Pastel Colors

Day0507:19

The next day was a Saturday, Songran woke up in the sun on a bed, and saw a little red foot resting on his chest, with five toes moving from time to time, like a row of jumping piano keys.

Bubu slept wildly, turned ninety degrees overnight, and quickly fell off the bed in all directions.Songran picked up the child and sent it back to the quilt. Bubu was still awake, so he smacked his mouth twice in his dream, turned around and hugged the eiderdown quilt tightly, and began to gnaw droolingly.

I really want to stuff him with a cute pacifier.

Songran thought with his chin in his hands.

Lin Hui didn't have time to go home last night, so she temporarily slept in the next room. When she came out yawning in the morning, she found that the door of the living room was open, and the door of 8012A, which was separated by a corridor, was also open. The interior view was clearly visible.A loud and sharp cat meow came over, full of anger, no matter how it sounded, it was a curse.

"Songran, what is your cat doing?"

Lin Hui went over and knocked on the door.

Song Ran squatted on the ground, his right hand was bitten by Budoudou, and he was holding a can with his left hand and trying to open it with his teeth. He said with a sad face, "Didn't you come back last night? My ancestor was so hungry that it exploded."

Lin Hui opened the can for him and poured it into a small bowl.

Bu Doudou smelled the smell of chicken, and finally released Songran after serving his sentence, but his anger did not disappear, and he licked and groaned, looking arrogant and unrelenting.

Weekends are relaxed, and the breakfast is richer than usual: a plate of fried tofu, a plate of salted edamame, and a plate of spiced beef. The white porridge in a small casserole is divided into three bowls, and the center of each bowl is decorated with meat floss, preserved eggs, and mustard.Boubo enjoys VIP treatment, with an extra glass of fresh milk.

Lin Hui helped set up the dining table, and began to follow Songran around, thinking that he was handsome in a plaid apron, he was also handsome when he put the dishes and chopsticks on the dining table one by one, and the action of tying a small canvas on Boubo was even more handsome. The more you like it, the love bubbles are flying all over the sky.

Her gaze was too hot, and Song Ran was embarrassed by being stared at, so he added a spoonful of porridge to her: "Eat, don't look at it."

Lin Hui shook her head: "No!"

Song Ran held up the casserole and spoon: "Am I pretty?"

Lin Hui grinned, turned her head and asked Bubu, "Is Brother Songran good-looking?"

"nice!"

Boob answered loudly.

So it became two people staring at Songran together.

Song Ran was completely defeated in front of Lin Hui's rough teasing skills, blushed with embarrassment, stretched out his hand to scratch his short hair, and hid awkwardly back in the kitchen.

After breakfast, Lin Hui said goodbye and went back to school, while Song Ran took Bubu to the vegetable market to "experience life".

"Experience life" is a regular parent-child activity in the kindergarten. Parents and babies complete a small life theme every weekend, such as baking small biscuits and sharing them with other children on Monday, or planting wheatgrass and watching it grow from seed to green shoot The process of seedlings is made into a record book by painting and drawing.

He Zhiyuan is busy with work, and has always left this "small trouble" activity to the nanny, and the nanny never takes it seriously, only Song Ran thinks it is very important.

At least, this is the "big thing" for children.

This week Boo Boo's small task is to "find a round vegetable".With an environmental bag in his hand and 100 yuan in his pocket, he followed Songran into the vegetable market with his head in the air.There are many people in the vegetable market, and Bubu has never been here before, so he is a little cautious.Songran demonstrated the process of picking vegetables and paying the bill several times, and Bubu learned quickly, and began to hop around the stalls like a rabbit with ease.

Songran took out her mobile phone and chased after Boubo to take pictures.

"Purple sweet potato, three yuan and six!"

Boo Boo held a purple potato in each hand and held it above his head, posing like a Mickey Mouse.

Click, then press the shutter.

"Zucchini, two dollars and eight!"

Boo Bu hugged a few zucchini in front of his chest, making a warm bouquet.

