Chapter 89 (1/2)
When Xie liaosha opened his eyes, he thought it was a fine day.
The sun was tickling on his eyelashes through the gauze. It's been weeks since his birthday, and he shouldn't have been in such a good mood, but today is a special day.
He had been looking forward to it for almost a year. So he got up quickly and ran to his parents' bedroom barefoot before he could even wait to wash.
He knocked on the door, then unscrewed the door lock. He ran over and saw that his mother had already got up. His father seemed to have gone to bed late yesterday and didn't even know that he had come in.
Xie liaosha came down from the bed, stepped on the soft Egyptian carpet, raised his index finger to a corner of the room, and put it on the edge of his lips, as if to remind the sun to jump lightly and not wake his father up.
He stood on tiptoe like a cat and retreated slowly.
As soon as he closed the bedroom door, Xie liaosha noticed the movement not far behind him.
His smile was faster than his voice. As soon as he turned around, his mouth was like two bright little suns, and his big blue eyes were bent.
”Mom.”
Xie liaosha wanted to make a mouth, but he was so happy that he couldn't help but make a voice.
He hopped happily like a deer, with his new hooves, and ran towards his mother as quietly as he could.
”Do you remember? Do you remember? ” He couldn't help repeating that the whole man was in Anna's arms, and his tangled curly hair made him look like he had just come out of some nest in the forest.
Anna adjusted the little boy's white nightgown. The latter didn't realize that his underwear was still outside!
”Remember what?” Anna asked deliberately, and made fun of Xie liaosha's appearance just now.
The little boy's cheeks were red, but he soon forgot about it. He had more important things to do now.
”That one! How could you forget it? ” He pursed his lips, apparently in disbelief.
”I'm too busy. What is it?” Anna is still teasing her son, looking at him a little anxious, and in the heart and secretly happy.
Xie liaosha tried to think about it and clapped his hands: ”it's zongzi!” He said he was happy to think of the name.
The boy's hands are swinging, imitating the shape of zongzi he saw last year.
”There are some sharp corners, wrapped in it, soft and sweet.”
”It's green!”
He tried to recall the characteristics of zongzi, so that his mother can recall. When I was young, I didn't feel impatient. It seems that the mother has forgotten that zongzi is not the reason why he can be angry, but to help his mother recall is the most important thing.
”I didn't forget. I remember.” Anna finally decided not to tease her little boy. She gave him a kiss on his white face.
Xie liaosha was relieved to hear his mother remember what zongzi looked like. He didn't blame his mother for teasing him like that, just a simple smile.
”We'll still do it today, right?” He asked his mother, a pair of big eyes like a deer, with a little request, more wet, like to say, ”how interesting it is, will you refuse me?”.
”Yes, baby, of course we can make zongzi. You've been looking forward to it all year, haven't you?”
Xie liaosha was embarrassed to smile. He felt that it might be a little immature for a boy of his age to expect anything, but he still couldn't refuse the delicious rice dumplings.
”Next year I'll try to be less excited like a six-year-old boy.” He said solemnly to his mother, but in exchange for more kinship.
”I suggest you put on your shoes and wash them. You can do it yourself, right?” Anna asked her little boy, who moved her tender white toes and laughed a little shyly.
”Ah, yes, mom, I can.” After that, he kisses his mother on the cheek again, and goes to his room with some satisfaction, like a happy fawn who has got many fresh leaves and berries.
By the time Anna saw his little boy again, he was already familiar with dressing up.
”Did you choose this dress for yourself?” Anna asked deliberately when his little boy was looking at her with his dog's eyes.
”What's wrong with it?”
Xie liaosha looked a little nervous, and even looked down, so that he would not be embarrassed to find that he didn't put his shirt in.
Anna started by imitating her husband's face, but after the boy blinked a little uneasy and confused, she finally couldn't help laughing.
”You're not going out today, but you're dressed so well that I can't recognize you!” She said with a smile.Xie liaosha is also shy to smile, showing a pair of lovely dimples.
”I like it. I like blue, mom.”
”You like it almost every year, but I think they're a little bit short, and you'll need a bigger one next year.”
”That's not good. I like them.” Xie liaosha touched his clothes. He was a child who cherished things very much. Although he loved new clothes like ordinary children, he felt that he couldn't let go of the unique cotton stiffness and comfort of old clothes.
”It means you've grown tall.” Mothers comfort their children.
Xie liaosha could only sigh softly, then nodded, indicating that he would accept the fact.
Anna took seliosa to the kitchen. The cook had already prepared the things. Anushika was already waiting.
