Reborn as a widow in the 70s

Since both parties were voluntary, the village cadres were not embarrassed and quickly completed all the procedures and issued the required certificates.

Finally, under the witness of the village cadres, both parties signed an adoption document.

It was stated that Zhao Xuewen would be raised by Lu Aiguo and his wife in the future, Liu Aifeng could not regret it for any reason, and Zhao Xuewen would no longer bear the obligation to support Liu Aifeng in the future.

After both parties signed the contract, Lu Aiguo took Zhao Xuewen and Song Xiuxiu, mother and daughter, to leave.

Just when they turned to leave, Zhao Xuewen suddenly turned around and threw the baggage in Liu Aifeng's face, then glared at her with a stern look, then turned and left.

Liu Aifeng angrily threw the baggage aside, cursed in a low voice, "The little white-eyed wolf who suffered a thousand cuts", then picked up the baggage and left.

In fact, there are two pieces of clothes in the bag that are extremely worn out. They were made for Zhao Xuewen by his grandmother when he was in good health.

On the way back, since it was already afternoon and there were no bullock carts going to the city, Lu Aiguo's family of four could only walk back.

Yaya was very happy along the way, chattering around Zhao Xuewen non-stop, calling "brother" and asking questions.

Zhao Xuewen was a little at a loss. Yaya said for a long time, but he just gave a stiff "hmm".

Song Xiuxiu and Lu Aiguo walked behind the two children. Seeing their harmonious scene, Song Xiuxiu said with some worry.

"I don't know if these two children can get along!"

Lu Aiguo held her hand and said softly: "Take your time, don't be in a hurry! Yaya has a very lovable personality. Xuewen is just not familiar with her now. It will get better as time goes by!"

"Besides, when I first came back, Yaya didn't dare to approach me, but look how clingy she is to me now!"

At this point, Song Xiuxiu had to admit that Yaya was really attached to Lu Aiguo now and listened to his words. Could this be the natural relationship between father and daughter?

They walked and had fun all the way, but they didn't feel that the journey was far away. In less than an hour, they entered Gulian City.

Song Xiuxiu saw that it was not too late, so she asked Lu Aiguo to take Zhao Xuewen to get a haircut and then take a bath in a public bath. She took Yaya to the store to buy a pair of shoes and other supplies for Zhao Xuewen.

Lu Aiguo looked at Zhao Xuewen's messy hair and nodded. It really should be cut.So he told his wife a few words, and then took Zhao Xuewen to the barber shop.

Zhao Xuewen's hair was cut by his grandmother when he was a child. Later, when his grandmother was gone, he cut his own hair.A child was holding a pair of scissors, and was cutting her hair here and there, making it look like a dog had gnawed it.

When he arrived at the barber shop, the barber washed his hair and asked him what kind of haircut he wanted.

Lu Aiguo pointed to his own position and said, "Do what I do!"

The hair was cut soon. Zhao Xuewen looked in the mirror and found that he was indeed much more energetic. He pursed his lips and wanted to say thank you to Lu Aiguo, but he couldn't say it.

After Lu Aiguo paid, he took him to the public bath again.

But it's summer now, and there are very few people coming here to take a bath, so the public baths are not open.

Lu Aiguo had no choice but to take him back to the guest house and help him scrub in the water room.

At the beginning, Zhao Xuewen was still reluctant to let go and was unwilling to take off his clothes. Seeing that he was a little nervous, Lu Aiguo grabbed him without saying a word, and then took off his clothes in three strokes.

When Zhao Xuewen stood naked in front of Lu Aiguo, the man was immediately shocked.

What exactly had happened to this child? There were new injuries and old injuries all over his body, and there were bruises all over his body, which looked like they had been screwed out.

Lu Aiguo took a deep breath and started scrubbing him without saying anything.

The pain this child suffered before has passed, and he will slowly get better in the future, whether it is physical injuries or mental injuries.

When scrubbing the areas with scars, Lu Aiguo deliberately used less force for fear of hurting him, but Zhao Xuewen's face remained unchanged, as if he was numb to the scars and pain.

After helping him take a bath, the two returned to the room. Before Song Xiuxiu came back with Yaya, Lu Aiguo moved two chairs and motioned for Zhao Xuewen to sit down. Zhao Xuewen was not polite and sat directly opposite him.

Lu Aiguo stared at the ice face and said, "If you have anything to ask, just ask!"

Zhao Xuewen raised his eyes and looked directly at the man in front of him, and then slowly said: "Why do you want to adopt me!"

Lu Aiguo did not treat him as a child, because Lu Aiguo knew from his observation of him today that this child's mind is much more mature than other children of the same age.

So he used the tone of talking to an adult and said: "Because your father is my comrade-in-arms. We once went on a mission together and he failed to come back, so I have an obligation to take care of you and make him feel at ease!"

Zhao Xuewen: "When a person dies, he is dead. He doesn't know anything. He doesn't know whether you care about me or not."

Lu Aiguo: "In addition to your father's reasons, I also heard that you were abused. I don't want you to grow up in that environment. To be honest, I'm afraid that you will grow crooked and your father's reputation as a martyr will be insulted in the future."

Zhao Xuewen: "But you won't get a penny for adopting me. All my money was gambled by my stepfather!"

Lu Aiguo: "I don't raise you for money. Let me tell you the truth. In terms of my current position, not to mention the more than 300 yuan, even your father's entire pension, it doesn't mean anything to me. A huge amount.”

Zhao Xuewen: "Aren't you afraid that I will be a drag?"

Lu Aiguo: "Whether you are a drag or not is not something I can decide, but you yourself. If you are willing to work hard and make progress, not only will you not be a drag, but you may also be able to be a person who contributes to the country and the people in the future."

"But if you feel that you are a drag, eating and waiting to die every day, there is nothing I can do about it."

"Anyway, I won't miss your stutter. I'll raise you till you are old enough. Whether you live or die in the future is up to you and has nothing to do with me."

Hearing this, Zhao Xuewen lowered his head and was silent for a while before speaking again: "Is that the vicious couple just let them go?"

When he said this, Zhao Xuewen lowered his head. Lu Aiguo couldn't see his expression, but he could tell from his words that he said it through gritted teeth.

Lu Aiguo paused, and then said solemnly: "I know they treat you very badly, and you hate them too, but you have to remember that you are only six years old, and you still have a long way to go in the future. You must spend your whole life on this kind of person."

"Do you know why I didn't pursue the pension issue?"

Zhao Xuewen raised his head and looked at him, his eyes full of puzzlement and doubts. Zhao Xuewen really didn't understand that it was the money his father had paid for with his life, so let's forget it!

Lu Aiguo saw what he was thinking, stretched out his right hand and touched his prickly head, and said: "I know that your father paid for that money with his life, but the reality is like this, and you also know that money Your stepfather has already squandered it all, and even if you kill him now, he won’t be able to get the money back.”

"Why waste time on this kind of thing? When you grow up, you will understand that things that you once couldn't figure out and couldn't let go of will actually be insignificant and not worth mentioning in your future eyes!"

"You have to remember that from now on you have nothing to do with those people. Your life only belongs to you, and only once. Don't waste a single minute of your life for those irrelevant people! There are evil people. Evil people are tormented, everything is destined to happen!"

Zhao Xuewen nodded with some vague understanding!
