Chu Jin stood at the door, wearing only a thin off-white sweater and black corduroy trousers, with a pair of peach eyes curled up.
I don't know if it's the reason why I just got up, my eyes are misty.
Others didn't have the stiff standing as usual, they were slightly leaning on the door frame with their hands in their pockets, and the whole person looked soft.
"You, get up early..."
Song Qiaoxi put her hands behind her back, and slowly moved towards the family building.
"What are you doing early in the morning? You don't have your hair tied up, don't tell me to come out for a morning run?"
Chu Jin's voice was lazy, a little dumb, his eyelids seemed a little heavy, and his eyes didn't open completely.
"I ate to support myself last night and woke up early for a stroll."
Xiao Nuo Tuan really doesn't lie, her voice is as small as a mosquito, and she secretly glanced at Chu Jin's reaction, and her two short legs continued to move towards the family building.
Chu Jin saw through her "lie", seeing her sneaky and hiding something behind her, it must be something she didn't want him to know, and she didn't say much.
Shaking his head and smiling, he said very cooperatively: "It's too cold in the morning. Next time you come out for a walk, wear more and a hat."
Song Qiaoxi nodded in relief.
Emma, luckily, Chu Jin didn't find it!
Hiding the paper roll awkwardly with his body, he turned and ran into the building.
Since the last time she forgot to bring her home key and was caught, she would confirm whether she had the key before going out. She looked down at her chest, the key was there, and she was relieved.
It was less than six o'clock when I walked into the house.
Huh?
Mom and Dad usually get up early in the morning, but today it is strange that they haven't gotten up at this point yet.
Don't know what they did last night?
"Didn't you go to bed early?"
Song Qiaoxi said to herself, shrugged and took Ding Yi's painting, and went back to her hut to work.
She took a group photo of the "Little Gang of Five", applied a glue stick, and pasted it on the prepared cardboard "certificate", raising her hands and blowing into the glue.
After enjoying it beautifully for a long time, and confirming that it was completely dry, he carefully rolled up the award and went to the bathroom to find a hair rope with a small strawberry to tie it up.
I packed my schoolbags, washed my clothes, and changed my clothes. Only then did I hear the sound of "ding ding dong dong" in the room of mom and dad.
"Song Jianguo, last night..." Mother opened the door with a "crash", she walked out anxiously with her hair tied up, tied the belt of her dressing gown, turned her gaze to Song Qiaoxi and said, "Xixi , Have you washed? Mom will steam a custard bag for you and Chu Jin steamed vegetable bag for breakfast, okay?"
"I'm done washing up, Mom, I like to eat custard packets!"
Xiao Nuotuan agreed, sitting on the sofa and turning on the TV.
When Yu Guang saw her mother rushing into the kitchen, she didn't forget to say to her, "Xixi, I will learn how to braid myself in the future, okay, if my mother and Chu Jin are not around someday, you really go to school with a goofy haircut? "
Mother went into the kitchen to work, Song Qiaoxi put down the remote control, and the morning news began to be broadcast on the TV.
She wants to go to the kitchen to help and find something within her power.
As soon as I stood up, I heard movement at the door, and my mother poked her head out from the kitchen, "It’s all here? Auntie is boiling water. The steamed buns will heat up quickly. Then I will make egg white soup for both of you and put some sesame oil. I also steamed some red sausage."
"Hello, Auntie." Chu Jin said hello politely, and glanced at Song Qiaoxi, "Let me help her tie her hair."
"Sure, thanks to you," Mother Song glanced at Father Song, who was stunned and walked out of the bathroom with a toothbrush in his hand, and waved to him, "Song Jianguo, you also learn how to braid Xixi with Chu Jin. Looking at your father, Chu Jinzhen and I can't do anything without me. If you let you two stay at home by yourself, I think this family will be paralyzed."
"Then I won't leave you all my life!"
Song Qiaoxi didn't change her voice, she still made a sweet voice, arching her mother's waist with her head.
"Stupid girl, you really want to stay at home forever, so you don't want to fall in love or marry when you grow up? Don't you want to travel the world to be your great photographer?"
Mother had water in her hand, did not touch her head as usual, and touched her with her elbow.
