Chapter 447
"Mom, let me explain..."
The child chased after his mother, tugging at her clothes with his red, frozen hands, and whined in defense, "I wanted to make a snowman like my mother. I didn't mean to play with the snow secretly."
"Mom, please don't ignore me~"
"Mom, please stop for a moment. I can't keep up with you."
"Mother……"
Yunmian's coquettish voice followed from the bedroom to the bathroom, until her mother held her little hand and soaked it in warm water.
The child, who didn't feel cold just now, shivered all of a sudden, bent his fingers and splashed in the water twice, but most of his body was already in his mother's arms.
She tilted her little face up and rubbed her mother's cheek flatteringly: "Mom, don't be angry! A mother who is not angry is the best mother in the world!"
Yun Jinyi thought for a moment: "So, if I'm angry I'm not the best mother in the world?"
Yunmian puffed up her cheeks and said, "Mom, adults can't be angry with children, otherwise I will secretly have nightmares at night and then be scared and cry."
It was something that clearly had not happened, but Yun Mianmian acted as if it had happened.
Yun Jinyi laughed, put her hand into the warm water, held her daughter's hand and rubbed it gently, and only let the restless child go when it was almost done.
"Mom, will this uncle light ball turn into a human?" Yun Mian took advantage of Yun Kong's inattention and caught it.
Yunkong was always off guard against her, so she would quickly succeed every time.
Yun Jinyi held her daughter's other hand and walked her out, answering, "It won't become a human, at least not in this world."
Yunmian didn't delve into the deeper meaning of her mother's words.
She shook the ball of light in her hand, leaned in close and said to it, "So, uncle, are you very powerful?"
Yunkong proudly straightened his nonexistent waist: "Of course I am powerful, otherwise how could I bind you?"
Although Yunmian has been led to win easily most of the time, no one can say that the system is really useless since he has come this far.
Yun Mian's eyes widened in surprise, and she asked with a little expectation: "Uncle, can you accompany me to that world and help me beat up Zhao Xiaoli's brothers who made her cry?"
The light on the proud ball of light suddenly stopped, and then, in Yunmian's expectant and sparkling eyes, the whole ball lay flat and pretended to be dead: "Mianmian, you should do it yourself. I don't think I can do it. The General Administration has regulations that our system does not allow people to be harmed at will."
After getting a negative answer, Yun Mian was not disappointed, but even more eager to try: "Uncle, do you really think I can do it? What if I beat them and make them cry, and they go back to their parents? If their parents come to bully my mother, I am so young, I will definitely not be able to beat them."
As the little girl spoke, she shook her thin wrist that was held by her mother. With a girl like her, she could beat ten adults at once without taking a breath.
Yunkong: “…”
I'm just saying, don't take it seriously!
But Yunmian didn't understand its perfunctory literature. After Yunkong pretended to be dead and didn't answer, she immediately shifted her target and asked her mother the same question.
Yun Jinyi: “…”
She looked at Yunkong with a slightly dangerous gaze, wanting to know what messy things it had secretly taught Mianmian just now.
Yunkong felt that he was just as wronged as Dou E, but he could not say anything to defend himself because the mean-spirited children deliberately restricted his ability to communicate with the outside world.
Yunkong tried hard for a while, but in the end he could only hold his breath and pretend to be dead again. This time he didn't even want to emit light.
Yunmian did not become a complete bad kid. When her mother looked at the ball of light, she deliberately hid the ball behind her back and smiled at her mother with her innocent little face curved.
Yun Jinyi gently pinched her daughter's cheek and did not answer her question. Instead, she changed the subject and talked about taking Mianmian out to play.
"But I can only stay with my mother for three days~" Yunmian raised her little hand and waved three fingers in front of her mother's eyes. She was so well-behaved.
Yun Jinyi raised her hand and held her daughter's fingers, saying softly, "Even if it's only three days, Mianmian wants to go wherever she wants and do whatever she wants, mom is willing to accompany you, so think about it again?"
Since her mother said so, Yunmian could only lie in her mother's arms and think hard.
In fact, she had no idea about this completely different world her mother talked about. At the age of 5, she had never even left Zhaojiagou, let alone see a bigger world.
So after thinking hard for several minutes, she reached out and hugged her mother's waist and abdomen, and said softly: "Mom, can you take me to school? I want to go to school, but the winter is so long and the spring never comes..."
Yunmian felt that the winters she encountered seemed very long. She didn’t know that her mother would die in a certain winter. She just hoped to go to school and study, and as her mother said, she would have the opportunity to get out of that closed mountain valley in the future.
"Mom, why can only boys go to school?"
"Mom, Zhao Xiaoli said her brothers all know how to write their own names, and I want to write mom's and my names, too."
