Although the scenery of Luming Mountain is beautiful, but it is near the sea and the air is humid. Mr. Huo is not in good health and cannot stay for long.
Huo Xiaoxiao is young, has poor resistance, and is playful. She is worried that she will catch a cold and have a fever if the sea breeze blows for a long time, so it is not suitable to stay for a long time.
Although Huo Xiaoxiaoyi justly patted his chest and said that he was in good health and would not get sick, he still used her health as an excuse to carry him home mercilessly.
Soon, Mr. Huo Lao announced his official retirement and handed over the company's heavy responsibility to Huo Suicheng's shoulders.
At the same time, the Luming Mountain project jointly launched by Huoshi and Yishi was officially launched.
For the project, Huo Suicheng was almost too busy to go home for several days in a row. Just when Huo Xiaoxiao thought he had a chance to breathe, Huo Mansion opened up a studio, and the art teacher was invited to teach at the door, and began to study Huo Suicheng. Carry out the cultivation of art cells in a small way.
However, although art teachers have high artistic attainments, they will inevitably become ordinary people.
She was the same as the servants of the Huo family. When she saw the painting of a family of three painted by Huo Xiaoxiao in Luming Mountain that is now hanging in Huo Suicheng's room, she was full of praise and was shocked.
From the praise of the art teacher, Huo Xiaoxiao even felt that her painting talent might be comparable to Da Vinci.
Sorry for insulting Da Vinci.
Under the constant coaxing and deception by Mr. Huo and the art teacher and the bombardment of sugar-coated shells, Huo Xiaoxiao's interest in painting is not bad.
"Xiaoxiao's drawing is awesome, yes, that's it, but can you tell the teacher why you painted the sky in green?"
Huo Xiaoxiao glanced at her, drew a red sun in the blank lower left corner, and turned the drawing board upside down.
"I painted grass."
"..." The art teacher looked back at Mr. Huo and smiled awkwardly.
Huo Xiaoxiao also looked back at Mr. Huo eagerly, "Grandpa, I want to go out to play."
She is not the kind of person who is idle, and it has been two months since she went to Luming Mountain last time.
In the past two months, due to the old man's health, the number of doctors' visits to the house has increased significantly, and he has repeatedly asked Mr. Huo to rest.
In addition, Huo Suicheng is busy with the company, so no one dares to take her out for a walk.
Huo Xiaoxiao was listless all day long.
Mr. Huo has been feeling powerless recently, "In two days, I will take you out to play in two days, okay?"
Huo Xiaoxiao nodded.
After the tutoring was over, the teacher specially chatted with Mr. Huo before leaving.
"Old man, Xiaoxiao is very smart and talented in some new things. IQ and EQ are much higher than children of the same age. I don't think she is suitable for tutoring now. With her current mood and state, I suggest that you can It’s not good for a child to start being around kids her age or a little older than her.”
Mr. Huo nodded, agreeing with the teacher's words.
When Huo Suicheng came back in the afternoon, Mr. Huo talked with him about this matter and proposed to send Xiao Xiao to the kindergarten.
Huo Suicheng objected to this, "Is it too early to send kindergarten at the age of two?"
"You are busy with work all day long, and the doctor asked me to rest. Others take her out for a walk, but you don't feel at ease. You think two years old is too early, so let's make it older. Two and a half years old, what do you think?"
Huo Suicheng thought for a while, but didn't answer for a while.
Mr. Huo sighed, "There is no woman in the family." After finishing speaking, he put his eyes on Huo Suicheng, "You..."
"..." Huo Suicheng responded, "Then listen to you and send it to kindergarten."
He lowered his head and looked at the time, "I have a banquet tonight, I guess I'll be back later, you should go to bed early."
"Banquet? What kind of banquet?"
"Mr. Yi's birthday party today, you forgot?"
Mr. Huo suddenly realized, "Look at my memory, I almost forgot. Since it is a birthday banquet, Xiaoxiao can also go on this occasion. In this way, you take Xiaoxiao with you. She is still telling me today that she wants to go out. Play."
Huo Suicheng thought for a while and refused, "Next time."
But Huo Xiaoxiao, who was eavesdropping behind the door, heard it.
Well, got caught by her.
You can go out and play without her.
He must have disliked her for being small and troublesome.
Huo Xiaoxiao looked upset and wanted to open the door and ask her father, why didn't she take her out to play if it was fun!
But after thinking about it, just pushing the door open like this, whether her father will take her or not.
No, she has to find a way.
There was the sound of footsteps in the room.
Huo Xiaoxiao went downstairs in a hurry, and saw the door of the co-pilot of the car parked at the door was open, and sneaked into the co-pilot when no one was paying attention.
