Chapter 49 49 Once Berry recovered from her illness, she would hold her little...
As soon as Meiguo recovered from her illness, she would come to Feng Ci's half of the bed at night, carrying her own little quilt to sleep on.
Feng Ci hid the Xinhua Dictionary in advance to ensure that nothing resembling mutton skewers could be seen in the room.
"Brother, I'm here." Meiguo shouted at the bedroom door. Regardless of whether Feng Ci responded or not, she walked in and climbed onto the bed with an arrogant pace that was inconsistent with her age.
Feng Ci moved aside to make some room for her.
The child raised his chin and looked at him: "You should say welcome."
Feng Ci lazily lifted his eyelids and hummed softly from his throat, "Do you want me to set off some firecrackers to welcome you?"
"No, it will scare my baby." After saying that, Meiguo took out the rabbit wrapped in the quilt and carefully placed it on the bed.
Feng Ci's eyebrows twitched violently, and he sat up with a dark face: "Who told you to bring Feng Rabbit up here? Take him away now!"
Feng Rabbit's long pink ears twitched, and he jumped into Meiguo's arms with a strong desire to survive.
Meiguo stretched out her little neck and said softly, "Brother, your trumpet is too loud. It scared Feng Rabbit."
"Don't delay, take him down quickly."
"Brother, don't you think it's pitiful for a rabbit?"
Could anyone be more pitiful than him? Not only did he give the children a separate bed, but even a small, big-nosed rabbit wanted to take over his territory.
Feng Ci was hard-hearted and refused to give in, so Meiguo could only let the rabbit go in disappointment.
Feng Rabbit is still young and has weak jumping ability, so he can't jump onto the bed for the time being.
Meiguo lay down dejectedly, curled up into a small ball under the quilt, and turned her Crayon Shin-chan-like face away, refusing to face Feng Ci.
After calming down, Feng Ci remembered what the experts said: children should not be allowed to go to sleep with negative emotions, as this will easily cause nightmares.
He thought for a moment, reached out and stroked Berry's soft hair, and asked in a low voice:
"Guoguo, when you were sick, you didn't come to sleep with me. Were you afraid of infecting me with the disease?"
Meiguo rested one of her chubby legs on Feng Ci's belly and turned her head in surprise: "How did you know?"
"Of course I know." Feng Ci smiled faintly, as if everything was under control. "Because I'm your brother."
Since her brother knew everything, Meiguo didn't hide it anymore. She turned over and looked at him with her round eyes:
"Brother, you know, my feet are alive."
"Hmm?" Feng Ci asked, "What do you want to say?"
"Brother, if you are sick, Mom and Dad will have to wash my feet. I don't want to tire Mom and Dad, and my feet love you so much, they only like to be washed by you."
Seal: "..."
Feng Ci is a mysophobia person. Every time Meiguo comes to his room to sleep, he will carry her to the bathroom to rub her feet. Over time, Meiguo has developed the habit of rubbing her feet.
Feng Chen and Qiao Tong wanted to wash her, but she was unwilling, so she designated technician number one, Feng Ci.
He felt that his sincerity was misplaced. He gritted his teeth and snorted coldly, "From now on, you rub your feet yourself. If I rub your feet again, I'll be a dog."
"Go to bed." He turned off the light, pulled up the quilt and ignored the confused child.
After lying in the dark room for five minutes, he heard rustling sounds nearby. Without even opening his eyes, Feng Ci uttered a cold cry:
Berry, what are you doing?"
"Oh, I'm going to the bathroom."
Feng Ci didn't say anything. After the child climbed onto the bed and covered himself with the quilt again, he spoke softly:
"Berry, if you take Feng Rabbit to bed again, I'm going to spank you."
Wow, there is such a good thing. Meiguo immediately stuck out her butt and couldn't wait: "Then quickly spank my butt, and then I can hug Feng Rabbit to sleep."
Feng Ci's head ached: "...You wish! Either it goes down, or both of you go down together."
"Oh, I can't help it. Your uncle is too stingy. Go back to sleep, Rabbit." Meiguo took out the doomed Rabbit from her pajamas and waved her handkerchief goodbye. "Go, go, bye."
