Chapter 201 Be careful
Chapter 201 Be careful
Once upon a time, every time little Yangzhi saw me, he would hide far away and dare not say a word.
Later, when he didn't go home for a week, the little girl was so scared that she didn't know what to do and tried her best to talk to him.
Xu Mingyuan left her some pocket money at that time. Although it was only two hundred yuan, it was enough for her to order food in restaurants three times a day for a week.
But when he came back, little Yangzhi only spent less than ten yuan to eat noodles for nearly a week. She also had to put on an ingratiating expression on her cold little face, and held the remaining money in her hand to curry favor with him, trying to prove that she was easy to support.
Only then did Xu Mingyuan realize that Xiao Yangzhi only looked like a normal person, but in fact she was not able to take care of herself completely.
Since that day, little Yangzhi began to secretly pull at the edge of Xu Mingyuan's sleeve.
However, at this point, I had unknowingly stuck to him.
There was a thin layer of frost on the window glass, which turned into water droplets under the sunlight and drew streaks on the glass.
Removing the slender arm from his chest, Xu Mingyuan held the warm little hand, then reached down. After a night's rest, the little feet resting on his legs were also warm.
Seeing that Xiao Yangzhi was still sleeping soundly, Xu Mingyuan got up and put on his coat.
But when he heard the door closing, Xiao Yangzhi's eyes narrowed a little.
Yang Zhi, feeling guilty, turned his head carefully at this time and saw that he was the only one left in the room. He finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Practice makes perfect, this time Yang Zhi was able to stay still. Fortunately, she was lying on the pillow, which covered her slightly twitching eyelids.
It was a bit lonely to stay in the room alone, but fortunately there was still warmth next to me. Yang Zhi walked over slowly and covered his head with the quilt.
But less than ten minutes later, she heard the sound of clothes shaking outside, and her brother seemed to be going out.
Yang Zhi couldn't pretend to be asleep anymore, so she ran out in her cotton slippers with a clattering sound, making her presence felt.
"Brother, let me go buy food."
"Who can go? I'll be back in ten minutes. You stay here."
"How about cooking a bowl of noodles? It's not good to eat porridge and tofu pudding all day. We have cold dishes at home."
"That's fine, just cook a bowl of noodles."
Every time Xu Mingyuan returns home, he would have a bowl of noodles for his first breakfast. It has almost become a habit for him.
"Ah."
Yang Zhi nodded vigorously and ran to wash up.
Still the same as always, a bowl of clear soup noodles with a poached egg on top.
Xiao Yangzhi likes to eat eggs with a little runny egg, so every time she beats the eggs, she puts them in twice.
Take a small bite of the egg yolk in the middle, the slightly bouncy and runny texture is very delicious.
"The shredded potatoes are not fresh. Don't eat them. You will throw them away later. Eat the lotus root slices instead."
Xu Mingyuan tasted it and pushed the plate aside.
Yang Zhi tasted it when she served the dish, and didn't taste any sourness, but since her brother said it was not fresh, she decided not to eat it.
Thinking about his own hypocritical behavior, Yang Zhi, who felt guilty, finally took the initiative to explain: "Brother, I'm sorry, I was too sleepy last night..."
"It's okay. If you feel the cabin is cold, why don't you move to the south room?"
"Ah? Can I?"
Yang Zhi didn't dare to confirm, and her almond-shaped eyes widened.
"It's okay, go pack up your things and move to the south room. I don't have much stuff, so just take your clothes over there." Xu Mingyuan said.
"The bed in the cabin is next to the radiator, so it's not cold. I just feel a little cold..."
Although it was not what he expected, Yang Zhi still couldn't help feeling a little discouraged.
"Yeah, then let's wait for dad to come out and move. This house is fine in the summer, but it's not too miserable in the winter." Xu Mingyuan said.
He was fine, but Xiao Yangzhi was not. The windows of the old building were of poor quality. Even with tape on them, a cold wind could be vaguely felt.
"Are we really going to move?" Yang Zhi asked timidly.
Not only did he not get any good news, but he heard even worse news. Yang Zhi looked around the room, with countless disappointments flashing in his eyes.
"Are you not happy living in a new house? New houses now have floor heating, so you won't feel cold even in pajamas in winter. Xiao Yangzhi, do you prefer living in a building or a villa?"
"I like living at home..."
Yang Zhi raised her eyes and said weakly.
"Ha, it's up to you. I'll let your Uncle Xu decide when the time comes." Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.
"Brother, will you move out?" Yang Zhi asked.
"Yes, I will move out and buy my own house." Xu Mingyuan nodded.
"Isn't it good for us to stay at home together?" Yang Zhi asked pitifully.
"How old am I? It's okay to go back from time to time, but don't even think about living with my dad."
Xu Mingyuan usually looks amiable, but he still has a strong desire for control.
When Xu Jun comes out, Xu Mingyuan won't be able to take care of his father, so he might as well just go home for a visit every now and then.
