70s: Raising a Baby

"You already know." Although it was a question, it was an affirmative sentence.

Ye Jinzhi's face froze for a moment, but soon recovered.

During this period, Zhou Guocheng only said this sentence. He lowered his head the whole time, finished drinking the tea in his hand, and played with the tea cup.

The last time he came here, he saw that something was wrong with Ye Jinzhi, and now, looking at her appearance, he no longer had the worries of those days.

Ye Jinzhi couldn't figure out what he meant. It seemed nothing on the face, but his mind was spinning quickly.

Although the two of them were silent, the imposing aura from both sides was invisibly fighting each other.

Think carefully about why he said such ambiguous words.

Although he often sends things home, he doesn't come home often.

Except, last time—

That day happened to be the end of her dream, she already knew the truth, but she hadn't come out of it yet.

"How is it, is there anything you want to ask me?"

Just when Ye Jinzhi thought he couldn't speak, Zhou Guocheng spoke again, still in a completely different tone from just now, so Ye Jinzhi couldn't figure out what he meant.

Ye Jinzhi didn't speak, just stared at him.

She had just carefully recalled what happened in the dream, and there was nothing suspicious about her.

"Don't be afraid, I won't do anything to you." Seeing that Ye Jinzhi was wary of him, Zhou Guocheng quickly comforted her.

"What do you mean?"

After a long time, Ye Jinzhi opened his mouth and asked.

"This has to be said from a long time ago." Zhou Guocheng's eyes were caught in long-term memories, making people unpredictable.

"Actually, I already knew that the eldest brother was not the eldest brother. I knew it the day he left."

Ye Jinzhi recalled carefully, but did not see anything wrong with him the day his father came, and behaved as usual.

"The three of us grew up together. We are familiar with each other's words, deeds, and actions. Knowing each other is more familiar than knowing yourself." Before Ye Jinzhi could speak, Zhou Guocheng had already started talking to himself.

"I thought something was wrong with me the night before, but never figured out what was wrong until—"

"The next morning, when I first saw Big Brother, I knew something was wrong."

After finishing speaking, Zhou Guocheng came back to his senses and looked at her carefully, "Like, you are worthy of being a father and daughter. You and his behavior are very similar, even their tempers are very similar."

Ye Jinzhi was a little surprised. When she attended some occasions before, those who had dealt with her father would say that she was very similar to her father when they saw themselves.

Originally, she had always been dubious. After all, her father had been gone for so many years, how could they still remember it.

"Don't doubt, although you haven't lived with them since you were a child, you are really similar to him," he didn't say where exactly.

"On the contrary, it's 'Zhizhi', not like him, but more like big brother."

These words are ambiguous, and they will be detoured if they are not careful, but Ye Jinzhi knows that he is not talking about her, nor his father.

"Aren't you angry?" Ye Jinzhi heard him talk for so long, and from his language, he could tell that he had a deep relationship with his eldest brother.

Zhou Guocheng smiled bitterly, "Angry, why not?"

"But I already knew there was such a day,"

Ye Jinzhi was shocked, "What do you mean?"

"That's what I've known for a long time. Although the Ye family has continued from ancient times to today, they are still superstitious about many things. The reason why I was so lucky to be chosen to accompany my eldest brother is because my eight characters are in harmony with him."

Ye Jinzhi understands, and is right, not to mention the past, there are a few who are not superstitious in the later generations, and they have to find someone to look at the big and small things in the family.

"But it's true, the fortune teller said that the eldest brother had a disaster when he was ten years old, and I was the only one who could help him heal it,"

"Then," Ye Jinzhi was about to ask.

"But he also said that the eldest brother also had a disaster when he was in his thirties. If he can't hide in the past, he can only see the will of God."

Needless to say, Ye Jinzhi also knew that his parents were here.

There was one thing she was weird about, though.

"Then how do you know I'm not hers?" Ye Jinzhi couldn't figure it out, and what he meant was that he had known him for a long time.

Zhou Guocheng smiled knowingly, he remembered something.

In fact, he was a little unacceptable at the time that he had changed his eldest brother, but after thinking about it carefully, this might be the best way.

"Your parents love you very much. They often tell me about you."

Ye Jinyi was stunned for a moment. Although she saw it in her dream, she heard someone tell you that your parents have not forgotten you, and they even missed you very much, which is a different feeling.

