The whole family went crazy after reading my mind, and I became a favorite after eating melons

Chapter 16 Three Years
  Xu Yanhe held Xu Zhiyan in a very casual manner, but Hua Rong could see that this way of holding the girl was not only not uncomfortable but also safe.

She was relieved.

"Okay, then you two should keep in touch and develop a relationship, so that my daughter won't recognize you when you come back from your next trip. When will you set off for your next trip?"

Xu Yanhe thought for a moment and said, "The first day of next month."

He loves the great places outside, but he still has a little sister at home, so he is still willing to stay a little longer.

But no matter how long he stayed, he had to leave. On the day he was about to leave, he deliberately avoided Xu Zhiyan and left quietly. However, no matter how calmly he stayed, Xu Zhiyan would still find out.

"Wow--"

Xu Zhiyan cried heartbreakingly at the top of her lungs.

Hua Rong was so coaxed that he was exhausted.

"Nanny, be good, don't cry, or you will get sick if you keep crying. Your second brother will be back soon, and he will bring you fun things when he comes back!"

How could Xu Zhiyan, who was so emotional now, be so easily coaxed by these words? She cried for a long time, her voice became hoarse, and she finally stopped crying.

Hua Rong breathed a sigh of relief.

Skillfully wiped her tears and patted her back.

"Okay, okay, Haobao is fine. The second brother will be back soon. Let's go and play with the third brother first. After a while, the weather won't be so hot, and we will go find the eldest brother again."

With the eldest brother and the third brother attracting attention, Xu Zhiyan easily believed the words "the second brother will be back soon", but the so-called "soon" meant three years.

In the past three years, Xu Zhiyan has grown from a baby to a three-year-old girl with small breasts. She is still unsteady when walking, but her little mouth is very eloquent.

Just like today, knowing that her second brother would come back, she happily kept thinking about Hua Rong for a long time. When she got tired of thinking about Hua Rong, she went to find Xu Yanqing.

"Ah ah ah ah, Xu Xiaoyan, you are only three years old, why are you so verbose? Will you become a verbose old woman when you get older?"

Xu Yanqing was so dizzy from being recited that she couldn't bear it anymore, so she covered her ears and broke down and shouted.

Xu Zhiyan pouted and put her hands on her hips.

"I'm not very nagging, I just miss my second brother so much. My second brother hasn't been back for a long time. Last time I wrote a letter saying that he would bring me lots of delicious food when he comes back this time!"

She opened her hands in a big circle, and her excited little feet couldn't help but tap.

Last time Xu Yanhe came back, she was still young and couldn't drink anything except milk, and she could only look at or hold toys. But this time it was different. She could eat a lot of delicious food and play with it herself.

[I hope my second brother will bring me a roast chicken. 】

Xu Zhiyan was so greedy for herself that she took a sip of saliva.

Xu Yanqing, who was standing next to her, sighed, let go and flicked her forehead, "You know how to eat, just like we usually do without you."

"It's different. It's usual. This time it's a gift from my second brother."

Xu Zhiyan frowned and explained seriously.

"Okay, okay." Xu Yanqing spread his hands and then extended an invitation, "I want to go out to buy candied haws on a stick. Do you want to go with me? My second brother won't get home until night anyway."

Xu Zhiyan was instantly convinced.

She took the initiative to hold his hand and jumped out of the door.

The candied haws they often eat is sold by an old man. The old man carries the stick and walks around every day. If you are lucky, you can meet him when you go out. If you are not lucky, you will have to walk for a long time to find it.

Today they both had similar luck. They found someone after just walking down the street.

"Grandpa, we want two bunches of candied haws."

Xu Zhiyan spoke abruptly, then eagerly stood on tiptoes to reach for it.

"Little dwarf." Xu Yanqing teased her with a smile, and easily picked out a bunch of candied haws and handed it to her. She didn't care if he said she was short because she had candied haws, and happily licked the sugar coating on the outside of the haws.

After licking one, she raised her head and found that she was not on the way home. She didn't panic and looked up at Xu Yanqing.

"Third brother, do you want to take me to eat something delicious?"

Xu Yanqing looked down at her.

"You little brat, all you can think about is food?"

"Of course not, there are brothers and mother!"

His eyes flashed, he stopped, squatted down to look at her level, and held her hands, "Why don't you have a father?"

Xu Zhiyan's eyes were firm, "Because he is bad!"

When not facing Xu Ziying, Xu Zhiyan didn't even want to call her father against her will.

Xu Yanqing is not a fool. Over the years, he has learned a lot from his sister's voice. But at first, he felt that he could hear her voice and was the chosen one. Now, he only feels that knowing too much is not a good thing.

He let out a long sigh.

"Okay, that's enough explanation. Now let's go eat roast duck."

【Roast Duck? 】

Xu Zhiyan's eyes lit up, she raised her head and looked around. Sure enough, she saw a roast duck restaurant. Across the street, she seemed to see the duck that was roasted in the right color and sizzling with oil. She sipped her saliva fiercely and pulled it. He went straight to the store.

"Boss, we want one, oh no, two, one to eat here and one to take away!"

She held up two round fingers.

Xu Yanqing looked at her in disbelief.

"You are so small and you want to eat two ducks? No, you will burst."

He was about to ask the boss to make only one, but Xu Zhiyan jumped up and pulled her shirt down hard, interrupting her speech, "The one I brought back is just for my second brother, I will only eat the one here!"

Xu Yanqing teased her deliberately.

"Really? I don't believe it."

Xu Zhiyan was so worried that her duck was flying, and she stamped her feet angrily. Fortunately, Xu Yanqing knew what it meant to give up when things were good, so he not only did not provoke her anymore, but also made her happy with a few words.

By the time she came home after eating the duck, she had put aside all the unhappiness she had just felt and was so happy holding his hand.

This heartless look made Xu Yanqing angry and happy at the same time.

Angry at her for being careless.

I'm glad she didn't mean anything.

He himself felt conflicted. Just when he was thinking about explaining his state of mind to his sister, he saw her throw away his hand and run forward staggeringly.

"You are the second brother, right? You look exactly like the portrait. Second brother, give me a hug, give me a hug!"

The little guy was short of breath. He had to pause when he said a few words, and his sentences were broken into pieces.

Xu Yanhe didn't expect that she could recognize him at a glance, and he went up to her in surprise and picked her up, "I'm holding this baby in my arms. Her head looks small and her memory is pretty good. How long ago was it last time I sent a portrait?" , do you remember?"

Xu Zhiyan's short little arms were wrapped around his neck, and her round little face was firmly pressed against his jawline, "Second brother sent me the portrait a long time ago, but I look at that portrait every day."

Ouch, who is so sweet to be so good?

Xu Yanhe kissed her softly on the face several times, then waved for Xu Yanqing to come over, and the three of them entered the house together.
