Self-reliance

"No nonsense," Ji Qin was so angry that he couldn't speak, "What were you talking about just now?"

"She asked me to go up there." Zhou Zui was still aggrieved.

"You can't say anything else,"

"I can't think of anything else..." Zhou Zui said, "I can think of this."

"..."

"If she wants to be bold, I will say so."

"You..." Ji Qin felt a headache, "What's in your head?"

"In my head," Zhou Zui thought for a while, "it's all about you,"

"..." Ji Qin felt that he was playing the piano with a cow.

"...?"

"In short," Ji Qin took a deep breath, "don't make fun of me in the future."

"I'm not joking..."

Ji Qin glanced at him.

Zhou Zui had no choice but to say again: "...Oh."

In the afternoon, Ji Qin took care of a lot of things. Although Ji Meng was there, the work was still piled up like a mountain.

Then, at night, Zhou Zui and Ji Qin went to pick up Xinxin.

This time I saw Zhou Zui's cousin again, and Zhou Zui ate tofu again.

It seems that Xinxin didn't have any troubles in the second day of kindergarten.He learned some knowledge and played a few games.After all, Xinxin is already five years old, so she doesn't hate going to kindergarten that much, and, because of some previous events, she looks forward to it very much.

In the kindergarten, everything was fine for Xinxin, the only thing he was not used to was that he didn't take a nap before, and he didn't develop this habit in his adoptive parents' house.But this kindergarten has a rule that all the children have to rest at noon every day, so Xinxin always tosses and turns, but has to lie on the bed, with nothing to do, and always becomes anxious, the more anxious, the more sleepy It doesn't work, it's like ants on a hot pot, very depressed.

At that time, the teacher told Ji Qin: "This is very important, because children's physical and mental strength do not allow them to sleep and remain excited throughout the day. They need to relax and relieve, so that the body's skills can be rested, so that In a virtuous circle, naps are for better development of intelligence, growth and development."

"Then what should I do?" Ji Qin asked bluntly.

"We should also cultivate the habit of napping at home on weekends." The teacher added, "For example, some environmental cues first. Close the curtains, tell Xinxin to go to bed, walk quietly, talk softly, it is best to paste the moon and stars on the wall. Then coax him to cover the quilt and use the correct posture. If he can't sleep, create a peaceful atmosphere for him, tell him a story, let him calm down, and not be so excited... Wait until Xinxin is sleepy When you feel like it, read him a nursery rhyme to help him fall asleep, it will have a hypnotic effect."

"What nursery rhyme?"

"For example..." the teacher began to say, "like this: children, come to sleep. Little hands, put them away. Little eyes, close them well. Sleep peacefully and well."

"..."

"Remember?"

"Okay, I know." Ji Qin said, "I'll let him take a nap on weekends too."

"right."

——So, on weekends, Ji Qin wanted to coax Xinxin to take a nap.

For Xinxin Jiqin is willing to do anything.

Ji Qin followed the teacher's instructions, drew the curtains to block the sunlight, and stretched out his hand to point to the bed: "Xinxin, lie down and sleep immediately."

Xinxin flinched in fright.

Ji Qin looked up at the pattern on the wall: the moon and the stars, absolutely right, so children should feel sleepy after seeing it.

After putting Xinxin on the bed, Ji Qin covered him with the quilt, and tucked the corners of the quilt in a gentle and gentle manner, because that's all he could do.

"sleep."

"Oh……"

Then Ji Qin began to tell the story.

Ji Qin has always liked fairy tales, so this is not a problem.

"What do you want to hear?" Ji Qin asked.

"Hmm...um..." Xinxin said, "It seems that there is a "Snow White"..."

"Snow White?" Ji Qin nodded, "Yes."

Ji Qin probably still remembered the plot of this story.

Xinxin was looking forward to it, because in the kindergarten, other children mentioned this fairy tale, which was told by the teacher, but Xinxin had never been to kindergarten before, "Once upon a time there was a girl named Snow White."

Xinxin opened her eyes and listened.

