The days passed by, and soon Jin Yan had lived in the capital for a year and a half.
The chirping of cicadas in midsummer is like a grand and gorgeous performance that never ends. Jin Yan always falls asleep to the chirping of cicadas, and wakes up again with the sound of childish but gentle "good baby".
"My dear, get up quickly, it's time to go to school."
"My dear, the sun is shining on your butt."
Wen Zhan screamed for a long time, but the little man on the bed didn't even change his posture, except for a cute little mouth that puckered impatiently.
He called twice more, but when he got no response, he simply climbed onto the bed and lay down next to Jin Yan.
"Wen Zhan, you and Guabao..."
Seeing the scene on the bed, the nanny's words were stuck in her throat.
She walked over quietly, only to see Wen Zhan, the person responsible for waking Jin Yan up, slipping under the quilt at some point.
Although he was already asleep, he was still holding Jin Yan's little hand tightly.
The nanny glanced at the two children, hesitated for a moment, then turned and went out.
"What's going on? Why haven't the two children gotten up yet?" Professor Jiang asked.
The nanny described the scene in the room and said with a smile: "He volunteered to wake up the baby, but ended up falling asleep under the quilt. I don't think Wen Zhan can be allowed to take charge of this task in the future. He has already been late three times this month. ”
Professor Jiang also laughed after hearing this, "Let's count today as the fourth time. I heard on the radio that it might rain today, so let them rest at home for the day."
The nanny smiled and said, "I dare say there is no one in the whole capital who dotes on his children more than you."
Professor Jiang shook his head, "That's not entirely true."
Chu Xiao's project has reached the final stage. When Chu Xiao comes back, he will definitely take his wife and daughter back to Beicheng. There are not many days when the children can see each other like this every day.
She hoped that her time in the capital would become the best memory in the hearts of her two children.
In the room, Wen Zhan held Jin Yan's hand and asked her in a low voice, "My dear, you were pretending to be asleep just now, weren't you?"
Not long after he crawled onto the bed, Guobao kicked the quilt away with his feet. When he was about to cover her with a quilt, Guobao hooked the quilt back with his feet and wrapped him in it.
Guabao is so kind, he must not want him to catch a cold.
Jin Yan raised his eyelids and put a hand on Wen Zhan's eyes, "Don't talk and go to sleep. Children will become stupid if they don't get enough sleep, and their hair will also fall out."
When Wen Zhan heard this, he immediately dared not speak.
But the next second, he moved closer to Jin Yan and pressed his forehead against Jin Yan's forehead affectionately.
After a while, Wen Zhan said again: "Why do people need to go to school? It would be better if we didn't go to school. We can be together every day."
Jin Yan: "..."
Could this be what later generations would call the love brain?
After a while, Wen Zhan said again: "I heard from grandma and your mother that your father is coming back soon. My dear, your father is back. Can you not go home with him?"
"No." Xiao Jinyan said ruthlessly.
Wen Zhan choked and said, "I can't bear to leave you."
Jin Yan comforted him and said, "I can't bear to leave you either. When we grow up, I can take the train to the capital to find you."
Wen Zhan shook his head when he thought of getting a picture, "No, Uncle Chen said there are a lot of bad people outside. Children can't run outside by themselves, they will be abducted."
Then he said: "You stay at home and I will come find you."
He quickly changed his tune, "What happened just now doesn't count. We are not looking for each other. I will go to Beicheng with you. We will still play together. We will always be as good as now."
Jin Yan grabbed his finger and squeezed it twice, and said seriously: "No, your grandparents love you so much. They will definitely be worried if you leave. You have to stay here."
Wen Zhan suddenly stopped talking.
Jin Yan called him twice, but he didn't respond.
He didn't know how to describe the strange and uncomfortable pain that suddenly arose in his heart, but his eyes were already filled with tears.
It wasn't until his tears merged into the pillow like a river and wetted Jin Yan's ears that she sighed helplessly.
Jin Yan lifted the quilt, turned over and looked at Wen Zhan, who was crying with pear blossoms in the rain, feeling funny and distressed at the same time.
She wiped Wen Zhan's tears with her little fingers, patted Wen Zhan on the back like an adult and said, "I was just joking with you, we will not separate."
"Really?" Wen Zhan raised his head happily. His eyes were as red as a rabbit, and his long black eyelashes were stuck together with tears.
Jin Yan held back her laughter and nodded, saying it was true.
"Then let's pull the hook." Wen Zhan said.
Jin Yan stretched out his little finger.
Wen Zhan hooked Jin Yan's little finger with his little finger and said piously, "Baby, we will always be together, and we will always be as good as now."
