(42) Warm-hearted
For several days in a row, Li Xiaocan could see Jiang Bao in the living room at around four o'clock, either doing homework, playing with toys, or sleeping. There is still an hour to get off work, and there is generally nothing particularly urgent, so everyone just packs up their things, chats, drinks tea, and waits for the end of work. Sister Wang is more easy-going, has a weak personality, and has good popularity, so everyone turned a blind eye to her for bringing the child here for several days in a row. The child herself is also well-behaved, the aunt and uncle screamed, and everyone played with her for a while when they were free.
After going back and forth, Li Xiaocan and Jiang Bao got acquainted. Li Xiaocan transferred his thoughts about his son to Jiang Bao.
One day, Jiang Bao said to Li Xiaocan mysteriously: "Auntie, I want to give you a gift." ”
Li Xiaocan looked at Jiang Bao: "Jiang Bao, you are becoming more and more sensible, and it is not a holiday, why are you giving me a gift?" ”
Jiang Bao hid his hands behind his back and blinked his eyes: "Auntie, I like you, so I give you a gift, do you want to see it?" Li Xiaocan was amused by Jiang Bao and tried his best to cooperate with her: "Of course I want to see it, Auntie guess, a caterpillar, right?" ”
Jiang Bao smiled sweetly and shook his head like a rattle: "That's not right! Wrong! Jiang Bao doesn't like caterpillars. ”
"It must be a little flower." Li Xiaocan guessed seriously. Jiang Bao pouted and shook his head: "No, Auntie, guess!" ”
Li Xiaocan guessed wrong, raised his hands to make a surrender form, and said with a smile: "Jiang Bao, Auntie can't guess, Auntie surrenders, what kind of gift?" ”
Jiang Bao took out his hands, handed Li Xiaocan a green card with a big dandelion printed on it, and looked at Li Xiaocan reverently.
Li Xiaocan pretended to be surprised: "Wow, such a beautiful card, I really like it." After speaking, he took the card, picked up Jiang Bao and kissed him. The child is really an angel in the world, pure and beautiful, and he gives his best friends without reservation.
Jiang Bao giggled, Li Xiaocan looked at this lovely Jiang Bao, and missed his son very much.
"Xiaocan, I ordered a boxed lunch for you, you won't work overtime tonight, right?" Sister Wang came over and asked.
"If you don't work overtime, why are you ordering a boxed lunch for me? I go home and cook and eat. Li Xiaocan put down Jiang Bao.
"Thank you for helping me watch the child, Jiang Bao likes you very much, saying that you are the best aunt in the world." Sister Wang said gratefully.
"Where! Where! Don't dare to be, we are not as busy as your market, and besides, it's almost time to get off work, and I'm idle too. Li Xiaocan waved his hand.
"Xiaocan, can you do me a favor?" Sister Wang asked.
"Well, what's the deal?" Li Xiaocan has always been warm-hearted, as long as others open their mouths, she will do everything she can.
"My mother had bronchitis, and she was afraid of causing a lung infection when she was old, so she was hospitalized, Jiang Bao was too young, and I didn't want to take her to the hospital. There are many infectious diseases in the hospital, and the last time she went to the hospital, she got conjunctivitis. Can you help me keep an eye on the child? In the past two hours, I asked the doctor about the situation, went to pay the bill, and sat with my dad for a while and came back. ”
"You go, it's okay, I'll watch the child." Li Xiaocan agreed to come down.
"Thank you, I'll treat you to dinner another day." Sister Wang looked at Li Xiaocan gratefully, and squatted down and instructed Jiang Bao: "Jiang Bao, listen to Auntie, my mother will go to the hospital to see my grandmother, and I will be back soon, if you are obedient, my mother will take you to the merry-go-round, okay?" ”
When Jiang Bao heard the Trojan Horse, he was very happy: "Okay, Mom, I like Auntie." ”
Sister Wang took out a bag of small steamed buns and a bottle of milk from her bag and handed them to Li Xiaocan: "This is Jiang Bao's snack, if she is hungry, you help me give her this, you have a child, I can rest assured, thank you so much." ”
"Sister Wang, don't worry, Jiang Bao is very well-behaved, we will wait for you." Li Xiaocan patted Sister Wang's shoulder.
"Well, okay, then I'll go." Sister Wang hurriedly walked out with her bag on her back.
Li Xiaocan and Jiang Bao took off their shoes and sat barefoot on the ground to play. Li Xiaocan likes children, playing music for her for a while, watching her dance for a while, and two hours passed quickly.
Jiang Bao and Li Xiaocan were having a lot of fun, and Li Xiaocan was holding a pen to teach Jiang Bao to draw a puppy.
"Xiaocan, thank you!" Before Sister Wang entered the door, the voice arrived first. "Mom! Mom! Jiang Bao stood up and ran into his mother's arms.
"Hey, good baby, did you listen to Auntie? No naughty trick-or-treating, right? Sister Wang hugged Jiang Bao and handed Li Xiaocan a box of delicate pastries: "Xiaocan, it's hard work." ”
"It's okay, you're still so polite, anyway, I'm going home alone, and your baby played with me for two hours." Li Xiaocan took the pastry and said with a smile.
"Baby, are you happy?" Sister Wang asked Jiang Bao.
"Happy!" Jiang Bao smiled as brightly as a sunflower.
