351. Xiaobai grew up (2/2)

 Zhang Tan and Xiao Bai were chatting in the living room, and Liuliu came slowly. He glanced at them listlessly, climbed onto the sofa, and lay on his back, with his bulging belly facing the sky.

She was so full that she couldn't eat any more.

"It's so good~~" The little guy didn't forget to praise him at this time. Even though he knew that Xi'er was drooling in the dish, he still couldn't help it and wanted to eat it more, until his stomach couldn't hold any more.

I didn't want to see anything, so I went to the living room and lay down, thinking about other things and diverting my attention.

The children worked hard together and finally finished both dishes. Zhang Tan went to pack the lunch box and saw Xi'er licking her fingers.

"hiahiahia, you've finished eating." Xi'er said happily.

Zhang Tan put away the lunch box and went to the kitchen to clean it. At the same time, he praised Xi'er: "The food your sister cooks is so delicious. Everyone likes it."

Hearing this, Xi'er happily followed him to the kitchen like a little tail. Balabala praised her sister severely in front of Boss Zhang.

However, she said, there will never be such a delicious dish in the future, because this dish is rarely eaten in her family.

Zhang Tan heard this and immediately sent out an invitation: "Invite your sister to come to my house for dinner tomorrow at noon, and I will prepare delicious food for you."

"Boss Zhang, can Xi'er come? If my sister comes, I won't bring Xi'er. Since Xi'er can't cook, I will be hungry."

"Of course you have to come, come together, Xiaobai will come too."

"hiahia~~" Xi'er enthusiastically helped Zhang Tan invite the children, saying that Xiaomi should come too, Liuliu should also come, Cheng Cheng, Xiao Yingzi, Luo Zikang, and brother Jiang Bin...

This little Douding wants to invite all the children from Little Red Horse Academy, and he really knows how to lend flowers to Buddha.

However, Zhang Tan knew that Xi'er was not borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha, she really liked sharing.

The children sat at home for a while and watched TV. Xiao Yingzi invited everyone to play downstairs and took everyone away.

"Xiaobai, wait a moment."

Zhang Tan called out to Xiaobai, who was last.

"Where do you live?"

"Come here."

Zhang Tan took out a pack of socks and gave them to her, "Try them on."

Xiaobai didn't put it on immediately, but looked down at her little feet. Yes, her feet had come out of the socks again.

The child is very active, and his toes always poke holes in his socks. Malanhua is not around, and Bai Jianping is careless and cannot take care of him so carefully.

Zhang Tan took off Xiaobai's torn socks and watched her put on new ones.

"Hoohoho~~ I'm so good."

Xiaobai was very proud of himself, praising himself for being cute and beautiful. (PS: In Sichuan dialect, "haobei" means "very beautiful and cute")

"Boss Zhang, don't make any noise."

"I was thinking, Oh my god, why is she so cute?"

"Ha goose goose ha~~~"

"Huh?"

"What the hell?"

"Your little slippers seem a little too small, don't they?"

Xiaobai looked at her bear slippers and saw that the heels were sticking out.

"My child is young. What's wrong with that?"

Zhang Tan was stunned for a long time before he realized that the child meant shoes.

Although he had heard it many times before, he found it difficult to accept it every time he heard it.

"What's going on, Boss Zhang?" Xiaobai asked.

"Because you have grown up. You were small before and your feet were small, so wearing bear slippers was just right. But now that you have grown up, your feet have also grown up, and the small slippers cannot accommodate you."

Xiaobai was overjoyed and asked repeatedly if she had really grown up and why she didn't notice it.

Zhang Tan had never noticed it before. Wasn't he just surprised when he saw the little slippers?

Of course Xiaobai will grow up, but showing it in this concrete way is still full of surprises, as if you are seeing a little flower growing up.

After discovering the small slippers, Zhang Tan soon discovered that Xiaobai's clothes were also a little too small.

"Don't your feet hurt when you wear shoes?" Zhang Tan asked Xiaobai.

Xiaobai shook his head.

Zhang Tan didn't believe it and asked her to try it on.

The slippers are too small, and the shoes should also be too small. Wearing them will definitely chafe your feet.

