Confess you in early winter

Considering that the children are already hungry, the woman did not prepare any complicated dishes. Two home-cooked stir-fries were served with a roasted pork with potatoes, and a tomato and egg soup.

It only took half an hour from when Su Ci walked into the kitchen to when all the dishes were placed on the table.

Yan Chu and Su Ci sat and ate facing each other. The woman served her a bowl of soup. When she saw her stretching out her left hand, she raised her chin: "Change your right hand."

The girl was stunned when she heard the words, and glanced at the fingertips that were still tied with Band-Aids. When she understood, she couldn't hold back the corner of her mouth, put down her chopsticks kindly, and stretched out her right hand to take the small bowl of soup from Su Ci.

It was as if honey had been wiped in Yan Chu's heart, even her smile was tinged with sweetness: "Thank you."

The woman smiled slightly in response to the thank you.

The child’s hands were injured and he couldn’t get wet. After dinner, he helped put the dishes into the kitchen. Su Ci washed the dishes, and she stood by and chatted with the woman, talking about the stories in the novel she read today, and which parts she thought were well written , which places are unsatisfactory.

Yan Chu leaned against the cooking table, talking non-stop with a small mouth, while the woman smiled and listened to her, and answered a few sentences from time to time. The atmosphere was harmonious, with a touch of warmth.

The woman dried the dishes and heard a faint knock on the door outside, so she handed over the task of collecting the tableware to Yan Chu, and went to the entrance to open the door by herself.

When Yan Chu came out of the kitchen, he happened to see Su Ci walking into the living room with a large cardboard box, and put it on the ground beside the coffee table.

"What is this?" Yan Chu walked over and asked curiously.

Su Ci opened the carton and showed the contents to the girl.

There are dozens of books neatly packed inside.

"Ah." Yan Chu exclaimed, took out a book randomly from the cardboard box, opened the title page, saw his own name, and asked in surprise, "It's all mine?"

The woman patted the cardboard box, nodded and smiled: "Yes, I sent someone to the school and brought back your textbooks and exercise books."

Yan Chu pursed his lips and flipped through the textbooks in silence, his eyes suddenly moistened.

She was both shocked and moved, and at the same time, there were indescribably complicated emotions flowing in her chest. She should have said thank you to Su Ci, but the words were stuck in her throat. Can't spit out.

She has never shown the blow to her from dropping out of school, but this matter is not easy for her, even if she can see it, she will still feel lost in some inadvertent moments.

The woman carefully noticed her emotions, so she patted the sofa beside her, motioning for the little girl to sit beside her.

Without putting down the textbook in Yan Chu's hand, he sat down beside Su Ci, rubbed his eyes, and whispered, "Thank you, Sister Su."

Su Ci looked at her sideways, saw the girl's reddish eyes, then patted her shoulder comfortingly, and said to her in a very gentle tone: "I have something, I want to discuss with you."

"Yes." Yan Chu agreed, "Sister Su, tell me."

The woman took out another textbook from the cardboard box, flipped through it casually, and at the same time said softly: "I plan to hire a tutor for you or go to a nearby school to borrow for you."

As soon as the words fell, Yan Chu suddenly raised his head with a shocked expression on his face.

Soon, she suppressed these emotions again, shook her head and said, "No need, sister Su."

The girl's mood fluctuated violently, and she was about to cry, her voice choked up: "You let me borrow, and I have already spent money on food and clothing. You don't need to pay for my tuition for my education. Since I leave home, I should learn to be independent. I don't want to go to school anymore, and when I stabilize, I will go out to work."

Jumping from one safe haven to another gentle town, she always needs to be supported by others. Not only is she not financially independent, but her personality is not mature.

She didn't want to be like this, eat Su Ci's, use Su Ci's, and then ask Su Ci to pay her tuition and miscellaneous fees. A woman is not luring a wolf into the house to raise a suitor with an evil heart, but is being her mother.

"I can study on my own. After two years, I will take the college entrance examination as a social candidate. Maybe I won't be able to achieve as impressive achievements as I did in school, but this will be enough." Yan Chu thought very clearly, women are willing to provide her with Help, but she can't take Su Ci's gentleness and kindness for granted.

The girl has a clear attitude, and Su Ci is not surprised by her choice.

She stretched out a hand, gently rubbed the top of Yan Chu's hair, and gently advised: "Don't rush to make a decision, just listen to me first."

Yan Chu lowered his head and didn't respond, but he didn't refute either.

"You are not yet an adult. Although you are temporarily suspended from school, you are still a student strictly speaking." Su Ci spoke slowly and softly, "A child of your age may have more than one way to survive, but reading is the easiest choice among many. kind of."

"You are very smart and have unique conditions. You can become a talent by self-study, but with the guidance of a teacher, the time you spend in confusion and hesitation will be greatly reduced. Although your education is only a stepping stone, but your innate conditions are excellent. It is thicker than others, and it is naturally easier to knock on the door."

"I'm a businessman who pays attention to cost and profit. My spending on you can also be regarded as an investment. I don't need to say which one is more valuable if you study for high school with all your heart or part-time self-study for the college entrance examination."

"I hope you will continue to study, study hard, become a better version of yourself, and don't give up the campus life that should belong to you because of the ups and downs in the process of growing up."

