"Then take it easy, if you need anything, just ask."

Seeing the little boy smiled, the waiter straightened up again, said something to the child's mother, and then walked away again.

……

"...Xiaoyao, let mom eat this piece of tofu, and I'll give Xiaoyao another piece of steamed meat."

The child's mother looked at her child, took out the tofu from the bowl in front of the little boy, and put the steamed meat with chopsticks back into the bowl in front of the little boy.

The little boy didn't respond, nor did he respond,

Holding the chopsticks in his hand, the little boy picked up the tamales with chopsticks from the dish on the table,

"Does Xiaoyao want to pick up the food by himself? Then Xiaoyao can do it by himself."

Hearing his mother's words, the little boy still didn't respond, and remained silent. After picking up the piece of tamales, he stood up from the seat, leaned forward, stretched out his hand with difficulty, and put the tamales on the chopsticks onto the table. On the opposite side, the newly added empty bowl was handed over,

"Xiao Yao..."

The boy's mother watched the little boy's movements and couldn't help shouting,

This time, the little boy turned his head, pursed his lips, and looked into his mother's eyes with stubbornness.

The child's mother looked at her child's eyes, and fell silent, saying nothing.

The little boy also turned his head, and continued to put the steamed meat with chopsticks into the empty bowl.

"...It's not that I like to eat, it's that grandpa likes to eat."

Withdrawing the chopsticks, the little boy said aloud.

"Xiao Yao is saying that grandpa likes to eat tamales, right?"

When the boy's mother heard that her child was willing to speak, she immediately echoed back.

The little boy didn't speak anymore, he just sat down on the seat again, with his head sullen, and started to eat.

"...It's okay, Xiaoyao doesn't want to talk, then we'll eat... Get hungry, Xiaoyao... Come on, drink some water, don't choke."

……

"...Squeak, squeak."

Beside, at the dining table, Lian Ge listened to the voices beside him, and ate the food.

The little white mouse squatting on its shoulders stood upright with its forelimbs, turned its head, and followed the food on Lian Ge's chopsticks with its eyes.

Hearing the sound, Lian Ge smiled slightly, without turning back, picked up a piece of bacon with chopsticks, and handed it to the little white mouse.

The little white mouse quickly stretched out its front paws, grabbed the piece of bacon, and started to chew.

Turning his gaze, Lian Ge turned to the side again, and looked at the table where the little boy and his mother were sitting.

……

"Xiao Yao, eat slowly, don't worry... have another drink."

At the dining table, the child's mother was still talking to her child, and she didn't move her chopsticks much, just looking after her child.

The little boy was still silent, just eating sullenly.

"...Xiao Yao, my father called back yesterday and discussed with my mother that we should let you, Xiao Yao, go with your parents to the city where your parents work, so that your parents can also take care of you."

Looking at her child, the child's mother was silent for a while, then said aloud,

The little boy paused for a while while eating, then moved faster and didn't speak.

"Yesterday you went to see the doctor with your mother and uncle also said that it would be better for Xiao Yao to change to a new environment... When you get there, Mom and Dad will find you a new school for Xiao Yao. At that time, Xiao Yao can I met a lot of new friends and classmates there, and Xiao Yao can play with him... In the place where my parents live, there are also some older sisters, older brothers, younger brothers and sisters who are around the same age as Xiao Yao. Go to and from school with them...

The school over there has a big playground and lawn, Xiao Yao can play football..."

The child's mother looked at her child and said little by little,

"...Xiao Yao, just go there with Mom and Dad, okay?"

"If Xiaoyao is willing to go, mother can buy a ticket today, and after a few days, she will complete the school transfer procedures for Xiaoyao, and mother can take Xiaoyao there directly."

Listening to his mother's words, the little boy ate faster and faster,

Immediately afterwards, he put down the bowls and chopsticks suddenly, stood up from the seat,

"...I'm not going, I'm not going anywhere!"

The little boy got emotional and shouted at his mother,

"I don't need your care! I don't need new friends! I don't need you either! Grandpa is here, I don't want to go anywhere, I don't want to go anywhere!"

The little boy got emotional,

In the restaurant, quiet again,

The child's mother pursed her lips, looked at her child, and remained silent.

……

"...Grandma, what's wrong with that brother?"

By the door of the restaurant, the little girl who was eating with her grandmother turned her head, looked at the little boy and his mother, and said timidly,

"It's okay, it's okay, that brother, I just miss his grandpa, let's eat, Tongtong..."

"Okay!" The little girl turned her head, looked at her grandma, smiled, and replied crisply.

Chapter 282 Don't be afraid

"Xiao Yao..."

The child's mother looked at her child with distress and self-blame in her eyes.

