Chapter 96
"Dad, it's time for dinner." Xie Lecheng pulled his father into the yard and took the phone from his hand.
Little Song Yu also stood by the door and called his mother for dinner.
Yunmian followed behind her mother, sniffing the rich aroma of the food, swallowed her saliva, and kept saying all kinds of flattery and praise to her mother.
"Mom is awesome~"
"Thank you for your hard work, mom. You smell so good!"
"Mom, can I rub your shoulders for you later? I'm very strong, it will definitely feel good."
"Mother……"
The whole courtyard was filled with the children's soft compliments, which inexplicably made people hallucinate the scene in the anime where small pink bubbles kept popping out of the head.
Yun Mengjin felt a headache from being praised so much that she had no choice but to stuff a chopstick of vegetables into the little girl's mouth to fill it up. Finally, there was a brief moment of peace.
Yunmian puffed up her cheeks and smiled at her mother with curved eyes, then she climbed onto the bench and sat down, holding her chopsticks and waiting for others to come to the table.
Not only children like the food cooked by Yun Mengjin, adults like it too. Even Xie Yuan was a little surprised when he tasted Yun Mengjin's cooking at noon, not to mention the audience in front of the screen who can only watch but not smell or taste.
Yunmian sat next to her mother, clumsily using chopsticks to pick up food. She originally picked up a handful of fried eggs and wanted to put them into her mother's bowl, but then she thought of what happened in the morning, puffed up her cheeks, and ate the egg in one gulp.
Then he turned his head to look at his mother.
There was nothing in mom's bowl except half a cucumber and a boiled egg without a yolk.
Yun Mengjin noticed her daughter's gaze and asked her, "What do you want to eat? I'll help you get it."
Yun Mian shook his head, hesitated for a while, and then lowered his head to eat in silence.
She didn't want to make her mother angry anymore. She knew her mother ate so little because she wanted to lose weight, but her mother hadn't eaten anything all day...
Originally the food was very fragrant.
But Yunmian frowned as she ate.
Just when she was trying to muster up the courage to persuade her mother to eat something, Uncle Tangqi walked in from outside with a bad look on his face.
Everyone looked over there together.
But no one spoke first.
Like Yunmian, Tang Jiayuan lowered his head and took two quick mouthfuls of rice, and then never raised his head again.
Xie Lecheng bit his chopsticks and stared at Tang Qi as he entered the room.
Tang Qi didn't expect to come back at such a good time, but he was still relieved. He sat down with his bowl and chopsticks and started eating.
The meal was eaten in silence afterwards.
The adults are not the type to joke around, and they didn’t have much contact throughout the day, so they felt very unfamiliar with each other.
The children always remembered that there was a big monster hidden in Uncle Tangqi's body, and they didn't dare to talk to him for a while.
After dinner, Yun Mian moved her small stool to the sink and washed the dishes carefully. Then she complained quietly in her heart to the system uncle squatting on the windowsill.
"Uncle Tang stinks." The child pouted. His already low spirits were cast even lower after he smelled the smoke from a meal.
The system could only comfort her: "It's okay, next time we will eat faster and stay away from him, so that we won't smell the stinky smell on him."
Yunmian nodded sullenly, and then continued to ask: "But what if my mother hasn't eaten yet?"
The system was silent for a few seconds, then sighed: "Mianmian, your mother's condition is a bit serious. Both her physical and mental illness are very serious. We must find a way to make her better within these two months."
Otherwise, the only fate that awaits the mother and daughter is falling to their death.
The child wiped his eyes with his water-stained hands, sniffed, and nodded firmly: "Yes, Mianmian will try hard to make mom happy!"
The system flew over and kissed her soft cheek, accompanying her silently.
The night deepens.
Occasionally, the village could be heard with the empty barking of dogs, or the faint chirping of birds from the nearby bamboo forest. The croaking of frogs in the fields also continued to herald the arrival of the summer night.
At nine o'clock in the evening, all the children and parents were taken separately to the most critical part of the recording program: writing a parent-child diary.
Everyone has to write. Those who can't write can use pinyin. Those who can't write pinyin will also have staff to help write and record.
Under the bright light, Yunmian lay over the small table, holding a pen and clumsily and seriously writing the first diary of her life.
June 17, Lijiawan, weather: sunny
Mom only ate two eggs and a cucumber today.
Mom cooked a delicious meal and everyone ate a lot. They all liked the meal Mom cooked.
My mother was angry several times today. I wanted to say sorry to her, but when she was unhappy, I felt sad too.
My mother hid in the room and cried secretly, and I hid outside and cried secretly. I wanted to wipe my mother's tears, but my mother locked me out.
I love the little duck so much. Does the little duck love its mother as much as I do?
I sent a nice little flower to my mother and promised my grandfather to make shuzi. I am a little hungry~
I hope my mother is happy, I hope she gets better soon, and I hope I have great magic like the doctors.
I love my mother today and I will love her tomorrow too.
After Yunmian finished writing, she bit the tip of the pen and thought for a long time whether she had forgotten anything. Finally, she picked up the pen and wrote a sentence at the bottom of the big diary: "I hate the smell of chouchou, I don't like majiang, and I want to help Brother Tang fight off the monster in his father's body."
