Chapter 329 (Catching Bugs)
"Mianmian, come and have dinner with Xiaomu." Yun Yuanzhe was washing his hands not far away, and at the same time called the two children who were whispering to each other to prepare for dinner.
"Here I come, grandpa~" Yun Mian jumped up, grabbed Cheng Mu's collar and pulled him back.
Cheng Mu was almost dragged by her and staggered, but he swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth, because he remembered that the child's behavior was badly taught by him...
Feeling a little guilty, Cheng Mu washed his hands obediently and sat down at the low table. After sitting for three seconds, he jumped up as if he felt the stool was burning his butt, and went to help the two elderly people who were busy at the stove serve the dishes.
Yun Mian sat down next to her mother. Instead of knocking the bowl with the small spoon in her hand, she used it to tap her mouth again and again, and her eyes followed the food brought by Cheng Mu.
Because Cheng Mu came home, grandpa bought some pork and made a dish that the children would find hard to refuse: fish-flavored eggplant and sweet and crispy sweet and crispy pork in pot. There were also stir-fried Chinese cabbage and boiled spiced edamame.
In Yunmian’s memory, such a sumptuous meal was only available during the Chinese New Year.
"Mom, let me help you shell the beans~" Yunmian happily showed her courtesy to her mother.
Yun Mujin tilted her head to listen to the noises of the family, followed the sound and looked towards Cheng Mu, and said softly, "Xiao Mu, thank you for helping to take care of Mian Mian during this period. Did she cause you any trouble?"
Even though he knew Yun Mujin couldn't see him, Cheng Mu put down his chopsticks first and answered her: "Aunt Yun, it's not hard for me. It's just something I did on my way. Mianmian... is pretty obedient."
The last few words are a little forced.
Everyone heard it.
Yun Mian looked at Cheng Mu in shock. She didn't expect that he would complain to his mother in this way!
You were not this kind of Cheng Mu before!
However, Cheng Mu, who was not stopped immediately, continued, "I didn't finish the buns in the morning, so I left two for Mian Mian. She put them in her school bag and brought them back in the afternoon."
Well, the two buns are on the dining table now. They have just been served and are still steaming.
"I went to deliver milk from school to Mian Mian at noon, and I saw a child being pressed to the ground and crying."
Well, he arrived just in time. He just watched the whole process of the kid being bullied coldly, treating it as fun. He had no intention of saying anything to stop it. He only appeared slowly after Yun Mian had finished saying the harsh words.
Cheng Mu paused, and as Yun Mujin and the two elders listened attentively, he paused before saying, "But when I went to pick up Mian Mian this afternoon, I heard some kids saying bad things about her and even gave her a nickname."
"What nickname?" Yun Mujin frowned.
Yun Mian finally found an opportunity to cover Cheng Mu's broken mouth.
"Stop talking! The teacher said we can't talk while eating!" Yun Mian glared at Cheng Mu fiercely, and used so much force with her hands that Cheng Mu almost choked.
"Mianmian, did they scold you? What nickname did they give you?" Yun Mujin turned his head and asked his daughter softly.
Yunmian: “…Nothing.”
Yun Mujin: "Mianmian."
"..." The child was a little depressed for once, pouting and whispering, "They just scolded me for not having a father, saying that my grandparents picked up trash every day, and called me a stinky kid."
There was a brief silence at the dinner table.
Yun Mian let go of Cheng Mu, lowered her head with a ferocious expression and hit him hard on the back of the head, causing him to gasp for air. He then covered the back of his head, grimaced, and was unable to speak, before he felt a little relieved.
"Mianmian, I will go with grandpa to talk to your teacher tomorrow."
Chen Fanghua realized that her granddaughter might not be having a good time in this school.
Yunmian shook her head in panic and ran over to hug her grandmother: "No, no! Don't go find the teacher!!"
Facing the puzzled gazes of her family, Yun Mian snapped her fingers guiltily: "I, I took the children in our class and beat them all until they cried... Later, their parents came to find the teacher, but the teacher didn't get angry with me. She even made those children apologize to me. Grandma, I'm very powerful!"
He felt guilty at first, but the more he spoke, the louder his voice became, and his chin was raised higher and higher, until he was almost proudly putting his hands on his hips.
The dinner table fell into silence again.
Cheng Mu tried his best to hold back his laughter and kept nodding to Grandma Chen: "She is right. When I picked her up from school this afternoon, the teacher told me not to teach Mianmian to fight anymore."
The school is also a small society, and Cheng Mu entered the school halfway through. In addition, his face is eye-catching, so he has actually fought a lot in school. But as his current guardian, does Zhou Xin dare to listen to the teacher and educate him well?
Chen Fanghua: “…”
Although the two children were more proud and arrogant than each other and seemed unaffected by the malice in the school, the old man had eaten more salt than rice, so how could he not see that the two little guys were actually very upset?
But she couldn't expose it. It was a protective layer that the two children had deliberately put on themselves, and she couldn't peel it off or tear it apart.
