Chapter 472 A Headache
Chapter 472 A Headache
Under Tao Shuxin's torture, Yang Zhi finally had no choice but to be dragged and pushed away.
When getting into Tao Shuxin's car, Yang Zhi was still leaning back, not wanting to get in.
Tao Shuxin didn't expect that taking Xiao Yangzhi away would be so difficult. She had already talked to her father and Xu Mingyuan, and both guardians agreed, but this unfortunate child is still struggling.
But is struggling useful?
Tao Shuxin was quite strong, but little Yangzhi was reluctant, so she was as hard to hold as a pig during Chinese New Year. He could only grit his teeth and use all his strength to push her into the car.
Yang Zhi knew that she couldn't refuse, so she just wanted to make things difficult for Tao Shuxin and ask her not to make such a request again in the future.
Tao Shuxin was afraid that Xiao Yangzhi might run away, so she opened the front passenger door and stuffed her in, even buckled her seatbelt. After waiting for a long time, she said cautiously, "Don't open the door and run. I'm taking you out for a walk. What's the point of staying at home alone? You can't even play games by yourself. You're getting sick."
"My brother said the same thing before, but I didn't get sick from holding it in." Yang Zhi retorted unhappily.
"You seem to be sick from holding it in. Your brother should take a big responsibility for this. It's all his fault for not taking you out earlier." Tao Shuxin complained.
"Don't blame my brother." Yang Zhi said with a frown.
"This is what your brother told me in person. He said it was his fault for not teaching you earlier. Now that your behavior has been determined, it's hard to control it anymore." Tao Shuxin said with a pout.
"My pleasure."
Yang Zhi was the type of person who didn't want others to bother her, and she didn't want to bother others either. She had no gratitude at all for Tao Shuxin's kindness.
"Well, we're going out to play for two days. I'm taking you with me, so it's not like you're alone. By the way, have you never lived outside of your home since you were a child?" Tao Shuxin asked.
“I’ve lived in a dormitory.”
"Oh my god, what is the outside of the dormitory called? Besides the dormitory?"
"My brother and I stayed in a hotel." Yang Zhi said in a flat tone.
"Huh?" Tao Shuxin opened her eyes wide immediately after hearing this. She didn't expect this to happen. She then asked suspiciously, "When was it?"
"About two years ago, my brother took me home to see my mother, and we stayed in a hotel on the way."
"Are you two living in the same room?" Tao Shuxin asked blankly with her mouth open.
"Yes."
Yang Zhi nodded indifferently.
"Is it a king-size bed room?"
"I don't know. Anyway, the bed is not big."
"Oh, that's a double room. It's not good for you to live alone when you are away from home." Tao Shuxin nodded and said.
“A smaller bed would be more comfortable.”
Yang Zhi likes the small bed the most. The two of them squeeze together and feel very safe.
But it’s the same now. I can use only half of the double bed, and it feels safer than before.
"You're so weird. The big bed is so comfortable. You can flop around as you like."
Seeing that Xiao Yangzhi had no intention of getting out of the car, Tao Shuxin hurriedly ran into the driver's seat and locked the door.
Tao Shuxin's aunt's house is in Baishuiyuan, and Yang Zhi also went there to pick strawberries two years ago.
I remember that at that time Xu Mingyuan had just finished the college entrance examination and Tao Shuxin had not yet passed the driving test. I was in anxiety every day and did not dare to face high school life alone.
But later on I got through it and it didn’t seem like a big deal.
But Yang Zhi absolutely didn't want to go through the same path again.
Challenging difficulty has never been an option for Yang Zhi. She only likes an ordinary life, and being able to maintain her current life is already very good.
"I'm here, waiting for you to come back, waiting for you to come back and see the peach blossoms bloom..."
Xiao Yangzhi never sleeps when riding in a car. When Tao Shuxin saw her staring out the window in a daze, she turned on the car music and hummed a little tune.
It's quite boring to be alone with Xiao Yangzhi. When Xu Mingyuan is around, we can chat about all sorts of things.
However, Xiao Yangzhi is a man of few words, and although he doesn't squeeze toothpaste like he used to, he still can't get an effective response.
"Xiaozhizhi, let's sing together?"
"No."
Yang Zhi didn't want to pay attention to Tao Shuxin. How could she be in the mood to sing now?
"Sing one."
"Sing it yourself."
"You have a beautiful voice, why don't you sing?"
"I'm tone-deaf."
"What a coincidence! I was the same before! I learned how to sing when I joined the music club in college. You know Sister Qingqing, right? She used to be the president of the music club, and she taught me personally!" Tao Shuxin said.
"Oh."
Yang Zhi responded and continued looking out the window.
"It turns out your brother is also in the music club."
"Ah."
Yang Zhi was still not interested. It was not like she hadn't heard Xu Mingyuan and Tao Shuxin talk about these things on the phone.
"How about I teach you? My mother is a teacher, so I must be a good teacher. The basics of music are easy to learn. It's nothing more than training your voice, like this, ah~ah~ah..."
Tao Shuxin immediately became interested and started to talk non-stop.
"Since my brother has learned it, why can't I let him teach me?"
Yang Zhi didn't want to listen to her howling anymore, so he frowned and said.
"Uh……"
Tao Shuxin was choked and speechless. Wow, why is Xiao Yangzhi always so targeted when speaking?
