Chapter 70

Finally, the staff presented Polaroid to all three people. Chu Xiaoxiao, Chu Xiaoyi and Liang Shuangqi each got photos and successfully completed their trip to the zoo.

After visiting the zoo, Chu Xiaoyi didn't go home for some time. He was busy flying around outside until he received a video call from his sister one day. He couldn't help but look surprised: "I haven't written a daily newspaper today."

Chu Xiaoyi mistakenly thought she came to urge the daily newspaper. It was strange why she suddenly called the video.

Chu Xiaoxiao always goes to the three treasures hall. She said solemnly, "when will you come back recently?"

"Not recently." Chu Xiaoyi turned to ask he Xin. He learned his itinerary and explained helplessly, "I'm going to fly out of town soon..."

Chu Xiao pursed his lips and said seriously, "I have something very important to discuss with you."

Chu Xiaoyi raised her eyebrows warily: "... You want to trick me into doing handicrafts again? You directly say what you want to do. Let's discuss it now."

Chu Xiaoxiao looked at his brother's face. The other party really didn't understand anything. She glared discontentedly and reminded him, "do you forget what day is coming soon?"

Chu Xiaoyi: "what day?"

Chu Xiaoxiao: "mom is going to celebrate her birthday at home this year!"

Chu Xiaoyi was stunned when he heard the speech. He quickly switched to the calendar page to check. Sure enough, he found that it was Xiao Bi's birthday right away. He set a birthday reminder, but there was still time before his mother's birthday, and the program didn't start. If he didn't think of it until he saw it, he might not be able to fly back from other places on his birthday.

Chu Xiaoxiao obviously had a much better memory than her brother. She was upright and small, and said in an orderly way: "let's discuss what to give mom. Dad said he had plans, so let's discuss it..."

As a social expert, Chu Xiaoxiao knows the importance of gift giving, relies on fruit snacks to get through the relationship with the program group, and knows that she should advance and retreat with her brother on her mother's birthday gift. She and her brother are in the same position. The gifts they prepare can't be too different, and her father is different from them.

Chu Xiaoyi was very ashamed. He didn't expect his sister to remind him of it. He wondered, "how did you spend last year?"

Chu Xiaoyi: how can I seem to lose my memory and can't remember anything?

Chu Xiaoxiao glanced at him silently and said faintly, "Mom was at school last year. She was very busy that day and didn't celebrate her birthday at home."

Xiao Bi took the third class of senior high school last year. It completely belongs to the earth. There is no explosion and there is no holiday in the third year of senior high school. She has no time for her birthday. It is late at night when she comes home after taking the evening self-study every day. She gets up early the next day and goes to school to see early reading. Her students blessed her at school, but she didn't stay at home too long that day.

Chu Xiaoyi suddenly realized that he sent a message to his mother last year. No wonder he was not impressed. He went on to calculate for two years that when he made stray barbecue, he didn't contact his family at all, and he didn't know his parents' birthday. His mother might as well have a piece of barbecue.

Chu Xiaoyi thought of the problems left over by history. He couldn't help but look big and humbly asked for help: "what did you send the year before last?"

Chu Xiaoxiao: "I sang an English song to my mother."

Chu Xiaoyi knows that this is a blessing means for children. She can't do much. Singing and performance is also a form. Since Chu Xiao had used singing skills before, he used songs to celebrate his mother's birthday, which seemed a little repetitive.

Chu Xiaoxiao finally couldn't help asking him a series of questions: "do you know what your mother wants?"

Chu Xiaoyi had a headache and said, "I can't know for a while. At least you meet her at home every day..."

Chu Xiaoxiao heard that he was going to throw the pot, and immediately said seriously, "then you know her 20 years earlier than me! How did you live in front of you?"

Chu Xiaoyi was asked on the spot. For a moment, he looked in a trance and hesitated: "we... Don't live much?"

Chu Xiaoyi desperately recalls the scene of his childhood, but he only has the picture of his fifth or sixth birthday, but he doesn't have a deep impression of his parents' birthday. Adults no longer seem to need the so-called sense of ceremony. The birthday of middle-aged people is not something to celebrate. They always spend it lightly. Only the birthdays of children and the elderly will be remembered.