It is more than enough for a child to get into the footrest of the co-pilot. In order to prevent the driver and her father from finding out, she also took off a black briefcase on the co-pilot to block herself.
In this way, the lights in the car are dim, so you won't be able to spot her!
What a genius!
Huo Xiaoxiao secretly rejoiced, and heard the sound of the rear door being opened, and then the door closed, and Xiao Wu in the driver's seat drove slowly out of Huo's mansion.
The vehicle moves smoothly on the road.
"In two days, you can find a few kindergartens, check the information and level, and leave it to me."
"kindergarten?"
Huo Suicheng's voice came from the back row, "The old man is not in good health, and I don't have much time recently, so I'd better send Xiaoxiao to kindergarten."
When Huo Xiaoxiao, who was in the co-pilot, heard Huo Suicheng's words, his heart skipped a beat.
It's over, it's over, what she's most worried about is finally about to happen.
Although the days in Huo Mansion are boring now, it is better than going to kindergarten to learn one plus one all day long.
Thinking of playing mud with a group of little kids all day long in the near future, she was in a bad mood.
"Okay, I'll sort out the information and give it to you as soon as possible."
"Ok."
No sound after answering.
Huo Xiaoxiao squatted in the co-pilot and was about to come out when Huo Suicheng's cell phone rang.
After answering the answer, Huo Suicheng frowned, and raised his voice, "What? Xiaoxiao disappeared? Have you looked everywhere? Why did he disappear?"
"Xiao Wu, turn around and go back to Huo's mansion."
As soon as the words fell, Huo Xiaoxiao climbed out from the co-pilot, knelt on the co-pilot and hugged the back of the seat, as if to surprise Huo Suicheng, "Dad, I'm here!"
Xiao Wu saw her climb out of the co-pilot with his own eyes, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
How dangerous it is to hide under there. Once the car is stopped on the road, there will be an accident, which is simply unimaginable.
Huo Suicheng's face changed drastically, and he hugged Huo Xiaoxiao from the co-pilot, and suddenly lost his temper and angrily said: "Huo Xiaoxiao, who told you to hide that!"
After finishing speaking, he said to the mobile phone: "Uncle Chen, please tell Dad not to worry, Xiaoxiao is here with me."
After saying a few more words, he hung up the phone.
A gust of cold air hit, Huo Xiaoxiao trembled and shuddered. She was not sure about her father's attitude, but she still forced herself to smile and leaned over, "Dad, are you angry?"
Huo Suicheng's face was displeased, "Xiao Wu, go back first."
This is to send her back.
Huo Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth.
Pity is not enough to gather tears, and tears are not enough to grab with hands.
She secretly tugged at her inner thigh, tears of pain came out immediately.
"Did Dad despise me?"
"Who told you to hide it in the car?"
"I... I heard it all, grandpa asked you to take me there, but...but you hate me, I'm a troublemaker, don't take me there!"
"You can hide in the car without taking you there? Who taught you? Do you know how dangerous it is?"
Huo Suicheng was not a little angry. Seeing Huo Xiaoxiao climbed out of the co-pilot, he broke into a cold sweat with fear, and his breathing is still not smooth.
I didn't dare to think about what kind of accident would happen to a two-year-old child hiding in the co-pilot if Xiao Wu braked suddenly, or if something happened.
Looking at Huo Suicheng's stern eyebrows, Huo Xiaoxiao knew that she had probably offended her father's Ni Lin, her eyes blinked, and tears fell down with a snap.
She hugged Huo Suicheng's arm and wiped all her tears on Huo Suicheng's suit, choked up and said: "Dad, I'm sorry, I just want... want to go out with Dad... but Dad hates me."
Seeing that Huo Suicheng was still indifferent, Huo Xiaoxiao simply sat on Huo Suicheng's lap and reached out to smooth the wrinkles between Huo Suicheng's eyebrows, "Dad, don't hate me."
These coquettish words made Huo Xiaoxiao feel goosebumps all over his body.
Being a daughter is so hard.
Huo Suicheng gritted his back molars tightly, and when the soft touch touched the brow, he let go helplessly.
"If you were a boy, I'd beat you here right now."
Violence!
Huo Suicheng took a deep breath, hugged Huo Xiaoxiao with one hand, looked at the tears on her face, and wiped her with the square towel in the pocket of her jacket.
"I haven't seen Dad for a long time, I miss Dad."
"... Forget it, go directly to the banquet."
Xiao Wu glanced in the rearview mirror and saw Huo Xiaoxiao leaning on Huo Suicheng's chest, with a successful smile on his side face, he was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but be speechless.
"OK."
Half an hour later, the car stopped at the gate of Yi's old house.
