"I'm sorry, can I sit with you? There are no seats." The mummy finished taking the meal and came over with the little skeleton.
"Oh, it's okay, just sit down." Yun Qiuce moved to the side to make room for the mummy and his son.
The mummy took the food out of the plate, and in front of the little skeleton was a piece of pasta and a glass of juice.
In front of him was a bowl of steaming beef noodles.
The TV in the restaurant was looping the news about Bai Ying, a traffic niche student, falling from his horse.
"Eh? What's wrong with you, sir?"
Yun Qiuce mustered up the courage to stretch out his hand and wave it in front of the mummy's eyes.
The mummy picked up a large piece of steaming beef noodles with chopsticks, but did not eat it. He turned his head and stared at the TV screen, completely frozen.
Yun Qiuce's voice woke him up.
"Oh, it's okay. My brain was damaged when I died, and I often get stuck like this." The mummy tore off the bandage with her other hand, revealing a dry mouth, and then slurped down the beef noodles like an ordinary person.
This little skeleton is quite interesting.
Save the child, the child is just curious.
The cleaner next to him had dull eyes, a numb expression, and a dead look on his face. He had long been used to it. He wiped the floor clean with a rag with his hands and feet, and then stood motionless behind the little skeleton, like a spirit behind him. He seemed to be able to do it at any time.
Jump out and clean up the mess.
Yun Qiuce immediately understood that this was his exclusive way of expressing gratitude.
"Uh-huh, uh-huh..." The little skeleton pointed at the TV screen and said something.
Yun Qiuce groaned, feeling as if his shoulder had been slapped by a bear. He gritted his teeth and stood up straight, showing that he was not that fragile.
"Sun Sun? Xiao Qi, did he speak just now? Did he say Xiao Sun Sun?"
Yun Qiuce asked funnyly: "You like that brother so much, aren't you a fan of his?"
The little skull's eyes lit up, and he set off fireworks from the dark eye holes. He pointed at himself, then at Yun Qi, and started chirping again, adding exaggerated and exciting body movements.
Yun Qiuce came over with surprise on his face and asked seriously: "You said little grandson, you mean that person," pointing to the white shadow on the TV screen, "Is it your little grandson? Hahaha, you are mistaken.
Now, they are already in their twenties. According to seniority, you should call them uncle, just like you call me, you should also call them uncle..."
Yun Qiuce followed his line of sight to look at the little skeleton, and his jaw almost dropped to the ground.
“*&%￥#……”
Zhang Yong suddenly raised his head, and through the white bandage, Yun Qiuce saw a pair of dark and deep eyes, as if giving a silent warning.
Zhang Yong nodded and looked at Yun Qiuce, "I also know that your Yun family, the Xuanmen family in Haizhou, has been passed down for five generations. I see that you are living quite comfortably. I didn't expect that your family is willing to raise idle people!"
The little skeleton tilted its head, looking extremely innocent. Its dark eye holes seemed to be thinking very seriously for a moment. Then, it held its head with two small hands, and instantly transformed into a flattering sunflower.
The little skeleton was stunned. He put his index finger on his chin and thought carefully about what fans meant. Then he shook his skull head and struggled to say two words from between his teeth:
"Little grandson!"
"Don't worry about him. My name is not Big Guy. My name is Zhang Yong. This is the human name I gave myself."
Yun Qiuce suspected that he might perform a gorilla-specific chest-beating move on the spot.
Yun Qi took out a handful of candies from the bear doll's pocket, stretched out her hand and placed it in front of the little skeleton.
The mummy gulped down the meal without any reaction to her son's actions.
Yun Qiuce was startled, "Huh? How can you talk? I...I also have a serious job. Just like our Xiaoqi, we are just a child. I can't take care of her anywhere!"
"Sorry, I haven't interacted with living people for a long time. I'm not very good at talking. Sometimes I just say whatever I think. I don't mean to look down on you."
The little skeleton became stubborn and like a naughty human child, he broke away from his father's hand, pointed at the TV screen and babbled a lot.
His impression of this big mummy suddenly changed.
Zhang Yong raised his head and looked at Yun Qi, "I know you. You are the little ghost princess who solved the corpse ghost case with Li Bai."
"It doesn't matter," the mummy shrugged nonchalantly, "We are monsters outside, but you are a monster in the 49th round. It's even."
Yun Qi stuck out her tongue in embarrassment, "If you're not a little princess, you're just a part-time worker. Every once in a while, you have to collect 500 resentful spirits and hand them over. It's super stressful."
The little skeleton took a big bite of pasta, and now he was drinking juice. The juice flowed down his mouth, his throat bone penetrated his chest, and flowed to the ground.
Yun Qiuce:......
The mummy looked at her son. His face was covered with bandages. When he looked at people, he always looked through the gaps in the bandages. At this time, his gentle gaze leaked out of the gaps.
"Um... let me ask in an offended tone, do you... still need to eat in this state?"
"No," Zhang Yong put down his chopsticks and said in a deep voice: "My son has been dead for nearly a hundred years, so it's not a loss to call you my grandson according to his seniority!"
"That's it. It doesn't matter to me. I've seen a lot of monsters with Xiao Qi... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to say that you are a monster."
To express his apology, Zhang Yong stretched out a hand and patted Yun Qiuce's shoulder heavily.
Yun Qiuce reminded in a low voice, "Hey, big guy, your son seems to be talking about something."
Yun Qi smiled sweetly, "You're welcome, this candy is super fragrant. My sister is going to have her teeth replaced, so she can't eat candy."
"Oh, you are not a monster. You must have had your own name when you were alive. Why don't you use your own name?" Yun Qiuce asked with a smile.
Yun Qiuce twitched the corner of his mouth, and saw the little skeleton put down the juice, then looked at the TV, pointed at the TV screen with a slender bone finger, and kept talking in his mouth.
"Sorry to scare you, but this way my son can feel the taste of the juice." The mummy explained.
Yun Qiuce was so frightened that he quickly looked away and glanced at Yun Qi asking for help.
The mummy stretched out a big hand to straighten his son's head and said in a deep voice: "Eat your food!"
He even picked up the spoon and took a sip of the spicy soup.
The mummy shook his head, "Actually, I just need to absorb spiritual energy, but I was also a living person before, and I also know the delicious food in the world, so the doctors from the 49th Bureau helped me make some improvements, so that I can eat and feel like ordinary people.
The food is delicious and so is my son!”
He looked at Yun Qi awkwardly.
Yun Qi was so blessed that she had an idea and said, "My father is the Ghost King of Fengdu. According to my seniority, it's not a bad idea for others to call me aunt when they see me!"
Yun Qiuce's mouth twitched again, oh, you are all elders, you are noble!
"Little grandson... he's dead... he's dead!" The little skeleton pointed at the TV screen and said "Zeh-Zeh-huh".