But no! Xiaobai’s little shoes fit perfectly.

"Paws, haven't Xiaobai grown up?" Xiaobai was very disappointed.

Zhang Tan thought about it and understood, because when Malanhua buys shoes for Xiaobai, she always buys one size larger so that Xiaobai can wear them for a while longer.

When children grow taller, they buy clothes and shoes very quickly, and often have to change them all after wearing them for a short period of time.

When Bai Jianping came to pick up Xiaobai in the evening, Zhang Tan reminded him specifically that Bai Jianping lowered his head and looked at Xiaobai curiously, and Xiaobai raised his head and held his chest out, looking very impressive.

On the way home, passing through dimly lit alleys, Bai Jianping lamented that Xiaobai had grown up.

"You've grown up so quickly. Xiaobai, you've grown up too fast."

"Hoo ho ho, uncle, what do you mean by the claws? Are you unhappy about the claws when Xiaobai grows up?"

Bai Jianping smiled and said nothing. When he was a child, he was like Xiaobai, always hoping to grow up quickly and hoping to go back to the past when he grew up.

Growth is like a besieged city. People on the outside want to get in, and people on the inside want to get out. Because there is a wall separating them, they always think that the other side is better.

After returning home, he took care of Xiaobai, washed her face and feet, and told her to go to bed. Bai Jianping returned to the living room and lay half on the rocking chair. The TV was turned off. He turned his head and looked at the clock on the wall. It was almost 11 p.m.

He called Malanhua.

As soon as the call was connected, Malanhua asked: "Is Xiaobai asleep?"

"Just fell asleep." Bai Jianping said, he was a little helpless. Every time Lao Ma called him, the first sentence he said never had anything to do with him, it was all about Xiao Bai. Only after caring about Xiao Bai could he be in the mood to chat with him.

Two sentences.

Alas, Bai Jianping sighed inwardly, thinking that the man who looked like him had now become a daddy. This was the last thing he wanted to do.

He is optimistic by nature and yearns for freedom. Although his life is not satisfactory, the most important thing is to enjoy himself.

This is the opposite of Malanhua, who has an endless heart.

Nowadays, Bai Jianping can't feel comfortable anymore. He goes to work for work and gets off work for Xiaobai. It has been a long time since he lay down on a rocking chair and watched TV comfortably all night, and he hasn't eaten boiled peanuts for a long time. There are many on the market.

Yes, he had bought it, and it was far different from the one made by Lao Ma. After eating it once, he was not interested in visiting it a second time.

He didn't dare to drink anymore. Logically speaking, if Lao Ma wasn't around, he would be free to drink as much as he wanted. But whenever he wanted to drink, he would think of Xiao Bai, thinking that if he got drunk without Lao Ma,

What should I do if he scares Xiaobai?

Whenever he thought of this, he could only give up and go to the village in the city to buy some fried beans and chew them to resist the strong desire to drink.

Bai Jianping has never told anyone this, including Malanhua.

He cooperated with Ma Lanhua and chatted with Xiaobai for a while, and then talked about life outside Xiaobai.

The crew is about to wrap up filming...

The next door neighbor moved...

The landlord came today and said that the rent will be increased, which is ridiculous...

The owner of the bun shop downstairs hired a young man as a helper...

Last night, a female cat meowed in the alley downstairs all night. I heard that she gave birth to cubs, quintuplets...

The weather in Pujiang has been sunny these days, but the weather forecast says there will be rainy weather for more than a week...

The quilt cover and pillowcase were washed and dried yesterday as you asked...

The TV station’s anti-Japanese drama is over...

The boiled peanuts outside are terrible...

Hammer! The fried beans he bought downstairs got sand in them and almost chipped his teeth...



They are all trivial daily things, but Bai Jianping talks about them very passionately.

In the past, he often heard Lao Ma talk about these things, and often disliked her nagging, but now, he has become what she used to be.

He didn't realize it, but he wanted to tell Lao Ma everything he saw, heard, and everything that happened around him, no matter how big or small.

In this regard, there is no difference between an old couple who has been together for decades and a young man and woman who are passionately in love, because feelings do not distinguish between ages and years.
