Ballistic Silence of Special Years

Chapter 689 Mother's Selfishness

"Wang Cheng, there is no more vinegar at home, go downstairs to buy a bottle of vinegar."

In the middle of the meal, Bai Xiufen brought out dumplings from the kitchen, and then asked Wang Cheng to go to the small supermarket downstairs to buy a bottle of vinegar.

"Mom... I'm eating vigorously..." Wang Cheng was happily nibbling on a pig's knuckle, and suddenly asked him to leave and go downstairs to buy something, of course he was unwilling.

“Dumplings without vinegar are not delicious!”

Bai Xiufen is not negotiable.

"Mom..." Wang Cheng wailed.

This is not an elevator building. It takes more than ten minutes to go down to the small supermarket at the entrance of the compound to buy and come back.

Wang Cheng is a young man who can't stand hunger, so why is he willing to leave the dinner table to eat now?

"Wang Cheng, I'll accompany you!"

Qiao Li stood up suddenly and pulled Wang Cheng.

"Your mother asked you to buy a bottle of vinegar and you are still talking about it, you are really spoiled!"

Wang Cheng first cast his gaze on Li Zheng, because Li Zheng was present, and he was afraid that he would put on the spoiled hat and be looked down upon by Instructor Li.

So he stood up, wiped his hands and said, "Leave me one of these pig's trotters, at least one."

Bai Xiufen said: "I'll keep it for you. I don't eat greasy food. Do you mean that Instructor Li ate it?"

Wang Cheng blushed immediately, turned around and opened the door with a smile, and went downstairs to buy vinegar with Qiao Li.

In fact, Li Zheng had already smelled something unusual.

There is absolutely no need for two people to go together to buy vinegar, Qiao Li took the initiative to go, which meant that Bai Xiufen had something to say to herself.

Li Zheng usually doesn't like to talk, but he knows better than anyone else.

"Auntie, do you have something to tell me? If so, please say so."

After Wang Cheng left, Li Zheng asked Bai Xiufen straight to the point.

Bai Xiufen was slightly taken aback, and then said gratefully: "Thank you, Instructor Li, for being honest. Well, if my Wang Cheng was half as sensible and steady as you, I wouldn't push him to get married."

Li Zheng smiled and said, "Didn't Auntie ask me to persuade him to get married quickly?"

Bai Xiufen shook her head: "No, I want you to persuade him to leave the SWAT team, I mean, you don't have to be a policeman, you can go to other leisure departments, I don't want to see him in the SWAT team Work."

This time it was Li Zheng's turn to be stunned.

"Aunt……"

He didn't know how to answer this question.

"Career choice is Wang Cheng's own private matter. I can't make a decision for him. What's more, I'm just a special instructor, not the leader of your city bureau."

"I know." Bai Xiufen said, "I've thought about this question a long time ago. In fact, I didn't say this casually, but after careful consideration. You have been here for the past few months. Every time Wang Cheng came back to eat, the topic I have never left you, my own son, I know that he has worshiped his father since he was a child, so he chose to be a policeman, and now he admires you very much. Although you are about the same age, he thinks you are very powerful and capable, so he respects you very much You, as long as you speak, I believe he will consider it."

Li Zheng's thoughts suddenly became confused.

He remembered what Qiao Li said before, that Bai Xiufen was very much in favor of inviting her back for dinner, saying that it was for a purpose.

It seems that this is the purpose.

He could hear what the old mother meant from Bai Xiufen's words.

To put it bluntly, I was worried about what danger my son would encounter when working in the SWAT team.

The missions of the special police team are all high-risk missions, and many times they are vicious cases, such as the previous hijacking case in the cloth market.

But as an outsider, I can't talk about this kind of private fact.

"Auntie, I really have no choice but no ability..."

Bai Xiufen said: "Instructor Li, you actually have, as long as you don't praise him in training, or even say that he has no shooting talent and is not suitable to be a sniper, it is more appropriate for him to leave the SWAT team, I believe he will accept it. "

Seeing that Li Zheng was silent, Bai Xiufen continued: "I know my request is too much, I am also very selfish, and I am very embarrassing for you, but..."

