Lebao handed over her schoolbag full of money to her father to take care of, and looked at the bulging schoolbag, she was very reluctant, for fear that the money in it would disappear when she went out and came back.

Ye Chong thought that she was afraid of life and didn't dare to go, so he whispered and comforted: "Don't be afraid, there are children in the past, if you don't like to play, come back to me." ”

Le Bao's thousand words were lying in her throat but she didn't know how to say them, she sighed quite deeply, patted her small schoolbag, and hinted to Ye Chong: "Dad, take care of it." ”

Ye Chong's comforting words stopped at his lips, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly: "Got it." ”

Lebao walked over to the woman who was waiting, looked at her face and thought for a moment that she didn't know what to call her, and probably remembered that she was one of the two little daughters-in-law.

Just as she was about to open her mouth, she turned off the flint and remembered that Li Kaicheng called her the second daughter-in-law.

"Second aunt."

Zou Shuyun raised the corners of her mouth: "Little baby, your mouth is so sweet, how old are you this year?" What month was it born? Would you like to take you to see your sister? ”

On the way out of the room to the back garden, Zou Shuyun's question to her suddenly changed, and began to test her intentionally or unintentionally: "Did you just get out of school?" ”

"Where do you study? Who usually picks you up? ”

"Why didn't your mother come along?"

Hearing the last question, Lebao finally understood what the woman really wanted to ask.

Lebao raised an innocent smile: "Because my mother is not here." ”

This answer is ambiguous, not for the time being, not for the time being, and never for now.

Zou Shuyun smiled slightly: "So that's the case." She thought of the gossip she had heard, and she had a different idea in her heart.

The back garden was set up as an outdoor party scene, with balloon-shaped lights lighting up the garden, and before you got closer, you could hear the children's cheerful laughter, chasing and playing.

Zou Shuyun approached with her, and Lebao saw a group of children playing there from a distance.

Those children generally looked much older than her, and Zou Shuyun didn't take her directly to get to know everyone, but helped her find a place first.

"Lebao, you sit here, and the second aunt will help cut a piece of cake."

Zou Shuyun walked to her daughter's small group and called out the children who were making a lot of noise.

A girl who was playing in the bubble pool got up from the pool, her body was completely wet, her hair sticking to her forehead and getting wet.

Zou Shuyun was probably introducing Lebao to her, the girl was still holding a toy water gun in her hand, she looked in the direction of Lebao in a daze, then looked at her mother, nodded hesitantly, and then climbed out of the bubble pool and walked to the cake table.

Seeing that she suddenly stopped playing, several children on the side also got up and asked, "Sissi, where are you going?" ”

Zou Shuyun replied to these children's words on behalf of the birthday star: "My sister is coming, she went to say hello to her sister." ”

Zou Shuyun cut a cake with the help of her aunt and walked over to Lebao with the cake.

Zou Shuyun accompanied her back, and when she walked into Lebao, she found that the little girl didn't look very happy.

"This is your cousin, her name is Ye Lebao, she is three and a half years old this year, Sissi, you say hello to your cousin and give her a cake to eat."

Li Qian pursed the corners of her mouth slightly, and looked at Lebao with a hint of curiosity, although she was not very happy, she still did as her mother requested.

Obviously she is the birthday star, and suddenly there is a little child like Lebao, and the mother is unusual, treating this child with special respect.

Ye Lebao, Li Qian has an impression of this name in her heart, and the surname Ye is very important in their family.

She watched Lebao call her sister with a well-behaved face and then take the cake, and then looked at her mother's appearance of being courteous to meet her usually, and secretly pursed the corners of her mouth with a little disdain in her heart.

"Happy birthday sister." Lebao handed over the temporary gifts she bought on the road, in fact, she didn't know what was inside, but it was probably something that girls liked.

The corners of Li Qian's mouth raised a polite smile: "Thank you sister for the gift." She reached out and took it.

Zou Shuyun took the opportunity to say, "Sister let's go play together." ”

Li Qianxiao frowned slightly, and said unwillingly: "We are all big children over there, and he is too young to accidentally hurt him." ”

Zou Shuyun said angrily: "Then you know that she is a child, just pay attention." ”

Lebao hurriedly said, "It's okay, I can play by myself." ”

"Then how can you do it, the person who comes is a guest, you can let yourself alone." Zou Shuyun hinted at her daughter with her eyes: "You are the protagonist today, you are the big birthday star, it is necessary to take care of your guests, otherwise your grandfather will be angry." ”

Moving out the word grandpa, Li Qian immediately nodded as if she had been stepped on by her tail: "Sister, you eat the cake first, and when you finish eating, I'll take you to play with us." ”

Lebao thought to himself. You don't have to be so reluctant to look like this eldest sister, and I don't want to go.

Zou Shuyun smiled with satisfaction: "That's right, you have to get along well, I'll go back to take care of your grandfather first." ”

Li Qian nodded sullenly, and as soon as her mother left, her tone became a little colder: "You eat the cake by yourself, call me when you finish eating." ”

"Oh...... Okay sister. ”

Li Qian turned her head and ran back, she hated her mother's attitude, which made Li Qian feel like a slave to serve others.

Since it's her birthday party, she's a birthday star, why can't she be allowed to have a happy day?

Li Qian was extremely disgusted with her mother's snobbish face that clinged to the powerful, and even hated the object of her flattery.

Back in the group of children, a group of children gathered around and asked her something, Li Qian raised her hand and pointed in the direction of Lebao, and many people looked at it together.

Lebao looked at the group of black children, not knowing what they were talking about staring at him.

On this side, after Zou Shuyun came back, she said to Ye Chong and the old man with a smile: "The children were very happy when they met, and I asked Sissi to play with Lebao." ”

Li Kaicheng nodded: "The children are all simple and cute, and it is easy to get along." ”

On this side of the back garden, Lebao deliberately ate the cake in her hand very slowly, because there were people on the other side of the bubble pool from time to time to cast stares, and some children seemed to be extremely curious about her.

Farts crawled out of the pool, went around the field and pretended to pass by casually, then stopped to look at her secretly.

Lebao could pretend not to notice at first, and ran over to watch her two or three times in a row, but she couldn't stand it anymore, so she simply raised her head and looked back at the past clearly.

Unexpectedly, the other party couldn't stand the star, and ran away with a small scream.

Lebao pondered, she is not an unusual animal, can she look at her like a wild monkey?

The group of children muttered that they didn't know what they were talking about, and suddenly a boy named Taller stood up and said in a loud voice that Lebao could hear: "You are so cowardly! You can't! Replace me! ”
