More than twenty days passed, and Xi Haitang still did not receive a clear answer to her job application. Her mood began to become depressed, and she only felt better when she was with her daughter.
There are always so many days when she doesn't have to work that she doesn't know what to do. In addition to taking care of Xiaochen's three meals a day, she still has a lot of free time. She can only do housework and knit.
"Xiaochen, come here, try on this sweater to see if it fits you?" Xi Haitang took the newly knitted sweater to try on her daughter.
Xiaochen knows how to comfort people, "Mommy is awesome, her knitting is beautiful!"
"You have such a sweet little mouth!"
"It's all because of Mommy's dexterity!" Xiaochen looked in the mirror, looking left and right, very satisfied, "Mommy, it fits very well! And I like this color and pattern very much!"
"As long as you like it, take it off and put it on again when it gets cold."
"Okay, I'll put it in the cabinet."
Xiaochen happily took off the sweater, folded it and put it in the closet, but suddenly she saw another sweater in the corner of the closet. Halfway through the knitting, it was blue, not pink like hers.
"Huh? Who is this knitted for?"
Xi Haitang was startled for a moment, and suddenly remembered what happened a long time ago. On the weekend after she broke her appointment with Gu Xijue, she went to see Yunhen at the Gu family mansion. She promised that Yunhen would knit a sweater for him.
Thinking of that poor child, Xi Haitang still felt heartbroken. Although Gu Xijue was very evil, Yunhen was very well-behaved and sensible. He was a good child!
Xi Haitang sighed softly and hugged her daughter over, "Xiaochen, mommy wants to ask you, have you and Gu Yunhen met at school these days?"
"Well... yes, there is, but I don't pay much attention to him."
"oh?!"
"Because his daddy is bad! I decided not to be good friends with him anymore!" Xiaochen was also very depressed when she mentioned this matter. Gu Yunhen seemed to be in a bad mood recently. She hoped it wasn't because she didn't
It's because he suffered a blow to his good looks.
Xi Haitang was a little worried. She knew her daughter's personality very well. Maybe she would do something unfriendly to her classmates!
"Xiaochen, you haven't done anything excessive to others, right?"
"No, no, I just don't talk to him anymore..." Xiaochen said while recalling. Suddenly, his mouth opened wide, "Ah, one time in the cafeteria, I threw the dessert he bought for me on the ground.
Go up!"
"anything else?"
"Also...I told him that I don't care about the dessert he bought. If I want to eat it, mommy will make it for me..." Xiaochen's voice became weaker and weaker. She also knew that she was going too far.
Well, she knew clearly that Gu Yunhen didn't have a mother and she cared about this kind of thing, but she still deliberately provoked him. It was really good and bad!
Xi Haitang's mood was a bit complicated. The child would definitely be sad after hearing what Xiaochen said, but looking at Xiaochen's appearance, he also regretted it. Hey, why do things between adults involve children?
Xiaochen secretly raised his head, glanced at Xi Haitang, and asked timidly, "Mommy, did I do something wrong? I am a bad boy who loves to hold grudges..."
"Xiaochen, don't talk about yourself like that. Mommy knows you didn't mean it, and you regret it now, right?"
"Well, I regret it, I regret it very much... I want to apologize to him, but I feel very embarrassed..." Xiaochen's face was full of tangles, and children have very strong self-esteem!
Seeing her daughter like this, Xi Haitang was both relieved and distressed. She looked at the half-knitted sweater and suddenly had an idea, "Xiaochen, mommy, finish knitting this sweater, and then you take it to Gu.
Yunhen, are you okay?"
"……I go?!"
"Well! You can apologize to him by the way, it will appear very sincere!"
Xiaochen blinked and thought about it, "Okay!"
Xi Haitang smiled knowingly. No matter what, she hoped that the children would have a happy childhood and that they should not be involved in the grudges and grudges of adults.

A few days later, it was lunch break time at school again.
After Xiaochen prepared the meal, he was not in a hurry to eat it. Instead, his little head turned back and forth, looking for Gu Yunhen.
Hey, why didn't you see it? He didn't come to school, right? Oops, then her sweater can't be given away, right?
"Xiaochen, who are you looking for?" Su Yaya, the deputy squad leader, couldn't help but ask when she saw Xiaochen looking around.
Xiaochen shook his head, "I'm not looking for anyone, I just took a look."
Keep your head down and eat.
Su Yaya frowned, Xiaochen looked mysterious, so strange!
"Xiaochen, have you heard that Gu Yunhen, the gifted student in Class A, seems a little weird lately!"
"Er?!" Xiaochen raised his head suddenly, his eyes full of questions, "What's wrong with him?"
"He's even more indifferent than before! I had a meeting with the class leaders of his class yesterday, and they said they couldn't see him smiling even once a week. They also said he didn't seem to come to the cafeteria for lunch these days!"
"Then where will he eat?"
"The small garden next to the library! Alone!"
The corner of Xiaochen's mouth twitched, disgusting, couldn't she be the culprit of Gu Yunhen's behavior?!o(>﹏<)oNo!
◎◎◎
"Gu Yunhen, you are really here!" Xiaochen found Gu Yunhen in the small garden next to the library. He was eating alone in front of the small round table, looking very pitiful.
The indifferent little boy looked up and saw that it was her, his expression slightly cracked, "What are you doing here?"
"Uh..." Xiaochen was very confused. Of course she came to apologize! But he was so cold and cold that it was difficult for her to speak!
Her little hands clenched secretly, and the bag string pinched in the palm of her right hand reminded her, ah, Mommy said, giving sweaters can show sincerity!
"Cough... cough... Gu Yunhen, I give this to you as my apology. I shouldn't have been so rude last time." Xiaochen mustered up the courage to hand the bag in her hand to him.
"I do not want!"
"You didn't even look at it and you just said no?!" Xiaochen was very depressed and quickly opened the bag and showed him the sweater inside, "This is the sweater my mommy knitted for you, specially knitted for you!
"
The little boy's clear eyes were slightly surprised, "What...what does this mean?"
"What do you mean? It's not interesting. I just gave it to you. The weather is going to get cold soon. You need to wear a sweater, otherwise you will catch a cold!"
"This is the sweater my aunt knitted for me by herself?!"
"Yeah! Let's get one for each of us!" Xiaochen tried very hard to explain that the two sweaters have the same status, and she and he are treated the same!
Gu Yunhen, who had never worn a hand-knitted sweater before, suddenly felt sore at the corners of his eyes. He had grown so big and no one had ever knitted a sweater for him. This sweater seemed to smell like mommy!
"Gu Yunhen, my attitude was very bad last time. I'm sorry. Please forgive me, okay? Well, for the sake of the sweater, just stop worrying about it, eh?!"
"Actually...I also have something wrong..."
The two children apologized to each other and reconciled.
After Xiaochen gave away the sweater, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Phew, we finally got this little iceberg!

The Gu family mansion.
"Yunhen, why are you still in the room? The German teacher is already here..." Gu Xijue opened the door and happened to see his son trying on the sweater.
Suddenly, his face darkened, "Where did these clothes come from?!"
