Chapter 43 What to wear today?
Ran Le moved, bit the straw and took a sip of milk.
"Then you can't talk about other cats anymore."
This sentence was very clear, and Shi Zhufeng immediately promised: "Okay, I will never say that about other cats again."
Ran Le smiled and held the milk in both hands. Hey, Shi Zhufeng is not bad again.
Ran Xuejuan curled her lips slightly. She could obviously be coaxed into doing something, but she was still being stubborn until now.
"Eat, Lele, don't drink anymore. If you drink more, you won't be able to eat."
Ran Le obediently put down the milk, he still preferred rice.
Shi Zhufeng served food to everyone. Ran Le looked at the food with a spoon, his eyes full of stars: "It smells so good."
He started to serve the dishes, and at the same time looked at Qi Yu and Ran Xuejuan: "One bite for me and one for you guys."
But he did not forget to supervise Brother Qi Yu and the baby while they were eating.
Ran Xuejuan was helpless: "Okay."
Qi Yu didn't understand why he had to eat like this, but he was happy to cooperate with Ran Le.
Shi Zhufeng was counting on how many people to pick up food for.
The dishes he bought and cooked himself were one third more than what was given directly on the show. Shi Zhufeng thought he would not be able to finish them, but unexpectedly, there was nothing left at the end. The person who ate the least at the table was Ran Xuejuan. He looked at Ran Xuejuan and wanted to laugh.
I can’t even eat as much as Lele.
Ran Xuejuan remained silent. He didn't eat that much for breakfast in the past, but he ate a lot today. He was the only one who could eat a little more roast duck, and in the end he couldn't keep up with Lele's eating pace at all.
Ran Le looked at Ran Xue and sighed: "The baby still doesn't like to eat."
Ran Xuejuan: “…”
Shi Zhufeng: "He is full."
I guess I didn’t eat well before, so I can’t eat much now even if I want to.
Ran Le didn't believe it. He was so young and could eat so much, but Ran Xuexue ate even less than him. She must not like to eat.
He turned to look at Qi Yu, smiling with dimples: "Qi Yu Guo Guo was great today."
I actually ate three bowls of rice.
Shi Zhufeng asked curiously, "The one who eats more is the best?"
Ran Le nodded: "Yes."
Eating more is great. Grandma said that being able to eat is a blessing, and eating more is a blessing.
Shi Zhufeng gave a thumbs up: "Good standard."
Ran Le looked at Ran Xuejuan again: "So baby, you need to eat more."
Ran Xuejuan touched her stomach: "...I'll try my best."
How long will this continue to be supervised?
Shi Zhufeng: "Maybe for a lifetime."
Ran Xuejuan raised his eyes. How did this guy know what he was thinking?
After dinner, Qi Yu went to the kitchen.
Shi Zhufeng followed behind and saw Qi Yu washing fruits. He walked over and saw that they were mulberries.
"Leave it for Lele?"
Qi Yu: "Well, Lele was taken away by you at noon, and I didn't have time to take her back."
Shi Zhufeng's eyes trembled.
"?"
Wait, was the little guy calling Guoguo?
Not my brother.
He walked over silently: "I'll wash it, you go play with Lele."
Qi Yu: “Ah?”
Looking at Shi Zhufeng who took his plate, Qi Yu said expressionlessly, "Okay."
He went out to find Ran Le.
Shi Zhufeng washed every mulberry carefully.
He said, how can a greedy cat remember who is brother or not? It turns out it is Guoguo. It seems that I have to teach the little guy to recognize these fruits as soon as possible, otherwise he will call them Guoguo without knowing it.
When Qi Yu went out, Ran Le was playing with Nao Nao.
Naonao: "I was so impressive at noon. When I came out, I shouted "selling vegetables" and many aunties looked over."
Lele inhaled: "It's so annoying, the whole house is full of people shouting loudly."
Naonao put her hands on her hips and stuck out her belly: "I'm telling you, I was like this at the time..."
Qi Yu listened silently and understood why he couldn't sell it.
He stood behind Ran Le and listened to the two of them telling about their wise actions at noon. He remained skeptical about many details, such as Nao Nao saying that he did a backflip to attract customers, and Le Le saying that his dish weighed thirty-three kilograms.
He thought Lele was the one who weighed 33 kilograms.
He looked around. Where was Uncle Ran?
Then I saw Uncle Ran outside the glass door, talking on the phone.
Ran Xue asked wearily, "Have you said enough? If you have, I will hang up."
The other party: "Ran Xuejuan, do you still remember that I am your father?"
