In the blink of an eye, the Lantern Festival passed, and Aunt Guo and Da Zhuang came back.

Aunt Guo is fifty years old this year, Zhong Nanji understands her age, and adds a few servants to the family.

There are many servants at home, and Su Mian hardly lets her touch other tasks at home except for the occasional cooking.

Yu Miao teased her, "Do I have to call you a young grandmother in the future?"

Su Mian, "......"

Can she say that except for Da Zhuang and Aunt Guo who still call her Teacher Su as before, the rest of the family calls her Young Grandma?

This is called...... I'm not used to it.

She had protested to Zhong Nanjun in private, but he said that it was the rule and let her slowly get used to it.

As winter turns to spring, the weather warms up little by little, and the branches that have been sleeping for a whole winter sprout new shoots.

On this day, Su Mian came back from school with Zhong Yibai on the front foot, and Bai Yi'an on the back foot.

She hadn't been seen since the last time, and Su Mian thought she had left Beicheng.

This time, Bai Yi'an brought Zhong Yibai a gift as usual, a pair of limited-edition sneakers from a big brand.

"Yibai," Bai Yi'an sat on the sofa next to Zhong Yibai and took out the shoes in the box, "You can wear it and try it, see if the size is appropriate?"

Zhong Yibai couldn't bear to refuse her kindness, so he kicked off the small slippers on his feet and reached out to take the shoes.

It's just that you can't wear it in.

In the end, Zhong Yibai said helplessly, "It's small." ”

Bai Yi'an listened, and his face with exquisite makeup was full of apologies, "Yibai, I'm sorry, it's my mother's fault......"

Zhong Yibai couldn't stand her like this, so he hurriedly waved his little hand at her, "You're right, don't tell me I'm sorry." ”

Bai Yi'an's eyes were red, she reached over, grabbed Zhong Yibai's little hand, and held it tightly in her hand, so that Zhong Yibai couldn't pull it away.

"Yibai," Bai Yi'an ignored his struggles and resistance, tears streaming down his cheeks, "You really forgive your mother?"

Except for a few specific people, Zhong Yibai is very reluctant to have physical contact with others.

Even if the woman in front of him is his own mother.

His little hand was tightly held by her hand, Zhong Yibai not only didn't feel half warm, but felt extremely uncomfortable.

He didn't hear what Bai Yi'an meant by forgiveness, and he wanted to free his hand from her.

So, immediately shouted, "Forgive, forgive, you let me go." ”

Hearing Zhong Yibai's answer, the tears in Bai Yi'an's eyes immediately stopped.

She finally let go of the little hand she had been holding onto.

Zhong Yibai, who was freed, got up immediately, didn't even bother to put on his slippers, and ran to the second floor without looking back.

Pulling out a tissue, Bai Yi'an wiped his eyes, and the moment he threw the tissue into the trash can on the side, the corners of his lips raised slightly with a successful arc.

One step closer to success.

......

As soon as Su Mian changed his clothes, he saw Zhong Yibai rushing straight in.

"What's wrong?"

Zhong Yibai sat on the sofa next to him, with a little palpitation on his chubby little face.

"Susu, can you not let me face Bai ...... alone in the future My mom, I can't stand her anymore. ”

Su Mian took out the mobile phone in his bag and put it aside to charge, "What's wrong?"

"I cry at every turn, and I still reach out to touch my ......." Thinking of the feeling of Bai Yi'an's cold hands grasping his hand just now, Zhong Yibai couldn't help but shudder, "I don't like it anyway." ”

Su Mian charged his phone, turned around and walked over to him and sat down.

Tilted his head to look at him, his eyes were gentle, "You are her child, it is normal for her to want to be close to you." ”

"But what if I don't want to be close to her?"

"Take your time, don't rush, if you have any requirements for her, you can also tell her directly, she is your mother and will definitely consider your feelings. ”

Zhong Yibai listened and nodded obediently, "Okay." ”

Su Mian raised his hand and touched his little head, "Go do your homework, I'll go down and see her." ”

Zhong Yibai got up from the sofa and walked towards the door.

Su Mian found that he was barefoot, and hurriedly asked, "Yibai, why aren't you wearing slippers?"

Zhong Yibai scratched the back of his head with his hand embarrassedly, and whispered back to her, "I just ran too fast, I forgot to wear it." ”

Su Mian couldn't cry or laugh.

......

Su Mian went down to the first floor, there was no one in the living room, and she thought that Bai Yi'an had left.

So I asked Xiao Qin, who was cleaning on the side, Xiao Qin was a maid who had just come in not long ago, and she was a shy and hardworking girl in her twenties.

"Xiao Qin, is Miss Bai gone?"

Xiao Qin immediately stopped wiping and replied to her, "Back to young grandma, Miss Bai went to the kitchen to find Aunt Guo." ”

Su Mian remembered that Bai Yi'an had said that he wanted to learn how to cook from Aunt Guo, so he didn't go to her again, turned around and went upstairs.

As the principal of the kindergarten, Su Mian feels like a spinning top every day, and he can only rest for a while when he gets home.

Back on the second floor, she entered Zhong Nanji's study.

