Chapter 104: I'll take care of them with you
"Why are you here?" Xiao Yiran's surprise was no less than Lu Chuxi's. When I opened the door at first glance and saw my wife and daughter at home, I was surprised and full of joy.
"Yiyi is not suitable for ......" Before Lu Chuxi finished speaking, Xiao Yiyi, who was tightly hugged by her in her arms, was obviously frightened by the two screams of her parents, and instinctively cried with her mouth closed.
Xiao Yiran saw it and was distressed to death. first took off his cold coat, and then immediately took over his daughter, coaxing his liver carefully.
Don't forget to take out the thick stack of red envelopes and tell Xiao Yiyi that this is the New Year's money that the elders gave her and her mother, and wish Xiao Yiyi and her mother a happy and happy New Year.
Xiao Yiyi was familiar with his father's breath, and quickly stopped crying and played with a red envelope. In the end, I got tired of playing, found a comfortable position in my father's arms, and fell asleep.
Xiao Yiran carefully put her daughter on the small bed next to her, and the two of them had time to talk about why you are here.
"And what are you going to eat tonight?" Hearing that she would be back in the afternoon, Xiao Yiran asked with concern.
"I ate a lot at noon, and I also had afternoon tea, and I was not hungry." Xiao Yiran didn't mention it, Lu Chuxi really didn't feel hungry. She took care of Xiao Yiyi alone, and she didn't dare to leave her daughter's sight to cook. And for the Chinese New Year, the takeaway is basically closed. Fortunately, there are a lot of snacks and fruits at home, which are enough for her to fill her stomach.
When Xiao Yiran heard this, he suddenly felt distressed. When he was having a reunion dinner with his family, she couldn't even take care of her daughter because she had to take care of her.
"I'll go to the kitchen to see what's going on and cook for you." Xiao Yiran got up from the sofa and was about to go to the kitchen.
Lu Chuxi was very moved when he heard him say that he wanted to cook for himself. Thinking of something, she took the initiative to speak: "Help me cook a noodle and a poached egg." ”
Xiao Yiran, who went to the kitchen, thought to herself, I had to cook more food for her.
However, it is difficult for the clever woman to cook without rice, and in addition to shrimp and eggs, there is still a little breakfast in the refrigerator, and there are no extra materials. I think it's because I'm not at home, so Sister-in-law Yang emptied the refrigerator.
In the end, Xiao Yiran could only make a bowl of fragrant shrimp noodles, plus a few beef balls and a brightly colored poached egg.
He was busy in the kitchen, while Lu Chuxi was watching his sleeping daughter in the living room.
Secretly taking advantage of his inattention, she came to the kitchen door and secretly photographed his back in front of the cooking table.
After filming, I was afraid that he would find out, so I hurried back to the living room and played with my mobile phone on the sofa. My heart is full of too many emotions.
During the Chinese New Year, being able to see him has made her heart surge. At the moment, he was cooking dinner for himself in the kitchen, which made her even more excited.
After a while, Xiao Yiran came out and said apologetically: "I don't have any ingredients at home, so I can only simply make you a bowl of noodles." Go eat it. ”
"Thank you. It's already pretty good! Lu Chuxi walked to the restaurant satisfied.
Xiao Yiran thought to herself, for the New Year, other people's homes are rich Chinese New Year's Eve dinners, but in order to take her daughter, she missed the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and she could only eat simple noodles here alone.
Especially when he saw her facing the bowl of noodles, not only did she not dislike it, but she also showed joy and took a photo happily, he was even more pitied by Lu Chuxi's contentment.
Can't bear to see her eating Chinese New Year's Eve dinner alone, Xiao Yiran gently pushed her daughter's small cart up, took a glass of warm water, and walked to the living room.
Lu Chuxi, who was enjoying the food alone, heard the footsteps and looked up to see that the person she loved the most pushed her sleeping daughter to her. She couldn't help but smile brightly and said, "Thank you, the noodles are delicious." ”
Xiao Yiran didn't say anything, first gently pushed away the chair and sat next to her, then raised the cup in his hand, touched the freshly squeezed juice in front of Lu Chuxi, and whispered: "Happy New Year, Mom." ”
"Happy New Year, Yiyi Dad!" Lu Chuxi saluted back, then picked up the juice that Xiao Yiran had freshly squeezed for her and took a sip happily.
The two of them chatted casually like an old husband and wife. When he knew that Lu Chuxi didn't plan to let Sister-in-law Yang come back from early vacation and wanted to challenge one person to bring one by one for a week, Xiao Yiran didn't think about it, and blurted out: "I'll accompany you, and you will take one by one alone, it's inconvenient." ”
"Uh, aren't you busy? The Spring Festival is a time to visit relatives and friends. Lu Chuxi grew up in an orphanage since she was a child, and the Spring Festival is like this for her.
But if you don't have to pay New Year's greetings, it doesn't mean that others don't have to pay New Year's greetings. Especially for a family like Xiao Yiran, who has a big business, it is impossible to hide and not see guests during the Spring Festival, right?
Lu Chuxi, who is thriving in the shopping mall, naturally knows how heavy the responsibilities and burdens of Xiao Yiran are as the prince of the Xiao family. I also understand that the Spring Festival is actually a good time for everyone to move around and connect with partners. Even if Xiao Yiran doesn't go to people to pay New Year's greetings, there will always be people who take the initiative to come to the door to pay New Year's greetings.
"It's okay, there are two gatherings on the third and fifth days of junior high school, and I can't push them off. Everything else can be pushed. Compared to her, what is he sacrificing this little time to socialize? 's daughter is also his daughter, and he can't just ask Lu Chuxi to pay for his daughter. He also has to show his love for his daughter with practical actions.
He said so, and Lu Chuxi naturally would not refuse. It's too late to be happy. So Lu Chuxi nodded and said okay. I thought that tomorrow I would go to the market to buy some ingredients, and it would be time for her to show off her cooking skills.
After eating the noodles, Lu Chuxi was about to wash the dishes, but was intercepted by Xiao Yiran halfway and said, "I'll come, you can take a rest." ”
Then Xiao Shao took the dishes and chopsticks that Lu Chuxi had eaten, and went to the kitchen to wash the dishes. Lu Chuxi was left alone in the restaurant and giggled alone.
Whether it is Lu Chuxi or Xiao Yiran, they all feel that the atmosphere tonight is really good.
Xiao Yiran thought while washing the dishes that this was the first time Lu Chuxi had been so defenseless with him since he was out of confinement. This feeling is actually quite good. He suddenly looked forward to the coming week, the days when the family of three would be alone.
Just as Lu Chuxi's heart was blooming, her mobile phone rang.
Glancing at the caller ID, an unfamiliar number from N City.
Lu Chuxi didn't want to answer it, but her phone was leaked, and there were often harassing calls. However, the other party was reluctant, and in the end, she was afraid of arguing with her daughter, so she had to answer the phone.
"Hey! Hello! As soon as I said hello, a gentle male voice came from the other end of the phone, whispering: "Happy birthday, Nian Nian!" ”
"You are?" Lu Chuxi couldn't remember whose voice it was for a while. But the other party called her Nian Nian and sent her birthday wishes. Obviously, the other party is an old person, and she will know her previous nickname and her birthday.