Ran Xuejuan yawned: "I still remember such an unfortunate thing."
The other party was choked, and after a while, a voice came out: "Quit the variety show, and you are not allowed to record it."
Ran Xuejuan: "I don't have money, will you pay me the penalty for breach of contract?"
The other party choked again. The contract signed by Ran Xuejuan was for high pay and high penalty for breach of contract. The penalty for breach of contract was even ten times the pay, a sky-high figure. He could afford it, but it was impossible for him to give it to Ran Xuejuan.
Ran Xuejuan yawned again.
He slept very well last night. Holding Ran Le, this little stove, he slept better than in the past two years. Why is he still so sleepy today?
"If you can't get it out, I'll hang up."
After hanging up the phone, Ran Xuejuan turned around and saw Ran Le lying through the glass looking at him.
He blinked. What happened?
He went around the door and Ran Le ran over and he caught him.
"What's wrong?"
Ran Le didn't know what was wrong. He just felt that Ran Xuexue seemed unhappy with him just now, so he came over. Now faced with this question, he thought for a while and said, "Eat fruit."
Ran Xuejuan: "You want me to eat mulberries?"
Ran Le nodded and took Ran Xuejuan inside.
Qi Yu didn't say anything and followed him.
Ran Xuejuan looked around: "Where's Naonao?"
Weren’t you just playing with Nao Nao?
Qi Yu: "Naonao was taken back to sleep by Aunt Jiang."
Ran Xuejuan was stunned. How could he not see it? He looked at Ran Le: "Is Lele sleepy?"
Ran Le tried hard to keep his eyes open: "I can only fall asleep after eating."
Shi Zhufeng happened to be carrying some mulberries over. He gave some to each family so that everyone could taste them together. Ran Le and Qi Yu had eaten a lot at lunch and could not eat anything at this moment.
"LeLe, mulberries are here."
Ran Le immediately perked up.
Shi Zhufeng: "Eat, and then we'll go back to sleep."
Ran Le reached out and took one: "Okay."
This fruit is so sweet, but it stains your hands.
He took another one.
Qi Yu ate one and stopped eating; he was not hungry.
Shi Zhufeng handed it to Ran Xuejuan and said, "Please give me some face and have a bite."
Ran Xuejuan lowered her eyes and picked one.
Sweet and sour, mulberries are like strawberries, and the taste of the fruit itself is stronger.
Ran Le ate two more, and his teeth turned black from eating so much.
Shi Zhufeng was overjoyed: "It really has become a tabby cat."
Ran Le looked up: "What?"
While speaking, he did not forget to take a mulberry and put it into his mouth after he finished speaking.
Ran Xuejuan was infected and started laughing. He reached out and gently wiped the mulberry juice from the corner of Ran Le's mouth.
“Not now.”
Ran Le ate another one: "Thank you, baby."
Shi Zhufeng: "Take another one."
Ran Xuejuan looked at the mulberries that were brought to her mouth, then raised her eyes to look at Shi Zhufeng.
Shi Zhufeng: "Finish your meal early and go back to sleep early."
Shi Zhufeng raised his chin towards Ran Le. The little guy could hardly open his eyes but was still eating mulberries stubbornly.
Ran Xuejuan found it funny and took the mulberries.
Shi Zhufeng handed another one to Qi Yu.
Each person ate one in three rounds and they finished them. Ran Le reached out and grabbed nothing. He opened his eyes and found that it was gone.
Shi Zhufeng picked him up and said, "Let's go, go back, wash up and go to sleep."
Without Ran Le, he would not eat. He had already eaten. He lay on the big daddy's shoulder and smelled the big daddy's scent: "Snap."
After saying that, he closed his eyes.
Ran Xuejuan was stunned by the look.
Qi Yu said, "I'm leaving now. Uncle Shi, Uncle Ran, see you this afternoon."
Shi Zhufeng felt relieved when he saw that Qi Bojian and Mai Sui had not left yet.
"Go ahead, take a nap too, you're growing stronger."
Qi Yu: “Yeah.”
After Qi Yu left, Shi Zhufeng walked back side by side with Ran Le and Ran Xuejuan in his arms.
"You were unhappy with the phone call just now?"
Ran Xue said calmly: "No."
Shi Zhufeng: "I might be wrong, but the little guy won't be wrong. He noticed that you are unhappy."
Ran Xuejuan raised her eyes slightly and looked at the sleeping Ran Le. It was a wonderful feeling to know that there was someone in this world who was connected to her by blood.
It makes people feel weak unconsciously.
