Nan Xiaonan was happy when she saw He Xuanwan's sudden appearance, but when her beautiful mother suddenly said such words, Nan Xiaonan was stunned on the spot, holding the bun in both hands.
Her round eyes looked in the direction of He Xuanwan, seemingly unable to understand what she said.
No one expected that He Xuanwan would show up like this just after he came back. The housekeeper immediately stepped forward and calmed her down softly: "Madam, please calm down, it's still dinner time."
It was just a hot-headed thing to say at first, but for He Xuanwan, this child whom he personally brought back and planned to take good care of unexpectedly had such a good relationship with his ex-wife's son without knowing it was a slap in the face.
"Xiaonan!" He Xuanwan stretched out her hand to Nan Xiaonan, her tone unceremonious, "Come here, come to mom."
Nan Xiaonan is rarely called by her mother's name. She basically does not appear in Nan Xiaonan's field of vision. Although she does not say it, how can a child who has always longed for her mother refuse her mother's request?
Xuanwan's expression seemed to make him instinctively afraid, but his body instinctively placed the steamed buns he loved on the table and wanted to jump off Nan Qinse's legs.
But Nan Xiaonan jumped into the air and was suddenly intercepted by Nan Qinse's hand. Nan Xiaonan watched helplessly as the ground became farther and farther away from her, and then her body was buckled into Nan Qinse's arms. Nan Qinse turned her eyes.
With her eyes half open, Nan Xiaonan could only see half of his emotions.
"Is Xiaonan full?" Nan Qinse asked.
"……Um."
"Is that so?" Nan Qinse turned around and picked up the steamed buns that Nan Xiaonan had put down and placed them in Nan Xiaonan's hands. "He Ming, come here and carry Xiaonan back to the room."
"But mom is calling me." Nan Xiaonan seemed a little reluctant, and saw some resistance from the second brother who came over and stretched out his hands to him, "Mom asked me to go over, and the eldest brother let me down."
"She's not calling you, she's calling me." Nan Qinse closed her eyes and let Nan Heming take Nan Xiaonan over.
"No, my name is Xiaonan."
"Good boy, don't make trouble. You heard me wrong." Nan Heming whispered comfortingly in Nan Xiaonan's ear, "Big brother has something to do now, can you go back with second brother first?"
Nan Xiaonan was still doubtful and looked at He Xuanwan subconsciously, as if she wanted to confirm something.
How could He Xuanwan endure two juniors leading his son unscrupulously in front of her? She subconsciously wanted to scold her, but she directly met Nan Qinse's eyes. Behind Nan Xiaonan's back, she couldn't see anything.
The gentle temperament when he hugged Xiaonan had disappeared in an instant. The corners of his lips drooped, and his eyes darkened. He was like a proud grandfather, and his eyebrows were filled with haze, strong momentum and already overwhelming.
At this moment, He Xuanwan seemed to be shrouded in a dark shadow, and her instinctive fear prevented her from moving.
"Mom." When Nan Heming held him and passed by He Xuanwan, Nan Xiaonan subconsciously looked at the beautiful mother, but Nan Heming's hand blocked Nan Xiaonan's sight, and the tip of Nan Xiaonan's nose
He could smell a familiar smell that was not pleasant. He had smelled it on his second brother before. It was said that it was the smell of alcohol.
Nan Xiaonan was a little uneasy, but when she turned around, she saw the housekeeper standing in front of He Xuanwan, smiling and bowing to him, as if to send him away. Nan Xiaonan held the steamed bun in her hand, her eyes widened, and she didn't understand what was happening.
After confirming that Nan Xiaonan had left, Nan Qinse slowly spoke: "Auntie, what are you talking about? Are you questioning Xiaonan's lack of education? Then rushing into the restaurant and yelling at a child would be considered a crime.
Have you educated yourself?"
Nan Qinse's voice was light and airy, and she did not show the slightest displeasure. She did not take He Xuanwan's words seriously.
"He is your biological son. You did not educate him. Do you want him to be self-taught? For a five-year-old child who doesn't even know a word?" Nan Qinse slightly covered her lips with her fingers as if to hide her sarcasm.
He smiled, but the corners of his mouth never curled up.
