"Why are you crying?" Jiang Zhining asked in confusion. Her slightly cool fingers fell on his eyes and gently wiped away the tears.
Song Ye shook his head in panic: "I met Xiao Linzi's mother before. She was gently helping him with his homework."
He thought that he would never have the chance to have this experience in his lifetime.
Hearing this, Jiang Zhining's heart skipped a beat. Looking at that cautious look, Jiang Zhining's defenses broke.
"You have everything other kids have," Jiang Zhining said with a smile. "Your mother is a college student."
Hearing this, Song Ye looked at him with admiration.
After all, their teacher only graduated from high school.
Jiang Zhining felt a little embarrassed when being stared at.
Because although the original owner was admitted to university, she was love-brained. After studying for a year, in order to marry Sheng Hao, she was worried that he would be seduced by other women, so she dropped out of school and pestered him every day.
"Study hard." Jiang Zhining patted his shoulder, "Come to me if you don't understand."
Song Ye nodded heavily, and suddenly noticed Song Chen's eyes. He lowered his head obediently and continued writing.
As Song Yuzhou listened to her conversation with Song Ye, he felt like he had found a treasure and was quite proud: such a beautiful, well-behaved and smart girl is his.
Song Chen couldn't help but exert force on the hand holding the pen, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Jiang Zhining became even more alert.
After the children finished their homework, Jiang Zhining and Song Yuzhou returned to the room.
Sitting beside the bed, Jiang Zhining sighed softly: "It's so boring. I miss the days when I had a mobile phone."
There were no mobile phones in the 1980s. Even though mobile phones were invented a few years later, they did not have the functions of smartphones.
Song Yuzhou walked into the room and saw her sighing. He walked over and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I finally understand why there were so many children in ancient times." Jiang Zhining raised her eyes.
"Why?"
"Every night, what else can you do besides sleeping and doing that kind of thing?"
"..." Song Yuzhou was unable to refute, "Then let's go to sleep?"
Jiang Zhining's cheeks flushed, and just as she was about to speak, she heard a clicking sound.
The two of them looked towards the door at the same time, and saw Xixi running into the room in pajamas, holding a small pillow.
"Mother."
Jiang Zhining squatted down and caught the little girl who was flying towards her.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Zhining asked gently.
Xixi was held by Jiang Zhining, her soft little body resting softly on her shoulder: "Xixi wants to sleep with mommy."
Not long after Xixi was born, Song Yuzhou's eldest brother had an accident. After Song Yuzhou's sister-in-law took the pension, she abandoned the child and ran away with someone.
Therefore, there is a blank in Xixi's memory about her mother.
As far as she can remember, whenever she saw other children with mothers, she was curious and envious.
When Jiang Zhining spoke to her gently, helped her bathe, and fed her, she went from being afraid to liking her gentle and beautiful mother.
Jiang Zhining was flattered: "Really? Okay, let's sleep together tonight."
As she spoke, Jiang Zhining carried Xixi to the bed.
"Yeah, yeah." Xixi cheered happily while hugging the pillow.
Jiang Zhining and Song Yuzhou looked at each other, and then walked towards the bed at the same time.
Xixi was lying in the middle, joy dancing in her eyes.
Jiang Zhining was lying in the innermost part. As soon as she turned sideways, she saw the little girl hugging her enthusiastically.
"Mommy is so sweet and soft, Xixi likes it." Xixi said in a baby voice.
Seeing the cute and coquettish Xixi, Jiang Zhining's heart was warmed, and she stroked her head gently: "Do you want to hear a story?"
Xixi held her tightly with her short, fat hands and nodded like a garlic: "Yes."
Jiang Zhining thought for a moment, and then her sweet voice echoed in the room: "A long time ago, there was a beautiful princess named Snow White..."
Outside the house, Song Chen and Song Ye listened to the gentle story, feeling mixed emotions.
"Brother, I wish I were as small as my sister." Song Ye said enviously.
Growing up, no one told them stories.
Song Chen was silent for a long time. After making sure Xixi was fine, he said, "Let's go."
Seeing him leave, Song Ye hurriedly chased after him: "Brother, I don't think she is a bad person."
Hearing his words, Song Chen clenched his fists: "Our own mother would harm us. She has nothing to do with us, why would she be nice to us? Xiaoye, have you forgotten everything we went through before?"
Hearing this, Song Ye seemed to remember something, and his thin body couldn't help but tremble. It was the fear hidden in his heart.
"Don't be afraid, Xiaoye. Brother will definitely protect you and Xixi." Song Chen hugged Song Ye with bloodshot eyes.
Song Ye nodded gently and held Song Chen's hand tightly.
Inside the house, Xixi slowly fell asleep with Jiang Zhining's gentle voice, her chubby little hands still tightly grasping her clothes.
Jiang Zhining's heart was touched.
"Do you like children very much?" Song Yuzhou asked suddenly.
"I can't say I like him." Jiang Zhining looked at the childish face, "Maybe he's been caught in the rain himself, so he wants to hold an umbrella for others."
Song Yuzhou was puzzled, but Jiang Zhining had no intention of explaining. She just nodded softly, "Turn off the lights. Sleeping with the lights on will affect hormone secretion and will prevent you from growing taller."
Hormones? Although Song Yuzhou didn't understand, he still obediently turned off the lights.
The room was dark, with only moonlight shining in.
"Comrade Yuzhou, I'm going to bed too. Good night." Jiang Zhining's voice was filled with smile.
"Yeah." Song Yuzhou responded simply, restrained and reserved.
Jiang Zhining gently held Xixi's hand and moved her face closer to her, just like a mother and daughter sleeping together.
