Chapter 122 Speak Slowly



In the garden, there are small bridges, flowing water, carved railings and painted buildings, and bamboo trees surrounding it, which is a beautiful scenery. The most common thing to see is of course the crabapple trees, some of which are still hanging with fruits, the fruits are bright red, and even the air is filled with a sweet and sour smell.

Arriving at Yiran Courtyard, the courtyard wall was covered with rose vines, which had no leaves at this time, and even the vines had turned yellow. There were a few green bamboos on the right, with slender leaves swaying in the wind. On the left were a few tall ginkgo trees, with sparse golden leaves hanging on the trees, and a layer of golden yellow on the ground. Dozens of pots of Begonias were placed on both sides of the bluestone road in the middle, with densely packed light pink flowers blooming among the branches and leaves. There were many bird cages hanging under the corridor, and the birds in the cages were singing cheerful songs. Outside a red carved window, there was an exquisite bird cage, and the cage contained the ten-colored sparrow.

Looking at the lively scene, I always feel it is very deliberate and something is missing.

Entering the living room, Chu Hanyan had just finished breakfast and was sitting on the bed, holding her little swallow doll and in a daze. When she saw them coming, she twisted her body and turned her head away. Although her eyes seemed dull, Chen Afu still noticed that her eyes seemed to be a little red, as if she had been abandoned.

Zhuifeng still remembered Chu Hanyan, and howled loudly as he tried to rush over. Dabao was afraid that he would scare Chu Hanyan, so he hugged his neck and said, "Just say hello to sister Yan'er, don't go over and scare her."

Qiqi and Huihui had already impatiently flown to Luohan's bed and started shouting "Sister Yan'er".

Mother Song winked at Chen Afu and said silently, "Sister is still vomiting."

Chen Ahfu walked over, squatted down and said, "Hey, sister, are you angry with Aunt Chen? Don't be angry, Aunt Chen and Dabao are here to accompany you again."

Chu Hanyan's little head didn't turn around, her mouth was pouting, her chubby hands were pulling the little swallow doll, she said incoherently, "The bird... flew away, Auntie and Dabao... flew away too."

Chen Ahfu laughed and said, "Auntie and Dabao don't have wings, so how can they fly? Besides, we can't bear to leave our sister, so even if we had wings, we wouldn't let her fly away. But we won't be like..."

I wanted to say, "They're not as cruel as Jinbao," but thinking of the stingy Jinbao, I changed my words and said, "They're not like Qiqi and Huihui, who went wild in the woods as soon as they got home."

Chu Hanyan turned her little head around, first looked at Chen Afu, then at Dabao, and then turned her gaze to Chen Afu, pouting and saying, "Auntie, Dabao, I'm afraid... he will fly away." After saying that, her little mouth pursed and a layer of mist welled up in her eyes.

Chen Ahfu's heart was broken, and he hugged her and said, "Don't worry, Yanjie, Auntie and Dabao won't fly away, and they won't abandon you." He then said to Dabao, "Did you hear that? Yanjie said she was afraid that we would fly away and no longer accompany her."

Dabao came over quickly, took Chu Hanyan's hand and swore, "Don't worry, sister Yan'er, I won't fly away, I will always be with you." Then he added solemnly, "Forever."

Chu Hanyan glanced at Dabao, curled her lips, and threw herself into Chen Afu's arms again, pressing her little head tightly against her chest.

Chen Ahfu was helpless and said, "Auntie made a delicious cake. Sister will definitely like it."

Mother Song said hurriedly, "Sister has just eaten. She can't eat anything else. It's hard to digest."

Chen Afu said, "It's okay. This kind of small thing is easy to digest. I won't give her too much."

She held Chu Hanyan in one hand and took out a piece of golden silk cake from the food box with the other hand. The golden silk cake was cut into small pieces, square, only two fingers wide.

The little girl's nose was really useful. She quickly crawled out of Chen Afu's arms, looked at the golden cake and said, "Niao Niao...Jinbao." After she finished speaking, a trace of transparent silver flowed from the corner of her mouth.

Chen Ahfu handed the golden silk cake to her and said, "This is golden silk cake. It's very delicious. Try it, sister."

Chu Hanyan took the golden silk cake and started eating it in small bites.

Chen Ahfu put her on the ground and helped her wipe the saliva from the corner of her mouth. He said, "The wind chaser can bow now. Let's go outside to watch its performance." After that, he took her out.

From now on, Chen Afu will fulfill the duties of a kindergarten teacher.

The first step is to let her do more outdoor activities and walk more on her own legs.

They came under the ginkgo tree. The sunlight shone through the gaps between the branches and leaves, making people feel warm and just the right amount of calcium.

Mother Song disagreed in her heart. The sun in the countryside is stronger than in the city. It would be a pity for a young lady from a wealthy family to get tanned. However, before the master left, he told her that everything about her daughter should be decided by Master Chen. So, even if she had some thoughts in her heart, she didn't say them out loud. She just told Miao'er and Qiao'er to bring a few brocade stools here.

Chen Afu then asked Miao'er to call the Luo siblings, saying that more children would make the family more lively.

Zhuifeng rolled over and bowed on the golden "blanket", making the little girls giggle. Qiqi and Huihui also jumped and imitated the girls' laughter.

Chu Hanyan didn't watch Zhuifeng's show of affection. She had already finished eating the golden silk cake. She came to Chen Afu and said, "Auntie, I want more."

Chen Ahfu broke off another small piece of golden silk cake and said, "Sister, if you eat a little more, you can't eat any more. You have to leave some for Jinbao, right?"

Chu Hanyan took the golden silk cake and asked, "Jin... Bao, do you like it?"

Chen Ahfu smiled and said, "Of course, Jinbao likes everything that Sister Yan likes. That's why he will fly here as fast as possible next spring to see our Sister Yan."

Chu Hanyan's lips curled up, revealing two dimples.

Chu Hanyan ate the golden silk cake and didn't ask for any more, which shows how much she was looking forward to Jinbao's return.

Not long after, Luo Mei and Luo Mingyuan came, and Chen Afu gave each of them another piece of golden silk cake.

Chen Ahfu pulled Chu Hanyan in front of him, smoothed her hair, and said, "Do you like the little swallow in the flowery dress?"

Chu Hanyan glanced at the little swallow doll in her hand and exclaimed "ah" in a daze.

Chen Ahfu held her in his arms, held her hand holding the little swallow doll and said, "Auntie, sing a song of 'Little Swallow, Wearing Flowery Clothes' for me. Dabao and Jinbao also like it very much."

Then, he sang softly:

Little Swallow, wearing a flowery dress,

Come here every spring...

As she sang, she also shook Chu Hanyan's hand holding the doll rhythmically.

The lyrics were simple and the melody was cheerful and pleasant, which immediately attracted everyone except Chu Hanyan.

Chen Afu sang it several times. From the third time, Chu Hanyan's dull eyes became a little lively. Slowly, a smile appeared at the corners of her lips, and her eyes stared at Chen Afu motionlessly.

Seeing that the girl was attracted, Chen Afu stopped singing.

As soon as she stopped, Chu Hanyan's eyes were filled with mist again, and she said, "More... Auntie... Speak slowly."

The little girl has never heard the song.
