When Xiaodouzi woke up from his dream, he found that he was sitting on the small bed with his little arms and legs.
She never grew up.
Zhang Ling heard the sound and came over, holding Xiaodouzi in her arms and comforting her.
"Don't be afraid. Mom is here. Mom is here to accompany you. Don't be afraid..."
Xiaodouzi cried and recounted the scenes in her dream that confused and frightened her.
Zhang Ling listened to the child's story.
She got it!
It is difficult for a child like Xiaodouzi to establish her own independent and confident personality.
It is easiest to live in the opinions of others.
So this child has been working hard to make everyone around her like her from the beginning.
Sometimes it makes me feel really sad to see Xiaodouzi working so hard!
Even if she is an adult, it will be very tiring to do what Xiaodouzi is.
You must know that no one person in the world can be liked by everyone.
Even a saint can't do it.
Therefore, a person with an independent and confident personality always follows his heart.
Then her first priority is to help Xiaodouzi establish an independent and confident personality.
Xiaodouzi, who was finally awakened again, fell asleep.
As soon as Zhang Ling returned to the bed, sat down and yawned, she was startled by Yan Yuan's muttering.
Yan Yuan seemed to be saying:
"Did you sleep, Xiaodouzi? If you can't sleep, we can chat for a while."
Yan Yuan lost her sleepiness because of Xiaodouzi's shouting.
I just couldn't sleep with my eyes squinted.
In fact, it was Yan Yuan who really wanted to talk to Zhang Ling for a while.
Zhang Ling turned around and saw Yan Yuan with her eyes closed.
She took it for granted that Yan Yuan was talking in her sleep.
So Zhang Ling lay down and prepared to sleep without responding.
Unexpectedly, Yan Yuan's voice rang in his ears again.
"Hey, Zhang Ling, you've gone too far! I'm talking to you. Why are you ignoring me?"
Zhang Ling was completely shocked by Yan Yuan's words and no longer felt sleepy.
He suddenly sat up from the bed, raised his hand and patted Yan Yuan on the body and said:
"You damn girl, you are so annoying! This is great, you scared me away from my sleepiness. Forget it, I will just chat with you."
Yan Yuan also sat up from the bed, acting shamelessly like a child, holding her arms with both hands, and happily nestled on her shoulders and said:
"My dear, you are so kind! If you hadn't already had Li Xiang, if I were a man, I would really want to marry you in this life."
"Get out!" Zhang Ling reached out and pushed Yan Yuan away, "If you were a man, I would never let you get into my bed."
"Why?" Yan Yuan asked loudly.
"Keep your voice down!" Zhang Ling glanced at Xiaodouzi in the distance with some worry, and complained to Yan Yuan, "How old are you? You still speak so regardless of the occasion. What if a child hears you?
what to do?"
Yan Yuan also glanced at Xiaodouzi and said:
"It's okay. As long as a child of this age falls asleep, you won't wake up even if you leave her on the street."
Zhang Ling became even more nervous and reached out to cover Yan Yuan's mouth.
You must know that Xiaodouzi is most taboo about such words.
Xiaodouzi on the small bed in the distance seemed to be really stimulated by Yan Yuan's words.
He was tossing and turning on the small bed.
Zhang Ling looked at Yan Yuan with sparks in her eyes.
It felt like Yan Yuan was being eaten alive.
Only then did Yan Yuan realize that he had said the wrong thing.
The moment Zhang Ling let go of her hand, she expressed her apology.
Zhang Ling seemed to know that the child on the crib was not asleep.
She gestured to Yan Yuan and said:
"You don't have to say this to me, please say it to your child."
To be honest, Yan Yuan couldn't tell whether Xiaodouzi really woke up.
I had no choice but to follow Zhang Ling's advice and say sorry to the child on the crib.
It’s also very strange!
Yan Yuan had just finished his apology.
Xiaodouzi, who was restless, returned to a peaceful state again.
Yan Yuan asked in surprise:
"Lingling, do you think Xiaodouzi woke up just now?"
Zhang Ling observed for a while and explained:
"no."
Yan Yuan was skeptical and said:
"That's weird! How do you explain Xiaodouzi's reaction just now?"
Zhang Ling explained to Yan Yuan with some distress:
"Did you know that humans also have an unconscious reaction? Xiaodouzi's unconscious reaction to that sentence has penetrated into every cell in the body."
Xiaodouzi experienced being abandoned at a young age!
The impact of this injury is too deep.
Even when sleeping, he remains alert.
Be wary of being abandoned again.
Yan Yuan gave Zhang Ling a roll of her eyes after hearing the explanation.
Regardless of her obstruction.
He stood up curiously.
He came to Xiaodouzi's bed and observed Xiaodouzi carefully.
Trying to find any clues to prove that Xiaodouzi woke up.
Because Yan Yuan didn't believe Zhang Ling's statement.
