Chapter 609 308. Sunflower: Her Smell
Regarding the fact that Sang Ping is Xiaoche’s stepmother.

Li An has never mentioned even half a word to anyone on any occasion, and it is impossible for Chen Xuan?
So when Xiao Ji mentioned this matter, his first reaction was whether Che Lin said it herself, but then he rejected his idea.

Impossible, she knew Che Lin's character.

Li An frowned, "Who did you listen to?"

Xiao Ji hurriedly explained: "Teacher, I guessed it, no one told me."

Then Li An's brows relaxed, and then he nodded, answering Ji Yang's question.

For a moment, he thought about clarifying this issue to Ji Yang: "Her parents divorced when she was very young, and this mother came to her home when she was in fourth grade."

Li An's answer made Ji Yang clear what he had been thinking all along. She had never heard Che Lin call her mother, unlike Wang Xiaohu and the others, and every time she and Sang Ping stood together, they gave people the impression that the picture was not completely harmonious. Feel.

Say no, sometimes it looks bright like the major third interval, say kiss, sometimes it looks dim like the minor third interval.

Unlike her and her mother, who were innocent when they kissed, she was born from her mother's belly, and when they had a dispute, she was the most uncoordinated second degree.

"Teacher." Xiao Ji asked more carefully, "Is she at home?"

Li An knew what Xiao Ji wanted to ask, so he explained it first, "Although she is a stepmother, Sang Ping is very good to Che Lin." Then he reminded, "You must not mention this matter to the children."

After hearing the first half of the teacher's words, Xiao Ji breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Don't worry, teacher."

Li An continued to add: "She has a high status at home. There are some things that I can't tell you right now. Anyway, you must be proud and pretend you don't know."

At this time, the waiter brought the cucumber dumplings first, "Mr. Li, these are yours."

Ang Lee: "Thank you, thank you."

The entire Yudong campus, under the leadership of Li An and Qin Yong, has developed the habit of going downstairs to the Dumpling City without making any decision.

14 big dumplings cost 18 yuan. You can't buy it at a loss or be fooled. It's not an advertisement. Before Fang Zheng lost weight, he could make dumplings for 28 yuan alone, plus a bowl of dumpling soup.

"You're welcome." The waiter put down the dumplings and left. Li An picked up his chopsticks and extended an invitation, "Try this first."

Xiao Ji was very tactful, "Teacher, you eat, you eat, I'll wait for mine, hehe."

"Tch, don't think it's vegetarian," Li An shook his head, "Oh, it's not good to eat, I won't wait for you," he said, picking up a dumpling with his chopsticks and feeding it to his mouth, and the fragrance of cucumber hit his face.

Li An finished eating two dumplings, and Xiao Ji's shrimp and meat dumplings were also served. Teacher and student, you had a meat dumpling and I had a vegetarian dumpling. They ate happily.

"Hey Jiyang."

"what."

"How did you find out?"

"what?"

"Cherin."

"Oh, on the day of the Blue Sky Cup preliminary round, Che Lin's mother came with her younger brother in her arms. I didn't hear Che Lin call her mother all day long. At first, I thought Che Lin had this kind of personality, but similar situations happened several times later. "

"Then I noticed that she looked nothing like her father. Her father had a square face, she had a pointed face, but her mother had a round face."

"Do you remember that I sent her back after rehearsal last Tuesday?"

Ang Lee: "Yes, and then."

Xiao Ji: "I planned to get off the subway, but when her mother saw me getting off the train, she invited me to come in and sit for a while. I said no, and then I chatted with her mother for a while at the door of her community, and she stood next to her. Very uncomfortable."

Li An: "Why are you uncomfortable?"

Xiao Ji recalled: "I felt that she wanted to invite me in, but she seemed worried about me coming in. I couldn't tell specifically. Anyway, she seemed quite troubled."

"According to what I know about Che Lin, in that situation, she would definitely follow her mother's words and drag me in. At that time, we were less than 20 meters away from the entrance of her store."

