two-way love

"Teacher Yang, Uncle Li, drink tea." Wu Yi brought the tea.

"Xiao Yi, come here!" Li Cheng opened a box and showed him, "I didn't prepare anything for the first time, Uncle Li, just a pair of shoes. I asked Lao Wu about your size, and I will try it on later. It doesn't fit—"

"Huh? Uncle Li..."

Li Cheng interrupted him: "That's it! Tell me if the size is wrong, I'll put it here for you first."

Before Wu Yi could stop it, Li Cheng's meeting gift had already been delivered, and he didn't know how to deal with it, and Li Cheng didn't seem to plan to talk about it anymore, so Wu Yi had to force himself to change the topic and focus on other things.He asked the little girl sitting on the sofa looking around, "Xi, Xixi, would you like a drink?"

"I want to! Brother, I want to drink orange juice!" Xixi sat on the sofa dangling her two slender legs and raised her hands excitedly.

"No!" Yang Wan reprimanded with a downcast face, and said to Wu Yi with a calm expression, "Yiyi, just pour her a glass of boiled water."

The little girl's eyes were wide open, then she frowned, took a deep breath, took a big breath in her mouth, stretched her cheeks round, and "hummed" hard from her small nose - really wronged again And cute, Wu Yi was amused by her.Then she took out a piece of paper from her coat pocket, raised her chin defiantly, and showed it to Yang Wan with straight arms: "Ren-sex-card!-huh!"

"..." Yang Wan was stunned for a few seconds, his expression changed a few times, he stared at the man who had turned his head from the other side of the sofa, and paused every word, "Li, Cheng, when did you give it to her?"

"My wife, please be tolerant." Li Cheng nervously hugged his daughter by the shoulders and put it in his arms. "Little girl, it's normal to like sweet things! I told Brother Lin to order a freshly squeezed one, not to mix the essence with water!"

Yang Wan gritted his teeth: "Do you think I'm worried about food additives? Your daughter is less than six years old now, and she already has three cavities. If you don't control it, all the permanent teeth will be decayed before they grow out. She will experience 60 years old directly." Are you old?"

Li Cheng: "..."

"Mom's words don't count!" Xixi yelled, "The 'willful card' agreed before can allow Xixi to do things you disagree with!"

Yang Wan suppressed her anger, she pointed in the direction of the dining table and asked with a smile: "Xixi, did you see the dim sum on the table over there? Uncle Lin and Uncle Wu specially prepared it for us—but you only have a 'willfulness card' , orange juice and dessert can only choose one.”

Xixi stared at Dim Sum over there with straight eyes: "Me! Me! Me!—"

Yang Wan thought with satisfaction: Tch, I don't know my child yet!Just ask again later.

Xixi immediately took out another piece of paper from another pocket: "I, I still have one!—"

Yang Wan: "..."

Yang Wan: "Li! Success!"

Li Cheng: "Wife, wife, wife! Calm down! This... Come to Old Wu's house, you, you calm down, isn't this a joke for children... Go back and clean up girl Xi, don't you think hehehe... "

Yang Wan: "I'll deal with you when I go back!"

Just at this moment, the doorbell rang again.

Wu Yi withdrew from the family battlefield over there and hurried to open the door. This time there were also a family of three. The woman holding the sleeping child took the initiative to squat down and reached out to touch Wu Yi's head, then smiled and took a small cloth bag in her hand. Show him the box, motioning him to reach out to pick it up: "Come, we meet for the first time, a little gift."

The woman's movements were soft and friendly, but the words in her words felt alienated and difficult to pronounce. Wu Yi was a little uncomfortable, and responded in a stumbling manner: "Uh, first, first meeting..."

When the two entered the door, they were discovered by Wu Chenfang. He turned around and said a few words to Lin An, handed over the work at hand, and came out to greet the guests from the house.

Li Cheng and Yang Wan are too familiar, especially Yang Wan is still Wu Yi's current teacher, so there is no need to introduce him.This is the first time Wu Yi has met Mr. Wang's family.

