Ornaments actually not too big change in room, because there is a reason of kid, the scattered in disorder picture alb.u.m and toy make this home appear somewhat disorderly in all directions.

Aunt Zhang cannot get used to seeing in Chen Xi that la the sloppy appearance, just pa.s.sing through the gate made him take a bath to change the clothes first.

The clothes are he five years ago stays behind, has not thought that now puts on is also but actually good-fitting.

Taking a bath water bath after carelessly, sitting that Chen Xi sits respectfully by sofa, wooden looks that Aunt Zhang is teasing the child.

These year of children are raise by Aunt Zhang, therefore the kid is very chatty she, this also makes nearby Chen Xi covet, hopes the child also to his such being intimate with.

"Come, Niannian, told father you to name.”

The little girls blinked, in bright and intelligent big eye full is the question, as if not understand why Aunt Zhang will ask such question, rhetorical question that therefore then speaks in an infantile tone of voice:

"Isn't the Niannian name Papa obtains?”

"Is mother obtains, therefore father does not know. The mother said that wants you to tell father personally, look, the father came back, you said your name to the father quickly.”

The little girl were crooked the head to think a while, then looks at Chen Xi saying fast:" I am called Chen Nian!”

After saying, kid then sneaked in Aunt Zhang the bosom, seems somewhat embarra.s.sed.

Aunt Zhang touches the small head of Chen Nian, looks at Chen Xi helpless saying: "Silly child quarrelled all day is wanting the father, now saw that the father has also been shy...”

"Was good, Niannian, paternal grandmother must go to prepare food to you, you to father there, making the father accompany your hobby?”

"Does not want, I must play with the paternal grandmother.”

Chen Nian shook the head, both hands grab Aunt Zhang not to ask her to leave.

"Clever, the words that the paternal grandmother does not prepare food, we did not have the food to eat in the evening, asking the father to accompany you to play.”

Aunt Zhang knows that at this time needs to the s.p.a.ce that father and daughter two are together alone, therefore held Chen Nian to arrive in front of Chen Xi directly, has placed on her Chen Xi's sofa.

The kids are very sensible, noticed that Aunt Zhang must prepare food, she also no longer quarrelled is wanting the paternal grandmother to accompany her to play.

After Aunt Zhang walks, the kid sits on the sofa, two small thin legs naturally dangle from the sofa are rocking gently, the bright and intelligent big eye stares is looking at Chen Xi, does not know that is thinking anything.

Chen Xi and her big eyes to the aperture, somewhat were scared suddenly.

He actually does not know how should face own daughter!

Can the father who own this braves suddenly, frighten her?

However, the idea of child is obviously different from the father.

Chen Nian looked at Chen Xi long time, suddenly has lain on the sofa, the hands and feet and with gruff crawling to Chen Xi in front, extended both hands on own initiative, saying of speaking in an infantile tone of voice: "Papa, hugs.”

Chen Xi leans the body to want Chen Nian to hug hastily, but actually feared own thick hand thick foot will make the pain child, therefore can only act stiffly extends the hand to the both arms of Chen Nian, attempt bit by bit is putting up Chen Nian.

At this time, Chen Nian actually all of a sudden threw to him on, held his neck to chortle: „Papa is quite silly!”

Holds in the arms bosom gently supply, if the small physique of characterless, Chen Xi also has to plant to live the feeling in dream.

The kids gather nearby Chen Xi the head, mumbled the mouth to ask:" Other child has Papa and Mama, I do not have, after Papa, do not walk good again?”

Chen Xi was shocked.

Looks at bosom both strange and familiar kid, his raised at heart a warm current.

Even if after 500 years of wind and rain, the entire heart were rock-solid, at this moment also changed to a crosstalk to refer to supply in the daughter hopeful look.

Therefore, Chen Xi could not bear on her forehead has kissed one, gentle and affirmative saying: "Father does not walk, does not walk, later Niannian where, father where!”

"Draws the hook hook!”

"Good!”

Chen Xi laughs is stretching out the finger, has set the agreement with the kid.

Afterward, the kid remembered anything to resemble to result in likely suddenly, jumped from Chen Xi knee speedily.

Chen Xi does not dare to block her, following on the heels that can only be careful, to guard her to throw down.

The kids fast run the living room, rushed to the master bedroom directly.

She now is only four years old, the height did not have the door k.n.o.b to be high, therefore opens the door, she can only lift up high both hands, hangs oneself on the door k.n.o.b, then loosens the both feet, pulls open the door k.n.o.b with the weight of body directly.

Chen Xi follows anxiously in her behind.

Entered the room to discover, the ornaments and five years of ago this room compared not the too big change.

As if hasn't moved?

The kids run up to the headstock, both hands hold picture frame on the headstock, then returns to front of Chen Xi the picture frame high lifts, as to make Chen Xi have a look.

Chen Xi bends down to hug the daughter, sits to the sides of the bed on, received the picture frame from her hand.

The kids point at the person on picture to say happily.

Possibly today is Chen Xi this whole life absent-minded most one day.

When he noticed that in the picture that walks arm in arm when his arms girl, as if only thought that all occurred yesterday.

This yesterday, regarding him was the entire 500 years.

But regarding her, is enough five years.

Five years, enough made a girl turn into the woman.

„Papa came back, when Mama come back?”

The kids are holding the picture frame, asking of some antic.i.p.ations.

The child is naive and sensitive, why she will be very actually clear others to laugh at her is an urchin.

The  grandmother said often that Papa Ma Ma has gone far, went to the very far place, therefore did not have the means to come back to visit her.

She, had waited for her Papa Ma Ma to come back, she can also like other child, there are Papa Ma Mapei to go to the zoo amus.e.m.e.nt park.

Now Papa came back, Ma should Ma also be about to come back?

"Was quick, quick...”

Chen Xi looks at daughter bright and intelligent big eyes, affirmative reply: "Niannian felt relieved that mother will come back quickly. If she does not come back, father leads you to ask her to come back, is good?”

"Um! ”

Kid numerous nods of, a face joyful sneaked in Chen Xi arms, then happy points at the picture frame to ask: „Papa, after Ma Ma comes back, can also put me?”

Chen Xi touches daughter that tender small cheek, very earnest reply:" Good, when we found mother, again takes a family photo, puts Niannian.”

"Grandmother!”

"Good, cannot be few.”

...

After leaving, two places hang.

Only the way is three in April, who knows for 5-6 years.

The seven string qin has no interest to shoot, the letter of eight lines cannot pa.s.s on,

The nine interlocking rings break off, ten li (0.5km) roadside shelter I await eagerly.

Hundred thought that thousand are reads, absolutely cannot be helped is resentful the court attendant.

The countless words said endlessly, is bored to death ten to rely on the fence.

Climbs to a high place on the double ninth festival to look at the orphaned wild goose, in August mid-autumn, the moon round person is not round.

Fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month, Bing Zhu burns incense to ask heaven,

In June the dog days of summer, everybody fans me to be fearful.

In May the garnet wins the fire, meets the intermittent icy rain watering flowers end.

In April loquat not yellow, I am more chaotic to the center.

Suddenly in a hurry, in March peach blossom along with water extension,

Faded and fallen zero, kite line breaks in February.

Hey, under the court attendant the court attendant, looks forward to first, you come me to be the male for the female.
