"Okay." Li Xia opened her lips and said, "We should go back. We still have some time. Last night I promised Xiao Bei that I would take her and Xiao Bao out for hot pot tonight. Let's go home now, and then I'll go pack up, and we'll be there in time."
She didn't forget what she promised her daughter.
As children grow older, they rarely ask to go out for dinner with their parents.
Li Xia usually agrees to the children's reasonable requests and never breaks her promise in front of them.
Therefore, Xiaotanggo, Xiaobao and Xiaobei still trust them very much.
"Are only Xiaobao and Xiaobei going? What about Xiaotangguo? Isn't she going with us?"
Shan Yilin looked up at the rearview mirror, controlled the steering wheel, and drove the car out of the parking lot.
He listened to Li Xia's words, blinked, and asked.
Li Xia nodded and said, "Yes, that's right. Little Candy is not going with us. She has an event tonight. I went to her room last night and asked her if her sister wanted to go out for hot pot. Little Candy said she promised her classmate that she would go to her classmate's birthday party tonight."
When Shan Yilin heard that Little Tangguo was going out tonight, he frowned slightly, turned his head to look at Li Xia in the co-pilot seat, and asked with open lips: "Little Tangguo is going to attend a classmate's birthday party? Why didn't you tell me about this earlier? Did your daughter tell you whether her classmate was a boy or a girl?"
Little Candy is growing up day by day. As a father, Shan Yilin is worried every day, fearing that his sweet little girl will be taken away by some young boy in school.
"Why do you worry so much? It doesn't matter whether it's a male or female classmate. When my daughter grows up, she has the freedom to make friends. As parents, we can only educate them well and prevent them from going astray, but we have no right to interfere with their freedom to make friends. You have to know that when children grow up, the first thing we parents have to do is to learn to let go. If we control them too much, they may not appreciate it. Besides, I believe that our little Tangguo is a good child who knows the limits, and we should believe in the education we have given them since childhood.
Xiaotangguo, Xiaobao and Xiaobei are all children with positive values. They have a sense of right and wrong, and know what they can and cannot do. We don’t need to worry too much about them. The process of raising a child is like flying a kite. If we pull the string tighter in our hands, the kite will not be able to fly higher, and it may even fall down. The children are all grown up now, and it is time for us to let go. "
Li Xia spoke from the bottom of his heart.
Little Candy, Little Bao and Little Bei are all flesh that fell from her body.
She naturally loved them very much.
She could understand Shan Yilin's feelings.
She was once like him, worried that her daughter and son would drift away from them as they grew up.
Later, Li Xia figured it out.
That's what growing up is all about.
When they were young, they were fledglings that needed to be protected by their parents.
But they can't live under their parents' wings all their lives.
One day, they will also fly in the free sky that belongs to them, and as parents, they should not stop them.
Shan Yilin listened to Li Xia's long speech and remained silent for a long time.
How could he not understand what his wife said?
But the truth is just the truth after all.
But deep down he was still unwilling to accept it.
Shan Yilin felt that time passed so quickly, as if in the blink of an eye, his daughter had grown up.
He really couldn't bear to let them go, as they would be further and further away from them in the future.
Li Xia noticed Shan Yilin's loss. She reached out and gently patted the back of his hand. "My daughters have their own lives. I will always be by your side and accompany you until old age."
“Xia Xia…”
"Ahem...Okay, the light is green, drive carefully."
It was rare for Li Xia to say such cheesy words in front of Shan Yilin. As soon as she finished speaking, her face turned red.
So before Shan Yilin could finish his words, she immediately cleared her throat and quickly changed the subject.
They had been married for so many years, their children had grown up, and they were already an old married couple. Suddenly, he said some disgusting and cheesy words. Li Xia felt uncomfortable all over, as if there were ants gnawing at her.
Shan Yilin is not a person who is good at sweet talk, but Li Xia knows his feelings for her very well. He speaks with his actions, and the two of them have been living in this mode tacitly for so many years.
Single family estate.
"Xiao Xia, A Lin, you are finally back."
Shan Yilin had just driven the car into the yard when Zhou Yaya, who was in the house, heard the sound of the engine outside the door and immediately pushed the door open and walked out.
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong? Are Xiaobao and Xiaobei disobedient?" When Li Xia saw Zhou Yaya coming out, she opened the car door and got out.
She blinked her eyes and asked with her lips parted.
Zhou Yaya shook her head. "No, no, Xiaobei and Xiaobao are grown up now, they are not disobedient. It's Dad who didn't see you two at lunch, and then he saw that you two hadn't come back for such a long time, so he got a little worried. He urged me several times in the afternoon to call you two. I thought it was rare for you two to go out and spend some time alone, so I didn't want to call and disturb you."
This is the heart of being a parent.
Even though his son is already in his 40s, the old man still can't help but worry.
"Sister-in-law, I'm sorry to have made you worry. I'll go explain this to Dad."
When Li Xia heard what Zhou Yaya said, she felt very embarrassed. The old man was so old, and they still made him worry about them.
