Soon the three of them finished washing up and lay down on the bed.
With Zhou Yexuan around, although he agreed to record the program, he absolutely could not accept being watched by netizens while sleeping. In addition, it was already nine o'clock, so they discussed with the program team to turn off the live broadcast signal.
The bed here is only 1.5 meters, far smaller than the kg-size bed in the Zhou family's old house.
When Shen Qingqing first arrived, she thought the bed was big enough for her and Zhou Jiayan, but now with the addition of Zhou Yexuan, a big man over 1.85 meters tall, the bed seemed very crowded.
Zhou Jiayan was wearing a short-sleeved Teddy Bear pajamas today, revealing his round arms and chubby calves. He lay between the two of them, very excited, rolling in Shen Qingqing's arms one moment and Zhou Yexuan's arms the next. It was so lively.
It was already June, and it was still a little hot even at night. In addition, the air conditioner in the room was old, and I couldn't find the remote control to turn it on after searching for a long time, so it was very stuffy.
Zhou Jiayan's body temperature was quite high, like a "small stove". Once the sticker was applied, it was just like putting a hot pack on in summer.
Shen Qingqing couldn't help but say in disdain, "Yanyan, aren't you hot? Don't crowd around in the hot summer."
Zhou Jiayan was not angry at being disliked by her mother. Instead, she giggled and even deliberately got closer to Shen Qingqing, "Oh, Mom, this bed is small, we will definitely touch each other. Besides, Yanyan only stays close to you because she likes you."
Shen Qingqing couldn't help but complain in her heart that Yanyan was getting worse and worse, and was no longer the innocent little baby when they first met, but she didn't push him away in the end.
After searching for about ten minutes, Zhou Yexuan finally found the remote control in the corner of the cabinet.
The air conditioner in the room looks like it has been there for many years, and the body of the air conditioner has turned yellow, but fortunately the inside of the machine is still in good condition.
When the cold wind blew out from the air conditioner, Shen Qingqing felt as if she had come back to life.
It might be because the air conditioner was a bit old and the temperature control was not accurate, and soon Shen Qingqing felt cold again.
At this time, Zhou Jiayan had rolled to Zhou Yexuan's side and began to pester his father to tell stories.
Shen Qingqing thought of the furnace-like warmth on Zhou Jiayan's body, and her heart was moved again. However, she had just disdained Zhou Jiayan. If she got close to him now, wouldn't it make her feel embarrassed?
However, as the air conditioner in the bedroom was turned on, the temperature kept dropping.
Because it was summer, the program crew only prepared summer quilts for them. Shen Qingqing wrapped herself in the quilt but still felt cold.
At this moment, she began to hear the man's low and pleasant voice, "Today, let's continue to tell the story of Emperor Wu of Han..."
Shen Qingqing couldn't help but complain in her heart. Yanyan was only five years old and yet he was told the story of the greatest emperor in history. What kind of heir was he planning to cultivate?
But they are immersed in the story now, so if she sneaks closer, the children shouldn't be able to notice, right?
Thinking of this, Shen Qingqing began to secretly move her body towards Zhou Jiayan.
At first, Zhou Jiayan was so immersed in the story that he didn't notice Shen Qingqing approaching secretly. But Shen Qingqing's body was a little cold, and soon he found that there was someone behind him.
There was something emitting a cool air. He turned his head quietly and saw that his stepmother, who had just looked down on him, had almost stuck to him without him noticing...
Zhou Jiayan's first reaction was, could it be that her stepmother had fallen asleep? So she was trying to wrap herself around him like an octopus?
But then he saw that Shen Qingqing's cell phone screen was still on, and she was still playing with her phone!
Zhou Jiayan was also getting angry at this time. He still remembered that his stepmother had just disliked him for being a hot-tempered kid, and now she was sticking to him again.
What did she mean by this? Was she treating him like a toy to be summoned and dismissed at will?
Thinking of this, he began to move towards Zhou Yexuan. Zhou Yexuan, who was originally staring at the iPad telling a story, found that his son was getting closer and closer.
What is he doing? Is Yanyan filially making room for Shen Qingqing?
Zhou Yexuan's mind immediately flashed back to Shen Qingqing's unrestrained sleeping posture that night. He turned his head and looked up, and sure enough, he saw Shen Qingqing getting closer and closer.
He wanted to reach out and push Shen Qingqing away, but soon realized something was wrong. It seemed that Shen Qingqing was not asleep and should not come towards them. Then he saw that Shen Qingqing wrapped herself tightly and instantly understood what was going on.
Is Shen Qingqing afraid of the cold?
