An Ning and Nan Ji arrived at noon.
Today happened to be Saturday, so An Yiran didn’t have to go to school, and Fei Yunjin’s Go class was also in the afternoon.
So when the two of them just entered the villa, they heard the laughter of several children, mixed with the sound of puppies and…ducks?
After walking two more steps, they instantly saw the scene in the garden.
Nan Yu was lying in a rocking chair, leisurely eating fruit and flipping through a book, while the three children were happily chasing the kitten, puppy, and duck. An Yiran’s face was filled with genuine happiness.
It was a laugh that he rarely showed in front of An Ning. An Ning couldn’t remember how long it had been since she saw An Yiran so lively and cheerful.
“Xiao Bai! Don’t run! I caught you!”
“Lululu, it doesn’t count. If I run away, it doesn’t count as being caught~”
“Brother Yiran, help me catch Xiao Bai!”
Bang!
Fei Yunjin, who was not paying attention to the road for a moment, bumped into Nan Ji. He was picked up by Nan Ji and held high.
“Little guy, you don’t look fat, but you are quite heavy.”
Fei Yunjin saw who was coming and smiled brightly: “Hello, Uncle!”
Nan Yu had discussed the issue of the address with Fei Yunjin. They were nominally mother and son now, but on the one hand, Fei Yunjin was used to calling her aunt, and on the other hand, Nan Yu felt that the word ‘mother’ was too heavy. She raised Fei Yunjin, but it was not enough for them to be mother and son, so they should just keep it as it was.
But he addressed the other members of the Nan family as relatives.
Fei Yunjin used to call him Shūshu1叔叔, shūshu: father’s younger brother; paternal uncle / form of address used by children for a male one generation older , but now he has changed to Jiùjiu2舅舅, jiùjiu: mother’s brother / maternal uncle (informal), which is more intimate.
“Hello, Aunt.”
After calling Nan Ji, he naturally didn’t forget An Ning next to him.
An Ning responded with a smile and then met An Yiran’s suddenly surprised gaze.
“Mom!”
An Yiran trotted over to An Ning and asked, “When did you come back?”
“I’m fine. Aunt helped me solve the problem. Just focus on your work, Mom.”
Looking at An Yiran, who acted as sensibly as an adult when in front of her, An Ning couldn’t help but feel a bitterness in her heart. She was really not a good mother, as he had to worry about her at such a young age.
As if sensing his mother’s emotions, An Yiran stood there at a loss. Did he make his mother sad?
“Xiao Jin, Yibai, get ready to go to class.”
Nan Yu put down the novel in her hand.
“Have you eaten?”
This sentence was naturally said to An Ning and Nan Ji; after all, the other people present had just eaten together.
An Ning: “I’ve eaten. Nan Nan, thanks to you…”
“Stop!” Nan Yu made a stop gesture.
“You’ve said thank you many times. Enough is enough.”
She raised the corner of her mouth and said, “Let’s resolve your family conflicts today, otherwise, I don’t want to become a peacemaker in the future.”
Nan Ji couldn’t help but show a hint of embarrassment on his face after hearing Nan Yu’s words, which was probably similar to the embarrassment of being a brother but having his sister worry about him.
In short: the man’s boring self-esteem is coming up again.
But Nan Ji’s advantage is that he listens to what is said and will not be stubborn for the sake of so-called face. Otherwise, Nan Yu would not have bothered to care about him.
The four of them came to Nan Yu’s study. She was still holding the fruit plate that she had not finished eating in the garden. She picked up a piece of fruit and chewed it to moisten her throat.
“Then the family meeting begins. I didn’t want to be here, but I’m really worried about the communication skills of the three of you. Each one is more awkward than the other.”
“So, I’ll be the host.”