"Snow White's mother died, and the king remarried later. The queen asked a mirror every day, who is the most beautiful person in the world. The mirror said, Snow White. The queen got angry, called a hunter, and said , you go and kill Snow White for me."

"..."

"Snow White is not dead, and the seven dwarfs took her in. The queen asked the magic mirror again, and found that Snow White was not dead, so she wanted to kill her herself, thinking that I can't kill you?"

"..."

"The queen sold Snow White clothes, then tied the straps tight, strangled her so hard, strangled her there."

"..." Xinxin sounded a little scared.

"But Snow White was saved by the dwarves. The queen knew through the magic mirror that she was still breathing, so she made another poisonous comb. Snow White used it to comb her hair. The poison broke out, and Snow White died again."

"I..." Xinxin whispered, "I don't want to hear any more..."

Ji Qin frowned.

But the teacher said to tell a story——

Thinking of this, Ji Qin continued: "But she is really lucky, and crawled back from the gate of hell. The third time, the queen gave her a poisoned apple, and Snow White fell into a pool of blood. This time she finally died completely. See through."

"..." Xinxin covered her head with a quilt.

Ji Qin said that the quilt was torn off: "What's wrong?"

In the back, Snow White was resurrected again, and then the queen danced with her dancing shoes reddened by fire, went crazy and died.

"I..." Xinxin said again, "I don't want to hear any more..."

"Oh." Ji Qin asked, "Are you sleepy?"

In order not to listen to the story, Xinxin had no choice but to nod.

"That's good." Ji Qin said, "I'll read you nursery rhymes, and you'll go to bed soon."

"..."

As he said that, Ji Qin said in his usual cold voice: "Little friend, come to sleep. Little hands, put them away. Little eyes, close them well..."

Before it was over, Ji Qin heard a voice saying, "Stop reading..."

Looking up, it was Zhou Zui.

"Get out." Ji Qin was very impatient.

Zhou Zui sighed: "Xinxin will never be able to fall asleep with you like this, even if he falls asleep, he will have nightmares..."

"Oh?" Ji Qin said, "You know?"

"I'll do it." Zhou Zui walked into the room.

"..."

Zhou Zui looked up at the wall, and asked very curiously, "Why is there a Pakistani flag hanging here?"

"Huh?" Ji Qin followed his gaze, "The teacher said he wanted to hang a star and a moon."

"But..." Zhou Zui said again, "The background is green."

"Almost?" Ji Qin frowned.

"..." It's obviously a lot worse.

"This is the only one sold in the mall that can be hung and has patterns such as stars and moons."

"You can print one." Zhou Zui said again, "The paper in the office is not big enough, but there are some special places that can print that size."

"I think they're all the same." Ji Qin said stiffly.

Zhou Zui looked at Ji Qin, and felt that Ji Qin didn't understand this at all.However, buying the green flag of Pakistan instead of the big red star and moon flag of Turkey is not bad, right?

"Let me tell Xinxin a story." Zhou Zui said.

Ji Qin didn't answer.

Zhou Zui talked about "The Princess on the Glass Mountain".

Ji Qin had read this fairy tale.

The old farmer had three sons, and, as in all fairy tales, the eldest, the second, somehow hated the third.He still has a whole field, but the hay always disappears overnight.The eldest and the second child tried to guard, but they were both scared by the shock and loud noise and ran back home.In the third year, before the youngest son set off, the two older brothers laughed at him in every possible way, but he still went, and found that the one grazing was a fine horse, so he hid the horse. For three consecutive years, he found three. The strange thing is that those horses There was no food and no starvation.The king of this country wanted to marry a daughter, so he announced that whoever could ride a horse up the high, steep and smooth glass mountain, and take the apple from the princess sitting on the top of the mountain, would have the princess and the whole kingdom.People from all over the world came to challenge, but no one could even take a step up. The story didn't tell how the princess got up, maybe she had other ways.The old farmer's youngest son rode the picked horse for the first time and then turned the horse's head for the first third of the way. The princess looked at her and threw an apple into his boot.The next day he went up two-thirds of the way. The princess saw that this guy was not bad, so she threw another apple. Go Apple and go.Later, the king searched for anyone who had apples, and when he arrived at the farmer's house, the eldest and the second child didn't have any and satirized the third child. At this time, the third child took out three apples from his bosom, married the princess and became the king.Just thinking about that scene where you pull an apple out of your pocket feels silly and effervescent.Moreover, I really don't understand why we need to get three apples. If different people get them separately, is it necessary to split the princess?

