[Net King + Black Basket] Seijuro, your mother calls you to go home for dinner!

After recovering her memory, Xunli spent three long and peaceful months. Since she started working at home, she would start with simple translation documents in the morning, and spare a lot of free time in the afternoon to take care of her children. She lived a happy life, Yashi She will never interfere with her freedom for no reason.Seijuro, who can see his mother waiting at the kindergarten gate almost every day, is also satisfied with the status quo.

About the news about Jinjing who broke up with her, Xunli specially mentioned it to Dianzi last week.It is said that she was transferred overseas to be an executive, nominally to be responsible for some matters during the listing of the newly established branch abroad.The ambitious Oshima finally got her coveted post of editor-in-chief of the Japanese headquarters.

Xun Li subconsciously thought that the matter was not that simple, but she didn't get to the bottom of it.

What made her a little concerned was Masashi's attitude. Since he had already planned to arrange Jinjing to go abroad, why should he fire her?

Masashi just put it lightly and perfunctorily, "The editorial department is not suitable for you."

"Who sent me back to the editorial department back then!?" Xun Li slandered inwardly.But satisfied with the status quo, she did not refute.

Xunli has spent the warm spring season in May in Japan and the sweltering yellow plum rainy season in June... From mid-July, it will be the most popular summer vacation for children.But the bad news that followed was that they had quizzes before the holidays.

The discipline in private kindergartens is quite strict, a bit like the primary school learning system.Fortunately, the children only need to take the three subjects of Chinese, foreign language and mathematics. Seijuro is talented and intelligent and has never slackened in his studies. However, his strict father Masashi still cruelly deprived him of his free time for review.

Having said that, there were still 10 minutes before get out of class ended, and high-end black cars were parked neatly outside the kindergarten, and many young women who were similar to Xunli's age were anxiously sitting in the co-pilot waiting for their children.

Xunli, who traveled on both feet, came a bit late and was squeezed into a very inconspicuous corner by the car parked at the door.She looked around from time to time, and the mothers' comments came from her ears——

"If it's too late, I won't be able to catch the plane... I plan to take my son to the airport and fly to Italy as soon as school is over."

"Finally, I can take advantage of the summer vacation to have a good rest."

"Not long ago, my child complained to me, and today I agreed to reward her. No, I booked XX restaurant in the city center."

……

Xunli's face suddenly became a little uneasy, and her hand was tilted, revealing a corner of the simply wrapped gift in the plastic bag.

Compared with them, her condolence ceremony is too shabby!

However, she still agrees with the family motto of the Akashi family, which is not to be extravagant and extravagant, which is completely opposite to the Atobe family who plant Chiba roses as grass.

The children's laughter suddenly hit like a tide, Xun Li withdrew his thoughts, and stared at the distant team with full concentration - it is not difficult to find that red head, his red hair seems to have become "Akashi" "symbol of.

They threw themselves into the arms of their parents one after another, and some handed over their report cards to their parents as if they were offering treasures.Suddenly there was a rustling sound of turning paper.

"Xiao Zheng, here!"

Xun Li desperately waved at the red head, trying to attract his mind.

Is it her illusion?Seijuro's expression was dignified, and he was not at all excited about ushering in the summer vacation.He walked slowly to Xun Li's side, holding a piece of paper in both hands.

There was a "thump" in her heart, could it be that she failed the exam?

"Bah bah, don't think about it...Xiao Zheng is the best!"

Xunli hesitated for a moment, and took the initiative to glance at the report card in his hand—it is said that elite education starts from a young age, and the examination level of kindergarten middle class can be comparable to that of the first grade of elementary school, but it is not difficult after all.

Full marks in Chinese, full marks in mathematics, full marks in English...huh?The paper with a perfect score of 20 actually got 19.5.

"It's great!" Xun Li let out a sigh of relief.

"English is not a perfect score." His facial features were wrinkled into a ball, expressing resentment for the point five on the paper.He just misspelled a letter in a word.

"It's good to be strict with yourself, but I believe Xiaozheng is already the best in the class."

"There is a classmate who has a perfect score in English... although my total score is higher." And that child grew up abroad, so he failed in Chinese—Seijuro muttered in his heart.

"It's just 0.5 points less, don't worry about it too much." Xun Li couldn't laugh or cry, "It's not worth it to be unhappy for a little point."

"But Dad..."

So I was worried about Masashi's face~

"Dude, I believe Dad won't be so narrow-minded, right?"

Perhaps Xun Li's words had an effect, he, who has always trusted his mother, finally relaxed a lot, and happily accepted the gift she prepared.

"What is it?" He carefully took out the gift box from the bag, and carefully shook it a few times.