Click, Songran pressed the shutter again.

"Pumpkin, five dollars and four!"

Boob carried a pumpkin on his shoulders, held his fists and raised his head, pretending to be a strong man.

Click, Songran pressed the shutter for the third time.

The two bought half a bag of "Yuanyuan Vegetables", and finally wandered to a radish stall, where carrots, white radishes, and purple radishes were all available.Bubu tiptoed to pick the radish, feeling that this one was round, and that one was also round, puffing out his cheeks and hesitating.At first, Songran was happy to accompany him to choose, but then he felt the pressure on his head getting more and more terrifying. When he looked up, he saw a pair of narrow and old eyes, and his heart immediately "thumped".

Isn't this the mother-in-law who thought he had a child out of wedlock? !

Although the mother-in-law is old, her eyes are sharp.She looked at Songran and then at Bubu, perfectly deepening the misunderstanding, stood up tremblingly, and asked, "Little friend, how old is Nun this year?"

Bubu was full of energy: "Grandmother is good, I am four years old!"

The mother-in-law probably didn't expect a child from a single-parent family to be so cheerful, and her expression was obviously taken aback.She stared at Bubu's little face for a while, her eyes were slightly red, as if recalling some past memories, she pulled a plastic bag, picked a few round and fat white radishes into it, and chanted He said: "My mother-in-law helped me pick out the radishes, cut and collected money, and gave it away for nothing, for nothing."

Although the radish is not worth a few dollars, it is the business that my mother-in-law relies on to make a living.Song Ran didn't want to take advantage of others by misunderstanding, so she hurried to stop her, but was slapped away.

The mother-in-law glared at him, her face was quite fierce, but her tone was kind: "You must have suffered a lot in raising your son by yourself. You have a lot of troubles to raise your son? You have a lot of trouble when you raise your son. I am so young that I come out to help you buy vegetables. It's easy. It's easy. In the future Promising."

As he spoke, he tied the plastic bag tightly and handed it to Boo Boo.

Holding the white radish, Bubu asked strangely, "Mother-in-law, why don't you take money?"

The mother-in-law smiled and said, "Look how happy you are."

Bubu accepted this reason, and said very obediently: "The teacher asked everyone to find round vegetables, and my mother-in-law's radish is just round, thank you mother-in-law! I like you too!"

The mother-in-law was so moved by his words that she almost shed tears. She grabbed Songran's hand, pointed to the pork stall opposite, and told her: "The children are growing up, so they must keep up with their nutrition. Master Ge's pork ribs are very fresh, so go buy them." A few yuan, go home and cook a carrot soup, you know how to cut it?"

Bubu then grabbed the corner of Songran's clothes, his face full of anticipation: "Carrot soup!"

Song Ran thanked her mother-in-law, put the radish into the recycle bag, squatted down, and said with a smile, "Okay, brother will cook radish soup for you."

Song's love pork ribs radish soup, sliced ​​ginger, chopped green onion, two caps of cooking wine, simmered on high heat for three hours, stewed into a white soup, radish pieces floating, texture soft and glutinous, transparent color, sprinkle a layer of cut The tempting aroma of chopped shallots filled the living room.

Bubu was so greedy that he didn't even tease the cat anymore, he took the initiative to fasten the small canvas for himself, jumped on the dining chair, and sat upright waiting for the feeding.

After the meal, it was a leisurely nap time. Songran hugged Bubu and told him a newly made up adventure story of radish.I was supposed to be able to fall asleep after the lecture, but Bubu had just drank radish soup, and he was particularly concerned about when the radish would go into the pot, and kept asking "Is the pot coming out?" and "Has it met the pot".Songran's radish finally escaped from birth, but fate was ruthless, and after several twists and turns, it ended up in a soup pot tragically.It took him two hours to make up the whole story, and he almost cried.

When He Zhiyuan called at night, Bubu was sitting on Songran's lap, holding a large flat-tip pen to paint.

This time it's not colored pencils, but real watercolors.

