No one in the family went out that day, because they had all been climbing mountains all day and were so tired when they got back that they slept until the sun was high in the sky.
Song Lili was the last one to fall asleep, but also the first one to go to bed.
"Why are you only getting up now?" Song Yongren couldn't help but complain. His father-in-law was already up, how could you still be sleeping?
"I'm so tired..." Song Lili yawned and sat lazily on the stool, looking listless.
She's not completely out of it, but she's not quite fully awake yet; she's still a bit dazed.
"You brat, aren't you afraid of making your father-in-law angry?" Song Yongren whispered to Song Lili.
How can she be so comfortable at her in-laws' house, treating it like her own home? She sleeps in as long as she wants.
Besides, Lily has never done this before!
Little did Song Yongren know that it wasn't that Song Lili hadn't tried it, but rather that the conditions at the time didn't allow it, so she could only think about it in her mind and couldn't actually do it.
Now that we have the conditions, why can't we?
Song Lili waved her hand dismissively, "Just relax, he won't be angry. I've always been like this, I'm used to it."
Since arriving in the capital, Song Lili has become like this: she never procrastinates when there's something to do, but when there's nothing to do, she's just lazy.
At first, Zhang Shengtian might have felt a little uncomfortable, but after doing it many times, he didn't find it a problem anymore.
But this terrified Song Yongren. "Are you still going to do this? You brat!" This is bound to cause conflict!
"Don't worry, Dad. Did he say anything or seem unhappy? Don't scare yourself unnecessarily. There's no need to worry."
Song Yongren is really something else. They've been married for over ten years, why is he still acting like a little wife?
The family has already worked things out, so problems are unlikely to arise easily.
After thinking about it carefully, Song Yongren realized that it was indeed the case. Zhang Shengtian didn't seem angry, which put him at ease.
"You should tone it down a bit; this can't go on."
Song Lili nodded perfunctorily, "Okay, okay, I'll go to the kitchen and see what we have to eat."
These days, she hardly makes breakfast anymore; it's usually Yang Mei or Zhang Qinghua who makes it.
She should just eat it.
After Song Lili finished eating, she found that everyone had come out and were sitting in the yard sunbathing.
"Sigh, I guess I'm getting old. Climbing a mountain makes me tired. If it were before, I definitely wouldn't have had any problems."
Song Yongren also sighed, "Yes. Back in our day, we could climb several mountains a day without any problem, but now we get tired just from climbing a mountain. We're getting old."
"If you all get old, then what am I?" She was also very tired. Was she getting old too?
The others burst into laughter, the mockery of which was self-evident.
Song Lili rolled her eyes. "What's so funny? Am I wrong? What did I do?"
"You're just lazy. You're too lazy to move all day. You're either sitting or lying down, of course your health is bad," Song Yongren said with a laugh.
Song Lili shrugged. "See? You guys are all in great health. Where are you old? You look very young, okay?"
“Lili, you…” Zhang Shengtian couldn’t help but laugh; this child just has a sweet voice.
"Grandpa, Grandpa, you're both amazing!" Xiao Hui ran over and stood between the two of them, holding one of their hands and saying earnestly.
They're already swearing at their parents, that's impressive, and they haven't even gotten a beating yet...
“Amazing…” Xinyi nodded and echoed.
"Haha..." Everyone was amused by the two children. How could they be so cute?
The atmosphere at home was warm and cheerful that day, and everyone seemed quite happy. Although they didn't go out, Song Lili felt that it was even more meaningful this way.
After all, everyone seems to be closer now. Their relationships have become more intimate.
"Xiao Tao, go and play with them," Song Lili said, patting Fang Xiao Tao on the shoulder.
The child watched enviously from the side, but didn't go over. Song Lili urged him on.
She knew the reason, but these were things Fang Xiaotao had to break through herself; it wasn't something adults could just tell her.
Children have their own world, and they have their own ways of getting along. If adults interfere, it may backfire. It's better to let them solve things themselves.
"I..." Fang Xiaotao was uneasy because her uncle's three children didn't really like her.
They wouldn't play together, and although they were always friendly, Fang Xiaotao felt that they didn't get along.
"Go ahead, you'll get used to it after playing for a while."
Song Lili sighed. Fang Xiaotao's first day was a bad start, leaving a bad impression on the children.
She's noticed this over the past few days; the children are polite to her, but they just aren't affectionate.
Let them handle these things themselves.
"Xiao Chen, bring your cousin along." Song Lili shouted and then ignored them.
After hearing Song Lili's words, Xiao Chen frowned slightly. "Why did we bring her along? Aren't we afraid of a fight?"
Although he had his doubts, he didn't object and just watched Fang Xiaotao walk over nervously.
Xiao Chen thought for a moment, then took one of Xiao Hui's toys and handed it to her, saying, "Here, take this."
He didn't know how to get along with Fang Xiaotao. So he decided to let her have her own fun.
Fang Xiaotao reached out and took it, saying, "Thank you." She looked at it with some curiosity; she had never played with a toy like this before!
But Xiao Hui wasn't happy. She walked over and snatched it away, saying, "This is mine, I won't give it to you." She even hid the toy behind her back, as if afraid Fang Xiaotao would take it away.
Fang Xiaotao was stunned for a moment, then looked at the angry Xiao Hui without saying anything, and didn't seem angry at all.
It wasn't until this moment that Xiao Chen raised an eyebrow. This cousin was a little different from when she first arrived!
After Xiao Hui snatched the toy, Xiao Chen kept observing Fang Xiao Tao to see how she would react.
Now, he was surprised, but he also accepted that Fang Xiaotao was playing with them.
She took the toy out of Xiao Hui's hand and handed it back to Fang Xiaotao, saying, "You can play with it."
Then she looked down at Xiaohui and said, "Didn't you have toys to play with? Why did you have to snatch them? If Mom finds out, all your toys will be confiscated."
"I... Hmph..." Xiao Hui glanced cautiously in Song Lili's direction and gave a cold snort. Then, unwillingly, she ran off to continue playing.
Xiao Chen sat down and smiled slightly, "Xiao Hui is still young, don't mind him."
"No, no." Fang Xiaotao waved her hand, genuinely not angry.
After she started treating Xiaohui and Xinyi like her younger siblings, she felt less angry.
As the older sister, she should give way to her younger siblings, so when Xiaohui's actions were sudden, she was only stunned for a moment before laughing.
She handed the toy back, saying, "Let him play with it if he likes it." She was just curious and took a look; it was a boy's toy, and she didn't really like it.
"Take it. Xiaohui has a lot of toys. He can play with any of them."
