Marriage Crisis: Lonely Apricot Blossom

Chapter 23
The high-speed train was moving forward quickly, and a large area of ​​green crops passed by. The rich colors in the field made Duo Duo, who was only four years old, amazed.

Yan Jia unscrewed the lid of the small hellokitty kettle, handed it over, and told her daughter, "Duoduo, drink some water."

Duoduo took it without looking back, took two sips from the straw, and handed it back to her mother, but she still didn't look back, but she stretched out her hand in the wrong direction, and instead of handing the water bottle to Yan Jia, she handed it to Fang Zhenqian.

Fang Zhenqian raised his head from the pages of the magazine, and naturally reached out to take it. Duoduo was sensitive and sensed something was wrong. He turned his head and saw that it was his father, and immediately withdrew his hand, "I want my mother to help me."

Yan Jia frowned, "Isn't it the same for Dad?"

Dodo was very stubborn, pouted and acted like a baby, "No, I want my mother to keep it for me."

Fang Zhenqian said: "You gave it to mom, and mom will still give it to me later, why don't I just hold it for you!"

Duoduo rolled her eyes at him, raised her hand, passed her father, and the kettle was still in her mother's hand.

Yan Jia was dissatisfied and whispered to the other party: "You are her father, you should also gain some prestige in front of her. If this continues, even I will not be able to control her in the future. What should I do?"

Fang Zhen smiled dryly, and hugged her lightly, "Don't all daughters have to be spoiled like this? Your father never blushed with you when you were young."

Yan Jia thinks about it too, "But she is not at all like when I was a child..."

While she was rambling about describing the scene when she was a child, Hangzhou arrived.

Five years ago, Yan Jia followed Fang Zhenqian back to City S and started from scratch.

At the beginning, they often came to Hangzhou to visit Aju's family when they were free. Aju and Tang Bo had a daughter named Tangtang, whom Yan Jia liked very much. Every time they came, they would bring many beautiful clothes for Tangtang.

Later, Yan Jia also gave birth to a lovely daughter Dodo. After having a child, she could no longer return to Hangzhou diligently. She and Aju could only communicate with each other through the Internet, and exchanged parenting experiences from time to time.

Yan Jia always has more problems than Aju, which makes her wonder if there is something wrong with her education, why the naughty Duodu always gets her into trouble, and Tangtang in Aju's mouth is always very obedient .

The two families also often said that they wanted to meet each other, and let the two little girls know each other by the way. City S and Hangzhou are not too far away, but such a simple wish was not realized until four years later.

Tang Bo and Aju drove to pick up their family, and Tangtang naturally accompanied them.She hugged a fashionable Barbie doll and shyly gave it to Dodo as a gift, and Dodo immediately fell in love with her quiet sister.

The two sisters were sitting in the corner of the car, braiding the doll's hair together, Yan Jia and Aju were crowded beside them, and they had been chatting about various gossips for a long time. Fortunately, both adults and children were thin, and the seats were fairly sparse. Fang Zhenqian sat in the passenger seat In fact, due to the economic differences between the two places with Tang Bokan, the three groups of people have their own place.

We talked about going to the West Lake today.

Always have a full stomach before playing, so Tang Bo booked a box in the hotel to entertain the distinguished guests from afar.

After ordering food, drinks are served first. Tang Bo has to drive and cannot drink, so he ordered a glass of kiwi fruit juice. Tangtang looked at him with envy in his eyes. Duo Duo took a sip of his own orange juice and turned to look at Tangtang. , "Sister, why don't you drink?"

While the adults were chatting, Tangtang secretly pointed out kiwi juice to her, "Have you ever drank that? I don't know what it tastes like?"

Dodo understood immediately, slipped off the table, turned to Tang Bo, and said, "Uncle, sister likes to drink this." Picked up his kiwi juice and left.