He looked at the air conditioner in the corner. He heard that women's body temperature is much lower than men's. He and Yanyan didn't feel cold, but Shen Qingqing might not.
There were children around, so the temperature he set was not low, but obviously due to years of disrepair, the temperature control of this air conditioner was very inaccurate, and the perceived temperature was much lower than the set temperature.
But if the call was hung up directly, Shen Qingqing would probably be very unwilling.
Shen Qingqing naturally noticed that Zhou Jiayan was getting further and further away from her, and she knew that she had been discovered again.
She sighed, wondering why she, who was always smart and clever, always failed when facing Zhou Jiayan. Could it be that God really couldn't stand her bullying a child?
Zhou Yexuan hugged the child who was still leaning against him, patted his little butt and said, "Okay Yanyan, don't move. If you move again, Daddy and you will fall off the bed together."
Zhou Jiayan stopped squirming, then he turned around and said with wide eyes, "Mom, don't go too far, Yanyan has already given you a lot of space, don't get any closer."
Shen Qingqing, who was already feeling embarrassed because she was discovered by a child and was sneaking up on her, was suddenly stunned. Was she disliked by Yanyan?
How could Zhou Jiayan be like this? He is no longer the warm-hearted little angel he used to be!
Seeing Shen Qingqing like this, the kid who was originally upset began to feel guilty. It seemed that his behavior really hurt his stepmother...
Thinking of this, the balance in Zhou Jiayan's mind began to swing back and forth, wavering between the thought that he was really sad about his stepmother and that she was lying to him again.
Until Zhou Yexuan spoke again to break the silence, "Qingqing, if you are cold, I will turn off the air conditioner. You don't have to do this."
Shen Qingqing didn't expect Zhou Yexuan to be so sharp-eyed. Indeed, this problem would not exist if the air conditioner was turned off.
But Shen Qingqing was a little hesitant again, "But if we really turn off the air conditioner, it will be very hot again." Shen Qingqing
Qing felt that he couldn't just talk about himself, so he added, "Of course, especially you, you have a hot temper."
At this point, Zhou Yexuan was almost speechless. As he expected, Shen Qingqing was afraid of the heat when the air conditioner was turned off, and afraid of the cold when it was turned on. However, how could such an old-fashioned air conditioner have such a perfect temperature?
After hearing their conversation, Zhou Jiayan, who was standing by, realized that Shen Qingqing was afraid of the cold and was not teasing him like before.
Thinking of this, Zhou Jiayan's guilt reached its peak. He immediately shouted, "Mom, I'm sorry. Yanyan didn't know you were afraid of the cold and disliked mom. Yanyan was wrong. Yanyan will be your little quilt now."
As he spoke, he rolled over and came into Shen Qingqing's arms. He stretched out his limbs and hugged Shen Qingqing tightly, pressing his warm and soft flesh against Shen Qingqing, and said, "Mom, Yanyan will be your little heater. Are you warmer now?"
Shen Qingqing was almost moved to tears when she saw Zhou Jiayan's actions. Woohoo, Yanyan is so sensible!
She stretched out her hands and held Zhou Jiayan in her arms, and then she felt a soft ball of flesh sticking to her, and her heart softened.
I don’t know if it’s because the child really has a hot temper and Zhou Jiayan is a little stove, or if it’s Shen Qingqing’s psychological effect, but after holding Zhou Jiayan for a while, she really didn’t feel cold anymore.
She thought it would be nice to have a little baby like this.
Zhou Yexuan, who was standing by, felt a little jealous when he saw Shen Qingqing's touched expression. Yanyan agreed to be held by her, and she was so touched? And how much heat could Yanyan's small body provide? Compared to him, it was completely incomparable!
But it's better for the two of them to be affectionate than to continue to be at odds.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yexuan reached out and turned off the bedside lamp, and then the family of three fell into a deep sleep.
The family of three was awakened by the alarm clock at seven in the morning, accompanied by the unique hawking sounds of the old neighborhood.
Zhou Yexuan was the first to get out of bed again. After quickly washing up, he started to make breakfast. Time was tight in the morning, and he didn't plan to ask Shen Qingqing to help him. Even with Shen Qingqing around, he would not be able to finish it faster than he could do it alone.
As for Shen Qingqing, she still remembered that she had to send Zhou Jiayan to kindergarten today, so after lying in bed for another five minutes, she sat up and prepared to get up, while little Zhou Jiayan was changing his clothes next to her.
Zhou Jiayan is five years old this year and has acquired the basic ability to dress himself, but sometimes he is not very skilled.
