Chapter 96 You Are My Joy in This Life

"Master, I told you to have breakfast first, I have something else to do." After carefully admiring Li Xinxi's cute appearance in the picture book, Chen Mu stretched without haste.

"Little bastard, the food is cold before you open the door." The uncle knocked on the door a little louder.

"Boom boom boom——"

Hearing the uncle's knocking on the door more and more quickly, Chen Mu now doubted that if he didn't open the door again, the uncle would knock the door down.

After all, this bad old man has always been very stubborn.

"Here we come—" Pulling on the slippers and opening the door, Chen Mu met the suspicious gaze of the uncle.

"Stand here and don't move—" He looked down at Chen Mu's toes twice, and the uncle's tone became more severe.

"Oh—" Seeing the uncle's abnormal appearance, Chen Mu just stood there and scratched his head.

The white-haired old man walked around Chen Mu's bedroom half-bowed, glanced at the waste paper in the trash can beside the bed, and then at the wonderful poster blatantly pasted on the wall, his gaze stayed for two more seconds.

Seeing that nothing unusual was found, the bad old man finally stopped in front of the desk, rubbed his chin and looked at the pictures in the picture book.

"Well, little bastard, come here." The uncle greeted Chen Mu twice with a smile.

"Papa papa papa—"

As usual, he was sitting in front of the desk with his slippers on, without a serious look.

"Little bastard, you have been muttering about ghosts in the room just now, are you drawing pictures?"

In a word.

The uncle pointed to the ghostly picture of a woman in red on the fourth page of the picture book.

There is a strong contrast between the dark background and the bright red tones. The tall woman with exquisite makeup is holding an umbrella and bowing, as if she is going to take off the pair of small shoes on her white ankles, but what is vaguely reflected in the puddles under the umbrella is a A pale face.

"Hiss—" Seeing such a terrifying picture, Chen Mu gasped in fright.

After gathering his composure, he realized that this must be a masterpiece of a painter, so he used this as a cover for himself, and hurriedly forced a smile.

"Grandpa, I was indeed drawing just now. Look at this painting, isn't it scary?"

"I don't need to be scary, this leg is quite good." The uncle smacked his lips twice, and his eyes shifted to Chen Mu.

"I remember, little brat, you were most afraid of these things when you were young. Others are afraid of wind, rain and thunder, but you are even afraid of sunny days. Why are you still drawing these things now?"

"Ahem, ahem, the main thing is not to draw these things." Chen Mu coughed twice in embarrassment, and opened the picture book to the third page.

But just after completing this action, Chen Mu's heart was instantly filled with regret.

There is no doubt that this wave of active exposure cannot be saved.

Sure enough, just as Chen Mu turned to the page of the yellow umbrella in the rain, the uncle stretched out his hand to stop Chen Mu from turning the page, and stared blankly at the girl in the painting.

"Tsk tsk-"

There was a series of smacking sounds from the uncle's mouth, and it didn't stop until Chen Mushao's ears were slightly red.

"This—is that little girl you were looking for?" The uncle looked at Chen Mu with a look of relief in his eyes.

For a while, Chen Mu didn't even know what to say.

When the old man with cloudy eyes got closer to see the picture clearly, Chen Mu touched his nose and choked out a sentence.

"That... what do you think, sir?"

"How is it?", the uncle squinted his eyes and looked at the picture in the rain.

"It feels... not so good."

"I see that the butt is not big, so it's not easy to give birth." The uncle's tone was a little affirmative.

???

"..."

Chen Mu didn't know what to say.

The words changed.

"However, it looks really cute. Look at the way this little mouth is pursed. Your uncle likes it."

"Well, when will you bring the little girl home to have a look?" After saying that, the uncle winked at Chen Mu.

"Next time... definitely next time." Chen Mu could only reply weakly.

"Then you have to hurry up, your uncle's body won't last for a few years." The uncle looked away from the painting and looked at the continuous light rain outside the window.

"The rain these days has been really annoying, making it impossible to play the labor-management card, and I don't know when it will be sunny."

"Master... the weather forecast says it will be light rain this week." Chen Mu took a sigh of relief and closed the picture book.

Fortunately, I didn't let the uncle see the second page, otherwise, according to the uncle's hooliganism, it would definitely involve talking about marriage.

"Speaking of Tianqing, little bastard, you always liked to draw big suns when you were young." The uncle's tone was a little lighter, as if he had fallen into a long memory.

