After dressing as a villain, I'm with the paranoid male protagonist.

He Nanlou had never seen this kind of wooden box, but he could tell that it should be specially used to store children's deciduous teeth.

Because every groove has a corresponding date.

He Nanlou noticed that there was a line of words written on the cover - "Baby Growth File."

He Nanlou: "..."

"Do you like it? Look, there is a date next to it. In the future, we will put every deciduous tooth you lose in this deciduous tooth box, so that when you grow up, you will see this deciduous tooth box again. Isn't it very meaningful? ?”

He Nanlou: "Where did you get the box?"

This kind of thing should be relatively small, and there is a high probability that it can only be sold online, and there should be no shops in physical stores, especially in small towns.

"Of course it is~~~"

Qiao Annian paused on purpose, and elongated his tone before announcing the answer: "Of course I conjured it up. Is brother Niannian really powerful?"

He Nanlou remained expressionless: Another change. "

Joannian's smile froze.

ha?Where does this make him go?

Qiao Annian said miserably: "This kind of magic consumes a lot of physical energy. It takes a lot of effort for my brother to change this one every year. If it can't be changed, what should I do?"

He Nanlou: "..."

To the extent that he couldn't even believe it when he was six years old.

It should have been ordered in advance, and it has been kept in the schoolbag since then.

Seeing that the little guy didn't speak, Qiao Annian showed that he didn't fully believe it.Hey, it's not good to be too smart, wow, it's not good to fool.

Qiao Annian hurriedly changed the subject, "Brother Niannian will keep this baby tooth box for you, or will Xiaolou keep it by himself?"

He Nanlou took the deciduous tooth box, closed it, and put it into his small backpack.

Qiao Annian smiled smugly, he knew Xiaotuanzi would like this little box.

...

"Are you really awake?"

The door was gently pushed open, Zhang Qianrou walked into the room, smiled softly and said: "Your grandfather said that he heard the voices of the two of you talking downstairs, let me go upstairs to have a look. Both of you behaved very well today. Great, slept for a long time."

Joannian: "..."

Is this the benefit of being a child?

Even sleeping for a long time will be praised?

Qiao Annian asked curiously, "Did Grandpa ask us for something?"

Zhang Qianrou shook her head helplessly, "No, your grandpa wants to wait for you to wake up and let me bring you cakes. He is worried that if you wake up too late, you will not be able to eat dinner after eating the cake. Are you hungry now? Shall I get it for you now?"

"Is the cake downstairs? I'll get it."

"No. Mom goes..."

Halfway through Zhang Qianrou's words, she remembered what her mother said, that she should try to make Niannian do what he could do.

Zhang Qianrou: "Okay. Let's go."

Qiao Annian was surprised to notice Zhang Qianrou's change in attitude.He thought that Zhang Qianrou would tell her mother to get it again.

So fine.

Before Zhang Qianrou took care of the original body too meticulously.

He could understand that Zhang Qianrou was out of guilt and compensation, but in fact, what children want most is the company and respect of their parents, not everything.

What's more, if one party gives too much, often after a long time, the other party will take it for granted, which is not conducive to the maintenance of intimacy.

Qiao Annian went downstairs to get the cake.

Zhang Qianrou looked at He Nanlou with concerns and worries in her eyes, "Xiaolou, did you not sleep well at night?"

He Nanlou looked up at her silently.

Zhang Qianrou explained patiently: "I see that you have been sleeping for a long time during the day these days. Before that, you were at home and rarely saw you taking a nap during the day. Is it because you have changed the environment so you are not used to it?"

He Nanlou: "Get used to it."

Before Zhang Qianrou asked children questions, she almost never received a response.

Zhang Qianrou was a little surprised, she said happily: "Just get used to it. If there is something you are not used to, just tell auntie."

He Nanlou: "Yes."

Qiao Annian stood at the stairs, listening to the conversation between Xiaotuanzi and Zhang Qianrou in the room, the corners of her lips curled up.

Okay, there are questions and answers.

Great progress.

...

