A devil in distress is not as good as a pig

It is the season of daisies in full bloom, and the sea of ​​flowers stretches over the white wooden fence, spreading like a delicate carpet until the base of the wall.The rose vine branches stretched out from the soil, and climbed up the window lattice along the reddish-brown brick wall, vaguely bringing a little green.

This is a traditional Victorian building, which looks old. The red bricks are full of signs of erosion, and dark green moss grows in the shaded corners.But despite this, it is dignified and calm, timeless and elegant like all old-fashioned buildings.

The car stopped on the small road outside the wooden gate, the driver went around the front of the car and opened the door, Zhu Ye stepped out of the car, and turned around to pick up a little boy.

Little Sunflower has grown a lot taller than it did three years ago, and looks like a six or seven-year-old human child. Because of the stretched skeleton, it is no longer as plump and round as it was when it was a child, and it looks like a young man. Looks good.

"Is this right here?" He pulled out a backpack from the car, his big green eyes looked curiously at the small building inside the wooden fence, and his whole body exuded vitality that needed to be beaten.

Without waiting for Zhu Ye to answer, he jumped out like a wild horse, leaped over the short fence lightly with his long legs, and shouted as he ran, "Xiaoxi, Xiaoxi!"

Zhu Yefei stretched out his hand, but he still couldn't grab the back of his neck. The veins on his forehead twitched violently. Although the fairy king sealed the little sunflower's demon spirit so that he couldn't cast mana like Mohu, he was still stronger and more flexible than ordinary humans. Many times, it turns out that no one in the entire Zhu family can hold him in except Mo Hu.

"Stop barking, be polite!" Zhu Ye raised his voice, "And do you know why roads are being built in the yard?"

"Srry!" Little Sunflower turned around and made a face at him, jumped from the grass onto the stone road, shrugged: "I'm just so excited to see Xiaoxi, don't worry, my feet are very light, I didn't step on the lawn. "

Zhu Ye raised his forehead, his first love is terrible, after three years, this kid is still thinking about his "girl friend".Speaking of which, is the trait of idiot also inherited?

Zhu Li died suddenly "due to illness" three years ago, and Zhang Yunxi went to England on the grounds of raising a baby. After that, she never returned to Haicheng, and cut off all contact with there.Later, when Zhu Ye heard that she had given birth to a son, he asked people to inquire about it, but he didn't know whether it was because she lived in seclusion or avoided it deliberately.

Half a month ago, Zhu Ye learned from a client that she was living in seclusion in this small town, so he sent his assistant to visit her in person. Only then did Zhang Yunxi take the initiative to call him and ask him to come over for vacation.

Today, Zhu Ye no longer wants to pursue the debts between the Zhu family and the Zhang family, but Zhang Yunxi grew up with him, and his mother entrusted him to take care of this little sister before her death. Well, because of emotion and reason, he should come and see her.

Probably hearing Little Sunflower's cry, the door of the small building opened, and a woman wearing a thick woolen shawl came out with a peaceful and warm smile on her face.Three years later, Zhang Yunxi still looks like a girl, her hair is cut short, her bangs are neat, and there are big dark eyes, her face is still a little baby fat, and there are some freckles on the bridge of her nose, but her complexion is very good, not at all like A mother of a three-year-old.

"Yunxi." Zhu Ye felt quite emotional, strode over and hugged her, "It's good to meet you, I haven't seen you for several years, you look so beautiful."

"Thank you, but you've aged quite a bit." Zhang Yunxi still had the same delicate appearance as before, and looked at Zhu Ye with a smile, "Oh brother, don't be angry, I'm just kidding, you are not old, but mature , more manly."

"It's three years old, I'm old." Zhu Ye smiled and shook his head.The neglected little Sunflower squeezed over from behind him: "Xiaoxi, Xiaoxi, and me and me, I'm mature too, I'm a man now!"

"Hey, who's handsome guy is this, the little sunflower has grown so tall?" Zhang Yunxi bent down and pinched his nose.Little Sunflower hugged her on tiptoe and kissed her face: "Yes, I look very good, does Xiaoxi miss me?"

