After Being Scumbed

The old professor sitting aside was quickly discovered by the children. Tongtong held a piece of the puzzle, looked at Professor Sun with bright eyes, and happily greeted: "Does grandma want to play together?"

A smile appeared on Professor Sun’s face that looked too serious and unpretentious: "I don't play, you guys play."

"Okay!" Tongtong did not force her, and happily continued to puzzle with her two sisters.

Although Professor Sun said not to play, it can be seen that Tongtong and Wenwen are busy looking through the puzzles, and she is also looking for them together. The old professor's eyesight was very good. He found the next piece soon and handed it to the nearest Wenwen: "This."

Wenwen took a look at the puzzle, and her eyes lit up suddenly: "Hey! It really looks like this, try it!" She quickly inserted the puzzle and saw that the big puzzle was completed again. Wenwen was happy He clapped his hands.

She raised her head and smiled with a row of white teeth, and said to Professor Sun, "Thank you, grandma!"

Professor Sun hesitated and stretched out his hand to rub Wenwen's head: "Be good."

Yin Bai, who was squatting between the two children, witnessed the whole process, silently averted his eyes, and turned his attention back to the puzzle. While arranging the puzzles, Yin Bai thought, Zuo Jingyou, the big son, is really interesting.

Next, Yin Bai took the two children to complete a half of the puzzle. Professor Sun on the side said not to participate, but every now and then he handed over a jigsaw puzzle. She didn't say much, the two big and two little ones played very harmoniously.

When Zuo Jingyou received a call from Sun Mingrui, came out of the kitchen and went to the underground garage to help pick up things, and subconsciously glanced at the banquet room on the first floor.

I saw Yin Bai and the two children chattering to compare the puzzles, while Ms. Sun Yulan sat aside, slowly inserting a few words, and the atmosphere was very lively.

Seeing this scene, Zuo Jingyou was a little surprised.

You should know that on weekdays, Zuo Jingyou brought people over, but Professor Sun was so afraid of trouble that he could hide in the study, and would not come out all day.

But now... I guess I want to play with the two kids. It seems that Professor Sun can finally experience a bit of family happiness.

Zuo smiled quietly and walked towards the underground garage.

She had just walked to the garage door when she happened to meet Sun Mingrui and parked the car. Seeing Sun Mingrui getting off the car, Zuo Jingyou hurriedly greeted him: "Sister."

When she saw her sister's short, crisp hair, Zuo Jingyou was taken aback: "Have you cut your hair?"

With a hum, Sun Mingrui walked around to the back seat of the car, opened the trunk, and while taking out the children's new clothes, he said to Zuo Jingyou, "Short hair is more convenient. Does it look good?"

Zuo Jingyou took the bag in her hand and smiled with her eyebrows bent: "It looks good, it suits you."

"Really? I also think that if I knew this, I'll cut it short." Sun Mingrui continued to take out the children's toys, tea and gifts for the mother, and carried things with Zuo Jingyou in large and small bags. Walking upstairs, he asked as he walked, "Where are Wenwen and Tongtong? What are you doing?"

Zuo Jingyou followed Sun Mingrui, whispering softly: "It's playing."

Sun Mingrui was not surprised at all. She turned to ask, "What about mom? Is it in the study?"

Zuo Jingyou shook his head: "No, I'm also playing."

Sun Mingrui was a little surprised: "Mom is so free today? Even playing with these two little ghosts?"

Zuo Jing smiled quietly: "You'll see it later, you won't know."

Sun Mingrui followed Zuo Jingyou up the stairs, and when he reached the first floor, he quickly found a bunch of children on the sofa playing puzzles together.

Sun Mingrui watched for a long time before raising her voice and shouting: "Sun Jingwen!"

When Wenwen heard someone calling her name, she quickly raised her head, and at a glance she saw Sun Mingrui standing not far away. She suddenly widened her eyes and exclaimed: "Mom!"

Wenwen quickly put aside the jigsaw in her hand, ran like a rabbit on her short legs, and rushed towards her mother.

Sun Mingrui put down the things in his hands, bent over and opened his arms to catch Wenwen who came straight towards her like a cannonball, and hugged her in his arms.

Sun Mingrui raised his hand, rubbed Wenwen's little head, and asked her with a smile, "Do you miss your mother?"

"Thinking!" Wenwen hooked her mother's neck, pouting her mouth, and printed several pools of saliva on Sun Mingrui's face.

For a child of Wenwen's age, the weight is really not light. Although Sun Mingrui is a year-round fitness researcher, she can't support her weight. After a while, Sun Mingrui put her down and walked towards Sun Yulan on the sofa.