Chu Xiaoyi thought of her grandparents' 80th birthday and didn't figure out Xiao Bi's birthday. He seemed to celebrate his mother several times when he was young, but with the arrival of adolescent rebellion, some things disappeared inexplicably. Parents say they don't have a birthday. There is really little formal sense of birthday at home.

Chu Xiao is now more than five years old. Of course, she thinks her birthday is very important, which is still new to her. When she saw that her brother had no constructive opinions, she said helplessly: "I always think that video with you is a waste of home traffic..."

Chu Xiaoxiao: why don't you know anything? You've lived so much longer than me!

Chu Xiaoyi couldn't explain the adult numbness to her. He had to be embarrassed and said, "let me think about it first. I'll try to come back and discuss it with you."

After Chu Xiaoyi hung up, he didn't know what his mother wanted for a long time. Xiao Bi is a person with low material desire. She doesn't have so many requirements for others. From another point of view, it's also not easy to be flattered. She has always been an implicit and stable character. The most chaotic day is when her father and son fight at home. It is estimated that it is the time that makes her collapse most.

Chu Xiaoyi and his father Chu Jiadong gradually reconciled, which was the result of each step back. They all made mistakes more or less, and finally groped for a compromise. Chu Xiaoyi didn't know how to mention the past to his mother. He knew that he had unconsciously hurt his mother, but he couldn't find an opportunity to apologize. It was strange to mention it suddenly in his daily life.

Xiao Bi is like a quiet and sensible classmate in the past class. She won't embarrass people directly or express her views fiercely, so she is always ignored. Chu Xiaoyi subconsciously felt that his mother would always tolerate himself. At that time, he would rashly run away from home. Perhaps he thought he would be forgiven by her for what he did.

Chu Xiaoyi now wants to make up for it. Only then does he find that what he can do for his mother is limited. She is not lacking in material and spirit. She is an independent and powerful woman, which makes Chu Xiaoyi unable to start.

Fortunately, Chu Xiaoyi now has a sister. He went home and held a meeting with Chu Xiaoxiao to seriously discuss the preparation of his mother's birthday gift.

Chu Xiaoxiao no longer has expectations for her brother. She recently had some ideas and proposed: "I'm going to make a souvenir book to record our memories with our mother. You can make one according to it and we'll divide it into two volumes."

Xueba Chu Xiao took out his semi-finished souvenir book and gave it to Xuexia's brother for reference. She was so kind that she almost took out the correct answer and asked him to copy his homework directly. Chu Xiaoyi flipped through her souvenir book and browsed the page with pictures and texts. If she ignored her soul painting skills, it was really a thoughtful gift.

Chu Xiaoyi made the second volume. She recorded it according to time. Chu Xiaoyi was born earlier than her. Of course, she was responsible for making the first volume. She is currently the publisher and cover designer of the album, and Chu Xiaoyi is the responsible editor.

When Chu Xiaoyi finished reading the sample of his sister's memorial album, he suddenly found something wrong and reminded him, "wait, but you only write about five years at most, but I want to write about 25 years?"

Chu Xiaoyi: there's a big difference in the amount of homework. I'm five times more than you!

Chu Xiao blinked and said innocently, "you can't blame me? Who made you live so long."

When Chu Xiaoyi heard the speech, he immediately wanted to pinch her small face angrily: "how to talk..."

Chu Xiaoxiao saw that his brother wanted to find something again. The brother and sister immediately pinched together on the sofa, calmed down after the beating of chickens and dogs, and sat at the table together to make their own souvenirs.

Chu Xiaoyi has endless problems. Every time he draws two strokes, he has to talk to his sister and ask her for opinions on her memorial album, which makes the little girl upset.

Chu Xiaoxiao wanted to concentrate on her work. She didn't like the feeling of being interrupted frequently. She immediately jumped out of her chair and made a clear distance with him. She said positively, "we go back to the house to create, and we can't always disturb each other!"

When Chu Xiaoyi saw her escape, he laughed childishly: "I don't want to create with you!"

The brief alliance between brother and sister collapsed in an instant. They went back to their houses to make souvenirs and planned to meet again later.