"Of course, I respect your choice. If after careful consideration, you still feel that leaving school is the most correct path for you at the moment, I will not continue to persuade you."

The woman gently hugged the girl's shoulders, using this shallow hug to give her strength, and said the last sentence: "I didn't force you to go to school, but I just hope you follow your true inner thoughts and don't wrong yourself , and don’t leave any regrets.”

After finishing speaking, she stood up: "You and I can make room for the bookcase in the study room. Whether you go to school or not, you still have to continue reading. Put these textbooks in the study room first."

According to Yan Chu's words, she followed Su Cici to tidy up the study, and she was very silent during the whole process, worrying about what she would do in the future.

Su Ci didn't bother her, and put all those textbooks into the bookcase.

The woman glanced at the free space in the study, and decided to add another desk next to her desk, right next to the bookcase, so that it would be convenient for Yan Chu to study in the study.

After finishing all this, Su Ci received two work emails, stayed in the study and turned on the computer to continue dealing with work matters, while Yan Chu went back to lying on his side and stayed alone for a while, waiting for her to recover from the trance, and then check the time , It's already almost eleven o'clock.

She took a change of clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower. After washing, the tip of her hair was stained with water. She came out of the bathroom while wiping her hair with her head down. full of.

The girl was out of shape, and subconsciously stepped back to apologize when she bumped into someone, but Su Ci stepped on the edge of the slippers under her feet, and she was careless when she stepped back, her feet got caught, and she fell backwards on her back.

With sharp eyesight and quick hands, Su Ci grabbed her and wrapped his arms around the little girl in his arms to prevent her from falling.

But in this hug, the girl's delicate body was only pressed against the woman's body through a thin T-shirt.

The distance between the two was extremely close. Yan Chu had just taken a shower, and the fragrance of the shower gel was fresh and pleasant, entangled the woman's mouth and nose.

The little girl was held by the woman in a daze, and forgot to break free. It was Su Ci who took the initiative to let go of her after she stood firmly, took a small step back, and told her in the usual tone: "Be careful."

After Su Ci finished speaking, he walked away from her, walked into the bathroom and closed the door.

I don't know if it was her illusion, but the woman passed by her just now, and her steps seemed to be faster than usual.

Yan Chu returned to the room, got into the bed and was still thinking about what Su Ci said to her, tossing and turning it hard to fall asleep.

Suddenly there was a thunder outside the window, which seemed to explode directly by the window, making Yan Chu's ears ringing.

She trembled in fright, and retracted her head into the bed.

Ever since he was framed by someone in the capital, it was normal for Yan Chu to fall asleep at night, especially in thunderstorms, which always brought back thrilling memories of that day, making Yan Chu even more frightened.

Unfortunately, the thunder kept going, one higher than the other, and it still poured into Yan Chu's ears endlessly through a layer of bedding.

Su Ci wanted to remind Yan Chu to close the window, and knocked on her door when passing by, but the sound made her tremble violently, her teeth chattering non-stop.

There was no answer when she knocked on the door, the woman thought that Yan Chu had fallen asleep, so she put down her hands and turned to leave.

Before she took two steps, the door of the room lying on her side behind her suddenly opened. Yan Chu stood at the door with her arms folded and called "Sister Su".

Su Ci turned his head, and was surprised to find that the girl's face was pale and her expression was extremely depressed.

Yan Chu was still wearing the T-shirt she wore after taking a shower, and she looked in a very bad condition.

Su Ci thought that what he said earlier had caused Yan Chu great trouble, and couldn't help but feel guilty, and walked over to her and asked her, "Xiao Chu, what's the matter? Can't sleep?"

The little girl pursed her lips and said nothing, until the woman walked to the door, she suddenly took a step forward and plunged into the woman's arms.

"Sister Su." Yan Chu hugged Su Ci's waist tightly, buried in the woman's shoulder and said in a low voice, "I'm very scared when there's thunder outside."

This kind of situation happened once before, it was the night when Yan Chu had an accident in the capital and lived in a small villa with Su Ci.

Su Ci understood what was going on, and felt sad for a while.

At the beginning, the incident was apparently resolved, but the psychological shadow left on the girl has not been completely eliminated.

"Don't be afraid." The woman gently stroked the back of Yan Chu's head, her chin resting on the top of her hair.

Feeling that the girl in his arms was wearing thin clothes, she didn't know whether she was shivering slightly from fear or cold, Su Ci hugged her tightly: "Go to the master bedroom, I will sleep with you tonight."

After she finished speaking, the little girl in her arms tightened her arms again and hugged her tightly.

Su Ci took the girl's hand back to the room, rolled Yan Chu's whole body into the bed, and patted her on the shoulder to lull her to sleep.

Yan Chu opened his eyes, staring straight at the gentle woman in front of him.

A warm yellow bedside lamp was turned on in the room. Su Ci was wearing a silk nightdress with suspenders, her curvy shoulders were exposed outside the quilt. In the dim vision, she could vaguely see her delicately shaped collarbone under her neck, and her right side Two moles juxtaposed on the collarbone close to the shoulder socket.

"Don't you want to sleep?" Su Ci asked her.

The girl met the woman's gaze: "I listen to Sister Su and go back to school."

After finishing speaking, she buried half of her face in the bed and closed her eyes to sleep.