Li An: "It is true that with her character, she definitely wanted you to go and sit at her home."

Xiao Ji: "I was thinking about this issue on the way back. Later I learned about Che Lin's situation at school, and I became even more convinced of this possibility, so I also wanted to use this trip to give Che Lin a special day. ’s birthday.”

Li An: "Since you have already plotted, don't let Che Lin know about it in advance. Just pretend as if nothing happened and let me think about it again and you think about it too,"

Xiao Ji: "Thank you, teacher."

Li An smiled: "What's there to thank you for? Eat quickly."

After dinner, Li An sent Ji Yang to the bus stop, "Don't play too late, we'll leave tomorrow."

"be careful."

Xiao Ji made an appointment with Xiao Wu in the afternoon, and in the evening he and several high school classmates treated their class teacher to dinner.

"Yeah." Xiao Ji then asked, "Teacher, what kind of flowers do you think we should give to the class teacher?"

Li An: "I really don't know what it means. I think teachers like flowers as long as they are sent by students."

Xiao Ji: "Oh, teacher, do you have any flowers you like more?"

Ang Lee: "Me? Flowers are all the same to me, there is no difference."

Xiao Ji didn't want to give up easily, "Then if you were asked to pick a bouquet of flowers for Master on Teacher's Day, what flowers would you pick?"

Li An raised his left eyebrow, it was Teacher's Day soon, and the little guys were secretly thinking about something again, "Ji Yang, I remind you, don't let them spend money to buy me anything this Teacher's Day. Including yourself, do you hear me?"

Xiao Ji: "Oh, I heard it. I just don't know what flowers to buy for my class teacher. Please help me with some ideas."

Li An thought for a while: "You can take sunflowers as a reference. The color is neutral and the meaning is good."

Xiao Ji touched his chin: "It makes sense."

Then a bus came from afar. Xiao Ji put down his hand and said, "Thank you, teacher. Go and do your work. I have to leave."

Li An didn't know where Xiao Ji was going, so he didn't think much about it, "We will gather at 08:30 tomorrow night. I will inform the parents again tonight, and you can also inform the children."

Xiao Ji: "Okay, teacher."

The teachers and students parted ways, and Li An walked back. Xiao Ji got on the bus and immediately took out his mobile phone @Everyone: Sunflower
The children who received the message immediately started discussing it.

We are leaving tomorrow, and it is definitely too late to buy online now. Finally, the children discussed finding tutorials online and bringing their own materials to make them.

Regarding the fact that the teacher did not receive their message at the end of the concert, several children felt guilty. It was not that they did not think about it. It was senior sister Ji Yang who told them on the phone at noon that they did not need to prepare.

In the end, senior sister Ji Yang prepared a huge bouquet for them, so this made them want to send a special bouquet of flowers to the teacher at this summer camp event, which could be considered as filling their guilt.

"Make sunflowers?"

Lao Che scratched his head. He had been a chef for half his life and had never heard of anyone frying sunflowers as a vegetable. He knew how to stir-fry melon seeds.

Nail seemed to understand: "Handmade?"

Car: "Yes, yes."
-
On the third floor of Yudong Harmony, Laoche and his family of five were shopping.

Che Lin is going on a long trip tomorrow. The family went out for a walk today, bought a suitcase for the car, and bought two new clothes. In short, Lao Che and Sang Ping's plan today is to buy whatever they see that suits Che Lin. , just buy whatever you want.

This was their original plan, but after being out for a while, when they asked Che Lin what they wanted, Che Lin said she didn't need it.

Putting the two adults in various dilemmas, Lao Chexin said that you must at least have a suitcase, but Xiaoche said that she has her little red schoolbag, as if the little red schoolbag can hold the whole world.

Sang Ping had long wanted to add some clothes to the car.

Not to mention that the child has grown in size this year, and will soon go to junior high school. As a girl, she needs some decent clothes as she gets older.

