Yunyun

Yuan Chaonan was cleaning the small kitchen of the kindergarten after school, when he turned around suddenly, a pink little pig's head was raised in front of his eyes.

Looking sideways, the child behind him lowered his head, shyly hiding behind the piggy bank, without saying a word, but raised his hands as high as possible, standing here as if holding a precious treasure.

"Fanfan, this is?"

Fanfan showed his blushing little face, "This, this is my private money..."

"and then?"

Fanfan swallowed, coughed, and imitated the tone of the TV series, "Although it's not much, I hope I can help you."

After not being able to hear the answer from above his head for a long time, Fanfan secretly raised his eyes and saw Yuan Chaonan covering his mouth and smiling lightly, his eyes were full of indescribable tenderness and relief.

In fact, Fanfan couldn't understand those eyes. He just knew that her sister, the cook, didn't accept her kindness. Beating his chest and berating himself for his bad idea.

"Sorry, I was the one who was abrupt." Of course, this sentence was also learned from idol dramas. She didn't know what it meant to be abrupt, but she knew that it was usually said at this time.

Yuan Chaonan rubbed Fanfan's head, took her piggy bank and stuffed it into her schoolbag, and led her out while asking, "Is mom picking it up today?"

"Well, here we come!"

Fanfan pointed to Ji Yibei who was waiting for her at the school gate, while looking at Yuan Chaonan reluctantly.

"Sister, my private..."

"Hush." ​​Yuan Chaonan knelt down and put his finger on Fanfan's small mouth, "Mom is here~"

Fanfan kept silent, although this private money was saved from the pocket money given by his mother on weekdays, but if the name "private money" has practical meaning, this should be his little secret.

Ji Yibei took Fanfan's hand tenderly, and his eyes were full of hope, "Mr. Yuan, I am causing you trouble. How is Fanfan's performance recently?"

Yuan Chaonan looked at the shy expression of the little girl in front of him, stroked the bangs on her forehead, blinked at her inadvertently, and then said: "Fanfan has been good and obedient recently~ Have a good meal~ "

After chatting for a few words, Fanfan slightly nodded and bowed, and then abruptly choked back the words, "Ah, goodbye, auntie."

Just as Yuan Chaonan was about to go back, he found a familiar figure at the school gate. Although he was wearing sunglasses, his unscrupulous eyes came out somehow, and fell directly on Yuan Chaonan.

"Would you like a face?"

Yuan Chaonan thought that the embarrassing ending of that day made her wonder how to greet her today, but Qiao Yi's smirk made her feel that she was thinking too much.

Things like hot spots are not in her control.

"Fanfan's mother came to pick her up today."

"I'm not here to pick up the kids." Qiao Yi took off his sunglasses and put them in his mouth jokingly, "I'm here to treat someone to dinner."

"I...I recently lost weight and skipped dinner."

Yuan Chaonan's words are also mixed with truth and falsehood. It is true that he does not eat dinner often, but it is not for weight loss.

Qiao Yi listened and thought inexplicably in her heart, her uncontrollable gaze fell on Yuan Chaonan's chest, and within a second, she put the sunglasses back on again.

"Losing weight? Not good..." Qiao Yi, who put on his sunglasses back, glanced down again, but he knew very well in his heart that this lady likes this size.

"Well, lose weight." Yuan Chaonan didn't want to deal with her too much, and he who was not good at communicating would always be silenced by her and then paced. After saying this sentence, he turned around and walked away.

Qiao Yi hadn't turned his mind around yet. Seeing that the person in front of him had already walked two meters away, he hurriedly followed in small steps, "Ah, hey... it's already autumn, so why lose weight? It's winter when you talk Hey~ Winter is the season to store fat, have you not considered how you feel in winter when you lose weight now? You don’t want to lose face in winter!”

"Ah hello..." Qiao Yi stopped at the door of the kindergarten staff dormitory, and watched Yuan Chaonan go upstairs.

"If you don't want to eat today, then I'll ask you tomorrow."

Ji Yibei looked at Fanfan thoughtfully, "You've been doing well recently, huh?"

"Huh?" Fanfan was taken aback, looking at his mother in a daze.

"Can you eat carrots?"

Ji Yibei looked down at Fanfan who was eating mixed rice spoonful by spoonful. He didn't pick out the vegetables in it like before, especially the diced carrots that were cut into very fine pieces.

"The chef... Auntie said that children will grow up beautiful if they are not picky eaters."

"You listen to auntie very much." When Ji Yibei said this, she pursed her lips slightly, put down the tableware for eating, and rested her chin on one hand to look at this daughter who was a little too spoiled by her since she was a child, so she was talking about eating. Shang knew clearly that it was wrong to be picky eaters, but he couldn't force her to accept things she didn't like, so she had to spend a lot of thought on asking someone to cook.

But now it seems that these thoughts of mine are no match for a lie from their kindergarten aunt, so it is a bit tasteful to question.

"If I had been obedient, my aunt might not have cried in secret."

"Ok?"

Fanfan remembers that one day she was thinking about how to get rid of the carrots in the kindergarten lunch, when she suddenly had a flash of inspiration, she put those unpalatable pieces in her mouth, and told the teacher to go to the bathroom.

Just after lunch time, everyone was in the dining room, and the toilet was empty. Fanfan felt that this was the best time to commit a crime. He was about to go to the cubicle to spit out the things in his mouth when he heard a voice coming from inside. Low sobs.

When the crying gradually stopped, Fanfan opened the small door of the cubicle a little bit, and the red eyes of the chef's sister were reflected in the mirror.

Yuan Chaonan washed his face, propped his hands weakly on the edge of the sink, said to be weak but supported the weight of his whole body, his knuckles were a little red, and he grabbed the countertop, just like her current situation.Originally the most marginal person in this family, but she has to rely on these hands to support the weight of the whole family, but she has no choice. She is the daughter of this family who cannot exist without dedication, and is a worthless money-making machine.