Shi Zhufeng saw that Ran Xuejuan didn't say anything, so he knew that the other party didn't want to talk, so he changed the subject: "How should I wash him when I get back later?"
Ran Xuejuan: "Don't wake him up, let him sleep."
Shi Zhufeng smiled and said, "You need to rinse your mouth. It's all black."
Ran Xuejuan touched Ran Le's hair. He didn't know when Ran Le took off his hat, and his bunny ears hung down on his back. He held Ran Le's hand, which was also small, not even a quarter of his hand. This little thing will grow up slowly in the future. He hopes to be as tall as Shi Zhufeng. It's always good to be taller.
Shi Zhufeng walked in front, Ran Xuejuan lagged behind slightly, holding Ran Le's hand, and the two walked in silence all the way to where they lived.
The atmosphere was not awkward, but rather a little warm, but this warmth was maintained by the sleeping Ran Le.
Without Ran Le's liveliness, Ran Xuejuan returned to his casual look.
On the way back, Zhufeng carried Ran Le to wash his face. The little guy opened his mouth in a daze to rinse his mouth.
Shi Zhufeng smiled.
"You are still good."
Wash Ran Le clean, take off his clothes and stuff them into the quilt.
Ran Le began to feel around the bed, trying to touch something.
Shi Zhufeng said to Ran Xuejuan who was leaning against the door frame, "Go take a shower and sleep with him. I saw you yawning just now, and he can't sleep peacefully without someone to accompany him."
Ran Xuejuan: "No, you stay with him."
Shi Zhufeng looked at Ran Xue and sighed.
Ran Xuejuan raised her eyebrows, then lowered them again, staring at her hands in a daze.
He stood there for a while, and when he noticed, Zhufeng came closer and raised his head: "What are you doing..."
"Time chasing the wind!"
Shi Zhufeng carried the person into the bathroom and said, "Be quiet. You won't be able to comfort the little one if you wake him up."
Ran Xuejuan's eyes were as cold as snow. Shi Zhufeng's hand on his waist was too noticeable. He couldn't help but panic: "What are you crazy about?"
Shi Zhufeng looked at the person whose eyebrows and eyes were like a painting.
Because of panic, there was a hint of beauty hidden in his cold appearance.
It seemed like it was melting, but it froze back in an instant. You can't warm up a person like this any more by slowly covering him up.
Shi Zhufeng put the person in front of the sink and said, "Wash yourself. If you don't want to, I can help you wash like I did for Lele."
Ran Xuejuan took a half step back and leaned against the sink. Shi Zhufeng was taller than him and the light in the bathroom was dim, so he was like a wall.
He closed his eyes: "You go out, I will wash it myself."
Shi Zhufeng replied in a good mood: "Okay, hurry up, I'll help you coax the little guy for a while, just for a while."
After the person left, Ran Xue felt tired and limp, leaning against the sink and unable to help whispering.
"It's a mess."
What do you mean by helping him to coax him? Isn’t Shi Zhufeng Ran Le’s father?
He turned his head and stared at the sink. His waist and thighs still had the touch of being hugged just now.
"Hurry up."
Shi Zhufeng's voice came from outside.
Ran Xuejuan turned on the water and washed her face to make herself a little more awake.
When they were outside, Zhufeng held Ran Le's hand, stared at the little guy and thought, "It would be great if your little daddy liked to eat and sleep as much as you do."
He played with Ran Le's little hands for a while, then turned around and saw Ran Xuejuan coming out after washing up.
Shi Zhufeng laughed and said, "Go to sleep."
Ran Xuejuan: "You..."
Shi Zhufeng replied: "I'm a bastard."
Ran Xuejuan had nothing to say.
Shi Zhufeng let go of Ran Le's hand, and the little guy started to touch around again.
Shi Zhufeng: "He's looking for you."
Ran Xuejuan was in mixed emotions and fell asleep next to Ran Le. As soon as Ran Le grabbed his collar, he stopped moving. Shi Zhufeng covered Ran Xuejuan with a quilt. Although the weather was not as cold as before, it was not hot enough to not cover himself with a quilt.
As soon as Ran Xuejuan hugged Ran Le, she seemed to be hypnotized. Her eyelids touched each other and it was difficult for her to open them.
When he heard this, Zhufeng went out. Without opening his eyes, he gradually fell asleep with Ran Le.
Shi Zhufeng came to the kitchen. The little guy was obviously not very hungry after drinking milk yesterday, so today he made some snacks for the two of them to eat when they get up, and then drink milk in the afternoon. Five meals a day would be just right.
