Tian Xinping, Zhou Guangyi and his wife were worried. After sending Zhang Poyue away, they arranged for Cheng Xiangyu to stay in the room next to Zhou Zhi's room on the second floor. The couple lay on the bed and tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
At one moment, she was worried that Zhou Zhi would feel sad if she didn't want to be happy. At another moment, she was worried that Zhou Zhi would run away from home if she got angry. At the same time, she was worried that even if Zhou Zhi didn't have an attack, she would still be holding back the anger in her heart.
Tian Xinping, in particular, lay on the bed like a pancake, turning over and over again. When they got up early the next morning, they both had dark circles under their eyes.
Zhou Guangyi comforted her and said that the child looked careless and carefree when he was a child, but he grew up after all.
It's normal for something like this to happen suddenly and to be confused for a while, but it will get better after a while.
Tian Xinping looked at her watch. It was already past six o'clock. Zhou Zhi must still be sleeping at this time. She had to go over and check on her. She could hold her daughter in her arms and talk to her, so as to be gentle with her.
When she arrived at Zhou Zhi's room on the second floor, she found that the door was ajar and the heavy curtains blocked the outside light. She tiptoed to the bedside and quietly reached out and touched the bed.
"Ah? Yaya, Yaya, where are you?"
Tian Xinping panicked when she didn't touch Zhou Zhi. She hurriedly stood up and opened the curtains. She looked at the bed in the morning light. There were only messy quilts and pajamas on the bed. Where was Zhou Zhi's shadow?
The bed was cold and devoid of heat, which meant that it must have been a certain amount of time since Zhou Zhi got up and left. Where could she go?
Tian Xinping broke into a cold sweat and ran to the bathroom on the second floor but couldn't find her. She ran towards the first floor in a hurry!
Because she was too busy, the slippers on her feet flew off her feet when she ran. She didn't care and ran downstairs barefoot.
"Yaya is gone, Yaya is missing..."
Zhou Guangyi picked up the slippers that had fallen in the lobby on the first floor and put them on Tian Xinping. He asked in a low voice what was wrong. Tian Xinping almost cried when she said this.
Afraid of waking up her elder brother, sister-in-law and grandpa who were resting on the first floor, Zhou Zhi crept in through the crack in the door with a steel pot in her hand. When she heard her mother's anxious movements, her nose felt sore.
She put the pot she was holding on the table and ran over to comfort her mother without washing her hands.
"Mom, I'm here..."
"Mom, I went to buy breakfast... There are a lot of people at home, and my sister-in-law has to breastfeed the child. I heard people say that drinking more soy milk and fermented glutinous rice wine can produce more milk. I went to buy a lot of them. The store on Qian Street The fermented glutinous rice and egg custard they make is really delicious. I’ll serve a bowl to my mother while it’s still hot..."
Tian Xinping became even more sad. She was familiar with the character of her adopted daughter. She was willing to sleep in. How often did she not wake up until she got up seven or eight times? When she had grown up, how had she ever worried about the food and daily life of her family?
She knew about her life experience and was deliberately trying to please her!
Tian Xinping couldn't help but shed tears and couldn't control her emotions at all.
She even regretted that she shouldn't have told Zhou Zhi about her life experience. What's wrong with hiding it like this?
Seeing Zhou Zhi busy working and serving hot soup for herself, Tian Xinping held Zhou Zhi's hand and refused to give up.
This is the daughter she raised little by little. When she brought her back, the little girl who was just one month old was only the size of a palm. Her body was weak and she caught colds and fevers all the time. In order to take care of this little girl, she stayed there day and night. Boil it.
Seeing that she grew up, she became more and more playful. She was quarreling with this and that one all day long. In order to train her, she broke several rulers. Those rulers hit Yaya's body and also hit her. On her mind.
She gave birth to two children and personally raised Zhigao and Yaya. Speaking of Yaya, she spent far more effort on Yaya than Zhigao!
Even if it's not the flesh that fell from her body, it doesn't matter, Yaya is her biological daughter.
Look at my mother’s red eyes and trembling lips. Tears flowed down like broken beads. Zhou Zhi, who was still grinning and forcing a smile, could no longer hold back any longer. He threw himself into his mother's arms, hugged her neck tightly with both hands, and kept shouting. Mother.
"Mom, Mom, don't you want me anymore? I won't be lazy in the future, and I won't cause trouble... I will go to bed early and get up early at home to help my mother with housework and take care of the three little babies. I will If you work more, my salary will be handed over to my mother. Don’t let me go without you..."
Hearing Zhou Zhi speak like this, Tian Xinping's heart was broken.
"You silly kid, who ever said your mother didn't want you anymore? You are a good daughter of your parents, how could you not want to let you go? We are the ones doing the cooking, and our aunt is here to help. You can go back and sleep for a while..." It's only around six o'clock. When you used to rest at home, you would never get up before eight o'clock. Wouldn't it be a headache if you wake up so early and fall asleep?"
Even Zhou Guangyi couldn't hold it any longer, so he took out a handkerchief to wipe the tears on his cheeks, raised his hand and gently patted Zhou Zhi, signaling her to go back and catch up on her sleep.
"Hey, you're not sleepy or not, I won't sleep in. If I'm still lazy and the three babies follow my example, my sister-in-law will beat me in the future..."
With tears on her face, Zhou Zhi was too embarrassed to let go of Tian Xinping's arms, grinned, and quickly ran to the bathroom to wash up.
She thought a lot last night.
To be fair, she has been in the Zhou family for so many years, and apart from Liang Mingguang, she has no unpleasant memories with anyone else in the Zhou family.
Zhou Guangyi and Tian Xinping were even more kind to her than Zhou Zhigao. They kept her close to food and drink, and her grandfather doted on her. If she got into trouble when she was a child, even if it was her fault, her grandfather would do it. He took her to someone else's house. For this matter, a group of women in the family compound talked behind his back.
Everyone said that the Zhou family is accustomed to killing their sons. If they continue to coddle Zhou Zhifa like this, they will only spoil Zhou Zhi into a disgraceful manner, and they will not be afraid of developing a little bully in the family.
The old man patted his chest and said that all the children in the Zhou family were top-notch and would never become bullies! If you continue to spread rumors like this, believe it or not, the crutch in his hand will hit them...
There were too many things like this. Regardless of anything else, she, Zhou Zhi, could not repay the kindness of her parents and grandfather in raising her.
What's the difference between biological and adopted? Her parents and family love her, and she also loves her parents and family. That's enough!
Zhou Zhi, who had washed up and changed her clothes, had completely convinced herself that her parents had explained her life story. She had just gained a sister and an uncle, and had not lost any relatives!
Once I figured it out, I felt much more comfortable.
The family members got up one after another. The three babies were babbling and humming with their little mouths open, and they joined in the fun. Tian Xinping, Cheng Xiangyu, each held one in his arms and fed milk powder. Zhou Zhi curiously ran over and asked why her sister-in-law had another baby that didn't come out. .
"Sister-in-law is breastfeeding the third child in the room."
"Can't you take it out and feed it? What a spectacular scene it would be for three babies to be fed together!"
Before Zhou Zhi finished speaking, Zhou Zhigao suffered a brain breakdown.
She suddenly realized it and said with a smile that it was all because of her second brother. My sister-in-law was trying to avoid suspicion!
