Self-investment

"Mumu?" Jian Ling didn't wait for Luo Yimu's answer for a long time. She looked at her probingly, and saw her mouth corners were drawn down into a sharp line. She was stunned for a second, and then asked herself as if to save herself. He smiled to himself, then turned his head and said to the baby: "If you don't speak, you agree. You see, even my Mumu knows that the baby is not to blame for what happened this time, so stop crying, okay?"

Her voice was originally very nice, and she bowed her head and whispered so softly, which has a soothing power. The baby twitched, raised his hand to wipe his tears, and wiped his big face in a mess. Jane wanted to laugh and moved He stretched his arms, took a breath, and frowned.

Luo Yimu's figure moved slightly, as if he wanted to hug her, but he didn't go forward after all.

The baby asked hoarsely, "It hurts, doesn't it?"

"Yeah." Jian Ling frowned and smiled, "My arm hurts, so baby don't cry, okay?" She half-wrapped the baby in her arms with her left arm, "When the baby cries, my sister will My heart hurts so much, and the baby is also reluctant to let her sister's arm hurt and hurt, right?"

The baby is a very sensible child. Hearing what Jian Ling said, he lowered his head in shame, obediently wiped away his tears, grinned and forced a smile at Jian Ling.

Because Yu Qinghan wanted to register for Jian Ling, she split up with them as soon as she entered the hospital, and then they got separated. When she arrived at the burn department, she found out that Jian Ling had finished her treatment and had just left, so she went back to the hospital non-stop. They rushed to the exit of the hospital. Fortunately, they hadn't left when they got to the entrance of the hospital. The baby was being held by Jian Ling with his left hand, smiling hard and ugly.

Yu Qinghan quickly walked over to touch the baby's head, deliberately gloating, "Usually I tell you to listen to the elders more, but you ignore it, now it's too late to regret it? Little girl, do you know what this is called?"

The baby rubbed his red nose, and said obediently: "Eat what you eat and gain wisdom."

Yu Qinghan smiled in surprise, "Oh brat, you're quite knowledgeable."

The little girl felt very uncomfortable, it's okay for Yu Qinghan, an aunt, to be disconsolate, but instead she laughed at her, the baby was so upset that he didn't want to talk to her, he waved away the palm she was touching on top of his head, and snorted.

Even Jian Ling smiled and helped the baby out, "Yu Qinghan, are you your aunt? The child knows that he is wrong, so if you don't say a few words, will you lose a piece of meat?"

Yu Qinghan snorted, "Knowing what a mistake is? You have to make sure you learn your lesson and don't do it again next time. That is to say, the pot of oil has been left for a long time this time, and it has cooled a lot, so she didn't make a big mistake. In case It’s really hot oil just out of the pan, can you just say that you know it’s wrong and forget it like this?” She looked at the baby’s head in silence for a long time before smiling wryly, “Young man, there are some mistakes on the road of life that you can’t make. , otherwise the intestines will be green with regret and there will be no place to buy regret medicine."

Although she said this to the baby, she glanced at Xiao Tong inadvertently after she finished speaking.

"I already understand this truth." The baby lowered his head and said sullenly.

Xiao Tong didn't understand the meaning of Yu Qinghan's words, there was no reaction on his face, he just apologized to Jian Ling in earnest on behalf of the baby, and said that Jian Ling's medical expenses, as well as those in Shangrong She covered all the expenses, and offered to make financial compensation to Jian Ling, hoping that Jian Ling would just open her mouth.

"Hey, you kicked me out of your store yesterday, but today you are so enthusiastic about me and your attitude changes so quickly, I'm really not used to it." Jian Ling said jokingly, with a hint of ridicule.

Xiao Tong looked ashamed: "I'm sorry." Her attitude towards Jian Ling yesterday was indeed not very good, mainly because of Jian Ling's out-of-shape appearance, Xiao Tong thought she was a ruffian who deliberately came to find fault. , I finally know that she is not a bad person.

"Ha, if I can get an apology from my idol in my life, I'm considered complete." Jian Ling became serious again, "Mr. Xiao, just for the sake of my injury, you agreed to my request? Look at me It's so pitiful." She pursed her mouth to show her misery, and deliberately hugged her right arm and howled, "Ah, it hurts."

A troubled look appeared on Xiao Tong's face.

