“Ah Wu, look what else Dad bought for you?”
Seeing his daughter’s evasive gaze, Xie Changzheng felt even more bitter. However, he understood that the estrangement between him and his daughter over the past decade could not be made up overnight.
“There are candies and vanishing cream. Smell them. Isn’t it very fragrant? Apply this cream on your hands and face, and Ah Wu will become a sweet-smelling little girl.”
Xie Changzheng placed the things he bought from the supply and marketing cooperative on the bed where Ah Wu was lying. He still felt that he bought too little.
“Look at this red head flower, isn’t it…”
Xie Changzheng took out a beautiful hair flower and was about to put it in his daughter’s hand when he saw a large tuft of hair that had been shaved off on her head due to the debridement operation.
These shaved hairs can certainly grow out, but the wound that runs from the forehead to the back of the head is destined to leave a scar, and the hair in that patch may not grow out again.
For a girl, it must be uncomfortable to be left with such a long scar and part of the scalp is bald.
Xie Changzheng felt a little annoyed. It was obviously a mistake for him to buy such a red flower at this moment.
“F-for me?”
Ah Wu hadn’t looked in the mirror yet, so she naturally didn’t know about the hairy patch on her head. She just thought of the exquisite little ornaments in her Little Aunt’s jewelry box, which were the envy of her and her cousins.
Now she also had a red flower, which was given to her by her father.
Ah Wu was somewhat happy and could not help but stretch out her hand to take the red flower. But then she thought that perhaps in a few days, her grandmother would bring her aunts and the others to snatch the red flower from her, so she was not so eager to take it.
She knew that some things, once owned and then lost, were far more painful than never having them at all. (T/N: So true!)
“Well, this is for Daddy’s little Ah Wu.”
Xie Changzheng looked at his daughter who wanted it but didn’t dare to take it, and his heart became more and more bitter.
He reached out and held Ah Wu’s little hand and then put the red flower in her palm.
“Whatever Ah Wu wants in the future, as long as Dad can do it, I will give it to you.”
Xie Changzheng didn’t care whether he would spoil his daughter. He owed his daughter so much. In this life, he would rather spoil her than let her suffer any more grievances.
He would rather she be spoiled and willful and become a bad child in the eyes of others or would rather she be fierce and cunning and not be liked by anyone, but she would always be happy and live freely and ostentatiously.
He would create countless capital for his daughter so that she would have the qualifications to be willful and let everyone accommodate her.
“But, but…”
Ah Wu felt that the wound on her head was twitching, and she had a headache. She always felt that her parents seemed a little weird now.
“Ah Wu, do you like Daddy? After Ah Wu’s injury heals, you and Mom will move to where Daddy lives, okay?”
Without waiting for his daughter to finish her struggle, Xie Changzheng pretended to casually propose his plan.
Because he saved his calf, Xie Changzheng did not plan to follow the path of his previous life to transfer back to the local area and fight wits and courage with those so-called family members in his hometown.
Xie Changzheng understood that no matter how big a mistake his mother made, in the eyes of outsiders, she was still his mother after all, and Xie Changzheng could not really be cruel enough to kill her.
Once he demobilized and returned to his hometown, he would be close to those people, and he would inevitably face a mess.
He was not afraid of those people, but he was worried that his wife and daughter would be affected by them.
However, it was different in the military area. That was his territory, and the place where the troops were stationed was tens of thousands of miles away from his hometown.
Not to mention that his family members did not have the courage to take such a long train to find him, and even if those people went, they would not stay for long, so the impact could be controlled to the minimum.
