As soon as Ji Zhile landed on his bed, he covered his cheeks with his hands.
Si Tian asked, “Would you like to sleep for a while first?”
Crying is a very energy-consuming thing, not to mention Ji Zhile cried for so long just now.
Ji Zhile shook his head: “No.”
If he said that he was going to sleep, would Mom want to sleep with him again? But, it’s still morning, and he doesn’t sleep at this time. But if his mother asks him this at night, he might agree.
Si Tian said again: “I put your books in the original drawer. I won’t read what you wrote in the future.”
“Of course, I can’t read it either.” Si Tian asked warmly, “Is Zhile very sad today?”
Ji Zhile shook his head but then nodded again: “Only a little bit. But, it’s all gone.”
After he finished speaking, he felt a little awkward. He lowered his eyes and deliberately did not look at her. He said in a childish voice: “Mom, if you like reading, just read it. Don’t read it now. Mom will read it after I write the essay in the future.”
Mom must have read it because she liked what he wrote in the notebook. Because his brother had said that for students who wrote well in their class, the teacher would read what they had written in class, and his brother’s essay had been read many times.
At this time, Ji Zhile connected the two and no longer felt that his mother was laughing at him because his mother loved him very much.
Si Tian had no idea about Ji Zhile’s strange brain circuit at all, but it was best if Ji Zhile was not sad. When she saw Ji Zhile burying his head in the pillow again, she thought that he wanted to sleep, so she closed the door and left.
Hearing the door close, Ji Zhile pulled his head out of the pillow, thought for a while, climbed out of bed, and found his own revenge book. He opened it and wrote on it: Although Mom is annoying sometimes, I will always like her.
Finally, erase the word ‘的1In the previous sentence, Zhile wrote: I will always like her (但我会永远喜欢妈妈的) 的: a possessive particle. He erased this word, so he could add the word of Brother and Dad’ and add ‘Brother and Dad’.
The whole family should like it together.

Si Tian went out of the room and went to the children’s room. When she opened the door, Si Tian saw that Ji Ningyi was drawing.
He was very serious when he was drawing. He sat up straight, and his white short T-shirt was stained with light. He raised his head, saw Si Tian, and smiled: “Mom.”
“I’m helping Zhile draw,” Ji Ningyi said.
Si Tian approached: “I’ll do it with you.”
As soon as Ji Ningyi gave up some seats, Si Tian sat next to him and watched Ji Ningyi draw.
Ji Ningyi’s level was much higher than Ji Zhile’s, and he could not draw deformities when drawing people. He drew Si Tian first. He was a little shy when he spoke: “I’m not very good at drawing.”
Si Tian immediately encouraged: “It’s already very good. Ningyi, you don’t know how good you are at drawing. Zhile will definitely take first place!”
Si Tian really thought so, but Ji Ningyi said: “He can’t get first place because other students in Zhile’s class are also very good at drawing.”
Si Tian remembered the pictures that the kindergarten teacher posted in the class group. It was indeed the case. Those children’s works were very beautiful, and they probably incorporated the wisdom of the whole family.
“It doesn’t matter. The ranking is not important. Ningyi is a very powerful and excellent child in Mom’s heart.” Si Tian said, “Even if you can’t do anything, you will still be outstanding.”
Ji Ningyi’s face was slightly red, and his painting hands trembled slightly. He felt that his mother thought of him too well.
But, the strange thing is that now he won’t feel the pressure of not being able to live up to his mother’s image if he doesn’t do well. Maybe he knows that no matter what he becomes, his mother’s love for him will not change.
Ji Ningyi drew Si Tian, and Si Tian also drew Ji Ningyi on the drawing paper.
Her painting skills were very average, but a little better than Ji Zhile’s, but she could not even compete with Ji Ningyi’s. Si Tian was a little embarrassed: “I’ll draw it again.”
Ji Ningyi said: “There is no need to draw again. I like this very much. Mom drew me very well.”
He showed a sincere smile, and his eyes were full of tiny rays of light.
Si Tian turned her eyes away, thinking that Ningyi’s filter was too thick.
When Ji Zhile saw that his homework had been drawn, he was very happy. He said that if he handed it to the teacher, he would definitely win a prize. Si Tian had no such idea. As a result, after school, Ji Zhile actually got a small certificate.
It reads: ‘My Family’ painted by Ji Zhile is childlike and lifelike. You are awesome!
After Ji Zhile returned home, he gave the small certificate of award to Si Tian and asked her to read it. Si Tian suppressed her shame and read it several times before finally running away and saying that she was going to cook. Ji Zhile turned his attention to Ji Ningyi: “Where are you going, Brother?”
Ji Ningyi: “…I still have unfinished homework today.”

Translator’s Comment:
Si Tian: Let’s run away!
Ji Ningyi: I want to run away, but what should I say to Zhile? (╯•ᗣ•╰) (╯•ᗣ•╰)
