Lin Feifei's eyes fell on my face and she looked at me quietly, "Say."
I took a deep breath and said in a consultative tone: "Can you discuss it with your cousin? I think three weeks is too long for her to leave the child at our house. One week is almost the same. We both work, so I'm sure We don’t have time to spend with him, and his parents are not around. If the child gets bumped, we can’t take responsibility!”
After I finished speaking earnestly, I found that Lin Feifei was a little indifferent. Even the way she looked at me seemed to have changed.
She was silent for a few seconds. Although she didn't speak, I could feel her emotional fluctuations.
After a brief silence, Lin Feifei suppressed her emotions and said: "I know you don't like him. This kid is a bit noisy, but he just came here! We can't just beat him to death! He just finished chasing the cat. Later, I realized that I had done something wrong and apologized to me. My cousin and my mother had only agreed to give it three weeks. She was going on a business trip tomorrow and it would be about two weeks. Even if I wanted to send it back, there was no one. Accept him!"
"Where's his dad?"
"His dad is very busy with work. Everything he said he had agreed to does, but suddenly changed his mind. I really don't know how to talk to my cousin."
"..."
I suppressed the turbulent emotions in my heart and said nothing more. Her attitude said everything. There was no point in continuing to argue, let alone there was no need for others to affect our relationship.
A quarrel is like a small crack in a wall. Even if the superficial crack is repaired, if the problem is not solved, the crack will only gradually spread.
Lin Feifei had told me with her attitude that no matter how much we argued, the result would not change. When the tension was at stake, I took the initiative to take a step back.
I have always hated quarrels. Every time I had a big quarrel, I would feel exhausted. I didn’t want to experience the feeling of being overwhelmed by powerlessness again, so I didn’t say anything else.
Although the two of us did not quarrel, the atmosphere at home was horribly depressing. The home seemed to be shrouded in a huge shadow. This was the first time in this home that I had lived in for several years that I felt so depressed that I actually wanted to escape. a feeling of.
Lin Feifei and I were at war with each other, but the naughty kid still went his own way!
I really want to kick him out of the house.
But if I really do that and relieve my anger, I will probably be sentenced to a wifeless sentence.
I decided to be out of sight, out of mind.
In the next few days, I kept numbing myself with work. I didn’t go home until midnight and went out very early the next morning.
Lin Feifei was so kind to the naughty kid that she took her annual leave just to be with him.
I was so angry that my kidneys ached.
Lin Feifei only had ten days of annual leave. I originally planned to go to the beach in the summer, but now, the trip has been shortened by half.
Although I haven't had much interaction with the naughty kid these days, when I go home every night and look at the messy living room, I can think of how tragic the war was. Sometimes when I go back to the house to sleep, Lin Feifei is still asleep, but she keeps falling asleep. I suddenly feel that this is actually quite boring.
In the blink of an eye, the naughty kid has been in my house for a week. Although Lin Feifei didn't say anything about him, dark circles appeared under her eyes, and the light in her eyes disappeared. Her eyes were lifeless, as if her soul had been hollowed out. Like, obviously very tired.
The demolition team is not as professional as the naughty kid when it comes to demolishing a house. They have to take him to travel around the scenic spots every day. Isn’t that tiring?
I don't have to live broadcast tonight. When I think of the miserable life back home, I smoked two cigarettes downstairs before I mustered up the courage to go upstairs.
In the past, I couldn't wait to go home after get off work, but now I don't have that urgency, and I feel a little resistant.
The thought of naughty children doing whatever they want at home gives me a headache.
When I opened the door and looked at the home that was like chicken feathers, I suddenly felt very strange.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw a naughty kid playing happily with my PSP. I was immediately furious, but suddenly I smelled the pungent smell of safflower oil, which immediately diverted my attention.
I was startled and turned to look at Lin Feifei. She was sitting on the sofa and was wiping her right foot.
Safflower oil.
My heart skipped a beat, and I suddenly had no intention of competing with the naughty child. I immediately walked up to Lin Feifei and asked nervously, "Is your foot sprained?"
She nodded and said "Yeah".
I looked down and saw that her right ankle had swollen and turned dark purple. I touched it lightly and she suddenly let out an ouch and gasped in pain.
I no longer care about the cold war, "How did you do it?"
"Today I took Zimo to climb a mountain, and I accidentally got sprained when I came down the mountain."
What the hell is this naughty kid again?
I was too lazy to mention him, so I said "Wait for me for a while", then quickly went downstairs to buy a box of Yunnan Baiyao spray, and then ordered a cup of ice cubes from the milk tea shop downstairs.
Sometimes being sweet has an advantage. I called out "Miss" a few times, and the girl at the milk tea shop even gave me an extra cup, which was like VIP treatment.
After returning home, I asked her to lie down first, wrapped ice in a wet towel and applied it to her injured foot. Then I put two pillows under her injured leg. Every fifteen minutes, I Just change the ice cube once and repeat it five times before it's over.
She had sprained her ankle before and was used to being at my mercy, but from beginning to end, neither of us said a word.
Lin Feifei's injury was directly related to the naughty kid. Not only did this kid not care at all, when he saw me coming back, he threw the game console away and went back to the bedroom.
After I finished treating her ankle, I exhaled with relief, "Don't go out for the next two days. Just stay at home!"
Lin Feifei nodded without saying anything.
The atmosphere suddenly sank like night.
In the past, we seemed to have endless things to say, but now we actually looked at each other.
"I'll go back to the house and lie down for a while. If you're hungry, you can order takeout! I didn't expect you to come back so early, so I didn't order your food when I ordered it."
After saying that, Lin Feifei limped back to the room.
I stayed alone in the living room. The huge living room seemed to have an unspeakable weight. I was surrounded by long-lost loneliness and boredom. The room was so quiet that only the ticking of the clock remained, and the monotonous rhythm was like a lullaby. Everything was... So boring.
Since the naughty child broke up our world, I couldn't find any solace in this family. I picked up the PSP out of boredom and vented the troubles in life in the game.
Games and cigarettes are my go-to for stress relief. Whenever I have nowhere to vent my stress, I am used to relying on these two to find an outlet to vent my emotions.
I was jumping on my horse and wielding my sword in the game, when suddenly there was a "bang" and the naughty boy pushed the door open and came out.
