"Mother."
"Hey, Mommy is here, son, what's wrong?" The words on the tip of her tongue were forgotten as soon as she was interrupted by her son. She lowered her head to look at her three sons in her arms. The one who spoke was her second son Liming. The other two little guys relaxed their arms slightly and looked at her together.
Li Ming said, "Mom."
"Mom is here." Zhong Yuxiu touched their little heads one by one, her lips curled slightly, and she smiled, "Okay, don't cry! Mom is wrong this time. From now on, Mom will never leave you for such a long time again; okay? Even if Mom is working or busy, you can come to see Mom when you miss her, okay?"
"Um."
The three little guys seemed to understand and nodded in unison, looking chubby and really adorable.
"Mom, I miss you."
Li Ji pressed his face against hers, full of attachment.
"Mom also misses our Li Ji, Li Ming and Li Zhen. Look, if mom misses you, she will come back soon, right?" She coaxed them one sentence at a time.
Li Zhen nodded blankly and tightened his arms again, "Mom, think about it, hug me."
"Okay, okay, mommy will hold you, all of you." Holding the three cubs in her arms, Yuxiu felt both distressed and moved; the bond of mother and child blood was so wonderful. "Mommy's dear babies, don't cry anymore. If you keep crying, you won't be a beautiful baby anymore."
"Piao Piao?"
"Yes, they are beautiful." Yuxiu said to them word by word, "My babies are all beautiful and good babies, so babies should not cry easily. If they cry, they will not be good and will become ugly. Then my mother will not love them anymore."
"Chouchou?" Li Ji subconsciously looked at Yan Rushan.
Yan Rushan: ...Why are you looking at him? Is he ugly?
"Yes, ugly, just like your father."
Yan Rushan: ...A critical hit from my wife!
"Ugly!" Li Zhen wrinkled his nose slightly.
"You are ugly. Look at you guys, you are so fat from eating so much. If you grow a little bigger, you can be slaughtered." He has no tenderness towards his son.
The three little guys looked at him in confusion.
Zhong Yuxiu gave him a scolding look and kissed her sons on the cheek. "Go get the children some food. Don't just stand there. Grandpa, please go sit in the main hall for a while. I'll coax them and then bring them out."
"Okay." Old Master Yan glanced at his great-grandchildren, turned and left.
Yan Rushan stood still. When Zhong Yuxiu looked over, he leaned over and placed a kiss on her forehead. "You only have your son in your heart, not me. You didn't even bother to comfort me after you came back. Instead, they are more important. Look at you kissing, hugging, and coaxing them."
After saying this, the man had already left the house.
Zhong Yuxiu came back to her senses, touched her forehead, shook her head and chuckled; when she looked at her sons again, they hugged her and kissed her. With a warm heart, she kissed her sons' little faces in return.
Liji, Liming, and Lizhen hugged their mother tightly, grinning happily. Liming pointed at the door while laughing, "Ugly, ugly."
"You are really clever little boys." He remembered it after hearing it once, but he did not want his sons to be disrespectful to their father. "Book of Rites, rituals are clear, rituals are true."
"mom."
"Mother."
"Mom."
The little family was clueless and innocent, but confusion was all over their three little faces.
"Dad has to earn money to take care of you and Mom, and it's very hard. Please don't call Dad ugly in the future, okay?"
"Ugly." Li Zhen frowned, as if to say, he is ugly anyway, why can't he say it.
Liji and Liming didn't say anything, but looked at their brother, "You are ugly."
"No, ugly." Li Zhen shook his head seriously. He was very confident because his mother said he was a good baby and a beautiful baby.
"In short, from now on you can't say that dad is ugly, and you can't say bad things about dad. Can you do it? If you can, you are still mom's good baby. If you can't, then you are a bad baby, and mom doesn't like bad babies." She looked at the three little kids seriously and talked to them solemnly.
Li Ji was the first to react and hurriedly shook his head, "No, say it, be good."
"Yes, be good." He gave his eldest son a kiss on the face as a reward.
"Be good." Li Ming only said these two words, "Mom, be good."
I clearly wanted to say, "Mom, I'm a good boy," but in the end, what I said became "Mom, be a good boy."
Zhong Yuxiu's heart softened, and she understood what he meant. "Okay, our good kids are all good, so you have to be obedient, okay?"
"Yes." Li Ji nodded seriously, indicating that he would obey.
"Okay, good and obedient babies, Mommy loves you. Come, Mommy will carry you out to eat delicious food. However, Mommy is only one person, so I can only carry one at a time, and you can't cry."
The three little guys nodded in unison.
Zhong Yuxiu held Lizhen first. This little one had a much more aggressive temper than her two older brothers, so she asked someone to watch him. As soon as she reached the door, she heard the other two crying. She turned around and saw that they were crying again. Where was the agreement?
"Don't cry, mom will be back soon." Without caring about anything else, she first carried Li Zhen to Grandpa Yan, "Grandpa, you hold Li Zhen for a while, I'll carry Li Ji and Li Ming out."
Yan Guofeng nodded and said, "Go ahead. They probably thought you were gone again, so they started crying."
"Okay, I understand."
Zhong Yuxiu returned to the room and stood in front of them. The two little ones stopped crying immediately. They both reached out for a hug, with pouting mouths and tear marks on their faces. They looked really pitiful.
"Didn't I tell you not to cry easily before I left? How can a man cry so easily?"
"hug."
OK, just one word, so soft and sweet, it softened her heart.
She picked up one of them in each hand, and the little ones clung to her neck tightly; she felt uncomfortable and suffocated, but the dependent and fearful aura from her sons affected her, and she couldn't bring herself to pull them down.
After walking out of the room and sitting on the sofa, Li Ji and Li Ming were still unwilling to let go; seeing this, Li Zhen, who was in the old man's arms, rushed towards her with a cry of "ah ah ah".
Yan Guofeng said, "Yuxiu, Xiao San'er also wants to go over. This won't work. How can you hold three children by yourself?"
Even if the granddaughter-in-law was capable, could she hold all three children at once? Even though they were sitting on the sofa, if the three children moved, no one would be safe.
"Give it to me first. If he flutters a few more times, he'll start crying again." Zhong Yuxiu knew the temperaments of her three sons. Li Zhen was the most impatient. Seeing him pouting and tearing up again.
Seeing that he had no choice but to put the children in her arms, Yan Guofeng was worried and didn't know how to share the burden with her as he saw her struggling to hold her three fat great-grandchildren. He didn't know how to share the burden, but his eldest grandson knew.
"Dashan, how long have you been serving food? Come out quickly."
"Here I come."
Yan Rushan stepped out, holding a tray with several bowls of food on it. There was minced meat, egg custard, and white fungus soup. The minced meat was mixed with some chopped green vegetable leaves, and the egg custard was mixed with a little soy sauce.