Wu Chenfang asked Wu Yi to stand next to him, and introduced him: "Wu Yi, this is Uncle Wang, you can call this auntie Aunt Huizi, or Aunt Wang—after she married Uncle Wang, she is now with Uncle Wang. Last name. That little brother who is sleeping is Xiaoguang."

Shimizu finally became a naturalized citizen before the due date. Although the ID card contained Chinese characters translated from Japanese, she was very concerned about the matter of "taking her husband's surname". Taking a Chinese name, now Shimizu prefers to be called "Wang Qinghui" rather than "Shimizu Keiko".

After Wu Yi said hello one by one, he asked curiously and carefully: "But... Teacher Yang's surname is Yang." After she married Uncle Li, she didn't have Uncle Li's surname...

"This is the custom of Aunt Huizi's country," Wu Chenfang explained, "Aunt Huizi is a foreigner."

foreigners? !Live foreigners!Wu Yi opened his eyes wide suddenly, looking at Qing Shui full of novelty.

Qing Shui frowned slightly, and retorted with a smile: "Mr. Wu, I have now become a Chinese citizen!"

Wu Chenfang smiled: "Of course I know. Isn't it because the child has doubts? I'll explain it to him."

Lin An poked his head out from the kitchen: "Is everyone here? The last soup will have to wait for a while."

Wu Chenfang replied: "Not yet, Yihong and the others haven't come yet."

"What's the matter with them? Isn't this the weekend?" Lin An took off his apron and came out, "I'll give them a call."

Lin An had just touched the phone when there was movement at the door.

He put down his phone and went to the door: "I'll open the door, you all sit and chat first!"

"You guys," Lin An opened the door, and Song Yihong, Xiao Mingyue and Liu Yu were standing at the door, so he stopped restraining himself, "Why is it so late? Huh? Everyone is waiting for you! Think about it, and tell me the reason for being late !"

Song Yihong raised his hands in front of his chest and surrendered: "Sister-in-law, it's not me! You ask your editor——"

Xiao Mingyue hugged a paper bag, closed her eyes and looked at death like home: "I confess! Lin Guo! I prepared a gift for the young master and caused everyone to be blocked twice on the road!"

Lin An: "Twice?"

Xiao Mingyue: "Once in line for the checkout, once in a traffic jam."

Lin An stepped sideways to give up his position: "Okay, come in, I want to see what you bought after spending so much time."

Song Yihong entered the door and sighed: "Sister-in-law, speaking of it, this is the second time I have visited your new home in such a long time except for the day you moved in! I feel quite popular."

"Aren't you so busy these days? It's normal not to waste time wandering around," Lin An waved at Wu Yi, "Wu Yi, come here and say hello to your big brother."

"Brother, brother?" Song Yihong held Lin An's arm and pointed to himself, "Sister-in-law, shouldn't I be from uncle's generation?"

Lin An: "What's your relationship with Brother Fang?"

Song Yihong: "A half-brother?"

Lin An: "Is there any more?"

Song Yihong thought for a while: "...the kind of godfather that my dad forced me to recognize when he was drunk, and the one who videotaped him."

Lin An patted him on the shoulder: "Isn't this generation right?"

Song Yihong: "..."

Lin An embraced Wu Yi, put his hands behind his back, and gently pushed him in front of Song Yihong: "Wu Yi, this is your elder brother Yihong, and your fathers are the closest relatives within the scope of no blood relationship."

When Song Yihong heard the last sentence, regardless of the messy seniority, he readily agreed: "Yes, yes, yes, from now on, Wu Yi, you will be my own brother. If you have any difficulties and dare not look for your father, come to me. My brother will always be your brother." The strongest backing!"

Wu Yi: "..."

Song Yihong: "I blame my brother for not being well prepared today. In this way, I will write to you my steam account. After you have a computer, you can use my account to play games."

"Go, go, Wu Yi is still young," Lin An waved his hand, "You have taught me well!" He looked at Xiao Mingyue, "Mingyue, come, let me see what you brought?"

Xiao Mingyue took a step forward and let go of her arms, revealing the four big characters of "Xinhua Wenxuan" printed on the paper bag she was holding in her arms: "I, I specifically asked my high school classmate who went to the Teachers College to give her I made a list of 'Must-Read Masterpieces for Elementary and Middle School Students', I picked out ten books, and bought two composition collections, as well as "Arithmetic Exercises Collection" and "Learning Words Everyday"..."

