Chapter 296 But he is the son of a bad guy.
Children see things in black and white; there is no middle ground, only absolute judgment. If you're nice to them, they'll be nice to them; if they don't like them, they won't be nice to them.
Lin Chang'er was momentarily confused.
Seeing that the little guy was getting agitated again, he didn't respond for a moment, but first comforted Li Chuan, and then mentally organized his thoughts to persuade Gu Xiaoman.
Gu Xiaoman had no idea that she was thinking that way; he only thought that his aunt was angry and ignoring him.
But clearly, the person in front of him is the son of a big bad guy. The big bad guy bullies his mother, bullies him, and even bullies his younger brother.
Why can't he take revenge?
Watching his favorite aunt gently comfort the big bad guy's son, patting the dust off his clothes and touching his head.
Gu Xiaoman felt extremely wronged. Her eyes immediately reddened, her cheeks puffed out, and her lips pressed down, remaining deflated for a long while.
Finally unable to hold back, she opened her little mouth and burst into tears, "Auntie doesn't like Xiaoman, Auntie likes the bad boy's son, waah, Auntie doesn't love Xiaoman, waah..."
Gu Xiaoman opened her mouth, tilted her head back, and wiped her big eyes with the back of her little hands. She cried as if all her strength had been drained away, and walked toward the bedroom of the second wife.
Lin Chang'er hurriedly went up and hugged the little guy, raised her hand to touch the corner of his eye, and said helplessly, "Xiaoman, Auntie didn't say she didn't like Xiaoman. Our Xiaoman is a reasonable man, not an unreasonable little rascal, right?"
Gu Xiaolu took Zhou Yi's hand and walked over, touching her younger brother's still-damp eyes. "Don't cry, little brother. Mommy is very busy. She's busy earning money every day so we can live a good life. It's not easy for her to have some free time to take us out to play!"
Zhou Yi was too young to understand what was happening. He just looked up at Gu Xiaoman with a blank expression and said, "Brother, don't cry. It's shameful to cry."
The other children gathered around, offering their own comforting words to Gu Xiaoman.
"Xiaoman, don't cry!"
"Yes, Xiaoman, if you cry again, your third aunt will really get angry."
"Yes, yes, Xiaoman, talk to your third aunt properly! Your third aunt is the most reasonable person."
This made Li Chuan, who was already all alone, even more desolate. Li Qingyang was in the most difficult situation. His younger brother Xiaoman was very kind to him and was willing to lend him money to treat his grandfather's illness on their first meeting.
But he and Xiao Chuan grew up together, and Xiao Chuan treated him very well.
However, as long as Xiaoman's younger brother can accept Xiaochuan's older brother, Xiaochuan's older brother can live a good life here.
Li Qingyang glanced at Li Chuan, who was standing to the side with his head down, not daring to join in the fun, and then at Gu Xiaoman, who was surrounded by everyone like a star. In the end, she went up to comfort Gu Xiaoman.
Gu Ersao also heard the commotion and came out of the bedroom carrying Yudian'er. When she saw Gu Xiaoman crying, she hurried over to ask what was wrong.
Lin Chang'er then told Gu Ersao that Li Chuan and Wang Xing'er had almost been beaten to death by Li Da, that she had helped them get a divorce, and that since the mother and daughter had nowhere to go, she had brought them back.
Gu Ersao's eyes widened, her face filled with anger, looking as if she wanted to give Li Da a good beating to vent her frustration. She gestured to Lin Chang'er, "Even tigers don't eat their cubs! That bastard is inhuman!"
Then, as if remembering something, he pointed at Gu Xiaoman.
Lin Chang'er smiled and said, "I should have told you as soon as you brought her here. Weren't you busy yesterday?"
"I didn't have time to explain to the children, so there was a misunderstanding."
"We just had a little argument. Li Chuan was sitting on the ground, so I went to help him up. Xiao Man is probably jealous, right?"
