After Being Scumbed - Chapter 27

In the blink of an eye, it was New Year’s Eve. Yin Bai wrapped big red envelopes for several employees around him, and asked Zhang Yu to arrange to send them home for the New Year.

Zhang Yu now lives in the local area, staying with Yin Bai in the villa until the twenty-ninth, and went home on the morning of New Year’s Eve. Without Zhang Yu, the villa was empty, and Yin Bai didn’t think of it a little. She intends to stay in bed until noon, and when it is almost done, she will visit again.

But before he woke up, Zuo Jingyou called in. Yin Bai slept in a daze, and his voice was not so clear when he connected the phone: “Hello?”

Zuo Jingyou on the other end of the phone was a little surprised and chuckled, “Have you not gotten up yet?”

It’s already o’clock in the morning, but Zuo Jingyou’s voice is like a nightingale humming with dew in the morning, very beautiful and moving.

Yin Bai turned over, still had no desire to get up, and mumbled vaguely: “No, your family shouldn’t have dinner at this point, right?”

Zuo Jingyou smiled: “How could it be, but it’s time for breakfast. By the way, you sent the ingredients from Zhendifang?”

Yin Bai gave a hum, and his voice was so soft that he said, “Well, I can’t really eat rice.” Yin Bai yawned, and said very sleepily, “I didn’t mean to order food, just the ingredients you sent me. Do whatever you want, or give it to others if you don’t want it.”

Zuo Jingyou sighed softly: “It’s a waste.” She paused, and then asked: “By the way, I just received a jade screen made of white snow and red plums. Wouldn’t it be yours too?”

Yin Bai buried his head in the bed and said in a vague voice: “Yes, I bought it a few years ago, and I think it fits your home decoration style. Just treat it as a gift to your mother…”

Zuo Jingyou really didn’t know how to evaluate, so she returned, as if it were not appropriate. She paused, and said helplessly: “I’m interested…” Someday she will look at the decorations suitable for Yin Bai and give her a gift.

“It’s nothing, you have invited me to have a New Year’s Eve dinner.”

Yin Bai really didn’t wake up, and his words were softer than a word. When Zuo Jingyou heard it, it felt like a kitten was licking her ears and meowing constantly, making people feel itchy inexplicably.

Zuo Jingyou switched and answered the phone, smiling and said, “Then I will ask you to have breakfast again. Do you have glutinous rice balls?”

Speaking of food, Yin Bai was in a daze, and subconsciously asked, “Is it delicious?”

Zuo Jingyou smiled softly: “It’s delicious, do you want sweet or salty?”

Sweet? Salty?

These two flavors passed through Yin Bai’s mind, making her chaotic consciousness sober for the most part. She grabbed the phone, poked her head out of the bed, and hurriedly asked: “Salty? Why are the glutinous rice **** still salty?” This is unscientific. What kind of dark food tastes?

Her excitement came clearly from the other end of the phone, and Zuo Jingyou even thought for a moment that she might have been awakened this time. Zuo Jingyou hugged her arm and explained to her in a gentle and gentle manner: “Yes, my mother and I both eat salty. The children only like sweet ones because of the taste here.”

“Long knowledge!” Yin Baiqing took a breath and asked curiously: “What kind of filling is the salty?”

Zuo Jing paused for a while and said to Yin Bai, “It’s just minced meat with some peppers, but it’s not very spicy.”

Yin Bai sighed with emotion: “You really can put chili peppers on anything!” As expected, Yuncheng girl! Little pepper!

Zuo Jingyou curled up the corners of her lips, lowered her eyes and asked her softly, “Then you want to eat glutinous rice balls? If you want to eat it, I will pack it in a thermos box and let the children deliver it to you.”

“Of course!” Yin Bai rolled over, lying on the bed, squinting his eyes and said: “Free takeaway, don’t eat white, don’t eat!”

She spoke loudly, and the smile on Zuo Jingyou’s face became thicker: “Then you want sweet or salty?”

“Sweet!” Yin Bai said loudly, paused, and then added in a low voice after a while, “Try another salty one.”

Zuo Jingyou said hello, and soon let the children knock on the door of Yin Bai’s house with half a box of glutinous rice balls.

Because it was the children who came, Yin Bai didn’t change his pajamas. After combing his hair, he went out to greet the friends, and took them to eat.

After breakfast, the two children urged Yin Bai to change clothes, and said that Zuo Jingyou was preparing to cook, and asked Yin Bai to come and play with them.

Yin Bai felt that he was idle at home, so he might as well change a place to play with the children. Yin Bai clapped his hands and happily agreed to the children’s request: “Then wait, I will go with you when I change my clothes.”

The two children said in unison: “Good!”

Yin Bai went to the cloakroom. Among the new spring models, he picked an off-white lace shirt, matched it with brown striped suit trousers, and finally matched the coat of the same color, stepped on Martin boots, and picked it up. My new crutch and my little friend went out.

Of course, she didn’t forget to bring the souvenirs she had prepared before going out, so she came to visit with a big bag.

Zuo Jingyou didn’t expect the children to call her up. When she saw Yin Bai coming to the door with a bunch of gifts, she was very surprised: “Didn’t you come here with gifts this morning? Why did you come here with so many things? ?”

This is too grand!