Dog-legged Wenwen helped her with a gift in one hand, and held her with the other, and went back to her little partner.

Sun Mingrui and Sun Yulan greeted him, hugged Tongtong again, and after squeezing her little head, he turned his eyes back to Yin Bai: "Hello, this is Sun Mingrui, Xiaoyou’s sister, Wenwen’s Mom, are you the one next door?"

Yin Bai's identity is easy to guess. After all, Wenwen and Tongtong mentioned her frequently during the video call.

Yin Bai hadn't answered yet, Wenwen, who was on the side, started to introduce to Yin Bai: "Yes, mother, this is the sister of the next door, my good friend!"

Yin Bai looked down, looked at Wenwen and smiled, then raised his head and stretched out his hand to Sun Mingrui: "Hello, Yin Bai."

Sun Mingrui held Yin Bai's hand and smiled and curled his eyes: "You are welcome to come to my house as a guest!"

After a lot of greetings, Sun Mingrui let them continue to play, and he took the gifts to put them away, and then went to the kitchen to help Zuo Jingyou make dinner.

Not long after she left, there was another murmur of discussion in the living room, which sounded elated.

Sun Mingrui shook his head, walked into the kitchen and put on an apron, standing in front of the cooking table and handling ingredients with Zuo Jingyou. The faucet rushed, and the conversation from the living room could be faintly heard. Sun Mingrui sighed, and while helping to wash the vegetables, he said, "I know why Wenwen and Tongtong always go to the next house."

Zuo Jingyou smiled and asked her: "Why?"

Sun Mingrui sighed and said: "The neighbor next door is really interesting and patient. You also know Wenwen's energy, like a monkey, she doesn't stop playing. Before, I didn't have much energy to play with her. Now when I come to Ma, there is someone next door who can accompany her to have fun. Can't she run over every day?"

Zuo Jingyou chuckled, and then nodded seriously: "You are right, but the more important thing is that she is really interesting. It is the kind of rare and pure person."

Sun Mingrui tilted his head and looked at Zuo Jingyou and said, "You have a high opinion of your new friend. But speaking of it, your friend is really beautiful."

"The skin is white, the hair is thick and black, the eyelashes are very long, the eyes are big, the pupils are very beautiful, and she looks like a delicate princess."

Sun Mingrui paused, and asked curiously: "Is she a mixed-race? It depends on her looks, she is biased towards Eastern Europe."

Zuo Jingyou nodded: "Yes, three-quarters of the foreign ancestry is biased towards Eastern Europe."

Sun Mingrui was clear: "Oh~ it turned out to be the little princess of Eastern Europe." Sun Mingrui rarely joked and said with emotion, "It's no wonder that the children like her so much. Don't look at Tongtong so behaved. I used to When she finds out, she especially likes good-looking ones."

Zuo Jingyou was a little bit dumbfounded: "Why, don't talk about her like that."

Sun Mingrui put the washed vegetables into the basket to dry, watching Zuo Jingyou who was marinating the roast chicken, and said: "Where is it, Tongtong is up to you, and you like to look good. You have grown up, Are you so happy to see good-looking ones?"

Zuo Jingyou was a little helpless: "Sister, good, you said Tongtong, why did you bother me again."

Sun Mingrui sighed: "Who makes you so superficial. Oh... by the way... I remember it!"

Zuo Jingyou was puzzled: "What do you think of?"

Sun Mingrui leaned into her ear and said mysteriously: "I just wondered why my mother was so free today and would like to play with those two monkey kids. Now speaking of your friends, I understand."

Zuo Jingyou blinked, looking at her sister unclearly, "What do you understand?"

Sun Mingrui sighed, "Don't you think that Mom also likes good-looking people? Do you remember that you brought a friend home from high school, and did your mom praise others for being good-looking? I see, she thinks Yin Bai is good-looking, so Willing to stay with them."

Zuo Jingyou lowered his eyes and chuckled, and said helplessly: "Sister, you really are... even mom arranges..." Zuo Jingyou paused, and glanced at Sun Mingrui: "But well... I also thought of going with you. "

Sun Mingrui blinked: "Yes, Mom just likes to look good."

Zuo Jingyou pursed his lips and nodded. The two sisters looked at each other and both laughed.

They were talking in the kitchen, and the four people outside the living room had almost completed the puzzle.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Zuo Jingyou asked the children to take a bath. Yin Bai and Professor Sun each took a sofa and read a book without anyone.

Professor Sun was reluctant to say that Yin Bai was actually the same, perhaps because of the same aura, but Yin Bai did not feel as embarrassed as usual. When the children finish taking a bath, the New Year's Eve dinner will begin.

