Chapter 611: Reading Time Before Bedtime (4/4, For I Want 003's Ten Thousand Rewards)
"Mama, let me tell you! There are a lot of people in the bookstore, and then they all sit on the floor and read, but, but, ...... I think the floor is dirty......" As soon as she returned, Xixi couldn't wait to tell her mother about what she had seen in the bookstore.
Everything seems to be very novel, whether it is those strange patterns, or those little brothers and sisters who are reading books, for Xixi, it is worth sharing with her mother.
Murphy listened patiently before he smiled and said, "Show it to your mother, what books have you bought?"
Now nine months pregnant, Murphy is only one step away from giving birth, and her belly is getting bigger and bigger, and she feels a little uncomfortable to sit, and occasionally has to get up and walk, but not for too long, the heavy burden will exacerbate the soreness in her waist and legs.
Not only that, but having a big belly can also cause the stomach to be easily full, so Murphy can't eat much at a time now, and in order to ensure adequate nutrition, she has to eat many times like a baby.
So, after coming back, Yang Yi went to the kitchen and cooked some fresh and delicious porridge for Murphy to eat.
Hearing her mother say that she wanted to read the books she bought, the little girl was full of energy, turned around and ran to the shoe cabinet, stood on tiptoe, and took down the bag that her father had put on it.
Then, she staggered over and smiled happily: "Ma Ma, you see, this is the book I bought with Baba." ”
Murphy took the book out, a local look.
Xixi climbed onto the sofa, she knelt on the side with great interest, supported with one hand, stretched over with the other, pointed to the book in her mother's hand and said, "Ma Ma, this is the book I like to read, and then this is the one that Baba bought, and these two, or my name! ”
"Ma Ma knows, these two are storybooks written by you, very good, but I don't know if Lu Weisha can read and understand Chinese." Murphy couldn't help but laugh.
……
The mother and daughter chatted passionately in the living room, and Yang Yi cooked porridge for Murphy in the kitchen, but he received a call from Yang Qing.
Yang Qing called so late, it was not bad news, but the good news that Yang Yi had been looking forward to for a long time - Yang Chonggui finally agreed to come to Jiangcheng to live for a while!
Yang Yi actually always had the idea of bringing the second elder to the city to enjoy happiness, but Yang Chonggui was unwilling to "go out of the mountain", and even Yang Huan was admitted to university, he did not come to send Yang Huan to school.
Although the old man said that he didn't want to leave his hometown because he was old, Yang Yi actually vaguely guessed his father's thoughts. He may be worried that if he goes to the city, his identity will be exposed and his family will be in trouble.
But how?
Decades have passed, not to mention that domestic security is like a dripping iron bucket, let's just say that those enemies abroad are estimated to be dead, and the old ones can't walk, how can they come to China to find people?
Besides, who would have known that Yang Chonggui would come to Jiangcheng? Who would have known that a white-haired old man was the great demon who was making trouble on the devil's territory back then?
But Yang Chonggui didn't want to come, Yang Yi didn't have a choice, the old man didn't want to come, and his mother wouldn't come. Dong Yue'e said: "I'm going to the city, who will take care of him?"
This grinding lasted for more than half a year, and finally, with the excuse that the second grandson or granddaughter was about to be born, Yang Yi finally relieved Yang Chonggui - the day before yesterday, Yang Yi called Yang Chonggui and said, "Don't you want to hug your grandson who is about to be born?"
Yang Chonggui agreed to come over, and Dong Yue'e would naturally follow, but Yang Yi couldn't say how long they could live in the city.
Yang Qing called to tell Yang Yi the news that the old man had changed his mind.
"I guess it won't be until tomorrow, and tomorrow I have to go to the county to buy train tickets for my dad and mom. Yang Qing said to Yang Yi.
"No, buy four train tickets. They came on their own, and I was not at ease. It just so happens that you and Shuyi can also come to our place to play and see Huanhuan's school. Yang Yi couldn't help but say.
Although it is said that Yang Chonggui traveled the world in his early years and also had the experience of breaking into the world, after all, the times are different, and Yang Chonggui's experience may not be able to be used in the complex modern society.
It just so happened that now in winter, it was not the time to be busy with farming, so Yang Yi simply asked his family to come to the city for a gathering.
……
At night, Murphy went to bed early, and Yang Yi first massaged her legs and waist to relieve her body aches, and she could also use massage to relieve Murphy's anxiety due to her big belly and restlessness.
