Do you two still want to clear up the relationship when you have children?
"Xiaobai, can you take me home for dinner? I also want to eat spring bamboo shoots and scrambled eggs."
Yu Jingxi's fleshy and moist little hands pressed Bai Xiao's palm, and her heart instantly melted, "Okay, is there anything else you want to eat?"
"Can you please add a little more coconut juice? I think it tastes pretty good."
Bai Xiao nodded without saying anything. At this moment, even if Yu Jingxi wanted the stars in the sky, she would probably foolishly pick them for him.
Yu Shaoting glanced at her spineless look and turned to watch TV.
But Yu Jingxi ran to his side, "Dad, I'm going to Xiaobai's house for dinner, will you go?"
"We will check out the room and return to Fengcheng later. Your grandma misses you very much." Yu Shaoting said calmly, with a non-negotiable tone.
Bai Xiao couldn't help but interject: "Then go back after lunch."
Yu Shaoting turned his head slightly when he heard the sound, and met her pleading and watery eyes, which were like a small feather gently sweeping over his heart.
"Dad, I will be hungry on the road if I don't eat." Yu Jingxi actually doesn't want to go back to Fengcheng, but now he can stay with Bai Xiao for a while.
"Aren't you tired of eating the same dish all day long?" The words were addressed to Yu Jingxi, but Yu Shaoting kept his eyes on Bai Xiao.
Bai Xiao felt uncomfortable when he looked at her. She smoothed her broken hair around her temples and raised her hand to block his gaze without leaving a trace.
Yu Jingxi found that her father seemed to be in a good mood. In the past, if he had objected to something, he would never be so indifferent to her. She immediately grinned, turned around and ran into the bedroom. Not long after, she came out with a big schoolbag on her back, "Dad, I'm ready."
,let's go!"
——————————
In the elevator, Bai Xiao looked at Yu Jingxi who was chattering happily like a little sparrow, and suddenly felt that she was right in not recognizing him.
Just being by his side quietly like this is enough for me. Sometimes, the more you ask for, the more you lose.
Yu Shaoting stood on the side, seeing the complicated expression on Bai Xiao's face, and suddenly said: "Jing Xi, in a few days you will go to grandma's house to stay for a while."
Of course, this "grandma" doesn't refer to Bai Xiao's grandmother, and everyone around her, including the adults and children, obviously understood.
Bai Xiao turned to look at him in surprise, but she didn't expect that he really said that he wanted to send the child to the capital.
"Dad, I don't want to go, please don't send me there, okay?" Yu Jingxi hugged Yu Shaoting's long legs and twisted them reluctantly.
Yu Shaoting didn't say anything, and walked out first as soon as the elevator door opened. His generous and upright back looked a little unhuman in Bai Xiao's eyes.
——————————
Yu Shaoting drove the car to the entrance of the hotel, lowered the window, and saw Bai Xiao pushing a small electric donkey out from somewhere.
Yu Jingxi climbed into the back seat of the electric donkey with a big schoolbag on her back and smiled, then waved to Yu Shaoting with a wink, "Dad, please drive carefully."
Seeing the two people riding an electric donkey passing by the car, Yu Shaoting looked at the steering wheel in front of him and felt inexplicably irritated.
——————————
The little electric donkey drove smoothly on the road.
Yu Jingxi hugged Bai Xiao's waist and felt happy, but when she thought of going to her grandma's house, she felt sad again, so she couldn't help but call out: "Xiao Bai."
Bai Xiao suddenly heard the child behind him suddenly calling him, he hurriedly responded, and wanted to turn his head to look at him, "What's wrong?"
"I don't want to go to grandma's house." Yu Jingxi's childish voice was full of rejection, and she was crying because of her reluctance.
A small head rubbed against her back. Bai Xiao looked down at the small hands in front of her, which were tightly holding her clothes.
She also felt uncomfortable and wanted to stop the car and hold him in her arms to comfort him.
The beach-gold Bentley Continental followed slowly behind them.