"But, I'm still young..." Yang Zhi looked depressed.
"Aren't you in high school? You're not a kid anymore. Besides, you'll be going to college, so the time you spend at home will become less and less."
"Brother, if you want to move out, can you take me with you?"
Seeing Yang Zhi looking at him eagerly, Xu Mingyuan smiled and said, "What's wrong? Is your Uncle Xu not treating you well?"
"No, my brother is very good to me." "It's not that I don't allow you to visit me. You can come anytime if you want." Xu Mingyuan said.
"Brother, do you find me annoying?"
"No, I don't mind. What are you thinking about?" Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.
"Oh, I'm afraid my brother won't open the door for me..."
"No, even if I move out, I will give you the key and you can come anytime."
"Ah."
Although he said this, Yang Zhi still responded absentmindedly.
Xu Mingyuan knew that little Yangzhi was just timid and didn't dare to face the future, so he rubbed her head helplessly.
In fact, what he didn't know was that Xiao Yangzhi had already been thinking about what to do in the future...
The morning sun was warm, illuminating most of the living room.
After packing up her things, Xiao Yangzhi sat down on the cushion and basked in the sun.
Little Yangzhi, who is always worried about gains and losses, always lacks a sense of security. At this moment, she hugged her knees and looked a little lonely.
She was nearly 1.7 meters tall, not very tall, but not short either. Her already thin physique made her straight legs look even longer.
Yang Zhi knew in her heart that she was very beautiful.
She used to think that being beautiful was a burden, but after spending more time with her brother, she began to think of it as an advantage.
So I heard from Tao Shuxin how girls should take care of their skin and how to make their faces more beautiful. Although I don’t like this girl who stole my brother away, I will also seriously learn from her strengths.
The sun is nice today and not as cold as yesterday.
Yang Zhi bit her lip lightly and did not follow her brother to the study. Instead, she went to the bathroom to turn on the water heater first.
After finishing the work at hand, Yang Zhi wrote homework alone for a while. When she saw the clock pointed to ten o'clock, she took the clothes she needed to change and went to take a shower.
When his brother came out, Yang Zhi turned his head and looked at the wall clock.
There is some deviation from the calculated time, but it is almost the same.
Yang Zhi hadn't come to pour him water for more than an hour, which made Xu Mingyuan a little uncomfortable.
Seeing that it was almost noon, I prepared to take her out for a walk.
The bathroom door was open and slightly damp. When he came out, he saw Xiao Yangzhi sitting in the living room in her pajamas.
"Aren't you cold?"
Since the beginning of autumn, Xu Mingyuan hasn't seen Xiao Yangzhi dressed so coolly for several months.
"It's not cold, it's quite warm today."
Yang Zhi waved his hand and continued to work on the task at hand.
Xu Mingyuan walked over, took the remote control and turned on the TV. The program was the news channel he usually watched.
But it was not yet noon and there was nothing interesting to watch in the news, so he glanced at Xiao Yangzhi, who was sitting on a soft chair with her legs stretched out.
"What are you wiping?" Xu Mingyuan asked.
"Body lotion. You and Sister Taotao bought it last time. She said that your skin will become dry in winter, so you should apply it frequently..."
"Oh."
Xu Mingyuan nodded and didn't care.
Xiao Yangzhi has cold white skin. It used to look a little bluish due to malnutrition, but now it is much better, with a little redness, which is very eye-catching.
Yang Zhi only squeezed out a little bit of moisturizer each time, and then applied it evenly on her calves.
In the sunlight, the fair and smooth skin glows faintly.
Yang Zhi realized that her brother paid more attention to her than usual, and she felt that she had done the right thing.
"Aren't you cold? The heating is off at noon, change into a sweater quickly."
Seeing that she was shivering a little, Xu Mingyuan frowned and said.
"You have to wait half an hour after applying it. The sweater is very tight and it will get stuck to it." Yang Zhi explained in a low voice.
"Then go get a blanket."
"The sun is so bright today, I took all the bedding downstairs to dry..."
Yang Zhi lowered his head in embarrassment.
"Oh, so, put on your down jacket then."
Xu Mingyuan walked to the clothes rack, took off his long down jacket, and came back to hand it to Xiao Yangzhi.
"It's so cold..."
The accident came very suddenly, but Yang Zhi was prepared for it. She put on her coat and couldn't help shivering.
Seeing Xiao Yangzhi, who was about to shrink into the size of a broad bean, sitting down beside him, Xu Mingyuan helped her tighten her clothes.
Little Yangzhi just naturally moved closer to him until she snuggled into his arms.
Shower gel, shampoo, and lotion, mixed with a light and elegant fragrance in distinct layers, entered the nasal cavity together, causing Xu Mingyuan to subconsciously take a few deep breaths.
Xiao Yangzhi seemed to be terribly cold, until Xu Mingyuan hugged her tightly, she finally stopped shivering...
