Zuo Nanjin was not over 30 years old, so the adoption procedure was more troublesome than expected.

Tomorrow's plane, she didn't have time to stay to get these odds and ends.

But her financial resources are not for display.

In addition to paying the necessary adoption fees to welfare agencies, I also wrote a check in my own name to make a large donation. With the help of my friends and the principal here, the adoption became very simple.

Due to the delay on the way, it is estimated that it will be late at night in S city.

Zuo Nanjin made a few phone calls, woke up Zuo Xiyao who was sleeping in the car, and brought her to the school cafeteria for a meal.

The food in the cafeteria was simple, and Zuo Xiyao ate reluctantly.

After she heard that Zuo Nanjin was going to adopt Ji Yu, she was not very friendly to her, at first she just ignored her.

Later, seeing her unaffected appearance, she poked her again and spoke to her.

It is English.

She deliberately speaks very fast, and she has that kind of unclear and coherent American pronunciation. It is not like her that people who have learned English from primary school will not be able to understand what she said for a while.

Ji Yu looked innocent, "What did you say?"

""

Zuo Xiyao lowered her head and fiddled with her fingers in silence for a few seconds, with a smile on her face, but her tone was not kind, "You still want to go abroad with my aunt at your level of English."

"Zuo Xiyao."

Zuo Nanjin called her by her full name, Zuo Xiyao shrank her neck, and immediately became quiet.He lowered his head and continued to play with his fingers.

Zuo Nanjin didn't speak either.

She was reminded by her.

Because many of the children of friends around her went abroad since they were young, Zuo Nanjin forgot about the language issue for a while.

Not everyone goes to international schools from Kindergarten.

"It's okay, I'm not going tomorrow," Zuo Nanjin looked at Ji Yu who seemed a little uneasy, hugged her, and said comfortingly, "English is not difficult, we can learn it slowly."

Ji Yu's eyes flickered, and he nodded obediently, "Yes."

English

Driving back to S City, it was already late at night.

Zuo Nanjin first sent Zuo Xiyao home to her brother, then stood in front of the car, made two hours of phone calls, and finished the meeting.

The day's work is not over yet.

In a few hours, she had to rush to the airport again.

"Pass me the water, it's on the right," Zuo Nanjin got into the car, turned his head to look at the bottle of mineral water, and explained to Ji Yu, "I'm going to work tomorrow, so I'll send you to my parents temporarily." Home, they'll take care of you."

Zuo Nanjin bowed her head and fastened her seat belt.

Take the water she offers.

She needs to apply for a passport and visa, and she needs to find a reliable teacher for short-term effective oral English tutoring. Zuo Nanjin, who has been working abroad all year round, is not as good as her leader's father's connections in this regard.

So all entrusted to the family.

"Are you afraid?" Zuo Nanjin raised her eyebrows and asked Ji Yu who was looking calm.

When she wanted to open the water, she realized that the bottle cap had been unscrewed.

This child is only ten years old, but he can be so careful and considerate.

"What am I afraid of?"

Ji Yuyang smiled, his soft voice was as sweet as dimples, "Sister's parents, I haven't seen them yet, but I like them very much."

"Little sycophant." Zuo Nanjin stretched out his hand to pinch her cheeks, and rolled his eyes with a smile.

Obviously she usually acts so withdrawn and lonely in school, but this little girl is only eloquent in front of her, and she is also extremely sweet.

She also had a personality that was very indifferent to children before, but she fell in love with her inexplicably.

It's like a fate in a previous life.

Ji Yu pulled her hand down, and rubbed his cheek against the back of her hand.Like a pet.

Smiling so that her eyes were crescent-shaped, she said earnestly and innocently, "I know my sister is busy, and I don't need you to spend a lot of time to take care of me. I just need a little time to care about me once in a while."

"I grew up quickly."

Zuo Nanjin smiled lightly, noncommittal to her words, restarted the car, chatted and asked, "What are you doing in a hurry to grow up?"

Ji Yu said without thinking, "When I grow up, I can take care of my sister."

The tone is very natural.

""

Zuo Nanjin turned her head to look at her, looked at her childish and clear eyes, and felt an indescribable feeling in her heart, as if she suddenly understood the feeling of maternal love.

She paused complicatedly, and said, "You can call me auntie in the future."

Ji Yu ""

"Why, aren't you happy?"

Seeing her silent for a long time, Zuo Nanjin couldn't help being a little amused.

Ji Yu's long eyelashes blinked, with obvious reluctance on his face, he muttered, "I only heard that Auntie wants to be called Sister, but I have never heard that Sister is called Auntie."

""

The car turns the corner.

When Zuo Nanjin stopped at the intersection and waited for the red light, she calculated the age gap between them and said with a sigh, "I am 16 years older than you. I should be called Auntie, but I was wrong before."

Ji Yu was silent for a long time, pouted and whispered, "I don't think it's a mistake."

"The teacher said, you have to know your mistakes before you can correct them."

"So I don't need to change it."

Persuaded by her well-founded logic, Zuo Nanjin silently raised her lips and smiled.Say no more.

""

Zuo Nanjin called her father about entrusting Ji Yu to the family.

When she got home, her father hadn't had time to figure out how to tell Zuo's mother.

"Go to bed early."

Zuo's mother was about to go to bed, so she talked to Zuo's father who was staying in the study.When he turned to leave, he was called.

"Hey, don't sleep, Nan Nan will be back later."

"Why is she coming here so late?" Mother Zuo frowned, her tone was a little disgusted, but her words were full of concern, "Why did you tell me that you just got off the plane? Did she eat?"

