Although she was very angry at her daughter's wasteful behavior of throwing away the doll...
But now it's outside.
She could clearly feel the gaze cast on their mother and daughter.
She didn't want them, especially her daughter, to become a topic of conversation after dinner.
Although she knew that everything that had happened before was enough for them to talk about with their friends.
At least, she didn't want to create more topics for discussion.
Let’s talk more about it when we get home.
But now she doesn't say anything, and the little girl's mother is a little frustrated.
The purple bunny doll was a birthday gift from her to her daughter.
…
"Even if you want this purple bunny doll later, you won't have it anymore."
The little girl's mother said ugly things in front of her.
"You lost it yourself."
"Think clearly..."
"You can't think of a way to get it back now..."
"Don't tell mom later that you want it."
"There's no way Mom can get the original bunny doll back."
"I won't even buy you a new bunny stuffed animal."
"Do you understand?"
…
The mother's rather cautious tone made the little girl purse her lips uneasily.
she…..
Little girl holds a pink balloon in her arms.
The fat and bulging balloons shimmered slightly in the sun.
"...I don't like purple."
The little girl said again.
It's like convincing myself, or just stating the facts.
"dislike."
The little girl emphasized again.
…
The little girl’s mother:…
She glanced at the balloon in the child's arms.
A free balloon…
Even if you buy balloons, they don’t cost much...
Does this silly girl know how many pink balloons she can buy for the price of the purple bunny doll she threw away?
…
It’s like picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelon.
The little girl's mother shook her head slightly.
"OK."
"You don't like it."
The little girl's mother holds her child's arm.
Because the child's two hands were holding the balloon, it was difficult for her to hold it.
"Then let's go home."
She had a lot to talk to this child.
The child's performance today simply refreshed her understanding of children.
…
"Um."
The little girl had no idea what her mother was planning.
After successfully getting the pink balloon she took a fancy to, the little girl was finally happy.
There was a hint of excitement in her steps.
Hum hum.
In the end she won.
The little girl was a little proud.
…
The mother took the child and left.
The stopped passers-by took steps again.
…
Xiao Xiao slightly curved the corners of his mouth.
He tilted his head casually.
It's like looking at the Pipa ghost.
He seemed to be looking at the big tree next to him.
"see it?"
…
Pipa Ghost tilted his head in confusion.
What did you see?
…
Xiao Xiao smiled.
"If that old man really has a reason for hating Pipa as you said, then it will be difficult for him to let go of that reason."
…
ah?
Pipa Ghost opened his eyes in confusion.
…
"Children listen to their parents the most."
Xiao Xiao explained leisurely.
"But when a child hates something, the words of parents have no effect."
"Not to mention other people's words?"
"...disgust is likely to lessen over time."
"But it's also possible that it will deepen over time."
"Well."
"Maybe it's not appropriate to say deepen?"
"...but as time goes by, hating something has become deeply rooted in the bone marrow and has become a habit."
"Even a gut reaction."
"Instinctive dislike."
"Instinctive resistance."
"Coupled with my own psychological effects..."
I will tell myself over and over again...
ah.
I hate this.
…
"Even if I don't really hate it that much..."
Xiao Xiao thought of another possibility.
"Because I think I am annoying..."
"He will only act annoying."
…
"Drink~"
Pipa Ghost is a little confused.
…
Xiao Xiao felt like he could see the mosquito coils in Pipa Ghost's eyes.
A smile flashed across his eyes.
"It doesn't matter."
"If you don't understand, don't think about it."
He just thought that the episode just now was a coincidence, and it happened to be somewhat related to the content of their previous conversation, so he said a few words to Pipa Ghost.
…
"When do you want me to talk to the old man?"
Xiao Xiao smiled and changed the topic.
To be honest, after being able to see monsters and having more contact with monsters, Xiao Xiao not only became much thicker-skinned, but also became bolder.
I even feel a little comfortable chatting with strangers.
In the past, he actually always felt that he had some social fears.
Now, of course, he cannot be said to be a social cow.
It's a combination of social bulliness and social fear.
In response to the monster's request, he can contact and communicate with strangers without too many scruples.
…
"Drink~"
Pipa Ghost grinned.
Master Xiao Xiao's words suddenly made him forget his doubts from the previous second.
It shook its feet.
It will take a few days.
It told Master Xiao Xiao.
The old man went on a trip.
It will take a few days to come back.
…
"good."
Xiao Xiao nodded.
"When he comes back, you can come to me."
…
"Drink~"
The Pipa Ghost fiddled with the strings happily.
The clear syllables are like petals that have just opened, making people feel amazed for a moment.
…
"Pipa ghost."
Xiao Xiao leaned back on the chair.
Look up at the clear and clear sky.
The bright sunshine shines on his face.
There is the smell of flowers in the air, and...the aroma of tempting food.
After all, there is a fast food restaurant behind you.
Xiao Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly.
"I want to hear your performance."
"Can you play a song for me?"
…
"Drink~"
Pipa Ghost smiled brightly.
certainly.
Master Xiao Xiao likes its performance and he is very happy.
As long as Mr. Xiao Xiao wants to listen, it will not refuse Mr. Xiao Xiao's request to play.
…
Soon, the beautiful and light pipa music gurgled out like spring water in the mountain forest.
Ding dong all the way down.
It gives people a comfortable feeling almost as if they are being caressed by a gentle breeze carrying water vapor.
…
Xiao Xiao opened his eyes.
Just now, in order to concentrate on listening to the Pipa Ghost's performance, he closed his eyes.
Now, even the lingering sound in his ears had dissipated, and he slowly opened his eyes.
The next second, Xiao Xiao's eyebrows raised slightly.
He had noticed it the moment his eyes fell on him.
He thought it was just passing by.
Unexpectedly, this gaze did not leave until he was about to open his eyes.
…
He curved the corners of his mouth slightly.
The owner of the sight is a child.
The focus of children's eyes...
On the little white fox in his arms.
Xiao Xiao smiled without any surprise.
…
Noticing that Xiao Xiao opened his eyes, the child took a step back as if he was frightened.
