Extra 16
"Do me a favor, I can't come over for tonight's shift." Lian Feng took off his uniform and said to Yuan Jinfei next to him, "Call me if you need anything."
"Wait a minute." Yuan Jinfei stopped Lian Feng who was running out, "There's something wrong with you, kid. What's going on during this time? Why do you want to run home every day."
The two have been partners since entering this police station. For a year, Lian Feng has been a model policeman in the station.
They are grassroots police officers who take care of trivial matters every day. Yuan Jinfei was a top student at the police academy, but after graduation he was assigned to this corner, which made him very angry.
But the legendary Lian Feng from the police academy arrived here. He went around doing trivial things every day and did them meticulously without any dissatisfaction. Yuan Jinfei really admired him.
- It turns out that Jin Fei and Lian Feng were alumni of the same class, but Nai He had always been under the pressure of Lian Feng. When he learned that Lian Feng was also assigned here, his dissatisfaction disappeared instantly.
After a year of working as partners, the two gradually became good brothers.
In Yuan Jinfei's case, Lian Feng is a frighteningly self-disciplined person. He has his own beliefs and persistence. It was this belief and persistence that made him choose to join the police.
Even if he is assigned to work as a police officer at the grassroots level, he still loves it. In his words: I am a police officer and have responsibilities on my shoulders that cannot be discarded.
Three hundred and sixty-five days a year, except for holidays, Lian Feng is always the first to arrive at the institute and the last to leave.
But starting from last month, when it was time to get off work, Lian Feng was the first to leave after get off work without anything particularly important. He was also the same in the morning, often stepping over.
Yuan Jinfei thought he wanted to take a break at first, but this situation lasted for a month, and he finally couldn't bear it anymore.
After all, they are brothers. If anything happens, the one who needs to be helped will naturally have to be helped.
"Did something happen at home?" Yuan Jinfei asked.
Then he discovered that his partner's face suddenly became...softer
When it comes to Lian Feng's looks, he is one of the best in the entire police academy. Yuan Jinfei once witnessed his junior sister handing him a love letter when he was on campus.
But this guy, Kong has a handsome face, a cold face all day long, and exudes an aura of keeping strangers away from him. He is frightened at first glance, and after the junior sisters hit the wall one after another, they naturally fade away.
For this reason, when the two first became partners, they had a lot of conflicts - of course, it was Yuan Jinfei's fault, and Lian Feng ignored him the whole time.
After getting acquainted with him, Yuan Jinfei understood that Lian Feng was not arrogant. He was born with such a dog-like temper, which attracted girls. In the girl's words, he was handsome and cool.
Now that this guy had this expression on his face, Yuan Jinfei almost made Yuan Jinfei wonder if a string in his brain was broken.
"It's okay." Knowing that Yuan Jin didn't mean well, Lian Feng patted his shoulder and said, "I'm leaving first."
Yuan Jinfei could only watch Lian Feng leave in a hurry, as if something at home was tempting him to go back.
Too strange.
Yuan Jinfei scratched his head and couldn't figure out why.
*
Lian Feng unlocked the bicycle and checked the time. There was a bit of anxiety in his eyes: I wonder if the little guy is crying.
A strange thing happened last year. He got a daughter, and the daughter was not just his.
Although it is very incredible, it turns out that the daughter has genes from four people.
Therefore, his daughter, including him, has a total of four fathers.
The daughter floated over from the river, and the four of them thought of a name together, and finally named her "Jiang Mian" with "Jiangmian" as a homophone.
The four of them agreed to raise their daughter together for three months, and no one else could interfere during their respective raising periods.
The reason for making such an agreement is to keep the baby close to each of them, unless they are unwilling to raise them and voluntarily give up custody rights.
No one wanted to give up, and the deal was sealed.
Last time it was Lian Feng's turn, his daughter was still a few months old baby. He had no experience and was afraid of hurting the baby. So I used all my salary, plus previous savings, to hire a nanny to take care of me for three months.
When it was his turn again, his daughter was already over a year old and could walk and talk. When Han Xu sent it over, she looked at him curiously, not afraid at all.
When he hugged her, she was obedient, with her big round eyes open, as if she was looking at him, and as if she was confirming that this was also her father.
"Mianmian, do you know who I am?" He interrupted the silence first, nervously observing the little guy's reaction.
Then he felt the soft little arms smelling like milk wrap around his neck, and heard his daughter's soft and waxy voice with a vague voice: "Baba...baba~"
At that moment, Lian Feng was stunned.
