With a shy blush, his son looked at her.
Can Jiang Cha refuse?
No.
“Shen Rang, let’s talk about these things tomorrow. I will sleep with Xiaozhi today.”
Shen Rang nodded, “OK, rest early.”
“Yes.”
Jiang Cha got up and walked towards Shen Zhi. Just at the door, Jiang Cha stopped again and looks back at Shen Rang with a little hesitation.
Shen Rang: “Hmm? Do you have anything else to say?”
“Well.” Jiang Cha coughed uneasily, “You… Should also rest early. Don’t be too busy till late.”
Shen Rang was stunned, then smiled, “OK.”
Jiang Cha deliberately rubbed Shen Zhi’s hair, “Let’s go, mom will sleep with you tonight.”
Shen Zhi felt she was a little strange, but adults are always strange. They are not as cute as him.
Jiang Cha was not yet sleepy, she half leaned against the head of the bed. Shen Zhi snuggled up to her and smiled secretly with his eyes closed.
Jiang Cha lowered her head. “What are you laughing at? Aren’t you sleepy?”
“Mom.” Shen Zhi opened his eyes and looked at her, “I feel very happy.”
“What?”
Shen Zhi smiled, “Mom and dad are so nice to me.”
“That’s good?” Jiang Cha lay down and held Shen Zhi in her arms. “In the future, mom will accompany you more. Tell mom what you like or don’t like, okay?”
“I want to know what you don’t like to eat what you don’t like and what you don’t like to wear. Mom will always listen to your opinion, okay?”
“But…” Shen Zhi whispered, “Aunt Zhang said that such children are bad children, and good children can’t be picky about anything.”
Jiang Cha sighed in her heart, “No, Xiaozhi, this is not a bad child. Everyone can have their own preferences. You have to tell to your mother so that mother can know more about you and avoid what you don’t like in the future.”
“And Xiaozhi, in the past… mother may seldom accompanied you. That’s mother’s fault. Can you forgive mother?”
“Mom and dad are busy making money. Xiaozhi knows.” Shen Zhi counted with his fingers. “Xiaozhi needs money to eat, wear clothes, go to kindergarten, buy toys, and Aunt Zhang to take care of Xiaozhi.”
Jiang Cha held her son’s small hand. “After that, we will not have Aunt Zhang at home anymore.”
“Really?” Shen Zhi was very happy, but after a while he became dejected again “but without Aunt Zhang, will there be other aunts?”
“No, only mom…” Jiang Cha recalled Shen Rang “And dad.”
“Thank you, mom.” Shen Zhi pursed his lips and kissed Jiang Cha’s face. “Mom, Xiaozhi is now sleepy.”
Jiang Cha patted Shen Zhi, “Mom will tell you a story. What does Xiao Zhi want to hear?”
“Ugly duckling.”
“OK.” Jiang Cha’s voice was soft. “Once upon a time, there was a mother duck. She had many eggs, but her favorite was the little duck named Shen Zhi…”
The next morning, the breakfast was made by both Shen Rang and Jiang cha.
Shen Zhi didn’t refuse the food he ate, but Jiang Cha couldn’t beat it.
Jiang Cha poured milk to Shen Zhi, “Xiaozhi, don’t hold on if you can’t eat. Just tell your mother.”
Shen Zhi looked at his remaining half bowl of rice, “but… It will be wasted…”
Jiang Cha smiled and picked Shen Zhi’s small bowl to comfort him. “It won’t be wasted, Xiaozhi. You have a father.”
Shen rang, who just swallowed his last bite of rice, “???”
Jiang Cha smiled and put Shen Zhi’s rice bowl in front of Shen Rang. “Dad knows that Xiaozhi can’t eat it and father still has space in his stomach, isn’t it Shen Rang?”
Shen rang: “???”
No, I don’t. You’re my wife and you can’t lie with your eyes open to our son.
However, Shen Rang’s heart and action are the opposite.
He picked up his chopsticks again and nodded. “Yes, your mother… Is right.”
So, under the gaze of his wife and son, Shen Rang ate the leftovers of his son for the first time in his 27 years of life.