"Mom, those boys are so annoying. Every time we go to school to play, they chase us away and even accuse us of running into school and stealing their things."
"Mom, are only boys allowed to study in the schools here? Will we be kicked out too?"
On the way to the nearby elementary school, Yun Mian twisted and turned uneasily in her seat. Sometimes she would stand up and pull the seat in front of her to get closer to talk to Yun Jinyi who was driving.
Perhaps it was because on the way out, all she saw was a scene that was completely different from Zhaojiagou: tall buildings, steel bars and concrete, and even the trees on the roadside seemed taller and straighter than the crooked trees on the roadside in Zhaojiagou.
Everything she saw had nothing to do with the Zhaojiagou in Yunmian's memory.
If I have to point out the similarities... it would probably be that whether in Zhaojiagou or here, the people coming and going on the road are all people, and they all have two eyes, a nose and a mouth.
Apart from this, Yunmian didn't feel anything familiar or similar here.
So she asked many questions along the way, as if by talking more and asking more questions, she could gain more peace of mind and courage from her mother's answers.
The child was not the type to show her timidity or anxiety, so even though she asked a lot of questions, no one could tell from the outsiders that she was nervous or fearful, except for Yun Jinyi and Yun Kong, who had accompanied Yun Mian through countless worlds.
Even when she got off the car and was led by her mother to the primary school gate to register, Yunmian still mustered up the courage to communicate openly with the security guard who was inquiring about her, and received a series of compliments from the other party.
The primary school was not on holiday yet. After explaining the purpose of the visit and taking out his ID to go through various registration procedures, Yun Jinyi successfully brought his curious daughter into this ordinary primary school which was not special at all.
This primary school is not affiliated with a famous school, nor is it a well-known primary school that parents flock to for its excellent teaching staff and amazing admission rate. It is just an ordinary public school that follows the nine-year compulsory education.
But in the eyes of Yunmian, who had just arrived, it seemed as if it was rimmed with dazzling gold by the winter sun, making it so dazzling and yet so out of reach.
Yunmian whispered to her mother how big the school was. She always couldn't help but stop to listen to the neat sounds of reading coming from the classrooms, and looked up at the bright red flags fluttering high in the wind on the playground.
Even the old recreational facilities in the corner of the playground looked brand new in Yun Mian's eyes, and she was so cautious when she reached out to touch them.
"Mom, this world is so wonderful." Yunmian sat on the green lawn in the playground, leaning her body on her mother's shoulder, looking with longing and envy at the children who were having physical education class not far away.
This world is so wonderful. The primary school is bigger than half of Zhaojiagou and much bigger than the only primary school in the village.
Moreover, the school had high walls outside and brightly colored paintings on the walls inside. It was completely different from the primary school in Zhaojiagou where they could sneak in to play.
What’s more, every kid here wears the same school uniform, which makes them look really cool!
Yun Mian couldn't help but imagine herself wearing the same school uniform and walking among them, and then she smiled to herself.
If that happens, my mother will definitely not be able to find me among so many children wearing the same school uniform!
The top of my head was gently pressed down by a warm palm, and my mother's gentle voice rang in my ears: "If Mianmian likes, we can take classes here for a few days."
She could ask the school to get a temporary study permit for just two or three days, which would not be difficult to do just to experience the school atmosphere.
As soon as she finished speaking, the child turned around and hugged her tightly.
"Mom, is it really possible?!" Puppy Mian came up to her eagerly, looking at her with bright eyes. Although she hadn't received a positive answer yet, the corners of her mouth were already rising with joy.
Yun Jinyi was amused by her daughter's eager expression. She couldn't tease her on purpose when the child was so full of longing, so she smiled and nodded: "Of course, but has Mianmian thought about it? If you go to school here, you can only see me after school every day. Mianmian has to get up early during the day to go to school. Is that okay?"
Yun Mian hesitated for a moment.
She puffed up her face in confusion, then leaned close to her mother's ear and whispered, "Mom, can't you leave me?"
Yun Jinyi and Yun Kong were both surprised at how the child came to such a strange conclusion.
Then the kid put his hands on his hips with a cocky look on his face and said confidently: "I know everything, mom you are the clingy one. In the past, you would get angry when I went out to play for a long time. But this time is different. This time I have to go to school to study, mom you can't be so clingy anymore~"
A clingy mother can really give children a headache.
Little Yun Mianmian has experienced this kind of sweet distress since she was young, so now she hugs her mother and coaxes her very experiencedly.
"Don't worry, Mom. I won't love studying more than loving you!" She said this with great force.
Yun Jinyi: “…”
For a moment, as a mother, I didn’t know whether I should be moved by this.
She held her forehead with her hands, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. In the face of her daughter's solemn promise, she sighed helplessly: "Mianmian, Mom doesn't mind if you study more."