When getting out of the car, Huo Xiaoxiao grabbed Huo Suicheng's tie and asked him, "Dad, are you still angry?"
Without saying a word, Huo Suicheng got out of the car and walked in with her in his arms, and said abruptly: "Don't be angry, I will settle accounts with you when I go back."
"..." Huo Xiaoxiao suddenly regretted today's impulse.
When I go back at night, I will probably have to be nagged by my grandpa for a while.
Huo Suicheng came late to Mr. Yi's birthday banquet, but he was not the only one who brought the child to the scene.
Elderly people like children, so they want to have fun on their birthdays.
"Mr., I wish you good luck like Donghai Shoubi Nanshan. This is a little wish my father asked me to bring. You accept it."
Mr. Yi was over seventy years old, but he was still strong, and he didn't shirk it, he accepted the gift directly, looked at the little girl Huo Suicheng was holding, guessed who it was, and smiled to tease her.
"What's your name?"
"Huo Xiaoxiao."
"How old?"
"Almost two years old."
"Then you are one year younger than Yi Qian, do you know Yi Qian? He is my grandson, do you want to make friends with him?"
Huo Xiaoxiao was not interested in little kids, so she looked up at her father.
Mr. Yi touched Huo Xiaoxiao's head, "I heard that your daughter is smart, and I am finally willing to see her today."
"Xiaoxiao is still young and ignorant, so I'm afraid of disturbing your old man."
"It's normal for children to be noisy, and it sounds lively to me." After Mr. Yi finished speaking, he took out a red envelope and stuffed it into Huo Xiaoxiao's hand, "There are a lot of children here today, let's go and play."
Huo Suicheng did not shirk, "Then you greet the guests first, and I will take her there first."
"go Go."
Huo Suicheng left with Huo Xiaoxiao in his arms, and was spotted by Yi Yang who was greeting guests on the way, "Huo Er."
Huo Xiaoxiao followed her reputation, and she still had some impressions of Uncle Yi who she had seen in the Yonghe Club before, and beside this Uncle Yi was a bright woman in a white dress and long skirt who was holding his arm intimately. Huo Xiaoxiao had also appeared on TV before. seen her.
He is a famous star named Xu Xinyi.
"Xiao Xiao, call someone."
Huo Xiaoxiao yelled obediently: "Hello, uncle and aunt."
Xu Xinyi only has one son, and he always wanted to have another daughter, but Yi Yang used her body as an excuse to delay day after day.
Now I see a little girl who looks like a jade carving, and I like it very much.
"Whose baby is so cute? What's your name?"
"Huo Xiaoxiao."
"Little?" Xu Xinyi couldn't hold back and gently pinched the baby fat on Huo Xiaoxiao's face, "Can I hug you, auntie?"
Huo Xiaoxiao nodded helplessly.
She knew that when she came to this kind of occasion, she would inevitably be asked, pinched, and hugged.
"Mr. Huo, I heard from Yi Yang that your daughter is smart and she started to communicate with people when she was one year old. I have been curious for a long time but I finally saw her today. I heard that you are looking for a teacher for her? Did you find it?"
Huo Suicheng nodded, "I found it."
"It's good if you find it. In this way, you talk about yours, and a group of children over there are playing there. I will take Xiaoxiao away and return it to you when I go back." After finishing speaking, she said to Huo Xiaoxiao: "Xiaoxiao, auntie Take you to play with other children, okay?"
Huo Xiaoxiao didn't really want to go.
But he also knew that under Huo Suicheng's nose, he could only follow in a proper manner, so he nodded.
Huo Suicheng nodded to her, "It's troublesome."
"Small things."
There were people coming and going at the banquet, and children running and jumping, not knowing what would happen.
Xu Xinyi hugged Huo Xiaoxiao and left, and walked to Huo Xiaoxiao: "Xiaoxiao, Auntie has a son named Yi Qian. Auntie will introduce you to him later, can you make friends?"
"it is good."
"So cute."
There is a room in the corridor on the right side of the hall on the first floor. When the door is opened, the noise of the children is even harsher than the voices of the adults in the hall. Toys of all sizes are placed on the floor, and two servants take care of the room. Four or five children, overwhelmed.
"lady."
Xu Xinyi nodded slightly, put Huo Xiaoxiao on the sofa and sat down, and said to all the children present: "Children, come here. Auntie will introduce a new friend to you."
Seeing four or five children who were three or four years old, and the oldest was no more than five years old, rushing towards him, Huo Xiaoxiao had a trace of despair in his eyes, and he had no time to pay attention to what Xu Xinyi was saying to these real children.
She regrets it now, very much.
Why would you risk being nagged for several days and beg for nothing to follow Huo Suicheng here.
