Chapter 68 The Three Sons Have a Snowball Fight
Lu Yinzhao glanced at Lu Cheng, whose face suddenly fell, and then at the potato slice that Lu Wenyan had scooped out for him.
She raised her hand and picked up the potato slice, giving it to the boy. "Fourth brother, you can have this first."
Lu Cheng's face, like the ever-changing weather, went from drizzle to sunshine in an instant.
"Thank you, Zhao Zhao! Fourth Brother will always love you! Mwah!!"
Lu Cheng leaned over and kissed the little guy's cheeks several times, making a loud noise.
Lu Wenyan cast a glance at him, his eyes seeming to say: Just spoil him!
Yin Song felt that this kind of brotherly relationship was very good.
In this family, Zhao Zhao is the most perceptive and observant.
Zhao Zhao won't leave anyone out; they're a family, and it's not okay for anyone to show favoritism.
Lu Yinzhao is the master of balance and the ambassador of harmony.
In the end, both of them were having a great time, and Lu Cheng forgot about her idol image.
There is nothing more blissful than enjoying a hot pot meal on a cold winter's day.
After they finished eating, their lips were both red, and they exhaled in perfect unison.
This time, Yin Song released an extremely long vlog without any editing.
This will allow fans who have been eagerly awaiting updates to enjoy them all at once.
[Ahhhh, Zhao Zhao finally updated!]
[I'm here! First, I'll like and save this post, then leave a comment. I'll look at it again when I'm on the poop.]
Wow! Lu Cheng is home too! My two favorite brothers are together again!
[I was on a diet, but this video completely overwhelmed me!]
These two guys treated hotpot like it was a grand Manchu Han Imperial Feast; suddenly, the cucumber in my hand didn't taste so good anymore.
[Warning! Your way of eating is suspected of "enticing others to order takeout!"]
[Haha, these two brothers are so in sync! Do they share a stomach? Their chopstick movements are like they're being copied and pasted.]
[Director Lu is so hypocritical! He's so diligent in serving food to Zhao Zhao, but when it comes to Lu Cheng, it's like, "Can't you eat with your hands?" Hahaha!]
[My baby's arms are too short to reach into the pot by themselves. They're staring at the food in the pot with that same look in their eyes! My dog always makes the same face when I open a snack box.]
I love watching Zhao Zhao eat so intently; I recommend watching this video with "The Song of the Rice Eater."
Perhaps because it had been so long since she last posted a video, this vlog gave netizens a feeling of "absence makes the heart grow fonder."
The number of likes and comments also surpassed all the previous videos, making it extremely popular.
Zhao Zhao now has over a million followers, and her follower count is steadily increasing.
The more Zhao Zhao enjoyed her food, the happier her fans were.
After lunch, Lu Yinzhao took a nap as usual.
They've developed a habit in kindergarten that they feel uncomfortable if they don't take a nap every day.
When I woke up, I found that Lu Cheng was still playing games.
With Yin Song and Lu Wenyan at home, Lu Cheng didn't dare to play video games with Zhao Zhao.
Seeing the little guy walking over in a daze with a tuft of hair sticking up, Lu Cheng immediately threw away his phone after finishing the game.
"Come here, Zhao Zhao! Your fourth brother will play with you for a while!"
Lu Yinzhao walked over slowly and habitually stretched out her arms for her brother to hug her.
Lu Cheng picked up Zhao Zhao and weighed her in his arms. "The baby's gotten stronger and stronger! In two more months she'll be a year older."
Only after Lu Cheng reminded him did Lu Yinzhao realize what was happening.
He has been in this big family for almost two years now.
Lu Yinzhao had grown accustomed to life here. In such peaceful days, he no longer felt lonely, and the bitterness in his memories of his previous life had completely faded away.
It seems that this is how his life was supposed to start... It's so good to be able to start life over again.
"Fourth brother, it's snowing outside." Lu Yinzhao stared out the window and saw the snowflakes falling slowly.
"Really!" Lu Cheng looked over in that direction.
At first, it fell in small flakes, but later it became a large, sweeping shower.
The ginkgo tree in front of their yard had long since lost all its leaves, and after a short while of snowfall, the bare tree turned into a branch-shaped candlestick covered in "icing sugar".
The heating inside was on full blast. Lu Cheng walked over and roughly wiped a patch of the window, which was covered in condensation, making the view of the snow scene outside even clearer.
“It snowed a few days ago, but it was very light and melted as soon as it hit the ground.” At this moment, Lu Wenyan walked over to the two brothers.
"The snow is quite heavy today. I checked the weather forecast, and it'll probably continue until tomorrow night," Lu Wenyan continued.
"Dad, I want to go out and play for a while!" Lu Cheng reached out and shoved Zhao Zhao into Lu Wenyan's arms, then went back to his room to change his gear.
Lu Yinzhao pouted, "Daddy, I want to play too."
Seeing the longing in his son's eyes, Lu Wenyan softened and agreed, "Then Dad will give you a few more clothes to wear."
The temperature outside was very low, so Lu Wenyan had to make sure her son was well protected.
Just as they were changing their "equipment," the snow in the yard piled up another layer.
The snow fell rather hastily, as if inviting the inhabitants of the house.
The moment the door opened, a biting wind rushed towards Lu Yinzhao's face, making him immediately shrink his neck in the cold.
He pulled his scarf up until it covered half of his face.
Lu Cheng wasn't too particular; he just threw on a down jacket and rushed out.
What was he doing when it snowed last year? Lu Cheng couldn't quite remember.
Anyway, I've never played in the snow with Zhaozhao.