Yu Qinghan took a look, and smiled to make a relief, "Leave everything else aside, are you hungry now? Let's find a place to eat first?"

Jian Ling slapped his forehead and thought about it, and yelled, "It's the baby's birthday today! Look at the trouble, it's such a special day, and it made our little birthday star cry. It's probably impossible to cook at home. , Is there anything the baby wants to eat in particular? Hmm?"

"I can do it." The baby is no longer interested in birthdays because of his own troubles.

"Let's eat Huaiyang cuisine." Luo Yimu, who had been silent all this time, suggested, and then said to Jian Ling: "Is the injury healed, don't eat so greasy, eat something lighter."

"Okay, then eat Huaiyang cuisine." Yu Qinghan replied, "But our small county is not as prosperous as your Jinling, and there is only one Huaiyang cuisine restaurant in the town, so don't complain too much if it's not authentic. "

Jian Ling laughed and said, "I'm so hungry right now, so I don't care if it's authentic or not? Even if you give me a bowl of white rice and nothing else, I can eat three mouthfuls of it."

"Oh, is that an exaggeration?"

"..."

Yu Qinghan and Xiao Tong drove a car and arrived at the parking lot. According to the arrangement when they came, Jian Ling and Luo Yimu went first in Yu Qinghan's car, and Xiao Tong followed behind with the baby.

When passing by the newsstand opposite the hospital, Luo Yimu suddenly asked Yu Qinghan to stop, she got out of the car and bought a box of milk, and asked Jian Ling to fill it up first.

"Just one box?" Jian Ling frowned, "Mumu, you are a good person, do you want to buy another box for the baby?" She smiled and hooked Yimu's hand, "Mumu, you are the best, come on!" Go back quickly."

Luo Yimu glanced at her, didn't say anything, bought another box according to her instructions, and handed it to Bao Bao who was sitting behind Xiao Tong's co-pilot.

"Thank you, sister." The baby flinched, took Luo Yimu's milk, and said timidly.

Although Luo Yimu never said a bad word about the baby from the beginning to the end, the baby was still sensitive to Luo Yimu's hostility.

The corner of Luo Yimu's mouth twitched, his eyes were complicated, he nodded slightly, and returned to Yu Qinghan's car.

"Have you delivered?" Jian Ling asked.

"Ah."

Jian Ling missed to kiss Luo Yimu's side face, and said with a smile, "It really is my dear Mumu."

Luo Yimu lowered his eyes and waited for the car to drive several hundred meters before he couldn't help but say, "She calls me sister."

"Who?" Jian Ling didn't respond, "Baby?"

Luo Yimu nodded.

Jane burst out laughing.

Not only Jian Ling, but even Yu Qinghan who was driving laughed out loud.

Having said that, according to Luo Yimu's age, being called "sister" by a seven or eight-year-old girl is really a bit too old.

Jian Ling smiled for a while, then quietly climbed up Luo Yimu's waist with his left hand from behind.

Luo Yimu opened his shoulders, making it easier for her to press half of her body tightly against it.

Jian Ling raised her head and stared at Luo Yimu's beautiful earlobes. Luo Yimu's ears were actually pierced, and they were pierced in the earlobe very formally, but she had never seen her wearing any earrings. Shang Jianling has never seen Luo Yimu wear any jewelry, not only earrings, but also bracelets, rings, necklaces and the like.

In fact, Luo Yimu is very suitable for wearing jewelry. She has a fair neck that is more elegant than a swan. If she wears a delicate necklace, the pendant happens to be stuck between the well-shaped collarbones...

beautiful.

Beautiful and seductive.

Just thinking about it, Jian Ling was already itching to grind his teeth.

"Do you think the baby shouldn't be called your sister?" Jian Ling tilted the corner of her mouth, and opened her mouth to grab Luo Yimu's earlobe.

"What do you think?" Luo Yimu asked with his arms around her.

"That's right." Jian Ling smiled vaguely, put it close to her ear, and jokingly said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "What's your name, sister? It should be called sister-in-law..."

Luo Yimu also laughed when he heard it, and Jian Ling finally relaxed his mood.

She was very restrained in joy, a low laughing hum leaked from her throat, and a slight vibration in her chest, which could only be heard and felt by the briefing that was tightly attached to her.