"I really want to." Zhang Yunxi smiled and pulled him into the room, "Come in, it's cold outside today, and there's a fireplace in the living room, so it's very warm."

The three of them entered the gate, turned around the hallway, and inside was a spacious living room, surrounded by warm fabric sofas in a semicircle, with an oval coffee table in the middle, on which were tea sets, refreshments and fruits.Opposite the sofa is an old-fashioned fireplace, which burns high-quality pine wood. There is no smell of smoke, only a faint smell of rosin, and the flame is blazing, warm and comfortable.

An oak rocking chair is placed in front of the fireplace, next to a thick big red woolen carpet, some books and toys are scattered on the carpet, a chubby little boy is sitting on the carpet, frowning and putting together a big jigsaw puzzle .

"Le, come here." Zhang Yunxi called the boy, "Look who's here?"

The little boy raised his head, looked at Zhu Ye with his big black eyes, and then at the little sunflower, and said hello generously: "Hi, everyone." He was still young and a little slurred, but he could hear Chinese is good, and there is no weird retroflex sound like ABC.

"This is Leo, my son, who is almost three years old." Zhang Yunxi introduced, her eyebrows and eyes were full of tenderness.

"Leo?" Zhu Ye looked at the child in surprise. This child looked too much like Zhu Li, with dark skin, deep eye sockets, and a high nose bridge. Although because of his young age, his cheekbones were not as prominent as Zhu Li's, But it is obviously of Southeast Asian descent, and the facial features are three-dimensional and distinct.

But he is completely different from Zhu Li. His eyes are warm and peaceful, and his appearance is very similar to Zhang Yunxi. When he smiles, he shows a small canine tooth, innocent and innocent, not familiar with the world.

"His Chinese name is Zhang Yuze. My dad named him." Zhang Yunxi said lightly.Zhu Ye nodded. At first, Zhu Li belonged to Zhang's family. Although the wedding was not held in the end, the child should follow his mother's surname.

"Sit down." Facing her son, Zhang Yunxi seemed completely unaware of his father who died young. She smiled and asked Zhu Ye to sit on the sofa, and said to Leo, "Can you put the puzzle away first? My dear, come and accompany him." Let's chat."

"OK." Leo's temperament is very easy-going. He crawled around and put the puzzle together, put on cotton slippers and walked to Zhang Yunxi's side, looking at the two guests curiously. Pass him the car in his hand: "Give it to me to play."

"Oh, thank you." Little Sunflower took it happily, looked it over and over twice, and suddenly remembered something, opened her backpack, took out the contents and put them on the coffee table one by one: snacks, dolls, toys... …

"I'll pick one for you, and I'll give the rest to Xiaoxi." Little Sunflower said generously.

Leo looked at a table of food and play, his eyes lit up, he picked up a violent bear puppet, touched it, picked up an alloy car model, and then looked at a set of puppy rubber stamps.

"Xiaoxi is my mother." Leo rolled his eyes and said seriously, "Mother's is mine." Pointing to everything, "These are all mine!"

"Ah?" Little Sunflower was taken aback for a moment, and Leo quickly jumped up and hugged him and kissed him: "Brother is so kind, thank you brother!"

Such a clever kid... Zhu Ye couldn't help but patted Leo's head, and said, "Take it all." After thinking about it, "You don't need to call him brother, you can just call him Little Sunflower." Although from Zhang Yunxi's side Speaking of them, the two of them are of the same generation, but judging from the blood relationship of the Zhu family, Leo should be Xiaokuihua's cousin.

"It's okay, children don't need to distinguish so clearly." Zhang Yunxi smiled and poured tea for them, and kissed the little Sunflower's face comfortingly: "Okay, thank you for your gift, I like it very much, can I pass it on to Leo? "

"...Okay." Little Sunflower was already an older child after all, and she nodded helplessly in the face of such a soft and cute little brother.

"Put it all up, put it away for me." Leo gathered up all the presents with his chubby arms, and said to Zhang Yunxi, "Lock them in the cabinet, and Peng Peng will steal them!"

"Okay." Zhang Yunxi called the servant to collect the things, and then explained to Zhu Ye, "Peng Peng is his dog, a corgi, half a year younger than him, and has been with him since he was a child."

