Chapter 16
The doll he got in exchange was too big to hold, so Jiang Xu only took the remaining small doll and left the big one on the counter.
Jiang Xu had never realized before that there were so many toys on the underground floor, including balloons, rings, and small animals.
Jiang Xu tried all of them. They popped balloons for 15 yuan and 20 shots. Before they started, Jiang Xu asked He Jin which doll he liked. He Jin picked the easiest one, which only required popping 12 balloons. Jiang Xu was still not happy, "Don't look down on me. I'll give you a special prize. You can pick whatever you want."
He Jin laughed and said nothing, "Well, you fight."
The boss standing by was a little confused. He wondered if the characters had been switched. Shouldn't a man be saying this?
As a result, after one round, five out of twenty shots hit the target, and in the second round, seven out of twenty shots hit the target.
Jiang Xu almost couldn't hold back and wanted to buy the shop directly.
The boss beside him touched his chin. It was within his expectation. "Don't be sad, little girl. Let your boyfriend come."
Jiang Xu pointed to the other side and said, "No, Boss, you should open the shop over there as well."
Then he said to He Jin, "Brother Jin, go fight over there."
He Jin had no objection: "Okay."
The boss originally just wanted to make a little more money, but this time he made double the money and laughed even more happily.
The result disappointed him greatly. He Jin hit 18 balloons in the first round and 19 in the second round, winning two special prizes.
Looking at Jiang Xu, it was probably the first round that allowed her to get a feel for the strength and accuracy, nineteen in one round and seventeen in another.
The boss didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a moment. Are children's brains so smart nowadays? How can they still get on the machine? He let Jiang Xu choose the doll by herself with great sorrow.
Jiang Xu touched her chin, as if to say, yes, this young lady is just that outstanding, and pulled He Jin's arm: "Hey, boss, please keep the babies for yourself, there are too many to carry away."
The boss was stunned for a moment, then smiled happily, "Hey little girl, how can I say this? Here are these two little pendants for you, a couple's style."
Jiang Xu also took it swiftly. The white octopus and brown dough were much more delicate than the big doll over there. "Thank you, boss."
"No thanks, take care." He refused to utter the next two words.
After dinner, the two of them walked around the supermarket for a while. Jiang Xu suddenly got excited and dragged He Jin to see a movie.
This is a movie about the Anti-Japanese War, and it has a very high rating. Jiang Xu has liked watching war movies since he was a child, and the movies have to be about victory, otherwise he would be sad for several days.
One hall was basically full. The two of us bought our tickets late, so we bought seats closer to the edge, with a wall between us and the hall. The hall wasn't big, but that didn't affect our viewing experience.
Jiang Xu was in high spirits throughout the whole process, and He Jin watched it seriously, at least he remembered which periods of history and which figures, but most of the time his eyes stayed on his surroundings.
As if at the perfect time, as soon as the two of them walked out of the cinema, the phone from home called.
"Brother Jin, I want to go back. My brother is home alone, and I don't know where my parents are. My aunt is on holiday this weekend." Jiang Xu was feeling a little down. He originally wanted to go out for a big meal with his parents who always failed to show up at the critical moment.
"Okay, I'll take you back." He Jin lowered his eyes.
Jiang Xu thought about the quarrel between He Jin and Jiang You last time and sighed. After thinking for a long time, he said, "Brother Jin, he is only in kindergarten."
He Jin thought she was telling him not to bother with the kindergarten kids, and then he heard the girl say, "I will definitely not take care of him when he goes to elementary school."
Little Jiang You, who was innocently caught in the crossfire: ...Sister, you have changed. You used to love me the most.
Seeing the girl's sincere eyes, He Jin pinched her face, which was really cute. Then he gently sucked on her pouting lips and said, "Okay."
——
Little Jiang You was bored at home all day. He finally waited for his sister to show up at the door. He ran to open the door. Just as he was about to run over, he found that his sister stood on tiptoe and kissed the brother on the face. When she let go, he was pulled by him to kiss her again.
Little Jiang You stayed where he was. Although the scene was beautiful, the brother saw him but only glanced at him.
Still haven't let go of my sister! You're leading the child astray! Points will be deducted!
Little Jiang You ran in angrily, his short hands folded in front of his chest, his eyes rolling around, as if he was planning something bad.
I don't know how long it took, Jiang Xu walked in, "Baby, sister is back."
Jiang You rarely went forward to greet her, and it seemed that he was really heartbroken.
Jiang Xu held a big doll in her arms and placed it in front of Jiang You. The doll was taller than him.
"What's wrong, baby? Are you unhappy? Look at this cat."
The little guy's eyes lit up, he jumped off the sofa, and stood on tiptoe to touch the crown on the cat's head.
"Does it look good? Your future brother-in-law won this. He said he wanted to give it to you, okay?"
Hearing this, the little guy stopped moving, snorted very proudly, and climbed onto the sofa again to sit down.
Seeing the little guy's expression was the same as the emperor's, Jiang Xu couldn't help but smile and pinched his face, "Baby, don't you like it?"
"I don't like it. I don't like it at all. Humph!" The little guy glanced to the side, looking aggrieved.