Suddenly I was glad that the aunt at home helped Ran Le pack so many ingredients and put them in the suitcase.
Ran Xue fell asleep in the bedroom.
He also had a dream in which he was the same age as Ran Le.
His mother had a beautiful hairstyle today and was teaching him to paint in the yard.
"Xuexue, mom will teach you how to distinguish colors."
He drew for a while and asked incoherently, "When will Dad come back?"
His mother thought for a while and said, "It should be soon. He said the company's affairs will be dealt with soon."
He looked at the sketchpad. "I missed him. I haven't seen him in months."
His mother hugged him and smiled: "Actually, mom misses dad too."
"Who missed me?"
A voice came from the door, and he turned around immediately: "Dad!"
His father ran over and lifted him up high.
"Xuexue has grown taller again. Do you miss your dad?"
He looked at his father's face confidently and nodded affirmatively: "I did, very much."
His father laughed twice and carried him into the house.
His mother called out from outside the house, "He hasn't finished learning yet."
His father: "No need to study. There's no need to rush for such a day. I'm finally back from my business trip. Of course I have to have a good time with my son for a day."
The dream was shattered. Ran Xuejuan was eighteen years old. This year, his paintings became famous in international competitions. The word "genius" began to be used to describe him. After bidding farewell to his teacher, he returned home. Besides his aunt, there was only his mother at home.
He asked his mother: "Which company does my father work for? Why does he travel so often?"
He suddenly realized that the total time his father spent with them in a year was less than two months. Yesterday was his birthday, and he sent a message to the other party but received no reply.
His mother was drawing and was stunned for a moment when she heard what he said. She found that she didn't know anything and only vaguely knew what the other person did. She began to reflect on whether she neglected her husband in her daily life. Drawing was her dream, her hobby, and her ideal country, but her husband and son were equally important.
She remembered something and went to the study to find an address: "The sun is shining brightly today, let's go find your father and give him a surprise."
He quickly agreed: "Okay."
His mother doesn't like noise and never goes shopping. When they go out, they always go to see the scenery. His father always finds scenic spots that are quiet and suitable for painting. It's rare that his mother doesn't want to go out for painting today.
His mother: "I asked my aunt to buy some vegetables. I'll make you some cold lotus root when I get back."
He pretended to be dissatisfied: "It's the cold lotus root again."
His mother tapped his nose and said, "Bad boy, I know you love to eat."
Cooking is also her hobby, or she is happy to cook for her son and husband.
The mother and son followed the address to the company.
He sighed, "It's so far, a three-hour drive. It's so hard for my dad."
His mother nodded and said, "We should pay more attention to your father in the future. If I had known that his company was so far away, I should have advised him to buy a house in the city."
She felt guilty because love made him indulge her hobbies.
Before the two of them stepped into the door, they saw someone at the door of the company. His eyes narrowed, and he couldn't believe that what he saw was real.
... ...
A cold, suffocating feeling came with the dream.
Ran Xue woke up tiredly. There was no trace of the daze of just waking up in her eyes, but only coldness.
Over a period of two years, a healthy person slowly became sick from the inside out. A once cheerful and cheerful person gradually became depressed until he passed away on a hospital bed.
At first, the person wanted him to study business, but he liked painting. That was the first time they quarreled, and the stalemate lasted for half a year. One day, the person suddenly gave in, and now he knows it was because his wife finally agreed to have a child.
Because his wife had clearly stated when they got married that she didn't want children, so she, who had been naive, passionate, and only cared about art all her life, met him, lived in fantasy for nineteen years, and had an eighteen-year-old child. The fantasy was finally broken on the day after the child's birthday.
She could not accept this deception, and even less could she accept her own moral condemnation, so she fell ill, like a bunch of bright white roses that slowly withered until their once brilliant appearance could no longer be seen.
He often thought that he should have killed him.
"Hey."
Ran Xuejuan came back to her senses and saw that the little guy had woken up.
Ran Le hugged Ran Xuejuan and gave her a big kiss, then announced: "Hey, I'm awake."
"The baby woke up earlier than me today."
Ran Xuejuan's throat was a little choked.
"Well, I woke up earlier than you."
The door opened and Shi Zhufeng's voice came: "Help him put on his clothes. My cookies will be ready soon."
Ran Le: "Okuo sent a few clothes."
Shi Zhufeng was merciless: "You can't, you are too slow."
Ran Le: “Huh.”
Look down on him and get angry.
Ran Xuejuan chuckled: "Which animal clothes does Lele want to wear this afternoon?"
Ran Le thought for a moment and said loudly: "Giant panda!"
