Jin Nian was a very empathetic person. When she saw Lu Keke’s sad face, her heart ached too. “What’s wrong?” she asked gently.

Lu Keke started counting on his fingers. “I have to recite ancient poems in the morning, draw after breakfast, study math after lunch, and play the piano after lunch. I’m really tired.”

Jin Nian had never interfered with the child’s education. The family had hired a professional child-rearing teacher who specialized in one-on-one tutoring for children of Lu Keke’s age. Occasionally, Lu Xixi would learn from them, but she was still young, so the teacher did not ask her to learn. It was enough to just listen and see.

In addition, Lu An had gained experience in raising children over the past few years, so he had always been in charge of the children.

Jin Nian’s heart ached when she heard that Lu Keke’s day was packed and he didn’t even have a happy childhood. She didn’t expect her children to be outstanding. She just hoped that the two little guys could grow up healthily and happily.

The next second, Lu Keke threw himself into Jin Nian’s arms and cried. “Mommy, I want to watch cartoons. Can I just watch them for a while?”

Jin Nian, who had been feeling sorry for him, suddenly realized that she had been tricked by Lu Keke. She couldn’t help but smile. She picked up the little guy and said, “About that, I need to ask your father’s opinion.”

“No need,” Lu Keke said anxiously. “It’s just a small matter. There’s no need to alarm Daddy.”

What a joke. Daddy will really spank people.

Daddy would not only spank his butt, he would also spank his mother’s butt!

Lu Keke always remembered that one day, he and Lu Xixi were sleeping next to their parents when they vaguely heard their mother crying.

He didn’t have many chances to sleep with his parents. Every time, he had to beg his parents to agree.

It would be too crowded if Lu Keke and Lu Xixi both got into the big bed, so they put a small bed next to the big bed for the siblings to sleep on.

However, as he was sleeping, he suddenly heard a sound. When the little guy opened his eyes, he saw his mother’s back facing his father. His father was spanking his mother’s butt.

There was a smack. The expression on her mother’s face was very strange, and her hair was a little messy.

At that time, Lu Keke had burst into tears, and Jin Nian and Lu An had stopped in their tracks.

Only God knew how embarrassed Jin Nian at that moment. She quickly pulled the blanket over her head and pretended to be dead. She didn’t have the time to do anything, or else she really wouldn’t be able to face the child.

Lu Keke didn’t give up. He crawled over and hit Lu An with tears on his face. “Bad Daddy, bad Daddy, you hit Mommy!”

His crying alarmed Lu Xixi. The little girl opened her eyes and cried as well, instantly breaking the silence of the night.

Lu An had no choice but to bite the bullet and come up with an excuse. “You’re mistaken. Daddy is hitting the mosquitoes on Mommy’s body.”

Jin Nian immediately crawled out from under the blanket and echoed, “Yes! There are so many mosquitoes. Mommy’s body is red from the bites.” “Really?” Keke asked skeptically.

Jin Nian nodded. “Yes, yes. Baby, did you have a nightmare just now?”

“I dreamt that Mommy was crying,” said Lu Keke.

“Why would Mommy cry?” Jin Nian asked.

Keke started to doubt his life. Although he was young, he was already more than four years old. He didn’t believe his parents’ nonsense. Of course, he knew whether he had nightmares or not.

As the saying went, one should not wash one’s dirty linen in public. Of course, Lu Keke wouldn’t tell anyone about this, but Grandma wasn’t just anyone.

One day, when Grandma came home, Lu Keke took her hand and quietly went to the garden. He said mysteriously that he wanted to tell Grandma a secret. “What secret?” Xie He squatted down and asked with a smile.

“I saw Daddy spank Mommy’s butt,” Lu Keke whispered into Xie He’s ear. “They even lied to me and said there were mosquitoes. There are a few red spots on Mommy’s neck that were caused by Daddy!”

Xie He looked embarrassed after hearing this. She cleared her throat and said, “Don’t tell anyone about this secret. It’s fine if you and I keep it between us.”

“I know.” Keke nodded solemnly.

But Grandmother and Grandfather weren’t just anyone, were they?

Great-Grandma wasn’t anyone else, was she?

Uncle Lu Feng wasn’t just anyone!

Lu Keke’s small mouth was like a small sieve, and anything could leak out.

Lu An had always been in charge of Lu Keke’s education. The truth was not as bleak as Lu Keke had described.

Lu Keke wanted to memorize ancient poems, learn painting, play the piano, and learn arithmetic. Lu An had never forced him to do so.

Happy education had always been Lu An’s philosophy. Whatever Lu Keke wanted to learn depended on his hobbies. He had seen the children in the short videos who could draw and play the piano, and he insisted on learning them..
