Dressed As the Villain’s Mother - Chapter 43

He is not a fragile bud, he will slowly grow into a big tree

After the two children finished writing the self-criticism and checked it again, they were ready to hand over the self-criticism to their mother.

Ji Zhile looked at his own review of pinyin and the review of his brother’s handsome handwriting. The comparison was terrible. He was a kid who wanted to save face, so he said to Ji Ningyi with embarrassment: “Help me and hand it over to my mother.” .”

As soon as Ji Ning took it, he nodded and said, “OK.”

“Tell mom that I’m serious about writing.”

Ji Ning bent his lips and smiled: “Yes.”

Ji Zhile sat on the bed and waved to him: “Go quickly.”

I hope that my mother will praise him after reading his self-criticism, because he has really improved a lot compared to the last time he wrote a self-criticism. Teachers at school will praise students who have made progress.

Ji Ning gently opened the door and walked out of the room. When he looked down, he found that his parents were not in the living room. He thought about it and walked to the study.

The door of the study room was ajar, and before he got close, he heard his mother’s voice. Ji Ningyi was a little happy, and wanted to tell his mother that Zhile was willing to talk to him just now.

At this time, grandma’s voice came out: “Ning Yi can’t go on like this, find a psychiatrist for him, and listen to the doctor’s advice on whether to let the two children live apart temporarily.”

Ji Ning was stunned, and stood by the door holding the self-criticism, at a loss.

A psychiatrist is also a doctor. He only needs to see a doctor when he is sick. Is he mentally ill?

Is their family going to separate? Because he was worried that he would hurt Zhile again.

Ning Yi felt extremely uncomfortable, it was guilt.

After Si Tian left Ji Zhile’s room, she was ready to tell others everything that happened today.

There are a lot of people, and she is also a mother for the first time. When the child has such a problem, she doesn’t know how to deal with it more appropriately. What’s more, they are all Ning Yi’s family members, and they all care about Ning Yi. They should know .

Just as soon as I got downstairs, I saw Zhu Pan. The little girl has been looking for Ji Ningyi and Ji Zhile with them today. In the stairwell, he behaved hesitantly, as if he was waiting for someone.

Si Tian smiled warmly at the little girl: “What’s the matter, Panpan?”

This smile gave Zhu Pan great courage. She looked at Si Tian and asked carefully, “Auntie, are Ji Ningyi and Ji Zhile okay?”

Si Tiandian nodded and said, “The two of them are writing a review now, because they ran out of the house because they were playing hide-and-seek.”

Zhu Pan still doesn’t know what self-criticism is, because in their school, if a child does something wrong, he will eat a solid meal of fried pork with bamboo shoots. Is self-criticism a punishment similar to this?

Zhu Pan plucked up his courage and said, “Auntie, I didn’t take good care of them, so I let them run out. Don’t beat them.”

Si Tian wanted to laugh a little, is she like this in the eyes of the children? Hit people whenever there is a disagreement?

She said softly: “Panpan, it’s not your fault, Zhile and Ningyi ran out by themselves, it has nothing to do with you.”

But Zhu Pan said: “But I am older than them, I am an older sister, and my grandma asked me to take good care of them, but I failed.”

She is a very capable and brave little girl, but she said such depressing words, which made Si Tian feel a little shy when she saw her. She thought of Ning Yi again, and Ning Yi was also an elder brother.

Did he think the same way in the past, because he was older, so he had to give way to his younger brother and take good care of him, because he was an older brother, so he lost the right to be disobedient.

Si Tian said slowly: “Panpan, even if you are an older sister, you have no obligation to take care of your younger brother. Parents should take good care of their own children. Elder sisters are also children and should be taken care of by their parents.”

Zhu Pan didn’t quite understand Si Tian’s words. She felt that something was wrong, but it seemed to be the case again.

Because her classmates and friends basically have younger siblings at home, everyone is used to taking care of younger siblings, and they have to take them with them when they go out to play, and they have to take care of them when they go home. When the younger brother cries, the mother will also scold him.