The boy ran into the yard and deliberately lay down in the thickest part of the snow, leaving a human footprint.
Following suit, Lu Yinzhao lay down next to Lu Cheng.
When the two got up, there were two more footprints, one big and one small, in the yard.
The two brothers burst out laughing at the same time, their voices filled with excitement and joy.
Lu Wenyan took photos of the two of them from the side. While Zhaozhao was still young, he, as her father, wanted to record as many of these moments as possible.
Then the two brothers started building a snowman, working together and dividing the tasks.
Lu Yinzhao carried a small bucket and used a small shovel to shovel snow into it.
Lu Cheng was responsible for making large balls out of the snow that Zhao Zhao brought over, and then patting and trimming the edges of them.
Despite his usually carefree attitude, he can be quite obsessive-compulsive when building a snowman.
He would be very upset if the snowball wasn't round enough.
"Zhaozhao, just three or four more buckets will do. Let's try building a little snowman today."
Considering that Zhao Zhao was too young to carry that much snow at once, Lu Cheng built a snowman that was about the same size as Zhao Zhao.
Two snowballs, one large and one small, were piled together to form a height proportional to Zhao Zhao's.
Yin Song took two grapes and a carrot from the house, saying, "These will make eyes and a nose; they'll look especially good."
The two brothers each pressed a grape onto the snowman, making it look uneven.
Lu Cheng immediately corrected his uneven facial features.
Lu Yinzhao picked up a leaf, tore it in half, and used the two halves as the snowman's eyebrows.
"Why does it look so unhappy?" After the eyebrows were pasted on, the snowman looked rather embarrassed.
"Haha! It looks a bit like Zhao Zhao's expression on the show before," Lu Wenyan couldn't help but complain.
“It really does look a bit like it… Zhao Zhao, go stand over there and stand next to the snowman.” Lu Cheng gave Lu Yin Zhao a push.
Lu Yinzhao stood obediently next to the life-size snowman, which made him look even more interesting.
The two people in front of him were taking pictures of him with their phones.
"..."
Lu Yinzhao was completely treated as a toy by the adults.
He got angry in a fit of rage, squatted down, picked up a small snowball, and threw it menacingly at the two of them.
Lu Cheng nimbly dodged to the side, saying cheekily, "Hey? You can't hit me! Aha!"
The boy rolled out a snowball several times larger than the one Zhao Zhao had just made, held it in his hand, squinted his eyes, and deliberately teased the child, saying, "Zhao Zhao, Fourth Brother is going to fight back! I'll let you run a few steps ahead!"
Lu Yinzhao turned to run away, but before he could take more than a few steps, he was hit by a snowball.
Lu Cheng deliberately held back, not hitting her too hard, but Zhao Zhao was dressed like a penguin and was so bulky that she stumbled when hit lightly and fell flat on her face.
Lu Wenyan couldn't stand still any longer, so she grabbed a handful of snow and slapped it on Lu Cheng's face.
"You brat! How dare you bully your little brother!"
The three of them inexplicably formed a food chain, and the courtyard suddenly became their battleground.
Yin Song was standing at the door texting her best friend. After taking a picture of this scene, she added a sentence.
[Yin Song]: [Video]
[Yin Song]: A man is a boy until he dies.
[Wen Su]: Hahahahahahahaha!
[Wen Su]: Has it snowed in China? We're going back in a while!
Wen Su took Bian Ji abroad again some time ago. The family reunited abroad this year and will return to China together after the New Year.
Since arriving abroad, Bian Ji has regained his former taciturn nature.
Abroad, there was no Lu Yinzhao, nor anything else that interested him.
He stayed in the villa without ever leaving, simply playing melodies quietly and then writing them down.
"Ah Ji, let me show you a video."
"I don't want to see it, I'm not interested—"
"It's Zhaozhao."
Bian Ji paused, put down the pen, and reached out, "Give it to me."
Wen Su suppressed a laugh and handed over the phone.
In the video, Lu Yinzhao is having a lot of fun in the snow. The hat she is wearing has a small round ball on top, which sways as she runs.
Bian Ji's older brother, Bian Nan, didn't go to the company today. He was quite surprised to see his younger brother, who was usually uninterested in anything except music, showing a faint smile.
"What video? Let me see it too." Bian Nan walked over curiously, about to lean down and look at Bian Ji.
The younger brother simply locked the screen, saying, "It's nothing."
“…” Bian Nan was speechless.
He had only been separated from his younger brother for a year or two, so how come his brother had started to have little secrets that he couldn't understand?
He put his hands on his hips and said to Wen Su, "Mom, I'll go back to China next year to develop my career, and let Dad run the overseas company by himself."
Bian Nan was unhappy; he felt that the gap between him and his younger brother was widening.
There was already a generation gap, after all, there's the age difference, I'm more than ten years older than him.
If we live separately for a few more years, I'm afraid he won't even recognize his brother anymore.
Wen Su paused, then stroked her chin and thought for a moment: "How about we switch?"
Bian Nan: "Exchange?"
Wen Su smiled and said, "You go back to China to take care of Aji, and I'll stay abroad with your father."
Bian Nan instantly saw through her mother's thoughts.
The couple had been in a long-distance relationship for a while, and when they met again, they became even more affectionate.
Bian Nan felt that Wen Su had also had a hard time, sacrificing time with her father for her younger brother's development.
“Sure.” Bian Nan thought this was a good opportunity to build a relationship with her younger brother.
"I refuse." Bian Ji said coldly, handing the phone back to Wen Su without even glancing at Bian Nan, and went back to her room alone.
The door slammed shut.
Bian Nan: "..."
