"My eyes are almost closed and I still don't want to go to sleep."
Father Xiao couldn't help but shook his head when he thought about the scene at that time, "The old man is old and can't stay up late."
"This is the last day they have slept in the past few years."
"I didn't get back to the house until almost twelve o'clock."
"It's better that we talk hard and coax them back."
"Your grandparents are really stubborn when they are stubborn."
Father Xiao smiled helplessly.
Seeing Xiao Xiao's somewhat apologetic expression, Father Xiao said, "Just say more nice things to your grandparents tomorrow."
"Grandpa and grandma will be very happy."
"Um."
Xiao Xiao nodded.
…
"Uncle, I'm sorry, it's me who has troubled Master Xiao."
"As a result, Master Xiao didn't have time to come back to celebrate the New Year with you."
Su Xun's face was full of apologies.
Especially when he heard that the old people in Master Xiao's family had been waiting for Master Xiao to come home, he felt even more guilty.
…
Master Xiao?
Father Xiao was stunned for a moment.
But then he remembered the white plum blossoms that were always blooming in the yard and the invisible fish in the pond, and he gained some clarity.
He smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay."
"Su Xun, right?"
"Well, uncle, just call me Ah Xun."
Even though he is in the dust, Su Xun's good demeanor is clearly revealed.
Father Xiao's eyes showed some appreciation.
Such young people are always more popular with their elders.
"Ah Xun, you're welcome."
"We can spend time together again next year."
"But, you must have something urgent to ask Xiaoxiao for help, right?"
"Um."
Thinking of Dangdang's child, Su Xun's eyebrows were inevitably a little gloomy.
After all, he was a step too late.
What a disobedient child, as I said... Revenge is not seeking death...
However, if he had known that the monster had killed his mother and his mother's soul had not been imprisoned on the monster's back, he would probably have fought to the death with the monster right away.
What kept him forcing himself to endure the pain for two years even if he wanted to die was his obsession to save his mother's soul.
He couldn't save his mother's life.
However, he will never give up on his mother's soul.
No matter how painful it is.
…
Because he had a similar experience, he didn't even have the confidence to blame the child.
It's because he didn't give the kid enough confidence.
He also underestimated the uneasiness and hatred in the child's heart.
…
If it were him, and he saw his enemy again, instead of expecting someone he had been with for a few days to keep his promise and come back to help him get revenge, he might as well do it himself.
Moreover, if I miss this time, I don’t know what year or month I will find my enemy next time.
time does not wait.
People who are eager for revenge are far less patient.
…
Seeing the sudden depression of the young man in front of him, Father Xiao did not ask further questions.
People can speak if they want to.
If he doesn't want to talk about it, wouldn't his question expose someone's wounds and make things worse?
Father Xiao pushed the dessert plate on the table towards Su Xun, with a gentle look on his face, "Ah Xun, let's eat some snacks to fill our stomach first."
"After all, our family owns a teahouse and has been operating it for several generations, so the taste of this snack is guaranteed."
"Taste it."
"Thank you, uncle."
Perhaps the bad mood affected his appetite, but Su Xun, who should have been hungry, felt that there was no feeling of hunger in his stomach.
However, Su's mother's education from an early age prevented him from rejecting the kindness of his elders.
He picked up a piece of snack and took a bite.
The soft and sweet taste stunned him.
"Is it delicious?"
Father Xiao narrowed his eyes in understanding.
"Um."
Su Xun couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
Food can really soothe your mood.
He now indeed feels as if he has been "cured" by delicious snacks.
The aura around him was a bit softer and clearer.
However, he looked at the dishes on the table and couldn't help but think, is this too much?
…
"Ajiu, Abai."
Father Xiao looked at the two that were "ready to make a move" and couldn't help laughing, "You guys can eat too."
“There are a lot of snacks.”
…
Seeing the snacks disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye, Su Xun twitched the corners of his eyes.
He understood why there were so many snacks.
It turned out to be for these two...no, maybe more than two.
Su Xun looked intently at a plate.
He remembers it clearly.
A second ago, there were snacks on this plate.
But the next second, he felt that the snacks on the plate had disappeared without even blinking.
He looked at the little white fox and white snake not far away who were eating very quickly, but their posture was inexplicably elegant, and he had some guesses in his heart.
Monster...?
He couldn't help but look at Master Xiao.
Xiao Xiao stretched out his fingers to pick up the gluttonous rice cake, put it aside, "saved" the last piece of plum blossom cake from a greedy monster, and then pushed the plate in front of Su Xun, "Try this, my signature snack.
."
Awakened by Master Xiao's voice, Su Xun recovered from Master Xiao's rather strange actions in his eyes.
The stunned look returned to its natural state.
In his heart, he became more and more certain of his previous conjectures.
He didn't say anything, picked up the snacks on the plate and said, "Okay."
…
This is a... very beautiful snack.
Both in appearance and aroma, they were exactly the same as the white plums he had just seen in the yard.
Thinking of the white plum blossom, he couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
It's really a beautiful white plum.
Under the deep darkness of night, the white plum blossoms seemed to be glowing slightly white, as if they were illusory.
It's so beautiful that people can't help but wonder: Is what I see real?
…
Smelling the fragrant plum fragrance coming from the dim sum, he was reluctant to eat it.
After looking at it for a while, he took a bite.
As delicious as its appearance.
Su Xun's eyes lit up.
I ate the remaining plum blossom cake directly into my mouth.
"Master Xiao, this plum blossom cake is delicious."
He still had some unfinished ideas.
"Haha, if Ah Xun likes it, uncle will make it for you tomorrow."
Father Xiao was also very happy when he saw Su Xun's reaction.
Such an expression is the best affirmation of his craftsmanship.
"Thank you, uncle."
Although he felt very embarrassed, the lingering plum fragrance in his mouth prevented him from saying no.
"Haha, no trouble, no trouble."
"It's all done anyway."
Father Xiao looked at the little white fox and white snake who had finished eating a table of snacks and returned them to his son, "If there is one more person who likes to eat, just make more."
…
"The dumplings are here."
Xiao's mother came over with two bowls of dumplings, smiling.
"Auntie, I'm coming."
Su Xun immediately stepped forward and took the bowl from Xiao's mother's hand.
Xiao Xiao took the other bowl.
"You guys eat first, and I'll fry you some spring rolls."
Before the two of them could react, Xiao's mother turned around and left in a hurry.
…
Xiao Xiao walked to the yard.
Father Xiao and Mother Xiao have already gone back to their rooms to rest.