Nuo Tuanzi didn’t care, she rubbed her face in her mother’s arms, “I don’t want to marry, I’ll stay with you. Chu Jin won’t marry, so that I can pigtail me every day, and I can take you with me. Wow around the world?"
"Chu Jin will marry a daughter-in-law in the future, not a man, a girl will marry a man, a boy will marry a daughter-in-law." Mom kissed her forehead with a smile, smiled at Chu Jin, and said to her daughter, "So you Hurry up and learn to tie your own braids. If you grow up and marry a wife, you won’t be able to tie your braids."
"Why?"
Song Qiaoxi frowned, released her hand holding her mother's waist, her tone was obviously unhappy.
Why do you still have this statement?
Mother said as she walked to the kitchen, the whole room was filled with the smell of steamed buns in a pot, "Of course, you can only braid his daughter-in-law, and then you have to call all your brother's daughter-in-law to say "sister-in-law", okay. Go ahead and let Chu Jin tie up his hair for help, and eat right away."
Song Qiaoxi pouted, took a small horse from the dining room and moved it to the living room, and sat down in front of the TV consciously.
Chu Jin stood behind her holding the hair rope and comb, bending over to comb her hair.
The TV shows the morning news. Children don't like to watch this, but she didn't adjust the channel either. It's a habit of dad to get up early to play the news.
Father Song had finished washing up and went to the kitchen to help his mother. He came over and turned up the TV sound a little bit. By the way, he squeezed her cheeks, "Listen to mother, Xixi will be nine years old in June, and she will be an eldest child soon. Now, why don't you know how to tie your own braids, do you want to stick to it all, um, little sticky person?"
"dad......"
Twisting her waist and shouting with a small temper, Song Qiaoxi folded her hands on her chest.
When her father was gone, she looked at the anchor uncle in a suit in the news with divergent eyes, worrying.
Don't marry someone. If you marry, you can't live with your parents. The purpose of coming into this world is to protect your parents.
What's more, from the very beginning, I promised the original master sister to take good care of mom and dad, so that mom and dad avoid all the bad things in the original plot and prevent them from being harmed in any way.
Just guard my father and mother, and help them resolve all the catastrophes before I turn 20. In the days after that, the family can be together safely and happily. What a wonderful thing.
But Chu Jin, in the memory of the original book, did not have much overlap with himself.
He seems to belong to this family, and it seems that he does not belong to this family, and is like a non-staff. If Chu Jin grows up, he will really be like his mother said, marrying a daughter-in-law, he will leave this family, just Are you not with them anymore?
Thinking about it another way, it seems that he hasn't lived at home for a few days...
and......
Just now my mother said that when Chu Jin was going to marry a daughter-in-law when he grew up, Chu Jin didn't rebut a word? !
Did he acquiesce in what his mother said?
Suddenly I felt myself, as if being enveloped by a huge "sense of crisis"...
It seemed that in the next second, Chu Jin became a handsome man taller than his father, holding a sister who looked like a "fox" in his hand.
The two stood together affectionately, and the "vix spirit" hung on the grown-up Chu Jin as if it were boneless, and smiled unkindly at her.
And Chu Jin beckoned and smiled at her, smiling like an evildoer, "Come on, Xixi, call her sister-in-law."
After this brain replenishment, Nuo Tuanzi didn't know why, and her heart was very flustered, and her little heart beat so fast in an instant.
The two little fleshy hands were twisted together nervously, and even the little belly flew around like a butterfly.
"Marry a man" and "marry a wife" mean the same thing in Song Qiaoxi's eyes.
It means leaving this home completely and forming a new family with a stranger whom you don't know at all.
Just like my mother left grandma and grandpa's house and married her father, I came to Qizhou from the city where my mother grew up in Taicheng to start a new life.
Dad married his mother and left the house of grandparents and did not live with them.
Even if I often contact me by phone, I actually meet very few times a year, and I can't stay a few days when I go back to see the old people during the holidays.
Also, if Chu Jin becomes a father like his father in the future, he will have a baby?
Would you like to put all your energy on your own little family and little baby like mom and dad?
She still calls another person she doesn't know "sister-in-law"? !
Chu Jin would comb her hair, tie her braids, wipe her face, recite English to her, teach her to play the piano...
When I thought of this, Nuo Tuanzi's heart was filled with strange emotions, like grievances and sadness, but more sad than simple grievances and sadness.