"Xiaocan, thank you! It's getting dark, because I've kept you in the company for so long, go back quickly, I'll invite you another day. Sister Wang picked up Jiang Bao's schoolbag and walked out of the company with Li Xiaocan.
"You're welcome, Sister Wang, I'll live next to me, I'll go first." After Li Xiaocan said goodbye, he returned home. As soon as he opened the door and pressed the light, Zhang Gang's phone came, and the two of them made a phone porridge......
Li Xiaocan gradually felt that the feeling of being in a different place was not so bad, and the two of them rarely quarreled on the phone. It turns out that weekend couples also have a certain degree of reasonableness.
In the green pavilion, Li Xiaocan was cutting steak with a knife and fork, and Sister Wang opposite scooped a spoonful of pears with salad dressing to her daughter next to her. Jiang Bao stuffed the cherry tomato into his mother's mouth: "Mom, you eat red fruit." ”
Li Xiaocan is envious, jealous and hateful: "Your mother and daughter are really happy, the mother is kind and filial, Jiang Bao is so well-behaved." ”
"Your son will be nice to you, too." Sister Wang comforted her.
Li Xiaocan pulled the fork on the iron plate casually, and said frustratedly: "My son probably has forgotten, and I am my mother." ”
"How long has it been since you've seen your son?" Sister Wang asked.
"More than three months." Li Xiaocan counts the days.
"I shouldn't forget it, and it's okay to cultivate feelings when I'm older in the future." Sister Wang fed Jiang Bao a bite of cauliflower.
"I bring my son less. Hey, for all sorts of reasons. Li Xiaocan couldn't say anything.
"Xiaocan, there is a sentence I don't know whether to say or not." Sister Wang took a tissue to wipe Jiang Bao's mouth, and Jiang Bao's tomato sauce was sticky to his nose.
"Well, just say what you want, Sister Wang, we are so acquainted, what can't you say?" Li Xiaocan stuffed a piece of beef into his mouth.
"Xiaocan, I advise you, let's go back to Zhang Gang, it's actually very dangerous for husband and wife to separate." Sister Wang took a sip of water.
"Sister Wang, don't you know, I always quarrel with him, once I quarreled with him, he actually went to the kitchen to get a kitchen knife, let me cut him, I was scared stupid, and I didn't dare to go up to grab the knife, and I was afraid that he would hurt himself, and I couldn't persuade him, I had to run out in a hurry, he went in for a while and put down the knife before I dared to go home, what do you call it?!" Li Xiaocan had a bitter stomach.
"You're still too impulsive, and you're strong-blooded. People need to learn to control their emotions. Sister Wang said.
"I don't know what's going on, when he was in love, he didn't even dare to come out, he never dared to yell at me, he didn't know how to get married, and he could quarrel over such a trivial thing as not emptying the trash can, and he knew that I wouldn't get married." Li Xiaocan's eyes dimmed.
"Xiaocan, you are too young, two people have to tolerate each other together, you don't know how to get along with each other."
"I tolerate him, does he tolerate me? The dish was fried and salty, and he couldn't eat it; It's light, he says it's tasteless; I asked him to fry it, and he fried a green vegetable and put soy sauce, I really don't know if he deliberately found fault or what? Li Xiaocan slammed the fork against the iron plate, clanging.
"No matter how noisy you are, no matter how noisy you are, the overall score is good." Sister Wang fed Jiang Bao a mouthful of noodles.
"It's better to be separated, at least now I can't quarrel on my phone." Li Xiaocan's tone soothed and looked out the window.
"Xiaocan, distance produces not beauty, but Xiaosan." Sister Wang continued to persuade.
"I think it's good now, he came once, and we were as harmonious as we were before marriage, which is good."
"That's just the beginning, the little don't win the new love, and after a long time, you will get used to the life of separation, and gradually, your thoughts are no longer on each other, and the possibility of divorce will become greater."
"Sister Wang, we all have children, I will not be separated from him."
"Don't say it too early, I'm from here." Sister Wang stopped cutting the steak and looked at Li Xiaocan, "Xiaocan, don't test human nature." ”
Li Xiaocan suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and when he looked up, there was a slight cold air above the seat.
"Mom, I'm full, I want to sleep." Jiang Bao yawned and rubbed his eyes, his eyes were half-open and half-closed, and his double eyelids were more obvious due to tiredness.
"Okay, Auntie and Mom will eat for a while, and I'll carry you to the sofa." Sister Wang took Jiang Bao into her arms, took off her sandals, put her on the sofa again, and covered her with a thin coat. Jiang Bao fell asleep as soon as he put it down, his chubby little hands hanging down. Sister Wang put her little hand down before picking up the spoon again and eating pasta.
"Xiaocan, I won't hide it from you, if I can turn back time, I will be desperate to live with my ex-husband, and I will not live separately from him for a salary of several thousand yuan."
"Oh" Li Xiaocan thought to herself, another divorce, there is a reason for the increase in the divorce rate, but he also covered up his emotions, for fear of breaking Sister Wang's heart.
"I had my first love with him, he was a senior, I was a junior, I was studying e-commerce, he was studying civil engineering. I was running on the playground and I knew him, and it just so happened that he loved sports. After we got together, we found that we had a lot to talk to, and we had common hobbies and languages. The campus romance was beautiful, and we survived the graduation breakup season and decided to stay together. Sister Wang stirred the watermelon juice with a straw.
"Wow, it started nicely." Li Xiaocan held her chin and looked at Sister Wang.