Bai Xiao glanced at the car a few times in the rearview mirror of the eDonkey. Yu Jingxi's words made her upset, but Yu Shaoting's behavior was understandable.
Logically speaking, Xu Shuyuan is Yu Jingxi's nominal mother, and it is only natural that the grandparents want to see their grandson; but emotionally speaking, Bai Xiao actually does not want Yu Jingxi to go to the Xu family. I don't know if it is the child's previous words or her personal
Emotions are secretly causing trouble.
"Xiaobai, be careful!" Yu Jingxi suddenly shouted from behind.
Bai Xiao noticed an oncoming water sprinkler truck, so he applied the brakes and slowed down the car, gradually lining up with the Bentley Continental.
Yu Shaoting was in the car. He could tell at a glance what Bai Xiao was paying attention to. He stepped on the accelerator and the car sped away. Almost at the same time, a column of cold water poured on the little electric donkey. He half-lowered the window and listened to the sound from behind.
There were exclamations from one large and one small, and he looked at the traffic lights in front of him much more pleasantly than usual.
——————————
By the time Bai Xiao, whose pants were dripping wet, arrived home with Yu Jingxi, who was equally embarrassed, the Bentley Continental had long been parked steadily at the door.
"Why so slow? Xiao Shao has arrived early." Grandma came out of the kitchen carrying dishes and saw two people who looked like they were flowing through the ditch.
Bai Xiao became angry when she heard the word "Xiao Shao". She knew that Yu Shaoting had definitely done it on purpose, otherwise how could it be such a coincidence?
After leading Yu Jingxi into the house, Bai Xiao took off his pants, made him cover himself in the quilt, and took a hair dryer to blow off his wet pants.
Yu Jingxi rolled on his bed and wrapped himself up like a silkworm chrysalis, only revealing a pair of round eyes: "Xiaobai, pinch me."
Bai Xiao turned around and looked at him in confusion.
The little guy's eyes were bright, "Have I been dreaming these two days? It would be nice if it could always be like this."
Bai Xiao rubbed his head: "You are not dreaming. From now on...
The door creaked open, interrupting Bai Xiao's words. She turned her head and saw her grandmother coming in.
"The scrambled eggs with spring bamboo shoots are ready, go over and eat them while they're hot!"
The little guy whined, casually put on the pants that Bai Xiao had dried on him, put on his shoes and ran away without a trace.
"Be careful!" Bai Xiao saw him stumbling and was about to chase him out, but was stopped by her grandmother, "Xiao Xiao, I have something to tell you."
Grandma patted the stool next to her and said, "Come and sit down."
As soon as Bai Xiao sat down, the old man looked a little guilty and asked, "Grandma, are you okay?"
"Can't I talk to you if I have nothing to do?" Grandma glared at her pretending to be angry, and then poured her a glass of water.
Bai Xiao took the water glass and just took a sip when she heard the old man say: "How come you gave birth to a son as big as Jing Xi outside and didn't even know you wanted to know me?"
A mouthful of water stuck in her throat, and Bai Xiao's face turned red from coughing. Grandma patted her back: "Drink slowly, look at you, you are worse than Jing Xi."
When grandma mentioned Yu Jingxi, her voice became much kinder, full of love and satisfaction.
Bai Xiao's heart beat faster and she didn't dare to look at the old man. She didn't expect that her grandmother already knew about it, and she suddenly felt on pins and needles.
"Why are you panicking? I didn't scold you."
Bai Xiao: "Grandma, I..."
Grandma waved her hand and said, "Xiao Shao has already told me everything. Just treat this as repaying the Pei family's life-saving grace. From now on, our two families will not owe each other anything."
After hearing this, Bai Xiao's eyes became moist and hot.
Yu Jingxi's clear childlike voice came from outside the house. Grandma turned her head and glanced towards the door, with relief in her eyes: "Xiao Shao is a nice guy. You should go back to Fengcheng with him and live a good life with him in the future..."
"Grandma," Bai Xiao felt that the old man had misunderstood something, "he and I are not what you think."
"You two already have children, do you two still want to settle your relationship?" Grandma pretended to be displeased with a tigerish face.
