Chapter 52 - Chapter 52 Hardships

在带钟晗和顾小凡回家之前,柴文军带着孩子们去了小区的一家小超市.年轻的浩浩自然没有注意到妈妈此刻的焦躁不安,因为他可以买到冰淇淋等好吃的小吃,所以非常高兴.他高兴地挑了几个里面装着玩具的零食,数量显然比柴文军承诺的要多,但柴文军并没有阻止他,默默地付了钱.小浩浩似乎很开心.他在回家的路上跳起来,对柴文军说:"好吃的这么多,太开心了!Chai Wenjun's face was a little red, and she forced a few smiles to the child and said nothing.Gu Xiaofan was a little surprised. With the money Ren Xuefeng gave Chai Wenjun, she could live in a better house, drive a sports car like Dai Mei, and let her children eat and drink well. Her clothes are the best among her peers. However, she lives in such a remote community. Not only is she dressed very plainly, but Xiao Haohao's cotton coat is also obviously bought from a bargaining stall. It seems that the child does not have the opportunity to get so many snacks at once on weekdays. This makes people curious. Where did Chai Wenjun spend all the money given by Ren Xuefeng?When I came to Chai Wenjun's house, the decoration in the house was very simple, with white latex paint walls and simple fabric sofas. There were not many things in the house, and children's toys could be seen everywhere.While Chai Wenjun was sorting out the toys everywhere in the living room, he reluctantly asked Zhong Han and Gu Xiaofan to sit in the living room. He changed his clothes and the children's cotton coat, and then walked into the bedroom and turned on the TV in the bedroom. Greeting Xiao Haohao: "Haohao, a cartoon is about to start. Take your delicious food and go inside to watch the cartoon!"But Xiao Haohao did not jump into the house immediately. For him, there was someone more attractive and curious than the cartoon today."Are you the police uncle?" He came close to Zhong Han. His voice was small and he asked timidly. He was shy but couldn't help his curiosity.Zhong Han leaned down, nodded to him, and said with an especially friendly smile: "Yes.""Then..." Xiao Haohao's eyes lit up in an instant. "The kids said that the police uncle can catch bad guys. Can you?""I can, too." Zhong Han asked and answered."Do you have any flesh on your arms?" Little Haohao raised his thin little arm and gestured, "The kids said that you need muscles to beat up bad guys!"Zhong Han clenched his fist and bent his arm, letting Little Haohao touch his arm. Little Haohao stretched out his little hand and pinched it, and opened his eyes wide in surprise: "Wow!""Haohao. Stop making trouble, go into the house and watch cartoons!" Chai Wenjun couldn't help but urge the child.Little Haohao grabbed the delicious food in his hand and stood on tiptoe to hook Zhong Han's neck. In a voice that he thought was a whisper, but in fact, others could hear clearly, he said to him: "Uncle, Wang Xiaoming in the kindergarten always bullies me and steals my delicious food. He also pushed me down. He is a bad guy, catch him!"Gu Xiaofan couldn't help wanting to laugh, but was afraid of hurting the child's feelings, so he forced himself not to laugh. The world of adults after adulthood is always complicated for children. Especially for a young child like Xiao Haohao, the world and life are simple. Buying delicious snacks is good, watching cartoons is happy, and even the so-called bad things are just fighting with a naughty and domineering child."Okay, uncle will go to your kindergarten in the future to see what Wang Xiaoming looks like!" Zhong Han agreed seriously.Xiao Haohao was relieved immediately, and happily took his snacks to the bedroom to watch cartoons. Chai Wenjun followed him and gently closed the bedroom door."I'm sorry, I know what you came to me today for. I don't want the child to hear so many things between adults, so... I hope you can understand." Chai Wenjun spoke in a low voice and was very depressed."It doesn't matter, we can understand your protection of the child." Gu Xiaofan took the lead in expressing understanding.Zhong Han asked, "What do you think is the purpose of our visit today?""It should be about the custody of Haohao." Chai Wenjun sighed, a little sad, "I heard about Ren Xuefeng's accident. I have been living in fear these days, fearing that someone would suddenly knock on the door. In the end, the one who should come still came, but I didn't expect that it was you policemen who came."Her words were equivalent to admitting that little Haohao was indeed Ren Xuefeng's child. Zhong Han listened calmly, and in the end, he did not take the initiative to explain their original intention. Instead, he followed Chai Wenjun's words and asked, "When did you know that Ren Xuefeng was in trouble? Before we came to you, who were you worried about coming to you?""Originally, he should have given me and the child living expenses at the beginning of this month. He never delayed in the past, and I didn't care at first. I wanted to call him to ask, but there was no news. I tried to call him, but I couldn't get through. I asked someone I knew and heard that he had an accident. "Chai