Yin Bai leaned on a cane, handing what was in his hand to Zuo Jingyou, and said: “I heard Zhang Yu said that you can’t go empty-handed when you visit during the New Year. I will bring gifts to your mother, your sister, and you. A small gift is no respect.”

After Yin Bai finished speaking, he pointed to the two children next to him: “As for my friends, they had come to my house yesterday to get the gifts back in advance, so don’t worry about them.”

Zuo Jingyou laughed and asked Yin Bai to enter the door: “You are really…too grand, just having a New Year’s Eve dinner.” Zuo Jingyou took the gift, took a pair of brand new indoor slippers, and handed it to Yin Bai : “I’m going to trouble you to change your shoes today.”

Yin Bai readily responded: “It should be.”

Yin Bai and the children changed indoor slippers in the hallway together, got up on crutches, smiled and looked to the left quietly: “Of course it must be a little grander, you invite me to celebrate the New Year together.”

Wenwen on the side changed her shoes and couldn’t wait to pull Yin Bai’s belt forward: “Hurry up, let’s do the puzzle today. I have played with Tongtong for a long time, but we haven’t finished it!”

Tongtong held Yin Bai’s hand as if he was supporting her while walking: “That’s my sister who is too stupid, I can’t distinguish it!”

Yin Bai was dragged by them and walked slowly forward on crutches. As he walked, he reluctantly said: “Good job, just play! But friends, can you guys stop dragging me? I’m about to be dragged down by you guys. !”

She is a little lame, she can’t walk fast!

When the two children heard her say this, they slowed down and said in a compromise: “Okay, okay, wait for you, wait for you!”

Zuo Jingyou took the things in his hand and walked slowly behind the three of them. She watched Yin Bai limping on crutches and trying to keep up with the children.

The distance from the porch to the sofa is not that far. Obviously he was a tall person with long legs, but Yin Bai took a lot of effort to walk over.

Zuo Jingyou’s gaze slipped, and his gaze fell on Yin Bai’s lap. Her left foot is intact, but her right leg seems to be tied with a heavy shot. With every step, the left foot goes first, and the right leg slowly follows. Although the steps are small, every step is firm.

If you hadn’t seen such a scene, it would be hard for Zuo Jingyou to believe that Yin Bai would be a disabled person. But seriously, even if you have a physical defect, it doesn’t mean anything.

Does the embarrassment caused by physical defects have to be said to be indecent? Will it reduce the dazzling degree of a person’s soul?

Not necessarily.

Zuo Jingyou thought so, and saw Yin Bai finally sitting on the sofa with a cane. She saw Yin Bai take a long breath, turned to look at the two children, smiled and said, “Okay, take out your puzzles, let’s play!”

“Good!”

The children cheered, took out the scattered puzzles, and played with Yin Bai.

Standing on the edge of the sofa, Zuo Jingyou curled his lips and smiled unconsciously as he watched the happy scene of these three people.

She thought to herself that if a person as good as Yin Bai only looked at her appearance, it would be too affectionate to pity her because of her flaws.

It’s better not to care too much about this kind of thing.

Thinking like this, Zuo Jingyou looked at the three people on the sofa and asked, “Do you want to drink something while playing games? I’ll bring it to you in a moment!”

Yin Bai raised his head and said with a smile, “Thank you, Teacher Zuo!”

The two little kids followed suit and said happily, “Thank you Teacher Zuo!”

Zuo Jingyou was silent for a moment, did not correct the names of the two children, turned around and put the gifts away, prepared fruit plates and snacks for them, and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Yin Bai worked hard with the children for a long time, and was very happy in the living room noisy.

When Ms. Sun Yulan came out of the study, what she saw was the scene where the three of them were standing next to each other, meeting their heads and picking up jigsaw puzzles.

Seeing them so lively, Sun Yulan also walked over and stood by the coffee table for a while.

Yin Bai, who was having a good time, suddenly felt a pair of eyes fall on her. She raised her head subconsciously. Unexpectedly, she saw a woman wearing a dark green cheongsam with a meticulous hairpin on her head and a gold rim. The elegant elderly woman with glasses stood beside her, looking at herself seriously.

Yin Bai blinked and yelled with some uncertainty: “How are you, Auntie?” Looking at this face, it is five or six points similar to Zuo Jingyou. Although it is too serious, it can be judged from the appearance that it should be Zuo Jingyou’s mother. Got it.

It was the first time Yin Bai had faced a friend’s elders, and he was a little worried.

Sun Yulan nodded and gave a hmm. She looked at Yin Bai, then at the two children who were still looking for puzzles, hesitated for a while, and tentatively asked, “Well, is this fun?”

The old professor is indulging in academics, and Wei really has never played with his granddaughters, so he has any family happiness.

Yin Bai looked at her in an unfamiliar tone, but with a somewhat eager appearance, inexplicably thought that this aunt might be just like herself, not very good at dealing with strangers.

She shifted her position and looked up at Sun Yulan, showing a very soft smile: “It’s quite interesting, do you want to come and play together?”

Sun Yulan’s eyes fluttered away from Yin Bai and fell back on the puzzle. She said five words like gold: “No, you play.”

After Sun Yulan finished speaking, she sat down on the sofa beside Yin Bai.

Yin Bai looked at her, and at the children who were still crazy comparing puzzles, shook his head and continued to play.