Bai Xiao couldn't argue. Grandma sighed when she saw her like this, and then held her hand: "I don't have many days left. I used to hope that you could live happily with Qiyouhe and give birth to a big fat boy in the future.
I didn’t expect it... Now that I have a great-grandson, the only one I’m worried about is you."
——————————
Bai Xiao didn't know what Yu Shaoting said to his grandmother, and he actually asked the old man to help him speak like this.
Grandma is not a short-sighted woman and will not let her follow Yu Shaoting regardless of anything just because she is greedy for his family background.
Entering the main room, the father and son of the Yu family had already taken their seats. Yu Jingxi grabbed a pair of long chopsticks with his little fleshy hands and put spring bamboo shoots and scrambled eggs into his mouth. Grandma smiled and pushed Bai Xiao, "I bought wine, you give me
Xiao Shao, pour me a glass." As she said that, a bottle of wine was already thrust into her hand.
Yu Shaoting raised his head and looked over with a heavy gaze. The cup in front of him was empty. After his grandmother finished speaking, he did not say anything to shirk her words.
Bai Xiao went over and poured him a glass. Grandma had already placed a bowl of rice on the empty seat next to Yu Shaoting, "Sit down and eat."
Grandma's actions before and after showed one thing - she was bringing Bai Xiao and Yu Shaoting together.
Bai Xiao sat down very uncomfortably, minding her own meal. Yu Shaoting only glanced at her when she sat down, and didn't look at her again after that.
After finishing the meal, everyone seemed quite happy except for Bai Xiao who was worried.
After the meal, Bai Xiao was about to clear up the leftovers, but her grandmother suddenly said: "Let's go visit your grandfather's grave this afternoon."
Bai Xiao stopped what he was doing and looked at the old man in surprise.
But grandma asked Yu Shaoting with a smile: "Xiao Shao, are you still free this afternoon?"
Yu Shaoting looked handsome and calm. When Bai Xiao thought he would refuse, he nodded and asked, "What do I need to buy?"
"Didn't you say you would go back to Fengcheng in the afternoon?" Bai Xiao said it almost subconsciously.
Yu Shaoting glanced at her indifferently, but her grandmother had already slapped her on the arm, which made Bai Xiao take a breath in pain.
"I said, why are you so out of tune? Are you not even willing to go see your grandpa?"
Bai Xiao felt aggrieved, covering her arms and explaining: "That's not what I meant..."
Yu Shaoting, who was sitting aside, twitched his lips and smiled softly: "Maybe she is not used to me and Jing Xi being here."
This sentence undoubtedly added fuel to the fire. Grandma glared at Bai Xiao unhappily, and regained her spring-like warmth when speaking to Yu Shaoting: "She has such a bad temper, Xiao Shao, what do you want to eat tonight? I asked Xiao
Xiao, go to the vegetable market and buy some."
"Spring bamboo shoots and scrambled eggs." Yu Jingxi shouted anxiously, holding up his chopsticks.
Grandma touched his furry little head and smiled from ear to ear: "I eat this for every meal, and I don't change the taste."
Yu Jingxi stuffed a mouthful of eggs and said inarticulately: "Grandma's cooking is delicious. I can't get enough of it."
Yu Shaoting took a sip of tea and looked at his son who was coaxing the old man around. He noticed someone glaring at him from the side and turned his head casually. Bai Xiao had already picked up the bowl and chopsticks and turned around, leaving him with a slender figure.
figure.
——————————
Grandpa's tombstone is halfway up the mountain behind the village. It's the Spring Festival, and people often go up the mountain to visit the tomb.
When Bai Xiao heard that Yu Shaoting was also going to visit the grave, she was very upset because she found that her grandmother had placed Yu Shaoting in the position of her grandson-in-law.
In front of the tombstone, Yu Shaoting suddenly said to Yu Jingxi: "Go up and kowtow to grandpa."
The little guy pursed his lips and looked serious. He really knelt down on the cardboard and then kowtowed to the photo on the tombstone in a decent manner.