After getting up from the seat, squatting down again,

"Grandpa, he already..."

"You nonsense! Grandpa has always been here, he has been with me all the time, he won't leave! I don't want to go anywhere! I don't need you to take care of me. It's always me and grandpa, always... "

The little boy became more and more excited, roaring loudly, and at the same time broke away from his mother's hand,

"...Xiao Yao...I'm sorry..."

The hand that was pulled away paused, the child's mother looked at her child, opened her mouth, and finally just apologized,

"...Mom shouldn't just leave you and grandpa at home...I haven't been with you for so long, and I don't even know what you like to eat...I...I'm sorry..."

As she spoke, the eyes of the child's mother turned red.

"...Do you need some more food for you? I think the rice in Xiaoyao's bowl is almost finished?"

The waiter who came out of the kitchen, seeing this scene, hurried forward and interrupted.

"Thank you... please give Xiaoyao another bowl of rice."

The child's mother turned her head to the side, wiped her red eye sockets, said something to the waiter, then turned her head to look at her child,

"...Xiao Yao, let's eat first. After we finish eating, let's talk about it, okay?"

"Sister, make a bowl of rice for grandpa too." Like some kind of insistence, the little boy turned his head and looked at the waiter and said.

"I'm sorry to trouble you." After a pause, the child's mother turned back to the waiter and said,

After the waiter smiled at the child's mother, he turned his head to look at the little boy and responded,

"...Okay, Xiaoyao, my sister will bring you two bowls of rice, one for Xiaoyao and one for grandpa."

With that said, the waiter took the bowl and walked away again.

The little boy stood where he was, lowered his head again, and fell silent.

"...Xiao Yao, let's sit down and finish the meal first, shall we?"

The child's mother stood up again, her eyes were still red, and said in a helpless tone.

Hearing this, the little boy fell silent again, raised his head, turned his head to look at his mother, fell silent, and sat down on the seat again.

……

"Come on, Xiao Yao, this is a meal for you, and this is for grandpa."

The waiter came back again and placed two bowls of rice in front of the little boy, opposite to the dining table.

"I'm sorry to trouble you..." After thanking the waiter, the child's mother turned her head back and looked at her child.

"Xiao Yao, come on, how about another piece of tamales?"

"... Mom tasted a piece just now, and it was really delicious. If Xiao Yao didn't eat it, Mom would finish it."

With a smile on her face, the child's mother said as lightly as possible.

The little boy also picked up the chopsticks again, but he didn't respond to his mother's words. He just stuck the chopsticks in the bowl without saying a word, eating bit by bit, but kept looking at the other side of the table.

In front of the empty seat, there was the bowl of rice, and next to the bowl of rice, the chopsticks on the side of the table.

……

At the table next to him, Lian Ge glanced at the little boy, then at the bowl of rice and the pair of chopsticks opposite him,

The rice is overflowing with steam, and the chopsticks are placed quietly,

After a pause, Lian Ge looked away and continued to eat the food on the table, listening to the lingering sounds.

……

And the little boy looked at the bowl of rice and the pair of chopsticks, his eyes gradually lowered, and he became more and more silent.

He just sat down and ate his meal.

"Xiao Yao... Come, drink some water, don't choke... Come, mom will get you another piece of tamales..."

Inside the restaurant, it seemed that only the voice of the child's mother lingered.

……

"...waiter, please settle the bill."

"I'm coming……"

"How about it, does it still suit your taste?"

"What does Tongtong think?"

"good to eat!"

"Well, Na Tongtong thinks it's delicious, and grandma thinks it's delicious too..."

At the table by the door of the restaurant, the old lady and her granddaughter stood up,

After bending down and saying something to her granddaughter, the old lady turned around again and looked at the waiter.

……

Inside the restaurant, at the corner,

As if hearing the words of the old lady and her granddaughter, the little boy who was eating sullenly raised his head and looked at the old lady and her granddaughter in a daze.

"...Xiao Yao," on the side, the boy's mother followed her child's gaze and looked over,

"...Xiao Yao misses grandpa, right?"

Looking at the old lady and her granddaughter, and then turning back to look at her own child, the boy's mother asked aloud,

The boy didn't respond, but just kept watching, while the boy's mother, after a pause, reached out and stroked her child's hair.

This time, it seemed that he was in a trance, and the little boy didn't break free...

……

"how much?"

"38 in total."

By the door of the restaurant, at the dining table, the old lady groped around after asking,

From the belt of the trousers, a purse sewn inside was pulled out. The old lady groped and pulled out a few coins from the purse.

"Here." Putting the purse back, the old lady held the money and handed it to the waiter.