The next morning, Feng Tuzi made a big mistake. He peed a big puddle on the carpet in Feng Ci's bedroom, which made Feng Ci unable to open his eyes.
He complained to Berry: "Look at what your baby has done."
Meiguo twirled her hands awkwardly, and with a cheeky face, she defended her rabbit: "It's drawing a map for you."
"I'm rare?"
Feng Ci didn't buy it. He stared at the dumbfounded rabbit and said mercilessly, "I can't have this carpet anymore. You have to compensate me."
Meiguo held Feng Ci's fingers and responded softly and obediently, "Okay, okay, I'll stay with you, brother. I'll stay with you all day today."
“…”
"Don't think I don't know you're secretly rewarding yourself."

Zhang Mai's school starts early, and he has to report the day after tomorrow. Feng Ci has been to the southern city where the school is located before, so before leaving, he came to talk to Feng Ci and ask about the local customs and practices there.
The two were talking in the room when Meiguo came in with a fruit platter and told Zhang Mai to feel free to eat.
Zhang Mai pretended to be sad and said, "Little Guozi, brother is leaving the day after tomorrow. From now on, I can only come to see you during the winter and summer holidays. Will you forget me?"
Meiguo looked at him intently and suddenly blurted out, "Brother Xiao Zhang, I may forget the you of the past, but I will definitely remember the you of today."
"Why is that?"
"Because you are so special today."
Zhang Mai perked up: "You look really handsome today, don't you?"
In order to prepare for the upcoming college life, he spent twenty yuan to get a haircut today, just to highlight his sunny and handsome appearance. Originally, he thought twenty yuan was too expensive, but now seeing Xiao Guozi's reaction, he felt that the twenty yuan was really worth it.
Berry looked him up and down, her eyes full of sincerity: "You look like a living zebra today."
"..." Zhang Mai's eye twitched, he looked down at his newly bought striped hoodie, and silently opened Taobao to apply for a return and refund.
Today is the weekend and Feng Chen doesn't have to work overtime, so he happens to be at home. This is the first time he meets Zhang Mai, so he invites Zhang Mai to stay for dinner. They are all adults, so of course they will have a drink.
Feng Chen took out a bottle of Lafite from the wine cabinet, and the three men drank it slowly, one glass at a time.
Berry forced herself to join in with her small cup, "I'll have a toast too."
Feng Chen raised his wine glass and clinked it with Berry's small cup, "Cheers."
"Dad, my yogurt is delicious. Let me give you a sip."
Feng Chen was flattered. He brought back a clean wine glass and said in a pinched voice, "Thank you, baby. Can you pour some for Daddy?"
Berry agreed readily: "No problem."
The child generously shared half of the yogurt from his quilt with Feng Chen, and looked at Feng Chen expectantly as he finished drinking it. "Dad, is it delicious?"
"It's delicious." Feng Chen smiled, "The yogurt you poured is really sweet, baby."
"Okay, it's your turn then." Meiguo pushed the half-empty yogurt cup toward him. "I want to drink yours, fill it up for me."
Feng Chen was dumbfounded. Was he being tricked by his own daughter?
Feng Ci lowered his eyebrows and laughed, "What's the saying, 'It's not good to be nice when there's nothing to do'?"
Meiguo looked at Feng Chen eagerly, like a beggar crying for food: "Hurry up, hurry up."
Feng Chen touched the child's round head helplessly: "You can't drink."
"Just enjoy your yogurt." Feng Ci complained loudly, "What are you scheming against, old man? Don't you understand how to respect the elderly and love the young?"
Feng Chen glared angrily: "Who is this old man?"
Feng Ci buried his head in his food.
The aroma of red wine is mellow, not as strong as white wine and beer. Berry thinks that the smell is very similar to a kind of fruit in the forest.
After failing to cheat for the wine, Meiguo puffed up her face and said seriously, "If you don't give me a drink, I can make it myself. I make it very delicious."
Everyone present thought the child was just talking nonsense and no one took it seriously.