Qiao Annian went upstairs with her bag.

He put the cake and drink on the dressing table where he was writing, took one, and handed it to Zhang Qianrou: "Do you want some? I can have one with Xiaolou."

"Mom doesn't eat. Mom is not hungry now and doesn't really want to eat. Besides, this is what grandpa bought for you and Xiaolou. Your grandpa, I'm still waiting for you to tell him whether the cake he bought is good or not. , I'm afraid you two won't like it."

Qiao Annian held up a box of cakes, and said with a firm tone, "The ones my grandpa bought must be delicious!"

Zhang Qianrou couldn't help laughing: "Grandpa must be very happy to hear you say that.

"Hey, when I see grandpa later, I'll tell him that the cake is delicious."

Qiao Annian: "Mom, do you really not want to eat?"

Qiao Annian is now able to call Zhang Qianrou's mother more freely.

He found that he might really be gradually adapting to this identity and the current life.

Zhang Qianrou smiled gratifiedly, "Well, Mom is not hungry. There is only one chair, so it's inconvenient for the two of you to sit? Mom will bring you another stool."

"No, the chair is for Xiaolou, I can just sit on the floor." It's just a cake, don't bother.

"Nonsense, it's so cold on the ground. I'll get you a stool, it's not heavy, just that kind of plastic stool." Zhang Qianrou went out without any explanation.

Not long after, she moved a plastic stool over.

The plastic stool was taller than Qiao Annian's writing chair, so Qiao Annian gave the stool to He Nanlou.

Knowing that Xiaotuanzi likes matcha-flavored cakes the most, Qiao Annian gave the matcha cake to He Nanlou, and asked for the strawberry cake himself.Qiao Annian helped open the cake box, and handed the fork inside to the little guy.

From the corner of the eye, Zhang Qianrou caught a glimpse of Zhang Qianrou standing there, looking at him who seemed hesitant to speak, Qiao Annian didn't rush to open his box of cakes, and asked, "Do you have anything to tell me?"

Zhang Qianrou was taken aback, she acted... so obvious?

Zhang Qianrou opened her mouth, but still shook her head, "It's nothing, it's not important, you eat first..."

Before she finished speaking, the cell phone in Zhang Qianrou's room rang, "Eat first, mom is going to answer the phone."

"Well, good." Qiao Annian responded.

The air conditioner was turned on in the room, so Zhang Qianrou closed the door and went out.

...

Qiao Annian ate the cake with a fork, and saw the little guy picking something out, looked up, and saw the little guy picked out the little pudding pieces embedded in the cake.

Qiao Annian couldn't understand that there was someone in this world who could refuse a soft and delicious pudding!

"Give it to me. Pick out what you don't like and give it to me. I won't pick."

Qiao Annian handed over his cake and motioned for Xiaotuanzi to put the pudding he picked out on the cake.

He Nanlou: "Do you like pudding?"

"I like it. If there is anything you don't like next time, give it to me. Besides pudding, is there anything you don't like?"

He Nanlou: "..."

"There should be pudding in your cake, right? Pick it out and remember to give it to me."

He Nanlou: "..."

He Nanlou ignored Qiao Annian, but put the pudding he picked out of the cake into Qiao Annian's cake.

Joannian is very happy.

Enjoyable.

A piece of cake in a box means that the box looks big, and once the box is removed, the cake inside is only a matter of a few bites.

Qiao Annian ate it fast, and he quickly wiped out more than half of it. I don't know if the taste is different. His piece of cake didn't have much pudding, "Xiaolou, you still have cloth..."

"Hush—" He Nanlou hissed, signaling Qiao Annian not to speak.

"How……"

He Nanlou simply raised his hand to cover Qiao Annian's mouth, and said in a low voice, "Listen—"

He Nanlou was at a loss.

listen?

What are you listening to?

There was no sound in the room, and the voice of Zhang Qianrou talking on the phone next door became very clear.

"I haven't told him yet..."

"No, of course not. I just woke up from a nap every year."

"No. How is that possible?"

