Chapter 219: Raising a Child 2
Jiang Yunyao brought her daughter back home and saw Xie Yixing sitting at the door with a resentful look in his eyes.
Jiang Yunyao glanced at the small stool he was sitting on. "What are you doing sitting here?"
"Waiting for you!" Xie Yixing stood up, picked up the stool, and muttered, "You're not at home, the house is empty!"
Jiang Yunyao put down the bag in her hand, turned around and teased him, "What about now? Is it still empty?"
Xie Yixing threw down his stool, stepped forward, put his arm around her waist, and said happily, "It's not empty anymore, it's full!"
A soft and cute voice interrupted the two of them, "Wow~"
Jiang and Xie looked over and found that their daughter was covering her eyes with her hands, and the gap between her little fingers was bigger than the crack in the door.
them:"……"
Little Lizhi pretended to cover her eyes, and looked at them curiously with her round eyes.
Even though Jiang Yunyao was thick-skinned, she couldn't stand being stared at like that - she always felt like a monkey in a zoo.
Jiang and Xie looked at each other and quickly separated.
Little Lizhi stood still, "Mom and Dad, Little Lizhi won't disturb you, you can continue!"
Jiang Yunyao seriously suspected that this little scoundrel was just watching them for fun!
The more Xiao Lizhi said this, the more dissatisfied Jiang Yunyao became. She turned around and went upstairs to wash up.
Xie Yixing had accidentally ignored his daughter just now, and now he felt a little embarrassed facing her alone.
He touched his nose and tried to change the subject, "What do you want to eat tonight?"
Little Lizhi did not answer the question, but stretched out two little fingers.
She blinked slyly, "Dad, Litchi is very well behaved and will never disturb you and Mom!"
Xie Yixing thought about the last time when she stretched out her finger and asked him if she could have one more ice cream cone.
The ice cream cones were made by the family pastry chef. They were smaller in size and specially made for Lizhi, so she was allowed to eat two a day.
But my wife said that our daughter likes to negotiate with others. If we allow her to eat two directly, she will ask for four in the future!
So the two of them discussed it and decided to tell her that she could only eat one, so that when she made her conditions, they would have room to compromise!
Last time, Xie Yixing agreed to her request, but he didn't explain it clearly. Then Xiao Lizhi changed the rules on her own and changed it to two a day!
If the pastry chef hadn't asked him one more question, he wouldn't have realized that he had been tricked by Xiao Lizhi!
This time Xie Yixing understood what she meant. He paid close attention and replied to her seriously.
"Two a day? No! You can eat two tomorrow, but after tomorrow, you can only eat one a day!"
Little Lizhi wasn't greedy either. He smiled and said in a baby voice, "Thank you, Daddy!"
Seeing his daughter being so well-behaved, Xie Yixing felt inexplicably guilty.
He subconsciously wanted to give in, but suddenly remembered the lesson from last time and quickly threw the idea out of his mind.
After taking a shower, Jiang Yunyao changed into casual clothes and came downstairs.
Little Lizhi ran over to her with a tablet in her arms, tilting her little head up to look at her.
"Mom, my brother said he'd take me to play online games tonight. Little Lizhi will stay with you tomorrow night, okay?"
The "brother" she was talking about was Song Xuanchen. The so-called "playing together" was a code word agreed upon by the brother and sister, which was actually to practice breaking through the firewall.
Jiang Yunyao understood her daughter. Although she was a cunning little girl, she would definitely do what she promised to do and rarely broke her promise.
Thinking about the father and daughter downstairs just now, they might have made some kind of deal.
Jiang Yunyao used her brain a little and guessed the content of the transaction between the father and daughter. She pretended to be ignorant and magnanimously forgave her breach of contract.
"Okay, go ahead!"
Little Lizhi was very happy, "Thank you, Mom!"
——
The next day, Jiang and Xie slept in a little longer as they had no work or invitations. By the time they got up and had breakfast, it was already ten o'clock in the morning.
