Qi Yunyi really rushed over and hugged Shangguan Yan's thighs tightly.

Shangguan Yan had now gotten rid of the weight on her body, and she felt instantly relaxed.

She bent down and tried to hug Qi Yunyi again, but the result was predictable. A rookie like her couldn't pick up the almost nine-year-old girl like Comrade Qi did.

Shangguan Yan looked embarrassed and let go of the hand that was trying to hug Qi Yunyi.

After interacting with Qi Yunyi, Shangguan Yan finally remembered her cubs. She called them over and introduced them to Qi Yunyi: "These are my son and daughter, Xu Zhiran and Xu Zhiqing."

"Brother Zhiran."

Qi Yunyi smiled and said, "I really wasn't laughing at you just now because I saw your pig head, but I like you from the bottom of my heart, so I smiled so brightly and enthusiastically."

There was no expression on Xu Zhiran's face. His eyes were almost swollen into slits and he couldn't make any expression.

"Sister Qingqing."

Xu Zhiqing smiled, revealing a row of shining little teeth, and then she replied softly, "Sister."

At home, Xu Baozhu is called "Xu Baozhu" every day. She calls her "Sister Baozhu" simply because her mother asks her to be polite. Xu Zhiqing, who actually makes Xu Baozhu angry a lot at other times, looks particularly well-behaved now.

She was originally a cute little girl as delicate as a New Year picture doll, but her face was swollen.

Shangguan Yan held her face in her hands, willing to call this meeting a destined encounter.

Just as this thought flashed through her mind, Shangguan Yan tilted her head and saw her son's pig-headed face: ...

Cao Cui, why did you bring the baby here?

If Xu Zhiran knew what she was thinking, he would be speechless.

Unfortunately, Xu Zhiran didn’t know, and it was hard to tell any expression from his face.

Shangguan Yan prefers to play with children and is the one who chooses to sit at the children's table.

However, she had to settle the bill with others for the dishes she brought, as this involved money, so she couldn't be careless.

After that, she was asked to help with translation.

The translator was paid extra so that she wouldn't help for free.

The remuneration is quite good, and it is not easy to find a translator.

What's more, he is an excellent person in both listening and reading, as if he is a native foreigner.

As for her two cubs, Qi Yunyi patted her chest and said, "Leave them to her."

Qi Yunyi, who took on this task, called Zhiran "Brother" all the time and took the two children to find the little friend he had just avoided.

"Brother Zhiran, are you thirsty?"

"Brother Zhiran, are you tired?"

"Brother Zhiran, are you hungry?"

“…”

The whole room was filled with Qi Yunyi's warm voice asking about Xu Zhiran's well-being.

Hearing this enthusiasm, Song Mingzhu's face lost its adorable, soft and gentle expression, and she looked at the Xu Zhiran brother and sister who suddenly appeared with a somewhat cold expression.

Xiao Chong also heard the pen stop drawing and turned to look at the person who was treated so warmly by his sister.

Song Xinglan was reading a book. Compared with Qi Yunyi, who had hardly grown and was as tall as a short carrot, Song Xinglan had grown a lot taller, and his original chubby figure was long gone.

Now, no matter how you look at him, he looks like a tall and straight young poplar growing proudly.

The baby fat on his face was fading, and he had lost a lot of the cuteness of a child and had gained a bit of boyish childishness.

Although he is not as outstanding as Liang Sijia, he is definitely not the shorty in the class.

The short carrot-head girl was forced to sit in the first row because she was the shortest one in the class.

Well, there was no way to refute it at all, because she was indeed short, and she couldn't see the blackboard when sitting at the back, she could only see the back of the head of the person sitting in front of her.

Suddenly being stared at by three pairs of eyes, none of which held any kindness, Xu Zhiran: ...

He still showed no expression. After all, he was a big boy, already eleven years old. How could he bother with these short guys?

Besides, he couldn't make any expression at the moment.

Therefore, the children who felt that their friends were taken away saw Xu Zhiran who was very calm and composed, as if he had already been used to it.

When they met for the first time, Xu Zhiran left a very bad image and impression on everyone.

The image is that of a pig head with eyes that can hardly open. The impression is that this guy is arrogant and even snatches Job's tears from them. They don't like it at all.

His attitude towards Xu Zhiqing was quite okay. As a chatterbox and the youngest one, this child spoke clearly, but his walking was still not very steady, after all, he was only two years old.

A little kid who can't even walk steadily walks to your side staggeringly, has to hold your hand to stand steadily, and then keeps calling you sister and brother.

Even though her mouth and one eye were swollen, no one could feel any ill will towards her.

It was the first time for Xiao Chong to be a sister, and she looked visibly at a loss when being called sister.

The next moment, she lowered her head and searched her body for something, and finally found two candies in her pocket. One was chocolate, given by her master's wife, and the other was White Rabbit milk candy, given by her sister.

Chocolate tastes better, she likes it more, and it is more expensive, but the White Rabbit chocolate was given to her by her sister.

Xiao Chong paused for less than a second, then handed the chocolate over decisively.

Qi Yunyi doesn't like chocolate, so she had brought some back specifically for Qi Yunyi before.

The old man, a master of Chinese painting, had just returned from abroad.

When the country was at its most chaotic, the old man was forcibly taken away by his own children. Once the country stabilized, the old man could no longer sit still and insisted on coming back.

His children had no choice but to contact people back home and send the old man back.

The old man doesn't have much else at home, and the new things that are only available abroad are not precious at all.

His wife also liked the child Xiao Chong very much, and felt like something was missing if she didn't put something in her pocket every day.

Xiao Chong brought a piece of chocolate that she thought was delicious to each of her cherished family members. Qi Aihua, as a mother, enjoyed it in the same batch as Qi Yunyi. The second batch was Jiang Mei and Qi Aiguo, the uncle and aunt.

Unfortunately, everyone said they didn’t like it, except Xiao Chong himself.

Qi Yunyi really doesn't like to eat it. She doesn't like sweets very much.

Even though the pastries made by Qiao Yueyue were not overly sweet and tasted just right, she never ate too much.

Being able to eat one or two pieces is already a result of Qiao Yueyue's excellent cooking skills. If it wasn't made by Qiao Yueyue, she wouldn't eat a single piece.

Unless I am hungry, I will eat a piece if I am hungry, but I won’t touch any of it if I am not hungry.

Xiao Chong was very generous. She handed the chocolate to Xu Zhiqing. She was afraid that her sister, who was still a little shaky when she walked but was very good at talking and calling people, would not be able to open the package, so she helped Xu Zhiqing open the package and fed it to her.
