In the evening, Murphy returned home. Her face was a little dark, and she seemed to be emitting smoke. Yang Yi didn't think too much about it. He just asked curiously, "Mo Xiaojuan, don't you close the window when you drive? Before the New Year, firecrackers are probably being set off everywhere. Look at you. You look like you just got up from the battlefield. "
He also got some hot water for Murphy and a towel to wipe her face.
Murphy was a little guilty, so she hurriedly covered up by wiping her face. She was afraid that Yang Yi would ask her what she did in the afternoon. She didn't know how to lie, so she might tell the truth.
"Well, Yang Yi, when will we go back to your house?" Murphy asked nervously. "I've already arranged my work. I can leave at any time."
Yang Yi knew that Murphy was under a lot of pressure when she kept asking about the situation at home. He patted Murphy's back gently and said with a smile, "In a few days. After I buy everything, we'll drive back with Yang Huan. You should have a good rest. You've been tired for a month. And don't be too nervous. My parents won't eat you. "
He also made a little joke, wanting to let Mo Fei feel his confidence. However, even Yang Yi himself had no idea. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone around buying so many things. He even made a long list of things to bring back.
"Eat you? Is there a big bad wolf again? " Xi Xi, who had just helped her mother carry the coat to the bedroom, came out. She happened to hear half of her father's words. The little girl immediately straightened her little chest and said with a sense of justice, "Papa, I'm not afraid of the big bad wolf. I'm a hunter!"
After that, she ran back to the bedroom. When she came out again, the little girl was already holding a long toy gun and running out coolly.
"Papa, look, I'm a hunter!" Xi Xi grabbed the gun with both hands and pretended to shoot. Her posture was not very standard. Although she was trying to scare the big bad wolf and had a serious attitude, it was still not enough to scare the big bad wolf. However, it was possible to make the big bad wolf look like a husky.
This toy gun was actually bought by Yang Yi for a relative's child. Xi Xi saw it and took it for herself. When Yang Yi told Murphy about this matter, Murphy complained that he had raised her daughter from an obedient girl to a tough girl who wielded a sword and wielded a gun.
Yang Yi's attention was diverted. He couldn't help but laugh. "Aren't you Little Red Riding Hood? How did you become a hunter? "
"I am also Little Red Riding Hood! But I also like hunters because hunters can defeat big bad wolves! "Xi Xi hugged the toy gun and explained earnestly.
…
In the evening, while Yang Yi was writing in the study, Murphy and Xi Xi, who had just taken a bath, were talking in the bedroom.
"Mom, you come in too. It's comfortable here!" Xi Xi got into the quilt and covered her head. Then she twisted her body and stuck her head out, revealing a pair of big eyes and said in a muffled voice.
The little girl was very excited as she hadn't slept with her mother for a long time.
Murphy lifted the quilt and sat beside her daughter. The little girl naughtily put her right leg on her mother's body.
Murphy didn't care about the little girl's rude behavior because she had something to tell Xi Xi. She turned her body slightly and rested her head on her arm. Looking at the little girl's side face, she asked softly, "Xi Xi, in a few days, we will go back to grandpa and grandma's home. Are you nervous?"
Xi Xi turned her head and looked at her mother who was smiling. She didn't know why she was so happy. She answered casually, "No, why?"
"Because it's the first time you go to grandpa and grandma's home and meet them! You don't even know them. We don't even know if they will like us! "Murphy inadvertently revealed a trace of sadness.
"Mom, are grandpa and grandma the same as grandpa?" Xi Xi was a little bored. She stuck her little head out of the quilt and pushed the quilt away with her arm. She pressed it against her stomach and asked curiously.
Murphy was a little helpless. She could only explain to her, "Grandpa and grandma are your PaPa's PaPa and Mom. In English, they are also grandpa and grandma. But for Mom's PaPa and Mom, you should call them grandpa and grandma in China. Do you understand?"
Xi Xi nodded in confusion.
"Xi Xi, Mom needs you to do Mom a small favor!" Murphy didn't want to beat around the bush anymore. Otherwise, she would be completely led astray by Xi Xi.
"Okay! I like to help others! Helping others is a good child! "Xi Xi recited the words of the kindergarten teacher.
"But Mom, wait a minute!" Xixi pushed the quilt down with all her might, and then stretched out her little feet. She was probably too excited, and her whole body was hot. She rubbed her feet against the cool back of the quilt before smiling in satisfaction.
"No, you have to cover yourself with the quilt. You will catch a cold later!" Murphy couldn't spoil her.
After a while, Xi Xi was finally willing to cover her stomach with a corner of the quilt. Her feet were still exposed.
"Xi Xi, when we go back to grandpa and grandma's home, you have to talk to them more, okay?" Murphy said softly.
"Okay! What do I have to talk to them about? "Xi Xi asked curiously.
"You have to introduce yourself to them. Then, you have to tell them about the things that happened at home and in kindergarten. You have to pick some interesting things to tell them." Murphy didn't actually want Xi Xi to say anything. She just thought of what Yang Huan said to her before and felt that it might be easier for Xi Xi to please the elders.
"Then, can I tell them about my good friends?" Xi Xi counted on her fingers and looked at the ceiling. She said while thinking, "I have a lot of good friends. Xin Er, Qiqi, Chen Shiyun, Zhaoyu …"
"Okay, you can tell them all!" Murphy nodded.
Xi Xi suddenly thought of something. Her eyes lit up, and she turned around and said, "Then, then, can I tell grandpa and grandma that I wish them good fortune and red packets? Auntie said that we have a lot of relatives and I can ask for a lot of red packets! "
Thinking of this, Xi Xi felt that she was going to be overjoyed!
Although Xi Xi only understood the meaning of money in the past year, the joy of red packets had nothing to do with money for Xi Xi in the past. However, Xi Xi didn't get many red packets in the past. She didn't enjoy them when she was abroad. Only her grandpa, grandma, and mother gave her red packets.
"Well, okay, but you have to pay attention to your etiquette. You can't ask grandpa and grandma for a red envelope as soon as you come here. You have to build a good relationship with them first, and then you can get the red envelope. Don't look at how much money is in it. Once you get it, give it to mom, and mom will help you put it in your piggy bank!"
She didn't want Xi Xi's money, but she was worried that Xi Xi would care about the money in it. Murphy could guess that there wouldn't be much money in it, but if Xi Xi said it rashly, it would cause others to be unhappy.
Xi Xi's words also reminded Murphy that she had to prepare a lot of red packets and give them to the children during the Spring Festival. She couldn't be too stingy!
"Okay then! But Mom, you have to help me put it in! You can't take mine … "Xi Xi hesitated and said with some worry.
"Well, anyway, Xi Xi, if your grandpa and grandma are unhappy because Mom or PaPa did something wrong, you must run up to them quickly and coax them. Tell them: Grandpa, grandma, don't be unhappy, okay? Then, find a way to talk to them. "Murphy continued to exhort.
"I got it!" Xi Xi felt cold again. She rolled into the bed, squeezed into her mother's arms, and then said with a smile.
She was still happy that she could get a lot of red packets!
