The children drank yogurt with their eyes glued to her magical hands.

"Sister-in-law, is this milk bad, why is it so sour?" Du Xuqing took a sip, his face wrinkled together, and asked distressedly.

Zuo Ranjia's hand was stunned, and she almost cut the half-cut window grille, she raised her eyebrows and looked at him, and asked strangely: "If you taste it carefully, isn't it delicious?" ”

Du Xuqing smashed his mouth, summoned up a lot of courage and took another sip, savored it carefully, and wondered: "Don't say it, it's delicious." ”

"You didn't see the word yogurt written on the bottle, which is made from fermented milk, which is more suitable for human absorption," Zuo Ranjia said disgustedly, with a terrible expression of being uneducated.

Du Xu's fair-skinned face was a little red, and he glanced at the two little ones drinking happily, knowing that he was making a fuss.

"Kiki, Yuanzi, Qingzi, what did you learn today?" Zuo Ranjia considered that reading at night would ruin his eyes, so he surrounded him with them.

Du Jinqi's eyes were shiny and she replied in a milky voice: "Sister-in-law, I can pronounce aoeiuü, and I can count 12345678910, well, there is ABCDEFG!" ”

When Zuo Ranjia heard it, hey, hey, I've learned a lot! "Our Qiqi is so smart, my sister-in-law rewarded you with a pair of head flowers," she said, turning around and taking out a pair of head flowers with tassel pompoms from the dresser drawer, and said with a smile: "You have started to study, and in the future, you will have to earn things through your own efforts, such as milk, yogurt, pastries, and fruits that you drink every day." ”

She looked at Du Xuyuan and raised her eyebrows.

Du Xuyuan hurriedly straightened his back, held the yogurt, and replied a little embarrassedly: "Sister-in-law, I learned the same as Qiqi," he said and recited the pinyin, numbers and seven English letters fluently, "But I will write it." ”

"Not bad," Zuo Ranjia nodded appreciatively, "Did your brother give you any homework?" ”

Du Xuyuan said seriously: "Yes, let's read what we have learned ten times with the tape, copy the copybook ten times, and write it ten times by ourselves." ”

"Yes, what you have to do is to listen carefully to your brother's lectures and complete your homework, which is the best reward for your brother." Zuo Ranjia thought about it, turned around and went to rummage in the mahogany cabinet at the end of the bed, and quietly bought a handful of colored glass pinballs from the plane mall, which were rich in patterns and colors, and were shining brightly under the light.

Du Xuyuan howled happily, and then said embarrassedly: "Sister-in-law, learning is our own business, in fact, you don't have to reward us." "If his eyes weren't glued to the glass pinball, the words would be more convincing.

Zuo Ranjia stuffed it into his hand with a smile and rubbed his hair: "Little fool, you can understand this truth, the knowledge is your own, and others can't snatch it." But if you learn something and you are rewarded, isn't it even more motivated? Without motivation, it's hard to keep going day in and day out. ”

Du Xuyuan nodded and promised: "Sister-in-law, I will study hard to earn food and play." ”

Zuo Ranjia is embarrassed, she won't teach the baby crookedly, right? She hurriedly said: "I'm just talking about playing, this is a reward, just like the certificate you received at the end of last semester, just to motivate you to study." ”

The three babies all said in unison that they knew.

Du Xuqing didn't wait for Zuo Ranjia to ask, and reported his study progress: "Sister-in-law, I made a planner before lunch and designed a class schedule for my younger brothers and sisters. In the afternoon, I read the first volume of primary school Chinese, memorized two ancient poems, and finished the first volume of mathematics. I also copied a copybook.

The content of elementary school is simple, so I read it quickly, it's not that I'm not serious. ”

"It's not bad, you have to be calm in your studies, and you can't be greedy for speed." Zuo Ranjia bent her eyebrows with satisfaction, turned around and continued to take a third-order six-color Rubik's Cube from the box. "You're older, you still need something to test your brainpower, oh, try playing this when you're fine, see how long it can be restored, and if you can find a certain pattern, shorten the recovery time to."

Du Xuqing took it curiously, fiddling with his hand and found that the square could be rotated horizontally or vertically, and it didn't take much to disrupt the neat color block, and he wanted to recover, but the more he dialed it, the more chaotic it became.

"Sister-in-law, what's this called?" He likes to stumble on one thing, which may be a kind of compulsion in most people's hearts, and it is undeniable that he has not yet found the pattern and already likes the Rubik's Cube.

"It's called the Rubik's Cube, and I heard from the salesperson that it was researched by a professor in XYL countries last year, and it's a kind of hand extreme sport. This is the most basic Rubik's Cube, a face of nine grids, known as the third-order Rubik's Cube, as long as you find a certain pattern, you can play all levels of the Rubik's Cube. Zuo Ranjia searched for the introduction of the Rubik's Cube with his plane mobile phone, and was ashamed to find that the Rubik's Cube had just come out.

Except for the head flower in Du Jinqi's hand, the three children envied each other's rewards, but they were reluctant to hold them.