When he reached out and touched Xiaodouzi's cheek, he saw Xiaodouzi's eyes rolling under his eyelids, and then he showed a happy smile.
The warmth of the hands made Xiaodouzi feel safe.
This must have given the child a sweet dream.
That smile is proof.
Only then did Yan Yuan reluctantly believe Zhang Ling's statement.
He returned to bed and said to Zhang Ling:
"Sister, I admire you more and more now. You are nothing more than a mother...even a biological mother is nothing more than that."
This is a sign of admiration for Zhang Ling’s real dedication to being Xiaodouzi’s mother.
Therefore, we can accurately tell what each behavior of the child means.
However, Yan Yuan was still conservative.
Many mothers in today's society are becoming less and less like mothers.
The selfish ones are only for personal enjoyment, abandoning their own flesh and blood to pursue the so-called true love.
If you ask these mothers what their children like.
Not to mention they know their children’s preferences.
I'm afraid they have long forgotten the date of birth of the child they abandoned.
Even so, when these mothers are in trouble, they still have the nerve to lick their faces and resort to moral kidnapping, asking their abandoned children to feed them back.
Zhang Ling said that if she met such a mother.
She must know only the word "dream" for each other in front of everyone.
If the other party continues to shamelessly ask why.
Then Zhang Ling can only find an opportunity to angrily scold these selfish mothers in front of everyone.
"You gave birth to me out of your own temporary passion, but you didn't want to fulfill your responsibilities of raising me. Why didn't you just not give birth to me in the first place?"
Zhang Ling really can’t figure it out!
The act of not nourishing the child is definitely like murder.
Why is there no law to punish such unscrupulous parents?
It actually allows unscrupulous parents to breed such ridiculous behaviors as neglecting their children and raising them, and forcing their abandoned children to feed them back when they are in trouble.
Yan Yuan saw that Zhang Ling's remarks were a bit heavy.
So he laughed awkwardly, changed the subject and said:
"Lingling, stop talking about this. I have something important to tell you."
Zhang Ling could hear Yan Yuan's serious tone.
Only then did he come out of the negative emotions just now.
She asked with some curiosity:
"What's the matter? Don't tell me, you're getting married."
"No! I'm not as lucky as you. Not only do you have a current Li Xiang who loves you so much, but you also have an ex who is chasing after you. I have nothing but envy for you."
"Well?"
On the surface, Zhang Ling was pleased to hear these words.
But after thinking about it, I found that Yan Yuan's expression had other meanings.
So he continued to say to Yan Yuan:
"Okay, don't say these useless things. Or tell me what you really want to express?"
Yan Yuan glanced at the child on the crib and said:
"Since you have lived here with Li Xiang, I think you have probably already seen what Xiaodouzi has been looking forward to. So I want to ask you what exactly you think?"
Zhang Ling understands what Yan Yuan means?
But she really didn't want to answer this question just yet.
She guessed that Yan Yuan must have been entrusted by Li Xiang.
That's why I was insinuating her.
She didn't want Li Xiang to succeed easily.
So he deliberately changed the subject and said:
"Child! It's very simple. What can you expect? It's just to eat and drink enough, and then live happily every day."
After hearing this, Yan Yuan shook his head and said:
"Do you know what I mean by asking? I also know that you must have misunderstood me for asking this, and you must have been entrusted by Li Xiang. No, I can tell you clearly. This is Xiaodouzi's meaning."
"Little beans!"
Zhang Ling is a little strange!
Since it means Xiaodouzi.
Why did it come from Yan Yuan’s mouth?
Yan Yuan explained:
"Yes, Xiaodouzi has always been looking forward to you two becoming a real family. She also said that she also hopes that you and Li Xiang will give birth to a little brother for her. She also promised that she will be a good sister."
"Did she really say that?" Zhang Ling was a little doubtful of Yan Yuan's words.
But it's also a little tight.
Because she knew Xiaodouzi.
I really thought Xiaodouzi would say something similar to this.
Yan Yuan nodded and continued:
"Please don't treat Xiaodouzi as an ignorant child. This is what you said to me at the beginning. It wasn't until Xiaodouzi said those words to me that I truly understood that you were right! Xiaodouzi does not look like that
a child."
As he spoke, Yan Yuan's face showed a bit of joy, a bit of appreciation, and even a bit of heartache.
I feel sorry for Xiaodouzi who has endured too much that he shouldn't have to endure at such a young age.
"You said it very well!" Zhang Ling said with a smile, then quickly stopped her smile and said seriously, "However, there is still something I don't understand."
"What's wrong with you? You suspect that I lied to you!"
"Don't get me wrong, I never said that."
That's what Zhang Ling said.
But she did have such doubts in her heart.
She is even more suspicious of Yan Yuan's taking advantage of Li Xiang.
That's why I deliberately used Xiaodouzi to say those words.