Not just one point, even if it’s many, many points, it doesn’t matter.
But Yunmian felt that her mother was speaking reluctantly, otherwise why would she be smiling with gritted teeth?
The child rolled his eyes smartly, leaned over to his mother's cheek and gave her a loud kiss, then held her face and said obediently, "Don't worry, mom, I won't forget you at school, and I will think about you a lot while studying."
So mom, please don't be reluctant because I have to go to school. Your smile has become a little uglier.
The child, who had no idea that danger was approaching, was very confident at this moment that he was so smart that he would be able to perfectly balance two equally important things: studying and missing his mother.
Until she was taken by the hand by her mother, who was smiling a little uncomfortably, and handed over to a teacher who looked very serious.
Yunmian was led by the teacher to the temporary class, looking back at her mother every few steps as she walked.
Why doesn't mom leave?
Won’t she come and see me off?
Aren't you secretly watching me outside the classroom?
Mom... doesn’t love me anymore QAQ.
When she reached the corner of the corridor and could no longer see her mother behind her, Yun Mian pursed her lips silently and felt like crying.
But she still held back.
Because the light ball uncle named Yunkong caught up with her and said he wanted to accompany her to school.
"What about my mother?" Yun Mian sniffed and asked in a low voice, "She can't see me, is she crying secretly? How about you go back and comfort my mother for me, uncle?"
Yunkong: “…”
After a moment of silence, Yunkong spoke the truth: "Mianmian, you think too much. Not only is your mother not crying, she has already walked out of the school. She will not come to pick you up home until you get out of school in the afternoon."
So there is no such thing as reluctance or crying secretly.
Yun Mian's tears burst out in an instant.
The child felt a little aggrieved for being abandoned by her mother, and wanted to run back and ask her mother why she wasn't sad, but she also wanted to go to school very much.
Countless times outside the school, Yun Mian secretly envied the boys in the village who ran into school with their schoolbags on their backs and laughed. Yun Mian didn't know how long she had envied them. She was so envious that she wanted to go back to her mother's womb and be born again as a boy.
Now in this strange world, I finally have the opportunity to go to school and the classroom, sit in the classroom and listen to the teacher's lectures like all the other children...
Yunmian was reluctant to give up such an opportunity just because of a little bit of grievance.
My mother would come to pick me up from school in the afternoon. She wouldn’t really abandon me, but if I left school, I might never be able to get back in.
So the child still raised the little hand that was not held by the teacher, secretly wiped away his tears, hid his anxiety and uneasiness, and bravely followed the teacher forward.
The old teacher, who had been secretly observing her, saw this and a hint of gentle relief flashed in his eyes. But when the child secretly raised his head and observed him in return, the old teacher's face became stern again, and he became the stern and strict teacher who would make even the most mischievous child in the class behave himself in a second.
When I walked into the classroom, the moment the teacher knocked on the door, all the noisy sounds in the classroom stopped.
The teacher who was teaching walked down from the podium and opened the door. After nodding to her, the old teacher took the newly arrived child to her and explained the situation, and then took Yunmian into the classroom.
The old teacher simply introduced the new classmate to the little ones. Since Yunmian was young, the old teacher also specifically instructed the class committee to take better care of the child.
After a few brief conversations, the bell for the end of get out of class rang at the right time.
The students in Class 1, Grade 1 cheered softly with excitement, but what happened was that the get out of class did not end. Instead, the math teacher who had just left walked back to the podium, picked up the chalk and continued with the previous lecture.
Yunmian sat on the cold, hard bench, her little hands placed neatly on the table, her body straight, but her eyes looked around curiously.
When she accidentally met a pair of eyes, she tilted her head in confusion, not understanding why the other person was so excited that half of his butt was off the bench, as if he was going to rush towards her in the next second.
Yunkong was also surprised at this time: "Why is the heroine here?!"
Shouldn't they be recording a show?
Is it some kind of destiny between the villain and the protagonist, so Yunmian and Jiangyao always meet? ?
When the math teacher finally threw down the chalk and uttered the words "get out of class dismissed" as if it were an imperial decree, the already extremely restless children in Class 1 were like cold water splashed into a frying pan, and the whole class instantly fell into a noisy boiling.
"Mianmian!!!" A clear voice powerfully penetrated all the noise, and a figure flew towards Yunmian.
Yun Mian subconsciously dodged backwards, but there were tables and chairs behind her. In panic, she simply retracted her head when the other party reached out to hug her, and squatted straight on the ground, successfully avoiding this passionate hug.
The other children in the class were already very curious about Yunmian, the new kid. When they saw Jiang Yao running over so enthusiastically, they all gathered around her, making Yunmianmian, who was squatting in the middle of the desk, look particularly weak, helpless and pitiful.