But if it was Zhou Zui, it was a bit different. He even corrected some things, not only Xinxin listened to it, but even Ji Qin was fascinated.

When Xin Xin finally fell asleep, Zhou Zui repeated Ji Qin's nursery rhyme.

His voice was gentle, and Xinxin quickly fell asleep.

"..."

Zhou Zui turned his head and thought for a while, then suddenly said: "I really envy the princes and princesses in fairy tales..."

"Oh?"

"The two of them always fell in love at first sight..."

Ji Qin sneered: "There are not many people who fall in love with you at first sight?"

I remembered those nympho again.

"I don't care about those people." Zhou Zui said again, "My relationship is a bit tricky."

"Oh?"

"He doesn't know I like him."

"who is it?"

"You know it."

"Then go ahead." Ji Qin stood up after speaking.

For no reason, Ji Qin suddenly didn't want to continue this topic, and he didn't understand why he felt irritable.

……

That's it, usually, Ji Qin and Zhou Zui go to the company during the day, pick Xinxin back after get off work, and then try to make him happy, and the three of them will go to sleep at night.Xinxin is still in touch with her adoptive parents, and Ji Qin also understands that he should not be too tough.

Life seems to be on the right track, and everything seems to be going in the right direction.

Until one Saturday, nothing changed.

That scourge of Zhou Zui would actually get sick.

When he returned to Ji Qin's place after playing tennis with his friends, Ji Qin and Xinxin were taking a nap.

The air conditioner is on in the room because it is a little hot.Although it was only June, it was a very sunny day.

Ji Qin is different in every way.Basically, he would only turn on the central air conditioner in the living room, because Ji Qin hated the sound very much, even if he couldn't do it at all, so the bedroom air conditioner was rarely turned on, and only the cold air from the living room circulated into the house.But Ji Qin's house is very big, so when he rests in summer, the temperature in the living room is always set very low.

After Zhou Zui came back, he went into the bathroom to take a shower. After opening it, he found that there was no hot water, no matter how much water was released, it was all ice.

"The hot water system is faulty..." Zhou Zui thought that he would need to report for repairs later, but he didn't care, and took a cold bath directly.

As soon as he came out, he felt quite cold, like an ice cellar, and his whole body was not warm at all.

At this time, the central air conditioner should be turned off.

But Ji Qin and Xin Xin were still taking a nap, which might make them feel uncomfortable, so Zhou Zui didn't do anything.

After playing the game for several hours just now, Zhou Zui felt a little tired, so he slept on the sofa wrapped in a blanket.

After dinner that day, Zhou Zui developed a fever.

"...Zhou Zui."

"...Huh?" Zhou Zui was weak.

Ji Qin couldn't bear to see the other party nestled on the sofa, "Go upstairs and lie down."

He didn't know that he also had times when he couldn't bear it.

"Your bedroom?"

"Of course it's not Xinxin's."

Zhou Zui smiled dazedly: "Really?"

"Let's go after a short rest." Ji Qin said, "I will use it at night."

"Okay." Zhou Zui's cheeks are slightly red now, his eyes are blurred, and his appearance is very attractive.

——As a result, when it was time to go to sleep, Ji Qin regretted it immensely.

Zhou Zui seemed to be sleeping soundly there.

It seems a bit inhumane to kick a sick patient out of his dream and let him sleep on an air mattress.

Zhou Zui looked very obedient, he leaned against the wall lightly and didn't take up too much space.

Ji Qin snorted, then ignored him, turned off the light and lay down.
