Si Tian asked, “Then, why?”
She sighed: “Oh, I’m so sad. I answered all your questions, but Zhile didn’t believe me.”
She acted very deliberately, maybe elementary school students could see it clearly, but it was just right for kindergarteners.
Ji Zhile said: “I believe it. But Mom said that I would understand when I grew up. I really want to understand it sooner, so I asked Dad.”
“Look, you still don’t believe Mom.” Si Tian immediately pointed out the loopholes in his words, “You don’t understand now because you are too young. When you grow up, many problems will be solved.”
Ji Zhile asked: “Mom, why is it solved so easily?”
Si Tian: “It’s not important.”
Si Tian continued: “For example, if I test you now, what is one hundred and two plus one hundred and three?”
Ji Zhile’s eyes widened: “Why did you take this test…”
Didn’t they still talk about family affairs just now? He did not learn addition and subtraction beyond one hundred yet but why did she test him on these math questions?
Si Tian said: “It’s all the same, but Ningyi knows it.”
Si Tian looked at Ningyi and gave him a look.
Ji Ningyi immediately gave the answer: “It’s equal to two hundred and five.”
Si Tian: “That’s right. So Zhile, you see, you don’t know the answers to some questions now, but when you grow up and learn more knowledge, you will understand. It’s not that Mom doesn’t tell you, but Mom just wants you to know the answers by yourself. Do you understand Mom’s painstaking efforts?”
Ji Zhile looked at Si Tian in confusion.
Si Tian continued to ask: “Do you understand?”
Ji Zhile nodded: “Understood.”
Si Tian stroked his hair and said, “That’s really smart. Now, don’t ask about this anymore because you’re still too young.”
Ji Zhile said, “Okay.”
“Well!” Si Tian gave him an approving look, “What story do you want to hear today? Go get the book yourself.”
Now in the bedtime story session, Si Tian is getting more and more relaxed.
In the beginning, she had to find stories by herself, which also attracted Ji Zhile’s pickiness. Now Si Tian no longer looks for stories and lets the two children find them on their own. She is only responsible for reading aloud without emotion.
Xiao Ai could not help but shake its head when it saw it. The daily tasks were used to cultivate parent-child relationships. At first, the host barely passed, but now it’s like clocking in at work, collecting health points and fishing at the same time.
But it did not dare not to give it, as the host would die.
It can only be said that the task requirements issued by the system are not perfect enough, but even if the host completes the tasks, the intimacy of the parent-child relationship will become stronger day by day.
Xiao Ai looked at Ji Ningyi and Ji Zhile who were nestled beside Si Tian, obediently listening to the story. It is not daring to have any opinions and sighed. The poor two cubs who had never seen anything good.
After the story was finished, it was time for Si Tian to go back to her room, but she was a little hesitant today.
What if when she goes back, she still sees Ji Jiangzhou still there? She hasn’t figured out how to answer Ji Jiangzhou’s question yet.
It was shameful but useful to escape. Si Tian hesitated. As soon as Ji Ningyi saw it, he asked, “Mom, do you want to sleep with us?”
He was lifting the quilt and making the small bed neatly and warmly. His smile under the light was very heartwarming: “Mom can also sleep in my room. I am willing to let Mom stay.”
Si Tian wondered if Ji Ningyi saw something, but he was only six and a half years old, so he shouldn’t be.
“Thank you, Ningyi, Mom is used to sleeping in my own room.”
Ji Ningyi nodded, then knelt on the upper bunk, leaned over, and gently hugged Si Tian’s neck: “Good night, Mom.”
Si Tian felt as if a soft feather had fallen from her heart, and it was a little itchy. She turned her head and kissed Ji Ningyi’s cheek: “Good night, baby.”
Being hugged softly by the child, Si Tian walked toward her room confidently. She was now full of courage and fighting spirit, and she felt that she could handle anything Ji Jiangzhou said.
Let’s reconcile. For the sake of the two children, for the sake of Ji Jiangzhou’s handsome looks, for the sake of Ji Jiangzhou’s ability to earn money and being quite generous, for the sake of their roughly the same three views, for the sake he has a good personality and is not a stubborn person, for the sake the two children also like him very much, and for the sake that her father-in-law and mother-in-law are easy to get along with…
