House Dad's Literary Life Chapter 143

Chapter 143

I’m so happy these days!

There’s Papa and Mama, and the three newly arrived little friends at home .  Xixi felt like that her heart was soaked in honey every day, always sweet!

Before the three kittens came, what Xixi looked forward to most every day was to wait for her father to tell her the story of the monkey at night, and it would be the best if he played with the golden cudgel for a while!1

By the way, after listening to Sun WuKong’s story, Xixi asked her father curiously one morning: “Papa, why can’t Xixi learn how to use the golden cudgel like Sun WuKong?”

Yang Yi answered her like this: “Sticks are only for boys to play . It lacks sophistication or delicacy! The swordsmans.h.i.+p that Xixi is learning is for girls . Your father named it jade girl swordsmans.h.i.+p . I learned it from a master named Xiaolongnu . After Xixi learned it, it’ll looks better than a golden cudgel! Gentle and agile, elegant and graceful, just like a little fairy!”

“So Xixi, are you going to be a fairy or a monkey?”

“I want to be a fairy!” Xixi chose the former without hesitation . After the three kittens came, the appeal of her father’s story seemed to have dropped a lot . Although Xixi still wanted to hear a story from her father before going to bed, she would not pester her father to tell a story . Instead, she would go to the kittens whenever she had a chance .

“Xiao Guai, you have to grab it this time!” Xixi whispered, lowering her voice as if she only wanted her Xiao Guai to hear her . 2

She raised the cat stick high . It was too high for the kittens to reach, so they could only look up with their heads up . The biggest, Xiao Hui, also tried to stand on his hind feet and catch it with his front feet . Of course, he couldn’t reach it . The kitten’s limbs weren’t strong enough, so he gave up and crouched with the other kittens .

“One, two, three…” Xixi’s voice was crisp, as if the kittens could understand . After counting up to three, she dropped the cat stick that was swaying from side to side .

She threw the whole cat stick on the floor… Although Xixi was used to the kittens and was getting along with them, the little girl was still a little timid by the sight of their sharp teeth .

Still, Xiao Hui has the fastest reaction . He was the first to pounce and attack with his claws . He threw the mouse-shaped cloth bag on the ground, and then open his small mouth to try to gnaw it .

Duoduo moved a bit slower, but with her physical advantage, she jumped and took her place, right next to Xiao Hui, gnawing at the furry feathers with her sharp teeth .

Xiao Guai was the slowest . He couldn’t grab it, and he couldn’t squeeze in between his “cat brother” and “cat sister” . So, he had to turn around anxiously, and finally chose to swipe the long plastic stick with his little paws .

However, it was obvious that the plastic stick was not as attractive as the feathers and the small cloth bag . Xiao Guai didn’t even open his mouth . The kind little girl was worried that her Xiao Guia would be depressed . She reached out to hug the kitten, scratched the hair behind his ear and comforted, “It’s okay, Little Guai, it doesn’t matter!”

However, Xiao Guai didn’t appreciate it . He struggled in Xixi’s arms and meowed twice .

“Do you want to try again? Then you need to make an extra effort!” Xixi finally s.n.a.t.c.hed back the cat stick from the mouths of Xiao Hui and Duoduo . The process was no different from that of a tug of war .

Although the kittens were weak and delicate, they still have some bite force .

“Let’s play again!” Xixi, just like playing house, reached out and patted each kitten’s head and said, as if they could understand her .

“Xixi is about to start!” The little girl gently waved the cat stick and kindly “reminded” the kittens .

The kittens looked eagerly at the cat stick . Even Xiao Guai was also restlessly pacing his paws, ready to go .

If they could talk, they would tell Xixi: “Stop delaying and start already!”

Once again, Xixi dropped the cat stick, but this time, the position where it was dropped was obviously biased! Without any effort, Xiao Guai turned around and jumped on the small cloth bag, but he was more interested in the feathers . He held the small cloth bag in his two front paws and gnawed the feathers in his mouth .

“Yay, Xiao Guai won!” Xixi clapped her hands happily . She happily hugged Xiao Guai again and rubbed her face lovingly against the cat’s forehead: “My Xiao Guai is the best!”

“Xiao Hui and Duodup are great, too!” Xixi was also worried that the other two kittens were unhappy and gave them a thumbs-up .

However, where could Xiao Hui and Duodou find the time to respond to Xixi at this time? They found that the “treasure” s.n.a.t.c.hed by Xiao Guai was unexpectedly up for grabs again, and they couldn’t wait to jump on it . The two kittens were competing for it!

Xiao Guai was the most miserable . He finally s.n.a.t.c.hed the toy from the two bigger kittens, but before he had fun with it, he was picked up by his little master! The kitten could only aggrievedly meow .

However, at this moment, Xixi suddenly heard her mother cried out in a sobbing tone: “Yang Yi, you b*stard!”

The little girl blinked her big confused eyes . And just she turned her head, she saw her mother running past her, wiping tears from the corners of her eyes .

Mo Fei ran into the master bedroom and slammed the door with a “bang” .

Yang Yi, who had been eagerly discussing kindergarten with Mo Fei on the sofa, stood up, but finally sat back with a frown .

Although Xixi was still young, she was still aware that there was something wrong between her father and mother . She hurriedly hugged Xiao Guai and walked to her father’s side .

Xiao Guai’s helpless and entangled meow brought Yang Yi back to his sense . He looked at his daughter, that had some timidity, in from of him, and his eyes gradually became gentle .

“Don’t worry, you play with Xiao Guai!” Yang Yi reached over, rubbed his daughter’s head and said gently .

“Papa, why is Mama crying?” Xixi noticed that her father’s mood had calmed down again, so she was not so nervous . She snuggled up to her father and asked .

Yang Yi was silent for a while, but still said vaguely, “Because… Because there are some problems that your father and your mother need to talk about clearly… Maybe, maybe there’s a little misunderstanding?”

Xiao Guai struggled impatiently, so Xixi had to put him on the ground and let him play with his brother and sister .

She couldn’t be bothered to play with Xiao Guai! Xixi’s little head was turning hard3 . She was trying hard to understand the sudden quarrel in her own way . The little girl always thought that Papa had the best temper . Papa had never been fierce at Xixi, but Mama would…

It must be that Mama did something bad, making Papa angry!

But Xixi really didn’t want her parents to quarrel, because they had quarreled before, and the quarrel was terrible, and then her mother didn’t want to talk to her father . Xixi was very afraid . She didn’t want to go back to her original state . Xixi didn’t want her parents to live apart, and could only see one of them forever…

That’s not happy at all!

The little girl held her father’s hand and said in a pleading tone, “Papa, don’t be angry with Mama, okay? Mama is as good as Xixi, and she will be good in the future!”