Wenjun shook her head with a worried look on her face. "I don't know who will come to me. I just feel that since Ren Xuefeng is dead, our previous agreement is no longer valid. If other people in his family know about Haohao's situation, they will definitely come to my house, so I am very worried." After she finished speaking, she suddenly stood up and knelt on the ground with a plop. Tears instantly slid out of her eyes. Zhong Han and Gu Xiaofan were both shocked. Gu Xiaofan stood up and tried to help her up, but Chai Wenjun insisted on kneeling. She couldn't pull her up no matter how hard she pulled. In the end, it was with the help of Zhong Han that she finally pulled her up from the ground and settled her on the sofa again. "Let's talk about it nicely. If there is anything we can help with, we will do our best. Don't kneel down!" Gu Xiaofan was afraid that Chai Wenjun would kneel down again. Her words touched Chai Wenjun's heart. Upon hearing this, Chai Wenjun immediately reached out and grabbed Gu Xiaofan's hand, holding it tightly: "Please, please, help me! Don't take Haohao away, okay?""Don't be excited, speak clearly." Gu Xiaofan's arm was hurt by Chai Wenjun's pinching. He was embarrassed to say it, so he could only comfort her while secretly pulling his hand back, "What's the agreement between you and Ren Xuefeng?"Chai Wenjun shook her head painfully, unwilling to tell the agreement between her and Ren Xuefeng, but her hand loosened. Gu Xiaofan put his hand behind his back and secretly rubbed the nail marks on his wrist."Chai Wenjun, we came here today, not to stand on the side of either side, but simply to understand the situation," Zhong Han said to Chai Wenjun, "As for which side needs our help more, we also need to weigh it after listening to the situation."Chai Wenjun's two hands were twisted together, and her expression was a little helpless, as if a battle between heaven and man was unfolding in her heart."You are a mother, we all understand your feelings. The child is still so young. Personally, I also think that the child should not be allowed to leave the mother's side. So, I hope you can be more active and communicate with us so that we can grasp the real situation, so that we can find a way to help you solve the problem, don't you think?" Gu Xiaofan simply squatted down and looked into Chai Wenjun's eyes, as if he was persuading her like a stubborn child.Chai Wenjun shed tears, nodded slowly, and choked up and said: "When I first found out that I was pregnant... I agreed with Ren Xuefeng that I would raise the child after it was born, and he would give me money. When the child was ten years old, he would take it back. I also had my own difficulties at that time, so I agreed, but I regretted it soon after the child was born. After all, it was my own child born after ten months of pregnancy, and I couldn't bear to let it go!"After she said this, why Xiao Haohao habitually called her aunt, Gu Xiaofan and Zhong Han knew the reason."How did you get together with Ren Xuefeng?" Zhong Han asked her clearly when she spoke.Chai Wenjun blushed: "Actually, I didn't really want to do anything with him. At that time, I had just divorced and lived alone. I had just come to City A and changed my job, so it was not easy. Ren Xuefeng was the boss and took good care of me. Then... I didn't know what I was thinking at the time. Anyway, it happened just once, just once. I don't know how it happened so coincidentally that I got Haohao. When I found out that something was wrong, I was stunned and thought it was impossible.""Why do you think it's impossible? Is it because Ren Xuefeng is a little older?" Gu Xiaofan thought of the most likely reason.Chai Wenjun blushed and shook her head: "No, I didn't think so. I just felt that it was impossible for me to get pregnant. I... I was married once before, and I never got pregnant after marriage. My husband and I went to check everywhere, but we didn't find any problems. Later, a hospital finally found out that my ex-husband and I were immune to each other, so we couldn't get pregnant. We received treatment for a period of time, but it didn't work at all. He later insisted that there must be something wrong with my body, so we divorced. I always thought that maybe I really had defects in that aspect, so I didn't take any protective measures, and the result was...""So as soon as you found out you were pregnant, you decided to give birth to the child?""I was afraid that if I didn't give birth this time, I would never be able to give birth in the future. When I told Ren Xuefeng, he immediately supported me to give birth to the child. He said that if it was a girl, he would give me money and I would raise her. If it was a boy, he would grow up with me until he was 10 years old, and then he would take him back to take care of him. Later, Haohao was born." Chai Wenjun said with mixed feelings.