When he said this, tears suddenly welled up in the corner of his eyes.

"The child's father is gone, and his grandfather also died on the way to handle the case. Back then, I really didn't agree with him being admitted to the police academy, but the system took care of the martyrs, and the police academy was almost guaranteed, so the child rushed to go. I couldn't stop it back then, but now I'm worried every day and I've already regretted the situation, I'm a woman, I don't know what is righteous, I only want the safety of my child, when the police look at the scenery, but only I know the pain..."

"Although L city is a big city, you think it's quite safe, but it's not far from the border, and there are a lot of drug dealers there. The child's father used clues to hunt down drug dealers in the border city. What happened to you? Said that I no longer have a husband, if something happens to the child, how will you let me live..."

Li Zheng was in a mess.

On the one hand, he really felt that Bai Xiufen's request was too much.

Wang Cheng is actually very talented in shooting.

If you let yourself lie about this, it will violate your own principles of life.

On the other hand, others have the right to choose their favorite career for everyone, just like choosing to be a soldier, it is also because they want to do it, not because others think they should do it.

What's more, with Wang Cheng's character, it's so easy to persuade.

"Auntie, I think you should tell Wang Cheng directly about this matter, tell him what you think, and let him choose for himself. As a shooting instructor..."

When it arrived, he shook his head: "Forgive me for what I can do."

A look of disappointment appeared on Bai Xiufen's face. For a long time, the two sat facing each other without saying anything.

Li Zheng wanted to stand up and say goodbye more than once, to leave this awkward place.

Just out of politeness, it can't be done.

If you really want to leave, at least you have to wait for Wang Cheng to come back and say goodbye before leaving, otherwise the latter will definitely feel that something is wrong, and it would be bad to ask the bottom line.

In the end, it was Bai Xiufen who broke the silence first.

"I'm sorry, Instructor Li, I was presumptuous just now, look..."

She smiled wryly and looked at the food in front of her.

"Makes me feel like I'm cooking this meal for something else...I'm ashamed..."

"Auntie, it's normal for you to think this way. Many parents in the world have this kind of thinking, but everyone's approach is different. In the end, who doesn't want their children to be safe?"

Li Zheng comforts Bai Xiufen.

"Sometimes I wish I could have my mother by my side, but unfortunately...the son wants to support her but does not want to be loved. This is the biggest regret in my life..."

As soon as the words fell, there was a sound of opening the door.

Bai Xiufen quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and squeezed out a smile.

"Mom." Wang Cheng opened the door and shouted when he came in, "I bought some drinks by the way."

Qiao Li followed behind, looking meaningfully at Li Zheng, looking at Li Zheng and then at Bai Xiufen, as if she had already expected what would happen.

The second half of that meal was actually pretty embarrassing.

After Bai Xiufen made the request, the atmosphere changed a bit.

Li Zheng felt a little bit on pins and needles, but he stayed up until the end of dinner before getting up to leave.

Wang Cheng sent Li Zheng downstairs, and when he got there, he wanted to drive him. Li Zheng said that he could just go back by car, and there was no need to send him.

Before leaving, he had already walked out of the gate of the compound. Li Zheng turned his head and saw Wang Cheng still standing at the gate.

So after thinking about it, he went back and asked him, "Do you really like being a sniper?"

Wang Cheng was surprised why Li Zheng would ask himself such a question, but he still nodded subconsciously: "Well, I like it very much."

Li Zheng froze for a moment, then nodded: "That's good."

Wang Cheng felt strange, and asked: "Instructor, why do you suddenly ask such a question?"

Li Zheng said: "No, I just think your talent is not bad. I'm worried that you came to the training team with a playful mentality. If you don't like this job, you can go to another department."

Wang Cheng laughed when he heard this, and said: "Instructor, what are you kidding, I was finally transferred from other departments to the SWAT team, you don't know how many times I ran to the director's office with the cheek to enter the SWAT team, if it wasn't for my dad The reason is that the director probably doesn't bother to talk to me..."

Li Zheng suddenly felt a little relieved, and reached out to pat him on the shoulder: "That's good, work hard, be there on time next week, and I will teach you some unique skills..."
