The clouds are moving slowly and the sun is setting in the west. The afterglow coats the playground with a hazy red light.
It was like a paradise in a dream, full of happy times for their family of five.
Fu Xizhou leaned his elbow on the edge of the car door, half-supported his chin, holding the steering wheel with one hand, driving the car with ease, looking through the rearview mirror at the amusement park that was getting further away.
He looked back and looked inside the car again.
Xiaozhou was sitting in the passenger seat, closing his eyes to relax. He must not have fallen asleep, as his sitting posture was still there.
The three people behind were completely exhausted and fell asleep, huddled together, each other's breathing became heavier and intertwined in the car.
Fu Xizhou's thin lips curved slightly, and when he raised his eyes to look at the flowing clouds outside the car window, he felt extremely comfortable.
What broke the rare moment of silence in the car was the sudden sound of a mobile phone vibrating.
Gu Beisheng was the first to react, rubbing his eyes, and asked half asleep: "Whose phone is ringing?"
Fu Xizhou glanced at her who was dizzy in the mirror, his smile spread endlessly, and his voice was light and gentle: "Your mobile phone."
Gu Beisheng blinked his eyes, forced himself to cheer up, squinted his fox eyes, and looked carefully: "Big brother is calling."
After saying that, she helped adjust with one hand, leaning against her sleeping Xiaobao, and still holding Xiaoshi with the other hand, so she had to use her mobile phone under her shoulder to call Lu Jinchen.
"elder brother."
The gentle voice on the other end was like the slowly approaching night, with a hint of gravity: "Are you feeling better in Xizhou?"
Hearing this, Gu Beisheng raised his eyes and looked at Fu Xizhou. Their eyes met in the mirror, and Fu Xizhou guessed what the person on the phone was talking about.
It's rare to take the initiative to respond: "I'm fine, mentally stable, healthy, and have a happy family."
In this life, it has never been as good as it is now.
Lu Jinchen smiled comfortably. He rarely saw his friends, so he took the initiative to make fun of them. It seemed that he didn't have to worry anymore.
"You're all fine, that's good." He changed his tone slightly and got down to business: "Then do you have any other arrangements these days? It's inconvenient for you, Toffee, so I'll go home temporarily. Mom has a special friend. I’m here for a visit and would love to meet you.”
"Who?" Gu Beisheng asked subconsciously, most of his sleepiness dissipating.
"This is the first time I've met this aunt. I won't know the specific situation until you get home."
Gu Beisheng nodded and responded in a gentle voice: "Yeah, that's fine. I'll accompany the three of them to the amusement park today, and I'll take them back tomorrow."
The brothers were also worried about Xizhou's condition, although they immediately returned to Nan'anju and called his mother to report that he was safe.
However, no matter how safe the phone calls are, it is still not as safe as going back in person as a family.
"Okay, when will you come back? I'll ask the servant to prepare more dishes that you and the three little ones like to eat."
"It's okay, it's not like I haven't been back for a long time." Gu Beisheng's tone became more and more casual. When talking to her elder brother on the phone, she would always relax subconsciously: "I will come back from time to time in the future. There is no need to prepare anything."
"Okay, so what time will you be back?" His tone was more or less impatient.
Gu Beisheng smiled helplessly and said: "Early in the morning!"
After hanging up the phone, she was about to say something to Fu Xizhou, but he didn't expect him to nod first: "Young women follow their husbands, go back and have a good rest today, and go back to the Lu family tomorrow."
"good."
The next day.
Lu family manor.
Fu Xizhou's car had just parked at the entrance of the courtyard.
When Gu Beisheng got out of the car, he saw Lu Sinian and Lu Beixiao, dressed in home clothes, and took the initiative to greet them.
"Second brother, third brother." She raised a smile in surprise: "You are also at home all the time?"
Lu Sinian shook his head slightly, his beautiful Feng Dan eyes drooped slightly, with a hint of tenderness and affection: "No, I heard you were coming last night, and Bei Xiao and I came back overnight."
Lu Beixiao raised his hand and tapped her forehead, and said casually: "I was planning to come back. We agreed that this year, the whole family would celebrate the New Year at home. I didn't come back specifically to see you."
Even so, everyone knows whether it is intentional or not.
After saying that, Lu Beixiao passed her, walked to the back seat, fished out the little poem in the car, and let her sit directly on his shoulder.
Xiaoshi looked around naturally at the scenery in the manor and said happily: "Hey! I can see grandma in the backyard, and there is a grandma I haven't seen before!"
Xiaobao also got out of the back seat of the car, took the initiative to lift Lu Beixiao's legs, and climbed up like a tree: "I want to watch too, and I also want to sit on Third Uncle's shoulders."
Lu Beixiao lifted him up with one hand, and as soon as he put it on the other shoulder, he was about to stand up.
When Fu Xizhou got out of the car, he coughed slightly and was about to speak.
I only heard Xiaozhou's majestic voice: "Xiaobao! You can't step on your uncle's shoulders!"
Hearing this, Xiaobao lowered his raised leg, hugged Lu Beixiao's face, and kissed Lu Beixiao hard, as if apologizing, but also acting coquettishly: "I'm sorry, uncle, I just saw you were too tall, I thought Stand up there and see if you can see higher."
"It doesn't matter. My uncle's shoulders are strong enough. Next time, when your father and brother are away, I will let you stand up alone." Lu Beixiao didn't think there was anything wrong. After all, he was his little nephew, so he wouldn't feel offended at all.
Xiaoshi sat obediently and smiled, "I heard it!"
"Sister, don't tell me, please." Xiaobao quickly begged her.
Lu Beixiao was so amused by the two of them that he couldn't get enough of them. It seemed like it was a good idea to come back all night yesterday.
Xiaozhou, on the other hand, was very polite and followed his father to Lu Sinian: "Hello, second uncle."
Lu Sinian clicked his tongue twice and joked softly: "Are all the eldest brothers serious?"
Gu Beisheng also looked at Xiaozhou and smiled: "Are you talking about Xiaozhou, or are you talking about our eldest brother?"
"Anyway, when I was young, my eldest brother would go with us to our relatives' houses. He would always greet people politely." Lu Sinian said, squatting down and looking Xiaozhou up and down: "Well, he has grown a lot taller."
Xiaozhou looked around and asked, "Where is uncle?"
He admired Lu Jinchen more, and when he came over, he looked for his uncle again. ŴŴŴ.BiQuGe.Biz
Before he finished speaking, a clear voice picked up: "I'm here."
Hearing this, Xiaozhou turned sideways and saw Lu Jinchen coming from the backyard, and greeted him without thinking.
Lu Jinchen picked him up very naturally, and the picture was harmonious.
"Hello, uncle." Xiaozhou obediently stayed in his arms, rarely getting intimate with him.
Lu Jinchen also loves the three little ones very much. Xiaozhou is sensible and smart, with a bit of the cuteness of toffee, and he can talk fluently, just like an adult.
"Good boy, Xiaozhou, stay at home for a few more days. I've found some rare books for you. If you don't understand, you can ask me."
"good."
Lu Sinian saw it and realized that his eldest brother relied on Xiaozhou's hobbies to win Xiaozhou's closeness.
Lu Jinchen came over and looked directly at Gu Beisheng: "The guests are in the backyard, why don't you go there first?"