But Murphy was still a little flustered, because she knew that her mother-in-law and father-in-law were coming, and when Yang Yi gave her a massage, she couldn't help but say: "Mom and Dad are coming, we have to clean up, I saw it yesterday, it seems that the room is empty, it doesn't look good, you have to add some household appliances." I also have to buy clothes for my parents, my father likes to drink tea, and the tea leaves at home are not good enough, so you see if you should buy a little. Yang Qing and the two of them also have to ......"
"Hey, I can't help my mom cook now, I don't know if my mom will blame me......" Murphy is still as nervous as the new daughter-in-law.
Yang Yi had no choice but to interrupt her and said with a smile: "Okay, they are just coming over to play, don't be so nervous." Besides, you are pregnant now, you are the biggest, my mother is here, how can I be willing to let you work?"
"That being said, they are elders after all. Murphy smiled.
After the massage, let Murphy rest by himself, and Yang Yi went next door to accompany his daughter.
Although Dad didn't tell stories before going to bed today, and instead read books with Xixi, the little girl still climbed into bed early with a strong interest, holding a book and waiting for Dad.
"What are you watching today?" or "The Adventures of Little Fish" or "Pug Clown"?" Yang Yi couldn't help but smile when he saw the little girl spread out the five books on the bed like setting up a stall.
"Look at this, puppy!" Xixi hesitated for a while, and finally chose "Pug Clown".
Yang Yi lifted the quilt and sat on the bed, picked up a pillow and put it behind him.
The little girl in pajamas and pajamas crawled over quickly, she naughtily turned around on the bed, pressed on the quilt, and then lifted her small and delicate feet, looking at her father with big eyes and a smile, as if her father did not reprimand her, she would not obediently get into the quilt.
"Come, sit here, you can't lie down and read. Yang Yi patted his side.
Still wanted to read, Xixi had to turn over and sit beside his father obediently, Yang Yi reached out to pull over the quilt and covered him and Xixi's legs.
The little girl leaned back, snuggled into her father's arms, found a comfortable position, and took one of her father's big hands so that he could hold herself.
This feeling is very warm and very secure, and Xixi finds it much more interesting than lying in bed and listening to her father tell a story on the side.
"Come, let's read the book together, let's start reading from the first page!" Yang Yi opened "Pug Clown" and put it slightly diagonally on his lap.
"Baba, I don't think pugs look good as buns. Looking at the pug that had just arrived at the house on the first page, the little girl twisted in her father's arms, turned her head and said to her father.
"Because they have different breeds, they also look different! However, it is precisely because it is not good-looking that everyone calls it a clown, not a clown who can play magic, but a clown who is weird. Yang Yi explained, "However, you can't call it ugly, you can't call it ugly, you can't say other puppies, or say that other people are ugly! Because you will make others sad like this, this little pug will be said to cry by everyone, you see." ”
"It's not right to do that. The little girl seemed to understand, and she nodded her little head and followed her father's words.
"That's right!" Yang Yi smiled with satisfaction, and he also gently touched Xixi's soft long hair with his left hand, "The words on it say: The owner brought a new pet little pug home, but the little pug was not popular, and the parrot flew in, saying that you are so ugly, you are so ugly!"
"Poor clown!" the little girl did not wriggle any longer, her eyes glued to the book, and she muttered worriedly.
The first page is as simple as that, and the second page is similar, with several pages in a row, all of which are about how the little pug was ridiculed by his friends and finally called a clown.
Yang Yi took Xixi to look at it slowly, and also introduced her to the animals in it, and talked about the common sense of those animals. For example, a parrot with colorful feathers can learn to speak, a small squirrel with a big tail likes to eat hard, and so on...... Regarding the content outside the book, it seems that Yang Yi said more!
But Xixi still listened with relish, and asked her father her own questions from time to time, just like Yang Yi used to tell her stories.
After reading the book for more than half an hour, I only read seven or eight pages, but the little girl was so sleepy that she began to fight with her eyelids. Of course, if Yang Yi didn't stop shouting, Xixi would still see herself asleep, because she was already addicted to the story of the pug clown.
"Sleep, let's continue to watch it tomorrow night, okay?" Yang Yi gently held up the little girl who had begun to doze off, let her lie down on the bed, and said softly.
Xi Xi put on the pillow, closed her eyes, and her long eyelashes closed. Listening to her father's words, she muttered in a daze, almost subconsciously: "Hmm......"
"Sleep!" Yang Yi kissed the little girl on the forehead and turned off the light in the room.