Yan Yuan explained somewhat dumbfounded:
"Please, Zhang Ling, please understand that we have been together for many years. Do you think I would say those words? No way. I promise they are Xiaodouzi's exact words."
Zhang Ling sneered and continued:
"You and I both know that Xiaodouzi calls me mother, but he calls you aunt."
Yan Yuan asked with a gloomy expression:
"What do you mean? Zhang Ling, you are not kind. Are you laughing at me?"
As time went by, Yan Yuan fell in love with Xiaodouzi more and more.
So I am very envious of Xiaodouzi being called Zhang Ling’s mother.
Yan Yuan also expressed her desire to be Xiaodouzi’s mother.
Xiaodouzi expressed it more than once:
"I only have one mother in my life. And it can only be Zhang Ling."
The implication.
Even if the biological parents come to find Xiaodouzi in the future.
Xiaodouzi will never recognize his biological parents.
Zhang Ling shook her head and explained:
"In terms of intimacy, Xiaodouzi can definitely say what you just said to me in person. I don't understand why this child has to ask you to convey the message in such a cumbersome manner? This is unreasonable!"
Zhang Ling confidently believed that Xiaodouzi would never hide anything from her.
But he seems to have overlooked that he also has secrets to his father that he has not told.
"That's not because of you!"
"because I?"
"Yes, it's because of you. It's not that Xiaodouzi has never expressed his wishes to you. But every time he expresses his wishes, he gets your rejection."
"When have I ever refused? No, I should say that I have never heard Xiaodouzi express it."
As soon as Zhang Ling finished speaking, a flash of thought reminded her that Xiaodouzi really wished he had expressed his wish to her.
And she did refuse more than once.
She had been rejected so many times that if it were her, she would not dare to express her wishes in person anymore.
Yan Yuan saw that Zhang Ling seemed to have remembered something.
At this time, he smiled slightly and said:
"Looking at you, you must have remembered something."
Zhang Ling nodded in a low voice and said:
"This kid is real! Before, every time she mentioned me, she thought it was Li Xiang's intention. Xiaodouzi was just bribed and used by Li Xiang. Now it seems that I was wrong."
What she was referring to was those words that Li Xiang considered to be divine assists.
On the surface, it was to assist Li Xiang in pursuing Zhang Ling.
In fact, he was trying to guess Zhang Ling's wishes through Li Xiang.
Use this to judge the probability that Xiaodouzi can achieve his final wish.
Obviously, she refused again and again.
Xiaodouzi felt that the probability of being rejected by her if he expressed it directly was too high!
That's why I thought of letting Yan Yuan serve as a lobbyist.
Think of this.
Zhang Ling sighed helplessly.
Because Xiaodouzi still doesn't fully trust her.
In other words, this child's inferiority complex makes him always cautious.
Therefore, she is still using expression skills for basic verbal expressions as a mother.
That's because I'm afraid that direct expression will result in her rejection.
"Zhang Ling, Zhang Ling, can you admit that you were wrong? This is really not easy!"
Yan Yuan seemed to have achieved unprecedented gratifying results on the battlefield.
So I was a little happy and couldn't open my mouth from ear to ear.
"Do you have to be so happy?"
"Of course! A great god like you will never be able to easily understand the joy of ordinary citizens like us."
Zhang Ling is perfect in every aspect.
It's as if Yan Yuan exists to set off Zhang Ling.
"Okay, stop talking here." Zhang Ling subconsciously glanced at the time on the bedside alarm clock, "It's getting late. We have to go to work tomorrow. Let's go to sleep."
Maybe Yan Yuan developed a habit of listening to Zhang Ling.
So I habitually followed Zhang Ling to lie down together.
The moment my head touches the pillow.
Yan Yuan sat up from the bed again as if he was electrocuted.
"Oh, that's not right! Zhang Ling, you haven't told me the answer yet. I almost fell asleep because of you."
While speaking, Yan Yuan grabbed Zhang Ling's arm with both hands and shook it, her eyes full of expectation and she said:
"Hey, don't try to pretend to be asleep to escape. Tell me what you think."
"Okay, don't wake up Xiaodouzi. I said okay." Zhang Ling did not open her eyes.
It feels like I already have the answer.
They say the eyes are the windows to the soul.
It was as if she was closing her eyes to prevent Yan Yuan from seeing the true thoughts in her heart.
"Speak, tell me, I'm listening."
Finally I can hear the answer.
This is also the answer Yan Yuan wants to know.
So I am looking forward to it even more.
"how to say?"
Yan Yuan said impatiently:
"Oh, you can say whatever you want. Just make the problem clear."
Zhang Ling still closed her eyes, then pursed her lips and said:
"Let's put it this way. Yan Yuan, you often told me when something happened before that men have extraordinary obsession with women they can't get. So I'm trying to make myself obsessed with Li Xiang. You should be able to understand."
