Quick Wear: Reversing Life
Chapter 92: A Single Mother Who Saved Her Autistic Son (11)
Fang Ya was called by Liu Meihua to help in the kitchen.
Lin Xun and Liu Meihua's husbands are not talkative people. Although Li Qiuping is enthusiastic, he does not communicate too much with Wenxiu to avoid suspicion. Coupled with what happened just now, the atmosphere in the whole living room became a little cold.
Wenxiu has never liked to pay too much attention to people outside of her mission. The air conditioner was turned on and it was stuffy. She held Wen Jin in her arms and walked to the balcony.
Wen Jin had been staring at the balcony since the beginning. The flowers and birds raised by Liu Meihua's husband were placed on the balcony, chirping non-stop.
It was the first time that Wen Jin observed the jumping birds up close, and he was so fascinated by them.
There was a thrush in the cage. When it saw someone coming, it chirped even more happily. Its voice was so loud and melodious that it immediately attracted Lin Ziqi, who was sitting in the living room playing with toys.
"Wow, it's a bird!" The little girl said in a clear voice and reached out to touch it, but the bird cage was hanging high up and she couldn't reach it even if she jumped.
"Daddy, come and see the bird!"
Li Gaoxuan had long lost interest in the birds raised by his grandfather, but when he saw everyone gathered on the balcony, he threw away his new toys and ran to join in the fun.
Lin Ziqi asked: "What kind of bird is this?"
"This is a thrush," Wenxiu explained to the little girl, also explaining it to her son. "Do you see the white circle around its eyes? Doesn't it look like it has eyebrows painted on?"
Lin Ziqi said: "But it doesn't look good. My classmate has a yellow bird with red feathers!"
"Really? That might be a cockatiel. It's really beautiful." Wenxiu smiled. "But the song of the thrush is beautiful."
Although Lin Ziqi is not very old, girls from single-parent families always mature earlier.
The elders in the family would always ask her if she wanted a new mother when her father was not around.
She could also subtly sense that Uncle Qiuping wanted to introduce the aunt in front of him to her father.
Lin Ziqi suddenly asked Wenxiu: "Why doesn't my brother speak?"
Wenxiu smiled slightly: "He doesn't like to talk."
The little girl asked again: "Can I just stop talking if I don't like to talk?"
"of course can."
"But I don't like carrots. Dad always makes me eat carrots!"
Wenxiu said, "I don't like carrots either. I think they have a weird taste. Brother Wenjin is just like us and doesn't like carrots either."
Lin Ziqi seemed to have found his organization. He turned to Lin Xun and said, "Dad, you see, you can grow tall even without eating carrots."
Lin Xun was a little surprised. He looked at Wen Xiu, who was holding Wen Jin in her arms. Both mother and child had fair skin and clear almond-shaped eyes. Wen Jin looked like a well-fed child. His face still had a bit of baby fat, and his pupils were dark and bright.
Suddenly, Li Gaoxuan said loudly beside him: "It's not that he doesn't like to talk, it's that he can't talk!"
The sound was so loud that everyone heard it and felt a little awkward for a moment.
Fang Ya, who was arranging dishes in the restaurant, also heard it. She wanted to see what Wen Xiu had to say.
Wenxiu was not angry, she kept smiling: "How do you know he can't speak?"
Li Gaoxuan said, "I've never heard Wen Jin speak."
Wenxiu asked: "Do you think there are aliens in this world?"
I don't know why she suddenly asked this, but Li Gaoxuan still answered: "Of course!"
A boy of his age is very curious about this kind of thing, and he talked a lot about the existence of aliens.
Wenxiu interrupted him and said with a smile: "How do you know if you haven't seen it?"
Li Gaoxuan was anxious: "Yes, there is! Dad told me!"
The adults had already understood Wenxiu's implied meaning, and Li Qiuping felt both amused and embarrassed in the living room.
Liu Meihua's husband got up from the sofa, walked to the balcony, and asked Wen Jin with a smile: "Which one do you like, Xiaojin? Grandpa will give it to you."
Then he said to Lin Ziqi: "Your name is Ziqi, right? Which one do you like? Grandpa will give you one too."
Lin Ziqi looked back at Lin Xun, then rejected his grandfather's kindness, being sensible and polite.
Wen Xiucai didn't care about being polite. Li Gaoxuan had offended Wen Jin, so his grandfather should compensate him with a bird. She weighed Wen Jin in her arms and asked, "Which one do you want?"