Zhong Nanshu disliked her books everywhere, so he bought her a bookshelf.

The ebony bookshelf, antique, was filled with her books, and there was a pot of golden cinnamon, and two pots of rattan that had grown old pothos.

Compared with the large bookshelf on Zhong Nanshu on the side, Su Mian's small bookshelf looks full of vitality and much more interesting.

Walking to the bookshelf, she found a new book that she had bought a few days ago, sat directly on the sofa next to her, kicked off her slippers, and then read the afterglow of the sunset outside the window.

This one forgets the time.

When she felt that the light was too dim and stood up to turn on the light, she looked up and found that it was already dark outside.

So, putting the book back for the summer vacation, Su Mian left the study and went downstairs.

As soon as I was halfway down the stairs, I heard Bai Yi'an's voice below, very sweet and delicate, completely different from the tone when she spoke.

Su Mian's heart tightened, and he thought of a possibility.

Sure enough, in the next second, she heard Zhong Nanji's deep voice.

She hurriedly went downstairs, through the living room, and towards the entrance.

Next to the hanger in the entrance, Zhong Nanshu was taking off his coat, Bai Yi'an was standing in front of him, looking up at him, and saying in his mouth, "Second brother, I'll help you take it off." ”

Zhong Nanshu refused with a faint expression, "No." ”

Perhaps sensing something, Zhong Nanshu raised his eyes and looked in the direction of Su Mian.

The two looked at each other, and before Su Mian could react, he suddenly heard him say to her, "Come here." ”

Su Mian raised his feet and walked over, and when she got closer, Zhong Nanqi handed over the coat he had taken off.

Su Mian naturally reached out to take the hanger, then stepped forward, approached Zhong Nanji, and raised his hand to untie the tie at his neckline.

After being together for a long time, Su Mian has learned to tie and untie for him very skillfully.

The slender white hands skillfully untied his tie for him, and then hung it on the hanger.

While Su Mian was doing all this for Zhong Nanji, Bai Yi'an stood aside, the expression on his delicate face was unpredictable, and finally pursed the corners of his lips without saying a word.

After getting all this done, Zhong Nanshu reached out and grabbed Su Mian's waist and led her towards the house.

If this was left in normal times, Su Mian would naturally not feel anything.

It's just a waist, and it's still at home, and there's nothing.

But at this moment, there is still a person behind him.

If this person were someone else, it would be fine, but she was Bai Yi'an.

Su Mian immediately stretched out his hand, took Zhong Nanji's hand down, turned around before Zhong Nanshu expressed his dissatisfaction, looked at Bai Yi'an, who was still standing in place, and said with a smile, "Miss Bai, do you want to stay and have a meal together?"

Su Mian is hospitable!

But it doesn't mean that she wants to leave Yi'an in vain.

It's just that the food in the restaurant has already been served, and if she is allowed to leave at this time, will it be too unkind?

Su Mian is a thin-skinned person, and he can't do anything to drive people away, so naturally he can only open his mouth to keep guests.

Standing in place, Bai Yi'an, who was originally in a dilemma and looked embarrassed, immediately agreed when she heard her words, "Okay, I just watched Aunt Guo cook a few dishes, her cooking skills are really good." ”

Su Mian, "......"

What else could she say.

......

Zhong Nanshu went upstairs to change clothes, and Su Mian took Bai Yi'an to the restaurant first.

As soon as he sat down, Zhong Yibai came in.

As soon as he saw Bai Yi'an sitting at the dining table, he was so frightened that he immediately sat next to Su Mian.

At this moment, Bai Yi'an was not in the mood to get close to him, and he had been thinking about Zhong Nanji in his heart.

Thinking of his attitude towards her just now, he was as cold as ever, but what made her still hopeful was that when Su Mian left her to eat together, Zhong Nanshu did not speak out against it.

Does this mean that he doesn't dislike her as much as he seems in his heart?

Or maybe it was because Su Mian was there, so he deliberately put on a very cold look towards her.

Thinking of this, Bai Yi's head was a little more joyful.

So when Zhong Nanji walked into the restaurant, she looked at him with undisguised admiration and affection in her eyes.

Su Mian, who was on the other side, couldn't help frowning.

A meal made her heart a little blocked.

Although Zhong Nanshu had an indifferent face throughout the whole process, Bai Yi'an was uninteresting, didn't eat a few bites, and kept talking about the two when they were young.

Su Mian didn't know anything about the two of them when they were children, so he naturally couldn't interject.

had to be silent throughout the whole process, without saying a word.

It's just that the food she ate seemed to be blocked in her throat all the time, so she had to leave the table early and go straight upstairs.

She tasted the taste of lifting a stone and shooting herself in the foot.

She went upstairs with her front feet, and Zhong Yibai followed with her back feet.

Su Mian nestled in the sofa and took a book to cover her face, not wanting the little guy to see that she was unhappy.

Zhong Yibai came in, and she also kicked off the small slippers on her feet and sat cross-legged beside her.

Seeing her cover her face with a book, Zhong Yi's eyes were quick and he took off the book on her face, Su Mian didn't have time to retract the unhappy expression on his face, his face was tense, and his mouth was pouting.

expression, very depressed, irritable.
