I Became the Mother of His Child
Chapter 392: Typical Sister Complex
CHAPTER 392: CHAPTER 392: TYPICAL SISTER COMPLEX
"Okay, teacher, then I’ll take my brother and sister home now," Song Chengguang spoke politely, "Little Baby and Little Moon, say goodbye to the teacher too." Song Chengguang took on the role of the big brother as he prompted his younger siblings to say farewell to their kindergarten teacher.
"See you tomorrow, teacher," Little Moon politely spoke up.
"Goodbye, teacher," Little Baby followed with a smile, raising his hand to wave at the teacher.
"Mhm, goodbye," the kindergarten teacher watched the lovely, polite, and sensible children with a genuine smile, "Be careful on the way home, okay?" She didn’t forget to remind them once more to be safe on their journey home.
After picking up his siblings, Song Chengguang and the four of them, including Shi Yu, slowly made their way home. Song Chengguang, having been worried about Little Baby all day, now held his sister’s hand and began to relax. He then started to ask about Little Baby’s day at kindergarten, "Did you have fun at kindergarten today? Did anyone bully Little Baby?" This was Song Chengguang’s most pressing concern.
"No," Little Baby chuckled and shook his head, "The kids are all kind, and they even shared their snacks with Chen Xi! Chen Xi loves kindergarten and playing hide-and-seek with the other children." Little Baby wasn’t fond of kindergarten at first; she didn’t want to leave her mother and wanted to cling to her. But today, when she arrived at kindergarten and saw so many children and all the snacks they had, her reluctance to attend instantly vanished.
"Mhm," Song Chengguang slightly relaxed upon hearing this.
"Brother, Chen Xi wants to go back to kindergarten tomorrow," Song Chenxi said while walking with her little legs, her tone filled with anticipation.
"Mhm, okay," Song Chengguang readily agreed.
"Brother, classmate Zhu Ming said he is going to bring me a cake to eat tomorrow. Chen Xi wants to eat, can I?" Song Chenxi, this little clever girl, had been disheartened before when Little Moon seriously told her she shouldn’t accept food from outsiders, so now she inquired with Song Chengguang.
Generally speaking, Song Chengguang never refused her requests, and he had hardly encountered a situation where he needed to.
"I’ll ask Mom to make a cake when we get home, and you can bring it to kindergarten to eat tomorrow, okay?" Song Chengguang was also worried about Song Chenxi eating food from outside, uncertain of its cleanliness, but he could have their mom make a cake for Little Baby to eat.
"Really?" Little Baby asked eagerly, "Can it be a strawberry cake?"
"Mhm, yes, a strawberry cake."
"Thank you, brother!" Little Baby achieved her goal of wanting to eat cake and immediately beamed with extra sweetness, "Chen Xi loves brother the most."
Hearing this, Song Chengguang instantly felt a great deal of satisfaction, "Brother loves Chen Xi the most too," he said, lips curling into a smile.
"Woof woof..." As the four children just arrived home, they were greeted by Little Huang’s barking at the doorstep, eager to welcome the little masters. Previously, Song Chengguang and Little Huang had an extremely close relationship, but as he grew older and Little Huang got bigger, it was Little Huang who became even more affectionate with Song Chenxi and Little Baby.
Xu Xiuxiu often couldn’t help but sigh at this sight, thinking how truly blessed Little Baby Song Chenxi was, even Little Huang spoiled her excessively.
"Thank you, Little Huang." Little Baby looked at Little Huang as it brought her pink slippers she wore at home, and she immediately hugged and thanked the dog with a beaming smile.
"Little Huang is way too opportunistic, always bringing slippers only for Little Baby." Just like Song Chengguang, the differential treatment was very obvious. However, it seemed that the whole Song Family was the same. Aside from Aunt Xiu Xiu, who always treated all the kids equally, everyone else spoiled Little Baby to no end. Although he had gotten used to it, every time he saw Little Huang fawning over Little Baby, he couldn’t help but think back to last year when Song Chengguang forced him to wash Little Huang’s poopy messes.
Shi Yu’s sentiment wasn’t initially so profound, but due to Yuan Shixiang being busy with work recently, and Shi Yan Ting having emergency duties at the military academy, Shi Yu ended up as a child without supervision. Thus, getting dispatched to the Song Family to freeload meals and drinks, he witnessed the terrifying extent to which they spoiled their little princess.
"It’s nothing." Song Chengguang didn’t think there was anything amiss. Seeing how attentive Little Huang was toward Little Baby, he was actually happier than anyone else.
"Ah!" Resigned, Shi Yu sighed upon hearing this.
"Are you back?" Xu Xiuxiu, because it was the boy and girl twins’ first day of school, and both Song Chengguang and Shi Yu had the honor of becoming primary school students, started to meticulously prepare a lavish dinner for them: "Go wash your hands and eat." Xu Xiuxiu greeted the four kids with a cheerful smile.
"Wow, there’s spicy diced chicken and boiled fish, I’m going to wash my hands right away." Spotting the variety of delicious dishes on the table, Shi Yu’s saliva flew, not holding back at all. Tossing his backpack aside, he darted into the washroom to wash his hands without any reservations typical of a guest freeloading meals and drinks.
"Shi Yu, step aside, let Little Baby wash first." Song Chengguang casually put Little Baby’s backpack in place, then led Little Baby into the washroom. Upon seeing Shi Yu, with his hands half-washed and covered in soap, he spoke up directly.
"Chengguang, don’t be like that! I’m already halfway done..." Shi Yu puffed his cheeks, feeling utterly helpless, truly speechless at the sister complex.
"Hmm?" Song Chengguang swept over him with a questioning gaze, full of authority.
Two years earlier, when Song Chengguang was younger, Shi Yu had tricked him into fighting, leading him to do bad things, but now, two years later, Shi Yu no longer dared to question Song Chengguang’s decisions. He simply couldn’t defeat Song Chengguang in a fight, and every time they trained, it turned into Chengguang beating him up one-sidedly, a very embarrassing one-sided beating, where Shi Yu stood no chance at all.
"Alright!" Sensing the situation, Shi Yu gave in, watching as Song Chengguang brought over a stool for Little Baby to stand on, then gently washed her little hands. Only afterward did he snatch back the sink from her.
"Little Moon hasn’t washed yet!" Although Song Chengguang was a sister complex person, he couldn’t help but care for Little Moon, his all-too obedient and well-behaved younger brother. When he was finished taking care of Little Baby, he inadvertently also took care of Little Moon. So, just as Shi Yu was about to finish washing up, he had to give up the washbasin under the forceful glare of Song Chengguang for Little Moon to use.
Little Moon was calm by nature, having been so ever since he was a child. After washing his hands leisurely, he finally took a seat in his own special spot in the living room.
"Alright, let’s eat!" Xu Xiuxiu watched as the children finished washing their hands and spoke up. Since it was Monday of the week, and Song Yuanhuan was at the military academy, the house only had Xu Xiuxiu and the four children. With a special feast prepared by Xu Xiuxiu, the dining table was full of joy.
However, as Song Chengguang earnestly nibbled on his favorite sweet and sour ribs, he suddenly stopped using his chopsticks halfway through eating and stood up with an unpleasant expression, heading for the washroom.
