Judging from Li Shiyi's age alone, she is not much older than Zhu Shushu.
After all, he is only twenty-six years old.
Zhu Shushu, who looked at the two of them, was extremely confused by the sudden appearance of this strange woman with her daughter in front of her.
No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't figure out why her cousin would be involved with the person who took care of the baby.
He glanced at Liu Weicheng, who was being pestered by a girl, and watched him use a coaxing tone to coax the children who were close to him into laughing in just a few words.
Is it my brother’s child?
As soon as the bold idea was generated in Zhu Shushu's mind, it lasted for less than a second and was quickly forgotten by her.
After all, they are totally incompatible in terms of age. A little girl who looks four or five years old would be a little too outrageous if she is really his brother.
She felt speechless for having such a ridiculous idea. What made Zhu Shushu even more speechless was that she didn't know why her cousin was always surrounded by various women.
So far, she has not seen any man come to Liu Weicheng...
The gaze from his cousin made Liu Weicheng unable to ignore him. Seeing the curiosity on his face, he was stunned for a moment before thinking of introducing him.
"This is Li Shiyi, and her daughter Yunyun."
"Hello."
Said hello.
As soon as Zhu Shushu finished speaking, the door to the room that was originally closed was violently pushed open from the inside.
Another agile figure rushed out of the room. She was lying comfortably in her cousin's room when she heard someone talking outside the room.
After opening the door and coming out, I immediately saw mother and daughter Li Shiyi in the living room.
His eyes only glanced around the adults, and soon turned their attention to the girl who was clinging to her cousin.
Compared with her sister, Zhu Qinqin is much younger.
Therefore, she is not too mature in thinking and still has the mentality of a child. She will often say things that others are embarrassed to say without any worries.
Raising her finger and pointing at Yunyun, Zhu Qinqin spoke with a slightly higher volume.
"Brother! It turns out you have a child! I want to tell my mother!"
"..."
As soon as the loud voice came out, Yunyun, who was already a little shy, shrank behind Liu Weicheng.
This child has always been extremely stage frightened, especially when other strangers are present. The reason why he is very lively when he is with Liu Weicheng is entirely because the two are already familiar with each other.
Now that she saw the two strange sisters appearing in Uncle Liu's house, Yunyun was not as excited as when she first entered the house.
He shrank his head and tightly pulled Liu Weicheng's trouser legs with his little hands, leaving only half of his fleshy little face exposed.
Secretly, he observed the two sisters.
As soon as Zhu Qinqin's bold statement came out, Li Shiyi immediately looked panicked, as if she wanted to explain but didn't know where to explain it.
Liu Weicheng, on the other hand, muttered helplessly.
"How could it be my child? She is already four or five years old. If it were really mine, I would have been a teenager when I had her."
"Isn't it my brother's?"
"Definitely not. What's going on in your head, you girl? And...how come you've learned how to complain now?"
"Oh...if it's not your child, forget it."
Zhu Qinqin, who was shocked one second, regained his composure the next second.
After learning that Yunyun was not her cousin's child, she began to become a little curious. She was already lively in character and could be described in relatively easy-to-understand terms as a so-called social cow.
He stretched his head forward and took steps towards Yunyun who was huddled behind Liu Weicheng.
It was like the two were playing hide-and-seek, and in the end, Yunyun was caught.
Yunyun, who was huddled behind her, was dragged out by Zhu Qinqin. Perhaps because she realized that the young lady in front of her did not mean any harm, Yunyun's stage fright did not last long, and she began to accept her in less than two minutes.
the other party.
The two people, who are five years apart in age, are surprisingly able to talk to each other very well.
After a while, Yunyun, who was pestering Liu Weicheng, was abducted by Zhu Qinqin. After wandering around the living room for a while, she all went into Liu Weicheng's room.
"boom!"
With the sound of the bedroom door closing, the originally noisy living room suddenly became much quieter.
After a few seconds, Li Shiyi chuckled.
"It seems that we really came to the right place to bring her here. There are so many sisters to play with her."
"Have everything been arranged in the cafeteria?"
"Um."
He nodded in response.
As the students of No. 1 Middle School entered the winter vacation, the cafeteria was forced to stop operating. Li Shiyi, who is now the person in charge of the cafeteria, made some plans in place of Liu Weicheng.
"They all went back to their hometowns and came back to work after the Chinese New Year."
"As long as the arrangements are made, I'm relieved that the canteen is doing well now under your management. When will you go back to your hometown for the New Year?"
"..."
The casual question in the second half of the sentence made Li Shiyi in front of her fall silent. She, who was still smiling at first, was stunned for a long time, and then she quietly spoke her mind.
"I won't go back this year."
A simple sentence reveals too much sadness.
Last year, 2006, was not a year worth remembering for Li Shiyi. The breakdown of her marriage in the first half of the year put her in endless shock as she struggled to make ends meet with her daughter.
Fortunately, after getting to know Liu Weicheng, the mess was solved with the help of him and Lin Nianwei.
Although it is not clear what the subsequent status of her ex-husband Wu Yong is, he has not appeared again until now, as if he suddenly disappeared from this world.
When a person suddenly disappears, there are not many possible scenarios to rule out.
Currently only Liu Weicheng knows the news that Wu Yong was admitted because of various criminal records.
And Li Shiyi still doesn’t know the real reason why her ex-husband hasn’t appeared for a long time.
It was just the breakdown of her marriage that made her homeless now.
This wrong marriage was completed at the suggestion of her parents, and when she had the idea of divorcing, the first thing she received was not support from her family, but advice to persuade her to live a good life.
Also because she was determined to get a divorce, her relationship with her family became increasingly tense.
This is also the reason why when she and Wu Yong were divorcing, none of her family members showed up.
In the eyes of her parents, a woman like her who doesn't live a good life and thinks about divorce is the so-called restless person.
Apart from asking her to be patient, I can't seem to think of any other better way to persuade people.
It was also because of this marriage that the relationship between Li Shiyi and her relatives at home was very tense. Because of this, she did not want to return to her hometown during the Spring Festival this year.
"This year, it's just Yunyun and I. We, mother and daughter, celebrate the New Year by ourselves."
A very sad-sounding sentence came out of Li Shiyi's mouth, but her face showed no sadness at all.
For Li Shiyi now, she has left Wu Yong and has a stable job.
