Shen Jiazhou sat on the sofa without moving; he was thinking.
Is this story absolutely necessary to tell?
Wen Shuqiao was the first to react. She said, "Baby, your uncle can tell you stories from the sofa."
Can Can, carrying her books, lingered as she walked towards Shen Jia Zhou, her lips pursed and not uttering a single word.
"Who taught you that?" Shen Jiazhou gently pinched his chin. "Nobody's bullying you."
Shen Jiazhou sighed and used "force" to make him turn his face back to him. At this moment, Can Can's eyes were brimming with tears, making her look extremely pitiful.
Can Can even took a step back to the side, stubbornly turning her face away, refusing to look at Shen Jia Zhou.
But his voice was muffled: "You haven't been back for so long, you have no idea how much I've missed you."
But now he doesn't even want to tell him stories to lull him to sleep!
He doesn't want this uncle anymore!!!
Shen Jiazhou felt a pang of sadness. It wasn't all for nothing that he had spoiled this little brat. Even though he had been away on business for so long, someone was still thinking of him.
His expression softened a little, and he was about to explain to Can Can when he heard Can Can continue, "I'm going to find another uncle. You're no longer my uncle."
The感动 (feeling of being moved/touched) vanished in an instant.
Shen Jiazhou picked him up and let him sit in his lap: "How many more uncles do you want?"
This is absolutely outrageous!
Clutching his storybook, Can Can said, "I'll find an uncle who can tell me stories! I don't want you anymore, I won't love you anymore, and I'll never think about you again!"
My aunt said that the baby's love is the most precious thing in the world, and he wants to make my uncle lose that love!!!
Shen Jiazhou wanted to laugh but didn't dare to. He stood up with Can Can in his arms and pretended to carry him away: "Okay, then come home with me. I'll tell you ten stories."
Can Can refused, saying, "No! Help, Auntie! A bad guy is going to kidnap me!"
Wen Shuqiao got up helplessly and said, "Stop making a fuss. There's another bed in the second bedroom. I'll go tidy it up."
Shen Jiazhou watched her walk to the side bedroom, then followed her with Can Can in his arms. He asked, "Where did he learn so many cheesy words?"
Wen Shuqiao replied, "The owner of the wonton stall next door likes to watch short videos when he's bored. The sound is a bit loud, and he learned how to do it by listening to it."
The second bedroom was prepared for Can Can beforehand, and Wen Shu Qiao bought all the bedding and other necessities.
She said, "I originally wanted to make a children's room for Can Can, but after he got a fever, he slept with me. After he recovered, the weather got cold again, so I stopped letting him sleep there by himself."
Cancan can have eight hundred different positions in one night. Sometimes Wen Shuqiao has to cover him with a blanket, which is too troublesome in winter. She is thinking that she can train him to sleep independently when the weather gets warmer.
Wen Shuqiao took the bedding out of the wardrobe, and Shen Jiazhou put Cancan on the ground: "I'll help you."
Wen Shuqiao glanced at him: "Okay, then you hold the two corners of this blanket."
Shen Jiazhou obediently kneaded it, watching Wen Shuqiao skillfully put on the duvet cover, and the awkwardness and contradiction that had not surfaced in his heart for a long time resurfaced.
Wen Shuqiao didn't notice Shen Jiazhou's gaze. She put the quilt on, grabbed the other two corners, and shook her hands slightly to finish.
A warm blanket was spread out on the bed, and Wen Shuqiao said, "Baby, bring your pillow over."
Can Can put down the storybook and happily went out of the second bedroom to get her own pillow and blanket.
Wen Shuqiao wasn't idle either; she found a new pillow and put a pillowcase on it.
Shen Jiazhou said from the side, "There's no need for that."
Wen Shuqiao placed a pillow on the bed: "It's something that's easy to do, so it should be more comfortable to lean against."
Shen Jiazhou looked at the cartoon four-piece bedding set on the bed and knew at a glance that it was a child's bed.
Wen Shuqiao said, "He likes to sleep with his arm close to his body. I'll just cover him with the blanket after he falls asleep, and then I'll carry him back to his room."
Shen Jia Zhou wrote them down one by one.
Wen Shuqiao wasn't in a hurry to leave. She turned on the air conditioner in the room, and after feeling the warmth coming out, she found a humidifier.
Everything was done meticulously, showing a great deal of life experience.
If it were him, he wouldn't have thought of all this.
Shen Jiazhou's gaze finally couldn't help but fall on Wen Shuqiao, and this time Wen Shuqiao happened to catch it.
She asked, puzzled, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Shen Jiazhou was also very honest, saying, "I just feel something is strange."
"What's wrong?" Wen Shuqiao looked around. "Is something not done properly?"
Shen Jiazhou shook his head without saying a word, but his eyes remained fixed on Wen Shuqiao.
It's not that it wasn't done well; it's that it was done too well, which is why it seems strange.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Wen Shuqiao stopped talking and left the second bedroom. At this moment, Can Can was struggling to carry her blanket and pillow that she used every night to the second bedroom.
Wen Shuqiao was about to reach out to rescue the baby pig when Shen Jiazhou also came out.
He took the pillow and blanket from Cancan's hands even faster than Wen Shuqiao.
He held a pillow in one hand and picked up a blanket with the other, puzzled: "What's this?"
Can Can tilted her head up and replied, "It's the baby's blanket!"
Shen Jiazhou still subconsciously looked at Wen Shuqiao, wanting her answer, but Wen Shuqiao had already walked towards the dining table.
He had no choice but to abandon his questioning and took Can Can back to the room.
The room is now warm and not as cold as it was before.
Can Can quickly took off her shoes and climbed into bed. After pulling back the covers, she reached out to Shen Jia Zhou: "Uncle~ a blanket!"
Shen Jiazhou handed him the blanket, and he saw him cover himself with it first, wrap himself up tightly, and then pull up the outer quilt to snuggle into the bed.
He lay down, rubbed his head, and looked at Shen Jiazhou standing by the bed with bright eyes: "Uncle! Come on~"
The pillow isn't put away yet!
The last time I shared a bed with someone was in Shen Jiachen's rented room. I never imagined that a few years later, it would be his son.
Shen Jiazhou stepped forward and stuffed a pillow under his head, then went back to get Cancan's storybook. He intended to sit on the edge of the bed and talk to him, but Cancan patted the empty bed: "Uncle~ come up here~"
The baby can't wait to hear the story!
*
Wen Shuqiao stretched her slightly stiff neck; with just a little bit left, she could finally rest today.
She took a sip of warm water, and just as her fingers were about to continue typing, she heard Can Can's voice.
"Auntie~"
Wen Shuqiao turned her head in confusion to look at the second bedroom, where Can Can was standing at the door with a pillow and blanket.
She went over and took his blanket and pillow: "What's wrong?"
Can Can shook her arm and said with a slightly aggrieved expression, "Uncle is asleep."
The wake-up call service was ineffective, so Can Can had to get up on her own, carrying a blanket and pillow, and come out from the other side.
We agreed to put the baby to sleep, but my uncle fell asleep the fastest!
He's angry!