"Nan Qinse, you also know that Xiaonan is my son, so what are you doing now? Do you want to steal my son?" He Xuanwan could not refute these two sentences, but in her heart she had been unable to control these two things.
The two sons were very afraid, "Originally, when I brought Xiao Nan back, I planned to take her with me so that she could be well-educated. But now you have occupied my and my son's family time. Do you still have the nerve to question me?"
"You and Xiaonan's family time? Do you want to squeeze it out of the play time of your rich ladies?"
"Just a high school kid is not qualified to dictate how adults socialize." Of course, He Xuanwan is not a fool to sit in the Nan family's seat. She has also tried hard to communicate with these two children. She
The fact that I have not been close to Nan Xiaonan has been more or less affected by these two children. I subjectively think that children are difficult to communicate with.
"Using age and status to suppress others will put you at a disadvantage from the beginning."
"As long as it works, no matter what, I will still be your legal mother!"
Nan Qinse was not angry because of He Xuanwan's provocation. On the contrary, when he dismissed Nan Xiaonan, he did not intend to quarrel with this woman. No matter how reluctant he was to admit it, in Xiaonan's heart, at Xiaonan's age, he longed for his mother.
He is definitely not someone who can be replaced by his brother.
"Pick up your emotions, the mistress of the Nan family can't behave in such a childish way." Nan Qinse didn't want to get entangled in useless arguments, "You smell of alcohol, how can I be sure that you are sober now? Since you want to give Xiao Nan
A good upbringing must at least start with yourself. We don’t have too high demands on you, but at least you must set a good example as a mother in front of Xiaonan!"
At the age when children need relatives the most, the body's instinct has become accustomed to being alone for five years. In the following years, He Xuanwan has never been able to assume the responsibility of a mother. From beginning to end, Nan Xiaonan has never been in a normal life.
In addition to his own personality and instinct, Nan Xiaonan also attaches great importance to family relationships. He Xuanwan does not want to exclude He Xuanwan from Nan Xiaonan's life for the time being, at least within a controllable range.
I want to give Nan Xiaonan a normal mother.
"You don't need to worry about this matter. The matters between mother and son need to be resolved by ourselves."
"Based on your current mentality, what do you want to solve?" Nan Qinse knocked on the table, obviously sitting on the chair at the dining table, but she felt that she was in a different status, "You still haven't been able to accept Xiaonan.
, in this case, the thing to do is not to keep Xiaonan by your side impatiently, but to consult a psychiatrist immediately."
"In what capacity are you ordering me now?"
"As the master who can easily determine your existence in the Nan family in the future."
He Xuanwan was shocked and sneered: "When you say this, do you mean you don't take your father seriously?"
"Yes." Nan Qinse didn't feel guilty at all, her eyes were extremely calm, like a bottomless pool that couldn't be seen through. Her determined expression made He Xuanwan have to believe that even if Nan Yun was standing here now, he would
Say the same thing.
The young man in front of her, whom she had never understood, seemed to be more difficult to deal with than she had imagined, and he was deliberately targeting her regarding Xiao Nan's matter.
He likes Nan Xiaonan? How is that possible? The relationship between Nan Qinse and Nan Heming is not good to begin with. Let alone the blood relationship between brothers, this is just a joke to her.
"If you control Nan Xiaonan to deal with me, what good will it do to you?"
"Ha." Nan Qinse smiled lightly, stood up and missed He Xuanwan's side, "I have never taken you seriously."
Being able to calmly talk nonsense to this woman here is for Nan Xiaonan's sake. This woman has never been stupid, but if he insists on being stupid, he has the ability to completely eliminate this woman from Nan Xiaonan.
Outside of life, even... outside of the Nan family.
The decision-making power lies in He Xuanwan's hands.
Damn it! He Xuanwan's head hurts because she drank too much at night, and she was so angry at Nan Qin that she couldn't speak. How on earth could that woman give birth to two monster-like sons?
Nan Xiaonan was holding the steamed bun in her hand. Before she could recover from He Xuanwan's roar, Nan Heming put the little guy on the bed, lowered his head and took a bite of Nan Xiaonan's steamed bun, which attracted the child's attention: "
It doesn’t seem to be too hot anymore. Hot steamed buns are delicious. Would you like my second brother to change them for you?”
