Chapter 109: Ayu is never a problem

Ruoyu took Huanyue's hand and walked to the back garden.

I heard from the servants that Zhou Xu and her family went to the back garden to discuss something.

She showed up not too late and could hear the second half of their conversation.

The mother said that her stepfather had some problems with his business recently and wanted Zhou Xu to help.

Then I heard Ruo's father say to Zhou Xu: "Then I'll leave Haoyu's schooling to my good son-in-law."

Ruo's father would usually use this kind of flattering smile when asking someone to do something for him. This scene deeply hurt Ruoyu's eyes.

"It's my duty." Zhou Xu answered politely.

No wonder my parents, who had never spoken to each other for a long time, actually attended the joyous birthday party together. They were able to get along harmoniously throughout the whole process, with no one playing the bad guy.

She thought that the family full of wounds she had escaped would heal itself over the years.

Over the years, no one in her family has contacted her. Even after knowing that she married into a wealthy family, no one has ever asked her for a penny.

It turned out that Zhou Xu had been secretly helping her and carrying the burden for her.

How could she forget the pain of the past just because of the sudden warmth?

Ruoyu couldn't tell whether the warmth and tens of thousands of dollars her parents gave her today were out of cherishment, but she still remembered that when she was five years old, her mother went to work and she was alone at home cleaning up the mess made by her drunken father.

The glass shards from the wine bottle cut her little hands that had frostbite in winter, and pus mixed with blood flowed into her eyes.

The young Ruoyu didn't know anything and could only rely on breathing to keep warm.

She didn't want to cut her hands on the broken glass.

So she secretly vowed that one day she would leave this broken home.

But she has a bad memory and always forgets the vows she made.

When her mother came home from work, she saw Ruoyu's injured hand and quickly bandaged it. She also bought some frostbite cream for her hand.

At that moment, Ruoyu forgave everyone again.

I feel like this home is really nice.

But this injury was nothing to her parents. They never repented, quarreled and beat her, and let her go back and forth to various strange families.

Ruoyu finally realized and reacted.

I have never given you any love since you were a child, so how can I suddenly give you charity when you grow up?

People are all snobs.

Dark clouds covered the entire sky with gloom, and heavy snow fell slowly. Once the snow started in Changjing, there was no end.

Ruoyu stood there holding Huanyue's hand and watching the scene. Her nose felt sore and she found it a little funny.

Huanyu raised her head and asked, "Mommy, Haoyu Susui."

Ruoyu took a deep breath. She didn't want to cry in front of her child. She slowly raised her head and looked up at the sky. Cold snowflakes drifted into her eyes, melted into her tears, and suddenly slid down the corners of her eyes.

"Haoyu, he's grandpa's son."

"Is that my uncle?"

Ruoyu smiled, pinched her daughter's little cheeks and said nothing.

Huanyue saw the traces of tears on Ruoyu's face, her eyes blinked twice, and she threw herself into Ruoyu's arms: "Mommy, don't cry."

"Mommy didn't cry, it was the snow that fell on her face."

As she spoke, Ruoyu bent down and held Huanyue in her arms.

Zhou Xu caught a glimpse of Ruoyu hiding in the dark.

The snow had been getting heavier by the day, the cold wind carrying the shattered snow, leaving the entire world shrouded in a soft, hazy mist. Ruoyu, holding Huanyue, stood motionless not far away, looking at him with a forced smile.

The biting wind and frost blew on Zhou Xu's handsome face. Perhaps it was because the weather was too cold, and the cold wind mixed with frost and snow just now sobered him up a little.

His mind suddenly flashed back to the time five or six years ago when he and Ruoyu had just gotten married.

According to custom, he and Ruoyu will go back to her mother's home in Huihe for a few days.

Occasionally, he would be dragged over by Ruoyu's relatives to drink. In the difficult-to-understand Huihe dialect, he could clearly hear the relatives say how pitiful and difficult Ruoyu's childhood was.

