Zhang He saw Tinglan standing there obediently and being scolded by Wen Jian. Although he understood Wen Jian's feelings, she was his daughter after all, so he must feel distressed. However, it was not easy to protect Tinglan at this time, so he said gently
: "It's Tinglan's fault this time. Auntie will definitely criticize her when she gets back. The most important thing for you now is to stay in a good mood and heal your injuries. Whatever you want to eat or want, auntie will buy it for you.
OK?"
Wen Jian cried again: "I don't want to buy anything. I have to go to school and the midterm exam is coming soon."
As soon as Zhang He heard her words, he felt sincerely sorry for her. Even now, he was still thinking about going to school. What a good boy. He immediately said: "It doesn't matter. I promise not to delay your studies while you are injured.
Is it okay for Auntie to ask Uncle to drive you to and from school every day?"
Wen Lan was stunned and said nothing, then glanced at Shu Minghai standing next to him.
Wen Jian stopped crying and looked at Shu Minghai.
Zhang He also said to Shu Minghai: "Say something."
Shu Minghai then nodded: "Okay."
Shu Minghai drove here by himself just now, so he just happened to take Wen Jian home. Wen Jian's left leg was in a plaster and she couldn't walk, so Shu Minghai squatted down and carried Wen Jian to the car, with Wen Lan and Zhang He behind.
He carefully supported Wen Jian.
Tinglan helped carry Wen Jian's shoes.
Although she didn't do it intentionally, it was because she suddenly slowed down and Wen Jian fell down while sprinting, so she felt really guilty and was happy to do something for Wen Jian.
After the family of three sent Wen Jian home, they returned to their own home.
Shu Minghai kept his face tied up. He was the first to go to the hospital. He also heard from teachers and doctors at the school that he was indeed tripped by Tinglan without warning.
So when eating dinner, he looked at Tinglan with a serious expression: "There is no one else now. Tell dad the truth. Did you do it on purpose? Tinglan, if you do something wrong, you must be brave enough to take responsibility for it."
Being questioned like this by his father, Tinglan's eyes turned red, and the rice got stuck in his throat, making him unable to eat any more.
When Zhang He heard this, he said angrily: "Shu Minghai, is there something wrong with you? Don't you know what your child is like? Is Lanlan the kind of child who lies? I just endured it in the ward, little
It’s understandable that Jane, as a child, got emotional when she got hurt, but what’s in Wen Lan’s eyes? It seems like we, Lan Lan, are such bad children.”
Shu Minghai stopped talking.
Zhang He continued: "Lan Lan, mom knows you didn't do it on purpose, so don't feel too guilty. From now on, take more care of little Jane at school. Your dad is responsible for picking up and dropping off little Jane, and he can also take you to school."
Tinglan nodded silently.
Early the next morning, Tinglan got up early and went with her father to Wen Jian's house to pick her up for school. Just like yesterday, her father carried Wen Jian downstairs, and she helped Wen Jian carry her schoolbag.
When they got to the car downstairs, Ting Lan took the initiative to sit in the passenger seat, leaving the back seat to Wen Jian.
As a result, Wen Jian pointed to the passenger seat on Shu Minghai's back and said, "I want to sit here, there's a lot of space."
"Okay, little Jane, sit here." Shu Minghai carefully put her into the passenger seat.
Tinglan took her bag and sat in the back row.
Wen Jian kept her face tied up and was docile only when talking to Shu Minghai. When she saw Ting Lan, her face immediately changed.
When the bus arrived at the school gate, Wen Jian refused to let Shu Minghai carry her in again. She felt embarrassed, so she used crutches to go in by herself.
"Is it okay?" Shu Minghai asked while standing at the school gate. Parents are not allowed to enter the school without approval.
"Okay." Wen Jian replied, it looks better to have a cane than to be carried on one's back.