Zhou Guocheng didn't speak, just looked at her quietly, with the elders looking at the younger ones' kindness in his eyes.

Mingming knew it long ago, but now it took Ye Jinzhi a long time to digest, and the tears did not know when the tears fell.

"Drip, drip, drip." The rain outside gradually eased.

"Don't cry child, if your parents know, they will be happy too."

Ye Jinzhi slowly came over and blinked forcefully.

In fact, when she knew that he knew so much, for a moment she had a lot of questions to ask, but now she felt that it was not important anymore, and it was all over.

"Mom, mom." Hearing the voices of several children, Ye Jinzhi quickly wiped away her tears and packed up her emotions.

"Run slowly and watch out for the stairs."

The courtyard is too big, and it took the four children a lot of time to come and go. In addition, it was raining outside, and the clothes were soaked in the rain.

"It's raining?"

"Hehe." The three children were guilty and dared not look at Ye Jinzhi, their eyes dodged.

Ye Jinzhi knew how it was possible for such a light rain to wet his hair so much.

"Come on." He glanced at them angrily.

"Thank you mom." Knowing that Ye Jinzhi was not angry, the three children became lively again.

"They find it troublesome to hold an umbrella, and they don't want to wear a raincoat." The man reported to Ye Jinzhi.

Ayan is young and dare not put him on the ground and walk directly. The ground is a little slippery, so don't fall.

"Mom, rain, rain." Ayan went down to the ground, holding Ye Jinzhi's hand and wanted to go downstairs, he also wanted to play in the water.

"It's not raining anymore, you can't see it raining anymore." Ye Jinzhi took him to the window to watch.

But Ayan ignored her words and pointed his hand at the top of the stairs, he wanted to go down.

"Don't go down, didn't you just come up?" Ye Jinzhi didn't dare to carry him down, he would definitely be treading water once he got down.

"Grandpa Zhou, eat watermelon." The three children had just brought the watermelon, and they didn't need anyone to help them along the way.

"Okay, you can eat too." Zhou Guocheng smiled and patted the three children's heads.

The watermelon has been cut, and the three children each took a piece first.

"Let's eat watermelon, okay?" Ye Jinzhi saw that Ayan was thinking about playing outside and tempted him with things.

Sure enough, when he heard the food, Ayan stopped talking and went straight to the watermelon.

"Yes, brother, yes." I didn't know what it was, so I pointed to the things in the hands of the three brothers.

"That's my brother's, if you want it, it's still on the table." Ye Jinzhi pointed to the watermelon on the table.

When Ayan tiptoed to reach the watermelon, Ye Jinzhi turned around and took his bib over. If he didn't wrap it around, he would be guaranteed to eat all the watermelon juice later.

"Mom, yes." Ayan hasn't reached the watermelon yet.

The person next to him wants to help him, but he doesn't allow it, so he has to take it himself. The problem is that with such short legs, the watermelon is still placed in the middle, and he can't reach it here.

"What should I do?" Ye Jinzhi squatted down and helped him put on the bib.

"Chair." Ah Hao, the narrator, reminded in a low voice, pointing to the narrator's small chair.

This is specially made for Ayan, otherwise his feet will always float in the air when he sits up in other chairs, and he can't reach the ground.

Ayan didn't hear it, he was staring at the watermelon on the table.

Ye Jinzhi didn't know what this stupid son was trying to do. He had to take it himself, and he wasn't happy for others to take it. Maybe it was better for him to take it.

"Mom, can you get one for you?" Ye Jinzhi couldn't bear to see that his saliva was about to flow out.

Who knew that Ayan shook his head vigorously, "No, no." He also grabbed Ye Jinzhi's hand, for fear that she would take it for him.

Seeing him like this, Ye Jinzhi was no longer a good person, so he took a piece of watermelon and ate it next to him.

"Oh, if the watermelon is gone, why do you still have it, Ayan? You won't be able to eat it." Ye Jinzhi said deliberately.

Ayan was in a hurry, and circled around the table, no matter where he could reach, he couldn't reach it, it was just a short distance away.

"Ah, ah, no." Seeing that someone was about to take it again, Ayan couldn't care less about the watermelon, so he hurried to the man's side, hugged him tightly and didn't let him move.

The man is a little helpless, and he doesn't want to grab something from a child, it's all your mother's idea.

Ye Jinzhi gave him a wink just now and asked him to get the watermelon on the table.

