Chapter 574: Two Little Actors
Seeing her daughter working alone, Mother Xiao asked, “Where’s Tong ‘Er?”
Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “He’s playing inside the farming space!”
Mother Xiao was shocked and glared at her daughter. She scolded her harshly, “Xiao Lingyu, your heart is really big! Tong Tong is so young, yet you’re leaving him alone. What if he falls and bumps himself?”
Xiao Lingyu was speechless. “Mom, Ling ‘Er is there. Tong Tong will be fine.”
“...” Mother Xiao said, “How can you say that? Ling ‘Er is only three or four years old. Can he take care of Tong Tong?”
Xiao Lingyu immediately explained, “Mom, Ling ‘Er doesn’t look like it, but he’s very good. When I left, Tong Tong was clinging to him. He likes him very much. I trust Ling ‘Er. Tong Tong will be fine.”
Mother Xiao was still worried. “No, I’m still a little worried. You should go and take a look now.”
Xiao Lingyu saw her mom’s persistence and said helplessly, “Okay then. I’ll go and take a look now.”
When Xiao Lingyu returned to the space, she saw the two kids playing with each other.
Xiao Ling was holding Xiao Tong and playing helicopter with him, raising him high into the air.
Xiao Lingyu suddenly became nervous. She immediately asked, “Ling ‘Er, is there really no problem?”
When Xiao Ling saw Xiao Lingyu come in, he immediately said happily, “Master, there’s no problem. Little Master is not heavy at all to me.” At this point, he paused and immediately said, “Master, I haven’t had anyone to play with me for a long time. I’m very happy.”
Xiao Lingyu’s heart ached when she heard that.
Xiao Ling had been lonely for tens of thousands of years.
Xiao Lingyu patted his little head and nodded. “Well, as long as you’re happy.”
Xiao Ling’s eyes flashed, and he immediately asked, “Master, can you bring little master to play with me often in the future?” As he said this, he seemed to be afraid that his master would refuse. His tone became urgent, “Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of little master. I won’t let him get hurt.”
When Xiao Lingyu heard this, his expression froze for a moment. Then, she thought for a moment and said, “Alright, if Ling ‘Er likes Xiao Tong and Xiao Tong likes Ling ‘Er, I will bring Xiao Tong in to play with you every day, alright?”
When Xiao Ling heard this, he was instantly overjoyed. He smiled and said, “Master, Little Master definitely likes me, right, Little Master?”
Xiao Tong immediately giggled. Then, he reached out and grabbed Xiao Ling’s arm. He stood up and kissed Xiao Ling’s cheek.
Xiao Lingyu, “...”
Xiao Ling,”...” the little master actually kissed him. He was a little shy.
Xiao Lingyu took the child from Xiao Ling’s hands and said with a smile, “It looks like Tong Tong really likes his Brother Ling ‘Er!”
Xiao Tong had a big smile on his face. Then, he began to babble some incomprehensible “Baby language”. However, the word Brother Ling was very clear.
Xiao Lingyu held Xiao Tong. Then, she tapped his little nose and said with a smile, “It seems that you really like Brother Ling ‘Er.”
Little Tong was so happy in Xiao Lingyu’s hands that he almost jumped up. His two little hands kept clapping, and he was very excited.
Xiao Ling took the opportunity to say, “Master, does this mean you’ll agree to let Little Master come into the space to play with me more often in the future?” Things were moving smoothly.
But Xiao Lingyu shook her head and said, “I’m sorry. No.”
Xiao Ling was dumbfounded!
Xiao Tong also stopped clapping. They didn’t expect this.
Xiao Ling asked in confusion, “No, master, what exactly is the reason? Are you afraid that I won’t be able to take good care of Little Master? Don’t worry. I will definitely look after little master.”
Xiao Lingyu shook her head, then squatted down and said seriously to Xiao Ling, “No. It’s mainly because Xiao Tong’s grandmother is very worried.”
“Huh?” Xiao Ling was stunned.
Xiao Tong was shocked too.
The two kids had been discussing inside the farming space how to persuade Xiao Lingyu to leave Xiao Tong inside the space. They never thought the real obstacle would be Mother Xiao.