The world became silent in Zhou Xu's eyes. He raised his hand slightly and waved to Ruoyu, who was holding the child and waiting for him quietly not far away.

Ruoyu is his wife.

He wants to protect her all her life.

It was his responsibility to help her deal with these difficult relatives and prevent her from being caught in a dilemma.

Nothing about A-Yu is ever a problem.

…

I don’t know what Ruoyu and Zhou Xu were talking about in private. After seeing off the guests, I saw Zhou Jibai casually handing the joy to him.

Anyway, Huanyu also likes her handsome and humorous second uncle and beautiful second aunt, and she is always smiling when she is with the couple.

Huanyu wanted to ride a big horse, so Zhou Jibai simply lifted her up and let her sit on his neck.

Zhou Jibai carried Huanyue like a chick, and Shi Huai broke out in a cold sweat when he saw this scene.

"Be careful!" Shi Huai said.

Zhou Jibai and Huanyu smiled at Shihuai at the same time, "It's okay."

Huanyu also followed suit, imitating Zhou Jibai's words: "No vegetarian!"

Shi Huai was amused by the big and small, and couldn't help but cover his belly, "Baby, don't look, don't imitate before you're pregnant."

"Tsk, without going through some storms, how can you be worthy of the name Jianqiang." Zhou Jibai deliberately mentioned the name Jianqiang.

Shi Huaihong felt cold. If she wasn't so heavy, she would have jumped up and kicked Zhou Jibai.

"Zhou Jibai!" Shi Huai clenched his fists and glared at Zhou Jibai fiercely, "If you really name your child this, we might as well just break up."

Zhou Jibai shut up.

Sitting on Zhou Jibai's head, he happily watched the fun and laughed twice, babbling, "That's all!"

Zhou Jibai's face was gloomy: "..."

"We have to live, live, and live on. How can I live without our Zhizhi Baoer?"

Shi Huai hummed, "Then swear."

Zhou Jibai raised his hands in joy, "I swear."

Joy said in a baby voice, "I'll spend four!"

"We will definitely not name our child Zhou Jianqiang."

There were too many words in this sentence for Huanyue to learn them all. She could only bite the last two words and say: "Be strong~!"

Shi Huai was slightly satisfied.

After playing with Huanyu for a while, when Zhou Jibai was about to put Huanyu down, Huanyu suddenly stopped moving.

The expression seems to be trying hard.

Zhou Jibai: "..."

Shi Huai seemed to realize that something was wrong and silently took two steps back.

Zhou Jibai: "Joy."

"Er Su." Huanyu felt a little guilty, and her baby voice sounded weak.

"Zhou, Huan, Yu!" Zhou Jibai, who had always been good-tempered towards Zhou Huanyu, was really angry this time.

He grasped the back of Joy's shirt with one hand, lifted her up with his long arms and stretched her out, away from him.

Xiao Huanyu could only look to Shi Huai for help.

Shi Huai stepped forward and said, "Put Huanyu down. She's not feeling well if you hold her like this."

Zhou Jibai closed his eyes, feeling a little desperate: "Oh."

She hummed happily and pouted, looking a little unhappy.

Isn't it just riding on his neck and peeing!

Why do you dislike her so much!

She's wearing a diaper, okay! ?

Second uncle is so bad!

Huan Yue reached out to Shi Huai again: "I want Second Aunt to hug me."

Shi Huai couldn't refuse such a soft and cute little girl and was ready to bend down to hug her.

Her belly was getting bigger day by day, and it was becoming inconvenient for her to bend over.

Zhou Jibai didn't let her hold Huanyu, and held Huanyu in his arms again, "Second uncle, hold her."

Huanyu got a little irritable and turned her head away: "Second uncle is bad!"

Zhou Jibai didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and rubbed her head randomly: "Why don't you think I'm bad for riding on my neck and peeing?"

Huanyue turned her head away, pretending not to understand.