"Let's go play with the dog!" Children's thinking is divergent. When mentioning the dog, Leo immediately cheered up, and took Xiao Sunflower's hand and said, "Let's go outside to play, the chrysanthemums are blooming, Peng Peng is a good friend!"

"Let them go." Zhang Yunxi said to Zhu Ye, "Let the nanny and the Filipino maid watch, the air here is very good, although it's cold, it doesn't matter if you wear more clothes."

"Go." Zhu Ye rubbed his son's hair, "Take care of Leo."

"Yessir!" Little Sunflower loved dogs the most, and she had never raised a corgi, so she gave Zhu Ye an exaggerated military salute, and ran away with Leo.

Zhang Yunxi followed out, ordered the nanny and servants, and returned to the living room, opened the curtains of the French windows facing the backyard, "They are there, you can see them from here."

Through the glass window, Zhu Ye saw two children running wildly with a short-legged corgi. Although Leo is not big, he has excellent coordination of movements. He is not squeamish when he falls occasionally, and he will immediately laugh Get up and continue playing with the dog.

"This child is so cute." Zhu Ye said sincerely, "Like you, you were just like him when you were young."

"Really?" Zhang Yunxi looked at her son's lively back with a satisfied smile on her face, "Little Sunflower is not like you at all, you used to hold it when you were young, and you have to ask me three times before you take care of me. play with me."

"He's like his father." Zhu Ye didn't deny it. He was really hypocritical when he was a child, not as cheerful as Little Sunflower. Now Little Sunflower is in the top class of kindergarten, and all the children in the school sell him. He is already the first brother in kindergarten.

"You...you and Zhu Mo, I heard that you are married?" Zhang Yunxi saw the platinum ring on his left ring finger, and said regretfully, "I'm sorry I didn't attend your wedding."

"Well, it's okay, we just registered and didn't make any fuss." Zhu Ye replied.In the autumn of the previous year, he and Mo Hu registered their marriage in France. Originally, according to Master Sha's intention, a grand wedding should be held here in Haicheng, but since same-sex marriage is not very recognized in China, neither of the two parties intends to do so. Zhang Yang only informed a small area.

So now they are a legal couple, sharing property through legal means, as well as custody of Little Sunflower.

"Then please accept my blessing for being late." Zhang Yunxi said sincerely, "I'm sorry Brother Ye, I haven't contacted you in the past few years, mainly because... too many things happened, I need time to recover, And the child also needs a pure environment, I don't want him to be involved in those complicated and dirty things."

"I understand and understand you." Zhu Ye patted her hand, "I'm very happy that you can come out and take him so well."

"He is a good boy, completely different from his father." Zhang Yunxi said, her eyes full of mother's pride, "I am very glad that I insisted on giving birth to him, without Leo, I really don't know if I can survive. "

Zhu Ye sighed deeply. After all, she is still a young girl in her early twenties. Many girls at her age are still going to school, falling in love, and traveling carefree. Responsibility, and an almost three-year-old child.

"So, don't you plan to go back? Are you planning to stay here forever?" Zhu Ye asked.

"Let's go back in a few years, when Leo is in primary school." Zhang Yunxi replied, "At that time, the family affairs should have been settled, and I still have my studies. I still want to get my degree." At first, she wanted to get married and have children. , Zhang Yunxi went through the formalities of suspending school. Now that Leo is older, she decided to go back to school.

"Alright." Zhu Ye agreed on this point, paused, and then asked, "Over there in Haicheng, how is your father doing now?"

"It's okay." Zhang Yunxi said.Mr. Zhang was judged by the doctor four years ago that he would not live for two years. Later, he experienced the death of his own son and his son-in-law. Everyone thought that he was about to run out of oil, but he miraculously survived. There is also a trend of living harder and harder.

"You know, my father has always wanted to pass the seat to me, but my uncles have always disagreed." Zhang Yunxi said, "Actually, I don't want to sit in that seat at all, but my elder brother and elder brother are both dead, so I have no choice but to bite the bullet and accept it." Come on. Now my father is in good health, and with the help of my uncles, I can delay it for a few more years."

