Chapter 254 Convincing the Children
When Jia Zhang entered the room, she saw Banggeng playing with Xiaodang and Huaihua on the kang, with an innocent smile on his face. She was very satisfied with her grandson, and a doting smile appeared on her lips.
She walked over gently, sat on the kang, and quietly watched the children play, enjoying this rare warm time.
When Bang Geng saw Jia Zhang come in, he immediately stopped playing the game in his hands, turned around and walked towards her with a curious expression on his face: "Grandma, why did you come in?"
Jia Zhang reached out her hand and gently touched Bang Geng's hair, with a loving light in her eyes: "Bring the two sisters here, grandma wants to tell you something."
Bang Geng looked at Jia Zhang's serious yet smiling expression. Although he was a little confused, he knew it was not a big deal. So he turned around and walked to Xiao Dang and Huaihua, gently patting their shoulders and said, "Sisters, grandma is calling us over."
When Xiaodang and Huaihua heard Banggeng's words, they immediately stopped playing and curiously followed Banggeng to Jia Zhang's side. They sat down next to Banggeng, staring at Jia Zhang with their clear eyes curiously.
Jia Zhang looked at the three children sitting down, took a deep breath, and then slowly said: "Your mother is going to remarry."
This sentence was like a heavy bomb, which instantly exploded in the hearts of the three children. They looked at Jia Zhang with tears on their faces, and showed an expression of disbelief on their faces. Bang Geng even frowned, as if he didn't understand this decision.
Jia Zhang looked at the children's reactions and couldn't help but feel distressed. She knew that this decision was a huge change for the children, but she also understood that it was for the future of the whole family. She had to make the children understand and accept this fact.
So she quickly hugged Banggeng into her arms, gently stroked his head, and comforted him: "Don't cry, my dear grandson, your mother doesn't abandon you, she wants to take us with her to marry."
Bang Geng raised his head and looked at Jia Zhang with his big tearful eyes, which were full of confusion and worry. He asked:
"Grandma, can't you not get married? If Mom gets married and has children, she won't be so good to us." His voice trembled a little, and he was obviously afraid of the unknown future.
Jia Zhang looked at Bang Geng's worried face, reached out her hand distressedly, patted his head gently, and said lovingly, "Silly boy, don't worry, your mother won't have any more children. Grandma is here to take care of everything. Grandma will help you."
She paused and continued, "Besides, your mother is going to marry the factory manager, so when you reach the age of finding a job, you don't have to worry about it anymore."
"Now that we have money at home, you can eat better and wear better clothes. This is all for the good of our entire family, and your mother is also doing this for you to have a better future."
Jia Zhang's words eased Bang Geng's worries a little. He raised his head, looked at Jia Zhang with his bright eyes, and asked, "Is it true? Can you really give us money and find us a job?"
Jia Zhang looked at Bang Geng's expectant eyes and became more resolute in her heart. She nodded and said affirmatively:
"It's true. When has grandma ever lied to you? When the time comes, as long as you are sweet-mouthed and sensible, everything will be fine."
Then, she began to teach them how they should behave when they saw Director Yang. She explained in detail how to address Director Yang and how to show that they were sensible and well-behaved. Huaihua was still young, so she just needed to follow her older brothers and sisters.
Banggeng and Xiaodang listened carefully to Jia Zhang's teachings and nodded from time to time. They knew that this was for their future and they had to behave well.
Huaihua also snuggled up to Jia Zhang's side and listened to her grandmother's words. Although she didn't quite understand, she knew that it was for everyone's good. Looking at the three children's serious expressions, Jia Zhang couldn't help feeling relieved.
......
Liu Xiuxiu was lying on the bed, next to He Yuzhu, frowning slightly, with a little dissatisfaction and curiosity in her tone: "Brother Yuzhu, did you hear the voice over there? Chang'an was frightened just now. You said everything was fine before, why did Aunt Jia do this all of a sudden?"
He Yuzhu patted Liu Xiuxiu's back gently to comfort her, and then explained: "I'm not sure either, but it's for some purpose. Aunt Jia was like this in the early years, talking about these things every day. You don't have to take it too seriously, just ignore her."
Liu Xiuxiu turned over and faced He Yuzhu, her brows still furrowed. "It's just like the mourners in our village. The tone is exactly the same. It's just that there are fewer cases now because of the crackdown. The Jia family really doesn't shy away from it at all."
He Yuzhu sighed softly and stretched out his hand to smooth Liu Xiuxiu's frown. "The main reason is that the people in our courtyard are all elderly, and no one reported her, so she is a little unscrupulous. But it's okay, we just ignore her. Didn't you say you had an appointment to go shopping with someone early tomorrow? Go to bed early."
Liu Xiuxiu nodded, yawned, and said, "Yeah, I was about to fall asleep, but I was woken up by Aunt Jia's shout. Let's go to sleep." After that, she nestled in He Yuzhu's arms, closed her eyes, and her breathing gradually became steady.
He Yuzhu looked at Liu Xiuxiu in his arms, hugged her gently, felt her breath and body temperature, and gradually fell asleep.
