Reborn As Lucky Star-Chapter 268 Ma Jinbao’s Suspicion

Ma Jinbao was feeling embarrassed and tried to pull his son up from the ground.

Suddenly hearing Yue Qingqing’s voice, he turned his head to glare at her fiercely.

But Yue Qingqing had a serious look on her face, her eyes comparing Ma Jinbao and his son’s faces without stopping.

"Isn’t it said that children will resemble their parents? But their eyes, noses, and mouths are all different."

Yue Xiaofang touched Qingqing’s head, "Who knows, Qingqing, don’t bother with such people. Come on, your aunt will take you back for dinner."

It took Ma Jinbao quite some effort to forcefully pick up his son; his own body was also covered in a lot of dust as he left dejectedly.

On the way back, Ma Jinbao’s mind involuntarily replayed what seemed to be Yue Qingqing’s innocent words.

They say children speak without restraint because their words are the most innocent and often the closest to the truth.

Ma Jinbao lowered his head to look at Ma Xiaobao.

The boy’s shirt was stained with oil from the elbow, his shoes were covered with yellow mud from who knows where, and vulgar words were grumbling from his mouth.

Needless to say, those swear words must have been picked up from Li Zhaodi and Pan Xiumei.

Ma Jinbao looked carefully at his son’s face.

Both he and Pan Xiumei had single eyelids, but their son had double eyelids.

Their noses were very flat, unlike his.

The shape of the mouth was somewhat square; this could possibly be like his mother’s.

In the past, some people joked, "Old Ma, your son doesn’t really look like you, does he?"

At that time, without waiting for Ma Jinbao’s reaction, Pan Xiumei and Li Zhaodi would rarely unite to scold back.

"Nonsense! This is my precious grandson, if he doesn’t look like him, who does he look like?"

"The child is still young; you can’t see anything. He’ll look like him when he grows up."

But when she spoke, was Pan Xiumei perhaps feeling guilty?

Many things are not usually given much thought, but when you really start to ponder, they’re suspicious at every turn.

Ma Xiaobao was not a full-term birth, Pan Xiumei said it was the experience from coming to Daye Village that resulted in premature birth.

But after the child was born, he was white and plump, heavier than the average full-term baby.

At that time, Ma Jinbao was complacent, thinking that his son had good nutrition and would definitely grow up strong, but now he found it strange.

"I want to eat pork knuckle, pork ribs, fried chicken legs!"

Ma Xiaobao started crying and screaming halfway home, his mind filled with the feast he just left. freeweɓnøvel~com

If it had been any other day, Ma Jinbao would certainly have tried to coax him, but today his face was wooden as he dragged the child’s wrist and walked on.

"It hurts!"

Spoiled from a young age, Ma Xiaobao was livid and lashed out at Ma Jinbao with punches and kicks.

Due to being over-nourished, Ma Xiaobao was fatter than other children his age, and his kicks carried more strength.

Suddenly, Ma Jinbao turned around and slapped him hard.

The boy stood in shock, and after a long moment, began to cry loudly.

"Shut up and behave yourself on the way home."

Children’s senses are often much sharper than those of adults.

Ma Xiaobao’s tears and snot were almost dripping into his mouth, but he didn’t dare to wail anymore.

Today, Dad’s attitude was very abnormal, and if he acted out as before, he was likely to get a severe beating.

And so, they returned home in silence.

As soon as they entered, Pan Xiumei’s sharp voice came.

"Look at you, Ma Jinbao, where have you been slinking off to, even taking my son with you, are you trying to rebel against the heavens?"

Suddenly, Ma Jinbao remembered that every time Pan Xiumei talked, she always referred to her son in a certain way.

This could be seen as a linguistic habit, but to a man who had already become suspicious, it was magnified.

"My dear grandson, what made you so dirty, come and wipe your face clean."

Li Zhaodi had also intended to scold her son, but seeing Ma Xiaobao’s condition, she felt pity first.

Ma Xiaobao found a backer and wailed loudly, "Grandma, Dad won’t let me eat, and he hit me!"

From the child’s intermittent narrative, Li Zhaodi and Pan Xiumei realized where Ma Jinbao had been that day, and both of their faces turned very ugly.