Zhu Ye nodded silently, she thought for a while, and then said: "I have been trying to figure out a way for the past few years. My second cousin is still alive, and was with that woman in Osaka. It’s not what it used to be, now that he’s the only male in my family, I want to work harder to see if I can get him back, or let Dad accept his woman.”

"This is also a way." Zhu Ye said, Zhang Yunxi's character wanted to steer the precarious ship of the Zhang family. It was really hard work. She was not a queen since she was a child, but a princess.

"Everything will be fine." Zhang Yunxi cheered up and said, "It's really not possible, I just have to bite the bullet and continue. After another ten years, when Leo grows up, I can retire."

"That's right, you're still so young." Zhu Ye sighed, she had a child before she was 20 years old, and Leo finished college, she was not yet [-], and she was still very young.

"That's right, so it's good to have a baby early." Zhang Yunxi blinked and picked up the teacup, "Try my black tea, it's pretty good."

"Okay." Zhu Ye picked up the teacup, took a sip, and the lingering fragrance really filled his mouth.Looking up, outside the window, two children are rolling together on the grass with the corgi dog Pumpeng.

Little Sunflower stroked Peng Peng's head, she was very curious: "It's so cute, so soft and cute!"

"I'm so soft and cute!" After a while, Leo was completely captured by Little Sunflower's first brother temperament, jumping around beside him, "I'm so cute too!"

"Fart!" Where Zhu Ye couldn't see and couldn't hear, Little Sunflower swears unscrupulously, "You're not really cute, you're super cute!"

"Hahaha, I'm super cute hahahaha..." Leo smirked happily, grabbed a bunch of daisies and gave them to Xiaokuihua, "Give it to Nai, Huahuamei!"

"Hey, girls only give flowers, I don't want them." Little Sunflower waved her hand.

The corner of Leo's mouth twitched, his big eyes were ready to cry.

"Okay, okay, watch me do magic tricks for you!" Little Sunflower cried the most shamelessly, and immediately took over the bouquet, spread it out and sorted it out, and after a while, weaved it into a beautiful daisy corolla.

"Here you are!" Little Sunflower said holding the wreath, "This is a crown, wear it and you will be a prince!"

"Wow, Mei Ni!" Le looked at him adoringly, lowered his head piously, asked Xiao Sunflower to put a flower crown on him, and ran to show the babysitter happily, "Does my crown look good? Am I a prince?"

The nanny smiled from ear to ear: "Of course it looks good, Your Royal Highness."

"Hey." Le ran back happily, sat across from Little Sunflower, and carefully pressed the corolla, "Hey, I'm Prince Chrysanthemum now!"

"Fart!" Little Sunflower poked his forehead, "I put your crown on you, so if you are a prince, I am the king!"

"Hey? Isn't the king the prince's father?" Leo was quite logical, "Then I want to be called Nai's father? But my father went to Antarctica for an expedition, and my mother said he would not come back, so is Nai also going to Antarctica? "

"I don't want to be a father, I don't even have girlfriends." Little Sunflower's logic was revived, "Anyway, I am King Sunflower and you are Prince Chrysanthemum, but we are good friends, not father and son. "

"Oh." Leo was confused by him, but he finally figured out one thing, "I know, it's a little sunflower, and from then on I'll be a little chrysanthemum."

"Ahahaha little chrysanthemum, your name is little chrysanthemum hahahaha." Little sunflower thought the name was very funny, and patted Leo's head, "You are so funny."

"Nai is so funny." After all, Leo's Chinese is not good, and he thought it was a compliment, so he patted Xiao Sunflower's head: "We are all funny hahahaha."

Little Sunflower's face twitched, her eyes rolled, and she asked, "When are you coming to Haicheng? I'll take you to my house to play. My dog ​​is really fierce."

"Mom said I won't go back until elementary school." Leo said.

"I'm going to elementary school soon." Little Sunflower said, "Then I'll wait for you at elementary school, so come early."

"Okay." Leo stretched out a fat little finger, "pull the hook."

"Lagougou." Little Sunflower solemnly raised her little finger to him, and then put her thumb back together, "From now on, I will cover you."

"Ok!"

Under the bright sunshine of England, the teasing duo made a vow of innocence.
