C881 Seven above and Eight below

2"What is it? To scare me? Threatening me? Threatening me? Hee hee. "Second Wife isn't afraid, but do you think she's scared out of her wits?" Xia Yu continued to pester him.

"I know you're not scared, but I hope you don't mess around." "No," I said.

"Eh. Second Master, Second Wife never messes around anymore. Second Wife misses Second Master. Ever since Second Wife became Second Master's man, she only has Second Master in her heart and can't pretend to be someone else. Sigh. "Second Master, Second Wife really misses you. It's the new year, Second Wife is alone at home. It's so boring." Xia Yu sounded wronged.

Thinking about Xia Yu's past, I suddenly felt pity and sympathy in my heart. Yes, it's the new year, a child without a mother is really pitiful.

"It's the new year, I don't want to make Second Master unhappy. No more, that's all. " Xia Yu hung up the phone.

After putting down the phone, my heart started to churn. Xia Yu had always been bold when she did things. I was really worried that she would suddenly appear at my doorstep.

We soon reached the town. Fourth Brother got off the car and returned to his own place. I returned home depressingly.

At this time, the sky had already darkened, and dinner was already prepared at home. Everyone was sitting around the dining table.

Seeing me come back, Snowy jumped over and held my hand, "Uncle Yi, Grandma was just about to call you and ask if you came back for dinner."

When I entered the living room, Qiu Tong sat at the dining table and smiled at me. "I'm back."

I nodded. Qiu Tong's face looked much better today.

"Sit down and eat." Qiu Tong said softly.

I sat next to Qiu Tong.

"Did you drink too much when you entered the city today?" Dad looked at me.

"No —" I said.

"This is a rare occurrence. In the past years, every new year, when you entered the city to play with your classmates and friends, you would always come back very late. All of you reeked of alcohol. I don't think you drank today." Mom said to me, laughing.

I smiled but didn't say anything. I picked up my chopsticks and started eating.

Everyone ate together.

After dinner, everyone was watching TV in the living room, drinking tea and eating snacks while chatting. I was a little depressed and annoyed, so I found an excuse to go to my room and lean against my bed in a daze.

While he was lost in his thoughts, the door to his room was gently pushed open and Qiu Tong walked in.

I sat up, and Qiu Tong sat on the chair beside my bed and looked at me.

"How do you feel?" "No," I said.

"Much better." Qiu Tong said.

"Yes." "That's good!" "No," I said.

"Living at your home these past few days has really given your parents a lot of trouble, and I feel so bad about it!" Qiu Tong said.

"Don't say that, my parents treat you like family." "No," I said.

"Although I said that, I still feel very apologetic in my heart." Qiu Tong said, "I talked to your mother this afternoon. I want to bring Snowy home tomorrow."

I was stunned as I looked at Qiu Tong. "Why are you rushing back so early?"

"You'll have to go back sooner or later. I think the disturbance over at Hsinghai should pass by now. Living in your house all the time isn't a big deal. "So, I think."

"Your body hasn't recovered yet, you can't leave!" I said firmly.

Qiu Tong lowered her eyes and said, "That's what your mom said this afternoon. She insisted on not letting me go. She insisted that I leave after my body recovered. She wanted me to go back with you."

"What my mom said is right. With your current condition, you have to take care of yourself. Don't let her mess with you!" "No," I said.

Qiu Tong looked at me, then lowered her head and sighed softly. Her expression seemed a little uneasy.

I looked at Qiu Tong and felt a sudden surge of tenderness.

After a while, Qiu Tong raised her head and looked at me. "Did you encounter any unhappy things when you went to Ningzhou City today?"

I said, "What is it? "Why do you say that?"

"I saw that you looked depressed and listless after you came back. It seems that you have something on your mind!" Qiu Tong said.

I tried to smile. "You're thinking too much. How could I have anything on my mind?" I'm just a little tired. "

Qiu Tong looked at me and said, "Don't lie, you can't fool me. Although I don't know what's on your mind, although I know that you might not tell me, but my intuition tells me that you are in a bad mood after coming back to the city today." Something must have happened to you in the city. "

I didn't look at Qiu Tong and lowered my head. "Your intuition may not be accurate. Don't make wild guesses. Am I not back in good shape?"

Qiu Tong looked at me in silence for a moment, then opened her mouth as if to say something, but nothing came out.

At this moment, Snowy ran in and jumped up and down saying, "Uncle Yi, mom, I want to release fireworks. Grandma won't let me."

I stood up and said to Snowy, "Let's go, Snowy. Uncle will release fireworks for you!"

Qiu Tong stood up as well.

We went out into the yard and I took out the fireworks and began to put them on.

Multicolored fireworks blossomed beautifully in the sky, and Snowy danced on the side as she shouted happily.

Qiu Tong raised her head to look at the resplendent light in the night sky with a gloomy expression.

Looking at Qiu Tong's expression, I started to feel uneasy.

Qiu Tong seemed to have an intuition, as if her intuition wasn't directed at me in the city during the day. It was as if she had sensed something else.

The next day, after breakfast, Snowy clamored to go up the mountain to dig for winter bamboo shoots.

I took snow and clouds up the mountain with me and dug up winter bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest on the mountain.

After a day of digging up winter bamboo shoots, the harvest was quite bountiful.

In the evening, Mom made a big bowl of delicious bamboo shoot soup.

The third day of the new year passed by peacefully.

The next day was the fourth day.

Today was a sunny day, and the temperature was rising.

Mom moved a bamboo chair and let Qiu Tong sit in the yard to bask in the sun.