Tang Bo was dumbfounded, and looked at Fang Zhenqian. He didn't respond, but Yan Jia explained embarrassingly, "She's like this at home." He made a face, and said to Duo Duo, "Duo Duo, return it to uncle!"

Duoduo turned a deaf ear to it, and put the peach juice in front of Tangtang graciously, "You drink it."

Tangtang didn't dare, and handed it back to her father.

Yan Jia's eyes were almost red, "Aju, how did you teach this child, how can you be so sensible!"

Dodo, however, with her hips akimbo, glared at Tang Bo unconvinced.

Tang Bo smiled and said, "Look, it's not that I don't want to give it to you, it's that my sister didn't want it and gave it back to me."

Tangtang was drinking orange juice with his head down, and Duoduo frowned, not knowing the situation, so he had to sniff his little nose, and climbed up the chair sullenly.

But she soon became happy again, because the leg of lamb they ordered was not coming up, Tang Bo got up to urge, Duo Duo lifted the tablecloth and got under the table, and then came out from the other end after a while, shouting at Tang Tang, "I It smells like leg of lamb, and here's the leg of lamb! My father's leg is leg of lamb!"

Tangtang pursed her lips and smiled.

Aju said to Yan Jia: "Your daughter, you look like a little Huang Rong!"

During the West Lake tour in the afternoon, Dodo spent most of the time chatting with Tangtang, but when she encountered a rockery, she had to climb it, and she was timid, so she opened her mouth and shouted, "Dad, come here!"

As soon as Fang Zhenqian heard the order, he would immediately run over to hold her little hand and give her the necessary climbing support.

"Mr. Fang of your family is really considerate of the children!" Aju couldn't help but sigh.

Fang Zhenqian just heard it, turned his head and smiled and said, "My main duty now is to take good care of their mother and daughter."

Aju suddenly became unbalanced, and shouted at Tang Bo, "Listen, listen!"

Tang Bo hurriedly talked about other things, so that Aju had nothing to do with him.

After landing safely, Duoduo proudly told Tangtang, "Our mother is the eldest, I am the second child, and father is the third child! How about your family?"

Tangtang looked at her father, then at her mother, and whispered, "It's just the other way around..."

It's almost dusk.

The two families found a place with a good view on the edge of the West Lake to take a rest.

The two men took advantage of the momentum and walked away to smoke, while the girl sat on the lawn and played with all kinds of gadgets brought out of the travel bag.

Yan Jia and Aju were sitting side by side, facing the West Lake. Aju had some troubles recently, so she just took this opportunity to tell Yan Jia.

During the chat, Yan Jia heard Duoduo's advice to Tangtang, "I put the stickers in this small bag, don't miss it next time, remember?"

"Yes." Tangtang agreed with a low eyebrow.

Yan Jia frowned, "Duoduo, who is the older sister between you and Tangtang?"

She intended to teach her a lesson, but when Duo Duo raised her eyes, there was real confusion in her eyes, "I don't know either."

Aju giggled, even Yan Jia was also annoyed.

"Are you doting on this girl?" Aju asked.

"Oh!" Yan Jia was really distressed, "I want to be Yan's mother, but I can't harden my heart." She glanced at Fang Zhenqian in the distance, "Let's not mention him. He doesn't have much time at home. When he comes back, he sees his daughter and comforts her. It's too late, how can I be willing to discipline him, but Dodo doesn't take him seriously."

Aju looked at her, "Yan Jia, I actually envy you. Your old family really has nothing to say to you. After going through so many things, they still pursue you persistently. After remarriage, they treat you and your daughter well." They're all so good, I don't know how many men in the world are like him."

Yan Jia smiled, "Do you know why he did this?"

"Well, why?"

"Because only with me can he gain inner peace." Yan Jia smiled at the slowly setting sun, "Inner peace is happiness."

She turned to look at Aju, "Me too."

Aju stared at her blankly, as if she had realized something.

Beside them, Tangtang and Dodo didn't know what to say, laughter came like silver bells, one after another.