At this time, he had no idea that the relationship between the two could be better or closer.
…
After all, the hot and unbearable summer quietly flows away from people's hands like water.
Wen Zhan counted the days day by day. Every time he spent an extra day with Jin Yan, he recorded it in his notebook.
He thought he could record until 999 days, or 9999, or all the way to 36500 days.
However, Chu Xiao came back.
His appearance was so sudden, abrupt and untimely (Wen Zhan's perspective).
Chu Xiao is tall, handsome, and high-spirited. He is the type that girls will like. From the moment he appeared in the compound, several people with daughters came to Li's house to inquire about information and asked if he had a partner.
Professor Jiang valued the student Chu Xiao very much, and even more valued the friendship between Su Meixian and her daughter and the Li family.
In order to prevent future troubles, she told the outside world that Chu Xiao was not only married, but his wife was very beautiful, talented and well-educated, and he also had several daughters who inherited their appearance, intelligence, temperament and talents.
After Professor Jiang finished replying like this, countless unmarried young women in the courtyard were heartbroken.
But Wen Zhan's heartbreak is unquestionable.
Having the same emotions as him was Xu Jing, who only found out on the day the Chu family was leaving the capital that they would never return.
Over the past year, Xu Jing has been getting up early to exercise with his grandfather every day. The little fat man in the past has long disappeared, leaving behind a handsome young man with a little baby fat on his face.
He saw that Chu Xiao could pick up all three daughters with just two hands, and felt both admiration and fear in his heart. "Wen Zhan, do you think we can grow as tall as Uncle Chu?"
Wen Zhan said without hesitation: "Yes."
Will be more powerful than Uncle Chu.
Otherwise, if he can't defeat Uncle Chu, how can he get the good boy back?
He then heard Xu Jing sniffing sadly, "If my aunt and the others hadn't said that Jin Yan's father was very good-looking, I wouldn't have known that Uncle Chu was back. Why did he have to take Chenchen and the others away as soon as he came back? ?”
Wen Zhan was also sad. His eyes were slightly red and he kept looking at Jin Yan.
After a while, he said, "Because he is a man."
Grandpa said that sooner or later when a man grows up, he has to support the family business and protect his wife and children.
When Uncle Chu comes back, he will naturally shoulder the mission and responsibility of protecting his family and making up for the pain and grievances they have suffered in the past few years.
Xu Jing was stronger than Wen Zhan. When he saw Chu Xiao and his family getting into the car, tears suddenly fell out of his eyes as if he wanted no money.
"Then what should I do if I miss Chenchen?" Xu Jing said.
Wen Zhan: "Go find her."
Xu Jing: "Will you go together?"
Wen Zhan said nothing.
Xu Jing added, "Then let's just say that we will take a bus to Beicheng together. You will go see Sister Jinyan, and I will go and play with Chenchen, okay?"
Wen Zhan: "Okay."
At this time, Jin Yan's little head suddenly stuck out of the window, "Wen Zhan, get in the car quickly, or I won't wait for you."
Wen Zhan was stunned, thinking he heard wrongly.
He listened to his grandmother's words, and he had remained calm and rational enough today, which also allowed Uncle Chu to see a calm young boy who could handle his emotions well.
He saw satisfaction and appreciation in Uncle Chu's eyes.
But in his heart, he didn't want to be so rational. He wanted to rush up and give Jin Yan a hug.
One hug is not enough, nor are three.
He wanted to hold Jin Yan and never let go.
But grandma said that he would not be able to see Jin Yan often in the future, and he would have to learn to choose.
"Wen Zhan, come quickly, or you won't be able to sit next to me!" Jin Yan shouted again.
Wen Zhan was sure that he heard correctly. He looked back at Professor Jiang, and after the other person nodded lovingly, he quickly ran to the car.
"Good boy!"
Wen Zhan could no longer hide his emotions. When he climbed into the car, his eyes were shining with excitement.
"Here, here, you sit next to me." Jin Yan said.
Wen Zhan happily sat down next to her, "I can also go to Beicheng with you, right? Then we can go to school in Beicheng together, right? From now on, we can be together forever, right?"
He asked several questions in a row, and Jin Yan didn't have time to answer them. Chu Xiao was not happy at first.
"Let's make an agreement first. You will follow us back, but you must obey my arrangements, otherwise I won't take you." Chu Xiao said.
Wen Zhan immediately sat upright and said obediently: "Uncle Chu, I will listen to your arrangements."
Chu Xiao snorted.
After all the children were seated, he got out of the car and told Professor Jiang and the others something.
