Chapter 97 "Nurture, Innate" Part Two

My name is Han Dong and I am a small boss of a company.

I feel that I am the happiest person in the world because I have a beautiful and capable wife.

Although she was unable to have children due to some problems.

Let me tell you how I met her.

That year, I was 32 years old.

After experiencing some serious accidents, I started working hard for my career at the age of 27, and it took me five years to achieve a breakthrough in my company.

In one breath, it rose from the bottom of the industry to the top three in the industry.

At the shareholders' meeting, shareholders expressed that I needed to use some means to establish a good image of myself.

In the end, we discussed it for three hours and chose a nearby primary school.

I gave a speech at the morning meeting, and the content of the speech was extremely simple.

The general content is to let primary school children collect unused textbooks and extracurricular books, and then donate them to children in impoverished mountainous areas in the name of our company.

The moment the speech ended, I breathed a sigh of relief.

And just when I was about to turn around and leave, I saw Xiaoyue.

And that day, I used the excuse of inspecting the school.

It started from Xiaoyue's first class in the morning and followed her to her fourth class at noon.

She is actually an art teacher, and she really has a unique temperament that attracts me.

Until she found me and awkwardly invited me to eat in the cafeteria.

But we all seem to think differently.

Xiaoyue kept asking me why I thought of helping children in mountainous areas, which she appreciated very much.

And I could only use Poxialu to talk based on my shining point in her eyes. When I was about to leave, I finally couldn't help but ask her if she was single.

She nodded, and I continued to subconsciously express my request for dating.

But she started shaking her head, and from then on I became a regular visitor to this school.

In the name of inspecting the school, he shamelessly looked at Xiaoyue outside the window.

a week.

One month.

Little half a year.

When I have nothing to do, I will go to Xiaoyue's class.

She was so charming in class, and she finally couldn't bear my advances and agreed.

I think these kids deserve some credit.

"Teacher, teacher. That uncle is here again."

"Isn't that teacher your boyfriend?"

"Is he waiting for you, teacher, to finish class?"

. . . . . .

Xiaoyue agreed to my pursuit, but she said she would tell me one thing about her.

After that, let’s see if I want to pursue her.

That day in the coffee shop, Xiaoyue told her story.

My head was spinning when I heard it, but then I grabbed Xiaoyue's hand and said that it was not a problem.

Xiaoyue said that she is now 31 years old and an older woman whose marriage failed twice.

Moreover, she was unable to have children due to her two marriages. If my third suitor had a future with her.

Then I might not be able to have my own child in this life, which is why she refused to agree to it.

I was silent for almost a few seconds, smiling and saying that it wasn't a problem.

After all, I also have a drag bottle, but I didn't tell Xiaoyue.

There is a child beside me, the master's daughter.

Because the master was once kind to me, but both the master and his wife passed away.

I raised this child with a friend. I paid for it and my friend took care of it, so he was considered half of my child.

Of course these were small things and we got married three months later.

Although my parents strongly opposed this marriage.

But it can't stand my countermeasures at all.

I moved out of the house and cut off all phone calls from my parents.

Just pay money into their cards regularly every month.

I left the company phone number with my parents, and they would only transfer it to me unless there was an emergency.

And here Xiaoyue and I live in a new home, living a carefree life.

I only learned about the word DINK later, and I don’t think the word is particularly negative.

We were pretty much like any other family, except we didn't have kids.

The matter of not having children has been a knot in my mind for a while, but I will always enlighten myself.

Although the first half of life can be regarded as a congenital deficiency, the second half of life can be regarded as acquired perfection.

Xiaoyue is almost a good wife and mother, who works hard at housework and cooking without complaining.

She almost always cleans our house by herself, so the 40-year-old me suggested hiring a nanny.

Xiaoyue just smiled and said that she could still do hygiene for a few more years.

Of course every Chinese New Year is celebrated because my parents are dissatisfied with Xiaoyue.

We will all choose to visit Xiaoyue's parents.

But every time after visiting Xiaoyue's parents, she would ask me to give her three hours.

I never asked her where she was going because she always came home before twelve o'clock.