She didn't just think about it, she had always said that she would take the car shopping in the past two months, but the car would not cooperate for various reasons.

So she chose some new clothes for the car on the Internet, thinking that the weather would be hot and the children would be cooler. She saw that the skirts worn by the little girls in the pictures were very beautiful, and she felt that the car could be even more beautiful.

As a result, the dress was not even tried on when it arrived in the car, and the couple did not dare to say anything.

It was not easy today to bring the car out with her. She thought that she had to fill the child with some clothes.

But so far there has been zero progress.I don’t know what Xiaoche was tinkering with on his mobile phone, but suddenly he said he wanted to make sunflowers.

Lao Che wondered what Sunflower did, but Naili understood.

Seeing Xiao Che nodding, Nail Dike patted his chest and said, "You don't have to worry about it anymore. Leave it to me. I'll do it for you."

Car: "I want to do it myself."

Nail: "Can you?"

Before the car could take a closer look at Ma Kefa's tutorial: "I can learn it after learning it."

Nail: "Who did you learn from?"

Car: "There are tutorials online, and I need some ingredients now."

Ding Ding's heart was moved, and he said with a contemptuous smile: "Stop talking, you can't learn from anyone as much as the boss's wife. When we had a big banquet before, all the front-end decorations were made by the boss's wife and the waiters. She is the best at arranging flowers. .”

After Naizi said this, Xiaoche seemed to have some impression. She was still very young at that time, and Aunt Sang didn't live in her house. Sometimes when her father was particularly busy, Aunt Sang would give her some beautiful flowers to play with.

He couldn't help but turn his eyes to Sang Ping.

Sang Ping knows how to arrange flowers. During the etiquette training for hotel waiters, she learned very carefully and did not mess around with nails. She used to be responsible for arranging the front court at Yulong, but that was arranging flowers and setting tables, not making flowers.

But facing the car's eyes flashing with expectation, how could she shrink back.

Smiling softly, "I can, I'll teach you."

Xiaoche suddenly no longer cared about the awkwardness in his heart, and looked at Sang Ping with a rare smile on his face.

Seeing this, Lao Che said: "Wait a minute, you can learn if you want, but you have to be obedient first. We have bought all the things, and we will do handicrafts together when we get home in the evening."

When Xiaoche heard what her father said, she felt "threatened" and immediately felt uncomfortable. Either she didn't want to buy new clothes, or the clothes were so expensive. She had already spent the bonus she got from the competition in this summer camp.

She didn't want adults to spend another penny for her summer camp, and it would end up as if she was ignorant.

Unexpectedly, Sang Ping glared at Lao Che, "What are you talking about? Buying things is buying things, making things is making things. We are buying them today. I also want to buy a skirt. Don't you also want to buy a pair of shoes?"

There is no need to cooperate, just get emotional, "I want to buy it, but you keep switching to children's clothes and I feel lonely."

Buying a lonely person, Nail's plot is indeed quite vulgar, but at this time, coupled with his expression, there is indeed a bit of humor mixed with pity.

Sang Ping was amused by the nails.

Xiao Che was also amused, and she thought so. The whole family had been surrounding her since she came out in the morning. She knew that Ding Ding wanted to buy shoes. In the past few days, Ding Ding had been saying that he wanted to buy a pair of sneakers.

But she didn't know that Aunt Sang also wanted to buy a dress.

In her impression, Aunt Sang always seemed to be wearing the same number of clothes in turn. There was a red floral skirt that was almost washed out pink.

Sang Ping: "Come on, let's go play with Nailie's shoes first."

"I'm really touched." Nailie played with the little feet in his arms, "Zhizhi, uncle will buy you a pair too."

Xiaoche immediately corrected him: "You are his brother!"

The whole family laughs.

Lao Che: "Okay, okay, let's each fill in something today. I also want to buy a pair of shoes. Let's go. The boss lady will pay for all the purchases today."