And then take the opportunity to teach that stupid woman a lesson. She said such words in front of Xiaonan? I was really angry.
"Is it very uncultured for me to sit on my elder brother's lap to eat?" However, Nan Xiaonan suddenly asked. Nan Heming was stunned for a moment, raised his head, and met the child's serious eyes.
"No, of course not."
"Really?" There was no fear or sadness in Xiaonan's eyes as he thought, but she was really taking this issue seriously.
"No, this is because the eldest brother and the second brother love you very much. The fact that the eldest brother and the second brother love you has nothing to do with others." Nan Heming kissed Nan Xiaonan's little finger holding the bun and answered his question seriously,
"Education is not a fixed thing, but the attitude towards others and the way to behave in a way that will not inconvenience others. Xiaonan will gradually understand this in the future."
"I don't quite understand." Nan Xiaonan wrinkled her delicate brows in confusion and thought very seriously, "What does it mean to be educated?"
"It doesn't matter, because Xiaonan is a very well-educated child."
Nan Xiaonan blinked, looked at Nan Heming, and then at the steamed bun in his hand: "Is mom wrong?"
"Yes." Nan Heming nodded.
"Really?" Nan Xiaonan breathed a sigh of relief after getting a positive answer, "Then will she still be angry tomorrow?"
How could Nan Heming care if the woman was angry? Anyway, he was very angry now. His lovely Xiao Nan was so well-educated, but that woman was just talking nonsense.
"She said the wrong thing. She should apologize to Xiaonan. Why does Xiaonan still care whether she is angry or not? Xiaonan should tell her the story of how she apologized!"
However, Nan Xiaonan shook her head seriously: "Whether you want to apologize or not is a matter for you to decide, not for others to decide."
Nan Heming was stunned: "Um, really?"
"Yeah." Nan Xiaonan nodded, "If someone is pressing his head to apologize, then he definitely doesn't mean it, so an apology is only useful if you want to apologize."
"Why does Xiaonan know?"
"Grandma said that."
Nan Heming, who had never been able to get along with that grandma in his previous life, became very curious about the old man Nan Xiaonan mentioned. How could the old man teach Xiaonan to be such a lovely child because he had so much experience?
?Nan Heming is seriously considering the possibility of taking the old man over.
"I was very thirsty that day, so I picked watermelon from someone else's garden and went home to eat it. Grandma saw it and asked me to tell them and apologize." Nan Xiaonan recalled seriously, "I don't know why.
Apologize, obviously everyone will pick things in our fields. I saw it with my own eyes. I didn’t want to go, and grandma didn’t drag me there. I asked grandma why she didn’t drag me to apologize, because I saw that the grandma of the boy next door was.
When I took him to apologize, my grandma told me that if I didn’t know why I was apologizing, it would be in vain.”
"Did Xiaonan apologize in the end?"
"Um."
"Why?"
"Because I've thought about it for a long time and figured it out." Nan Xiaonan lowered his head and poked the white bun unconsciously with his hand, "It's because I took other people's things without their consent. There was no one in the field at that time, so I just
Stealing, stealing is wrong, I did something wrong, so I have to apologize."
Nan Heming's anger was mostly dissipated by the memory of Nan Xiaonan's milky voice, and his heart was filled with tenderness: "Xiaonan did a great job."
"Second brother praised me." Nan Xiaonan smiled, "It proves that Xiaonan did a great job."
"Xiaonan is the best!"
"When mom thinks about it, she will come and apologize to me." Nan Xiaonan smiled without any hesitation.
"Who knows?" Nan Heming's tone was unconsciously sarcastic.
Nan Xiaonan is a very sensitive child. Although he cannot accurately judge Nan Heming's tone, he vaguely sensed something.
"It doesn't matter if you don't apologize." Nan Xiaonan said seriously, holding Nan Heming who was half-kneeling in front of him, and kissed Nan Heming's forehead like an elder brother, "Because I'm not angry and I don't care, so
Second brother, don’t be angry and don’t care.”
After Nan Heming heard this, he hugged Nan Xiaonan, causing Xiaonan to hold up the steamed bun in her hand.
Nan Qinse, who was leaning outside the door and heard most of it, breathed out a breath unconsciously. Without asking, he either cared too much or didn't care.