Well, the bribe failed.
In the evening, while Jiang Xu was cooking noodles in the kitchen, the little guy secretly picked up the phone on the sofa, unlocked it, opened WeChat, looked at a row of avatars and fell into deep thought. Finally, he clicked on the top one, lay in the corner of the sofa, whispered something, transferred the text and sent it.
Then he felt it was not enough, so he said one more sentence, sent it as a text, and then stared at the screen without blinking.
………
He Jin was standing at the front desk about to pay when a message popped up above his phone.
J: Let’s break up.
He Jin's eyelids twitched and his phone vibrated again.
J: [I don’t like you anymore.]
He Jin paid the bill slowly, then sat aside, curled his lips slightly, deleted the typed words, and switched to voice.
A few minutes later, a small bubble appeared on the screen. Jiang You poked it and held it against his ear. "She's not used to ending her conversation with a period."
Little Jiang You was a little confused. Before he could think carefully, the second voice message came: "It's useless if you don't like her," and there was a pause of a few seconds, "She is mine." This added fuel to the fire of his relationship with his brother-in-law.
After hearing a few words, the little guy was furious and sent a voice message directly, "Sister is mine! Mine! You bad guy!"
He Jin smiled happily after hearing this voice message.
He didn't reply, and no one knew what he was arguing with a kindergarten kid for.
………
Afterwards, Jiang Xu looked at the two lines of chat history and fell into a long period of contemplation. He pulled Jiang You in front of him with a serious face, "Baby, you are not behaving well."
When little Jiang You saw his sister being so fierce, he burst into tears, trying to cry out all the grievances he had suffered that day.
Jiang Xu watched the little guy finish crying, and rarely did he try to comfort him.
When little Jiang You saw that his sister didn't try to comfort him, he cried even harder, as if he had suffered some great injustice.
He cried intermittently for five or six minutes before finally giving up. His eyes were red. Jiang Xu then took a tissue to wipe his tears. "Baby, don't you like your brother so much?"
The little guy groaned and sobbed, his shoulders shrugging: "He wants to steal my sister from me. He is a bad guy."
Jiang Xu didn't know whether to laugh or sigh: "Brother is not a bad person, he can protect his sister."
"I can protect my sister too!" Little Jiang You was unconvinced.
Jiang Xu asked, "Can you beat my brother?"
"I'll defeat him with my dynamic light wave!" Little Jiang You stiffened his neck, his expression very determined, "I still have Ultraman!"
Jiang Xu laughed out loud, thought for a moment and said, "Baby, do you have any favorite kids?"
Little Jiang You nodded.
Jiang Xu was a little surprised. She had only asked casually, "What if your sister doesn't allow you to play with that kid?"
The little guy shook his head without even thinking about it.
Jiang Xu poked his puffy cheek and said, "If you don't let me and my brother be together, I'll be very sad too."
As if finding some empathy, little Jiang You blinked, pouted, and compromised, "Okay then, sister, if your brother bullies you, you have to tell me!"
Seeing that she had finally convinced the stubborn little guy, Jiang Xu rubbed his chubby cheeks and said comfortingly, "Brother is very good to you, so you should be nicer to him too. Send a voice message to apologize to him."
Little Jiang You was a little reluctant but still did as he was told. He pressed the little bubbles and said in a little aggrieved voice, "Brother, I'm sorry. You have to be with your sister."
The other party replied quickly, also in voice: "Got it, come over and open the door."
Hmm? Open the door?
Jiang Xu and little Jiang You were both stunned for a moment, and then ran to open the door.
He Jin stood at the door with various bags in his hands. He first rubbed Jiang Xu's hair, and then turned his eyes down to the face of the little guy who was hugging Jiang Xu's legs. There were traces of tears on the face of the little guy, who looked pitiful.
Jiang Xu asked, "Brother Jin, why are you here?"
He Jin raised the bag in his hand: "I don't want to eat it."
Jiang Xu looked at the ice cream logo on the bag, and her eyes brightened again. She had originally planned to eat it in the evening.
Little Jiang You also looked at the bag, his eyes shining with eagerness. After all, he still had to eat the ice cream.
"Go and eat it, it's made with taro paste." He Jin bent down and handed the bag to Jiang You.
Little Jiang You suddenly felt a little guilty, but not much, and said sweetly: "Thank you, brother."
Jiang Xu was a little helpless, even though the situation was tense just now. He explained to He Jin, "Brother Jin, Xiaoyou is disobedient. Go ahead and scold him later. I've already told him."
He Jin didn't plan to go in, and pulled Jiang Xu closer, "Well, if I were him, I would be unhappy too."
Jiang Xu asked doubtfully, "Huh?"
He Jin leaned over and gently touched her face, "Is there no reward?"
Jiang Xu immediately understood, and she hooked her arm around his neck and pulled him down, kissing him on the lips several times in a row: "Is it okay?"
He Jin was in a good mood and nodded, "Okay, go ahead and eat it. It won't taste good if it melts. I have some things to do when I get home."
Jiang Xu blinked: "Yeah, brother Jin, be careful on the road, see you tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow."