She raised the paper bag in front of Wu Yi with both hands: "Hi, young master, this is for you!"

Wu Yi didn't expect it to be this, and he hesitated when he reached out to take it: "Thank you, thank you sister..."

Song Yihong: "..."

Song Yihong: "Xiao Mingyue, you are such a gifted gifter! I thought giving children practice questions was just a joke, but today I saw the truth."

Xiao Mingyue panicked: "Ah? Yes, is it that bad?"

"No," Wu Yi hugged the paper bag and smiled, "I like books very much, thank you sister."

"Mr. Lin," Liu Yu took out the gift he brought, "My sister said that children like to eat snacks. I think 'Suhuangzhai' is quite popular, and the signboard is also handmade and healthy. I only have one. I don’t know if it can suit the young master’s taste.”

It was the first time for Wu Yi to receive so many gifts from "elders". He was at a loss holding books and snack boxes, and then he only knew how to thank him inwardly and vaguely: "Thank you, thank you..."

Lin An patted his head: "Put the things in the room first."

Wu Yi nodded obediently, and went upstairs with his things in his arms.

"Does Xixi eat snacks? Sweet cakes, peach cakes, and puff biscuits..."

"I want it! I want it! Thank you, Uncle Lin!"

"No - Li Xixi, will you still eat later!"

"Sister-in-law, you keep busy. We know we need to find a place to sit down. Liu Yu is here! Come on, come on! Sit next to me!"

……

The laughter in the living room spread to the second floor. Wu Yi put down the gift he received, stood at the door of the bedroom, and took a deep breath—he had never been in such an environment with so many adults, and he didn't know how to deal with such enthusiasm. Although the guests knew that they had no malicious intentions and were very friendly and easy to get along with, they were still anxious and anxious, and subconsciously wanted to escape.

Or... I'll stay here for a while and go down when I eat?This thought came to his mind, and he shook his head immediately, vetoing it: No... Uncle Lin and Uncle Wu still have things to do, I... I am also the "host", how can I leave the guests alone in the living room...

He cheered himself up, and finally decided to step out the door and go downstairs.

Before he had reached the stairs at the end of the hallway, he heard a doorbell mingled with knocking and shouting.

Also, is there anyone else?Wu Yi paused, and the suppressed retreat rose again.

Then came Lin An's voice: "Huh? How did I remember that everyone was here?...Eh, no way?!"

"Aiden!—"

"Godmother!—"

"Little Zhu?! Mia?! Why are you here? Where's Zhu Hai?"

"Didn't I say I'm coming? Hai won't come today, so I stopped him! It's so annoying to control me every day!"

"Aren't you too courageous? You dare to run around like this in just a few months? Come in, come in! You are not alone now... When did the plane arrive? Why don't you tell me when it lands? ah!"

Wu Yi carefully leaned over to look down, and Lin An led in two blond-haired people, one was a pregnant woman holding her belly with one hand, and the other was a little girl with a twist.

His eyes widened suddenly - foreigners!

Compared with Shimizu, who looks like an oriental, Julian and Mia, who are blond and have English names, are obviously more in line with Wu Yi's inherent impression of foreigners.

Julian felt the line of sight on the second floor very keenly, looked straight at the line of sight, and caught Wu Yi squarely: "Hi!~"

Wu Yi was caught unexpectedly, so he had no choice but to say hello: "Ha, ha, hello..."

"It's okay, you don't need English, Chinese is fine, come down quickly, little cutie, and let Auntie see you!" Julian waved at him.

Julian came to visit across the country in July of her pregnancy. She herself was very casual. Lin An watched her boldly stand up, walk and bend over. He was so scared that he was covered in cold sweat. A crucian carp came back to make soup for her, and bought some cardboard colored thread for the children to play with.

The adults can chat about work and current affairs, and a few children soon play together. Wu Yi buys various Chinese and Western snacks back and forth in small quantities, so that he will not be too idle too quickly.