Yun Mujin did not expose her daughter's disappointment. She just pinched her increasingly round face and said softly, "Mianmian, if you are hurt, just cry. Don't be stubborn. Many people only sympathize with the weak."
Yun Mian nodded obediently, and then pulled Cheng Mu to nod as well.
This is the education from my mother. Listen carefully and keep it in mind. It will definitely come in handy in the future.
After finishing the meal, Cheng Mu left. Yun Mian helped her grandparents pack up the things they picked up today, but she suddenly moved her nose and sniffed around the room in confusion.
Noticing her movements, the system curiously asked: "Mianmian, what are you smelling?"
Yun Mian shook his head blankly, then sniffed hard again, and then tilted his head in confusion: "Uncle, I seem to smell a very strange smell, can you smell it?"
The system can't smell, of course, but it can collect and analyze the air.
System: "Let me smell it for you."
Just as it was collecting air, Yunmian was called away by her mother.
"Does your forehead hurt?" Yun Mujin raised his hand and gently touched his daughter's forehead.
The man who hit Cheng Mu just now probably didn't hold back his strength. She heard a loud noise, but they were just kids playing around at the time, and the force was mutual, so Cheng Mu was probably hit pretty hard.
Her personality was very measured but also aloof and difficult to approach, so Yun Mujin remained silent whether it was Cheng Mu or her daughter.
She had never even revealed her embarrassing side as a blind person in front of Cheng Mu or others, and her every move while eating seemed to be no different from that of a normal person.
Yun Mujin waited until Cheng Mu left before calling her daughter over. She then used her fingers to feel whether her forehead was red or swollen from the blow.
Yunmian had forgotten about it at first, but when her mother touched her lightly, she couldn't help but lean back in pain.
"Go to the nearby pharmacy with grandma and buy a plaster to apply later." Yun Mujin touched her daughter's cheek and taught her in a gentle voice: "Next time, whether you are really playing or fighting, Mianmian must remember to protect your own head and don't hurt other people's heads. Your children's heads are very fragile. If you are not careful, you will suffer serious injuries. Do you understand?"
Yunmian nodded slowly, digesting her mother's words as she nodded.
"After the ointment is used, Mianmian will bring it to Xiaomu tomorrow. No matter if he needs it or not, this is your kindness. He has taken good care of you during this period. Mianmian doesn't need to please him, but she should remember his care and return it when she has the chance in the future."
Yunmian covered her aching forehead with her hands. She didn't quite understand what her mother said, but she still nodded obediently and remembered every word her mother said carefully.
"Be good, Mianmian, go find grandma and ask her to take you to buy some ointment to apply on your head. Otherwise, it will be more swollen tomorrow and you will become a child with horns on your head." Yun Mujin held his daughter's face and blew on the place where she was hurt, then let his daughter leave.
Yunmian looked back every few steps as she went to look for her grandma.
She felt that her mother was a little strange just now.
But I really can’t tell what’s so strange about it.
When she turned around, she bumped into her grandmother. Yunmian tilted her head back to show her grandmother the place where she was hurt, and told her grandmother what her mother had just told her. Then her grandmother took her little hand and went to the nearby pharmacy to buy medicine.
"Auntie Chen, are you here to buy medicine again?" The clerk greeted her first, and then he saw Yun Mian, whose view was mostly blocked by the counter.
Seeing the redness and swelling on the child's forehead, she bent down to get the ointment, then handed it to Chen Fanghua with a smile: "This ointment is the cheapest in our store. Children are prone to bumps and bruises. Don't get it wet when applying it. Mianmian just bumped her head, it's not serious, just apply it again before going to bed and it will be fine."
Chen Fanghua paid the money with a smile, and when she came outside, she squatted down and applied ointment on Yunmian's forehead. The cool ointment made the child shiver, and he grabbed his grandmother's sleeve and dared not move.
"Don't be so naughty next time. Send this ointment to Xiaomu tomorrow and let him apply it. Otherwise, it will look ugly to have a bump on the back of his head."
Yunmian heard her grandmother saying the same things as her mother.
But this made my mother's mood just now seem even more strange.
Yun Mian was just about to tell the system uncle about the strange thing she had discovered, but when she looked up, she was shocked to find that there was nothing above her head, and the system uncle had not come out with her at all.
Inexplicably, there were more question marks above Yunmian’s head.
She returned home with her grandmother and found a ball of light emitting black light in the corner of her grandparents' room.
"Uncle? Why are you emitting black light? You asked me to smell it just now. Can you smell it?" Yun Mian poked it curiously.
The system moved along, but remained silent.
It’s not that it is not talkative by nature, but... it really doesn’t know how to talk to Mianmian for a moment.
It looked at the long list of complex chemical formulas on its system panel, as well as the things it had scanned and hidden in a cardboard box under the sink at the back of the shed, and remained silent despite its host's curious inquiries.
