15. Touch your head
I twitched my hand, and before I could get it out of his grasp, the kid had a lot of strength.
A little inexplicable, I don't know where to annoy him, if my younger brother Xiaotong I can figure out the reason, but my little father-in-law's subtle mind can't be grasped for a while. I had to ask softly: "Ah Ping, what's wrong?" Aren't you happy? β
After a pause, he heard a muffled voice overflow from his mouth: "I'm not a puppy. β
The brain circuits can't keep up, and I don't know why he said this. However, I didn't expect to hear an explanation from him, and when I tried to touch his head to soothe him, he pulled back and looked at me with accusatory eyes.
I was stunned and stunned, and finally understood what he meant.
It turned out that I was excluded from touching his head, because that way of touching his head was like touching a puppy, and I was speechless for this logic.
looked at those eyes that were a little aggrieved and uneven, and had a general understanding of Ah Ping in my heart. He can't actually be considered stupid, but he is intellectually like a child, and then he doesn't like to talk. Many times the character is naΓ―ve, there are not so many twists and turns, happy, sad, angry, will be directly expressed on this face. To be specific, in my original era, he was a little autistic and not mentally mature enough.
It is estimated that Widow Liu never let him go out for this reason, but no matter how small things in the countryside and mountains can be spread, and when they are spread outside, they will become a fool in people's mouths.
To be honest, I have no experience with such people, although Xiaotong has a poor physique and can't do without taking medicine, but the boys who should have a lively temperament have a lively temperament, and even when they are in good health, they are still very naughty. But he was a little dependent on me, especially when he was sick, and he only took the medicine I gave him.
At this time, I was sighing to myself while shabu the pot, and suddenly there were ripples on the water surface in the pot, and it was actually more Ah Ping's hand that made waves. I saw him spin around the water with an index finger, and then gently picked up, the water droplets fell halfway up in the air, and he picked them again, and the water droplets fell again, and he had a lot of fun.
I grabbed his hand and shook my head at him, "Dirty." β
The water in the pot was so clean, and there was still a layer of oil on it, so his fingers were greasy.
In fact, his hands are very beautiful, his fingers are slender, and his nails are round and reddish, and at a glance, he knows that Widow Liu has never let him do housework. A few times I also didn't touch the spring water with my fingers, but now I have to work hard for you to make soup, the two hands are together, my woman's hands are not as white and tender as his, but there are thin calluses in the palms.
I pushed towards the water tank next to me and said, "Go and use that basin to get some clean water and wash your hands." β
He obediently walked over to the water tank, and I continued to brush the pot after seeing that he could fetch water.
"Xu Lan."
When I heard my name come out of Ah Ping's mouth, I was a little suspicious of my ears, and I asked, "What did you say?" β
Xu Lan, he repeated it again.
I don't want to ask him what he called me, I wonder if he knows my name. Looking at the door, my mother-in-law shouldn't have come over to look for trouble for a while, so I pulled Ah Ping to sit down in the stove, which was warm and hidden, and then began my torture.
"Ah Ping, how do you know my name?"
ββ¦β¦β
"What did your mother tell you about us?"
ββ¦β¦β
"Do you think it's strange that there's an extra me in the house?"
ββ¦β¦β
He looked at me ignorantly from beginning to end, as if he understood and confused, and finally I shook my head with a smile, why did I think about getting a message out of his mouth. I resisted the urge to reach out and touch his head again, and I really had the idea of caressing these ignorant eyes.