This kind of laughter, no matter how many times she listened to it, would always make Jane's ears itch and her heart numb, and the corners of her lips curled up unconsciously, and her whole body was softened into her arms.

Yu Qinghan kept his eyes on his nose, his nose and his heart, and concentrated on driving, turning a deaf ear to what happened in the back seat.

Tool man, haha.When she thought of Xiao Tong, she was still in the mood to laugh at herself.

……

Yu Qinghan's reminder is correct, the only Huaiyang restaurant in the town is indeed not very authentic.Locals in Shangrong County prefer heavy-tasting dishes and love spicy food, so although this restaurant focuses on Huaiyang cuisine, it has also been improved according to the tastes of the locals. That's right, it's quite good for dinner, Jian Ling just served the food, finished a bowl of rice in a few mouthfuls, and had to add more.

Others don't have such a good appetite, the baby is not in the mood when he makes a mistake, Xiao Tong has a small appetite, Yu Qinghan despises this shop as unauthentic, and just politely stretches out his chopsticks with Jian Ling, only Luo Yimu He took care of Jian Ling's meals, added food and vegetables for her, and ate a bowl of rice himself.

When the meal was almost finished, Yu Qinghan asked: "Do you want to play in Shangrong for a few more days?"

"Leave early tomorrow morning." Luo Yimu replied for Jian Ling.

"So fast? Why don't you play for two more days? There is nothing else in Shangrong County, the natural scenery is amazing, it would be a pity not to see more." Yu Qinghan said.

"I planned to stay for a while longer, but I am like this now." Jian Ling raised his right arm and glanced at Xiao Tong again, "It seems that the purpose of coming here can't be achieved, it's better to go back early, I I still have to prepare for the exam in October."

Yu Qinghan understood Xiao Tong's temper, and he couldn't pull back the nine cows he had decided on, so he nodded to express his understanding, and asked again: "Then where are you staying tonight? Are you still staying in the hotel? You have burns on your hands now, it's easy Infection, living in a hotel is inconvenient everywhere, why not stay with me?"

"No need?" Jian Ling didn't care, "It's only for one night, is it that important?"

"Don't be afraid of [-], but be afraid of just in case."

"It's better to live with me." Xiao Tong said, "I have a free side sleeper at my place, the mattress and pillows should be clean, just go back and make a bed."

Xiao Tong understands Yu Qinghan's personality, as far as her house is concerned, it might be a mess if she lives in it herself, so why would she let guests live in it.

Faced with their warm invitation, Jian Ling lost his mind and turned to look at Luo Yimu, "Mumu, what do you think should be done?"

After some consideration, Luo Yimu felt that what Yu Qinghan said was quite reasonable, so he nodded and thanked Xiao Tong.

That's it, after dinner, Yu Qinghan sent Luo Yimu and Jian Ling back to the hotel to pack their luggage, and set off to Xiao Tong's house.

The meal in the restaurant was considered dinner, so dinner was omitted. When they arrived at Xiao Tong's house, Xiao Tong had already cleaned up the kitchen, and the half-processed ingredients were sorted and put into the refrigerator. Once there was a stranger staying here, so I specially bought two sets of clean toiletries, pajamas and slippers, and put them in the clean and tidy guest room. After all, today was the baby’s birthday, so Xiao Tong baked another cake and wiped enough The sweet thick cream is also filled with the baby's favorite fruit.

Xiao Tong usually strictly limits the baby's sugar intake, considering today's special situation, he made an exception to satisfy her craving for sweets.

In the evening, Yu Qinghan also stayed to sing happy birthday to the baby together, watched her make a wish and blow out candles, and several of them ate the cake carefully made by Xiao Tong.

Jian Ling is also considered to be a person who likes to eat sweets. The first bite of the cake felt too sweet, so he bit the bullet and said it was delicious, but what he thought was that Yu Qinghan said before that Xiao Tong didn't like it. Have a sweet tooth?

But Jian Ling watched Xiao Tong nest on the sofa eating cake, and the moment she squeezed the spoon full of cream into her mouth, the flash of happiness and satisfaction in her eyes couldn't be faked.

Does this mean you don't like sweets?He is clearly addicted to sweets!

Should.

Jian Ling bit her spoon and thought, even if she doesn't know what her sweetheart likes, how dare she say that she likes her?It really deserves Yu Qinghan not to be able to catch up with Xiao Tong.