""

Papa Zuo paused for a while, and only managed to say, "You're not busy."

"What's not busy, come back at night, don't prepare delicious food for the children"

Zuo Ma was about to go to the kitchen, when she heard the sound of the key opening the door, she hurriedly greeted her, "Hey, it doesn't count as jet lag? I'm going home this late to cause trouble, and if I don't even take the special products, I'll throw you out."

Zuo Nanjin just opened the door when she heard the last sentence.

"specialty"

"I brought a local back with me."

left mother ""

Quickly holding the teacup and following Father Zuo who came out, "Sit first, sit first."

Zuo's mother twitched her temples after hearing Zuo Nanjin's words, "You didn't even call me in advance for such a big matter"

Zuo Nanjin, "Dad."

Father Zuo hurriedly said, "Forget it, forget it, what are you talking about after the children are brought back?"

Father Zuo unscrewed the cup, drank the tea, and slurped back the tea leaves indiscriminately.

He picked up a book in his hand and opened it to read two pages, "Hurry up and take the children to recognize the family, and tidy up the room, it's getting late. If there is anything else, we can talk about it tomorrow morning."

The words say so.

Zuo Nanjin went to the airport the same night after Ji Yu settled down.

""

Zuo Nanjin came back again, more than a month later.

She took the key to open the door and saw her father's slippers in the entrance, knowing that he was not at home.

"I am back."

Zuo Nanjin turned around and went to the kitchen to find her mother.

She saw a beautiful fruit plate that had just been cut in half next to it. She was just thirsty, so she picked up a toothpick and inserted a piece of cantaloupe that was not too big or too small.

Mother Zuo knocked her hand off.

"There is fruit in the refrigerator, you have to eat it yourself, it's for children."

After she cut the last piece of fruit, she cut the watermelon flesh into a roughly square shape with a long, thin fruit knife before transferring it to a plate.

"It's so beautiful that it can be taken to a restaurant, Mom."

Zuo Nanjin raised her eyebrows while eating cantaloupe, "Where is the child?"

"The child is going to school, the child. You can't throw it away for me."

"What to study"

"Your father arranged for her to study in junior high school directly. Although she has found a tutor to tutor her in English, she still needs to take a few ordinary courses from a foreign teacher to get used to it."

"Junior high school, can she keep up?"

Mother Zuo snorted, "Can you still keep up?"

During the first half of the month, not only did they hire a tutor to help her study one-on-one, Zuo's mother also insisted on speaking to Ji Yu in English as much as possible in her free time.She was originally an English teacher,

Originally, I didn't ask her to answer fluent sentences, I just wanted her to be in such a context.

Unexpectedly, Ji Yu would be able to chat with her in English soon.

Zuo's mother was talking, washed her hands, and walked out with a fruit plate.

She took out from the drawer all the exercise papers and vocabulary books that Ji Yu wrote after he came here, and kept boasting about Ji Yu, saying, "I have taught for decades, and I have only seen a few children as smart as her, Just a little bit"

There was a sound of opening the door.

Zuo's mother stopped talking, just ignored Zuo Nanjin, turned around and greeted her, "I'm back"

The tone is not known to be how many times gentler than before.

"Yeah," Ji Yu squatted down to change his shoes, and said in a tone that couldn't wait to share, "Today the teacher praised me for my great progress in English, and asked whether there are fairies who cast magic by my bedside every night, and I said yes."

She raised her face, her tone was as sweet as the dimples on her cheeks, "Auntie is a fairy."

"Hey, my little darling"

Zuo Nanjin looked at the old lady's smiling face, so bright that she didn't even care about the wrinkles around her eyes.

""

Ji Yu saw her after changing his shoes, the smile froze on his lips, paused for a few seconds, then trotted over without saying a word and hugged her.

"Is it hard to study?"

The moment she rushed over, Zuo Nanjin's heart was lightly hit, and the hard work of flying for more than ten hours was nothing.

"It's not hard," Ji Yu buried his face in her arms, "I even got No.1 in this exam."

"Is that great?"

Zuo Nanjin was dumb, then raised her lips and smiled and said, "Well, very good, it's my own."

Ji Yu ""

She raised her face with a helpless expression.

As if to say, well, have fun with yourself.

Zuo Nanjin looked at her chubby little face and wanted to stretch out her hand to pinch it. She smiled, "What's the matter, you will suffer, and be my own daughter."

Her mother pulled her away from the side, "Okay, how are things going at your place? Have you chosen a school? Are you going to take care of Xiaoguai by yourself?"

good boy

Zuo Nanjin completed the enrollment procedures for her, but the private elementary school started the Christmas holiday in early December, and the principal suggested that she wait two days late and wait until the holidays are over before enrolling.

So for more than a month, Zuo Nanjin needed to take care of the children while working.

She enrolled Ji Yu in a piano class.

Delivered in the morning and picked up in the evening, they eat three meals a day in the dining room.

Zuo Nanjin realized the problem belatedly.

Even if it is a high-end restaurant, if you eat it for two consecutive months, your natural Chinese stomach will not be able to stand it.

Although Ji Yu didn't show it, his food intake was gradually decreasing, and his slightly dull gaze when he saw the steak.Zuo Nanjin felt something was wrong.

""

Zuo Nanjin is a person who is used to eating fast food and has no appetite. It is normal to only eat sandwiches for half a month under high-intensity work.

But she has a little girl with her now.

The guilt of child abuse made her go home with two bags of fresh meat and vegetables for the first time in her life.

Ji Yu saw that she was carrying something in her hand, and thought she had packed some fast food, and when he went up to take it, he glanced inside, "We are eating raw today." Public account YuriAcgn