But the aunt said that this is the responsibility of parents, and the texts they learn are also for parents to take care of their children.

The difference between reality and what was written in the book and what the aunt said now made this little girl who was only eight years old confused.

Si Tian continued: “I didn’t hit them. The purpose of writing a self-criticism is to let them write down their mistakes and reflections, so as to prevent the same mistakes from happening next time.”

Zhu Pan understood this sentence, she smiled, her teeth were white: “Auntie is so kind.”

She also used a lot of courage to say that sentence. She didn’t dare to say that to her parents at home, but her aunt was very gentle, so she dared to speak.

The beating hurts too much. Last time she was beaten by her mother with a clothes hanger, a long red mark swelled up on her arm, like a caterpillar. It hurts a lot when she takes a bath.

“Panpan, what are you doing there? Have you packed your things and just play here.” At this time, Grandma Fang’s voice came from not far away.

Then, Grandma Fang came out of the room on the first floor. When she looked up and saw Si Tian, ​​she immediately smiled and asked with concern: “Tiantian, how are the two children?”

Si Tian said, “Everything is fine.”

Grandma Fang is a very responsible servant. She takes good care of the vegetable field. The vegetables grow gratifyingly, and the food is delicious. She also cares about her two children, but she doesn’t use her responsibility on her granddaughter at all.

It’s not easy for Si Tian to say too much about other people’s family affairs.

Zhu Pan said, “Grandma, I’ve already packed it.”

Grandma Fang said, “Go and get your things and go home. Now I can catch the bus, otherwise I won’t be able to make it back and see you. I can only rest outside for one night.”

Si Tian frowned slightly, she knew that people of the older generation like to threaten and intimidate children, for example, if you don’t obey, you will be struck by lightning, we don’t want you.

But she doesn’t understand that a large part of children’s perception of the world comes from their parents. They don’t think it’s fake, they really believe it.

For example, when Si Tian was a child, the neighbor’s aunt often teased her, saying that she was picked up, and said that she had a nose and eyes, which made Si Tian think so for a long time.

It wasn’t until a certain period of time after growing up that she suddenly realized that these were all lies. Si Tian really hated such similar words.

Just like at this moment, if Zhu Pan really can’t catch the bus, Grandma Fang will definitely let her stay, but she just wants to use this to scare the child.

Sure enough, Zhu Pan immediately went to get his things out when he heard it, Si Tian stopped the little girl: “Wait a minute, Panpan.”

Then Grandma Fang said: “Aunt Fang, if Zhu Pan can’t go back today, she can definitely live here.”

Grandma Fang immediately waved her hand: “No, no, hope her mother is back, and there are people at home, so I’m bothering you here.”

“No interruption, Panpan has done a lot for us.” Si Tian said, “If Panpan wants to go back, he can ask the driver to take him to the station.”

Zhu Pan nodded. She wanted to go back. Although the place is very big and beautiful, and she doesn’t have to take her brother with her, she still wanted to go back to her own home. She felt very uncomfortable in someone else’s home.

“No need.” Grandma Fang refused again, “Panpan is so old, he can take the bus by himself. At home, he also takes the bus to go to school by himself.”

“Today Panpan helped us water the vegetables, and went to find Ning Yi and Zhile with us. She is also very tired today, and she should take a rest.” Stop talking.”

Only then did Grandma Fang say hello: “Thank you, Auntie, Panpan.”

Si Tian patted the little girl’s head, tore off the sticky note, wrote down her phone number and handed it to Zhu Pan: “If Panpan wants to find Ning Yi or Zhile, or wants to find auntie, you can call me if you have anything to do.” On the phone.”

Zhu Pan glanced at it and took it seriously. This was the first time she received an adult’s phone number, which made her feel as if she had grown up and was on an equal footing with her aunt. She smiled: “Thank you, Auntie. “

After asking the driver to send Zhu Pan away, Si Tian found Cheng Yangjiao and said, “Mom, I want to tell you about Ning Yi and Zhi Le.”

