The guy came back to his senses from his daze, his eyes were astonishingly bright.
The imperativeness in their eyes made Grandpa Xiao and Grandma Xiao frown tightly when they saw the stranger later.
They had a hunch that things were about to get tricky.
The result is exactly the same.
...
"That guy is very patient and very strategic."
"Keep trying to get us to loosen up."
...
"It was just one day. Your mother, grandparents, and I were all undisturbed and wanted to drive people away."
...
Xiao Xiao couldn't help but laugh at Father Xiao's narration.
It seemed that Father Xiao was really impatient.
...
"Now I feel a headache just thinking about that guy coming tomorrow."
Father Xiao stretched out his hand and rubbed the center of his eyebrows, "It's not easy to drive people away forcefully."
It's obvious that the other party is shamelessly coveting other people's things...
They made it so clear and still refused to give up.
...
"He probably won't tell anyone yet."
"If he is forced to ask others for help, this matter will really be endless."
Just because they are afraid of this, the talents of the Xiao family are restrained.
...
It's already so difficult to deal with alone.
If a few more come, will they still have a peaceful life?
...
"Dad, you don't have to worry about this matter. Just like grandpa said, just leave it to me."
Xiao Xiao repeated his words again, and before Xiao's father was about to speak, he said: "Dad, you go and rest."
"It's very late now."
"Maybe mom will find you missing later and have to find you again."
...
Father Xiao moved his lips a few times, but still swallowed what he wanted to say.
Even though the yard has a slight light because of the white plum blossoms.
It seems that the night is not very dark.
Actually, it's almost midnight now.
...
It is indeed very late.
Let’s talk about this matter tomorrow.
"Well, I'm going to bed."
"Xiaoxiao, you should go to bed early."
...
"good."
Xiao Xiao responded.
Seeing Father Xiao going upstairs and disappearing behind the door, Xiao Xiao withdrew his gaze.
He tilted his head slightly and said, "Plum Girl."
...
Just when Father Xiao turned to leave, Mei Nu appeared beside him.
The cold fragrance floats, refreshing and elegant.
...
Mei Nu's expression was especially clear and indifferent tonight.
Xiao Xiao saw a slightly undetectable uneasiness in its eyes.
He smiled and said, "Mei Nu, this is not your fault."
"It was just an accident."
...
Mei Nu's tense expression softened a little because of Xiao Xiao's words.
It lowered its eyes and felt that the feeling of emptiness that had always been in its heart had disappeared.
The pale lips pursed slightly, forming a slight arc.
...
Mei Nu told what happened during the day.
...
At that time, the grandparents of the Xiao family were sitting at the stone table under the white plum tree eating.
...
After Xiao Xiao dug the pond, Xiao's father ordered a set of stone tables and chairs and placed them under the white plum tree.
In addition to enjoying the cool air at night, the Xiao family also likes to eat here sometimes.
...
The coolness is refreshing and the fragrance of plum blossoms is intoxicating.
Under the white plum tree is really a good place to whet your appetite.
...
Mei Nu was watching the daily play about the frog god teaching Ling Xing, and for a moment she didn't notice anyone approaching the yard.
As a result, that human saw a tree full of white plum blossoms in full bloom.
...
After several previous visits, Plum Girl also knew that it was a rare sight for white plum blossoms to bloom at this time.
It doesn't need Xiao Xiao's reminder, it will also consciously restore the white plum tree to the way it should be at this season when humans other than the Xiao family arrive.
...
However, this time, it was indeed negligent.
...
Hearing that the human wanted to buy white plums, it was very angry.
This white plum belongs to him.
It was the place given to it by Master Xiao Xiao.
It likes it very much.
That human...how dare he covet?!
...
However, when he saw the distressed look of the Xiao family, he became a little uneasy.
Its momentary negligence seems to have caused trouble for Master Xiao Xiao's family.
Realizing this, it began to wait for Master Xiao Xiao's return with some anxiety.
I wonder if Mr. Xiao Xiao will blame it?
...
"Master Xiao Xiao, I'm sorry."
Mei Nu bent her waist deeply.
Long hair like a waterfall fell from its shoulders, blocking its profile.
...
"Mei Nu, I told you, this is not your fault."
"You don't have to apologize."
Xiao Xiao shook his head and said, "The moonlight is very good tonight. You can go practice."
...
"It's time for me to sleep too."
"Good night, Plum Girl."
...
"Good night, Master Xiao Xiao."
The plum girl gathered her skirt and bowed.
Then Xiao Xiao's familiar shallow smile appeared on his raised face.
As beautiful and charming as ever.
...
The next day, when Father Xiao opened the door of the teahouse, he saw a familiar figure waiting at the door.
It was the guy who pestered them all day yesterday to buy white plums.
Father Xiao:......
He felt that most of his good mood early in the morning had disappeared.
...
"Good morning, boss."
The annoying guy didn't have any consciousness and greeted Father Xiao with a smile on his face, "I'm here again."
...
What I said... is really infuriating.
Father Xiao couldn't help but stretched out his hand and pressed his trembling eyebrows.
Who asked you to come again?
Do you know you are not welcome here?
...
However, it is naturally impossible to really say these words.
Seeing the eager and even attentive smile on the other person's face, Father Xiao had a headache.
He twitched his lips and said, "Guest, you came really early."
"The teahouse has just opened."
...
"Well, I made a note of the teahouse's opening time yesterday."
The man couldn't help but reveal a bit of pride in his words, "I just wanted to be the first customer to come to my door."
...
Father Xiao:......
He didn't quite understand, what was there to be proud of?
...
"Boss, have you thought about it?"
"About that white plum-"
The man's words were interrupted by Father Xiao, seemingly unintentionally, "Guest, please sit down first."
...
Yesterday, Father Xiao tried his best to talk and poured water into several large pots, but he still couldn't explain this man.
Today, Father Xiao didn't want to talk to him any more about Bai Mei.
Anyway, they just use it.
Let’s see who can outlast whom?
...
"I'll serve you tea."
"Is it still the same as yesterday?"
...
"Have you had breakfast?"
"Would you like some refreshments?"
"What kind of refreshments would you like?"
...
The man shrugged and didn't care.
Anyway, he has a lot of time.
He told his boss yesterday that he works in a family business and attendance and sign-in are just a decoration for him.
...
"It's just as good as yesterday."
He has no special preference for tea.
And the purpose of his coming here is not really to drink tea.
...
"More refreshments."
"Have a little of each."
The man touched his belly and found that he had indeed not eaten breakfast.
He hadn't felt it before, but now that the boss told him, he was really hungry.