At this time, he was wearing a short-sleeved T-shirt with a tiger head printed on it. However, the collar of the T-shirt was a little small, so his big head was stuck in the clothes, neither moving up nor down, leaving only half of his white and tender belly exposed.
When Shen Qingqing saw him like this, she immediately laughed out loud, and she couldn't help but touch Zhou Jiayan's round belly, which was still the same elastic and soft touch as she remembered.
Although Zhou Jiayan's eyes were blocked by his clothes, his ears could still hear sounds, so he naturally heard Shen Qingqing's laughter.
His angry little voice immediately came out from his clothes, "Mom, you are so mean! How could you watch someone die without helping and even laugh at me!"
It's just that his angry voice was mixed with baby voice because he had just woken up, so it didn't have much threat.
Of course, teasing children is one thing, but now Shen Qingqing has gradually
She gradually began to realize her role as a mother, and then she reached out and began to help Zhou Jiayan put on his clothes.
With the help of an adult, Zhou Jiayan's head finally passed through the collar, but his little face was red. He exhaled and said, "Oh, it's not easy."
Shen Qingqing complained, "It's just that your head is a little too big."
Zhou Jiayan was hit by her stepmother unexpectedly. She complained with her big watery eyes, "It's obviously because the neckline of the clothes is too small. How can you blame Yanyan for having a big head? Yanyan has a physical examination every two months, and her head circumference is obviously normal."
Shen Qingqing didn't expect that a child could have such accurate data and was speechless for a moment.
Well, the clown turned out to be herself.
It wasn't too early now, so Shen Qingqing stopped bothering him. She asked him to change his clothes properly and led him out of the bedroom.
At this time, Zhou Yexuan had already prepared breakfast, which was the usual fried eggs, milk, and sliced bread.
Milk, bread? Shen Qingqing was a little confused. She remembered that she had not bought them. Why did they appear at home?
Zhou Yexuan seemed to have noticed Shen Qingqing's confusion and explained to her, "By the way, I bought this on credit from the auntie at the store downstairs. Remember to go down and pay for it later."
Shen Qingqing was shocked. She could actually buy on credit. How come she didn't know there was such a thing? Why didn't anyone give her credit?
And how much did it cost? This man with eyes in the sky wouldn't buy it from some high-end bakery!
But she has to eat it after all, so now is not the time to worry about so much.
However, after they finished their meal and went downstairs to the convenience store Zhou Yexuan mentioned, Shen Qingqing finally understood why the store owner was willing to give Zhou Yexuan credit.
The shop owner was a married woman in her early thirties, but she was as shy as a young girl when she looked at Zhou Yexuan. After seeing him return the money, she said, "Handsome guy, you don't have to be so anxious. It's okay to be late for two days."
Zhou Yexuan just smiled and said, "Of course I have to do what I promised." Then he quickly said goodbye to the proprietress.
Seeing this scene, after Zhou Yexuan came out, Shen Qingqing reached out and patted Zhou Yexuan on the shoulder, sighed and said, "It's really not easy for you. You actually sold your body to buy food for us."
He believed that he was honest and had not lost money to anyone.
However, after hearing what Shen Qingqing said, he actually felt a little guilty. It seemed that he did take advantage of his good looks to buy things on credit?
Zhou Yexuan's working hours are 9:30 in the morning, and the kindergarten's class time is 8:00 in the morning, so they decided to send the children to an unfamiliar kindergarten together.
The kindergarten is only a dozen minutes away from their residence, and the students are basically residents nearby. Of course, this also means that the children here basically come from ordinary families, and the kindergarten is also an ordinary private kindergarten.
This kindergarten does not have school uniforms, so Shen Qingqing only prepared an Ultraman small school bag and a water cup for Zhou Jiayan.
At this time, Zhou Jiayan was just like the most ordinary kindergarten kid in this city. He came to kindergarten holding his parents' hands and carrying a small schoolbag.
/Although he was a little nervous about going to a new kindergarten, it was so cool that his parents sent him to school together today!
Thinking of this, the usually calm Zhou Jiayan couldn't help but jump up and down. It would be great if he could have both his parents to send him to school in the future.
However, he also knew that his father was too busy at work and his stepmother liked to sleep in, so it was unrealistic for them to send him to school every day. But if he could do that one or two days a week in the future, he would be satisfied.
Daddy said he worked overtime too much, but Mommy seemed to have nothing to do. Zhou Jiayan unconsciously turned his head to look at Shen Qingqing.
When he goes home in the future, can he also find one or two days a week to wake up Shen Qingqing and ask her to take him to kindergarten?
At this time, Shen Qingqing didn't know that she had been targeted by the child. Her plan to sleep in was about to be ruined. Although she noticed that the child looked at her from time to time, she just thought that the child was too dependent on her.