"Yes, I promised you and Dad...so I really didn't..."

"Mom, I really didn't mean that..."

Qiao Annian removed Xiao Tuanzi's hand covering his mouth, and He Nanlou let go of it.

Zhang's mother is at home, if you have anything to say, just go upstairs and say it, she won't call Zhang Qianrou.Another one, if the person on the other end of the phone was Zhang's mother, Zhang Qianrou's tone would not be in a hurry to explain, let alone... mixed with faint grievances.

Qiao Annian's hand unconsciously poked the cake.

This call should be from the old lady of the Qiao family.Listening to this conversation, it didn't seem like they called to apologize because they "knocked out" Xiaotuanzi's tooth.

So what is the old lady doing on this call?Wouldn't it be a slap in the face and complain about her son's injustice?

Or, as Father Zhang said, because Qiao Yongjian failed to pick him up, the old lady called and wanted him to go back and live for a while?

"I'll tell Niannian."

"I know, I know..."

"Don't worry, I will—"

The call seemed to end here, as he heard no more voices speaking.

"Are you still going to eat this cake?"

"Eat, why not..."

Qiao Annian subconsciously, halfway through speaking, lowered his head and inadvertently saw the cake that he had poked into a sieve...

He Nanlou: "You have to finish eating, children can't waste food."

Joannian smiled: "Baby, you're right."

Doesn't it just look like you don't have much appetite, as long as it tastes the same in your mouth, it's fine.

...

Qiao Annian thought that Zhang Qianrou would come to the room to look for him after hanging up the phone, but to his surprise, he didn't.

After Qiao Annian finished eating the cake and cleared the table, Zhang Qianrou didn't come over.

Was his guess wrong?The old lady Qiao called, and it has nothing to do with him?

"Please come in."

Zhang Qianrou opened the door and came in, "Niannian..."

Before Zhang Qianrou could speak, Qiao Annian asked, "Did grandma call just now?"

Zhang Qianrou looked stunned: "You... how do you know?"

"You were on the phone in the room just now, and I heard it. What you wanted to say before should have something to do with grandma's call, right? What did grandma say on the phone?"

Zhang Qianrou didn't answer right away, she frowned and paced the room restlessly, as if she didn't know how to speak for a moment.

Qiao Annian suggested, "Why don't you sit down and talk?"

Only then did Zhang Qianrou sit down by the bed.

After a while, she said slowly: "Actually, your grandma called me when you were still sleeping."

"What does she want from you? It's related to me, right?" It should be related to him, and maybe she made a request, otherwise Zhang Qianrou wouldn't be embarrassed.

Zhang Qianrou sighed, "That's right. Your dad, your dad...he..."

Zhang Qianrou paused, "Your father is hospitalized."

Because the conflict happened only in the morning, Zhang Qianrou was unwilling to mention her ex-husband, but she had to mention it at this time.

"You'll be hospitalized. Qiao Yongjian is hospitalized. Why is grandma calling you? You're not a doctor, and you can't see the injury. Professional things should be left to professional people. There are doctors and nurses in the hospital. Don't fuck with it." Heart."

Zhang Qianrou's eyes were astonished: "Niannian, what are you, what are you, why are you calling your father's name directly?"

Joannian: "..."

Oh, Qiao Yongjian is his "father", I really didn't think of it at all.

"it's the same."

Zhang Qianrou looked helpless, how could this be the same?

However, although Niannian hadn't dealt with his father very well before, it was just the first time that he called his father by his first name.

He Nanlou asked the key to the question: "Why is Qiao Yongjian hospitalized?"

Why even the small building...

Qiao Annian was also surprised, "Yeah, why did you go to the hospital? You were alive in the morning, but why did you go to the hospital in the afternoon? Could it be that grandma lied on purpose to trick me back?"