The car was about to start and leave. Xu Jing, who realized what had happened, suddenly burst into tears, "Wen Zhan, you don't keep your word, you break your word, you break your promise, you change your order every day..."
After reciting a long list of idioms, Xu Jing said heartbreakingly: "We agreed to go to Beicheng together, but you abandoned me!"
Professor Jiang: "..."
Everyone in the car: "..."
Are you participating in an idiom competition?
Or are you performing some strange performance?
Seeing Xu Jing crying miserably, Wen Zhan said, "Go to your mother. She is your guardian. You can only go to Beicheng if she agrees."
Xu Jing heard it right and immediately wiped his eyes with his sleeve, "Okay, I'll go home and find my mother..."
When passing by the car, he glanced at Chu Jinchen who was sitting by the window, and tears couldn't help but burst out of his eyes, "Chenchen, I, I, I..."
"Xu Jing, you have to take care of yourself and study hard." Chu Jinchen said.
Xu Jing kept nodding and wanted to say something, but tears fell down like beads again.
Chu Jinchen took out a handkerchief and handed it to him.
When she comforted Xu Jing not to cry, Chu Xiao found it interesting and looked at Chu Jinxing who was very disgusted with Xu Jing's disdain outside. "Xingxing, you are leaving the capital, aren't you sad?"
"Why are you sad? I can still sing when I go to Beicheng. Teacher Li said that she has already agreed with her friends to accept me as her disciple and ask me to sing when she gets back!" Chu Jinxing said proudly.
Chu Xiao wanted to laugh when he heard this.
He heard from his wife that Xingxing was very popular in school and many male and female classmates liked her, but she regarded them as a scourge.
Just like when they knew they were going back to Beicheng, a dozen boys came to see them off, but Xingxing felt that they were delaying things by being coy about their mother-in-law, so they sent them away with a few words.
Suddenly, there were countless more sad people in the capital.
And the silly Xu Jing was already running home to find his mother.
He didn't know that once the car started, it would leave the compound and go to the station.
I wonder if the train will turn around easily.
I don’t know how many years it will be before we see each other again.
…
Wen Zhan spent his entire elementary school years in Beicheng, and would only return to the capital during winter and summer vacations.
However, his parents strongly disagreed with him staying in Beicheng. They believed that Beicheng's resources were not as good as those in Beijing, which would create a gap between him and his peers, and would have a serious impact on his development.
Only then did Wen Zhan realize that he actually had parents.
It's just that when he was sick, they thought he was a nuisance and a patient, which would damage their reputation and image.
Now that he has good medicine and is getting better, he realizes that his IQ is not bad, and he thinks of "training" him again.
"Wen Zhan, don't be sad. It will be the same when you return to the capital. We can write letters to communicate. When you return to the capital, maybe the first letter I write to you will arrive." Jin Yan said.
Wen Zhan, who was in a depressed mood, was a little surprised when he heard this, "When did you write to me?"
Jin Yan: "In Chinese class on Monday."
Wen Zhan's expression changed instantly.
In Chinese class, the teacher said, "Write to the person you like most."
So, he is Jin Yan’s favorite person?
All of a sudden, it was like a ray of light shone into the dark and cold heart of the young man. Parents, restraints, and separation were all unimportant.
He smiled happily and said under Jin Yan's doubtful gaze: "I also wrote you a letter and hid a lot of gifts. They are all left in this house. You have to find them yourself."
Jin Yan frowned and glanced at the extremely spacious yard, "There are so many houses, when do I have to find a time to go there?"
Wen Zhan said softly: "Don't worry, look for it slowly. I wrote a lot of letters. When you find them all, I will go back to Beicheng."
After Wen Zhan left, it took Jin Yan only one day to find all 100 letters and 99 gifts.
Then she put the letter and gift back in their place as if nothing had happened.
In the next six months, she would visit the house Professor Jiang bought for Wen Zhan every few days to find a letter and a gift.
The next day Wen Zhan will send new letters and gifts.
Before you know it, the persimmon tree with a few small persimmons in the yard has been filled with small red lanterns.
The little girl who once stood under the tree waiting for her little brother to climb up the tree and pick persimmons for herself has long since matured into a pretty and charming little girl who can climb the tree and pick persimmons for herself.
She would climb the persimmon tree every day to see if there were any young men on the street outside.
The sun was just right that day. Jin Yan was sitting on a persimmon tree, eating persimmons and basking in the sun. A gentle and doting voice came from under the tree, "Good boy, come down."
She looked down, looking through the dry branches and the bright red lanterns, and saw the beautiful young man who seemed to be glowing under the tree.
Let’s start a new story
Good night ~ sweet dreams