The two kids communicated with a gaze.
Xiao Lingyu continued, “Xiao Tong’s grandma is worried that he might bump into things inside the space...”
Before Xiao Lingyu could finish, Xiao Ling lowered her head and said sadly, “Master, is grandma worried that I will harm Little Master?
“But... I just want Little Master to play with me.
“Only Master, Grandpa, Grandma, and Little Master can come into this space. However, master, Grandpa, and Grandma are always busy. Only Little Master is free to accompany me.
“If Little Master is not even allowed to stay... I...” Xiao Ling looked at Xiao Lingyu with a pitiful expression. His eyes were red, and his voice was a little forced as he said, “I just want to find someone to play with me...”
Xiao Tong seemed to be affected by Xiao Ling’s low mood. He stretched out his hands and wanted to hug Xiao Ling. Xiao Ling also moved to hug Xiao Tong. Xiao Tong patted Xiao Ling’s chest. He mumbled as if comforting Xiao Ling.
Xiao Lingyu looked at them. “It looks like Xiao Tong really like Ling ‘Er, and Ling ‘Er really likes Xiao Tong. How about this? I’ll bring Grandma in here with me. It shouldn’t be too hard to convince her.”
Xiao Ling’s eyes immediately lit up. He nodded and said, “Okay, okay!”
Mother Xiao was waiting outside. When she saw Xiao Lingyu come out alone, she immediately asked in puzzlement, “Where’s Xiao Tong?”
Xiao Lingyu said, “Mom, I’ll bring you to take a look!”
As soon as Mother Xiao entered the space, she saw Xiao Ling carrying Xiao Tong. His eyes were still a little red, and Xiao Tong looked sad too. Mother Xiao was concerned. “Ling ‘Er, what’s wrong? Why are you crying? And the baby, why do you look so sad? Did someone bully you?” Then, Mother Xiao’s gaze moved towards Xiao Lingyu. Clearly, she was suspecting her daughter.
Xiao Ling shook his head, and then his eyes turned red. He looked at Mother Xiao with a very serious expression and said with a pleading tone, “Grandma, I’m too lonely in the space alone. I want little master to stay to play with me. Is that okay?”
Xiao Lingyu, “...”
Before Xiao Lingyu could react, Xiao Ling immediately promised, “Grandma, don’t worry. I’ll take good care of little master. I won’t let him fall or get injured. Please let little master stay here and play with me, okay?”
Mother Xiao said, “Ling ‘Er, this...”
She was worried that Xiao Ling was too young to take good care of Xiao Tong.
Xiao Lingyu sighed softly and said, “Mom, Ling ‘Er has been lonely for too long. We don’t have time to come and accompany him, but Xiao Tong can play with him. Plus, Xiao Tong likes Ling ‘Er very much. See. He hasn’t even taken his hands off Ling ‘Er since I brought him here.”
Mother Xiao looked at the two pairs of sparkling eyes that were filled with anticipation. In the end, she sighed. She nodded and said, “Alright. When Xiao Tong is free, he can come to play with Brother Ling ‘Er, okay?”
Xiao Tong seemed to understand it and immediately jumped up. His tender voice was very clear as he replied, “Okay!”
Mother Xiao was slightly stunned at first, then she smiled in surprise and said, “You child. Your first clear word was because you were allowed to play with Brother Ling ‘Er.”
Of course, Mother Xiao had no idea that Xiao Tong really knew how to speak. That was a slip of the tongue by Xiao Tong.
“This is wonderful!” Xiao Ling said happily, “Thank you, Grandma!”
At this time, Mother Xiao reminded her seriously, “Ling ‘Er, Tong ‘Er is still young. You have to put in more effort to take care of him. If the child is thirsty or hungry,you must tell your master.”
Xiao Ling nodded and replied, “Yes, yes, I will.”
...
When Mother Xiao and Xiao Lingyu went out, the two children wiped the cold sweat on their foreheads.
Xiao Ling said, “That was so close. It scared me to death.”
Xiao Tong gave Xiao Ling a thumbs up and said, “Your acting skills are really good!” His tears came at the right time.
Xiao Ling, “...” Who am I doing all these for?