It is rare for their family to have a formal life like this. What happened today left a deep impression on everyone.

Si Tian said slowly: “I found Ning Yi by the lake, at first he was unwilling to come back…”

As she spoke, the atmosphere became more and more silent, and finally finished speaking, Cheng Yangjiao sighed, no one thought that Ning Yi, who was usually the most worry-free, had such a serious problem.

Ji Jiang Zhou’s head was slightly drooping, and his hands on his knees showed blue veins due to exertion. He was almost invincible in the mall, but now he fell into an unprecedented predicament.

Cheng Yangjiao was the first to speak: “Find Ning Yi a psychiatrist, and listen to the doctor’s advice on whether to let the two children live apart temporarily.”

This seems to be the best way for now.

As soon as Cheng Yangjiao finished speaking, there was a slight sound from the door. Ji Jiangzhou looked up and saw Ning Yi’s small figure running away in a panic between the cracks in the door. He stood up and said, “I’ll go and see Ning Yi.”

When he opened the door, he saw Ji Ning ran into his room and closed the door.

When Ji Jiangzhou approached, he knocked on the door, his voice was gentle: “Ning Yi, it’s Dad, can Dad want to chat with you?”

After he finished speaking, he waited for a minute or two before the door opened.

As soon as Ji Ning stood at the door, he looked at him timidly: “Father.”

At this moment, Ji Jiangzhou couldn’t tell what was going on in his heart, he opened the door and walked into the room, Ji Ning stood at the door hesitating, just looked at him quietly, but didn’t dare to touch him.

Ji Jiangzhou asked him to come and sit on the sofa together.

Ji Jiangzhou tried to speak: “I heard from my mother, it was the mothers in Ning who found Zhile today, right?”

Ji Ning lost his expression, he lowered his head: “I came back without waiting for Zhile alone, and left Zhile alone in the woods.”

Ji Jiangzhou said calmly, “I know Ning Yi didn’t do it on purpose, right?”

Ji Ning nodded.

Ji Jiangzhou paused, and then continued: “Ning Yi, each of us has a tiger in our hearts. Sometimes it will protect us, but sometimes it will trick us into doing some bad things. When we look back At that time, I will regret it, and I don’t know why I did it at that time.”

Ji Ning turned his head slightly to look at his father. He felt that what his father said was right and understood him very well. He also seemed to have a tiger in his heart, so was he bewitched by the tiger to do this bad thing?

“So, Ning Yi’s incident is not your fault, so don’t blame yourself too much.”

Ji Ning was silent for a while, and then asked softly, “Father, what if the tiger still does bad things in the future?”

Ji Jiangzhou said: “As long as we can shut down the tiger in our hearts, it will not do bad things.”

Ji Ning said: “I don’t seem to be able to do it.”

If he could, he wouldn’t have left Chiraku in the woods.

Ji Jiangzhou said: “So, we need a doctor to help us. Grandma just said that Ning Yi should go see a psychiatrist.”

Ji Ning nodded and was silent for a while, he asked: “Dad, is it because I went to see a doctor that our family is going to be separated?”

“No.” Ji Jiangzhou put his arms around the elder son’s shoulders and comforted him, “We will not separate, even if we want to see a psychiatrist, we will respect Ning Yi’s opinion.”

“I am willing.” Ji Ning asked in a low voice, “Father, will I really hurt Zhile?”

Ji Jiangzhou asked him instead: “Does Ning Yi want to protect Zhile?”

Ji Ning nodded, looking a little frustrated: “Father, I have been working hard to be a good brother and protect Zhile, but I didn’t do it well…”

“You have done a good job, Ning Yi. It turns out that you have been taking care of Zhile when Dad was not at home.” Ji Jiangzhou said, “But this is what parents should do. We left it to you, so that Ning I took a lot of responsibility and suffered a lot of grievances.”