I didn't expect that Yanyan has loved me so much without me realizing it. She is such a good mother who is loved by children!
The program team had already informed the kindergarten, and when Shen Qingqing and the others arrived, they saw a female teacher in her early thirties wearing black-framed glasses waiting at the door.
Seeing them coming, the female teacher showed a kind smile on her face. Her surname is Chen, and she has been working as a kindergarten teacher for nearly ten years. She is an experienced kindergarten teacher.
"Wow, Yanyan is here. Are Yanyan's mom and dad here too?"
Zhou Jiayan listened to the teacher's words and raised his chest with a little pride. Today he was also a happy child whose parents sent him to school together.
Shen Qingqing also smiled and nodded, "Today is the first day. Yanyan comes to a new environment. We all happened to have time, so we all followed him."
Although Teacher Chen is not a die-hard fan of the live broadcast, she has watched the show on TV because of the popularity of "Almighty Mom", so she has some understanding of Shen Qingqing and others' background.
I won't talk about Shen Qingqing, after all, she was a female star who came to participate in the program recording. But I didn't expect Zhou Yexuan to come along, it seems that the family atmosphere of the Zhou family is really good, especially the child's father is a busy man who is very family-oriented, not the kind of boss who leaves everything to the mother.
Being in the education industry, Teacher Chen is very happy to see this phenomenon.
So Teacher Chen couldn't help but look at Zhou Yexuan with a smile on his face, "Yanyan's father is a good man. A good man should spend more time with his wife and children. After all, the education of children cannot be separated from their fathers."
Zhou Yexuan gladly accepted the teacher's praise and smiled, showing his neat white teeth. "Thank you, teacher. I understand this principle, so I always try to make time to accompany Yanyan."
Listening to the conversation between the two, Shen Qingqing couldn't help but curl her lips. Why was Zhou Yexuan praised for accompanying the child? And was she just taking it for granted?
[As a feminist, I would normally criticize this kind of scene, but when I think of last night's scene, I think Zhou Yexuan is indeed a qualified father.]
[Hahahaha, the above person was too polite. Mr. Zhou really tried his best to be a good father.]
[Maybe there is no other way. After all, my mother is unreliable, so Mr. Zhou has to play both the role of father and mother.]
week
Ye Xuan had been keeping an eye on Shen Qingqing out of the corner of his eye. When he saw the expression on Shen Qingqing's face, he knew that she was dissatisfied again.
No matter how he "criticizes" at home, he will still give Shen Qingqing face outside, so he added, "Yanyan's mother is not bad either. She has always been the one who spends more time with Yanyan. She works harder than me."
After hearing this, the female teacher also realized the inappropriateness of what she had just said, and immediately said, "Hahaha, I didn't finish just now. Yanyan's mother is also very good. I also watched the show. Both the mother and the baby are great."
Shen Qingqing felt better when she heard the "good words" Zhou Yexuan said to her. He still had some conscience and did not take all the credit for himself.
But soon, she felt unhappy again, because she had already anticipated how the audience in the live broadcast room would praise Zhou Yexuan as a "good man".
Damn it, she was being used by Zhou Yexuan as a tool to build his character!
Thinking of this, Shen Qingqing secretly glared at Zhou Yexuan again.
Feeling Shen Qingji's unfriendly gaze, Zhou Yexuan was startled. How had he offended her again? A woman's heart is like a needle in the sea.
At this time, the facts were just as Shen Qingqing had expected. The live broadcast room was flooded with praise for Zhou Yexuan. However, it was also a little different from what Shen Qingqing had expected. A small number of people were still praising her.
[Mr. Zhou is such a good man. He doesn't take his wife's efforts for granted.]
[I envy Qingqing so much, she has a good eye for choosing men. Although Mr. Zhou has a child, Yanyan is really cute, and is no worse than his own child.]
[As someone who is afraid of childbirth, it's great to be able to be a mother without any pain and have such a cute baby, okay? And my husband is so supportive. ]
[If nothing else, today is another day when I want to be Shen Qingqing again. My husband and son are both great. ]
[Upstairs, it is clearly our sister Shen who taught us well. Sisters, pay attention, in a family, the diligent ones often do more, so it’s okay to be a little lazy! ]
[What the above person said makes a lot of sense. I think I can just let it go. After all, my mother always scolds me for not being able to get married.]
After exchanging a few more greetings at the kindergarten gate, Shen Qingqing and the others followed the teacher into the middle class where Zhou Jiayan would be attending.
Coincidentally, the class he is in now is also called the Peach Class.
