Mutansong subconsciously followed and looked over.
Um?
He narrowed his eyes slightly.
There seemed to be scattered snow near the wall.
He looked up.
There is less snow on the fence...
A look of surprise gradually appeared on Mu Tansong's face.
oh……
"Did the snow fall off the fence?"
…
"Yes."
Xiao Xiao nodded.
Although it's more accurate to say that he was knocked down by Lin Xin.
But it can be considered a fall.
…
"oh oh."
Mu Tansong took another look at the "gap" in the wall.
No wonder there was such a loud noise.
After all, it is such a big pile of snow.
He thought something unexpected had happened...
It shocked him so much.
…
Since it's okay...
Mu Tansong smiled sheepishly at Xiao Xiao and explained briefly.
"I thought something happened in the yard..."
"sorry."
Mu Tansong simply apologized.
If it were Mu's father who was here at this time, there would be no need to apologize.
After all, we have been neighbors for many years.
But he is different.
He, this family, the young man in front of him, and his savior could even be said to be strangers.
"I just opened the door and came in..."
…
"It doesn't matter."
Xiao Xiao shook his head, "Thank you for your concern."
He naturally knew the reason why Mu Tansong opened the door and came in anxiously.
…
"Well……"
Mu Tansong sneered.
He felt somewhat well-deserved for this thank you.
It's simply a misunderstanding.
Nothing happened in the yard.
Otherwise, what else could he do if he just stared at Bai Mei's entranced performance as soon as he came in?
By the time he realizes what to do... it's most likely already too late.
He suddenly somewhat understood the meaning of "beauties are a disaster" that many people criticized...
"Beauty" can really cause trouble.
…
All right.
It was also because of his poor concentration.
Mu Tansong glanced at Bai Mei.
This time, he quickly withdrew his gaze.
Otherwise, if he moves too slowly, he is worried that he will be addicted to Baimei's "beauty" and cannot extricate himself.
…
Mu Tansong looked at Xiao Xiao.
Lift the bag in your hand.
"This is a gift from my father to you."
…
"Mu Lao?"
Xiao Xiao was a little surprised.
"Let's go inside first."
Xiao Xiao reached out and took the bag from Mu Tansong's hand.
He did not open it in a hurry, but first invited Mu Tansong into the house.
In the middle of winter, it’s the time when the weather is freezing.
He noticed that Mutansong's ears and nose were red.
…
"good."
After being stunned for a moment, Mu Tansong nodded.
After all, he still had something to say to Xiao Xiao for Mu's father, otherwise he would just leave after the things were given.
He and Xiao Xiao...he really didn't know what to talk about...
There are no common memories or common topics...
...
"Hoo~"
A gust of cold wind blew by, and Mu Tansong couldn't help but shiver.
So cold.
...
Such a cold day...
Mu Tansong took a look at Xiao Xiao's clothes.
I took another look at my outfit...
Is this the difference caused by the age gap?
He is also considered to be in the prime of life with strong vitality and blood.
Why is it that compared with Xiao Xiao, he is as afraid of the cold as an old man?
...
Entering the house, Mu Tansong breathed a sigh of relief.
The wind finally died down.
He rubbed his ears.
It felt like my ears were about to burst from the cold.
As expected, I came out in a hurry.
I should have worn a hat...
...
"sit."
Xiao Xiao put the bag on the coffee table and walked into the kitchen.
Mu Tansong looked at the sofa in confusion, and then at Xiao Xiao's back as he left.
After hesitating for a few seconds, he sat down on the sofa stiffly.
...
Xiao Xiao came back soon.
Holding hot tea and snacks in hand.
"Please have tea."
He put the teacup and snacks on the coffee table.
"You can warm yourself up."
...
Mu Tansong "commands" one action at a time.
He carefully raised the teacup and brought it to his mouth.
The strong aroma of tea hits your nose.
It instantly dispersed most of the plum fragrance that was still lingering on his nose.
...
"Be careful of burning."
Xiao Xiao reminded with a smile.
...
Mu Tansong nodded.
He blew a few sips of tea.
Then he took a careful sip.
Immediately, the cheeks and teeth felt fragrant.
The slightly hot tea slid down his throat.
There was some warmth in his limbs.
He couldn't help but let out a sigh.
The warm feeling is really comfortable.
He relaxed.
...
Xiao Xiao smiled.
"There are also snacks here."
"It is the proud work of our teahouse."
...
Since Xiao Xiao said so, Mu Tansong picked up a piece of snack and put it in his mouth.
He was slightly startled.
Then he laughed.
As expected, the delicious taste lives up to its exquisite appearance.
"delicious."
He looked at Xiao Xiao.
The Xiao family is worthy of running a teahouse.
Whether it's tea or snacks, they are all of a very high standard.
“The craftsmanship is great.”
...
"Thanks."
"Eat more if you like it."
Xiao Xiao raised the corners of his mouth.
...
"Ah good."
Mu Tansong took another piece of snack and stuffed it into his mouth.
What he was doing... even if he was just eating, made him feel less embarrassed.
...
Xiao Xiao took the bag on the coffee table.
"Can I open it now?"
...
"......Can."
Mu Tansong hurriedly swallowed the snack in his mouth.
"This was originally a gift from my dad to you."
...
"Grandpa Mu is too polite."
Xiao Xiao took out a well-sealed wooden box from the bag.
He opened the box.
...
Xiao Xiao was a little stunned.
this is......
...
When he saw the works in the wooden box, even though it was not his first time, Mu Tansong was still amazed.
I also intuitively felt the huge gap between myself and my father.
He felt frustrated.
But it also boosted the fighting spirit.
One day, he will also produce works like this.
...
Xiao Xiao took out the wood carving from the wooden box.
Very familiar wood carving.
It's very similar to the wood carving that Mu Lao gave him before.
It can even be said that they are almost identical.
The only difference...
...
Xiao Xiao's eyes fell on the wooden carving of his left hand.
Ah Bai, who raised his head, spoke with great accuracy.
It's obviously made of wood.
But not bulky at all.
On the contrary, it showed a bit of agility.
After all, this wood sculpture even depicts the twisted curvature of the body.
The tip of the slightly raised tail seemed to be about to be photographed in the next second.
...
"sharp."
Xiao Xiao admired it wholeheartedly.
"Mu Lao's craftsmanship is amazing."
...
Mu Tansong grinned unconsciously.
That's natural.
His dad is great.
...
Xiao Xiao arched his eyebrows.
“I didn’t expect Mu Lao to actually carve this work again.”
At that time, Mu Lao regretted that he did not realize that Abai was not a bracelet, but a living snake. He bluntly said that the carved work should have been presented better.
Grandpa Xiao joked and asked Mu Lao to carve another one.
Mu Lao said it depends on the state and inspiration.
Unknowingly, a long time has passed since the last gift...