That feeling was like being "abandoned" by the whole world. Mom and Dad said that when she grew up, she would marry and leave home, and Chu Jin would marry a wife and leave home when she grew up.
Isn't that all gone?
After blinking, my eyes started to sore and gradually became wet...
He bit his lips tightly, trying to hold back the tears.
Chu Jin was still combing her hair, and it was too embarrassing to cry at this time.
"Do you want to tie a double ponytail or a ball head?"
Chu Jin's voice was gentle, and she used a comb to split her hair into two strands and hung them on her chest.
Sniffing his nose, whispered: "Anything..."
"It's very cold outside today. I will tie you two low ponytails, leaning against your ears, so that you can wear a hat?"
Chu Jin held a handful of soft long hair with one hand, and untied the rope from his wrist with the other hand.
"Ok......"
He lowered his eyes and nodded, quickly rubbed his eyes with both hands, choked very little, and then covered it with a cough, thinking that he hadn't been noticed.
He lowered his head slightly, and cooperatively asked Chu Jin to split her head and tie her two braids.
But there was no feeling of pulling hair on his head for a long time.
Looking up again, she saw Chu Jin kneeling in front of her, staring at herself with one hand on her knees.
"What's the matter?" Chu Jin looked at Song Qiaoxi with a gentle expression, and gently wiped off a drop of tears rolling down her cheek with his other hand, "Why are you crying, did you hurt you by pulling your hair?"
"..."
It's okay not to ask, but Song Qiaoxi feels even more aggrieved.
At this moment, my mother just said, "Chu Jin wants to marry a wife when he grows up, so I can't tie you up..." Dad said, "Small sticky guys, don't you want to stick to them all the time?", The brain made up for the "Sister-in-law of the Fox" who was trembling with laughter...
One by one, everything that happened this early morning was piled up together.
Chu Jin is going to leave and get along with others. He wants to have his own home, and he won't even care about her anymore. He won't even tie his pigtails...
That unspeakable emotion came to my heart again, stronger than before.
Song Qiaoxi's throat seemed to be blocked by something, the soreness in her eye sockets became more intense, and the heat in her chest floated up uncontrollably, from her cheeks to the tips of her ears.
Chu Jin was stunned for a moment.
He watched Xiao Nuo Tuan's face turn pink, like a red apple, with a puddle of water in his big eyes, and Xiao Bai Fang biting his ruddy lips pitifully.
A drop of bean-sized teardrops rolled down the round fleshy face, and hit the ground with "Bata", and also hit his heart.
Chu Jin took a paper towel from the coffee table to wipe the teardrops from her face.
But this action was like unscrewing Xiao Nuo Tuan's big-eyed faucet. In an instant, the teardrops crackled and fell, and the little nose made a soft whimper.
It seemed that he had suffered some great grievances, and he dared not say anything, that little appearance was pitiful and distressing.
"Uuuuu...Chu Jin, you, can you not leave...but, can you, no, don't marry a wife..."
Song Qiaoxi couldn't control her tears, she couldn't wait to bury her head in her chest, sobbing and saying.
Hearing the inexplicable words was completely confused.
He got up, went to the bathroom to wet Song Qiaoxi's little rabbit towel with warm water, wringed it out, and picked up the baby face and mushroom child cream on the shelf.
Walking back, gently holding her tender chin with one hand, raising the little girl's face, and wiping her with the other.
After wiping, he put a hot towel on Xiao Nuo Tuan’s eyes, “It’s so windy outside, and after crying, the eyes will hurt...”
The crying gradually stopped.
Song Qiaoxi's eyes were covered by the hot towel, very comfortable.
Listening to Chu Jin's soft voice comforting her, the grievances in her heart also eased somewhat.
But the matter just now has not been resolved, Xiao Nuo Tuan is ultimately unwilling, and the questions in his head have not received a clear answer, and the straight ball's stubborn temper has come up again.
He squeezed off the hot towel from his face, sucked his nose, looked up at Chu Jin's eyes, "You haven't answered me yet, can you not leave when you grow up, can you not have a wife..."
Chu Jin still held the children's face cream covered with red mushrooms in his hands.
He rubbed the skin under his eyes with one hand, and looked at Song Qiaoxi with a slight smile.