"Mianmian!" Jiang Yao didn't mind hugging Yunmian, but squatted down and asked Yunmian happily: "Why are you here? Are you well? Can you go to school? Will you be my classmate in the future?"
The series of questions were no less than the ones Yunmian had thrown to her mother before.
Yunmian was very confused.
She didn't remember meeting this kid before.
She has no memory of her previous body.
And Yunkong obviously didn't have time to explain for her.
So, under the watchful eyes of the public, the enthusiastic Jiang Yao only received a confused question from Yun Mianmian: "How do you know my name is Mianmian?"
Jiang Yao: “…”
She was stunned for a moment, and the smart brain that had just run away from home finally regained basic rationality and finally remembered Mianmian's situation.
She felt a little inexplicably melancholy, but it did not affect her enthusiasm for Mianmian.
So Jiang Yao still extended her hand to Mian Mian under her curious gaze and smiled widely: "Because the teacher introduced me just now! My name is Jiang Yao, and I like you very much, so Mian Mian, are you willing to be my good friend?"
Behind Jiang Yao, the other first-grade students who squatted in a circle for some unknown reason and witnessed the scene from the gaps between the table legs and stools also rushed to speak up.
"I like it too. Can you be my good friend too, Mianmian?"
"Jiang Yao, you are blocking me. How old are you, Mian Mian? I want to be your good friend, is that okay? I can even lend you my car to play with!"
"I can copy your homework for you!"
"I can help you look after the teacher!"
"I-I can go to the bathroom with you!!"
Yunmian's little face turned red.
Not shyly, but excitedly.
Is this what studying in school is like? There will be many children who will be my good friends, I will be surrounded by them and asked many questions, and I will also meet strange and powerful children like Jiang Yao?
Yun Mian stood up from behind the stool with Jiang Yao holding her hand.
"Mianmian, don't listen to them. You are not allowed to play with cars at any time in school, copy homework, or spy on the teacher. I can go to the bathroom with you."
Jiang Yao pulled Mianmian along, and amidst the unconvinced gazes, she refuted them one by one, then patted her squad leader's armband and said proudly, "I'm the squad leader, I can protect you, no one can bully you, and I can even take you to the cafeteria to get lunch later at noon."
The kids in Class 1 grumbled in dissatisfaction, but as the protagonist, Jiang Yao was an adult at heart, so it was no problem for her to crush a group of little brats. So she successfully occupied Yunmian's break time, and soon reached an achievement with Yunmian, who was a stranger to the school, that they became good friends, going to the bathroom together after class and having lunch together at noon.
When they were queuing for food, Jiang Yao told Yun Mian, who had learned a little bit about the situation from Yun Kong, why she was in this school.
"My mother has a job and her schedule conflicts. Plus, it was the production team's mistake in the beginning, so she has temporarily withdrawn from filming."
"As for me~" Jiang Yao shrugged and sighed like a little adult: "I can take care of myself well, and my mother has to earn money to support me, so I passed the exam and enrolled in school early. And I am a boarding student. I don't want to be picked up by my mother's assistant and face the cold air in the house!"
In fact, Jiang Yao had applied for early admission a long time ago, but luckily she got the result before her mother Jiang Xue went to start a new job. This is probably the protagonist's lucky physique.
Yun Mian listened to Jiang Yao mumbling that her mother had no time to accompany her after work, and she thought of her own mother while biting her chopsticks.
I wonder if my mother had the same delicious lunch.
I don’t know if my mother will miss me.
What if my mother misses me? Does she know that I am taking time to think about her seriously?
In fact, it was the first time that Yun Mianmian was away from her mother for such a long time and she really missed her mother a little at this time.
Jiang Yao was very keenly aware of the change in Mianmian's expression. After recalling the content of the previous conversation, she changed the subject with a little annoyance.
"Mianmian, are you going to go to school with me in the future?" She had not received an answer to the question she had asked Mianmian before.
Hearing this, Yun Mian nodded and then quickly shook her head.
Under Jiang Yao's puzzled gaze, the child still raised three fingers: "Mom said that I am only here to experience the study life, so I will only study for three days and then leave~"
Leaving here and leaving there probably mean the same thing.
Jiang Yao nodded in understanding. There were no cameras or audiences at this time, so she was finally able to quietly complain to Mianmian: "Time is too short. Every time you appear, you have different memories. Every time you forget about me, you will have to get to know me all over again next time."
Yun Mian tilted her head to look at her, and after a moment, she smiled and denied it: "Wrong, wrong, there won't be a next time."
Starting tomorrow, I will only update 3,000 words a day, and it may not be a stable daily update. There are too many things to do in my hometown. I don’t have the energy to stay up late these days orz…