…
Lian Feng rode his bicycle, passed by a fruit vendor, bought some fresh fruits, and then went to the market to buy some vegetables before returning to the community where he lived.
He lived in an old community with no elevator. On the second floor, he happened to meet an old man coming down the corridor.
"Xiao Lian is back. Mianmian is very well-behaved today." The old man smiled with a smile on his face, "I have never seen such a well-behaved child."
The old man's surname is Zhang. She is a widowed grandmother. Her children are away. After her husband passed away, she lives here alone. By coincidence, I discovered that Lian Feng had a little Tuanzi who took the initiative to help take care of little Jiang Mian while Lian Feng was at work.
The old man likes little Jiang Mian very much. She doesn't want anything Lian Feng gives her, and will get angry if she insists.
She said: "The old woman won't live long. It's rare that she likes a little girl so much. If you really thank me and teach Mianmian to call me grandma, I will be satisfied."
…
"Mianmian just fell asleep, and I was thinking of buying some watermelon so that she can eat it when she wakes up." Grandma Zhang looked at the bag in Lian Feng's hand, "You've already bought it, it's just in time."
Lian Feng helped Grandma Zhang up to the second floor, opened the door and went to the bedroom.
Little Jiang Mian was lying on his stomach in a ball, and he didn't know how he slept. His head was buried under the pillow, and he was covered with a small blanket. There was a basin of ice cubes beside the bed.
The weather is hot and children cannot use fans, so they put a basin of ice cubes to physically cool down.
Grandma Zhang smiled so hard that her eyes were gone, and she said lovingly: "I was lying down to sleep when I went out, and in the next moment I was lying on my stomach. Look, does it look like a little frog?"
Lian Feng walked over and uncovered the pillow, revealing the little guy's pink face. He had a thumb in his mouth, sleeping soundly.
He lowered his head and kissed his daughter's tender little face gently, and then said to Grandma Zhang, "Sit down and rest while I cook."
"No." Grandma Zhang shook her head, "I'll go back to my home to do it, don't worry about me."
"Don't give me the fruit, I have some, and I'll keep them all for Mianmian."
After the strong refusal, the old man left quickly. Not long after, he brought a pot of layered cakes that had just been baked by himself.
"Mianmian likes to eat, but you have to control the amount and be careful not to get upset." Grandma Zhang came and went in a hurry.
The old man thought very clearly that the little girl's mother was nowhere to be seen. Lian Feng was both a father and a mother and had to work, so he didn't spend much time with little Jiang Mian every day.
Although she is the "grandma", she is not a relative after all. The days when Lian Feng comes back from get off work are perfect for cultivating the relationship between father and daughter, so how can she disturb him.
Lian Feng's cooking skills were only average. He used to be alone and then just eat something to fill his stomach.
Now that he has a daughter, he naturally needs to improve his cooking skills. During this period, his cooking skills have improved at a rapid pace.
He cooked some vegetable and lean meat porridge, and made some complementary food. Finally, he made a simple dish for himself and served it together.
Returning to the bedroom, Xiao Jiang Mian was still sleeping, but she had already uncovered the pillow, but she actually put her little head under the pillow again, and one of her little legs like lotus roots was pulled out of the blanket, almost hooking on top of her head. Her posture was clear strange,
Sleeping posture needs to be corrected.
With this thought in his mind, he quickly walked over, freed little Jiang Mian from under the pillow, held her in his arms, and scraped her face: "Mianmian, get up."
Did not move, continued to smell delicious.
Looking at the watch on his wrist, it was almost eight o'clock. Lian Feng couldn't help but poke his daughter's tender face: "If you don't get up, you won't be able to sleep at night."
According to his character, he should forcefully wake his daughter up at this moment, but seeing little Jiang Mian sleeping soundly, he couldn't bear it.
Simply carry your daughter out of the bedroom, support her with one hand, and stir the porridge in the bowl with the other to cool it down faster.
"Daddy." The little dumpling in her arms finally woke up, hugged her father's neck, and blinked her sleepy eyes. She was speaking more and more clearly now, comparable to some three-year-old children, "It smells so good."
She puffed out her rosy mouth, kissed Lian Feng on the face, then covered her mouth and frowned: "Prick."
Pricked by the beard on my father's face.
Lian Feng acted mischievously and deliberately pricked her with his beard. She quickly covered her face with her little hands, covering this part but not that part. Finally she said in a panic: "Daddy, bad!"
Lian Feng stopped teasing her and put her on a children's chair. She immediately saw the fragrant layer cake and said firmly: "My grandma made it."