Ji Ning shook his head: “I’m not wronged.”

Ji Jiangzhou touched his eldest son’s head: “I’m sorry Ning Yi, father will take care of you and Zhile in the future, you are Zhile’s elder brother and father’s child, you are a child just like Zhile, children are self-willed Naughty rights, Papa and Mama will never want you.”

Having received the promise again, something in Ji Ning’s heart seemed to be gradually filled.

He looked up at his father, who hugged him: “Ning Yi, father only hopes that you can grow up healthy and happy.”

What Ji Jiangzhou did was the same as that of most parents, hoping to give his children a sufficient living condition, no matter what Ning Yi wanted to do in the future.

But he seemed to have overlooked a lot of things, because Ning Yi is an older brother who is more obedient and sensible, so he naturally ignored his needs.

He felt that what Si Tian said just now was right, they were failed parents, and Ning Yi was an excellent child.

As soon as Ji Ning leaned on his father’s chest, he gave a soft “hmm”.

He likes his mother, because his mother has been growing up with him and gave him life and a lot of love. His mother’s promise is very important, but he also likes his father. Although his father doesn’t spend much time with them, he knows that his father also loves them. His, Dad works hard so that they can buy a lot of things to read and go to school.

They make up a family that can’t do without one of them.

After dinner, the family was ready to go back.

Ji Jiangzhou contacted a well-known child psychologist, and he will come to his home to meet Ji Ningyi tomorrow.

The two children were sitting in the car, although they were not as lively as when they were there, but at least they could talk to each other from time to time, and Si Tian didn’t expect them to be able to reconcile as before.

Looking back on what happened that day, it was really ups and downs, but Si Tian is glad that she came into contact with Ji Ningyi’s true thoughts, and the last two children are also fine.

After returning home, the story before going to bed continued. According to the round, I should sleep in Ji Ning’s room tonight. Ji Zhile didn’t seem to want to. She was wearing pajamas and her mouth was pouting slightly. Unhappy expression.

Si Tian laughed at him: “What’s wrong? Are you unhappy again?”

Ji Zhile didn’t speak.

Si Tian knows what he really thinks, and she is probably still unhappy about today’s events, so she would show displeasure when going to her brother’s room to sleep, but she deliberately teased Ji Zhile: “Is it true that Zhile has grown up and doesn’t want to Have you heard the story?”

“No, no!” Ji Zhile quickly denied it, fearing that his mother would misunderstand and really stop telling him stories in the future, how could this work? He is still in kindergarten.

“What is that for?”

Ji Zhile couldn’t hold back, and asked Si Tian to bend down, he leaned into her ear, and whispered, “I won’t sleep with my brother anymore.”

Si Tian stroked Ji Zhile’s hair and said, “Yes, can Zhile go back to her room after listening to the story? Because mom will be very tired after telling the story twice.”

Ji Zhile thought for a while, then nodded: “Yes.”

He feels that he is already a sensible child, so he doesn’t make his mother too tired, but he and his brother are not good enough to sleep together.

As usual, Si Tian sat between the two children and read a story.

The story is very simple. After Si Tian finished reading, Ji Zhile was already lying limply on her arm and was about to fall asleep.

The little face was fair and tender, and she was breathing quietly. When Si Tian got up and picked him up, Ji Zhile woke up, and said in a daze, “Have you finished the mother’s story?”

Si Tian said, “It’s over.”

Ji Zhile said: “I fell asleep, I didn’t finish listening, please tell me again.”

His voice was full of deep sleepiness, and Si Tian thought it was funny: “The storytelling is to lull you to sleep, now that you are asleep, you don’t need to listen to it.”

Ji Zhile tried to open his eyes wide, but he was so sleepy that he couldn’t see the specific things around him clearly, but his eyes fell on the doll on the bed: “Mom, my little bear.”

As soon as Ji Ning picked up the bear, he wanted to return it to Ji Zhile.