The little girl who had just cried, her eyes were red like a bunny, her mouth was slightly swollen, she was a bright red color, she said this in a crying tone, and the sound of milk was very sticky. It's somewhat vain.
especially......
When it comes to "you can not have a wife", the word "daughter-in-law" sounds so small as a mosquito.
He really wanted to know what Song Qiaoxi was pretending in her head, what was she thinking about every day?
Where do I go? Apart from being with Uncle Song, Aunt Qiao, and Song Qiaoxi, is there any other place I can go?
What's more ridiculous is "marry a wife", how old a kid knows what "marry a wife"?
Aunt Qiao and Uncle Song were making fun of her, Song Qiaoxi took it seriously...
"You answer me..."
Dragging the milky tail sound, Song Qiaoxi grabbed the hem of Chu Jin's sweater and pulled it left and right, looking reluctant.
Chu Jin smiled helplessly, and asked her in a low voice, "Where shall I go?"
"How do I know...what if, what if you regret it and don't want to travel the world with me when you grow up?"
Squeezing the corners of his clothes, Song Qiaoxi nervously rubbed the edges of the soft sweater in her hands with her small hands, her head hanging down without daring to look up.
"I'm not going anywhere, okay." Chu Jin was obviously coaxing, lowered his posture, bent down slightly, and rubbed her furry hair affectionately, "My child, you don't want to think about it, except for me. Is there any other place to go to your home?"
"Oh, no, I didn't say you go now, I mean when you grow up..." Song Qiaoxi said very rigorously, shaking a little curly hair, "and I'm not a kid."
If in old memory, I would still be a few years older than you.
Humph, you are the kid!
The smile on Chu Jin's mouth deepened, and he nodded solemnly, "Well, I won't leave when I grow up. If you don't drive me away, I won't leave."
"Okay, I remember..." Song Qiaoxi also nodded, thought for a moment, raised her face again, and asked in a low voice, "Then you will, will you marry a wife? Are you married? Don’t you stop braiding me again..."
"..."
This question is really difficult for Chu Jin to answer.
That was a long, long time later, and he didn't know what would happen in the future...
Chu Jin could grow up with Nuo Tuanzi slowly and try his best to guard her. As long as she didn't say to leave, she wouldn't leave.
But if one day, when Song Qiaoxi grows up, she doesn't want to be by her side anymore?
People will change, just like when mom and dad are alive, the younger uncles, uncles, and aunts are the same. When mom and dad are gone, they are like a different person.
He can be used as a constant factor, but how could Chu Jin put Song Qiaoxi on a "yoke" at such a young age, limiting the future to a circle?
Song Qiaoxi shouldn't have so many worries, she should be like an unfettered little eagle, soaring to any corner of the world at will.
Chu Jin stood up, put the child face mushroom cream in Song Qiaoxi's hand, walked around behind her and began to tie her braids meticulously.
"Grease some oil by yourself, and then go out and blow the wind, and your face will hurt."
He took off the rubber band of his wrist and held it in his mouth. He was very obedient with his long curly hair in his hands.
"..."
Nuo Tuanzi unscrewed the mushroom lid, dug a little bit of oil with his fingers, tapped a few times on his face with his index finger, and then rubbed his two small meaty claws.
The braids were quickly tied up, and two well-behaved double ponytails hung down on his chest along the back of his ears.
Chu Jin walked around her, took a look at whether it was symmetrical, and sighed slightly after confirming that there was no problem, "Song Qiaoxi, don't worry, I will keep you braided if you want, okay?"
"Even if you grow up, if you need it, I will help you tie it."
He added another sentence.
Song Qiaoxi closed the lid of the cream and lowered her eyes, "Okay."
For this answer, I can't tell whether it is satisfied or dissatisfied. It seems that something is missing. Did Chu Jin answer her one question less?
"Gurulu..."
The unbelievable belly always screams at critical moments.
Nuo Tuanzi instantly lost the ability to think. Now she has only one goal in her mind...
cooked rice.
If you have difficulties, then do a bowl of rice, if you have troubles, do a bowl of rice.
There are no worries in the world, it can't be solved by dry meals. If one meal can't be solved, just do two meals!
The chain reaction that appeared after being hungry caused Song Qiaoxi's slogan to play in her ears like a loud speaker.