Zhang Qianrou's attention was diverted by Qiao Annian's question: "No",

Zhang Qianrou further explained: "Your grandma loves your father very much, and the old man is superstitious, so she is afraid of crow's mouth or something. It is impossible for her to tell such a lie in order to deceive you to go back. Besides, she asked you to visit your father in the hospital. It's not her who asked you to go. What your grandma said on the phone is that your dad had an accident on the way back from our house. It was raining and the road was slippery, coupled with strong winds, his motorcycle skidded and overturned The fall seems to be quite serious. At that time, the person fell into a coma, and a passer-by called 120..."

"Really? That's really unfortunate." There was no trace of sympathy in his tone.

How could Zhang Qianrou fail to hear the sarcasm in his son's tone, "Niannian, he is your father after all..."

"Well, he's my dad, so I didn't say it was a good fall, a good fall, and a croaking fall." Qiao Annian added, "Although that's what I think in my heart."

Zhang Qianrou didn't know how to respond at all.

Nian Nian was so obedient during this time that she almost forgot that if Nian Nian's mouth wanted to piss people off, it would really block them so that they couldn't say a word.

Zhang Qianrou didn't speak for a while, but it was Qiao Annian who broke the silence: "What did grandma tell you on the phone?"

Zhang Qianrou stared at Qiao Annian: "Your grandma...your grandma wants you to visit him in the hospital."

Qiao Annian nodded: "It should."

"Then wait for the rain to lighten, we..."

"But I'm not going."

Zhang Qianrou's eyes showed astonishment, "Niannian?"

He Nanlou glanced at the young man.

This person is too gentle most of the time, so gentle that it is almost gentle.He seldom saw this person lose his temper, and it was even rarer to see this person... swearing at others.

Joannian...

He really started to be a little curious about what kind of person the real Joannian was under the skin of this 12-year-old boy.

...

"I'm his son. It's only natural to visit his injured father, but I won't go. Just tell my grandma that I will take care of Xiaolou at home. Forget it, you don't need to call grandma, so she will easily hate you, right? I called my grandma myself, anyway, I am her grandson, no matter what, she will definitely not hold grudges against me."

He could tell that night that Mrs. Qiao's attitude towards Zhang Qianrou was not good.So this phone call can only be made by himself, so as not to make trouble for Zhang Qianrou by the old lady in the future.

Qiao Annian went to get the mobile phone beside the bed.

Zhang Qianrou went to grab the phone in Qiao Annian's hand, "Niannian, don't be impulsive. Your grandma is just recovering from a serious illness, but I can't stand your anger."

Qiao Annian didn't even think about putting the old lady in a rage and hospitalizing her, but if he really made this call, then it might not be possible.

"That's fine, then I won't make this call. Please turn off your phone, so grandma won't be able to call in. "

"If I could be a housekeeper, I would have..."

Zhang Qianrou didn't go any further, she just said in a low voice, "In this way, your grandma will only think that I'm the one who stopped you from going to the hospital to see your father."

It can be seen that it's not that Zhang Qianrou has never thought of turning off the phone to hide in peace, but because of Qiao Annian's relationship with the Qiao family, there is really no other way.

"She can think whatever she likes. You are not her daughter-in-law now anyway, so why do you care what grandma thinks, and what does she think of you? Mom, she has nothing to do with you in law Now, you are just strangers who once had a relationship with mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. You can't let her and my father affect your current life anymore. "

Zhang Qianrou bit her lips, "I understand. But it was you, not me, who asked your grandma to go to the hospital to see him. At the beginning, when your grandparents agreed to let me take you away, one of the conditions they put forward was that they could not stop you from now on." You meet your dad..."

Qiao Annian was silent for a moment: "Do you want me to visit him in the hospital?"

Zhang Qianrou hesitated, "I, I don't know... He is your father after all, Niannian, why don't we go to the hospital? Let's go and visit. After the visit, we will leave. Then your grandparents will There's nothing to say, okay?"

Qiao Annian understands that it is impossible to change a person's thoughts, personality, and behavior patterns overnight.

After all, the fact that Qiao Yongjian was the original body's father fettered Zhang Qianrou, making her unable to do too much when facing the Qiao family and Qiao Yongjian.