She is like a cactus in the desert. The only water on her body is barely enough to maintain her normal needs, but she still has to be eaten by dying people. They survived but blamed you, why are you a cactus? , instead of watermelon and peaches.

The cactus said that I grew up in the desert. I should be a cactus. I can only live like this. I can’t ask why I grew up in the desert.

Qiao Yi had been thinking about how to persuade Yuan Chaonan to go to dinner with her today before leaving get off work. If she failed again today, she would have no face in the circle. Except for the one time in her life when she faced Aunt Ji, she would not allow fish to appear again. Don't take the bait.

However, to her surprise, when she stood up from the work desk and turned off the audio equipment on the counter, she saw Yuan Chaonan standing there neatly dressed outside the large glass window.

Qiao Yi pointed to the service suspension sign in front of the window and slowly said "off work", making sure that Yuan Chaonan outside the window saw his mouth shape.

Yuan Chaonan nodded slightly, with some hesitation in his eyes, but he kept staring at Qiao Yi, which gradually raised doubts in her heart, surpassing her desire to conquer.

"Are you... are you here to wait for me to get off work?" Qiao Yi still couldn't believe it, and began to question after changing clothes.

"Yeah." Yuan Chaonan seemed to have made a lot of determination, "Today, let's have a meal together, I invite you."

"I won't lose weight today, huh?" Qiao Yi stuffed the food into his mouth, and he didn't forget to tease the other person, "Actually, your figure is just right, why are you so thin, it's boring! Oh I'm not saying it's boring, I'm saying it's not good to lose weight, it's not healthy, um, come and eat meat."

Yuan Chaonan ate carelessly, halfway through the meal, she put down the chopsticks in her hand and took a sip of water.

"Joe also."

This was the first time she called her by her name, and Qiao Yi didn't even specifically introduce herself, so she felt a little uncomfortable for a moment, but thinking about it, she should know.

"I want to ask you something."

"Hey... let me tell you~" Qiao Yi also put down her chopsticks, folded her arms on the table in front of her chest, and leaned forward, "So there is something you want from me~ Tell me, let me tell you I'll see if it's a Hongmen Banquet."

Yuan Chaonan ignored her banter and intentionally blinking peachy eyes, and looked down at the table. With determination, he raised his head and looked into Qiao Yi's eyes, "Say, am I eligible to apply for a loan?"

Qiao Yi moved his mouth, smacked his lips, and leaned back casually.

"What are you doing, want to buy a house?"

"No, it's not...it's just that it's difficult to turn over funds recently, I, I think..."

"Funds?" Qiao Yi caught the key word and raised his eyebrows, "Could it be that you want to give the money from the loan to your brother to start a company?"

Qiao also pretended to speak briskly, especially when it came to sending the word, he specially elongated the sound.

Without waiting for Yuan Chaonan's answer, she just returned to the previous state of staring at the table, and nodded heavily for a long time. "

"Tch——" Qiao Yi rolled his eyes and turned his head away, and looked at the person opposite him intently for a moment, and said with a sincere attitude: "Little sister, I didn't say you, you were born with a brain Huh? How much do you have to worry about your family, whether your unworthy brother is missing an arm or a leg, and you have to chase after him to make up for it if you do something yourself. I don’t think he can tell What did you do with your money, and what kind of shit company did you talk about..."

After Qiao Yi said the words, she was afraid for a while, fearing that she would hurt her by saying something serious again, so she secretly glanced at the opposite side, Yuan Chaonan just listened quietly, without any intention of refuting, which made Qiao Yi's educational attitude even better.

"I said you, you can't just live for your family, can you? You have to think more about yourself. It's not selfish. People come to this world to live happily for themselves. What are you doing like this? , Have you ever seriously lived for yourself in the past [-] years? Nope!" Qiao Yi said excitedly, and after asking and answering herself, she still felt that it was not enough, so she continued, "Little sister, let's be more aggressive. Don't let your family dictate, you are an independent and living individual, you have to pursue what you want! OK?"

Yuan Chaonan lowered his eyebrows, and it took him a long time to say, "So, is there a way to get a loan?"

Qiao Yi was speechless for a while, slapped the table angrily picked up the bag and went out, and when he reached the gate, he turned back to the counter to pay the bill.

Yuan Chaonan sat alone at the dining table, staring at the leftovers on the table in a daze. The tea in the cup bottomed out, and scattered tea leaves settled at the bottom of the cup, heavy and withered.

I don't know how much time has passed, but I just feel that the people around me have changed tables one after another, the restaurant has changed from noisy to deserted, and gradually lost the smell of food, replaced by the smell of disinfectant from rags.

The light in front of him was blocked, Yuan Chaonan raised his eyes to look.

Qiao Yi changed her clothes and the makeup on her face, but she didn't change her preaching tone: "Go somewhere with me, and I'll help you."

Chen'er didn't know how many times she held her phone in a daze, she moved her finger at the message "I passed your friend verification request, now we can start chatting", and deleted it as if giving up.

In the wechat group, Qiao Yi's voice pushes were displayed one after another, disrupting her mood, and her original plan was blown away, she hesitated for a long time and pressed delete again and again.

He Youning's mother called again, she was perfunctory as usual, and dragged her wechat chat page to find Song Qingyan.

"Are you free on the weekend? Come out and talk about it. My mother forced me to go on a blind date again. I have to run away."

Song Qingyan saw WeChat, and just about to click in to reply, when she saw a pop-up message from an unfamiliar WeChat friend.

Shen Zhou: Are you free on the weekend?Want to come to your studio to talk about a new event.