In her opinion, dada cannot make such fragrant cakes.
Lian Feng: "..."
At least save some face.
After the father and daughter finished eating, Lian Feng packed up the dishes and went to the kitchen, specifically confiscating Xiao Jiang Mian's.
In order to help her father, little Jiang Mian ran to the kitchen holding her own small bowl, small chopsticks and small spoon. She was not even taller than Lian Feng's thighs. She tried to stand on tiptoes and said happily: "Daddy, wash it."
Lian Feng took it and smiled involuntarily, encouraging: "Mianmian is great."
The little girl was very happy. In order to express herself, she returned to the living room to get a broom and prepared to sweep the floor.
Although she is still young, she still wants to help daddy do what she can~
Lian Feng specially bought a small broom for little Jiang Mian. When Lian Feng finished washing the dishes and came out, he saw the little girl holding his own small broom and humming to sweep the floor. However, despite his efforts, even one of his small slippers was removed. I didn’t even know I had dropped it, so I worked hard with my bare feet.
"Papa, do you think I can sweep it clean?" Little Jiang Mian was very happy to see his father and ran towards Lian Feng dragging the broom.
One of her feet was not wearing a shoe, and she was stumbling while running. Then her foot slipped. Lian Feng's expression changed and he rushed over quickly. In the end, he was a step too slow and Jiang Mian fell to the ground.
There was no loud cry as expected, so Lian Feng quickly picked up little Jiang Mian. The latter smiled at him and said bravely: "Daddy, it doesn't hurt."
Lian Feng's heart dropped from mid-air. He looked at the swollen bump on the little girl's forehead. He pursed his lips and quickly used local methods to reduce the swelling on Jiang Mian - he went to the kitchen to dig out a small amount of lard and put it on the bump. superior.
The little girl never cried out in pain during the whole process, but her big eyes were filled with tears.
"Cry if it hurts." Lian Feng felt extremely distressed, and the movements in his hands became gentler.
As soon as the words fell, Xiao Jiang Mian immediately burst into tears. While crying, he said, "I fell by myself. You have to be brave not to cry."
"You don't have to be brave in front of daddy." Lian Feng kissed his daughter's little face lovingly and patiently taught him, "You can't run so fast next time. Even if you see daddy, you have to take your time, okay?"
Xiao Jiang Mian nodded heavily: "I remember."
After the small episode, Lian Feng took Xiao Jiang Mian for a walk downstairs.
Grandma Zhang was old and did not dare to take little Jiang Mian out for fear of getting into trouble, so little Jiang Mian stayed at home almost the whole day and was taken care of by Grandma Zhang.
After Lian Feng got off work, he naturally wanted to take Xiao Jiang Mian out for a walk.
Little Jiang Mian likes her father to take her out for a walk at night. Although she is sensible, it is the nature of a child to play outside.
She stood at the door, opened the shoe cabinet, and took out the shoes that Lian Feng wanted to wear, working as hard as a little bee.
Lian Feng enjoys his daughter's "filial piety" very much.
Every time when she went downstairs, little Jiang Mian wouldn't let Lian Feng hold her. She had short legs and it was difficult for her to go down the stairs. But she wasn't stupid either. She knew how to hold on to the handrail and move down step by step.
The little girl felt a sense of accomplishment and played this game endlessly every day. Lian Feng was watching from the side to prevent accidents.
Most of the residents in this community would take a walk downstairs. The father and daughter would often meet residents walking up the stairs, and they would smile and say something when they saw this scene.
"Come on, little girl."
"Look at these short legs, how strong they are."
"Come on, come on, call grandpa, grandpa will give you candy."
At this time, little Jiang Mian would turn to Lian Feng, and only after getting Lian Feng's permission would he take the candy from the old man's hand, and then say very sweetly: "Thank you, grandpa."
The happy old man couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear.
Usually Lian Feng would take little Jiang Mian for a walk downstairs, and then walk outside the community.
There are many roadside stalls outside the community, some of which have long queues. Little Jiang Mian would never make a fuss about eating these.
If she sees a child trying to eat from one of these roadside stalls and her parents are sitting on the ground crying if they don't want to buy it, she will run over, point to her belly and say, "Brother, if you eat these, you will get worms in your stomach."
Successfully frightened the children into not daring to move.
Enthusiastic and perfect successor Lien Feng.
After finishing the shopping, it was almost 9:30, Lian Feng took little Jiang Mian home and started giving her a bath.
In order to give little Jiang Mian a bath, Lian Feng bought a solid wooden basin. While he was draining the water, little Jiang Mian returned to the bedroom to find her own skirt. When she returned to the bathroom, the basin was already full of foam.