Si Tian said: “Have you forgotten, you lent this to your brother, and you have only been with him for a few days and you are going back?”

Ji Zhile seemed to think of something, and said softly “Oh”, he is a very trustworthy child: “Then don’t, Mom, I want to sleep.”

Si Tian hugged him and walked to his own room, and as soon as he was put on the bed, Ji Zhile immediately fell asleep, just like a little pig, who just wanted to listen to the story.

After leaving Ji Zhile’s room, Si Tian didn’t go back to her own room, but instead went to see Ji Ningyi.

Ji Ningyi hasn’t slept yet, he hugged Ji Zhile’s little bear doll, lowered his head and played with the little bear’s hand, a little silent.

Si Tian tried to comfort him: “Zhi Le doesn’t want to sleep with you now, I think it just takes some time.”

Ji Ningyi said: “I know, Mom, I won’t be sad, Zhile is willing to talk to me today.”

Si Tian said: “Ning Yi, my mother asked you how to get outside at grandma’s house today, I want you to tell me first, it’s not because you are the elder brother, it’s just that Zhile was in a bad mood at that time, so I asked you first.”

Si Tian didn’t want any misunderstanding between them, so she wanted to explain everything clearly.

Ji Ning nodded a little: “I know mother, I don’t care, I’m not so ignorant.”

Si Tian said, “I hope you are not sensible.”

“Go to bed early, Ning Yi, the psychiatrist will come to the house tomorrow, don’t be nervous.”

Ji Ning nodded: “I won’t be nervous, good night, mom.”

Si Tian left, Ji Ning rubbed the ear of the doll bear, and said softly: “Little bear, I don’t want my mother to treat me like this…”

He can feel that his mother is very careful with him after returning home, just like the classmates in the class treat the plant buds used for science homework. Others can’t take a look at them and touch them lightly, because they will scare the buds.

But as soon as Ji Ning felt that he was not a fragile bud, he would slowly grow into a big tree.

The next day, the psychiatrist arrived as scheduled. She was a woman in her thirties and forties with a reassuring aura.

When Ji Ning went upstairs alone with the psychiatrist, he was a little nervous, but his parents downstairs gave him encouraging looks, which made him feel that he would not be afraid of anything.

Ji Zhile looked at the stranger who appeared at home, and asked Si Tian: “Mom, who is that aunt?”

Si Tian said, “It’s the psychiatrist who came to see my brother.”

Ji Zhile only understood the last word: “Is my brother sick?”

“My brother is mentally ill, so I need a doctor to see him.”

Ji Zhile’s eyes were ignorant: “I’m not sick, so I don’t need to see a doctor.”

Si Tian said: “Yes, you haven’t. I hope that Zhile will never be mentally ill.”

Ji Zhile patted his small chest, and said proudly: “I won’t, I’m in good health.”

After the psychiatrist came out of Ji Ningyi’s room, he told Si Tian and Ji Jiangzhou alone that there was no need to separate the two children. Ji Ningyi’s age is the time when he needs to spend more time with his family. Children communicate and know their true thoughts, and they must be implemented in daily life, which cannot be completely resolved once.

After the psychiatrist left, Ji Ningyi was still a little uneasy, and asked Si Tian: “Mom, we don’t need to be separated, right?”

Si Tian said: “Of course not. Ning Yi has worked hard today. What would you like to eat for lunch? Mom…let Auntie do it.”

Originally, she wanted to say that she cooked it herself, but Si Tian didn’t think eating her own food was a reward.

Ji Zhile heard it from the side, and blinked, why didn’t his mother ask him what he wanted to eat?

But if my brother is sick, it doesn’t matter if I eat what my brother likes.

As soon as Ji Ning saw Ji Zhile’s eyes, he said, “Sweet and sour pork ribs, braised rabbit legs, steamed sea bass…”

He said a series of dish names, and finally Ji Zhile’s eyes became brighter, and he nodded excitedly, indicating that he could do it.