Jiang Yunyao didn't see Xiao Lizhi, so she asked the nanny at home and found out that Xiao Lizhi's friends had come and the two children were in the garden.
On the other side, two little girls were sitting on a swing, and the stone table next to them was filled with biscuits and fruit plates.
Little Lizhi held her milk tea and listened to the little girl with a ponytail talking next to her, nodding from time to time to show that she understood.
He Sixuan stopped swinging, turned her head to look at Xiao Lizhi, lowered her voice, and looked mysterious.
"Did you hear? Bai Hao got beaten up by his father! He got beaten so badly! Just because he didn't do his homework!"
Little Lizhi thought about the two candies Bai Hao still owed her, so she asked, "Will he still come to school next week?"
"He probably won't be coming!" Five-year-old He Sixuan began to use her childish imagination. "He must be lying on the bed right now, with a really red bottom!"
Xiao Lizhi always believed what she saw, but since the classmates around her liked to talk nonsense and even the teacher didn't mind, she didn't refute her, but just nodded heavily.
He Sixuan is a chatterbox, but children of this age are impatient. Only Xiao Lizhi and Lu Yanxi are willing to listen to her finish her words.
Compared to Xiao Lizhi who could provide her with feedback, Lu Yanxi was like a cold stone, and He Sixuan didn't want to talk to him either.
Over time, she often came to find Xiao Lizhi.
After talking about Bai Hao, she started talking about the cartoon she watched yesterday, talking about whatever came to her mind, not realizing that the plot was incoherent at all.
Little Lizhi found it very interesting and would occasionally say a few words to prevent her from talking alone.
Around eleven o'clock, someone from the He family came to visit with gifts. After a brief greeting, they took He Sixuan away.
Little Lizhi returned to the villa and saw her parents sitting on the sofa in the living room, each holding a mobile phone. Familiar game sounds came from the phones.
She was used to it, so she ran to the kitchen to get a small piece of cake, sat next to Jiang Yunyao, and ate while watching their game.
Jiang Yunyao glanced at her and asked casually, "Is that little girl from the He family your friend?"
"Friend?" Little Lizhi tilted her head and thought for a moment, "Well, sort of!"
Jiang Yunyao almost didn't react. She was full of questions. "What do you mean by 'considered'? Don't you guys play together often?"
Before, she was busy filming outside, and when she called her daughter on video, she only asked about her daughter's recent situation.
Today, I heard from the He family that Xiao Lizhi and that girl have known each other for a year.
Starting half a year ago, the two children often get together to play every weekend.
It’s like this, can we just be considered friends?
Xiao Lizhi swallowed the cake in his mouth and explained seriously.
"She likes to tell stories, and I like to listen to her stories, so she often comes to see me!"
Jiang Yunyao: “…”
It turns out that she didn't treat him as a friend, but as a storyteller!
Xie Yixing missed the point, "Little Lizhi, do you like listening to stories?"
Little Lizhi said without hesitation, "I like it!"
Jiang Yunyao listened and felt that her tone was familiar. She had received gifts from her elders in the same tone before.
night.
Xiao Lizhi promised to stay with her mother yesterday, so she naturally slept in the master bedroom. Xie Yixing held the quilt and went to the guest room reluctantly.
Jiang Yunyao had just put on her facial mask when she heard a knock on the bedroom door.
Little Lizhi was originally sitting on the bed playing with a tablet. When she heard the sound, she looked towards the door.
Jiang Yunyao opened the door and saw Xie Yixing. He was holding a box with a cute little white rabbit pictured on it, with the words "Story Machine" written on it.
she:"……"
No, she thought he was sure that his daughter liked listening to stories, so he wanted to buy storybooks and tell stories to his daughter himself!
Xie Yixing took out the little rabbit story machine, handed it to Xiao Lizhi, and explained to her how to use it.
Finally, he asked, "Little Lychee, do you like it?"
Little Lizhi still said without hesitation, "I like it!"
Xie Yixing left with satisfaction.
Jiang Yunyao: “…”
She was too tired to complain.