Chinese New Year in the city, the customs are not so exquisite. After the family had a lively meal, Professor Sun took out the red envelopes and distributed them to the juniors in the family.

Even Yin Bai, who was a guest, received a copy. Yin Bai was flattered and said very excitedly: "Thank you!" Tian is pitiful, since grandma passed away, she has never received red envelopes from her elders, nor has she eaten such a lively New Year's Eve dinner.

Maybe she was so happy that Professor Sun smiled and gave her another copy. Yin Bai still wanted to decline. Professor Sun paused and said softly: "I liked the screen this morning, and I thank you too."

Compared to the initial horror, Professor Sun has already found the comfortable feeling of having a conversation with his two daughters, and his words have become much smoother.

Yin Bai no longer declined, and happily accepted another red envelope.

It's just that she didn't notice. Zuo Jingyou on the side saw this scene and glanced at the opposite Sun Mingrui. There was a kind of tacit smile that only understood between sisters in his eyes.

After sending out the red envelopes, Zuo Jingyou turned on the TV and watched the Spring Festival Gala with her family. According to the past, Zuo Jingyou might also go to the party, but she didn't have any works in recent years, so she rejected it. At this time, she was at home with her family at ease.

Watching the Spring Festival Gala is a bit boring for the children, Wenwen proposed to play Monopoly, and everyone agreed. So the whole family took Yin Bai and gathered around the TV, listening to the Spring Festival Gala playing Monopoly.

Although Zuo Jingyou didn't go to the party during the Spring Festival this year, Lin Xiao did. The scandals in the first half of the year did not seem to affect him. With He Zhiwen's resources, he still appeared in front of the people across the country.

Not only Lin Xiao, but even Xiao Nian gathered with a group of small fresh meat and sang a song together. Hearing the familiar voice, Yin Bai glanced at the TV subconsciously. But it was only a glance, and she withdrew her gaze and continued to play Monopoly.

New Year's Eve, how could she lose the game? For the luck of the whole year, she must win!

The children played late, and Yin Bai accompanied them to set off small fireworks on the lawn, which ended the party tonight.

Twelve o'clock has passed. After coaxing the children to sleep, Yin Bai walked home on crutches. Yeheilujing, Yin Bai's legs and feet are inconvenient, Zuo Jingyou sent her to her door.

When Yin Bai opened the door to enter, Zuo Jingyou gave the small gift box in her hand: "This is for you, a New Year's gift."

Yin Bai laughed. She accepted the gift and happily said, "Thank you."

Zuo Jingyou urged her to enter the door: "You go in quickly, and be careful when you go back."

Yin Bai nodded, took out his mobile phone, and said to Zuo Jingyou, "Don't worry, my house is very bright." After she finished speaking, she took out her mobile phone and turned on all the power buttons in the house.

In an instant, the villa shrouded by night lights up instantly. Resplendent light came out from the windows, and the surrounding area was bright.

Zuo Jingyou looked up at the lit villa, then glanced at Yin Bai who was standing in front of him, and said with a smile: "Then I won't see you off, I'll go back first."

Yin Bai nodded: "Well, good night, Teacher Zuo!"

Zuo Jingyou responded with a smile: "Good night..." She paused, and added: "Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year!"

Zuo Jingyou turned around and walked towards his home. She walked to the door of her house, turned her head subconsciously, looked in Yin Bai's direction, and saw the person still standing under the street lamp at a glance.

Zuo Jingyou didn't expect Yin Bai to stand still watching her, and was stunned.

Soon, Yin Bai under the light seemed to find her looking over and waved to her: "Teacher Zuo, happy new year! Congratulations on getting rich!"

In the night, Yin Bai, with cold skin, stood under a street lamp with a cane and turned his back to a brightly lit villa. Inexplicably, Zuo Jingyou felt that she was like a little prince who couldn't leave her castle—the little prince who was cursed to be a beast in the fairy tale.

Zuo Jingyou's heartstrings moved slightly, and she laughed, she also waved to Yin Bai, turned and walked into her house.

As she walked home, she kept thinking of Yin Bai standing under the lamp, thinking in her heart that perhaps she hadn't lived so badly this year.

At the beginning of this year, she found out that her husband had cheated and divorced her daughter, and was approached by Xiaosan, thinking that it would be an unfortunate beginning of life. But the fact is not the case, because she quickly got investment, finished filming the first director's film in her life, and met a very interesting friend.

This kind of thing in life...I haven't experienced it thoroughly, how can I know if it is fortunate or unfortunate?

At least for the moment, Zuo Jingyou feels very lucky. Because she feels that in the new year, she will have a better life.