In the end, Liu Meihua's husband gave the bird that Wen Jin had been looking at, along with its cage, to Wen Jin as an apology for Li Gaoxuan's ignorance.
Lin Ziqi actually wanted a bird too, but Lin Xun had taught her not to ask for other people's things casually.
Wenxiu saw what the little girl was thinking. She put Wen Jin down from her arms, took the bird cage down and put it on the ground, allowing the two children to see the bird up close together.
"Look at it, but don't touch it. It's very timid."
Wenxiu squatted and watched the birds with the two children, while Lin Xun and Li Qiuping stood in the living room watching them.
Li Qiuping turned his head slightly and glanced at Lin Xun with a subtle smile.
Lin Xun looked normal. He put his right hand in his pocket and his eyes fell on the pink figure on the balcony. Her profile was soft and white, as warm as water.
Most importantly, Lin Ziqi seemed to get along well with her. Although the girl had a lively personality, she was still very shy in front of strangers. Now seeing the three of them getting along so harmoniously was what touched Lin Xun.
Lin Xun turned his gaze to Wen Jin again. This child was different from what he had imagined. He was clean and quiet. He sat there without saying a word. No one could tell that he was an autistic child.
And anyone with a discerning eye can see that Wenxiu takes good care of Wen Jin, who is fair and tender.
The man lowered his eyelids as his right hand, which was in his pocket, touched the wedding ring he had taken off before coming.
...
After dinner, the two families said goodbye.
As soon as Wenxiu left, Fang Ya started arguing with Li Qiuping.
Fang Ya secretly observed at the dinner table. She found that Wen Jin was basically not picky about food. He would eat whatever Wen Xiu picked for him. On the other hand, Li Gaoxuan only ate meat. He ate half of the plate of cola chicken wings that Wen Xiu brought.
Fang Ya disliked Wenxiu, and she also disliked the plate of cola chicken wings that Wenxiu made. High-sugar food is not nutritious at all, but her silly son kept showing off.
Comparing yourself with others is really frustrating. Fang Ya can only comfort herself that her son is better than the autistic child across the street.
As soon as Wenxiu left, Fang Ya took advantage of the lunch break to ask Li Qiuping to take her son back to the city.
Li Qiuping was troubled: "Didn't we agree to wait until Xuanxuan started elementary school before taking her over?"
Fang Ya actually thought so too, but when she saw Wen Jin today, she suddenly felt suffocated. She couldn't believe that the child she raised with her own hands was not as good as the child raised by a woman with only a junior high school diploma.
However, Li Gaoxuan will soon be going to elementary school, and Fang Ya and Li Qiuping had originally planned to buy a school district house in the city and settle down by the end of this year.
...
On the other side, while driving, Lin Xun tactfully asked Lin Ziqi whether he liked Aunt Wenxiu and Brother Wenjin.
"Brother Wenjin is good-looking." Lin Ziqi said, "Auntie Wenxiu is also good-looking. I think Auntie Wenxiu is prettier than Dudu's mother."
Dudu is Lin Ziqi's classmate in kindergarten. He always says in class that his mother looks like a big star. Dudu's mother came to the parent-teacher meeting for Dudu and was recognized by all the children in the class as the "most beautiful mother".
Lin Xun attended all of Lin Ziqi's parent-teacher meetings and was one of the few male parents in the class who attended.
Sometimes classmates would ask Lin Ziqi why she had never seen her mother, and Lin Ziqi always didn’t know what to say.
Lin Ziqi asked: "Dad, will she be my new mother in the future?"
Lin Xun actually didn't want to mention this kind of thing. It was cruel and difficult for the child to accept. He tried his best to remain calm and leave the decision to Lin Ziqi.
"Well, if you like it, let Aunt Wenxiu be your new mother. If you don't like it, don't be her."
Lin Ziqi lowered her head and looked at the rabbit doll in her hand. This was the gift Wen Xiu had just given her. Li Gaoxuan's was a frog doll.
The little girl hesitated for a long time before finally looking up and asking Lin Xun, "Will I still be Daddy's favorite person in the future?"
Lin Xun was shocked by his daughter's sensitivity. He pulled over to the side of the road, turned around and said to Lin Ziqi seriously, "Of course. You are the most precious person to your mother and me. We found a new mother for you because she can protect you when your father is not around. If you don't like her, then we don't want a new mother."