. . . . . .

I have seen all of this, and I know there must be many secrets in it.

But I know that I love Xiaoyue, and Xiaoyue loves me too.

that year.

I am 38 years old and she is 37 years old.

The moment she came out of her parents' house during the Chinese New Year.

Xiaoyue said: "I will come back as soon as I go. This should be the last time I go. I will accompany you for the next year, okay?"

I nodded my head and said, "Is this the last time? Can I follow you?"

I blurted it out at that time, and I was shocked after saying it.

After half a minute of silence, Xiaoyue nodded and said, "Then you can drive, Jiahui Jingyuan."

I was thinking about Jiahui Jingyuan, which seemed to be a wealthy area.

It was a bit more upscale than the place where Xiaoyue and I lived now, and I thought about whether the other party might be one of Xiaoyue's first two husbands.

I got into my car and Xiaoyue sat in the passenger seat.

My heart was shaken and numb, but I still drove to Jiahui Jingyuan.

Room 402, Xiaoyue knocked on the door.

And I was in front of Xiaoyue.The person who opened the door was a young man about 30 years old. He shouted to Xiaoyue: "Mom, is this?"

Xiaoyue smiled awkwardly and said, "My current husband."

The young man smiled awkwardly and said, "My name is Ike, and my seniority is a bit strange. How should I call you?"

I was silent at this scene before my eyes.The young man named Xiaoyue's mother in front of her is the secret that Xiaoyue has hidden for so many years.

I adjusted my mentality and said, "My name is Han Dong, just call me Lao Han."

Ike smiled and said: "Old Han, thank you for taking care of my mother for so many years."

My heart sank and I said, "It should be."

"Stop talking, Mom. You all come in, the new sofa I bought is great. Dinner will be ready soon, and you can eat it in half an hour." Ike said with a smile.

Xiaoyue took me inside.

Xiaoyue and I were sitting on the sofa.

At this time, my heart was in a mess, and I finally knew where Xiaoyue had gone for the three hours she disappeared every New Year.

I finally understand why this became a secret between us.

Ike, who is estimated to be around 30 years old at this time, is the reason for Xiaoyue's infertility now.

Xiaoyue said with a smile: "This sofa is very expensive, and it is a waste of money. You are not young anymore, it is time to save money and find a wife to live."

Ike smiled and said: "It's not expensive, it's just small money."

I calmed down my emotions and said with a smile: "So Ike, what do you do now?"

Ike smiled and said: "I painted in the early years, and then went to medical school. Now I am a plastic surgeon, and my income is pretty good."

Painting?I glanced at Xiaoyue.Sure enough, he inherited all Xiaoyue's advantages.

Xiaoyue said with a smile: "It's almost time for your brother to get off the plane. When everyone is here, I want to announce something."

elder brother?I was shocked.

These are actually twins.

"Xiaoyue, who is Ike's brother?" I said nervously.

"Didn't I have two rounds of failed marriages? The first round was with Ike's brother Jock. They are both my children, but their fathers are completely different. It is also because of these two children that after giving birth to Ike, I I can no longer have children. Both children were awarded to their father, but I got the names. I can't change their last names, so they all have a gram in their names." Xiaoyue said as tears seemed to fall down. .

The concept of half-father came into my mind.

I quickly grabbed Xiaoyue's hand and said, "It's okay."

Ike glanced aside and said, "Then you continue chatting, and I'll go see if the fish is cooked."

At this moment the doorbell rang.

Ike quickly opened the door.

Jock, who was wearing a police uniform, walked in. He froze when he saw me and said, "Who is this?"

Xiaoyue said: "Didn't I say that I have been remarried for a long time? This is my current husband."

Jiao Ke stretched out his hand to me and said, "The third-level chief superintendent of country C's overseas fugitive arrest team in country M, Jiao Ke."

"Superintendent? Xiaoyue, you have two sons. One is a plastic surgeon and the other is the chief superintendent?" I said in surprise.

Jock smiled and said: "This is not as good as our mother's genes. By the way, sir, what should I call you?"