...

Qiao Annian finally agreed to go to the hospital, and insisted on taking Xiaotuanzi with him.

"Xiaolou is so small, why did you ask Xiaolou to go to the hospital with us?"

Qiao Annian said as a matter of course: "Let Qiao... let my dad apologize to Xiaolou! He knocked out Xiaolou's teeth, so don't you need to apologize to Xiaolou face to face?"

He Nanlou didn't want to go to the hospital, and didn't bother to apologize from someone like Qiao Yongjian: "..."

Zhang Qianrou had a faint headache.

Why does she feel that Niannian is not going to visit a doctor, but rather... to settle accounts with his father.

"Your father is a sick man after all."

"It's okay. The nurses in the hospital are all there. If he has a mood swing or something, there is still time to rescue him."

Zhang Qianrou: "..."

"Also, if you really want me to go to the hospital with you, then you have to listen to me, okay? If you agree to these two conditions, I will go with you to the hospital. "

"Let me listen to you? What do you want to do?"

"You'll know then."

Zhang Qianrou: "..."

Because Qiao Annian insisted on taking He Nanlou to the hospital with him, Zhang Qianrou had no choice but to take the two children out together.As for Qiao Annian's other condition, Zhang Qianrou believed that Niannian would not do anything excessive, so she also agreed.

Zhang's father and Zhang's mother heard that Xiaolou also went with them, so they naturally objected to some extent, but because of He Nanlou's special status, they couldn't force him to stay at home, so they had to let their daughter go out together.

The Zhang family didn't buy a car, and Qianrou asked the driver to go back to Jiangcheng early. She had to take a taxi to go to the hospital.

...

Qiao Yongjian was seriously injured, with varying degrees of fractures and abrasions on his head, shoulders, arms and legs.

When Zhang Qianrou and Qiao Annian went, Qiao Yongjian was changing his medicine, howling could be heard on the whole floor of the inpatient building, one leg was hung, almost every part of his body was wrapped in gauze, his face and lips were pale.

Seeing the three of them coming in, Qiao Yongjian's eyes flickered, especially when he saw He Nanlou, he was obviously uncomfortable for half a second.

"Uncle, aunt..."

Zhang Qianrou put the flower basket and fruit bought in the hospital on the bedside of the hospital bed.

The change in the titles of old man and old lady was strongly requested by Qiao Annian on the way here.

"You and my dad are divorced. You have nothing to do with the Qiao family. Do you understand? What is your surname? Your surname is Zhang, so you can no longer call grandparents and parents, and you can't let them think you are their daughter-in-law. It's a chance for them to pick on you. Besides, you are dating Uncle He now, is it appropriate for you to call my grandparents 'Papa and Mom' again? This is not very appropriate, is it?"

In fact, Zhang Qianrou had thought about changing her name a long time ago, but she was afraid of embarrassment when meeting the two elders, and she was used to it, so she didn't change it.

After Qiao Annian's lobbying, she thought about it, and felt that it was really inappropriate to call the two elders "Parents" now, so before entering the ward, she reminded herself again and again that she must remember the address.

Zhang Qianrou originally thought that she would not get used to the sudden change of address, or that it was the same as before, and it was easy for a while, but she didn't expect that she actually changed it all at once.And she found that once she called "Uncle" and "Aunt", she felt inexplicably relaxed.It was as if the stone that had weighed her down was suddenly removed from her chest.

The old lady called her ex-daughter-in-law just after one o'clock in the afternoon, and she has been waiting and waiting in the hospital since then, waiting for Qianrou to bring Niannian over to visit Yongjian.Okay, it's three or four o'clock, and there is no movement from Qianrou's side, so the old lady called again.

The old lady had accumulated dissatisfaction all afternoon. When she saw Zhang Qianrou bringing the child over, she naturally looked unhappy. She originally wanted to speak a few words, but when she heard Zhang Qianrou's "aunt" and "uncle", the old lady suddenly felt a little nervous. Can't react.

"You, what are you calling me and your dad?"
