Chapter 8 Xiaoxi is a little sad
"Mommy..."

Hearing Xiao Xixi's call, Song Ling hurried back into the house.

Seeing Xiao Xixi looking around in panic, she hurried forward, stretched out her arms to hug her, and asked softly, "My baby Xixi is awake, are you hungry?"

Xiao Xixi hugged her tightly with her arms, and replied in a childish voice: "Mommy, I'm not hungry, I just miss Mommy..."

Song Ling kissed her on the forehead and coaxed her with a smile, "Mommy has been thinking about Xiao Xixi too, now that we are back at grandpa and grandma's house, we will be with grandpa and grandma from now on, okay?"

"Grandpa and grandma?" Xiao Xixi blinked, as if she didn't think of them.

Song Ling also remembered that the last time Xiao Xixi saw Song's father and Song's mother was more than half a year ago.

Since Xiao Lele passed away and the original owner divorced He Qihang, the original owner never brought her back.

Children around three years old are prone to forgetting things. It is normal for her not to remember her grandparents.

When she meets someone, she may have a sense of familiarity, and after a few days of getting along, she will become familiar.

Thinking of this, Song Ling smiled and said to her, "Come on, Mommy will tie Xiao Xi's hair. When she's done dressing up, we'll go down and play with grandpa and grandma, okay?"

Xiao Xixi replied coquettishly, "Okay~"

As long as Mommy is by her side, no matter where Mommy takes her, she can do it.

Song Ling helped her comb her hair, washed her face, and arranged her clothes before leading Xiao Xixi downstairs.

Arriving at the seafood restaurant on the first floor, Song Ling found Mama Song and Aunt Lihua who were washing vegetables in the backyard.

Aunt Lihua is also from their village, a helper hired by Song's father and Song's mother. She is honest and hardworking, and she has been working in their restaurant for many years.

Song Ling greeted them with a smile, "Mom, Aunt Lihua, you are busy here!"

Aunt Lihua smiled at Song Ling, "Lingling is back."

Seeing Song Ling leading Xiao Xixi down, Song Ma quickly got up, wiped her hands, and walked towards them.

Song's mother looked at Xiao Xixi who had lost a lot of weight, and she felt distressed, so she smiled and coaxed Xiao Xixi, "Oh, baby Xiaoxi woke up, are you hungry? Grandma will make you shrimp rice rolls ,OK?"

Xiao Xixi gave Song Ma a timid look, then quickly hid behind Song Ling, sticking out only one head, looking at Song Ma shyly.

Song Ling looked at her cute little appearance, couldn't help laughing, "Xixi, this is grandma, mommy's mommy, please call grandma."

Only then did Xiao Xixi call out delicately, "Grandma is good~"

Song Ma replied happily: "Hey, my baby Xiaoxi is so good!"

Song Ling taught Xiao Xixi to shout again: "This is Granny Lihua, you call Granny Lihua."

Xiao Xixi looked curiously at Aunt Lihua who was smiling at her, and then called out childishly, "Hello, Grandma Lihua!"

Aunt Lihua also responded with a happy smile: "Hey, Xiaoxi is so good!"

Song's mother said to Aunt Lihua: "Ah Hua, you are busy here first, I will take Lingling and Xiaoxi to sit up front."

Aunt Lihua hurriedly said, "Okay, I'll finish this soon, you can take Lingling and Xiaoxi to drink tea."

Song Ma took Song Ling and Xiaoxi back to the front shop and wanted to make tea for Song Ling.

Song Ling got up quickly, took the teapot from her hand, "Mom, I'll do it myself."

Song's mother didn't stop her, and asked her again, "Are you and Xiaoxi hungry too? I'll cook something for you first, what do you want to eat?"

Song Ling thought for a while, and replied, "Let's cook a bowl of pork offal soup and rice noodles!"

"Okay, just wait."

After Mama Song finished answering, she went into the kitchen to work.

Song Ling saw Xiaoxi sitting obediently on the stool, looking around with only a pair of big eyes.

Song Ling asked her softly, "Xiao Xi, do you still remember this place at Grandma's house? Mommy brought you here many times before."

Xiao Xixi turned her head to the side and thought for a while before returning to her, "Mum, I seem to have been here before, but I don't seem to remember much."

Song Ling reached out and rubbed her head, "It's okay, we will live here from now on, and this will be our home from now on."

Xiao Xixi was startled, and quickly asked her, "Mummy, aren't we going home then?"

Song Ling knew that she was referring to Pengcheng's home.

She answered patiently: "Xiaoxi, mom and dad are divorced. From now on, Xiaoxi will be with her mother and grandparents. We don't want the home in Pengcheng."

Xiao Xixi burst into tears when she heard this, "Mom, are you really divorced from Dad? Then have I become a child that Dad doesn't want?"

The auntie nanny also told her before that her parents are going to divorce, so she will not be wanted in the future.

Song Ling held her in his arms with open arms, "Xiaoxi, although your father and I divorced, you are still your father's child, and you still have a father, you know?"

Xiao Xixi pursed her lips, feeling aggrieved, but didn't know what to say, so she just buried her head in Song Ling's arms and shed tears silently.

Song Ling sighed softly, and didn't know how to comfort the child, so he could only hold her tightly, and reached out to stroke her back, trying to soothe her wounded heart.

Everyone says that when parents divorce, the children are the ones who suffer the most.

Regardless of whether the child follows the father or the mother, this single-parent family is incomplete for the child.

Song Ling couldn't change this fact.

She can only try her best to give her more love and make up for it, so that she can get more and live a better life in other aspects.

When Song's mother came out with pork offal soup and rice noodles, she saw Xiao Xixi crying, and she glared at Song Ling, "Why is Xiaoxi crying? Did you provoke her again?"

Song Ling said innocently, "I didn't mess with her."

She lowered her head and asked Xiaoxi again, "Baby Xiaoxi, is Mommy right?"

Xiao Xixi rubbed against Song Ling's body, shedding her tears on her clothes, and then looked up at Song's mother, "Grandma, I'm fine, Xiaoxi is just a little sad, I'll be fine in a while~"

Hearing her well-behaved and sensible answer, both Song Ling and Song Ma felt a little heavy in their hearts.

Song's mother quickly changed the subject, "Xiaoxi, grandma cooked rice noodles with pig offal soup for you. It's delicious. Come and try it."

Smelling the delicious and sweet smell, Xiaoxi also felt a little hungry, so she responded happily, "Okay, let me taste it~"

Song Ling went to the disinfection cabinet and brought a set of small bowls and chopsticks for children, and gave Xiao Xixi a small bowl for her to eat slowly.

The original owner used to take Xiao Xixi at home and taught her to eat by herself.

Three-year-old Xiao Xixi has learned to eat by herself, and she eats well, and no longer needs to be fed by adults.

Song Ling ate two mouthfuls of pork offal and one mouthful of noodles, and immediately praised Song Ma's cooking skills, "Mom, the rice noodles with pork offal soup you made are still so delicious."

Song Ma replied with a smile: "The pork and pig offals we use at home have always been local pork raised in Uncle Afu's farm at the end of the village. It is tastier and more expensive than those feed pigs."

Song Ling nodded and smiled, "That's for sure, you get what you pay for."

Song Ling asked Song's mother again, "Mom, where is my dad? Has he gone to buy seafood? Why hasn't he come back?"
