Chapter 119: Just Kidding You
When Ji Xincheng said this, he was very calm.
Shu Yan looked at Ji Xincheng from the rearview mirror, and wanted to accompany her more, so he promised to go to Tang Tang's house first.
"It won't bother them, will it?"
"No, don't worry."
Ji Xincheng took Shu Yan's mother and son to Tang Tang's house, and then settled down in the living room, and Tang Tang and Xu Mo's father and son also arrived home.
"Wow, who's this?"
Tang Tang saw Shu Yan for the first time, and her hearty personality took the lead in speaking out, praising Shu Yan for her good looks, not at all like she had just given birth to a child. Shu Yanyuan was also worried that he would disturb his master, and seeing Tang Tang's such a character, he was obviously relieved.
Shu Yan hugged the child and got up to say hello, Tang Tang hurriedly asked her to sit, "You're welcome, can I hug him?" ”
Tang Tang washed his hands, took her son from Shu Yan's arms, and immediately greeted Xu Tong:
"Xiao Tong, come on, see how cute this brother is!"
Xu Tong didn't let go of Xu Mo's hand, a little hesitant, seeing Xu Mo encouraging him, he took Xu Mo's hand and stepped forward, standing beside Tang Tang and looking at the little baby in her arms.
"Dad, how do you know he's a little brother, not a little sister?"
It was rare for him to say a question with inquiry, Xu Mo and Tang Tang were very surprised, they glanced at each other, Xu Mo smiled: "Because he is a boy like you." ”
Xu Mo's answer, which was not called an answer, attracted Tang Tang's laughter.
"I'm right, or you're going to tell him?"
Xu Mo stood behind Xu Tong and looked down at Tang Tang's eyes, which were full of overflowing tenderness.
Shu Yan looked at this family, very envious, and said with a smile: "Your son is so cute, how old is he?" ”
Tang Tang was unconsciously immersed in Xu Mo's affectionate gaze, and suddenly heard Shu Yan's words, and hurriedly lowered his head. Such a Tang Tang made Ji Xincheng surprised, and she hurriedly stood up and introduced it to a few people:
"Shu Yan, this is the Tang Tang I told you. Tang, this is Shu Yan. This is Xu Mo, Xu Mo's son Xu Tong, who is five years old. ”
Ji Xincheng gave a brief introduction, and Shu Yan knew that he had misunderstood, blushing, and didn't know whether to apologize.
Xu Mo obviously saw Shu Yan's embarrassment, and he naturally felt that he didn't need to apologize for Shu Yan's misunderstanding, so he got up and took out a business card from his bag and handed it to Shu Yan, saying, "Hello Miss Shu, Tang Tang's friend is my friend, if you need anything in the future, you can come to me at any time." ”
For Xu Mo's rare initiative to show goodwill, Ji Xincheng and Tang Tang's eyes fell on him with doubts.
Ji Xincheng was just thinking that there was such a big commotion at An Zimo's birthday banquet at that time, and he wanted Xu Mo to know who Shu Yan was, so he wanted to help her in this way?
And Tang Tang somewhat understood that Xu Mo intended to make the people and friends around her feel that he had something to do with her.
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Xu!"
Shu Yan naturally didn't know what Ji Xincheng and Tang Tang thought, she was very envious of the way Xu Mo's father and son got along with Tang Tang, and she was also very grateful for meeting such a kind friend as Ji Xincheng and Tang Tang.
Ji Xincheng turned his playful gaze to Tang Tang, who quickly accepted it, and urged Xu Mo to leave in shame:
"Don't you have something to go back to?"
Xu Mo smiled slightly, squatted down and said goodbye to his son, "Xiao Tong has to listen to his mother obediently, huh?" ”
"I know, Daddy!"
Xu Mo's smiling eyes affirmed his son, and then fell on Tang Tang.
Tang Tang couldn't make any moves while holding Shu Yan's son, so he could only glare at him dryly, "Let's go, what are you waiting for?" ”
Hearing that she was really annoyed, the corners of Xu Mo's lips became deeper, as if she wanted to raise her hand to stroke the top of her hair, but in the end she endured it, and after saying goodbye to Shu Yan and Ji Xincheng, she left Tang Tang's house.
As soon as the door closed, Ji Xincheng said bluntly:
"Why did your mother call you?"
Shu Yan was also surprised, looking at Tang Tang, Tang Tang was blushed by the two of them, and it was difficult to explain in front of Xu Tong, so he had to say: "He is joking, don't take it seriously!" ”
Ji Xincheng knew that the reason was probably related to Xu Tong's condition, so he didn't dig into it in front of the child.