After finishing, he was still not satisfied, so he found a space to add a crooked line: "The biting grass is terrible, the bubble gum is delicious, my mother bought it for me."
Finally, Yunmian bit the tip of the pen and nodded with satisfaction, and finally drew a small black heart next to the word "Mom".
This is the love that only mothers have, no one else has it!
Yunmian closed the diary like a treasure, and when she handed it to the director, she was a little worried: "Sister, you won't peek, right?"
The director smiled and nodded and promised: "Don't worry, we promise not to peek!"
Yun Mian then reluctantly let go and watched her put the diary into another stack of diaries.
After the director put the diary away, she thought Yunmian had left, but when she turned around and looked down, she saw the cute little child looking up at her hesitantly.
The director was stunned for a second and asked her: "Mianmian, what's wrong? Is there anything else you want to say?"
Yunmian twisted her fingers shyly for a rare moment, and after several seconds she asked in a low, guilty voice, "Sister, can you let me secretly read Mom's diary? I will keep it a secret and won't let Mom know~"
director:"……"
Audience: “…”
My goodness, he ensured the safety of his own diary one second, and the next second he started wanting to peek at other people’s diaries?
The director smiled and rejected her slightly presumptuous request.
After failing to peek, Yunmian could only walk out disappointed.
Walking outside and looking up at the round, bright moon in the sky, the little girl was still a little worried.
"Uncle System, will my mother write that I'm a bad kid?"
System: “That shouldn’t be the case, right?”
"But I just broke a small bowl."
The system hesitated: "...That, maybe not. She wasn't angry at that time."
"But I made her angry during the day."
system:"……"
Silence fell.
After waiting for a long time without any response from the system uncle, Yun Mian hung his head and sighed sadly, as if he had already seen the horrible scene of his mother writing the three words "bad kid" on the notebook one stroke at a time.
When it was time to go to bed, Yunmian sat on the bed with her arms stretched out, waiting obediently for her mother to apply mosquito repellent floral water on her.
When the cool and refreshing floral water was applied on the body, a pungent smell came up. Yun Mian wrinkled her nose. After finally finishing applying it, she quickly moved away and took a deep breath.
She thought of the bad smell on Uncle Tang again.
Brother Tang Jiayuan said that when his father was gambling, there was a big monster hidden in his body. When Aunt Su Yuan was mean to Song Yu in the afternoon, she was also as mean as a big monster.
And what about your mother?
Yunmian hid in the quilt, only showing a pair of eyes to secretly observe her mother who was drinking medicine with an expressionless face, and then came to the conclusion: the unhappy mother seemed to have a monster hidden in her body.
Do all adults have a vicious beast?
Then why is there no powerful superman who can defeat them?
"Maybe there are too many adults with monsters, so the superheroes can't save them all." The system was thinking on the windowsill outside the house, answering the chat initiated by the child.
Yunmian nodded thoughtfully.
It turns out that the superheroes are too busy and too few.
That’s why I didn’t have time to help my mother fight off the monster.
As Yun Mian was thinking, she closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep without realizing it.
Yun Mengjin had already covered all the cameras in the room. She put down the water cup and did not go to bed immediately. Instead, she spread out the yoga mat she brought and did yoga quietly in the room.
In the middle of the night, Yun Mian vaguely felt that someone was lying in the quilt. Mosquitoes were buzzing around her ears, making her mutter in annoyance and open her eyes.
Then I saw my mother with a pale face and sweat all over her forehead.
Yunmian was suddenly awakened from her sleepiness.
She hurriedly got up and knelt beside her mother, pushed her shoulders with both hands, and asked her mother anxiously what was wrong.
By the way, I anxiously called out to the system uncle to come in and help see if my mother was sick.
Yun Mengjin's abdominal cramps made her feel so weak that even when she heard her daughter's voice, she could only respond in a dull and random voice.
The system flew in and scanned Yun Mengjin's current physical condition through the quilt, and then said in a deep voice: "Mianmian, it's stomach colic. Your mother has stomach medicine in her bag. Go find it and pour her some warm water to drink."
Hearing this, Yun Mian, who was frightened out of her wits, nodded hurriedly, then crawled past her mother, got out of bed in the dark, turned on the light and looked for medicine.
When Yunmian unzipped her mother's backpack, her hands were shaking unconsciously and tears fell on the back of her hands. She raised her hand to wipe them away and then fell into panic when she looked at the bag full of medicine bottles and boxes.
Why so many medicines?
It was full of medicine, all kinds of medicine, some of which had been mostly taken, and some of which were still whole boxes, all piled up in the bag.
Among so many medicines, which one is the stomach medicine?
The system quickly flew over to help her find the stomach medicine, and then reminded Yunmian to be extremely careful when pouring water.
This place is remote, and there weren't many home appliances when they moved in, so there was no water dispenser, only an electric kettle that a few people pooled their money to buy.
There was water in the kettle, but in order to prevent children from touching it and getting burned, Yun Mengjin placed it very high before leaving the kitchen.
Yun Mian tried standing on tiptoe but there was no way. There were only cameras working outside and no staff from the program crew. She could only run hurriedly to get a small stool.
Looking forward to the second exposure of the system.