But the talkative Tao Shuxin still found a point of rebuttal, and then said stubbornly: "How can your brother have time to teach you these things? He is busy..."
"He always has time." Yang Zhi said calmly.
"Did he teach you?" Tao Shuxin asked.
"No……"
Yang Zhi sighed softly. She seldom made requests, and Xu Mingyuan seldom asked either. It had become a habit. Occasionally, they would hum a few lines of a song just to kill time.
Of course, if there is time to teach singing, it would be better to just hug quietly for a while...
"Haha, let me tell you. I'll teach you."
"Can you please focus on the road? It's slippery and I'm scared."
Seeing that Tao Shuxin was getting a little too proud of herself, Yang Zhi quickly reminded her.
"Don't worry, I changed to snow tires, so you won't slip."
Tao Shuxin was no longer distracted and focused on driving while humming a little tune.
The scenery in the town is better than in the city. Compared to the city, Yang Zhi prefers the deserted countryside.
However, Yang Zhi is quite socially anxious and doesn't like crowded places, especially when strangers are too enthusiastic towards her. Although she had come here once two or three years ago, she had long forgotten about Tao Shuxin's aunt's relatives.
Tao Shuxin doesn't have much emotional intelligence, but she does have none at all. Having been in contact with Xiao Yangzhi for such a long time, she knew that she was afraid of strangers, so she took her to visit her aunt and uncle and no longer took her to hang out in crowded places.
Yang Zhi also knew that Tao Shuxin meant well, but she really didn't want to make a snowman or ride a sleigh.
The weather outside was freezing cold, and Yang Zhi didn't want to play childish tricks. Although she had never played them before, she didn't have much of a childhood, so she wasn't interested in them at all.
"Sister, you are so beautiful."
The son and daughter of Tao Shuxin's aunt's family were both eight or nine years old. Their faces were red from the cold and they looked up at the beautiful sister in front of them with an innocent look.
"..."
Yang Zhi just nodded in response and reached out to pull up her scarf.
"Big sister! Stop playing! Sister Xiao Yang is freezing!"
Seeing his sister shivering from the cold, the little boy shouted loudly towards Tao Shuxin who was riding a snow sled with a stick in the distance.
"What?" Tao Shuxin was wearing a hat and laughing foolishly. After hearing what was said, he came back trotting with his sled and said to Xiao Yangzhi, "What's wrong, Xiao Zhizhi?"
"Can we go back? My feet are a little cold."
"If you move more, you won't be cold anymore. Come, I'll teach you how to ride a snowmobile."
"I do not want to play."
"Uh, well, let's go back to the house."
Tao Shuxin hadn't had enough fun yet, and seeing that Xiao Yangzhi really didn't want to play with them, she had to give up the idea.
"Can I go home?"
"No! You want to run away right after you get here? You wish! Your brother told me to take you out for a good walk."
"That's what you said."
"Your brother agreed." Tao Shuxin didn't want to argue with Xiao Yangzhi about this matter, so she said to the children beside her: "Fang Heng and Fang Rui, go pick some strawberries."
"Sister, mom doesn't let us go to the greenhouse." said the little girl.
"I told you to go, what are you afraid of? I'll hold up the sky if it falls, go quickly, run forward!" Tao Shuxin urged, and when he saw the two children running away, he said to Xiao Yangzhi, "Look, my little brother and sister are obedient, hehe... January and February are the seasons when greenhouse strawberries are ripe, and they are tastier than those in summer. You've got some."
"I do not want to eat."
"You're such a bummer. You don't want this or that. Come on, let me take you to roast sweet potatoes. They taste great. They're honey sweet potatoes that have been cultivated for many years."
Tao Shuxin just wanted Xiao Yangzhi to move. She felt worried for her because she just watched her in a daze every day.
"I don't eat grilled food." Yang Zhi said.
"Do you want to eat steamed one? The steamed one is not very sweet. There is a layer of skin on the outside of the sweet potato, and the meat inside cannot be roasted. You will know after you try it," Tao Shuxin said to herself.
"..."
Yangzhi doesn't like eating sweet potatoes, nor does she like eating roasted sweet potatoes.
I don’t like anything, steamed, fried or boiled.
This was the most common plant when I was a child, and I’ve eaten enough of Yangzhi a long time ago.
Yang Zhi couldn't bear it any longer, and secretly took out her cell phone from her pocket, urging Xu Mingyuan to go home no matter whether he was busy or not.
After all, he answered Tao Shuxin's call, and he said he loved him the most, so he couldn't blame himself.
beep...
The call was connected within a few seconds of ringing.
"Brother, when will you come back? I want to go home..."
Yang Zhi felt very aggrieved. As soon as the call was connected, he spoke out his true feelings impatiently without waiting for the other party to speak.
"Hey! Xiaozhizhi! Why are you thinking of running away just after you got here?"
Tao Shuxin was pulling Xiao Yangzhi to find a stove to make a fire, and in the blink of an eye he saw her secretly making a phone call.
Didn't we agree to play for two days? Why can't we hold on for less than half a day?
Tao Shuxin suddenly felt overwhelmed.
Xu Mingyuan had indeed not lied to himself. Little Yangzhi seemed obedient, but sometimes she was really a headache...
