Transmigrate to the ’80s to Be a Stepmother

 

t/w: graphic corporal punishment

Qin Shi and Gu Qinghai returned home, and the twins immediately welcomed them as if they hadn't seen them for hundreds of years.
They were clinging to be petted and playing cute.

 

When they saw Gu Qinghai's face was bruised, they immediately widened their eyes and said, “Brother, you are injured!”

 

“What happened to you, brother?” Ping Ping and An An let go of Qin Shi, holding Gu Qinghai's leg and worried.

 

“It's all right.
I wasn't careful and knocked against the door.” Gu Qinghai smiled and touched their heads.

 

Qin Shi looked at the twins and said, “Go, take your eldest brother to the clinic, and ask the doctor to give him medicine.”

 

The twins immediately nodded, took Gu Qinghai's hand, and dragged him outside, saying, “Let's go, let's go, Hurry!”

 

“It's no problem; just rub it with some medicine oil.” Gu Qinghai didn't want to go.

 

Before Qin Shi could say anything, the two little babies put their faces up and tried to pull Gu Qinghai out, saying, “No!”

 

Gu Qinghai watched the body of the twins leaning back to drag him crazily.
He was afraid that they would fall, so he moved his body quickly and could only be pulled away by them.

 

“Be careful on the way, and come back after finishing it,” Qin Shi warned.

 

“Don't worry.”

 

“Okay!”

 

The three children answered together and went out of the door.

 

The clinic was not far away, and Qin Shi was not worried.
Seeing them gone, she went to do her own business.

 

After leaving the house, Gu Qinghai turned his head to look at the door, then looked left and right.
After confirming that there was no one, he whispered to the twins, “Ping Ping and An An, brother want to tell you something.”

 

“What is it?”

 

The twins looked up at Qinghai.

 

“Eh, umm” Gu Qinghai said after a pause, “The matter of what we should call Aunt Qin Shi.
It was the elder brother who was wrong before.
His brain was like a cigarette, and he wouldn't let you call her anything.
We'll apologize to her later, when we go home, and then…
we'll call her mom, okay?”

 

The twins nodded casually and said, “Okay.”

 

Gu Qinghai was shocked when he saw that they had no intention of resisting.
“You guys have no reaction?”

 

An An sighed like a young adult and said, “I think it's good for her to be our mother.
I like her.
The more I think about it recently, the more I think we are wrong.
I was going to tell you with Ping Ping.
I didn't expect you to say it first.”

 

An An glanced at Gu Qinghai and said, “If not because of you, older brother, we would not have changed how to address her.”

 

Ping Ping puckered his lips and said with some embarrassment, “Actually, I called her mom before.”

 

An An and Gu Qinghai looked at him together.
Ping Ping smiled and said, “When you were not there when I woke up from a nap, our mother was with me.
I couldn't control it.
I called her mom.”

 

An An hurriedly asked, “What's her reaction?”

 

Ping Ping smiled again, “She laughed and smiled very well!”

 

An An is relieved after hearing those words.
Now they don't have to worry that she will refuse to accept it.
However…
An An looked up at Qinghai and said, “Brother, you should apologize seriously.
You are the most naughty.
Mom will not accept you so easily.”

 

Gu Qinghai: “…”

 

Gu Qinghai kept silent for a few seconds and rubbed An An's little head hard.
“You'd better worry about yourself!”

 

An An squealed and wouldn't let Gu Qinghai play with her hair: “Bad older brother! If you rub my hair more! My braid will be crooked huhu~”

 

Gu Qinghai: “It didn't get crooked.”

 

An An pouted and glared at him: “Then you are bad!”

 

Gu Qinghai smiled and pulled them both forward.

 

……

 

Lu Zetian came back earlier than usual.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Gu Qinghai's face injury, and his eyes changed.
He wanted to ask, but Qin Shi in the kitchen shouted at him.

 

“Zetian, come and help me.”