Gu Xiaoman pouted and didn't say anything, so Lin Chang'er rubbed his head again. "But our Xiaoman is the most reasonable child, right? Auntie explained it clearly and everything will be fine, right?"
His other friends also comforted him.
"Yes, yes, Xiaoman, Li Chuan looks pitiful too."
"Yes, his ears are really stuffed with herbs. I just saw it. Why don't we let him play with us?"
"His mother is still lying in bed! It's really pitiful."
Li Qingyang also seized the opportunity to persuade, "Little brother Xiaoman, Brother Xiaochuan is really a very good person. When my house was blocked, he crawled through the dog hole to warn me. My sister was able to run out to ask my aunt for help because of Brother Xiaochuan's help."
Gu Xiaoman puffed out her cheeks, "But he's the son of a bad guy."
Seeing that her son was still not listening, Gu Ersao reached out to spank him.
Lin Chang'er quickly stopped her, "Second sister-in-law, Xiaoman is young and can be stubborn. I'll talk to him nicely. We don't hit children."
Second Sister-in-law Gu sighed. "Thank you for your trouble, Third Sister-in-law."
Lin Chang'er smiled and said, "It's alright. This matter is also related to me. I'll take care of it. You take Yudian back to your room to rest."
Gu Ersao nodded, then, as if remembering something, began searching among the group of little kids again.
Lin Chang'er understood immediately and asked, "Is Second Sister-in-law looking for Xiao Chuan?"
Gu Ersao nodded, and Lin Chang'er turned to look at Li Chuan, only to find that the little guy had already left sometime earlier.
Lin Chang'er was taken aback and quickly looked at Li Qingyang. Li Qingyang looked around the crowd, immediately understood, and nodded to Lin Chang'er.
"Xiao Niu, you go with Qing Yang." Zhou Xiao Niu lived next door and was one of the first to follow Lin Chang'er. As soon as she gave the order, he nodded and went with Li Qing Yang to find Li Chuan.
Aunt Gu was a little worried, so she tiptoed to look towards the courtyard gate.
Lin Chang'er comforted her, "Second sister-in-law, it's normal for kids to quarrel. Li Chuan is a sensible child. I'll go see him in a bit."
Gu Ersao nodded helplessly and went back to her room.
Lin Chang'er squatted down, put her hands on Gu Xiaoman's shoulders and said earnestly, "Xiaoman, your aunt knows that you are worried about your mother and your brother, which is why you didn't want to see Brother Li Chuan."
"But what your aunt wants to tell you is that a big bad guy doesn't necessarily have a little bad guy as his offspring."
"The big bad guy is the big bad guy, and Li Chuan is Li Chuan. The big bad guy did bad things, but Li Chuan didn't, right?"
Although Gu Xiaoman was unwilling, Li Chuan had indeed not done anything bad since he arrived here yesterday.
On the contrary, he helped his aunt with cooking and picking vegetables, and he ate very little himself.
Although Gu Xiaoman didn't like him, she was still an honest child, so she nodded.
Lin Chang'er then asked, "Do you know why Li Chuan got beaten up by that big bad guy?"
Gu Xiaoman shook her head, and Lin Chang'er said softly, "Because the big bad guy wanted to take advantage of the situation and bully Qingyang's family, Li Chuan went to inform Qingyang, but the big bad guy caught him."
"Li Chuan's ears were almost broken by him, and Li Chuan's mother was almost beaten to death while trying to protect him."
"That's why Brother Li Chuan asked his aunt to help him get a divorce, so that he and his mother could escape the clutches of the big bad guy."
"Brother Li Chuan has also severed ties with the big bad guy. You know what severing ties means, right? Just like Auntie severed ties with those bad guys from before, meaning she has nothing to do with them anymore."
"In a few days, once Aunt Xing'er is feeling better, Auntie will take him to the yamen to change his name. By then, he'll be completely unrelated to that big bad guy..."