"Guess~"

After returning home, Zhengjuro returned to the room with the gift in his arms, obviously wishing he could unwrap the gift the next second, but he still maintained a serious face, afraid that others would see through his little thoughts.

He could no longer hold back the restlessness in his heart, and opened the box with glowing eyes——

It's a hardcover shogi set!

Seijuro couldn't help rolling around on the bed with the chess box in his arms, shouting "Long live mother!"

The set that Xunli bought four years ago was second-hand from a night market, and the corners were a little damaged.He couldn't play with his father's tricks casually, so the gift she prepared this time was just what he wanted.

Mothers always know what their children really want.

Seijuro's good mood only lasted until the evening, and was mercilessly destroyed by Masashi.The strict father spent five minutes carefully studying the transcripts and test papers he brought home, and said to him with a calm face, "Come to the study."

"Father must be angry QAQ." Seijuro was a little flustered, showing a frustrated expression.

"Why are you angry? Didn't you do well in the exam?" Xun Li patted him on the shoulder with a look of "don't be afraid, son". "He's scaring you."

Maybe I went to the study because I prepared a gift for him~

"I can see that Dad has a bad face."

Seijuro, who knew how to read words and expressions at a young age, shook his head sadly, jumped off the chair resignedly, and walked towards the study as if he was on the execution ground.

Xun Li stared blankly at his son's back.Well, she could also see that the corners of Masashi's mouth were a little lower than before.But she didn't dare to increase Seijuro's psychological burden. The child had been a little afraid of his father since he was born, perhaps because Masashi's ghostly aura from time to time acted as a deterrent.

Only the thick-skinned Xunli dared to challenge Yashi's bottom line again and again.

"Tick, tick..."

Kaoru sat on the sofa idly sharpening Seijuro's pencil with a utility knife, and occasionally looked up to check the time.

It's not normal, usually the father and son's class ends at 08:30, but today it was delayed until nine o'clock!

Her hand holding the utility knife was hanging in the air, and she suddenly lost interest in sharpening pencils.

"It's time for Seijurou to go to bed at nine o'clock! What is going on with Masashi Akashi?"

Couldn't it be because of the 19.5 paper for a long time?Wasn't it just a misspelled letter? Xun Li began to complain about this narrow-minded man—she thought she had always had a good eye for people.

She swayed lightly to the door of the study on the third floor, and immature children's voices could be faintly heard from the room.In order to hear more clearly, she almost pressed her ear against the reddish-brown door, and heard a few sentences in English that were not very fluent.

"Isn't it? Let such a young child read English books!"

Xunli found a few esoteric words with sharp ears, and began to fight for Seijuro.

Even though she taught his English, Masashi would still spare time to teach alone, and to put it bluntly, he didn't trust her ability.Xunli also turned a blind eye to this, and so far has only taught a few nursery rhymes and daily expressions.

"The child's father is too much!"

Kaoru curled his lips, and vowed to take Seijuro out to have fun for a while from tomorrow, so as to make up for his injured fragile heart (big mistake).

**

As the mother and son expected, Masashi "considerately" added half an hour of spelling lessons to Seijuro every day, and Xunli had to believe that this was his unique way of expressing fatherly love.But she was not to be outdone, and on the first day of summer vacation, she dragged Seijuro out onto the road, and even found him an unexpected companion.

"Tsk, my mother forced me to come. I don't want to come at all."

"Yes Yes."

"...It's not gorgeous!"

Just by hearing this accent with a British accent, you can tell who it is.

Xun Li suppressed a smile, and looked at Jingwu's outfit with unscrupulous Zen——in summer, he even dressed up as a British-style handsome guy, with unique silver buttons on the collar and cuffs, and polished brown underfoot. Leather shoes, the whole style is quite retro.

She seriously doubts whether passers-by will regard him as a child actor who shoots commercials, or an eighteenth-century aristocratic young master who traveled from England.

"Xiao Jingwu, do you think Tokyo's climate is as cool as London's?"

He loosened his collar impatiently, his skin was flawless ivory white in the sun.

"How could this young master make such a low-level mistake?"

Xunli and the red-haired little boy exchanged glances, it was hard to imagine that Keigo and Seijuro were cousins.

"Here, this is a gift."

Keigo calmed down when facing Seijuro, and unnaturally stuffed the bag into the hands of his cousin who was a head shorter than him.

"Thank you...cousin."

The former's eyes lit up, and Seijuro's "cousin" greatly satisfied his vanity, and this guy immediately assumed the posture of a big brother.