But he didn't plan to let Tang Tang go, "Xu Mo only jokes with you, you see how serious he usually treats people!" The first time we met, they treated me like a human trafficker and wanted to arrest me. ”
Ji Xincheng talked to Shu Yan about the first meeting in the playground.
Tang Tang blushed because of Ji Xincheng's meaning, and only went to prepare dinner, returned Shu Yan's son, and hurriedly hid in the kitchen.
After leaving behind, Ji Xincheng and Shu Yan smiled knowingly.
"Mr. Xu looks very steady." Shu Yan said.
"Yes, Tang's temperament is a little anxious, but I see that she is very good at talking in front of Xu Mo."
Both of them looked forward to the appearance of Xu Mo and Tang Tang together, and they didn't feel inappropriate, so their eyes couldn't help but fall back to Xu Tong.
Xu Tong still doesn't like to talk in front of the living.
Ji Xincheng saw her close to him, but his eyes went to Shu Yan's arms from time to time.
Thinking that he was interested in the baby, I asked him:
"Do you want to hug your brother?"
Xu Tong's eyes widened, looked at Ji Xincheng, and then nodded invisibly.
Shu Yan put his son in Xu Tong's hands, and with the help of Ji Xincheng, Xu Tong sat on the sofa, holding the soft little baby, staring at him in surprise for a long time, and then looked up and smiled at Ji Xincheng.
Ji Xincheng thought of the first time he saw Xu Tong, he must have been very lonely at that time, right?
couldn't help but feel pity, stroked the top of Xu Tong's hair, and encouraged him: "If you like your brother's words, you can talk to him, although he won't answer you now, he can understand." ”
"Really?" Xu Tong raised his head and asked Ji Xincheng.
Ji Xincheng nodded seriously.
Shu Yan didn't know that Xu Tong had autism, but the child was a little introverted, and he was very patient to guide him, how to interact with his younger brother, and his younger brother could laugh. Under the guidance of Shu Yan, the baby grinned in Xu Tong's arms.
Xu Tong's big black and white eyes were shining, and he looked up at Ji Xincheng happily.
Ji Xincheng affirmed him, "It seems that my brother likes Brother Xiao Tong very much." ”
"Will he call me brother?"
"When he learns to speak, I'll teach him to call it to you, how about it?" Shu Yan said.
"Good!"
Xu Tong turned his head sideways to look at Shu Yan for the first time.
Obviously, in his eyes at this time, Shu Yan no longer belongs to the category of strangers in his heart.
When Ji Xincheng saw this, he intended to let Xu Tong stay with Shu Yan's mother and son, so he said to Shu Yan: "I'll go to the kitchen to help, you look at the two of them?" ”
"Okay, there you go!"
Ji Xincheng came to the kitchen and talked to Tang Tang about Xu Tong's changes.
"It seems that his acceptance cycle of strangers has been shortened."
Ji Xincheng said, Tang Tang had talked to her about Xu Tong's rehabilitation treatment before, and after Xu Tong opened his mouth, the task at this stage was for him to break the psychological barriers and accept new people and things.
Although Tang Tang was also happy, his eyes were full of worry.
"But he can only do this in a familiar environment, and the doctor says it's not necessarily a good thing."
"Why?"
"This familiar environment is another siege he has created for himself, and even if he reacts quickly and quickly like a normal child in this siege, once he gets out of this siege, he may even behave worse than before."
Tang Tang sighed and said, "And his current siege seems to be only possible with me, and his father, grandparents have tried, but they can't do it." ”
Ji Xincheng looked at Tang Tang with a sad face, knowing that this was a serious matter.
"So, does this have anything to do with Xu Mo asking him to call you mom?"
"It was the psychiatrist who suggested it."
Tang Tang put the prepared ingredients into the soup pot, covered the lid, adjusted the temperature, and then turned to the cooking table and told Ji Xincheng about the cause of Xu Tong.
Xu Tong's illness was due to a car accident two years ago when his mother took him out to play. His mom was driving, a big truck drunk drove into them, and in order to protect her son, his mom died in front of him. At that time, Xu Tong was more than three years old, and he was already very sensible, and he witnessed his mother die on the spot, and he was mentally traumatized, and then he got autism. ”
Ji Xin stopped when he was washing vegetables, "So that's the case, no wonder this kid is so sick." ”
The two were silent for a moment, probably thinking about Xu Tong's mother, who had never met.
They don't know much about Xu Tong's mother, but looking at Xu Mo and Xu Tong's personality, she must be a very good woman, but she is a little blessed.