After finishing speaking, Ji Ning realized that he seemed to have said a lot, and he definitely couldn’t finish it, so he said hesitantly: “It is enough to do two or three of them, so that there will be no waste.”

Si Tian made the final decision: “Don’t waste it, just make these, just make less for each serving.”

Si Tian wrote down the name of the dish and went to tell the cooking aunt.

Ji Ning had a strange and subtle feeling in his heart, that he had the right to be self-willed if his not-so-reasonable demands were met.

At this time, Ji Zhile decided to lend his brother his doll bear for a few more days. If his brother came to his room to listen to the story today, he would be willing to give the upper bunk to his brother, because his brother is sick, and sick people can have special privileges. In addition, the dishes ordered by my brother at noon today are all his favorites, so he is very happy.

The story tonight was told in Ji Zhile’s room, but after the story was over, Ji Ningyi didn’t stay. He went back to his room just like Ji Zhile did yesterday.

Ji Zhile was a little unhappy, it was easy to tell, Si Tian really didn’t understand: “Why are you unhappy again?”

There were only the two of them in the room, so Ji Zhile murmured, “Why did brother go back?”

Si Tian looked at Ji Zhile strangely, seeing the unhappy expression on the child’s face, she knew that he didn’t want Ji Ning to go back.

It’s strange, obviously last night he was so arrogant and didn’t sleep with Ning Yi? What has changed now, Si Tian feels as if she understands that it is a double standard, and she is quite good at such a young age.

She said: “But you also went back to your room last night. My brother probably thought you didn’t want to sleep with him.”

Ji Zhile said, “I don’t want to!”

He denied it, afraid that his mother would misunderstand what he meant, so he immediately explained: “Brother sleeps on top, and I sleep on the bottom, not sleeping together!”

It makes a big difference.

But Si Tian really didn’t see any difference: “Then you have to tell brother if you want to sleep with him.”

Ji Zhile sat up excitedly: “I told you not to sleep together!”

He hasn’t fully forgiven his brother yet, how can he sleep with him? People who are very close can sleep together.

Si Tian spread her hands: “Then you have to tell brother, otherwise brother won’t know what’s on your mind.”

Ji Zhile was a little depressed: “I see.”

“Then go to bed early.”

“Good night Mom.”

Si Tian left, Ji Zhile lay on the bed but didn’t fall asleep immediately, recalling what her mother said in her mind, should she tell her brother what she thought? But he is still angry.

Mom too, why misinterpret his words? They said they didn’t sleep together.

The more Ji Zhile thought about it, the more he couldn’t sleep. The main reason was that he was not tired at all after playing at home all day. He got up from the bed and found his little notebook of grudges. He forgot to write them down when he got home yesterday. Write down what happened at grandma’s house the other day.

Ji Zhile seriously wrote down in his notebook: Mom punished me for writing a self-criticism.

And my brother, this is the first time my brother appears in Ji Zhile’s vengeance notebook, he wrote: My brother left me in the woods.

After thinking about it, I added: Brother didn’t do it on purpose, -50 points.

The full score is 100, and half can be deducted because it was not intentional, but he is too scared to be alone in the woods, and the remaining half cannot be deducted.

“My brother apologized to me, -10 points”

“My brother taught me to write, -10 points”

“My brother promised to help me with my homework in the future, -10 points”

“Brother is sick, -10 points”

“My brother ordered my favorite dish, -10 points”

After finishing writing, Ji Zhile was stunned, how come the reduction is over? But he hadn’t completely forgiven his brother yet.

No, no, he erased all the -10 with an eraser and replaced it with -5, that’s all right, hehe.

Ji Zhile was very satisfied with the solution he came up with, and when he was about to look again, his mother’s voice suddenly sounded outside the door: “Ji Zhile, why aren’t you sleeping?”

“I’m asleep.” Ji Zhile hurriedly hid the vengeance notebook, then lay on the bed and turned off the light.

This is his secret, and his mother cannot find out.
