Withered Broken Ice Blue

Chapter 432: Shen Die Now

The guest room was carefully cleaned, with a spotless floor, neatly made beds, and sunlight streaming into the room through the windows.

Chi Feiwan dragged the suitcase to the guest room with great effort, put it down gently, then returned to his own bedroom and cleaned that room carefully as well.

She looked at the tidy room and breathed a sigh of relief.

Chi Feiwan placed the New Year's red envelopes neatly on the bedside table and pressed them down with an exquisite water cup, fearing that the red envelopes would be blown away by the wind.

She turned to look at Xiao Lizi and said with a smile: "This is the red envelope your aunt gave you. Take it and go out to play tomorrow."

Little Lizi has put on cute pajamas. The pink pajamas have bunny patterns printed on them. She also wears a bunny ear headband, making her look very adorable.

Her eyes sparkled like stars, and she asked expectantly, "Where are we going to play?"

"Your second uncle will take you there. Xiaolizi, go to bed early so that you will have more energy to play tomorrow." Chi Feiwan touched Xiaolizi's head gently, his eyes full of pampering.

"Will you and your brother go?" Xiao Lizi raised her head and looked at Chi Feiwan eagerly with a hint of longing in her eyes.

Chi Feiwan shook his head, a trace of helplessness on his face: "No, mom and brother are going to your grandmother's place tomorrow."

"Why don't you take me with you?" Xiao Lizi's eyes turned red instantly, her voice was a little aggrieved, and her lips trembled slightly.

Chi Feiwan immediately soothed her softly. She squatted down, looked at Xiao Lizi at eye level, and hugged her gently: "Xiao Lizi, grandma's place is a little special. Mom has her reasons for making such arrangements. I hope you can understand Mom."

Chi Feiwan felt a little bitter in her heart. She didn't know how to explain to Xiao Lizi her grandmother's preference for boys over girls. She didn't want Xiao Lizi to feel this unfairness at such a young age.

Xiao Lizi nodded obediently. Although there was still disappointment in her eyes, she still tried to force a smile: "Okay, Mom, I will be good."

Chi Feiwan looked at the sensible little Lizi and felt distressed.

She knew that Xiao Lizi was full of curiosity about her grandmother. After all, most of the relatives she had never met had a strong filter in her mind.

Chi Feiwan thought, wait until Xiao Lizi grows up a little, then find a suitable time to tell her about her grandmother.

At night, Chi Feiwan lay in bed, tossing and turning thinking about tomorrow's arrangements.

She was worried that Xiao Lizi would be unhappy because she couldn't go to her grandmother's house, and she was also worried that her younger brother would be negatively influenced at her grandmother's house.

She sighed softly, hoping that everything would go well tomorrow.

The next morning, the sun was shining brightly. Chi Feiwan got up early and prepared breakfast for Xiaolizi and her brother.

Although Xiao Lizi felt a little disappointed, she still ate her breakfast obediently.

Chi Feiwan looked at Xiao Lizi and felt a little guilty.

She said to Little Pear, "Little Pear, when you come back from playing outside, Mommy will bring you something delicious."

Xiao Lizi nodded and smiled happily.

Chi Feiwan took her younger brother out to visit her grandmother. Along the way, she felt a little heavy-hearted.

When they arrived at my grandmother's house, my grandmother smiled when she saw my younger brother, but was a little cold to Chi Feiwan.

Chi Feiwan felt helpless, but he had already gotten used to it.

The reason why Chi Feiwan brought Jiang Jiaxu was not because he wanted to compete for something, but because he brought Xiao Lizi. He was more worried that she would not be able to accept the gap in her heart and did not want to affect her as a five-year-old child.

Chi Feiwan would not let Xiao Lizi see her grandmother. She knew very well what such thoughts would do to a little girl.

Emily looked at the cute child Jiang Jiaxu and couldn't help but praise: "This child is so cute!"

Although Jiang Jiaxu is a little shy, as a child, he has the innocence and liveliness that all children should have.

Despite his young age, he has demonstrated a maturity and stability beyond his years.

"It would be great if he could inherit his mother's blue eyes." Emily said this casually, but it aroused Chi Feiwan's vigilance.

Everyone hopes that Chi Feiwan's children can have a pair of blue eyes because it is a symbol of beauty.

But only Chi Feiwan herself knows that she hopes her child can become an ordinary person.

Blue eyes are beautiful, but are they really the best choice? For Chi Feiwan, these blue eyes did not bring blessings, but endless disasters.

Even without those blue eyes, Chi Feiwan is still a stunningly beautiful woman.

However, it was precisely because of these blue eyes that she attracted the pursuit of countless young men.

Even the double has similar iconic features to hers.

Genes are really a kind of metaphysics. It is difficult to explain, and as a parent, you have no choice.

But fortunately, neither Jiang Muli nor Jiang Jiaxu inherited her blue eyes.

Chi Feiwan said nearby: "He's handsome even if he has blue eyes. I don't have any requirements for my son's appearance."

Even if positive equals negative, so what.

Emily smiled and stroked Jiang Jiaxu's hair, with a hint of regret in her eyes. She turned to Chi Feiwan and said, "This child really looks like his father. It would be even more perfect if he had a pair of blue eyes."

It is easy to tell who Jiang Jiaxu looks like. He looks more like Chi Feiwan, but Emily said that on purpose.

Emily did it on purpose. Even though Jiang Jiaxu and Chi Feiwan looked exactly like each other, she was unwilling to admit that Jiang Jiaxu and Chi Feiwan looked alike.

Chi Feiwan felt a sharp pain in her heart. She hugged Jiang Jiaxu tightly and said firmly: "He is himself. He doesn't need to be like anyone else."

At this time, Jiang Jiaxu raised his head, looked at Chi Feiwan, and said in a childish voice: "Mom, I don't want blue eyes, I just want to be like you."

Chi Feiwan was so moved that her eyes became moist. She hugged Jiang Jiaxu tightly and said, "Okay."

At night, with Jiang Jiaxu around, Chi Feiwan's living environment became better.

Although it is a guest room, it is much better than the attic where I lived when I came to the Shen family as a child.

Shen Die is one year younger than Chi Feiwan and has lived in a family environment full of prejudice and discrimination since childhood.

She longed to escape from this home, so she chose to marry far away. However, even though she had left her hometown, she could not get rid of the shadow of her family.

Every Chinese New Year, Shen Die never returned home, which made Mr. Shen very dissatisfied.

He believed that as a member of the Shen family, Shen Die should fulfill her responsibility to respect her parents and return home to reunite with her family.

But in fact, Shen Die was already extremely disappointed with this family and didn't want to go back and face those who had hurt her.

Mr. Shen has a serious patriarchal mentality and always considers his son much more important than his daughter.

Therefore, when Shen Die didn't come back for the New Year, he began to complain: "She has no filial piety at all. Now that she has married abroad, can she forget her roots and not come home to visit?"

At this time, Chi Feiwan was busy in the kitchen, preparing tonight's meal. Since the kitchen was open-plan, she could clearly hear Mr. Shen's conversation.

Chi Feiwan sighed silently, feeling sorry for Shen Die.
