"Hehe, Daddy~" Yu'er was still gasping for breath, but he was smiling as he hugged a small ball and laughed happily.
This father and son are both hilarious. Yu'er chases after Xie Yuancheng for toys, and he takes them to his other hand, and Yu'er chases after his hand to snatch them back.
He likes to reach out his hand, even when there's still a little distance between them, he likes to raise his hand to grab it.
However, he is still not very steady on his feet. He falls after a few steps, but he doesn't cry when he falls. He gets up and continues to play with his toys.
Now he likes to play with building blocks. Xie Yuancheng has laid a thick plush carpet on the ground, and Yu'er likes to climb on it. When he gets tired, he runs to hold Xie Yuancheng's hand and play with him.
I sat on the edge of the bed. Xie Yuancheng had finally agreed to take me out for a walk, but seeing Yu'er smiling so happily, I didn't want to disturb them.
"Ying'er, it's time. I'll take you out for a walk."
"No, I want to watch Yu'er play."
"Hehe." Yu'er really knows how to lighten the mood. She sat on the blanket and hugged the building blocks, laughing happily.
He only cries when he's being scolded or when he's hungry and needs to pee; otherwise, he's all smiles, especially his dimples and big, bright eyes, which make you want to kiss him.
"Yu'er, Mother is going out. Will you let me go out or not?"
Yu'er blinked at Xie Yuancheng, then suddenly scrambled up and ran towards me, hugging my leg: "Mommy~"
"My dear son, I won't go out. I'll watch you play."
When Yu'er looked up, I could see his double chin, but his hands and arms were thin, and he didn't have much fat on his body. He just had a round face and looked like a little chubby.
"Mother~" Yu'er said to me. Xie Yuancheng came over, picked him up, and lifted him high in the air. I could hear his cheerful voice.
"Alright, stop teasing him. He'll get used to it and become even more clingy with Yu'er."
"Yu'er, shall we go for a walk with your mother?" Xie Yuancheng smiled, pressing his cheek against Yu'er's.
"Okay~" It's really rare for Yu'er to say "okay".
I propped myself up and said, "Yuancheng, Yu'er is so young, don't take him out unnecessarily."
"Yu'er, Mother doesn't want to take you out."
"Waaah, Mother~" Yu'er started crying again, hugging Xie Yuancheng's neck and shedding tears.
"Alright, let's go! Let's go together." I can't stand this son of mine; he cries over the smallest things.
"Yu'er, Mother agrees!"
Hehe~
Upon hearing that he was being taken out, Yu'er struggled to get off Xie Yuancheng's arms. As soon as Xie Yuancheng put him down, he ran to hug his little hat.
But he wears it backwards and it looks really cute.
"My good son, come here quickly, I'll give you something."
Yu'er ran and jumped into his arms, rubbing her face against his neck.
"My son is just as mischievous as his wife."
"No way, Yu'er is so well-behaved and cute. It's just a child's nature, not that he's naughty."
Yu'er released Xie Yuancheng's neck, leaned back on his arm and laughed. Xie Yuancheng dressed him, putting on his hat, gloves and scarf.
As soon as I mentioned we were going out, Yu'er skipped around the house. He even grabbed a scarf for me, but he's so small that it was hard to even hold him.
Before I even saw it, it was thrown on the ground. Xie Yuancheng just stood there laughing. He had Anxiang and Wan'er hold Yu'er while he helped me walk.
At first I thought I could sit in the car and stroll around the streets, but the more I walked, the stranger it seemed.
"Is this the way to the backyard?"
"You noticed?" Xie Yuancheng half-put his arm around my waist. "You just said you wanted to go for a walk. The backyard is a good place too. The winter plum blossoms are in bloom now. It's a good time to go and take a look."
"Xie Yuancheng! You tricked me again."
"No way, look how happy Yu'er is, chatting with Anxiang and the other two."
Waaah, that man is always so scheming, all he knows is how to make me happy!
"Let go, you're so annoying, you always know how to set traps for me."
I pulled his hand away, but Xie Yuancheng leaned closer again. "Ying'er, Yu'er is up ahead. You can't just watch him be unhappy, can you?"
Yu'er was laughing so happily with Anxiang and Wan'er, waving her little hands and feet around, that I couldn't even get angry.
“As you can see, our son was overjoyed as soon as he heard we could go out, no matter where we wanted to go. Besides, the ground is slippery outside right now, so let’s wait until the flowers are in bloom before we go out. We should also head back to Linyang.”
I turned to look at Xie Yuancheng. His eyes were still as bright and sparkling as ever, which made me lose my composure and actually agree with what he said.
There are some plum blossoms in the backyard, which must have been planted a long time ago. I rarely stay here, especially in winter. I only leave the house when I have nothing to do.
The ground was covered in snow, so Wan'er held Yu'er under the plum blossoms. The little boy clamored to hug the branches, which startled Anxiang, who then held Yu'er in her arms and comforted him.
Wan'er was not skilled in martial arts, so when Yu'er struggled, she could barely lift him. She was worried about hurting him, but she also didn't want to spoil his fun.
Anxiang was different; she had learned martial arts and held Yu'er very steadily: "Young Master, the ground is covered in snow. If you step on it, you won't be able to see yourself."
Yu'er stared at her with wide eyes: "Chirp chirp~"
"When you grow up, you can walk in the snow anytime."
Anxiang wrapped him in a warm blanket, and Yu'er peeked out with his big eyes. His little hands struggled restlessly underneath, but Anxiang stopped him, and he pouted.
Wan'er picked a small plum blossom and waved it in front of him, and he grinned.
"You're doing this on purpose to make me not go out next time."
"No, Yu'er is just curious right now. Even if it's cold, we can take him out so he can broaden his horizons. Anyway, if you, as his mother, want to go out, he, as his son, wants to even more."
He's the most eloquent; he can always find a way to be right, no matter what. The plum blossoms in the courtyard did smell lovely, but it was cold. Although Yu'er was dressed warmly, he was too small, so he went back after a while.
As soon as she entered the house, Yu'er ran around the room with the small branch of plum blossoms in her arms.
I watched him play, propping myself up on my hands. It was so much better when we were kids; we could have so much fun with the smallest things. He even used building blocks to build a plum blossom shape. When the blocks reached a certain height, he knocked them down and then laughed.
"It's all because you spoiled them. Now they've learned to be ruthless and cruel."
"Your son just plays with flowers, you're the only one who thinks about things."
"Hmph, after I give birth, I'll teach him to take good care of flowers, plants, and trees."
"Mother~" Yu'er ran over again, hugged my leg, and pointed to the plum blossoms on the ground with her other finger: "Mother~"
"You little brat, you scattered the flowers yourself. Let your mother pick some new ones for you."
"Hehe." He laughed heartily at the mention of something new. He's been wasting his life since he was little. As Yu'er's mother, I have to teach him a lesson.
"Yu'er, you're the one who ruined the flowers, so there can't be any new ones."
"Mother~"
Yu'er would hug my leg and act all cute, he looked so adorable, I couldn't bear to see him disappointed. So I had Xie Yuancheng pick one for him, so he could coax me to go to the backyard today, saying we should go for a walk, he made it sound so nice.