Isn't it good to play alone at home
With so many children, her brain is going to be blown up.
"Okay, you have to help Auntie take care of Xiaoxiao, do you understand?"
"understood-"
"So cute!"
Xu Xinyi glanced at the little boy who was sitting in the corner of the sofa concentrating on playing Rubik's Cube, and frowned, "Yi Qian, come here!"
"Oh." The little man in the corner responded, but he still sat in the corner without moving, only looking over.
"Oh what? Come here, this is my younger sister, her name is Huo Xiaoxiao, you are my elder brother, take good care of her, understand?"
Yi Qian drooped his eyelids, as if he couldn't get any more energy, he lazily replied: "Got it."
Seeing his lazy attitude, Xu Xinyi really wanted to let Yi Qian know why his little butt is so red.
Giving birth to a son is a worry-free thing. I look like a little adult all day long, and I don't have any energy for a child.
It's better to be a girl.
Thinking about it, his face was full of smiles again, and he said to Huo Xiaoxiao: "Xiaoxiao, he is the son of my aunt, named Yi Qian, you just play here, you can tell Yi Qian what you want, or you can talk to these sisters Said, if someone bullies you, you can tell your aunt, okay?"
Huo Xiaoxiao nodded.
"Then auntie went out first, it's fun." She squeezed Huo Xiaoxiao's baby fat again, and then left the room.
As soon as Xu Xinyi left the room, Yi Qian turned around and devoted himself to tinkering with his Rubik's Cube, using his expression and actions to show that he was not the same kind of person as the children in this room.
Huo Xiaoxiao almost suffocated watching the building blocks and wooden horses played by these children, as well as the cartoons on TV.
She has never played such a childish game at home.
Spotting another Rubik's Cube in front of Yi Qian, Huo Xiaoxiao jumped off the sofa and walked over.
Yi Qian looked up at her.
"Can I play this?"
"casual."
Huo Xiaoxiao didn't take the Rubik's Cube, but looked at Yi Qian with interest.
Children are generally very cute. Yi Qian, who has inherited all the advantages of Yi Yang and Xu Xinyi, cannot be described as cute. His eyes, nose, mouth, and even those long and curled eyelashes can be described as exquisite.
Huo Xiaoxiao has basically never been in contact with children, and this is the first time he has seen a child as delicate as Yi Qian.
How can I say that there is still an eighteen-year-old little princess living in her heart, so she couldn't help pinching her hands.
Yi Qian stopped the Rubik's Cube in his hand and looked up at her coldly.
The child tugged very hard, opened his mouth and said, "Let go."
Huo Xiaoxiao not only didn't let go, but also touched it with the other hand.
The little kid is good at everything, but he has a bad personality.
"I do not!"
Without saying a word, Yi Qian reached out and knocked off Huo Xiaoxiao's 'evil' hand on his face, bowed his head and continued to play Rubik's Cube in isolation.
"..." The little kid has a big temper.
Huo Xiaoxiao looked at the Rubik's Cube in his hand.
After all, I was still young, so I couldn't put it all together.
After thinking about it, she picked up another Rubik's Cube and skillfully turned the Rubik's Cube with her fingertips.
Perhaps it was because she turned faster and faster, which attracted Yi Qian's attention. When it was about to be completed, Yi Qian's eyes were firmly glued to her Rubik's Cube.
Ka Ka Ka—
It didn't take long for Huo Xiaoxiao to piece together a complete Rubik's Cube.
"you… "
Huo Xiaoxiao looked at the shocked look of the little kid and pouted.
Anyway, she has played for a while, the Rubik's Cube has rules, and it is easy to play.
The full-level player was reborn in Novice Village, and she finally got the chance to show off.
The past two years have suffocated her.
"Want to learn?"
Yi Qian looked hesitant.
"As long as you let me touch it, I will teach you." Huo Xiaoxiao shamelessly swung the Rubik's Cube that he had turned in front of Yi Qian.
Yi Qian blinked, and after hesitating again and again, he finally revealed the naivety and shyness that fit his identity.
He was calm and composed, with a babyish tone in his soft childish voice, "Okay, but...you can only touch for a minute."
"Yes!" Huo Xiaoxiao put his hands on his soft cheeks.
Soft to the touch, so fun.
The child's face gradually turned red from being touched, and he counted in his heart until he called to stop when he counted to sixty.
"It's here! You can't touch it!"
Huo Xiaoxiao bullied the child, "Let me touch it for another minute, or I won't teach you."
Yi Qian was out of breath, "You..."
Huo Xiaoxiao taught him seriously, "Boys must learn to protect themselves outside, and they should not trust others too much, do you know?"