After dinner, Berry's eyelids began to droop, and she curled up on the sofa with her belly sticking out, feeling sleepy.
Qiao Tong walked over and picked her up: "Guoguo, mommy will take you to bed."
Meiguo pried open her eyes, slid to the bottom of the sand in a daze, and replied, "Mom, I'm going to go."
Qiao Tong embraced Meiguo and said softly, "Guoguo, we won't sleep here at noon today. Let's go to other rooms for lunch."
"Is it because Dad drinks?"
"Yeah." Qiao Tong smiled, "Guoguo is really smart."
Feng Chen's face easily turns red when he drinks, and he gets red from head to neck, and he also smells strongly of alcohol. Qiao Tong is afraid that it will be bad for her daughter, so she decides that the mother and daughter should sleep in different rooms during lunch break.
"Mom, I know a lot." Meiguo couldn't help but show off when she was praised. "I even know how much Dad drinks."
"So how much did Dad drink?"
"Two!"
Two...bubbles.
Qiao Tong couldn't stop laughing: "Baby, you are such a happy person."
He can even recite such abstract units of measurement fluently.
Meiguo hugged her and rubbed her soft face against hers: "You are also a happy mother."

On the first day of school at the Agricultural University, Meiguo came along to send Feng Ci off to school. The school covers a total area of more than 30,000 acres. It took them half an hour to walk from signing in at the school gate to carrying their luggage to the dormitory.
The dormitory is for six people. Although it has a bit of an old-fashioned feel, it is warm and comfortable overall. Each person is equipped with a separate desk and wardrobe.
The family arrived late, and Feng Ci was the second to last. The only beds left were those near the door and the innermost beds. Feng Ci didn't hesitate much and chose the bed near the door.
The innermost bed is closest to the balcony door, and the air conditioner is blowing directly towards it in the summer. Only those who sleep on it know what's going on.
Meiguo looked at the palm-sized dormitory and remembered the attic where she and her grandmother used to live. She wondered if it would be uncomfortable for a friend as big as her brother to live in such a small place.
Qiao Tong took Meiguo for a quick tour and got to know the environment. It was indeed not as comfortable as living at home, but Feng Ci was close to home, so this little problem was not a big deal.
Qiao Tong was ready to take Meiguo home, but Meiguo looked back every few steps like an old mother worried about her child.
"Brother, can you do it alone? Will you be scared if you are alone?"
"I'm fine."
"Brother, how about I stay with you?"
Meiguo and Feng Ci had never been apart for a day, so she felt uneasy when Feng Ci suddenly left home.
She couldn't bear to leave her brother.
She gave the Roland grass to Feng Ci: "Brother, I'll keep this grass with you from now on."
The grown-up Roland Grass child was actually willing to give it to him.
"I'm very rich now." Meiguo tugged at Fengci's clothes and stood on tiptoe, whispering, "When I save up some more money, I'll secretly buy you back from here."
"…Is it possible that I came here voluntarily?"
His roommate was there too. To hide his embarrassment, Feng Ci pretended to be cold and stern: "I can go home every day, so don't look so sad."
Berry pointed at the luggage and said, "But brother, you brought all the game consoles with you."
Feng Ci let himself go throughout the summer vacation, playing games whenever he had free time. Every time Meiguo tried to squeeze the game out, she failed.
Meiguo noticed the roommate who was very close to Feng Ci. The roommate was fat and strong, and looked like he could knock ten Feng Ci away with one punch.
"Big brother, my brother has a bad temper, but please don't bully him, okay?" Meiguo turned on the phone watch on her wrist. "You can call me and I'll bully him."
My roommate, who was a little reserved at first, suddenly smiled and said, "Don't worry, big brother, I'm very gentle."
"Then brother, I'm leaving."
"Bye-Bye."
"You're going to see me later."
"Okay, see you later."
The child walked away sniffing, and Feng Ci suddenly felt empty inside. He could only walk two blocks to get home, but why did he feel like a newlywed bride leaving home?
Feng Ci ignored the melancholy in his heart, packed his luggage silently, and placed the Rolandra scabra on the table to use as a bonsai.
