Tech Dominator Starts with Raising Kids
Chapter 460: Brother, Are You Asleep?
Zhou Yaling, who was playing a little game with the little kid, turned her head over, with laughter and chatted, looked over.
Zhou Yaling pouted and said, "Learning to drive? Bro, are you serious?"
"Aren’t you going to work anymore?"
Mo Jingchun shook his head and mocked, "Who told you not to learn when you had time at school? I don’t believe your classmates didn’t tell you that you basically have no time to learn to drive after graduation."
"Besides, you don’t work on Saturdays and Sundays, if you really want to learn to drive, there’s still some time."
The greenery outside the car window was quickly receding, but unfortunately, it wasn’t between April and May. Otherwise, the azaleas along the way would be the most beautiful scenery on the way home from the county, and occasionally, one could even smell the faint fragrance of orchids.
In that season, what children liked most was scouring the hills for blooming orchids.
Sitting on Candy’s left side, Zhou Yaling hesitated before starting to speak: "Let’s wait a bit longer. Once I’m less busy, it won’t be too late to go and learn driving."
Zhou Yaling had her own considerations. Her older brother was the boss of Candy Technology, and she, as his sister, wouldn’t get into much trouble if she was lacking in her work. Her brother would at most tease her a little.
Family is family, and besides, even though her brother often enjoys teasing her, she knows that he has a soft heart under a sharp tongue.
Otherwise, why would she have taken so few detours and reached her current job position so easily?
But all her actions are observed by others, especially since she works in the company’s core management— the executive office.
She didn’t want people to gossip about her.
"Anyway, I can’t afford a car now."
Zhou Yaling pursed her lips, "Do you believe that before I get married, it’s almost unrealistic to want to buy a car."
Mo Jingchun smacked his head; it made sense, this argument was very reasonable.
Considering their uncle’s ideas, if a car was to be bought, it would be as a dowry.
At that time, the car would be bought, and the family’s face would be saved.
Just then, the little one pouted and snorted.
"What’s the point of buying a car? It would be better to buy a rocking horse to take home."
That remark made Mo Jingchun laugh immediately.
"If you want a rocking horse, just say so directly, why are you being so indirect?"
Hmm? What did this mean, brother? Could it be... brother is going to get her a rocking horse?
Candy, whose eyes lit up, stretched her neck excitedly and looked at her brother, asking:
"Brother, are you going to get Guoguo a rocking horse?"
Mo Jingchun spread his hands, "Did I ever say that?"
"Did I forget because of my bad memory?"
"Hmph." The little one pouted, she knew it, brother likes to trick little kids.
Shame, shame, shame~
"Brother, where is my New Year’s money? Use it to buy Guoguo a rocking horse."
Instantly, Mo Jingchun sat upright, tidied his clothes, and said.
"We agreed that I would save your New Year’s money, and when you go to college, I would give it all back to you, principal plus interest."
The little one looked at her brother skeptically.
Xia Xiaomin on the side burst into laughter.
She believed that her brother would definitely give it back when the time comes, but ten years later, would the same hundred yuan be worth the same?
Looking back over the past decade or so, the difference isn’t minor.
"Brother, look, sister is laughing."
In the summer sunset, Mo Jingchun stood at the door, rummaging through his bag for the key.
Behind Mo Jingchun, Candy clicked her tongue, "Brother, didn’t you bring the key?"
"How could that be possible."
"See, I found it." Mo Jingchun waved a bunch of keys in his hand.
The keys were of various sizes, most of them rusty.
As the front door opened, the little one who ran inside exclaimed and just stood there with her eyes shut, waving her small hands randomly in the air.
"How come there are spider webs."
Mo Jingchun reached out and helped remove the webs, saying a bit sadly, "When no one is at home, it’s bound to be like this."
A few years ago, Uncle and his family were home often and would come to clean regularly, every time they returned, the house was quite clean.
But this year, Uncle’s family was also in the county fighting for the new company, so naturally, no one comes by to clean anymore.
With just a quick glance, there were many leaves on the ground, and the table was covered with a layer of dust.
Having suffered a minor setback, the little one retreated backward by herself.
Without restraint, the first time back to her old home, Little Grey was like an untethered horse, happily running around the house.
"Let’s get started, let’s start with the kitchen, otherwise we don’t know when we’ll be able to have dinner tonight."
Everyone exchanged looks and began to take action.
Many hands make light work, the wisdom of the ancients was not misleading.
A three-story building, plus a kitchen, with an area of over three hundred square meters, was cleaned spotlessly by a dozen people in less than an hour.
The only downside was the quilts in the cabinet hadn’t been aired out for a long time, emitting an indescribable odor.
"Brother, sister said a lot of people would be coming tomorrow, is that fake?"
Pitiful Mo Jingchun, who had to sleep on the floor, didn’t even want to open his eyes.
"Don’t know, stop gossiping with your sister, it’s late, go to sleep."
In the dark, Candy, lying on the bed, pulled the quilt closer and snuggled into her sister’s armpit.
"Sister, if we don’t sleep, brother will probably get mad."
"Then let’s sleep quickly."
A few minutes later, the little one poked her head out of the quilt again, looking towards brother on the floor through the moonlight.
"Brother, are you asleep yet?"
For a long time, only Bun’s snoring could be heard in the room.
The little one waited for ages but didn’t hear a response from her brother.
Actually, Mo Jingchun hadn’t fallen asleep yet, he just didn’t respond.
It was better not to respond, if he did, Mo Jingchun could predict that Candy would keep asking questions endlessly.
In the morning, hearing the alarm ring, Zhou Yaling rubbed her eyes and took a leg off her chest.
Zhou Yaling learned why her brother would want to sleep separately from Candy.
One reason was that Candy had grown up, and the other obvious reason was because of Candy’s bad sleeping habits.
When Candy sleeps, her postures are all strange, but at least there’ll always be a hand on your chest.
Her brother didn’t know when he got up, the floor mat was already tidied up.
Zhou Yaling gently patted the small, curled-up Little Candy.
"Wake up."
The little one changed to a different sleeping posture and continued sleeping, not responding to Zhou Yaling.
No need to doubt, most likely she hadn’t woken up properly yet.
"Come on, wake up."
"Your brother is making something delicious."
Still no reaction? Zhou Yaling picked up her phone and silently opened an app on it.
"TIMI~"
"Hmm? Is it on?" The little one groggily sat up, her head swaying left and right, looking for the source of the sound.
"Stop looking, get up quickly."
"People will arrive in a little while."
With some morning grumpiness, Candy pouted, feeling a bit unhappy.
She hadn’t even slept well yet.
PS: Uncomfortable, ate my wife’s dark cooking, my stomach is killing me.