He held the phone in his left hand, and Songran gently held his right hand, dipped in the paint, added water, adjusted the thickness, and then applied it carefully stroke by stroke.

On the paper is a round and fat white radish, half buried in the soil, half exposed outside, squatting beside it is a gray rabbit with long ears, pulling out the radish leaves.

"Baba, I'm drawing a radish!" Bubu said sweetly, "When the drawing is finished, I'll show it to other children and tell them the story of the radish."

He Zhiyuan said happily: "What's the story about the radish?"

Bubu said in a hurry: "Of course the radish has a story! It was originally a small seed buried in the soil, and it grew and grew. One day it grew up and was pulled out by the rabbit. The rabbit couldn't eat such a big radish. , gave it to my mother-in-law, and my mother-in-law gave it to me, and my brother made it into soup, and I drank it up in the end!"

His tone was light and cute, He Zhiyuan laughed and asked him: "Did you learn how to draw a carrot?"

Bubu shook his head shyly: "Not yet."

"So... Brother Songran painted it?"

"Yes." Bubu nodded, "My brother drew the radishes and rabbits, I just need to paint the colors. Baba, let me tell you, coloring is fun, just dip it in the paint and stir it in the grid , but also to add water, and then, then brush here and there... oops!"

He was too excited when he spoke, he couldn't control the strength of his hands, and a stroke of rose red was painted on the outside of the radish.

Bubu stared blankly at the dazzling big red line, feeling guilty in his heart, raised his head, and looked up at Songran with his big black eyes: "Brother, I accidentally drew it...I'm sorry."

There was water in his eyes, and his voice was low.

Song Ran quickly comforted him: "It's okay, my brother often draws outside, let's just change it."

As he spoke, he picked up a small pen, sketched a few times, and drew another radish next to the original radish, and happened to circle the wrong rose red in it.

"Look, has it changed?"

"Wow!" Bubu stared at the newly grown radish and exclaimed, "Brother is amazing!"

Song Ran smiled, and continued to hold his little hand to paint. Boo Bu was busy with his hands, but his mouth was idle, and began to live broadcast the whole process of painting to He Zhiyuan. After a while, he painted radish leaves, the green ones were so beautiful, and then he drew rabbit eyes , the red one is so pretty.

In this way, He Zhiyuan accompanied Bubu to paint the first watercolor in his life through the phone.

To be honest, when a child is excited, it is inevitable that he will be noisy. He Zhiyuan couldn't stand it before, and always hoped that he would be quiet, but now he thinks it's cute for Bubu to jump up and down.

This child is sensitive to color and shape, likes to talk in detail, and has a bright and bright laugh.Occasionally, he would make a small mistake, and when he made a mistake, he would get nervous, and eagerly ask Songran for help, and when the matter was resolved, he would turn back into that happy and lively baby who loves to toss around again.

It can't be called cute and quiet, but it's really cute.

I really want to hug him and kiss him, prick him with the short beard that I haven't shaved, let him release his nature freely in my arms, act like a baby, and laugh like this.

He Zhiyuan found that when he and Bubu were talking on the phone, Song Ran usually didn't interrupt, and only answered briefly when Bubu asked a question, as if he was afraid of disturbing the rare interaction between their father and son.

Although he didn't talk much, every sentence was genuinely considerate and patient. He Zhiyuan even suspected that Songran's tolerance for children was innate and had no bottom line.Once Bobu got into a corner and insisted on painting the rabbits in colors. Songran explained to him several times in a gentle voice, saying that there are no colorful rabbits in the world.Bubu is stubborn, he doesn't depend on life and death, He Zhiyuan thought that Songran should be angry, but Ke Songran just smiled and said that let's match a set of the most beautiful colors and draw a most beautiful colored rabbit.

In front of the children, Song Ran has always been gentle and calm, but in front of He Zhiyuan, Song Ran has always been unable to shake off the little tension in his heart, stammering, and his teeth are always fighting.

He Zhiyuan doesn't know which look he likes more, or...

In fact, I like them all.