Xixi and Mia are playing with the flower rope, and the two-year-old Xiaoguang just sat beside them and watched them obediently after waking up.Yang Wan looked at Wu Yi who was going to pour water to boil, and called her daughter in a low voice: "Xixi, Xixi, come here! Mom has something to tell you!"

Xixi trotted over holding the string: "What?"

"Mom has a task for you. If you finish it, I won't punish you for copying ancient poems when you go home today."

Not counting the one in Julian's belly, there was really no room for lunch, so the adults discussed letting the children share a table alone.

Xiaoguang couldn't eat by himself yet, but Qingshui handed him over to Wu Yi without hesitation.Fortunately, Wu Yi also has experience in this kind of thing during his years in the orphanage, and he is also handy in taking care of it.

Mia and Xixi seemed to agree, when Wu Yi was feeding Xiaoguang, they put the best color and shape on the plate into Wu Yi's bowl.After Wu Yi fed Xiaoguang, he turned around and found that his bowl had been piled up to half a small peak.

Wu Yi: "..."

He hurriedly stopped Xixi from stuffing the tenderloin into his bowl: "No need, no need, Xixi, eat it yourself, I have enough here..."

"Brother, eat quickly!" Xixi looked at Wu Yi harmlessly, ignored his stop, and put the chopsticks on the top of the "hill".

Wu Yi: "Okay, okay, okay."

Usually, Wu Yi would take the initiative to help clean up after eating, but this time he put down the bowl and stood up, the two girls who had finished eating a long time ago but sat obediently in their seats suddenly got up, ran to him, and grabbed Wu Yi one by one. With one wrist, Yi said in unison: "Brother, shall we go play?"

Wu Yi looked at them helplessly: "Uh, but..."

"Wu Yi," Lin An called while sitting at the main table, "Don't clean up, we'll come later, and you can play with your younger siblings for a while."

"Ah good."

Lin An said: "Take them to the third floor. You can enter those rooms, but don't go to the small garden on the top floor. Be careful and take care of them."

"Yeah." Wu Yi picked up Xiaoguang, and then said to the little girls on both sides, "Let's go up."

Lin An watched the few of them slowly go upstairs, with a worried expression on his face, but his heart was still half-sinking, and there was nowhere to go.

Yang Wan, who was drinking soup, knew what he was thinking by seeing his expression, put down the bowl and persuaded: "Don't worry, they are not naughty children, just throw them together and chat for a few minutes and they will become good friends, won't they?" something happened."

Lin An hesitated and said, "Is this no problem?"

"Brother An, Yiyi doesn't go out all day long and doesn't have many friends. That's not okay!" Yang Wan smiled wryly, "He used to meet so many children in the orphanage, even if he didn't like to talk, he wouldn't be alone. Now in such a big family, when you go to work, you don’t even have a sound. Brother An, do you think it’s okay to be yourself? It’s obvious after I’ve been in contact with you for a while... Yiyi is really lonely, I’m afraid he will In this way, I will go to school directly in the second half of the year, but I don’t know how to make friends. Now let a few children play with him, just to relax.”

Wu Chenfang lowered his eyes: "It's true that we didn't think carefully about this, and it was too hasty. Thanks to Yang Wan for being careful, thank you for caring about Wu Yi."

Yang Wan smiled: "What Angkor said... I am a teacher, and I should care about the physical and mental health of my students."

It was already an hour later when everyone's chatting place shifted from the dining table to the living room. Lin An packed a plate of various snacks and sent them to the children on the third floor.

Lin An followed the sound and found him in a carpeted study.Xixi was drawing on the ground, with colored pens and cardboard scattered around. Wu Yi held up a book of "Ancient Chinese Mythology", and whispered the content to Mia who was listening to his story. Xiaoguang was already curled up in his arms. fell asleep.

Looking at the words in the book, Wu Yi read fluently, neither fast nor slow, and he was very relaxed, which was much more natural than his usual rigid appearance.Even though he saw Lin An coming in with snacks, he wasn't too surprised, and even called "Uncle Lin" on his own initiative.

After coming down from upstairs, Yang Wan asked him how the situation was, Lin An smiled reassuringly: "As expected of a teacher."
