A Noble Marriage - Chapter 89
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.
Anna wore a little apron and a hat to seliosa, but some of the boy’s brown and golden curly hair would show mischievously. He didn’t care. He wore a big hat and his eyes were excited.
“How much are we going to do? Mom. ” Xie liaosha inquired. His clean fingers began to touch the prepared beans.
“Two for each one.” Anna said.
Xie liaosha asked again, “can I make other shapes?”
“Like Bambi last year?” Anna joked.
Xie liaosha some blush: “Oh, practice tells us, that is a bit difficult, this year I want to try something else.”
“What?”
“Secret.” Xie liaosha said with a wink.
When they put the rice dumplings into the steamer, Anna still didn’t see what Xie liaosha had made.
“Will it be long?” Xie liaosha asked, his eyes fell on the cage drawer.
“Like last year.” Anna took the boy to wash her hands.
“Do I want to look better?” Xie liaosha looked back and asked reluctantly. It seemed that he was very worried about whether there would be any accident in his works.
“During this time, I think you can recite a lesson, and your father will be happy.” Anna suggested.
Xie liaosha thought for a moment and then nodded. His mother’s advice was right. His father would like the zongzi he made, but he also liked that he could recite the text.
Twenty minutes later, Xie liaosha recited the text. He went to the bedroom again. It happened that his father also got up.
Xie liaosha smiles at his father.
“I memorized yesterday’s part.” He said happily, like a show off, with his head raised high, like a little dog eager to be praised.
Karenin had just put on his uniform meticulously. Some places were ironed too straight, and he always had a cold look. It was hard to get close to him. But the son seems to be completely unaware of this, like the sun on May morning, fearlessly approaching everything in the world.
Karenin could not, like Anna’s elder brother count obronski, hold his child up when he was happy, and he almost never said those explicit intimate words.
As a father, facing his son’s dog’s eyes, what he did most was to temporarily disrupt his morning plan and give the little boy a little time to recite a text.
Karenin sat in his chair, picked up the book and opened it. Although he had recited the book like a stream, he still held the book in both hands for the sake of respect and for the sake of following his cautious character. Then he nodded slightly, indicating that his son could start reciting.
Xie liaosha cleared his throat. He stood upright, his legs in white socks tightened up beautifully, his hands were back, and he looked lovely and full of style.
In this morning light, the father and son in the light are not very close, but from the occasional eye contact, few people suspect that they are father and son. Knock on those two pairs of big eyes, a father will always have some faint lines at the end of his eyes after he leaves the child’s tender, but the color of his pupils will not change. A son is like a father decades ago, but he looks more tender and soft, like a newborn bird. His round pupils are full of curiosity about the world.
The relationship between father and son, in addition to blood and appearance, long-term relationship, even the spleen and a little bit of small action is also so similar.
Karenin nodded slightly, and the son grinned, as if he could not help rushing up to hold his father, but Xie liaosha still resisted. After all, he was five years old, but no matter how restrained he was, his proud and happy eyes could not be hidden.
“My mother and I made rice dumplings together, when you were asleep.” Xie liaosha couldn’t help saying, and then without waiting for the other party to answer, he went to take his father’s big hand.
“I made something special. You must try it, Dad.” Xie liaosha looked at his father as he walked along. He looked very charming.
When Karenin sat at the table and his wife brought the rice dumplings, his son lifted the lid.”It’s a little hot.” Karenin stopped Xie liaosha, who looked at him eagerly, while his wife sat down and looked at him with a smile in his eyes.
Both of them seemed to place great hopes on him, which made Karenin feel that he had a great responsibility.
Under their expectant eyes, he opened the zongzi and made a guess.
“Tie?”
Karenin thought for a while and then frowned. He didn’t quite understand why Xie liaosha made such a shape.
When Karenin looked up, he saw his son in a daze.
“Isn’t it?”
Xie liaosha wrinkled his nose: “Oh, maybe we can call them tie fish?”
It was Karenin’s turn to stay for a while. He frowned again and gazed at the shape of Zongzi on the plate. Finally, he reluctantly confirmed that Xie liaosha’s original intention might be to make three fish. The moral is easy to understand.
“Maybe I don’t have much talent for painting.” He looked very sad, but he didn’t sigh.
“At least they taste great. Maybe you can be a great chef.” Anna picked the tail of the fish, took a bite and said.
Xie liaosha thought for a moment and then laughed again.
“That’s good, too.”
He is always so optimistic, this beautiful smile makes the Father also relaxed.
