This week, due to their hesitation, they were inevitably a little distracted and may have neglected their children.
But, no matter what, this child is the child of their Zhang family, the child they have longed to be born and doted on so far. They just can't turn around for a while, but as time goes by, they will realize that the child is still
their child.
They will treat the child differently because there is a bug in his body.
But it won't be a bad change, they will only cherish this child even more.
This child will truly be their Zhang family’s biggest treasure from now on.
They knew this very clearly after they decided not to remove the alcohol bug from the child's body.
…
Xiao Xiao lowered his eyes and smiled gently at the child.
In this case, the child should soon resume his previous life.
No, the Zhang family should love this child even more.
Xiao Xiao suddenly had a strange idea. If this child turns into a spendthrift dandy in the future, can the wine bug still guarantee his wealth?
How powerful is the wine bug?
…
Xiao Xiao suddenly smiled, no matter whether the final outcome is good or bad, it will be the child's own life from now on.
Everything he could do has been done.
…
Naturally, we had lunch at Zhang’s house.
At the dinner table, the Zhang family was extremely enthusiastic.
Meng Jixi scanned the Zhang family back and forth several times without leaving any trace, observing their every move.
His ears never let go of any of their words.
He looked again at the child sitting next to his mother.
The little child is not even good at holding chopsticks, but he drinks wine more boldly than many adults.
Moreover, the innocent and satisfied expression on his face, as if he was drinking some nectar and jade liquid, always made Meng Jixi feel a little out of place.
Maybe it's because this too adult expression of an alcoholic appears on a child's face?
…
And, very strange.
When he first entered the house, he saw the gloomy expressions on the Zhang family's faces and thought it was because Master Xiao had cured the child's alcoholism.
However, later at the dinner table, he saw the Zhang family pouring wine for their children without caring?!
The natural gesture made the question he wanted to speak get stuck in his throat.
He knew that his expression at that time should be obvious, but no one gave him an answer.
So, he knew that even if he asked himself, he probably wouldn't get the real answer.
but why?
It is obvious that the Zhang family was initially troubled and depressed because of their child's inexplicable alcoholism. Now that the child is still addicted to alcohol, they all look relieved and even a little weirdly excited?
He doesn't understand.
Meng Jixi looked at Master Xiao beside him.
He suddenly remembered their last conversation.
He asked Master Xiao: Has the child's problem been solved?
Master Xiao replied: It depends on the Zhang family's choice.
…
Seeing the strange behavior of the Zhang family at this time, Meng Jixi seemed to have a slightly different feeling about Master Xiao's answer at that time.
However, there was really too little information. He couldn't figure out what Master Xiao's so-called "choice" was even if he tried hard.
He made a very frustrated "tsk" sound.
…
The meal didn't take long. After all, even if the Zhang family enthusiastically encouraged them to drink, Meng Jixi naturally refused to drink because he had to drive. Xiao Xiao, like last time, just had a small drink and stopped drinking.
The wine brought out by the Zhang family was good, but it was still not as good as the wine he had brought from the rooster before.
Moreover, he was not good at what was in the cup, so he could not resist the hospitality and just drank a cup.
No matter how much you ask, he won't be grateful.
…
After eating and sitting for a while, Xiao Xiao and Xiao Xiao declined the Zhang family's warm invitation to stay and stood up to leave.
Meng Jixi consciously started the car first, leaving Xiao Xiao alone to "deal with" the Zhang family.
Xiao Xiao was "haunted" by the Zhang family again.
After finally getting away, Xiao Xiao simply said "goodbye" and turned around and walked towards the car, rejecting their intention to take him to the car.
…
Just when he was about to open the car door, "Master Xiao." came a somewhat urgent voice.
Xiao Xiao's hand rested on the doorknob, and when he looked back, it was the child's mother - Liu Qian.
…
Xiao Xiao curled his lips with some understanding.
Seeing Xiao Xiao's expression, Liu Qian was a little confused and surprised, "Did you know I would come over?"
She glanced at the Zhang family standing at the door with the corners of her eyes uneasily.
She also hesitated for a long time, watching Master Xiao who was surrounded by the Zhang family, watching Master Xiao say goodbye to the Zhang family, watching Master Xiao reject the Zhang family's farewell, watching Master Xiao walk to the car at the entrance of the yard
.
Until she saw Master Xiao reaching for the car door handle, she ran over faster than her brain, and even called Master Xiao.
Regarding Master Xiao's unsurprised expression, Liu Qian was confused and a little at a loss.
She felt like she was being seen through by the overly young Master Xiao in front of her.
…
Xiao Xiao didn't answer Liu Qian's question, he just had an intuition.
The Zhang family not only has to think about their children, but also the winery that the Zhang family has inherited to this day.
However, mothers often think wholeheartedly about their children.
There is no right or wrong between the two approaches, it's just because everyone has different responsibilities.
He thought that Liu Qian, as the child's mother, would always ask him something.
At the previous dinner table, Liu Qian had been distracted, occasionally looking at the child, and then at him. When taking care of the child, she was also a bit perfunctory and careless, but she never said anything, looking very worried.
He also became more certain that Liu Qian would come to him alone later.
…
Looking at Master Xiao who was smiling and saying nothing, Liu Qian didn't care about the answer to this question. She came over because she had other more important questions to ask.
"Master Xiao, do you really think it would be better not to remove the alcohol bug from the child's body?"
Liu Qian's voice was trembling, but it was very tight. She stared at Xiao Xiao with a bit of stubbornness in her eyes, as if she must hear a definite or reassuring answer from Master Xiao's mouth.
Xiao Xiao looked at Liu Qian, who seemed to be a little thinner than the last time they met. The smile on her face gradually disappeared, and her voice was gentle but without any waves, showing a strange coldness.
"Didn't you already make a decision?"
"Yes, but...I..."
Liu Qian was a little flustered, and for a moment she didn't know how to express her complicated psychology and tangled emotions.
...
Xiao Xiao just looked at her quietly.
There is no pressure or impatience.
His eyes were calm from beginning to end, yet inexplicably calming.