Snowy took a stool next to Qiu Tong and pestered her mother to tell her a story.

Clouds were helping Mom with the housework in the kitchen, and Dad was in the living room, drinking tea and watching TV.

I took the broom and cleaned the yard.

Qiu Tong told Snowy the story in a slow and soft voice. Snowy listened intently with her cheeks held up, while her mother walked from the living room to the kitchen, looking at Qiu Tong and Snowy from time to time with a kind and loving smile on her face.

This was a warm and peaceful scene in a civilian family.

This scene gave me a faint sense of happiness.

Perhaps, really, the demand for happiness is not high, ordinary is happiness.

Thinking of Duan Xiangloong, who just returned to the west, thinking of the conflicts and worries in the world, thinking of those tangled people and matters in the world of mortals, I felt troubled and at peace.

In reality, how could the current me have the qualifications to enjoy such happiness?

Even now, the most ordinary life has become my dream!

Thinking of this, my heart filled with bitterness, as well as indescribable sorrow.

Just as she was gloomily focused on cleaning, she suddenly heard Snowy yell, "Grandpa, Grandma, there's a guest at home!"

Hearing Snowy's voice, I looked up.

The moment I raised my head, the first guests that came to visit me were probably Haifeng and Hai Zhu. They came back from Canada and came to my home to pay my respects to my parents.

However, the moment I saw the visitors, I was stunned. The guests were indeed two, but it wasn't Haifeng and Hai Zhu, but —

Dong Xue and Xia Yu!

Dong Xue came!

Xia Yu came!

Previously, First Wife and Second Wife had come together!

How did these two come together?

I felt that it was absurd and inconceivable, but I didn't feel that it was too bizarre. After all, according to Dong Xue's character and Xia Yu's way of doing things, together, they could do many unimaginable things.

Dong Xue's appearance caused me to recall the words she said to me when I met her in Ningzhou two days ago. Perhaps, she came here to pay her respects to my parents, but, I think, her intention was even more so for me. She wanted to see if I was here, to understand the true intent behind Liu Tie's back when I went to Ningzhou to find Duan Xiangloong. I think she already knew about Duan Xiangloong's death. Could she have thought that I killed Duan Xiangloong? Did she know that Bai Laosan arranged for people to kill Duan Xiangloong? Was her coming here today related to this as well?

A series of question marks sprouted in my head.

And Xia Yu, this crazy girl who could do whatever she wanted, had really come to my house to pay her respects to my "parents-in-law!" In the end, she didn't listen to me, and in the end, she managed to come here.

From her appearance together with Dong Xue, it was easy for me to determine that she had found Dong Xue and used her to find my house.

She had an idea and knew how to make use of Dong Xue's convenience.

I don't know what she said to Dong Xue, and I don't know why Dong Xue agreed to bring her here. It seems to me that there is no common interest between Dong Xue and Xia Yu, who should be competing against each other over fire and water. Xia Yu coming to Dong Xue surprised me, Dong Xue can bring Xia Yu to me even more surprised.

No matter how unexpected I was, they were at my door before I could think of anything else.

They really came.

On the fourth day of the new year, four of the women I had experienced in my life had appeared at my house.

It was highly likely that Hai Zhu would come today as well.

And so, it was all here! Everyone was here!

I felt an inexplicable fear and absurdity in my heart. How could such a scene appear? How could Yin and Yang end up in such a state?

Without time to think any further, Dong Xue and Xia Yu had already walked in.

Hearing Snowy's call, her parents and Yun Yang also walked out.

Everyone's expression changed the moment they saw each other.

When Dong Xue and Xia Yu saw Snowy and Qiu Tong, both of them showed an expression of surprise. Xia Yu's expression aside from surprise, there was also surprise and surprise. Her mouth slightly opened, as if she was stunned. Dong Xue, on the other hand, had regained her composure quickly. She pursed her lips and glanced at the clouds and Xiao Xue, before looking at Qiu Tong, who was still sitting on her chair.

Dong Xue's eyes flickered. She seemed to have understood something, but at the same time, she seemed to be confused.

When Yun Yang saw Dong Xue and Xia Yu, he was stunned.

Qiu Tong slowly stood up. She looked a little surprised, a little calm, but also a little uneasy.

Xiaoxue didn't know Dong Xue, but she was familiar with Xia Yu. She ran towards Xia Yu while jumping and shouting, "Big sister Xiao Yu, Auntie Xiao Yu."

Seeing Snowy running over, Xia Yu giggled as she held Snowy's hand. As she looked at my parents, she suddenly looked a little shy.

Mom and Dad looked at Dong Xue and Xia Yu with a puzzled expression. They looked at me, then looked at them, and said, "You guys." "Yes."

Dong Xue looked deeply at my parents with a complicated expression on her face, a little sad, a little disappointed, and a little relieved. She smiled, bowed to my parents, and said, "Uncle, Auntie, happy new year to you two. I'm Ke's... "Friend."

Xia Yu also hurriedly bowed to my parents, then said, "My uncle and aunt have a happy new year. I... I'm Yi Ke's... "Yi Ke's..."

Xia Yu stammered, but she couldn't continue. She looked at me, and my face turned cold. Xia Yu stuck out her tongue, rolled her eyes, and continued, "I'm also Yi Ke's … "Friend."

Mom greeted Dong Xue and Xia Yu warmly. "Hey — these two girls are so handsome, hehe. So you are all Ke's friends. Good, welcome. "Welcome to my house for the new year."