 

Lu Zetian paused, turned, and walked to the kitchen, he decided to ask Gu Qinghai what happened later.

 

“What do you want me to do?” Lu Zetian looked at the stove.

 

“Help me peel some garlic.” Qin Shi, who kneaded the dough, did not lift her head, and continued to knead the dough in the basin.

 

Lu Zetian glanced at her movements, then looked at the dough in the basin, washed his hands, and said, “Shall I knead them?”

 

Qin Shi shook her head.
“It will be ready soon.”

 

Lu Zetian nodded, looked for a headful of garlic, and peeled it skillfully.

 

Qin Shi asked, “By the way, Zhao Haoran is in Xiao Hai's class, are you familiar with his father, Leader Zhao?”

 

Lu Zetian looked up at her, “It's alright, what's the matter?”

 

Qin Shi told Lu Zetian what happened today in detail.
Lu Zetian's face was grim, and his expression was very ugly.

 

Qin Shi: “Do you know where his home is? After dinner, let's take Gu Qinghai to their door to apologize.”

 

Lu Zetian understood her subtext and nodded decisively, “Well.”

 

“Thank you for what happened today.” Lu Zetian sighed.
If there was no Qin Shi, he would come back at night to see Gu Qinghai's face.
He knew that he was fighting again, so he must be punished by the family rules.

 

But now, as soon as Qin Shi said that, Lu Zetian couldn't go on.
Gu Qinghai was on the right.

 

Qin Shi glanced at Lu Zetian and said, “You, don't beat the child in the future.
How painful is it to draw out the ruler to the palms?”

 

“You should care more about the children.
They also need the company of their father.”

 

Lu Zetian nodded, his eyes a little guilty, “I know.”

 

After a pause, he added: “The army has a mission to go out recently, they hinted at me.”

 

Qin Shi stopped and said, “Are you going?”

 

Lu Zetian shook his head and reached out to Qin Shi for her to see if he had enough garlic in his hand.
When Qin Shi nodded, he stopped.
Then while cleaning the garlic peel, he said, “I don't want to go.”

 

“It's just a rumor.
They haven't determined the person yet, but I don't want to go.”

 

Although he may have done meritorious deeds and won awards when he came back, he still didn't want to go.
Now he doesn't want to fight like that.
He just wants to stay at home more.

 

Lu Zetian's eyes moved to Qin Shi's face, and the light in his eyes flashed slightly.

 

Qin Shi nodded casually.
It doesn't matter whether he goes or not.
He just needs to give her the salary and living expenses in advance.

 

 

Hmm…
It's been half a month.
She should show Lu Zetian the account book again in the evening, it's time to ask for a salary.

 

She also wanted to buy some new cloth to make a windbreaker.
It was getting cold, so she could have an overcoat and a windbreaker.
This fashionable and foreign style could make a lot of money!

 

While thinking about it, Qin Shi heard Lu Zetian say, “The Political Commissar told me that I, Zhao, and another person were on the list for this mission.
The other one…
He told me today that his wife is pregnant.
They were both very old, and they were pregnant with their first child.
He should not go.”

 

“So I intend to give the opportunity to Chief Zhao.
“

 

Qin Shi looked up at him and immediately reacted.

 

The corner of her mouth formed a smile, she took out the dough and patted it on the chopping board.
“Let's go and tell him the good news tonight.”

 

Lu Zetian also smiled.
He sighed, realizing again that talking to smart people is comfortable.

 

After eating and digesting for a while, Qin Shi asked Gu Qinghai to look after his younger brother and sister and went out with Lu Zetian.

 

Gu Qinghai knew that they had gone to Zhao Haoran's house.
He was so happy that he played with the twins at home.
He rarely released his nature and went crazy at home.

 

At this point, everyone is either eating or has just finished eating and is resting.
Qin Shi saw no one along the way.

 

When they arrived at Zhao Jianjun's house, they saw Zhao Haoran in the yard before they could knock.