Ji Xincheng looked at the sadness in Tang Tang's eyes when he talked about this, and suddenly understood that Xu Mo for Tang Tang may no longer be just Xu Tong's father, so simple.
She tentatively spoke:
"Fate is also wonderful, so many people and so many places, but Xu Tong can see you in the playground, which shows that you are still very fateful. Although Xu Mo is married and has a son, I think he is quite reliable, at least more reliable than Gu Shaoze, Tang, do you want to try, think about it? ”
Tang Tang turned around to look at the fire, Ji Xincheng couldn't see her expression, and only listened to her for a while:
"I've seen his phone screensaver, Xu Tong's mother...... We look a little alike. It should be said that it is quite similar, so Xu Tong's reaction at that time was so intense, and it was not the same clothes that Xu Mo said. ”
Ji Xincheng was shocked by this.
First of all, Xu Mo is indeed special to Tang Tang, otherwise she would definitely refute Ji Xincheng's proposal on the spot.
Secondly, Xu Mo still uses the photo of his late wife as a screensaver, which seems to be more likely to be unforgettable.
What worries Ji Xincheng the most is also Tang Tang's worry, if Xu Mo and Xu Tong are both because Tang Tang looks similar to his deceased relatives, is it possible that Xu Mo may also use Tang Tang as a stand-in?
That's why it's so good to Tang Tang?
Thinking of this, Ji Xincheng couldn't help but feel sad for Tang Tang.
"I don't want to be anyone's stand-in, and when Xu Tong recovers a little, I won't be involved with them anymore."
After Tang Tang said this, he turned around, as if he had spit out the words in his heart, and his mood was a little happier.
Ji Xincheng wiped his hands, walked over and hugged Tang Tang, "I'm sorry, I used to make fun of you before." ”
"You're doing it for my good, I know."
Although Tang Tang smiled, that expression made Ji Xincheng more uncomfortable than not smiling.
It seemed that in order to soothe Ji Xincheng, Tang Tang said again: "No matter what, it's good to experience the feeling of being a mother once!" I don't lose at all! ”
Seeing that Ji Xincheng seemed to be about to cry, Tang Tang hurriedly said: "Hey, what kind of expression do you have, like I'm going to die!" ”
"Don't talk nonsense!" Ji Shicheng blinked and pushed her away.
"Then why did the doctor ask him to call your mother?" Ji Xincheng asked.
"Saying that it will help him build his little siege more quickly, or at least in a way, it will be a boost."
The two chatted about Xu Tong's treatment plan in the kitchen, and when the three dishes and one soup were served, they were stunned when they arrived in the living room.
Shu Yan was playing a game with Xu Tong, and her son was already sleeping quietly on the side.
Seeing Ji Xincheng and Tang Tang coming out, Shu Yan smiled and said:
"I didn't expect children's games to be so fun!"
Tang Tang walked to Xu Tong's side in surprise, looked at the big screen, and asked Xu Tong, "Did you open it yourself?" ”
Xu Tong nodded.
Tang Tang asked again: "I still don't know how to play this game, did you also teach Aunt Shuyan?" ”
Xu Tong nodded again.
Tang Tang was a little excited, and kissed him heavily on the forehead, like a mother who loved him, "Our little Tong baby is really amazing!" It's a little teacher! ”
When Xu Tong heard this, he laughed.
Tang Tang's encouragement obviously helped Xu Tong a lot, and after that, in the conversation of the adults, although he didn't make a sound, no matter who spoke, he would quickly capture that person's expression, and when he heard something funny, he would laugh along.
It looks like a normal child.
After the meal, Ji Xincheng sent Shuyan's mother and son home, Xu Tong was a little reluctant to let his younger brother go, and asked Tang Tang: "I like my little brother, can my mother also give birth to my father?" ”
Fortunately, Ji Xincheng and Shu Yan had already gone out at that time, Tang Tang blushed and didn't dare to respond.
After a while, he said, "This, let's talk about it later?" ”
She couldn't bear to disappoint Xu Tong, but she didn't dare to give herself hope......
Tang Tang fell into contradictions, when Ji Xincheng returned home more than an hour later, when he saw Tang Tang's rare negative emotions in front of Xu Tong, he sensed that something was wrong and wanted to talk to her.
But Tang Tang went into the bathroom on the pretext of washing, and Ji Xincheng had to play games with Xu Tong.
Qiu Shang's phone came in at a time that was neither early nor late, Ji Xincheng quickly picked it up, and listened to him: "Do you have time tomorrow to have a meal together?" ”
