed at home with Nuonuo and taught her to recognize characters using flashcards.
Nono never went to school in her previous life, so these flashcards are very useful to her.
"Mom, now that I know how to read, will I stop being bullied at school?"
As Nuonuo thought this to herself, a clear look of worry was still on her face.
Li Wanqing asked in surprise, "How could Nuonuo have such an idea?"
Nono pouted. "That mean auntie said I'll get bullied at school if I can't read."
In her past life, when her father found her, he was going to send her to school.
However, due to her health condition, we want her to recover before going.
But Qin Qianqian secretly threatened her behind her father's back, and afterwards she refused to go to school no matter what her father did.
Li Wanqing frowned. She had considered that Nuonuo might not have gone to school in her previous life, but she hadn't expected it to be for this reason.
Li Wanqing gently patted Nuonuo's head and said softly, "Going to school is for learning to read and to acquire knowledge."
“Many children don’t know how to read before going to school, so Nuonuo won’t be bullied when she goes to school.”
"Besides..." Li Wanqing pinched her nose and said with a smile, "Our Nuonuo is so cute, if anyone dares to bully you, the teacher and other classmates will help you."
Nono's eyes lit up. "Really?"
Li Wanqing nodded solemnly, "Moreover, our Nuonuo is already learning to read, so she will learn faster than other children when she goes to school."
"Will Nono bully her because other children can't read?"
Nono shook her head vigorously, "No~~"
No, she wouldn't!
It hurts and hurts when you're bullied...
Scenes of being bullied in her past life kept flashing through her mind, and Nuonuo unconsciously clung to her mother.
A strong sense of security gradually calmed her emotions.
Just then, a White Rabbit candy appeared in front of her, and Nono looked up to see her mother's warm smiling face.
"This candy is a reward for our little Nuonuo."
"Because our Nono is a good student who studies diligently and is friendly to her classmates."
Nono's eyes lit up, she grabbed the candy and smiled brightly at Li Wanqing.
She will definitely be a good student and make her parents proud in the future.
With the reward of candy, Nono became more motivated to study.
When Guo Chunxiang arrived, she was extremely surprised to see Nuonuo learning to recognize characters.
"How old is Nuonuo? You've already taught her to read?"
Li Wanqing smiled and said, "I didn't expect her to learn much. What brings you here, sister-in-law?"
Guo Chunxiang slapped her forehead. "Look, I've forgotten the important matter."
"Have you offended Wang Xiumei recently?"
Li Wanqing looked bewildered. "No, I haven't seen her since the National Day performance!"
Guo Chunxiang was puzzled. "Then why did she say outside that you deliberately framed her sister because you didn't get along with her?"
"Her sister?" Li Wanqing was completely confused. "Who is her sister?"
Seeing that Li Wanqing didn't seem to know anything, Guo Chunxiang told her everything she had heard outside.
"Do you think Wang Xiumei has gone mad? How come she can get involved in everything?"
Li Wanqing's lips twitched. "If her sister's name is indeed Wang Xiulan, and she works as a cashier at a state-run restaurant, then it really could be related to me."
Why didn't Wang Xiumei confront her directly, but instead spread rumors in the military region?