"It's dinner. I have braided for so long today, Xixi, are you trying to weave your princess hair again?"
Qiao Qin poked her head out of the kitchen and told the two children to eat.
Found the atmosphere of the two of them a bit dull?
To be precise, it is because my daughters did not "chitter" and talk nonstop like a little babble.
"I didn't..." Song Qiaoxi stood up from the bench, smelt the small bench and ran all the way to the restaurant, pouting, "Mom framed me."
Seeing that the girl's mouth can hang soy sauce bottles, her mood is obviously not very beautiful, I guess it is a little awkward between the children.
For children’s issues, let the children take care of themselves. Qiao Qin has always insisted on this point of view, but smiled at both children and asked them to come and eat quickly.
When the girl came over, wiped her hands with her apron, squeezed her tender little face, "Oh, what's so serious? You can't use the term'framing' indiscriminately. It's my mother who blamed Xixi, and mother gave Xixi to Xixi. Is it good to apologize?"
Song Qiaoxi actually regretted as soon as she finished speaking, she shouldn't have said that to her mother.
Putting his head in my mother's arms, she said coquettishly: "Mom shouldn't apologize to me. Mom made me breakfast. Thank you mom. It's because I shouldn't say that to mom, mom I was wrong..."
"What's wrong, I'm so delicate early in the morning, I'm going to eat soon, and I'll be late for a while, Miaomiao and the others are waiting for you at the gate at 7:30."
Mother squeezed Song Qiaoxi's shoulders and pressed it to the dining table.
After the meal, Song Qiaoxi gave the prepared certificate to Chu Jin.
"Da Da! Look, this is the certificate of honor given to you by the "Little Five" this year. The cartoon villain was drawn by Ding Yi. Is it super awesome?"
Can't wait to show this handmade "certificate", Nuo Tuanzi carefully unfolded and handed it to Chu Jin's hands.
"Hey, you are the little guy in the Taekwondo suit, and I am the one holding the candied haws, this is Miaomiao, haha, look at Wang Junyang's silly look, alas, Ding Yi really painted himself the most handsome... ..."
With this "certificate" in his hand, Chu Jin suddenly understood that Song Qiaoxi had gone downstairs at five o'clock in the morning to find Ding Yi.
It turned out that when she threw away the certificate issued by the leader of the newspaper yesterday, she silently remembered it...
Around the "Certificate", there are patterns and lines drawn by hand, and several small animal shapes are cut out of cardboard of different colors and pasted at the bottom of the "Certificate".
Song Qiaoxi's hands are a bit clumsy, and she is slow to make crafts.
This "certificate", she should stay up all night and do it all night...
Xiao Nuo Tuan tilted his head and looked at him with big eyes blinking, "You can put the'Certificate' on the wall, don't you think it looks good?"
"Well, it looks good." Chu Jin nodded affirmatively, "Listen to you, I'll post it after school in the afternoon."
The two children went downstairs together, and Chu Jin put the "certificate" back into the boiler room.
Take the schoolbag and walk shoulder to shoulder with Song Qiaoxi to the gate of the compound.
After the meal was full, Xiao Nuo Tuan regained his normal thinking ability, and his brain became clearer and clearer.
It took only seven or eight minutes to walk from the boiler room to the entrance of the compound. Chu Jin asked her to walk outside in winter, talk less, or drink cool breeze and stomach pain.
Song Qiaoxi was walking quietly with her schoolbag on her back. At this moment, her little head began to think about "marrying a wife" again.
After thinking about it, even though I couldn't get past the hurdle in my heart, I still wanted a clear answer.
After halfway down the road, Song Qiaoxi stopped suddenly.
Her heart was too nervous, her little heart was beating up and down, she felt a little selfish, but even if she was selfish, she had to say this, or else she held it in place and exploded.
Chu Jin took two steps forward and found that no one was following.
Turning her head questioningly, she saw Song Qiaoxi lowered her head, clenched her small fist and pressed her lower lip tightly, as if she had plucked up a lot of courage.
She suddenly looked up, her big bright eyes were watery and her expression was a bit tangled, but her small fleshy face looked so cute and cute.
Licking the corner of her mouth, Song Qiaoxi asked with difficulty: "Chu Jin, you...when you grow up, can you not marry a wife?"
