"Goodbye, sister Qingqing, and goodbye, brother-in-law." Little Ayan understood and quickly followed suit, waving.
After Su Qingqing and Qin Huaichuan entered the house, Su Mianmian took little Ayan and Shen Yuandao and carried Jiubao back to the Shen family.
When Su Mianmian sent Xiao Ayan to the door of his house and was about to go back, she saw Xiao Ayan looking up at her.
"What's wrong?"
Little Ayan hesitated for a long time before saying, "Sister, can you please coax me to sleep? Ever since Jiubao was born, you haven't been with me much."
After saying it, he felt a little embarrassed, but more of anticipation.
Su Mianmian felt a little guilty after hearing this. Indeed, since she had Jiubao, she rarely spent time with A Yan.
She glanced at Shen Yuandao and motioned him to carry his daughter in first, while she touched little Ayan's head and said, "Okay, sister will tell you a story today."
Little Ayan was visibly happy, "Okay! I love you so much, sister."
Su Mianmian smiled slightly, "Sister will take you to wash your feet first, and then sister will tell me a story, okay?"
"Yeah, sister."
Seeing that he agreed, Su Mianmian went to boil water. After the water was hot, she called towards her room, "Ayuan, the water is ready."
"Got it!" After a while, Shen Yuandao came to the kitchen, "Go and help Ah Yan wash his feet first, I'll boil water for you after I finish using it."
"Okay, then I won't care."
After saying that, Su Mianmian filled a basin with hot water and brought it to Xiao Ayan's room.
"Ayan, wash your feet."
Little Ayan took the initiative to find a small stool and sat down.
"Sister, Ayan can do it by himself."
Su Mianmian nodded and sat on a stool beside her. "Okay, wash it yourself."
Looking at little Ayan washing her feet seriously, Su Mianmian couldn't help but touch his head.
"Ayan, I've neglected you recently. I apologize to you."
Little Ayan turned to look at her, "Yes, Ayan, please forgive me! Jiubao is younger than Ayan, so it's my duty to take care of him."
"Our little Ayan is also a baby, a five-year-old baby.
In the future, if our Ah Yan feels wronged or if my sister has neglected you in any way, you must tell me like you did today, okay?"
"Okay, Ayan will definitely tell my sister."
After washing, little Ayan poured the water, climbed onto the kang and covered himself with a quilt.
"Sister, start talking."
"Okay, then I'll tell you a story about Nezha's Conquest of the Sea!"
"Okay."
"This Nezha is the son of Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King. He stayed in his mother, Madam Yin's womb for three years and six months, and finally gave birth to a ball of flesh.
Nezha's father thought it was a monster and cut it open with his sword. But when he cut it open, a baby boy came out. This baby boy was Nezha.
Little Ayan was so fascinated by what he was hearing that he sat up and said, "Sister, why did you take three years and six months to be pregnant? Jiubao has only been in your belly for a little over nine months at most."
"Because this way, Nezha will appear special and different from ordinary children."
"It seems so." Xiao Ayan agreed.
In fact, she didn't know either, and she regretted why she talked about this instead of Sun Wukong, Su Mianmian thought.
"This Nezha has two treasures, the Chaos Ribbon and the Universe Ring."
Little Ayan became even more curious, "Sister, what do these two treasures look like? Ayan wants to see them."
"Wait for sister to draw it for you tomorrow, okay?"
"Okay, sister, tell me quickly, what happened next?"
"Then one day, Nezha went to the beach to play. He used the Chaos Sky Ribbon to stir up the sea water, and then the Dragon Palace under the sea began to shake.
The Third Prince of the Dragon Clan came to the sea to investigate, and a conflict broke out between the two. Nezha, in a rage, beat the Third Prince to death and then pulled out his dragon tendons.
Having said this, Su Mianmian stopped.
Little Ayan looked puzzled, staring at Su Mianmian with sparkling eyes. "Sister, what's next? Please continue."
Su Mianmian couldn't help laughing when she saw him staring at her without blinking.
"I won't tell you a story today. Children fall asleep quickly when others tell stories. The more I tell you a story, the more energetic you will be."
"Ah~ Yan hasn't heard enough."
Su Mianmian touched his head and said, "It's getting late and you have to go to school tomorrow. Ah Yan, go to bed early. I'll continue to explain to you tomorrow night, okay?"
"Still speaking tomorrow?"
Su Mianmian smiled and nodded, "Yes, do you want to hear your sister tell you every day?"
"Okay, sister, please continue telling me stories tomorrow. Yan will go to bed today."
As he said this, he covered himself with the quilt and closed his eyes.
Su Mianmian waited until he fell asleep, then closed the door and went back to her room.
…
Su Mianmian returned to the house. Shen Yuandao was feeding Jiubao. Seeing Su Mianmian come in, he turned around and looked at her, "Are you asleep?"
Su Mianmian filled a basin with water and began to wash her feet. She nodded when he asked, "Yeah, I told him a story, and he became more and more alert the more he listened. In the end, he fell asleep only when I stopped telling him."
Shen Yuan said: "Just fall asleep, what's the story? It makes me curious."
"It's the story of Nezha's Conquest of the Sea."
Shen Yuandao nodded, "Then you must be good at telling stories. When I was telling stories, Ah Yan fell asleep within five minutes."
"Haha, you hypnotize people with stories." After Su Mianmian poured out the foot washing water, she went up to the kang and hugged the little fat girl who was still drinking milk.
"Oh, my daughter is getting prettier and prettier. She looks just like me."
Shen Yuandao agreed, "Indeed, my daughter Mianmian is beautiful, and my daughter looks like you."
Su Mianmian slapped him in annoyance and said, "Alright, stop talking."
Shen Yuandao raised his eyebrows slightly, "That's right, you are beautiful, I am not wrong."
Su Mianmian pulled him to lie down, "Sleep, sleep."
Shen Yuandao took her into his arms and kissed her forehead, "Okay, go to sleep."
…
"Mianmian, Ah Yan and I are leaving! I've kept breakfast warm in the pot for you."
Su Mianmian heard Shen Yuandao's voice in a daze, "Well, okay."
Shen Yuandao covered Su Mianmian with a blanket, squeezed the chubby girl's little hand, and then took Ah Yan out of the house.
When the two of them arrived at the door of the Qin family, Qin Huaichuan and Su Qingqing also came out.
Little Ayan waved his hand and said, "Good morning, sister Qingqing and brother-in-law."
"Good morning, Ayan." They said in unison.
Ah Yan broke free from Shen Yuandao's hand, then ran over and held Su Qingqing's hand, "Sister Qingqing, I told me the story of Nezha's Conquering the Dragon King yesterday. Have you heard it?"
Su Qingqing glanced down at him and nodded, "I've heard of it, what's wrong?"
Little Ayan's eyes lit up, and he looked at Su Qingqing expectantly, "Then can you tell me what happened after Nezha pulled out the Third Prince's dragon tendons?"
"Ah? Didn't your sister tell you?"
Little Ayan chuckled, "No, the more Ayan listened, the more he couldn't sleep, so sister stopped telling him. She said she would tell him tonight, but Ayan couldn't wait and wanted to know what happened next."