 

Zhao Haoran also saw the two of them, his face turned white, and he turned and ran into the room.

 

Qin Shi and Lu Zetian looked at each other, and Lu Zetian knocked on the door of their house.

 

“Who is it?” A somewhat plump woman came out of the room.
She was Zhao Haoran's mother, Liu Cui.

 

It was already dark, and there were no lights in the yard.
The nearsighted Liu Cui squinted at the gate and asked again, “Who are you guys?”

 

Lu Zetian shouted his reply: “I'm Lu Zetian, I am here to come find Lao Zhao.”

 

Liu Cui knew Lu Zetian and heard his voice, so she trotted to open the door and said, “Ah, Chief Lu, what do you need with Lao Zhao?”

 

After entering, Liu Cui saw Qin Shi beside Lu Zetian.
Her heart dropped, and she was inexplicably guilty.

 

Zhao Haoran came back and told her everything.
She didn't dare to tell Lao Zhao.
Did they come here to complain?

 

While Liu Cui was panicking, Zhao Jianjun, who hadn't seen Liu Cui come back for a long time, came out.
He was surprised to see Lu Zetian come to their home.
He smiled and welcomed Lu Zetian and Qin Shi into the house, and asked Liu Cui to pour tea.

 

Lu Zetian introduced Qin Shi to Zhao Jianjun, and the three of them made a few polite remarks before sitting down.

 

Zhao Jianjun smiled and asked, “Why do you want to come to my house today? Is there anything important?”

 

Lu Zetian also smiled, “Brother Zhao, you also know about the mission.
I'll tell you clearly.
Brother Bao's wife is pregnant, and I don't plan to go this time.”

 

Zhao Jianjun looked serious and said, “Are you serious?”

 

Lu Zetian nodded, “I won't joke about things regarding work.”

 

Zhao Jianjun immediately laughed when he heard his words.
He was different from Lu Zetian.
Lu Zetian was fine if he didn't go once, but he needed to perform meritorious deeds and get rewarded.

 

 

“Then I really thank you!” Zhao Jianjun was very happy.
Seeing Liu Cui coming back with tea, he quickly asked her to take out some fruit to serve people.

 

Liu Cui was a little surprised.
She didn't know why he was so generous, but she never interrupted his decision.
Even though she was upset, she still went to get it.

 

However, Qin Shi smiled and stopped, “Don't bother, we are going to leave soon.”

 

Lu Zetian also chimed in, saying: “I was going to bring my son to apologize today, but I didn't expect him to feel uncomfortable.
Only the two of us came.”

 

Zhao Jianjun didn't know why, “Apologize? What apology?”

 

Lu Zetian sighed: “Xiao Hai and your family's Haoran had a fight at school in the afternoon.
I'm not strict in discipline.
I'm saying sorry on behalf, Brother Zhao.”

 

Zhao Jianjun then understood who caused his son's injury.
However, Lu Zetian sent him a big gift.
The child was not a big deal.
Zhao Jianjun waved casually.

 

“There's no need for this, It's alright! It's normal for children to fight and make noise, They are boys!”

 

Qin Shi and Lu Zetian looked at each other and said nothing.
When Zhao Jianjun looked at it, he realized that it was not so simple, so he smiled and looked at Lu Zetian: “Don't beat around the bush, brother.
Just say what you want.”

 

Lu Zetian responded and told him the afternoon in detail, including what Zhao Haoran said about Qin Shi and how he threatened Gu Qinghai.

 

Zhao Jianjun's face was as black as the bottom of the pot, and Liu Cui, who was beside him, looked at his expression and straightened up in fear.

 

After Lu Zetian said this, he added: “This matter is actually really vile.
You know Xiao Hai's identity, this is really not good.”

 

“And about my wife…
sigh.” Lu Zetian sighed, said nothing more, and got up to say goodbye.