"Although the paintings are ugly every time, it's hard to compare with your current level." The bad old man added calmly, which made Chen Mu hesitate to speak.

Seeing Chen Mu slowly put the picture book into the desk drawer, the uncle paused.

"I remember, little bastard, you liked drawing the most when you were young, but I haven't seen you drawing in these years."

"Ten years have passed in a blink of an eye. You kid is wearing a pair of crotch pants and holding that ugly painting, and you still remember the way you said you would be a great painter in the future."

"Painter... Well." Chen Mu smacked his mouth twice.

"Speaking of it, this seems to be my dream when I was a child, dream..." Chen Mu lowered his tone again when talking about this word.

"Master, is that painting still available?"

"Can't find it."

"pity."

"Hahaha, you little bastard who lied to you." Seeing that Chen Mu was stupefied by himself, the uncle smiled very proudly.

"Your uncle is still locked in the box for that painting on a sunny day. According to you scholars, this seems to be some kind of debut work, ahem..."

After all, the uncle glanced under the desk calmly.

"Still growing up..."

What I have to admit is that even if you give the uncle a tractor, he can help you drive directly to the high speed.

Realizing that the uncle meant something, Chen Mu straightened his body and quickly took up the topic.

"Master, where's the painting? I want to take another look..."

"You can find it if you look for it, but it's probably hard to turn it over. At first, I planned to use it to expose your faults when you marry a wife." The uncle's eyeballs rolled twice treacherously.

"..."

To be honest, if it wasn't his uncle, Chen Mu wouldn't want to say a word to such a bad old man at all.

"But now it seems that I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for you to marry a wife."

"Cough cough cough..."

After finishing the sentence, the uncle coughed intermittently, and Chen Mu quickly got up and patted the back for the uncle to comfort him.

"It's okay, uncle, I guess it's too early to marry a wife."

"It's early? How early?" Hearing this, the uncle immediately stopped coughing and turned to look at the boy behind him.

Chen Mu immediately responded with an embarrassed smile.

My heart has already started to complain crazily.

Bad old man!You must have been pretending to be pitiful just now!You must be pretending to be pitiful!

"Probably just these few years." Glancing at the smug expression on the uncle's face, Chen Mu collected himself and let out a soft breath.

"Just these few years?"

"Well, just two or three years."

"What did you say, little brat?" The uncle's tone suddenly became a little heavier.

"I said it's only two or three years. When the time comes, we'll hold a wedding first, and we'll talk about other things later."

???

The uncle no longer pretended to cough, but scratched his head in confusion.

"I said, what's going on in your head, little brat?"

"..."

"Grandpa, didn't you say that you don't have a good life for a few years? She should... too." When Chen Mu said this, his tone was extremely flat.

"She should... too?", the uncle repeated this sentence several times, and then began to circle behind Chen Mu.

"Grandpa, do you think I'm talking nonsense..." Seeing the uncle's expression of doubt about life, Chen Mu clenched his fists and continued to add.

"She thinks so too, as for other things, she can communicate slowly."

"Where are the parents?"

"She seems to have only one older sister, but..."

"That's enough, you only have one uncle." This time, before Chen Mu finished speaking, the uncle quickly picked up the words.

behind it.

The voice of the uncle who was walking slowly was a little weaker, as if he had fallen into a long memory.

"Little bastard, I don't think you're talking nonsense, after all, your uncle was..."

"It seems that I have to leave something for you kid, and I can't donate all of it..."

"I think so..."

"Little bastard, you have kindness!!!"

After a few words, the bad old man left with his back carelessly, and slammed the door of Chen Mu's room heavily.

"The way you slam the door—how do you look like an old man?"

"I don't know who I learned from..." Chen Mu shook his head helplessly, and opened the picture book to the fourth page again.

The original dark and terrifying picture has disappeared, replaced by a short line of evaluation.

This is a mottled and unclear picture of the old man's heart. He seems to have many regrets, but in the end all of them are forgotten in the long river of time...

Sorry...?

After muttering this word several times, Chen Mu immediately closed the picture book, imitating the appearance of a little squirrel, smiling and resting his cheeks on the window sill.

"The sky will be sunny one day, and miracles will definitely happen, but this time... there will be no more regrets."

As if thinking of the cute look of the girl in the yellow dress with dimpled smiles, the boy's tone was gentle again.

"After all, Li Xinxi, you are my joy in this life."