It was her favorite taste, like milk, and the little Jiang Mian sitting inside was like a peeled egg.
Many children hate bathing, and even more hate washing their hair, but little Jiang Mian likes it very much, because it can make her hair smell good.
After taking a bath, Lian Feng would put Xiao Jiang Mian on the bed and let her play on the bed while he quickly took care of himself.
Little Jiang Mian started counting, which was taught by Han Xu. Usually Lian Feng would also intentionally guide the teaching. Although she was not yet two years old, she had already shown extraordinary intelligence and could easily count to one hundred.
"...Sixty-one, sixty-two..." When the count reached seventy, Lian Feng came out after finishing cleaning up, and Xiao Jiang Mian stood up from the bed, "Daddy, it's faster than yesterday..."
She lowered her head and looked at her chubby fingers, and finally said three: "Three faster. Yesterday it was seventy-three."
Lian Feng was a little surprised. He didn't expect his daughter to be able to do subtraction. He quickly praised the little guy.
Little Jiang Mian was very happy to receive the praise. He pushed out the copybook for reading and said domineeringly: "Daddy, learn to read."
The idea is to ask Lian Feng to teach her how to read, and when she learns how to read, she can also read little books to Daddy.
—Before little Jiang Mian goes to sleep every night, Lian Feng will read little books to her.
Lian Feng held his daughter half-leaning on the bed, taught her how to read pictures and read words, and freed up one hand to fan her.
After recognizing it, little Jiang Mian yawned and slowly lowered his eyelids. Thinking that he was still learning to read, he quickly opened them again.
After a while, he still couldn't hold on. He rubbed his eyes with his hands and said sleepily: "Dad, sleepy."
"Go to sleep, daddy is here." He kissed his daughter's soft little face. It was so soft, like marshmallows, that he couldn't help but want to take a bite.
So the little girl found a comfortable position on Lian Feng's body and fell into a deep sleep within a few seconds.
Carefully placing her daughter on her side, she discovered that there was a very obvious red pimple on her fleshy left arm.
He had clearly repelled mosquitoes beforehand.
Lian Feng frowned and gently took the mosquito repellent and applied a little on the small bump.
Then he began to check the mosquitoes in the room until they were completely eliminated before lying down in bed again.
When little Jiang Mian slept, she would look for heat sources and automatically roll into his arms. Holding her was like holding a stove, but she was content with it.
Lian Feng has never been a gentle person. He has always been known in the police academy as capable, cold, and intimidating. After unexpectedly having little Jiang Mian, he gave her all his tenderness.
This sudden baby was a light that appeared in his life, warming him like a little sun.
This is his daughter.
*
A few days later, Lian Feng took off work and decided to take advantage of this break to take Xiao Jiang Mian to the amusement park - he had not taken her out to have fun yet.
Xiao Jiang Mian was happy when she heard that she was going to the amusement park. She got up early. Lian Feng was not awake yet when she got up.
The little girl obediently did not disturb Lian Feng. She was flipping through the book on the bed. Suddenly something occurred to her. She put the book down, turned over Lian Feng, and climbed out of bed with difficulty.
When he finally crawled to the ground, he sighed in a mature manner, not realizing that Baba on the bed was already awake.
Lian Feng turned over and quietly opened his eyes, wanting to see what his little baby was going to do, and then he saw the little girl trying hard to open the cabinet door.
Lian Feng re-made a shorter wardrobe, and put most of the clothes he and Xiao Jiang Mian would wear on the bottom layer. The purpose was to allow Xiao Jiang Mian to find clothes by herself and to develop her hands-on skills.
Xiao Jiang Mian opened the cabinet door and climbed into the cabinet. After a while, she dragged a skirt out. It was probably because the cabinet was too dark. When she came out, she saw that the skirt was not what she thought, so she dragged the skirt back.
After going back and forth several times, she pulled out a colorful little skirt that looked like a rainbow. She was finally satisfied. She happened to find Lian Feng awake, and the little girl ran over dragging the clothes: "Daddy, I'll wear this."
Lian Feng glanced at the colorful skirt and forgot where he bought it: "Are you sure you want to wear this one?"
"Yeah!" Xiao Jiang Mian nodded and said loudly, "I like it."
Lian Feng compromised and instructed the little girl who turned into a stylist: "Then go and find one for daddy."
So Xiao Jiang Mian got into the cabinet again. A few seconds later, her panicked voice came from the cabinet: "Daddy, help me."