Before long, Chu Xiaoxiao concentrated on drawing the first edition in the room. She went to Chu Xiaoyi's room to inspect the progress with the memorial book in her arms, but found that he was lying on the bed!

Chu Xiaoyi's memorial album was randomly placed on the table. He covered his head tightly with a quilt, revealing only his feet in dark socks. It looked like taking a lazy nap.

Chu Xiaoxiao caught her brother's laziness. She put her souvenir book away, immediately jumped into bed, lifted the quilt and complained, "Hey! I can't rest yet!"

Chu Xiaoxiao: what is this, brother? I just didn't stare for a while, and he openly began fishing!

Chu Xiaoren is small and light. She can't lift the heavy quilt at all. She can only leave the quilt corner discouraged and give birth to new ideas in an instant. She opened the gap of the quilt, like a little mole drilling into the ground, climbed into the quilt and decided to give justice to her brother!

Chu Xiao tried his best to get in, but was surprised to find that his brother didn't sleep. She saw Chu Xiaoyi lying awake on the bed through the faint light from the gap. He used the quilt to create a dark space for himself to hide. She didn't know what he was thinking quietly.

Chu Xiaoxiao arched a small earth bag into the quilt. They were covered in the quilt. It was a little stuffy. She forcibly expanded the space in the quilt and said in surprise: "do you want to suffocate yourself?"

Chu Xiaoyi was depressed. He didn't want to be photographed by the camera, so he covered himself firmly and said in a stuffy voice: "I can't make a souvenir book..."

Chu Xiaoxiao guessed that he would give up halfway and immediately advised him in a good voice: "you can compress it and don't write so much!"

Chu Xiaoxiao was only cheap. His brother disliked too much work, so he would abandon himself and refuse to make it. He would rather straighten out his body in the quilt.

Chu Xiaoyi was silent for a moment and said in a low voice, "no, I don't think there is anything to commemorate. What I left to my mother is bad memories..."

"..." Chu Xiao didn't expect him to say this. For a moment, she fell silent and was at a loss.

Chu Xiaoyi said with a bitter smile: "I didn't study well. I was naughty and mischievous every day. I was still making a scene at home in high school. It seems that I haven't done anything serious."

Chu Xiaoxiao had no idea what had happened at home. All adults deliberately avoided the wound. She vaguely felt the dispute between her brother and her father, but she didn't understand what it had to do with her mother. She often heard her brother boast. It was rare to see him so lost and said blankly, "but don't you always say you're doing well now?"

Chu Xiaoyi: "I'm ok, but it's of no use to my mother. She can have what I can give her. It doesn't matter whether I have it or not..."

Chu Xiaoyi is really popular now, but it is his own career. His reputation has brought nothing to his mother. Xiao Bi will never mention her eldest son at school, which will undoubtedly cause a lot of trouble. She has very few shots during the program, and occasionally needs the program group to code. Some netizens think aunt is very good-looking, but they always can't see her positive lens, even a little regret.

Chu Xiaoyi earns a lot of money, but Xiao Bi is not a material person. She is quite low-key in food and clothing. As a teacher of a famous school, her income is good. Even if it is not as high as that of a star, she is good enough among ordinary people to live well in the imperial capital. From the perspective of family background alone, Xiao Bi is even stronger than Chu Jiadong. The education level of grandparents is higher than that of grandparents, and grandparents also have some prestige.

Chu Xiaoyi felt that her mother was a full-scale number. If she didn't give birth to herself, she would have had a good life. At least my sister can bring her some happiness. It seems that he just brings her headache and trouble?

Chu Xiaoxiao looked at his brother who was wilting. She always hated him, but when she saw that the other party was so depressed, she held his fingers in panic and said, "you suddenly finished my words, so I don't know what to say..."

Chu Xiaoyi was always arrogant and proud. Chu Xiaoxiao could beat him a word or two. Now he has finished her way, but he has left her no way to go. He belittled himself so much that even she couldn't stand it.

Chu Xiaoxiao held his brother's two fingers in her small hand. She saw him self closing hiding in the quilt and straightening out his body. She didn't know how to encourage him to cheer up.
