Sheng An Ning watched Pei Nuo and her brother getting along, and decided not to mention the matter of the fortune teller. At the moment, these were all her guesses, maybe it was an illusion?
After lunch, the family was busy making dumplings, and several children joined in the fun.
Lin Wanyin pinched a piece of dough for each person and coaxed Pei Nuo to go play with them. The big child and the four children were all satisfied. They sat on a small stool nearby, kneading the dough and laughing.
Lin Wanyin was happy to see this: "It's really lively at home with so many children. I'm not used to you taking Xiaonuo away. When you go to Hong Kong City, remember to write back often and tell us about Xiaonuo's situation."
Then he couldn't help but complain: "Communication is so inconvenient nowadays. It's hard to get in touch, and long-distance calls are even more difficult."
Sheng Mingyuan kindly reminded Lin Wanyin: "When Cheng'an was abroad, he had a phone to video chat with us, but he didn't contact us many times. You asked him to write a letter. Isn't that asking for his life?"
Lin Wanyin thought so too and glared at Sheng Chengan: "If you don't write a letter, you will no longer be my son. Send Xiaonuo back. Otherwise, I will go pick him up myself."
Sheng Chengan felt a headache coming on, looking at the snickering Sheng An Ning: "An Ning is not here, you ask her to come back often with the three children, and you still have Duo Duo, are you afraid of being lonely?"
Sheng An Ning rolled her eyes at him: "Is that the same as Pei Nuo?"
Lin Wanyin hit Sheng Chengan with a rolling pin and said, "I'm talking to you. Stop distracting yourself and remember to write a letter. One letter a month is fine, and you have to write three pages every time."
Sheng Chengan couldn't help but mutter: "Three, why so much nonsense, and besides, even if I wrote it, can I receive it on time?"
Lin Wanyin rolled her eyes at him and said, "Then you don't have to worry about it. Just remember to write the letter."
Sheng Anning watched her mother and brother bickering with a smile.
It was already dark after eating the dumplings, so Lin Wanyin urged Sheng An Ning to take the children back quickly. She was afraid that she could not take care of three children by herself, so she asked Sheng Cheng An to send them off.
"It's getting dark, so it's better to let your brother take you there."
Sheng Cheng'an coaxed Pei Nuo to wait for him at home. He held Zhou Zhou and An An, focusing on these two children, and asked Sheng An Ning to hold Mo Mo, and they took the bus back to Zhou's house together.
After getting off the bus, Momo refused to let his mother hold him anymore and insisted on walking by himself. However, Anan and Zhouzhou felt sorry for their uncle and insisted on being held by their uncle.
In order to match Mo Mo's small steps, Sheng Chengan also slowed down his pace.
While walking, he chatted with Sheng An Ning about random things. When they were almost home, he said seriously, "You have been holding it in all day. Do you have anything to say to me?"
Sheng An Ning was surprised. She hid it well, but Sheng Cheng An still saw it? She shook her head: "No, what could happen to me?"
Sheng Chengan sneered: "I changed your diapers when you were a child. Do you think I know if you are okay?"
Sheng Anning: "..."
Sheng Chengan sighed, "Are you still hesitating now? Are you short of money? Are you too embarrassed to ask? I also know that your expenses will be high when you move here, so I left some money for you with my parents. You can go and get it later. If you need money in the future, just tell me, don't be embarrassed."
Sheng An Ning was still thinking about how to lie, but now after hearing what Sheng Cheng An said, she simply stopped explaining: "Brother is still the best, I will repay you in the future."
Sheng Chengan snorted and laughed: "Forget it, just don't cause any trouble. And don't try to be arrogant when you encounter difficulties. Zhou Shixun is not here, but there is still Zhou Luancheng, who can take care of you anyway."
"This world is different from ours. If you were really put in a sack in a dark alley, it would be hard to find any clues. So, listen to what I say, okay?"
Sheng An Ning nodded repeatedly: "I understand. Besides, I have three children now, so why should I show off?"
I was thinking that if I met the fortune-teller in the alley later, I would definitely tell Sheng Chengan and ask him to help me see if there was anything wrong with the old man.
In the end, when they got home, they didn't meet the fortune-teller, and Sheng An Ning didn't have a chance to tell Sheng Cheng'an.
On Monday, Sheng Chengan took Pei Nuo away, and Sheng Anning didn't have time to see them off because she had class.
The next week passed peacefully. The weather became much warmer. The children were no longer willing to play inside the house, and the small courtyard could not satisfy them, so they just wanted to go outside the gate to look around.
Fortunately, there are few cars at this time, and the children are running back and forth in the alley, making it especially lively when school is over every day.
The boys played hide-and-seek and rolled hoops, while the girls threw sandbags and jumped rubber ropes.
Even the smallest children ran back and forth, making noises happily.
Every time they heard these noises, An An and Zhou Zhou would run outside quickly, and Zhou Hongyun and the others could only chase them, fearing that the children would be lost or bumped into.
Every time Sheng An Ning came back, she could only push the cart into the alley. There were too many children and her skills were not very good. She was afraid of bumping into a child who suddenly ran out.
It's strange, I met that fortune-teller these days.
The three children were originally watching the fun, but when they saw their mother, they immediately ran towards Sheng An Ning like little penguins, shouting happily: "Mom, Mom, Mom is out of school."
Sheng An Ning stopped the bike and smiled as she watched the children running over. It was such a short distance, but they still had to climb on their bikes and sit for a while.
Momo saw his younger brother and sister running towards their mother. Hesitating for a moment, he also walked towards his mother, but his movements were a little slower. He saw his mother pick up his younger sister and brother and put them on the back seat of the bicycle.
Momo simply stopped, clasped his hands in front of him, stared at his mother, then turned his head to look at the yard opposite. His little mouth suddenly opened into an O, and he stared at the old man climbing on the low wall without blinking.
The old man also saw Mo Mo, suddenly grinned and waved at Mo Mo.
Momo stared at the old man, took two steps back, turned around and ran towards his mother.
Sheng An Ning had just put Zhou Zhou in the back seat, but the little guy was not happy and insisted on sitting on the car seat. She could only let An An sit well, and then held Zhou Zhou in the car seat, and reminded the two children: "You must hold on tight."
When I looked up again, I saw Mo Mo running towards me like a little whirlwind, at a speed I had never seen before.
Sheng Anning was surprised and quickly shouted: "Hey, Momo, run slower, don't fall, mom is waiting for you here."
Mo Mo rushed over and hugged Sheng An Ning's legs tightly, then turned his head to look at the yard where he had just seen the old man.
There was nothing on the courtyard wall except for a calico cat, which was looking ahead with cold eyes...
Mo Mo was stunned for a moment, and pulled Sheng An Ning's hand: "Mom, look..."
