Chapter 4440: Likeness and Dissimilarity

Mrs. Xiao is a little funny.

"You..."



Grandma Zhao touched her neck and coughed lightly.

"Seriously..."

"I never thought about giving the stone sculptures away..."

Some of her previous words were all joking.

She knew that the stone sculpture would not be a popular gift.

Big and bulky.

"But you also know that I'm moving."

"This stone sculpture is difficult to transport."

"The old man and the children all persuaded me to get rid of it."

"They even said that actually I don't need to deal with it specially."

"Just put it in the old house."

“The new owner will stay if he likes it.”

"If you don't like it, throw it away."

"Or you can just smash it."



"...I hesitated for a long time and didn't agree."

Grandma Zhao pursed her lips.

"I bought this stone sculpture."

"It's been in my house for many years."

"Old things always have some sentimentality."

"But I really don't plan to take it to a new home."

"I thought about it again and again..."

"…..I thought of you."

Grandma Zhao squeezed the phone tightly.

"Your house is big."

"There is also a yard..."

What Mrs. Xiao said before was correct.

If anyone among her friends is most likely to accept this stone sculpture, it is definitely Mrs. Xiao.

"Feel sorry."

Grandma Zhao lowered her eyelids.

"I took it for granted."

"If you don't like it..."

"You can handle it however you want."

"It's okay with me."

Now that I think about it, what she did was really a bit of a preemptive decision.

They said it was a secret, and people thought it was a surprise, but it turned out to be a shock...

She actually didn't think much about it at first.

I simply thought Mrs. Xiao’s family could let go of her stone sculpture...



"okay."

Mrs. Xiao waved her hand.

She forgot that they were talking on the phone, and Grandma Zhao couldn't see her movements.

"My grandson worked so hard to move it back..."

"Why not?"

"It's a gift you gave me after all."

"Um……"

"What a special gift."



"Really?"

Grandma Zhao was stunned, "Are you really willing to accept it?"

Then thinking of Mrs. Xiao's previous words, Grandma Zhao nodded, "Yeah."

"Thank you for your hard work, Xiaoxiao."

"Especially when I encountered other things on the way home..."

Fortunately, she insisted on letting Xiaoxiao take a taxi back.

The stone sculpture can be placed in the back of the car, so you don’t have to hold it all the time...

Well……

If Xiaoxiao didn't take a taxi, he wouldn't have encountered the oolong incident later...

Why.

Grandma Zhao is not confused.

This matter, I can't explain it in a roundabout way.

Things have happened anyway, so don’t think about what if.



"Shall I give him a gift later?"

Grandma Zhao thought, "Is there anything Xiaoxiao wants recently?"



"What gift do you want to make up for?"

Mrs. Xiao doesn't mind if her friends give gifts to her grandson.

But forget this reason.

"This is what he should do."

"Besides, he is confident that he can do it alone."

"You reminded me before, and I also told him, asking him to call his friends together..."

"He doesn't bark himself."

Having said this, Mrs. Xiao glared at her grandson slightly.

In any case, the size of this stone sculpture is there, and the weight is definitely there.

Wouldn't it be better to call one more person to make the move easier?

This kid just likes to show off.



Xiao Xiao smiled innocently at Mrs. Xiao.



"Ha ha."

Grandma Zhao smiled and shook her head, "I know it well."

Anyway, this kid Xiaoxiao came to move the stone sculptures, and she wanted to do something to thank him.



"Are you really willing to accept this stone sculpture?"

Grandma Zhao confirmed again.

"You don't have to force it."

"dislike……"

Grandma Zhao paused. She thought of the children's suggestions, "...just smash it."



"oops."

Mrs. Xiao's eyebrows were raised high.

"What to smash?"

"Are you willing?"

"Didn't you say you have feelings for it?"

"Besides, even if it's because of my grandson's hard work in moving it back, I won't smash it."

"alright."

"Don't overthink it."

"Although I don't like this stone sculpture much..."

Mrs. Xiao is very honest.



Grandma Zhao smiled bitterly.

It's hard work but there is a feeling of relief.

Mrs. Xiao is not someone who will hold on or pretend to be fat.

If you like it, you just like it.

If you don't like it, you just don't like it.

She likes this kind of honesty.

They are all quite old.

What are you doing with all the futility?

It is wrong to rely on the old and sell the old.

But at their age, they are indeed somewhat qualified to "rely on their elders and sell their elders".



"...But I don't hate it so much that I want to smash it and turn it out of sight."

Mrs. Xiao glanced at the little white fox in her grandson's arms.

"and……"

"It sounds like a coincidence."

Mrs. Xiao smiled.



"What?"

What coincidence does Grandma Zhao not understand?



"You also know that Xiaoxiao has a pet fox..."

As soon as Mrs. Xiao said these words, Grandma Zhao suddenly exclaimed in realization.



Mrs. Xiao smiled.

"This stone sculpture of yours looks very similar to Ah Jiu, Xiaoxiao's pet."

"Next time someone comes to my house and sees the stone sculpture, they might think that we specially carved a stone statue for Ah Jiu."

Thinking of that scene, a smile appeared on Mrs. Xiao's face.

It's fun, isn't it?



After being stunned for a short time, Grandma Zhao smiled.

"oops……"

"I wouldn't have thought of it unless you told me..."

Why is she so careless?

Didn't you notice such an obvious thing?

She thinks about it now...

The fox stone sculpture... does look a lot like Xiaoxiao's child's pet.

After all, they are all foxes...



Ah Jiu...

That's the name of Xiaoxiao's child's fox pet.

What a beautiful fox.

It fits everyone's imagination of foxes after seeing the gorgeous description.

She had seen Ah Jiu more than once.

You will be amazed every time.

Ah Jiu is simply too beautiful to look like a real creature.

Maybe the amazing impression left by each meeting was so profound that it was difficult for her to...

Connect the rough stone fox sculpture with the spirited Ah Jiu.

How are they similar?

They are similar.

Similar facial features, ears, tails...

But they are extremely different...



"……Won't."

Grandma Zhao murmured.

Some inexplicable words made Mrs. Xiao look confused.

"What?"

What won't?



Grandma Zhao was a little surprised.

Did she just speak out?

She didn't even notice...



"...I don't think anyone would think that the stone sculpture is Ah Jiu."

Grandma Zhao explained.

"Ajiu is so spiritual."

That stone carving is totally different.