I smiled helplessly: "My name is Han Dong, just call me Lao Han."

Ike smiled and said: "Brother, you know how to show off. You dare to wear uniforms all year round."

"As far as you know, you only see our mother once a year. If you don't show off to her, I will show off to you." Jock said with a smile.

Ike ran to the kitchen, and Jock sat on the sofa, picked up the fruit knife on the table, and peeled two apples.

I took the apple and felt indescribably warm in my heart.

Xiaoyue and I hadn't finished eating the apples Jiao Ke had peeled when Ike called us to eat.

In front of the round table, the family of four was enjoying themselves happily.

I had New Year's Eve dinner at Xiaoyue's parents' house before, and I remembered that Xiaoyue seemed to rarely use chopsticks at her parents' house every year.

It turned out that it was all to save the belly until this time.

The beer on the table was originally prepared for Ike and Jock, so I poured half a glass since I was half full.

Seeing me drinking, Ike smiled and asked us to stay one night before leaving tomorrow.

I was not polite and said with a smile: "Xiaoyue, if you knew this was the case, why didn't you tell me a few years ago?"

Xiaoyue lowered her head and said, "Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to accept it?"

I looked at Jock and Ike in front of me and said, "A chief superintendent and a plastic surgeon. Can I not be happy when I suddenly get two sons? What do you think, Xiaoyue?"

Ike and Jock seemed to understand that I had drunk too much and didn't say anything.

Xiaoyue said: "I actually want to say that this is the last time I come to see you. I may not be able to come here during the Chinese New Year. In the future, it will only be you two brothers. I owe Han Dong too much. In the future, Let’s use it all to make up for him.”

Ike and Jock frowned slightly when they heard this.

But I grabbed the words and said: "Of course you can't come here. Next time, go to my house. I'll cook and you all stay with me."

Jiao Ke was stunned for a few seconds and said: "Old Han, I know. You may have drunk too much now..."

Before Jock finished speaking, Ike held his shoulders.

I shook my head and said, "No, you don't understand. I'm really happy. Isn't Xiaoyue's son my son?"

I am a businessman, so this half glass of wine is nothing.

But in my heart, I really can’t say it without this wine.

There was almost silence, Jock picked up half the bottle of wine and drank it in one gulp.Tears kept falling, and then he raised his cup and said: "Old Han, my father is a bastard. I have paid for it all these years by myself. It was my mother who secretly funded me that made me what I am now. You take care of my mother so much For a long time, this time I called daddy."

Ike said with a cry: "My father is not a bastard, but he dumped my mother when he knew that she had been married once and had a child. My stepmother was also a sadist, and it was not easy for me to find my mother." You have taken care of my mother for so long, and now I am calling you daddy."

I smiled and said, "How about we get together again next year?"

Everyone burst into tears and laughed, and we drank almost all the wine in the house overnight.

Only then did I realize that Xiaoyue had been helping her two children for so many years.

Although both children were awarded to their fathers, they seemed to have little affection for their fathers.

And it seems that because of this, I became a father of two children on this day.

(postscript)
Early the next morning, I woke up and lay in my room.

Satsuki is by my side.

I stood up slowly without waking Xiaoyue.

In the hall, Ike and Jock were talking about something.

When they saw me, they all smiled and called me daddy.

Ike said to Jock: "Brother, after the New Year, I will inform you again, the one with four tear moles in a row on his left eye is the one."

Jock nodded and said, "I'll hang out for another year, and I'll try to be the police superintendent next time I come back. When this matter is over, you can find a hospital and do your best."

I sat on the other side of the sofa and said, "What? Are you two talking about business?"

Jock smiled and said, "Yes, Dad. Isn't Ike an expert in plastic surgery? This policeman arrests people to look at their faces. I need to ask him for advice in this regard."

Ike smiled and said: "Dad, the eldest brother just asked casually. I can help him with his ability to catch people."

The two of them burst into laughter, and even though I was confused, my mouth broke open.

"I haven't heard anyone call me daddy for half my life. Why don't you two call me daddy more often today?" I said with a smile.

"Dad." Jock Aike shouted in unison.
