Chapter 35.3
In the afternoon, Si Tian went to pick up the two children from school on time.
Kindergarten ended on time and there was no accident today. Si Tian saw Ji Zhile at a glance, carrying a schoolbag and a pocket in his hand, looking very excited.
Si Tian did not know what it was until she received it from someone.
Ji Zhile shook it in her hand: “Mom, look at my snack gift box!”
He was so excited that he took the gift box out of the bag when he got into the car, put it in his hand, and looked at it over and over again.
Si Tian could not help but take a few glances. The kindergarten prizes were indeed exquisitely made. The gift boxes were wrapped in beautiful colored paper and tied with bows on the outside, which attracted the children’s attention very much.
Ji Zhile turned his head to look at her and met her gaze. He held up the gift box and asked, “Does Mom like it?”
Si Tian nodded very face-savingly: “I like it.”
Ji Zhile smiled, stuffed the gift box into her arms, then turned around, and played with his fingers, as if a little embarrassed.
Si Tian was taken aback for a moment and then asked cautiously, “Show me?”
She did not forget the last time Ji Zhile stuffed the teddy bear into her arms and let her hold it for a while.
“No, it’s for you.”
Si Tian held the box in her hand. Just now Ji Zhile looked over and over again, so there was still the warmth of a child’s palm on it.
“Give it to me?”
She could tell that Ji Zhile liked it very much. He had argued with others at school yesterday because of this gift box and he could not put it down after holding it today. Si Tian knew that children would want to keep things they like even more.
Therefore, Si Tian was a little confused by Ji Zhile’s words.
Ji Zhile nodded: “Here you are!”
Si Tian held it in her hand, hesitated for a moment, and asked, “But aren’t you going to give the Otto Egg inside to your brother?”
Ji Zhile nodded: “There are two Otto Eggs. One for Mom and one for Brother, and my brother’s is in my schoolbag.”
“But Teacher Wang said that this is the last gift box of snacks, you will lose it if you give it to me. You have to save stickers twice before you can exchange them.” For Ji Zhile, this is a very precious gift box, so give it to her like this, making Si Tian a little overwhelmed.
Ji Zhile nodded, looked at her appearance, and suddenly asked: “Doesn’t Mom like it?”
He lowered his voice and continued to play with his fingers, not as shy as he was just now, but now he was nervous.
“I like it, I like it very much!” Si Tian said immediately, “It’s just too precious, Mom is a little…”
Ji Zhile understood and continued, “Mom is so happy, so can’t believe it, right?”
This Ji Zhile has experience. When his mother said that she took him to make handmade lanterns, Ji Zhile could not believe it.
Si Tian nodded.
Ji Zhile leaned over, hugged her arm, and patted her hands: “It’s true, I didn’t give it to the other children, but I want to give it to Mom and Brother.”
Suddenly, he thought of something and asked a little bit tangled: “Can Mom share one of the chocolates inside with Dad?”
“It’s so pitiful that Dad doesn’t have any of them.”
Si Tian said, “I will.”
After receiving Ji Ningyi, Ji Zhile gave him the Otto Egg and asked him with a wink, “Does Brother like this Otto Egg?”
Ji Ningyi looked at the snacks in his hand and nodded: “I like it, thank you, Zhile.”
The corners of Ji Zhile’s mouth curled up: “You’re welcome.”
Then, he turned his head to look at Si Tian, his eyes were very bright: “Mom, do you also want to see Otto eggs? Quickly open the gift box and take a look!”
Si Tian looked at Ji Zhile’s look full of anticipation and thought to herself that it was you who wanted to see it. She thought it was funny, Ji Zhile was very arrogant.
Si Tian untied the bowknot to reveal the true colors of the box and then lifted the lid.
Ji Zhile immediately let out a ‘wow’ sound.
There are many snacks in the gift box, including an Otto Egg, chocolate, lollipops, biscuits…
Ji Zhile swallowed his saliva and asked her, “Does Mom like it?”
“Like.”
Ji Zhile was very happy: “Brother likes it, Mother likes it, everyone likes it very much!”
Ji Ningyi did not speak. He quietly clenched the snacks in his hand. His heart was a little astringent, Zhile gave his mother a gift, and he seemed to have nothing to give to his mother.