"You have a heart." Xun Li was very surprised. It's not that she didn't think about preparing a gift for Jing Wu, but this picky young master will definitely find it disgusting~ "Let's go eat something first? I know a very good coffee shop. "

She temporarily thought of using food as a gift in return, and she couldn't help but take the two little hands (Jing Wu couldn't shake them off) and walked to a store that a colleague had strongly recommended to her earlier.

The shop is small but well-decorated. Just entering the door, you have to pass through an antique corridor. There are large and small imitation famous paintings on the walls with lily pattern wallpaper, and the strong aroma of latte coffee is in the air.The old-fashioned phonograph placed in the corner creaked and played the famous French song "La Vie en Rose".

"Although it's a coffee shop, it offers a lot of French pastries. You can order whatever you want!" Xun Li handed the menu to the two little boys sitting side by side.

Jing Wu nodded, so-so.

Living in the UK, he loves French food, especially all kinds of pastries and desserts.

"I'd like a Bavarian coffee mug," he said, pointing to the menu curtly.

"Huh? Coffee, it's not good for children."

"...a nut tower."

"Teeth will get stuck." Xun Li refused again.

"==" The corner of Jing Wu's mouth twitched, who on earth said that he ordered it casually earlier! ?He glanced at the menu and raised his voice, relying on his English advantage, and said, "Ipreferwarmpearsincarameltart."

"Caramel pear tart? Not bad." Xun Li glanced at the attractive picture and agreed. "What about Xiao Zheng?"

Seijuro seldom eats sweets, he looked at the picture as if thinking, and he still prefers the simple dark chocolate pastry. "Opera."

"As expected of Xiaozheng, I ordered the classic one for the first time." She was a little surprised. "Okay, I'd like a latte, a Kyoto cheese tower, and a puff sundae."

Seijuro and Keigo were speechless after hearing the name of the dessert she reported, and stared at her with black lines on their faces.

Among the three of them, she is the oldest, but like an ordinary child, she loves childish sweets the most... She is really a man! ?

Xunli, who had a rare chance to eat all over the place, finally walked out of the coffee shop on her stomach. After eating two desserts, she ordered another plate of Black Forest.Seijuro watched in disbelief as she devoured three servings of dim sum all by herself, without saying it was too sweet at all, and the satisfied expression after eating and drinking made her look like a greedy cat.

The corners of his mouth turned up involuntarily, and it was the first time he discovered that his mother with a childish side was actually a hidden dessert lover.

"Where do you want to go next? Disney?" Xun Li proposed.

"No, there are too many people." The picky Jingwu was the first to refuse.

"Shopping? Pretend I didn't say anything." She shook her head, "How about the bookstore?"

"Good……"

Seijuro just wanted to nod, but was interrupted by Keigo, "Who would come out to visit the bookstore on purpose!?"

Xun Li raised his forehead, why can't they behave like ordinary children?It won't be too difficult!

She finally led them to the park closest to the city center on the grounds of digestion, perhaps because of the summer vacation, when a large group of children and parents gathered.The area for swings and slides has been occupied by children, and many young children are playing in a small water spray square next to it.The sun was shining brightly at noon, and even young people ran into the fountain square to take a shower in short-sleeved shorts, and some even prepared water guns.

Seijuro looked curiously at this novel entertainment facility, which was neither a fountain nor a square in the traditional sense.Jingwu, on the other hand, looked like he didn't dare to set foot.

"Do you dare to rush in?" Xun Li had a playful smile on his face.

"No."

"But the weather is so hot, Xiao Jingwu, you are sweating."

"No, no!" He turned his head guiltily, and his tone was pretentious.The tips of the ears hidden between the purple-gray hair were red.

Under Xunli's various training/teaching and provocative methods, the two children remained motionless, refusing to try it out of face.She reluctantly raised the sun umbrella and pointed to the swing that was temporarily vacant.

"Go play on that one, it's called a swing, it's fun."

"Of course I know it's called a swing!" A certain young master exploded at the intersection.

This was a different experience for Seijuro.He sat firmly on the swing with his feet off the ground.When Xun Li pushed his back lightly to make his body lose its center of gravity, his breathing suddenly became rapid, his hands clenched the rope tightly, his knuckles turned white.

"Don't be afraid."

Xun Li noticed his abnormality, and the strength in his hands was much smaller.

Once he got used to the excitement brought by the swing, Seijuro suddenly wanted to compete with his cousin next to him for a higher swing. Unfortunately, the short-legged little Douding couldn't control his body well, and Xunli was worried about letting him do it alone. .

"Mom, get taller."

"A little higher."

"It can't be higher, it's not safe."

If he didn't know that he would fall in the next second, Seijuro would have wanted to reach out and touch the cotton candy-like clouds at the moment his body flew high into the sky.

He was deeply fascinated by this feeling of "freedom".
