Chapter 262 Dilute and disappear
"Rui! How about taking the name Rui?" the woman asked happily.
"Su Rui?" The man pondered for a moment and praised, "Great! This character is good. Reeds grow quickly to welcome spring, and mountain swedes thrive on high ground!"
"I hope our Rui'er can grow up strong and tenacious like grass." The woman gently stroked the face of the child in her arms. Su Rui saw a young and beautiful face with kind and tender eyes.
Mother?
"Father is Rui'er's high ground, and I will definitely lift our Rui'er to the highest place." The man approached, with a handsome look, his eyes also full of cherishment and love.
Father...father?
"And me! And me! I am also my sister's haunt. I let my sister ride on my neck every day and take her out to play!" The baby's voice was shouting beside the bed, as if afraid that he was not included.
Su Rui was very familiar with this voice.
Yes...brother.
"Your sister is still young and can't ride on your neck yet, but as her older brother, you must protect her and take care of her, do you understand?" the father counseled.
My brother immediately stood at attention and said in a resounding voice, "Understood!"
The room was filled with laughter, but Su Rui's head was in a mess.
Suddenly she was able to lower her head and see her hands and feet.
Chubby, round and short.
She turned her chubby little hands over and over again, but couldn't figure out what was going on.
"Rui'er, Rui'er, look at this, brother."
Su Rui turned around and saw Su Rui lying on the side of the crib, holding a cloth tiger in her hand and shaking it, saying, "Brother made this. Do you like it? If you like it, brother will make more for you."
Su Rui looked at it, unable to react, not knowing whether she liked it or not.
Su Ye felt a little disappointed, "I don't like it, then..."
He turned his hand and the cloth tiger turned into a small Cuju with a bell inside, which tinkled when shaken.
Su Rui was startled by the sudden change, and then she started laughing.
"Brother knows you will like this." He stuffed the Cuju into Su Rui's hand, took her hand and squeezed it, liking it so much that he looked at her and said, "Rui'er, call me brother, brother."
elder brother?
"Song—Song"
Su Rui babbled so hard that she didn't even know the meaning of these two words. However, Su Ye's eyes widened gradually. He stood up excitedly and shouted, "Call me brother! Rui'er called me brother!"
This shout called the parents outside in.
"Why are you shouting? You scared your sister." Dad whispered to Su Ye.
Su Ye immediately covered his mouth, but still couldn't hide his excitement and said: "Dad, my sister called me brother, and the first thing she said was to call me, call me brother."
Su Ye's mouth was almost grinning from ear to ear, but his father's face darkened.
"Nonsense, your sister is still young, how could she call for help?" He denied it, but in action he quickly stepped forward, lifted Su Rui up from the crib, and coaxed her, "Rui'er, come here, call daddy, daddy."
Su Rui was suddenly lifted up, and blinked as she looked at her father who was holding her up high with eyes full of expectation.
"You're such a grown-up, yet you're still arguing with a child? Don't scare Rui'er." Mother stepped forward to scold, snatched Rui'er from her father's hands, held her in her arms, and gently stroked her back.
Feeling the warmth and comfortable smell, Su Rui naturally moved closer.
Dad said in a low voice with grievance: "I am not teaching her."
"He'll naturally be able to call people when he grows up. Why are you so anxious?" He scolded her again, and turned around. Mother put her forehead against Su Rui and coaxed her, "Isn't it? Our Rui'er is the smartest."
"Anyway, my sister can call me brother! She can call me brother!" Su Ye didn't care about anything else and was still excited.
"You little bastard!"
Amidst the chaos of chasing and shouting, Su Rui stood on the ground. What she saw was no longer the house, but the garden, a garden that was both familiar and unfamiliar.
Yes, in the front yard.
"Sister, come here! Come quickly!" A voice came from the tree.
Su Rui looked up and saw Su Ye standing on a peach tree full of fruits. He was holding the peaches he had just picked in one hand and waving to Su Rui with the other.
"Don't ask your sister to go, or the peaches will fall and hit her." The mother sitting in the pavilion shouted hurriedly.
Before Su Rui could look, her two feet were lifted off the ground and she was suddenly hugged and sat on the neck of the person who came.
It’s dad.
The strong shoulders made her feel extremely safe.
"If you stand high, you won't get hit. Come on, Rui'er, pick some that are taller than your brother's."
She reached out and touched the peaches on the tree.
"No, no, I'll pick something higher!" Su Ye climbed up hurriedly. The branches swayed, and the leaves swept past his eyes, carrying the sweet fragrance of peaches.
"You're fiddling with those spices again. Other girls like playing music, chess, calligraphy, painting, drinking tea and appreciating flowers, but you stay at home all day fiddling with these things." Su Ye turned into a teenager, frowning and reproaching.
Su Rui was stunned and lowered her head, only to see that the table in front of her was covered with various spices, and she was pouring them into the bowl.
Looking at my hands again, they were no longer short and fat, but white and slender, and looked like they were about ten years old.
Ten years old?
She is already ten years old...
"But you don't have to like what others like. No matter what it is, as long as you like it, that's good. This is what your brother brought back for you. Take a look, is it what you want?" Su Ye took out the thing and placed it in front of Su Rui like presenting a treasure.
It is a rare spice.
He didn't scold her?
"You've been away for more than half a month, sleeping soundly, just for this thing?" Mother's voice came from outside the door, followed by a person.
Mom is still alive?
Why, does she think so?
"Isn't this what Rui'er likes? I'm her brother, so I have to get it for her. Mom, I'm sixteen, I'm an adult."
"A little spice makes you so proud." Dad came in from outside, couldn't help laughing and walked up to Su Rui. He also put the things in his hands on the table. "Rui'er, look, Dad got you some ambergris, but it's a tribute."
"You two, father and son, really spoil her to no limit." Although she was scolding, her mother's face was full of smiles.
Looking at the two spices, scenes kept flashing before my eyes: laughter, playfulness, love and pampering. It seemed as if something was being diluted and disappearing by these scenes.
At the age of fifteen, she lay on her mother's lap, playing with the exquisite jade dice that her father had given her as a coming-of-age gift, and comfortably enjoyed a leisurely lunch break.
Her mother's warm hands gently stroked her hair, and she said with a smile, "You are now a grown-up girl, and you are eligible for marriage. Yet you are still clinging to me in such an unruly way."
"I don't want to get married. I just want to stay at home and stay with my mother, father, and brother." Su Rui said mischievously, and snuggled into her mother's arms.
"You little rascal."
"My Rui'er is not a little rascal. Rui'er is right. There is no such thing as getting married. Daddy is reluctant to marry our Rui'er off." Daddy said solemnly.
"Then stay at home and be an old maid?" his mother teased him.
"An old girl is an old girl. No matter how old she is, I will support her." Su Ye walked in. He was in his early twenties and wearing light armor.
"Look, mom, I have my brother to support me." Su Rui continued to act like a spoiled child and got into her mother's arms. She was about to try to get away with it by acting cute as usual, when she suddenly heard a voice.
"Su Rui!"
