When Li Jinfeng and Lu Jianguo returned home, Tuantuan, Meimei and the youngest child Manman did not see the little tail that should have appeared behind them.
"Mom, where is my second brother?" Meimei came over.
The little girl turned seven in May, and she and her twin brother Yuanyuan were at odds with each other for most of the day.
But since she asked, Li Jinfeng naturally had to answer patiently, "He stayed at the training ground and is practicing table tennis now."
Meimei: "Will he come back for lunch?"
Even though the brother and sister don't get along with each other all the time, they actually care about each other in their hearts.
Especially when someone is under your eyes every day, you will feel uncomfortable if they are suddenly not around.
Li Jinfeng: "No! Yuanyuan is staying at the training ground to practice table tennis this summer. I'll pick him up in the evening."
After Li Jinfeng finished speaking, Meimei immediately calculated in her mind how much time she would spend away from her brother Yuanyuan every day.
The result is a full day.
The little girl couldn't stand it anymore, her eyes turned red, "Mom, please let my second brother come back, I don't want to be separated from him."
Li Jinfeng originally thought that Yuanyuan had the biggest problem, but it turned out that the biggest problem lay with the little girl Meimei.
She and Yuanyuan are twins, and their relationship has been different from others since childhood. When Yuanyuan is not around, she feels like a piece of her heart is missing.
Li Jinfeng quickly coaxed her, "How can this be called separation? Your second brother comes back to eat in the evening, and Mommy prepares breakfast for him!"
"Wow... He's not here during the day." Meimei said pitifully.
Li Jinfeng: "There's nothing we can do about it, Meimei. You have to know that even when Second Brother is at home, he won't often play with you. Have you forgotten what he was doing all day yesterday?"
Meimei was stunned for a moment, and suddenly she remembered that Yuanyuan went to play with the children in the nearby compound after breakfast yesterday morning. Except for lunch, she was nowhere to be seen all morning, and the same was true in the afternoon.
The little girl wiped her tears and felt less sad.
"Sister, Yuanyuan is not here, brother will take you out to play." Tuantuan spoke sensibly.
"Thank you, big brother!" Meimei nodded sensibly.
Li Jinfeng asked Tuantuan to take Meimei out for a walk to divert their attention.
She and Lu Jianguo went to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
They cooked early, and there were no other families in the shared kitchen yet.
It was convenient for the two of them to talk, and Yuanyuan's story touched Li Jinfeng.
As the children grow up, they will gradually leave her.
It’s not that this is bad, but as a mother, it’s inevitable to feel melancholy, especially since she still doesn’t have her own career.
Lu Jianguo saw Li Jinfeng's gloomy mood and didn't care if anyone else would enter the public kitchen. He reached out and pulled Li Jinfeng into his arms. "What are you thinking about?"
Li Jinfeng's first reaction was to deny it. "No," she said, but then she felt that there was no need for the couple to keep such a thing a secret. "The children are growing up day by day, and I always feel like I'm getting further and further away from them!"
Lu Jianguo: "This is a good thing!"
"ah?"
"They're growing up when they're far away from us! As parents, we can't be with them forever. Don't put pressure on yourself. These are things they have to go through."
After Lu Jianguo finished speaking, worried that Li Jinfeng still couldn't get over it, he added, "Children will leave when they grow up, but I won't. I will always be by your side."