Grandma's eyes turned red, and she turned away and touched the corners of her eyes. When she turned back, she had a faint smile on her face, and the folds at the corners of her eyes shone with water in the sunlight.
Bai Xiao looked at the man offering incense to his grandpa. Regardless of whether he was acting or not, he had to say that he was very good at winning people's hearts. At least grandma was submissive to him.
It was almost evening when we came down from the mountain. Grandma took the initiative to ask Yu Shaoting: "Xiao Shao, when do you plan to go back?"
Yu Shaoting's deep gaze fell on Bai Xiao. When he saw her looking away, he looked back: "Tomorrow morning."
"That's a good relationship. Xiaoxiao is about to return to Fengcheng. If it's convenient for you, take her along."
"Grandma!" Bai Xiao just wanted to stop grandma from continuing to pull the red line, but Yu Shaoting said one word: "Okay."
"Then let's do it!" The old man agreed immediately, and then warmly welcomed the guests: "Then you and Jing Xi can sleep at home tonight."
Bai Xiao: "..."
——————————
After dinner, Yu Jingxi ate an apple and watched cartoons. Yu Shaoting sat next to him and drank tea, showing no intention of getting up to say goodbye.
Bai Xiao originally thought he would reject her grandmother's proposal, but he never expressed his stance from beginning to end.
While sweeping the floor, Bai Xiao said to Yu Jingxi intentionally or unintentionally: "There are only two guns at home, maybe you have to squeeze in with me."
This proposal played into Yu Jingxi's heart, but Yu Shaoting raised his eyes to look at her, his dark eyes seemed to have seen through her little thoughts.
Bai Xiao felt numb when he saw him, and stopped sweeping the floor. He turned around and left the main room and breathed a sigh of relief. He felt as if he had stolen the chicken but lost the rice.
If Yu Shaoting really stayed the night...
Bai Xiao entered the room and went to get the quilt from the cupboard. She couldn't let her breasts out. If he wanted to keep it, he would sleep on the sofa.
As soon as she opened the cabinet, Bai Xiao was stunned. It was empty, not even a quilt.
Bai Xiao went to the kitchen to find her grandma. While washing the dishes, the old man said casually: "Oh, there were guests at your Uncle Li's house next door yesterday. They came over to borrow quilts in the evening. I thought they wouldn't use them anyway, so I let them take them all away."
,Why, you want to use it?"
Bai Xiao looked at the old man quietly, pursed his lips and said nothing.
The old man touched his face and asked, "Is there something dirty on my face?"
"I'll hang out with you tonight."
Grandma frowned and firmly disagreed: "My quilt is so small. I'm old and in poor health. What if you make me catch a cold?"
Bai Xiao felt that the old man did it on purpose, but there was nothing he could do about it, "Now tell me, how are you going to sleep tonight?"
"I thought it was a big problem." Grandma smiled and squinted at Bai Xiao, "Why don't the three of you just sleep together for one night."
"The quilt in my room is not big..."
Grandma was surprised: "Isn't it big? I think it can sleep four people, let alone three."
——————————
Bai Xiao returned to the room, spread out the quilt on the bed, and finally understood what her grandmother said, "It can sleep four people."
The quilt was not the one she had slept on before, but she searched the room and couldn't find any other quilt. Apparently the old man had arranged it long ago!
When she came out of the room, she saw Yu Jingxi washing her face in the yard with a small basin, and someone was also washing in the bathroom.
Bai Xiao's temples were beating hard. They were already ready to take a rest. How could she issue an eviction order?
"What are you doing standing there?" Grandma poked her head out of the kitchen, "Don't you have a set of men's pajamas in your closet? Bring it for Xiao Shao to wear."
Bai Xiao was startled. She bought that set of pajamas for Pei Qiyou several years ago. At that time, he took her to Liyang to celebrate the New Year on an impromptu basis. The two of them came in a hurry and didn't bring any luggage. Toiletries and pajamas were all bought here.
Yes, Pei Qiyou stayed with her until she was called away by Mr. Pei, who didn't even have time to put on her pajamas.