However, compared with the international kindergarten, the current classroom is obviously much more simple, and there are a lot more children, about twenty in total.
The class hadn't started yet, but the classroom was already noisy. A naughty little boy was pulling the little girl's braids, and then everyone heard the little girl cry out.
This scene made Teacher Chen, who brought them in, a little embarrassed. He shouted angrily, "Xu Cheng, why are you bullying girls again? When your dad comes back in a few days, the teacher will tell them."
However, Xu Cheng was not frightened by Teacher Chen's words. He answered loudly, "My dad will only come back during the Chinese New Year. By then, you will have forgotten about it."
[Damn, there's a naughty kid right after I came in. ]
[The production team is also sick. They even found a strange kindergarten for Yanyan during the recording of the program.
go to school.】
[Am I the only one who believes in Yanyan? He is so capable, there must be no problem.]
Teacher Chen felt even more helpless, but it was not Xu Cheng's fault that he was so naughty.
She sighed helplessly and explained, "Xu Cheng's parents divorced a year and a half ago, and his father is a seafaring sailor who is at sea most of the year, so he has been taken care of by his grandparents. The elderly dote on their children, and they pity the child for having no mother since childhood, so they spoil him even more. And Xu Cheng has grown tall, so he is like a little bully. He can only be a little quiet when his father comes back."
Shen Qingqing understood that this was actually a left-behind child, and her previous dissatisfaction with the child turned into sympathy.
Alas, it’s not easy.
Then, she glanced at the little ball next to her. It seemed that Yanyan was also such a "left-behind child" not long ago, and he seemed to be even more miserable. He didn't even have grandparents who loved him. It was not easy for him to grow up to be so obedient now.
However, little Zhou Jiayan did not feel a sense of sympathy with Xu Cheng. When he saw Xu Cheng bullying the little girl, he immediately clenched his fists.
Then he put on his schoolbag and rushed into the classroom, shouting at Xu Cheng, "How can you, a boy, bully a little girl? It's so shameful."
His action instantly surprised many people. After all, Zhou Jiayan looked like a quiet and gentlemanly little boy on weekdays.
【!!!Yanyan actually rushed in to save the little girl. 】
[Yanyan is so handsome and brave. ]
[But I'm so afraid that Yanyan will be bullied. Yanyan, you should pay attention to your own safety while helping others. ]
[Indeed, Yanyan is much thinner than that boy. I am worried.]
Shen Qingqing was startled when she saw the child suddenly run in. Yanyan was so reckless that he would get beaten, right?
She wanted to go in and stop Zhou Jiayan from doing the next move, but Zhou Yexuan stopped her and whispered in her ear, "Don't worry, Yanyan is fine."
Hearing what Zhou Yexuan said, Shen Qingqing also stopped.
Zhou Jiayan is considered tall among his peers, but Xu Cheng is more developed and is actually a head taller than Zhou Jiayan.
Seeing that the boy who was shorter and thinner than him dared to control him, he felt very disdainful and even pulled the girl's pigtails provocatively, shouting, "I pulled it, what can you do? Can you beat me?"
Zhou Jiayan didn't expect the boy in front of him to be so shameless. He showed no sign of repentance and didn't even let go of the little girl's braids. He was immediately angry.
Although the other party was taller and stronger than him, he was not afraid. He reached out and grabbed the boy's wrist that was pulling out the girl's braids, and then said, "Hurry up and let go, or I will be rude."
The boy only felt a pain on his wrist. He didn't expect that the skinny boy in front of him was so strong. However, he still didn't believe that he would lose. He continued to shout, "Can you be so rude? Humph, that's all the strength you have."
Seeing that the other party still refused to let go, Zhou Jiayan increased the strength in his hands. Seeing that the boy still did not let go, he stretched out another
He used one hand and began to pry Xu Cheng's hands apart little by little.
At first Xu Cheng was dismissive of the child who suddenly rushed in, but soon a mask of pain appeared on his face and he was horrified in his heart. Why could this skinny boy be so strong?
Then he saw his fingers being pried open little by little by the boy in front of him, and the little girl's braids were finally pulled out successfully. He opened his mouth wide with disbelief on his face.
He couldn't help but shout out, "Grandma, oh my god, there's a super-powerful kid!"
At this time, the audience in the live broadcast room was also excited.
[Yanyan actually did it, he defeated that little boy! ]
[I didn't realize before that Yanyan is actually quite strong. ]
[He's too boyfriend-like, woooo, to be honest, when I was bullied by other little boys when I was a kid, I also hoped that someone like Yanyan would come down from the sky and save me.]
[Yanyan is really great, brave and capable. ]