"No, no." Ayan's words became more and more clear.

"Okay, okay, I won't take it, I won't take it, I'll leave it to you." The man wore a pendant on his leg, and Ayan held onto his leg tightly.

Who knows, not only did Ayan not let go, but he climbed higher and higher. His small body was quite flexible, grabbing his pants and climbing up.

The man was a little embarrassed. It was not easy for him to walk right now, and he didn't dare to catch him, for fear that he would accidentally hurt him.

He must also always beware of the risk of his pants being pulled down, and he must protect Ayan, lest he accidentally lose his grip and fall off.

Hehehehe climbed up, Ayan was eating watermelon wholeheartedly, and didn't listen to other people's calls at all. When he saw someone trying to arrest him, he shouted angrily.

"Don't, don't touch me, don't." Xiaozui shouted loudly.

The people around were dumbfounded, and they didn't know how he came up with it. They stood there and looked at him like a koala, treating the man's legs as branches.

Fortunately, the table is not high, and it is only a few centimeters away from Ayan. I thought he was going to get the watermelon, but he didn't expect to climb on the table.

"Huh, oops." Climbing onto the table, Xiaozui was still panting loudly, showing that he was very tired.

Everyone would be amused by him. If they hadn't seen the whole process, maybe everyone would still feel sorry for him.

But the fact is that Ayan climbed up a little and fell down a little, but the man couldn't stand it anymore, and slowly raised his legs, not too obvious, and he would be angry when he was found out.

"Uncle, are you tired?" Ah Hao saw his younger brother go up, and ran to the man curiously. It's amazing, this is so cool.

The man understood what he meant and sighed silently.

"Would you like to try?" He couldn't bear to refuse.

That's what Ah Hao was waiting for, "Thank you uncle." It was not polite at all.

"Ahao, uncle is very tired." Ye Jinzhi just instructed Ayan to sit down, otherwise it would be terrible if he accidentally fell off the table.

Who knows, when he turned his head, he saw that Ah Hao had even put it on the man's lap, just like playing on a swing.

"Mom, have a good time, and be taller." Ah Hao was so immersed in the joy of playing that he didn't even notice that his mother's face had changed.

Because of the presence of guests, Ye Jinzhi held back his anger and did not let it out. Children also want face, Ye Jinzhi tried to give them a decent appearance and not punished in front of others.

"Ahao, stop playing, mom is angry."

The two older ones noticed that their mother's expression was not very good, and while her mother was not paying attention, they pulled his clothes and let him down.

"I'll go first." Zhou Guocheng watched for a long time before speaking.

"Ah, so soon?" Ye Jinzhi thought he would stay for dinner.

"I have a meeting to open."

"I'll take you."

A group of people went downstairs. Now the rain has stopped. After a heavy rain, the sky has become very clear. The blue sky and white clouds do not look like it has just rained.

Zhou Guocheng went downstairs, looked at the weather outside, and said something meaningful, "The child is well taken care of by you."

Ye Jinzhi followed his line of sight and saw that Ayan was squatting in a small puddle outside, looking at the reflection inside. The three brothers next to him looked at him, afraid that he would not pay attention and put their hands in.

"The child is still young, he just wants to play." Ye Jinzhi knew that he had noticed A Hao's behavior just now.

She smiled and said nothing.

"Don't send it away." Leaving a sentence, the man followed behind him and sent him out.

Ye Jinzhi withdrew his gaze when he could no longer see their figures.

"Yuan Zhuohao, come here."

A Hao didn't realize at first that Ye Jinzhi was calling him, but he realized that A Xu had stabbed him.

"Mom." Ah Hao was a little scared when he heard such a stern voice from his mother for the first time.

Sometimes Ye Jinzhi's children just simply like to play, and they don't have any malice, they just think it's fun.

"Do you know what you did wrong today?"

Ah Hao nodded, he knew it as early as when his brother reminded him.

"Go to the penalty stand." Ye Jinzhi didn't say much, as long as he knew it, he knew that he did something wrong.

"Hmm." To be honest, they haven't been punished for a long time.

In the past, when my father was at home, his father was angry and forced them to stand up, and his mother would beg for mercy on the side. Ah Hao was a little scared.

"Let's be together, don't be afraid." Ah Zhao thought he was afraid of being punished for standing, so he pulled his hand and told him not to be afraid, they would accompany him.