"Brother, when you study, can you borrow me to play? My glass balls are also lent to you to play with. ”

"Okay, but my brother is older, so I don't play with your glass ball," Du Xuqing said seriously, before today, he was also envious of the boy who had a crystal clear glass ball in his hand, but from the beginning of making a study schedule, taking on the task of teaching younger siblings, and getting the Rubik's Cube that only older children play, he lost his interest in the pinball, hoop, slingshot, etc., which boys were keen on in the past, and completely defined himself as a big child.

Qi Qi also raised her hands and argued: "And me!" ”

Zuo Ranjia smiled and cut the window flowers, and the children drank the yogurt deliciously, fiddling with the things in their hands. "Qingzi, you took your Walkman, although you don't study at night, but use this time to listen to some songs to cultivate your sentiments. Don't let people show you your talents, you won't know anything. ”

Du Xuqing sighed, ran to his house with a cigarette, ran back with his Walkman, carefully put it on the table, plugged in the electricity and put it into the tape, which were some of Ms. Deng's classic songs in the early stage.

The familiar song with a strong atmosphere of the times came out of the loudspeaker of the small Walkman, wafting in the cozy room, and the children liked this melody very much when they first heard it, and they hummed along with it after a while.

"It's so lively, huh?" The door creaked open from the outside, and Du Xuze walked in with a cold air.

Zuo Ranjia and the four of them were stunned, their hearts were almost frightened, and they were really angry and scared when they looked at him, "How did you get in?" "They've bolted the door from the inside.

When Du Xuze heard this, his face was slightly calm and said: "I climbed the wall and jumped in, but in the future, you had better lock the door after inserting it from the inside at home, otherwise it is easy for someone with a heart to open the door with a knife from the outside." It's approaching the end of the year, and there are a lot of people coming from other places in Kyoto, so it's not far from the mouth of the alley, so be careful. ”

Zuo Ranjia nodded with a tense little face, "I know." ”

Du Xuze thought that he had to build some cement on the head of the courtyard wall and insert glass slag to make some thorns in the courtyard wall, well, go back and lead a dog over. has a beautiful daughter-in-law and three babies at home, and he is really not at ease if he goes far away.

Zuo Ranjia packed up her things and asked Du Xuqing to lead the three small ones to wash and sleep. I also wash my face and brush my teeth, and rub my skin care products in front of the dresser.

Du Xuze carried the basin to the kitchen to wash up, entered the door and plugged in the door bolt, his heart was beating happily, his dark eyes looked at the slender figure sitting in the bedroom, and the blood in his body boiled directly. He stepped over in two steps and hugged the person into his arms fiercely, "Daughter-in-law, I miss you so much." ”

Zuo Ranjia grabbed his hot hand, pursed her lips and smiled, her heart beating fast.

Du Xuze didn't say much, hugged his daughter-in-law and took it to the bed, eagerly looking for the vermilion, he endured so hard for a day. A rekindled fire became even more violent, directly burning Zuo Ranjia's mind blank, and helplessly clinging to him tightly.

As soon as the morning sun in winter appeared, there was already movement in the yard, Du Xu ran to the kitchen to wash up in a trembling manner, and trotted around the yard with a Walkman playing English in his pocket.

Zuo Ranjia opened her eyes in a daze, lazily leaning in Du Xuze's hot arms, she rubbed his strong chest comfortably, "I want to go to the scrap yard today to have a look, last time my godmother chose this set of furniture for us, I want to see if there are any other good things." ”

"Okay, yes, but you have to change your clothes so that no one can see it." Du Xuze didn't open his eyes and muttered, "Why don't you wait for me to come back at noon to accompany you?" ”

Zuo Ranjia shook her head, she wanted to see if there were any seal carving books, and by the way, before everyone realized their collection value, she could collect more, maybe the system would release relevant tasks in the future.

"You can drop me off at the scrapyard when you go to give a gift, and pick me up at noon."

"Okay, you should pay attention to your feet then, but don't fall and bump into them." Du Xuze tightened his arms and kissed her forehead lovingly.

Breakfast is Du Xuze's donkey meat roast and egg drop soup from the state-run restaurant, all say that the dragon meat in the sky and the donkey meat in the ground, the authentic donkey meat in Kyoto tastes really good, the skin of the fire is roasted and browned, and the meat inside is also fat and thin, and then it is accompanied by a refreshing and slightly spicy green pepper, and the egg flower washed with the soup simmered by the old hen, there is no doubt that the tongue and teeth have been greatly satisfied.

After eating, Zuo Ranjia briefly instructed Du Xuqing, asking him to watch the two of them study hard at home, make some milk and eat some pastries when they are tired, and put the window flowers that Sister-in-law Wang wants to take on the table in the cubicle.

She searched for a long time in the plane mall before buying a bloated dark cotton jacket and cotton pants worn by the elderly, and her face was wrapped in a blue cloth on her head, leaving only a pair of watery eyes.

No matter how Du Xuze looked, he still felt that his daughter-in-law's eyes were attractive, but he couldn't cover his eyes, so he could only shake his head and push the car out helplessly.