Sang Ping: "Okay, I'll treat you to dinner too, but you have to pay for my dress."

Car: "Ah? Isn't it open today?"

The old car was originally going to be driven, "Why, can't we take a vacation?"

Xiaoche: "I told you to close the shop for a day."

Lao Che: “Isn’t it time to rest?”

Xiaoche: "You just said it, you didn't say it when you went out."

Sang Ping: "I will bear witness."

Lao Che was puzzled: "What's the difference?"

Xiaoche: "Yes! Aunt Sang said you had to have a rest today because she said we were going to eat out at night."

At this moment, Nailiao said: "No, how come you can't walk as soon as you show me your shoes?"

"Talking as we walk," Sang Ping said, reaching out and gently pulling up the car. The hand that the car subconsciously wanted to pull out finally failed to do so.

He just shook his arms slightly, drew a small arc with his feet, and moved half of his body to the right.

There is a cartoon bear printed on the schoolbag, but the bear’s eyes are a bit special, I don’t know what they are.
This was the second time in Che Lin's memory that Aunt Sang held her hand. The last time was in the hospital. She broke her head on the stage that day, and her hand was held by Aunt Sang when she woke up.

Unlike last time, she was very awake at this moment, and she could clearly feel that the palm of the other person's hand was rough, just like her father, as rough, but as warm.

It seems that the mother and daughter were walking forward half-way apart. Sang Ping was still wearing the red skirt that was about to be washed pink, and the car was also carrying a small red schoolbag that was about to be painted pink.

There is a cartoon bear printed on the schoolbag, but the bear's eyes are a bit special, one big and one small.

Dingzhi followed the two of them and looked at the little bear on the schoolbag. He couldn't remember what grade Che Lin was in. One day he came back crying and said that the schoolbag was broken. When he asked, it turned out that the bear's eyeball had fallen out.

So he buttoned a button from his chef's coat and sewed a big eye on the bear.

When the five members of the family arrived at the escalator, Sang Ping did not let go, so the car could only get closer.

After getting closer, she smelled a familiar smell on Sang Ping's body for the first time. She could no longer remember her mother's smell. She only remembered that she grew up in this faint smell of oil smoke.

She didn't like this annoying smell when she was a child, and to be honest, she doesn't like it too much now.

But when she smelled it again, there was still a smell on Sang Ping. She couldn't tell what it was. It didn't exist on her father or Ding Ding. It wasn't a scent, but she couldn't help but want to get closer.

Unconsciously, when they got off the elevator, the gap between the two people who seemed to be mother and daughter became a little smaller.

Lao Che was walking on the other side of the car, holding two half-empty cups of milk tea in his hands.

Nail, with Zhizhi hanging on his chest, walked unruly at the front.

Unconsciously, the family looked more like a family from a distance.

When passing by a women's clothing store, Xiao Che noticed a mannequin in front of the window. The mannequin was wearing a black floral skirt, and she liked it a little.

She thought Aunt Sang must look good in her clothes.
-
As the five members of the Lao Che family began their actual purchasing trip, Ji Yang also met Xiao Wu smoothly.

Wang Xiaohu was being scolded by the coach in the swimming pool, and Xiaomi had just walked into the gate of the Poly Theater.

Our teacher Li was playing a sentence he had just drawn in classroom 802. At this moment, the mobile phone on the piano board rang.

When I picked it up, I saw it was an unfamiliar number, but the tail number 5555 gave people an unusual feeling.

Five seconds later, Li An answered the phone.

"Hello," he said.

A clean greeting came from the phone, "Excuse me, Teacher Li, this is Xiang Nan."

Ang Lee: "Hello, manager."

Xiang Nan, Rongai's manager, has to give his approval whether salary payment or personnel changes are made.

So why did Xiang Nan call himself?
Five minutes later, Li An hung up the phone and started packing his things. On the way to the Chengdu Philharmonic, he called Qin Yong.

He was a little confused about this.

But it always feels like a good thing.