 

Zhao Jianjun couldn't squeeze out a smile.
He could only send them out with a stiff face.
After they left, Zhao Jianjun closed the door, untied his belt and walked into the bedroom.

 

When Liu Cui saw his posture, she knew he was really angry.
She could not take into account her guilt and fear.
She immediately stopped him, “Don't do it, don't do it, just scold him!”

 

Zhao Jianjun has a lot of strength.
If he really draws out his belt, Zhao Haoran won't be able to stand it.

 

Zhao Jianjun pushed Liu Cui away and glared at her angrily: “How dare you stop me! You think I don't know that these words were learned from you!”

 

“You've totally disgraced me! I'll break your mouth! You just never listen! How many times have I been criticized because of your broken mouth? How many outstanding awards have I lost? Ah!”

 

Zhao Jianjun, with a grim face, looked at Liu Cui and said in a cold voice, “Tomorrow you will come to apologize with me, and then go back to your mother's house.
I will call my mother to take care of Haoran.”

 

Liu Cui panicked and cried, “What are you doing? What do you want to do? You want to drive me away! You want to divorce? I gave you a son.
Are you not accounting for my merit and hard work!”

 

“Shut up!” Zhao Jianjun roared, and Liu Cui choked off her crying.

 

“If it hadn't been for Haoran, I would have divorced you a few years ago! Who would have thought that you were still not good at learning, gossiping about others every day, chewing on your tongue behind your back.
Others would have laughed at me, but your son was led astray by you!”

 

Zhao Jianjun looked red, pointed at Liu Cui and said, “Please stay home and reflect! If I happen to know that you came back secretly when I was on duty, we will really divorce.”

 

Liu Cui saw that he was so angry and couldn't be calmed down.
Knowing that he was really determined, she immediately dared not make any more noise and burst into tears.

 

Zhao Jianjun didn't look at her, and went into the bedroom with a belt.
Zhao Haoran was so scared when he heard everything.
He didn't dare to hide it any more and told everything.

 

When Zhao Jianjun learned that the matter was really like what Lu Zetian said, that his son really said those malicious words, his angry brain was dizzy.

 

He didn't say anything.
He held Zhao Haoran down and spanked hard, he did not give up until he saw blood on his butt.

 

Zhao Jianjun watched his son, who was lying on the bed with tears on his face and could not speak, he started to be tearful immediately after.

 

“I have neglected you, I should be punished.”

 

“Tomorrow I will call for your grandmother, and you will recuperate at home during this time.
Please stay home and think about your wrongs.
I hope that I can see that you repented when I come back from my task.”

 

Zhao Haoran looked at his father, who was crying at himself and full of guilt and heartache, completely because of beating him.

 

He buried his head in the pillow and cried loudly.

 

Zhao Jianjun looked at his trembling son and felt as if his heart was going to crack.
He touched his face, picked him up directly, and opened the door to go to the clinic.

 

When the bedroom door opened, Liu Cui collapsed at the door and cried out of breath.
Zhao Jianjun just glanced at her lightly, and then walked out with Zhao Haoran in his arms.

 

Liu Cui looked at her son's bloody buttocks, and her tears were even more fierce.
She stretched out her hand and slapped her mouth hard, and soon her face became red and swollen.

 

This time, she really etched it into her memory.
She will never dare to gossip, break her mouth, or chew people's tongues behind her back again.

 

The author has something to say:
I cried while writing this chapter, and remembered when my father took a broom to beat me when I was a child.
It was really painful.
It took two days to heal after being beaten!

 

In the past, it was really a stick education.
No matter what happens to you, give it a beating first_ (: з」∠)_ I envy the children now…
their childhood is beautiful.

 

My childhood toys: marbles, sandbags, sheep bones, rubber bands, various cards…..

 

The childhood of today's children: smart phones, tablets, computers, amusement parks….

 

I am full of envy!! Huhu

I remember feeling so heartbroken with this chapter because of the corporal punishment; no matter what violence is never the answer especially when the child learned from his mother.