Lian Feng was so frightened that he immediately jumped over and opened the cabinet door on the other side. He saw the little girl buried in clothes. The pile of clothes fell down and buried little Jiang Mian directly, with her head exposed outside.
Lian Feng turned his head sideways and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
He did not rescue his daughter for the time being, but quickly took the camera and pressed the shutter button on this scene.
Xiao Jiang Mian: "..."
She tilted her head and looked at Daddy in confusion, thinking about a question: Why didn't Daddy save her
Finally, Xiao Jiang Mian chose a pair of gray pants, a red top, and a green jacket for Lian Feng.
She was very thoughtful, what if it was windy, rainy and cold? What if Daddy caught a cold without wearing a coat.
And the red and green colors are so pretty, and they match the little skirt I am wearing.
Jiang Stylist Mian blinked his big eyes and looked at his dad expectantly.
Lian Feng: "..."
As a young man, even though he has become a father, he is still a little concerned about his image. Lian Feng would never go out wearing such a combination.
However, facing his daughter's cute big eyes, Lian Feng had no choice but to accept his fate and change into: parent-child clothes are not bad either.
When going out to play, you not only need to wear a beautiful little dress, but also take care of your hair. Everyone loves beauty, and Xiao Jiang Mian is no exception.
She took out her small box of hair accessories and filled her head with countless small hairpins.
"Daddy, do you look good?"
"Exceptionally beautiful."
One dared to say it, the other dared to believe it. When she and Lian Feng went out, little Jiang Mian wanted to raise her head to the sky. Someone complimented her on her cuteness and beauty, so she pulled her little skirt and said, "Daddy dressed it up for me."
Lian Feng immediately received accusing looks from several mothers: Fathers can't just dress up casually just because their daughters are cute and pretty.
When he saw Lian Feng's face clearly, he was silent again: Becoming a father at such a young age doesn't understand normal...
Lian Feng: "..."
*
Today happened to be the weekend, and there were many people on the bus. Lian Feng and Xiao Jiang Mian sat in the back seat by the window. An old man got on the bus midway, but no one gave up his seat.
When Xiao Jiang Mian saw it, she turned to Lian Feng and said, "Daddy, can we let that grandma sit down?"
The little girl's milky voice was heard by many people in the car. Before Lian Feng could answer, a young man in front of the old man looked up at Xiao Jiang Mian and took the initiative to stand up and give up his seat.
Little Jiang Mian was puzzled, she didn't quite understand this yet, Lian Feng touched her head: "Mianmian did a good job, dad is proud of you."
The bus stopped and went, and the people in the seats next to it changed several times, and finally a young girl sat on the bus.
"Is she your sister? She's so cute." The girl didn't expect to meet a handsome guy just by taking a bus, so she couldn't help but take the initiative to chat with him.
Lian Feng said calmly: "She is my daughter."
girl:"… "
She said in disbelief: "He is your daughter, are you married?"
"Hello, sister." Little Jiang Mian called out obediently, holding Lian Feng's finger and introducing him proudly, "This is daddy."
The girl was instantly attracted by the cuteness. She ignored her surprise and lowered her voice subconsciously: "What's your name? How old are you this year?"
Little Jiang Mian gestured with her two chubby fingers: "Mianmian is two years old."
The girl looked at Lian Feng again, mainly because this man was so handsome and young, she really didn't expect that his daughter would be so old. She felt regretful but didn't show it on her face, and said with a smile: "Are you going out to play with dad? Where is mom?"
"What is Mommy?" Xiao Jiang Mian was a little confused. She had only heard of "Papa" but not "Mama".
She raised her head and looked at Lian Feng. Daddy said, and asked him if she didn't understand.
Lian Feng frowned slightly. The four of them had agreed not to let their daughter touch topics about her mother. He pointed out the window: "Mianmian, what do you think that is
Xiao Jiang Mian's attention was immediately attracted, and he looked out the window eagerly.
Lian Feng said to the girl, "Sorry."
The latter was a little embarrassed and realized that maybe the little guy's mother had something to hide, and he asked questions that he shouldn't have asked.
Under such eyes, she looked a little embarrassed and hurried to the empty seat in front to sit down.
"Papa, there aren't any outside." Little Jiang Mian looked around and saw nothing, his face full of confusion.
Lian Feng suppressed his laughter and said without blinking, "Dad was wrong."
The little girl was very easy to fool, and without any suspicion, she straightened up and called to Lian Feng's eyes: "Protect your eyes."
They say that daughters are caring little cotton-padded jackets, and this is indeed true.
