When he arrived at the door of his house, Gao Zheng said to Tang Jingyue, "Just tell me that I did it at work. Don't say that I went on a mission, otherwise my mother will worry again."
Before coming back, Tang Jingyue called her home and said that Gao Zheng was going home today. At this moment, the two children and the elderly were waiting at the door happily.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw Gao Zheng hanging by his arms, and the two elders' expressions changed instantly.
Gao Zheng pretended to be relaxed and said, "Mom, Dad, I'm back."
"Yanyan, dad is back."
"Zhuangzhuang, Yanyan, look, dad is back and bought you a lot of delicious food."
Tang Jingyue handed a gift bag of snacks they bought on the road to the child.
But the two children's attention today was not on the snacks, but on Gao Zheng's legs.
"Xiao Zheng, what's wrong with your arm?"
Mrs. Gao was frightened when she saw Gao Zheng hanging by his arms, "Why are you injured again?"
"Mom, it's okay. I accidentally knocked myself down at work a few days ago."
Mr. Gao's expression also became serious.
It was exactly as he guessed.
"Why are you injured again?
You kid, it’s strange that you have to go home. You must be injured and you’re afraid that we’ll worry, so you’re avoiding going home.”
The old lady looked at her son, her heart was broken, and her tears couldn't stop flowing down.
Gao Zheng saw his old mother crying and hurriedly explained, "Mom, no, I'm just busy at work. It's really nothing. You can see that I'll be fine soon."
When the old lady saw her son injured, her reaction was exactly the same as Tang Jingyue's.
"You have become the deputy director, how can you still be injured?"
Gao Zheng explained, "Mom, I accidentally knocked it."
Hearing what Gao Zheng said, Mrs. Gao looked at him suspiciously, "How old are you, that you can still fight like this?
Are you planning to go on a mission again?"
Mrs. Gao looked at her old man and said, "Old man, please tell him, why is your son working so hard? He is already an official. Can't you let the people below you do it if you have something to do?"
How can the deputy director go on a mission? He is not the only one in their unit. You see, the leaders are all very different."
Mrs. Gao was anxious and angry.
"Stop nagging, and stop interfering with work matters."
Mr. Gao glared at the old lady, then looked at Gao Zheng and asked, "Is it serious?"
"It's okay, the plaster will be ready in two days."
Gao Zheng sat on the sofa, and his daughter was chewing the bread bought by Tang Jingyue. She tore the bread with her short hands and stuffed it into Gao Zheng's mouth, "Dad, eat."
Zhuang Zhuang stood in front of Gao Zheng with a stern face, looking at his arm tied with gauze and not eating any snacks.
"Dad, have you caught the bad guys?"
he asked dully.
Gao Zheng touched his head and replied, "Well, dad beat away all the bad guys."
"Dad is hurt."
Zhuang Zhuang looked at Gao Zheng's arm with a slumped face, his expression extremely solemn.
"It's okay, it's just a minor injury. It will be fine in a few days."
Gao Zheng looked at Zhuang Zhuang and smiled, "Son, what kind of expression is this?
Dad is injured, are you disappointed in him?"
Zhuang Zhuang shook his head, "No."
"When I grow up, I will fight bad guys with my father."
"As long as I'm here, dad won't be hurt."
Yanyan, who was eating bread, immediately turned serious when she heard that there were bad guys, "Dad, Yanyan is also going to fight the bad guys."
Gao Zheng chuckled, "Okay."
"Dad, does it hurt?
Yanyan blows it for you."
Gao Zheng put the child on his lap and nodded lovingly, "Okay, my girl will blow it for me and it won't hurt anymore."
Yanyan carefully blew twice on her arm, her big eyes flickering, she looked at Gao Zheng and asked seriously, "Dad, does it hurt anymore?"
Mr. Gao praised, "My eldest granddaughter is really a little cotton-padded jacket."
"I am daddy's little cotton-padded jacket."
"What about brother?"
Yanyan looked at Gao Zheng with her bright eyes and asked.
Gao Zheng replied, "Brother is wearing a military coat."
Mrs. Gao looked at the happy scene of her son and daughter under Gao Zheng's knees, and couldn't help but persuade her, "Old son, look how happy you are now to have two children, but you must protect yourself, don't be so
Mrs. Gao said, "Zhuang Zhuang has been clamoring for you to take him to shoot guns. You must do what you promised to your child."
Zhuang Zhuang looked at Gao Zheng expectantly.
Gao Zheng said, "When the cast on dad's arm is removed in two days, I will take you to have a massage, okay?"
"Shoot with daddy's real gun?"
Gao Zheng, "..."
"Yes, with a real gun."
After hearing Gao Zheng's words, Zhuang Zhuang immediately smiled and expressed his expectation.
Gao Zheng was sitting at home, with his parents and two children by his side. He felt extremely satisfied, and suddenly regretted that he had been alone outside for so many days after being injured, and was too scared to even make a phone call.
After thinking about it, what I did before was also correct.
If he gets hurt again next time, he would rather bear it all alone and not let them worry.
Gao Zheng was injured this time. Mrs. Gao thought that her son could rest at home for a while and accompany them. Unexpectedly, Gao Zheng was hanging by his arm and commuting to and from get off work every day, rain or shine.
Half a month later, the cast on my arm was removed.
Gao Zheng kept his promise and took Zhuang Zhuang to the shooting range.
Zhuangzhuang was very excited when he came back. He held a toy gun and played guns all day long.
The two children were about to celebrate their third birthday, and Tang Jianye rushed to discuss with Gao Zheng and the others about hosting a birthday party for the children.
"Dad, there's no need. There's no birthday party for the kid. Just have a meal at home and call all his friends over."
Tang Jianye refused, "Oh, you don't understand. Nowadays, it's popular for children to have birthday parties. They go to hotels to treat guests to dinner, and they have to decorate the scene. It's very grand. Our children have to keep up with the times."
"
Seeing that the Gao family was hesitant and did not speak,
Tang Jianye thought they were afraid of spending money. He patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I'll pay for it."
Gao Zheng said, "There is no need for three-year-old children. We will wait until they are 18 years old to do it for them. Now we can just have a meal at home. We have to develop a good habit of thrift at a young age."
When Tang Jianye heard Gao Zheng's rhetoric again, he rolled his eyes speechlessly, "I said I would pay for it, but your family talks about being diligent and frugal all day long, as if spending money is a big sin. We earn the money ourselves."
Spend it yourself, don’t steal or rob, what’s wrong with that? You should be extravagant when it’s time to be extravagant.
Otherwise, the child will never see the world when he grows up."
"Xiao Zheng, just listen to your father-in-law this time.
He is right, we have to spend the money we should spend, and we have to give our children a birthday party when they are three years old."
Mr. Gao, who has been diligent and frugal all his life, and donated half of his pension to students in poor mountainous areas, made an exception in front of his two grandsons.
