Sugar Jar [Rebirth]

After Xi Xin washed her hands, the two returned to the dinner table again.

Because I was taught a lesson just now, the little furball looks a lot better. It just stops at Xi Xin's feet and circles around him. From time to time, he looks down at the chicken breast on the small bowl next to him, but he doesn't intend to eat. .

Xi Xin took a bite of the steamed stuffed bun, felt a movement at her feet, and looked down curiously.

"Meow." Yuanyuan's voice sounded weak.

Xi Xin was a little worried, and asked Shi Chen, "Is it sick?"

Shi Chen glanced at it, "It looks quite energetic, don't worry." It's just that he just got a scolding and wanted to act coquettishly and pretend to be pitiful.

Seeing Yuanyuan's appearance, Shi Chen felt more and more powerless. He really couldn't figure out why this kitten was so cunning, and he didn't know who influenced him to do things all day long. .

Xi Xin was still worried, and looked at it worriedly.

He was about to say something when he saw a deep-fried dough stick was put in the bowl.

Shi Chen looked at him helplessly, and sighed: "Eat it quickly, it will be fine after a while."

Noticing Shi Chen's warning eyes, Yuanyuan's hair stood up, stood up straight with some vigilance, and raised his small head to look at him.

Afterwards, he was finally defeated by someone's gaze, and obediently ate the contents of the bowl.

Seeing that it was finally willing to eat, Xi Xin felt relieved and continued to bite the unfinished meat bun.

When he eats, he always likes to take small bites, and after several bites, he slowly stuffs it into his mouth, so every time he bites something, his cheeks will be bulging, looking like a little squirrel .

Shi Chen reached out and touched his bulging cheek, it was soft and nice to the touch.

The movement of Xi Xin's hands paused, and she turned her head slowly, accusing his behavior with her eyes.

After he swallowed everything in his mouth, he protested to Shi Chen: "Don't move your hands and feet when you eat."

Shi Chen didn't respond to this sentence, but instead served him a small bowl of porridge, and said with a smile, "Eat it, I boiled it myself."

He emphasized the word "self" in his words, which sounded like he was asking for credit.

Xi Xin looked at the small bowl in front of her, bowed her head in response, then took a mouthful with a spoon and put it in her mouth. Before she could really taste the taste, she saw Shi Chen staring at him expectantly.

He nodded lightly, "Delicious."

Xi Xin then lowered her head, and slowly stirred the millet porridge in the bowl with a spoon, then took a breath, and did not put the porridge into her mouth again until she felt that it was not too hot.

With his words of affirmation, Shi Chen only felt that today's exhaustion was dispelled by these words, and even the disheveled little furball next to him seemed much more pleasing to the eye at this moment.

When Xi Xin finally finished his breakfast and wanted to clean up the dishes, Shi Chen stopped him in advance, and quickly said, "I'll come, I'll come!"

He was very active in trying to take over this matter.

Xi Xin's hands paused for a while, and she looked up at him in puzzlement, as if asking, so you know how to wash dishes?

Shi Chen couldn't help but want to tell him that he can not only wash dishes, but also clothes.

When he was recuperating in the village in his previous life, he learned almost everything.

Xi Xin couldn't resist him, so she had no choice but to go with Shi Chen.

The kitten also finished eating the meat in the small bowl, stood up slowly, followed Xi Xin, and watched Shi Chen wash the dishes together with him.

The eyes of one person and one cat seemed to be full of curiosity.

Xi Xin was surprised that Shi Chen knew so many things, but Yuanyuan didn't understand what he was doing.

The time in the morning was surprisingly comfortable.

At noon, Xi Xin's parents still haven't come back. Although there is no habit of going out to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the first lunar month, there are not many relatives in their family, so they don't have to live every day of the first month like other people. Lulu, I just need to accompany my mother back to her natal home on the second day of junior high school.

Xi Xin made a ball with a red coil, then put it on the ground, watched Yuanyuan grab it with his claws, thought for a while, then took a small rag next to it, and shook it in front of the kitten.

The round cat pupils stared at the thing, and the little head followed it. When it was about to stand up and throw the rags in its hand, Xi Xin smiled and moved the thing away.

He rolled his eyes and smiled, looking very happy.

Shi Chen watched from the side, and then gave him a candy.

Xi Xin took the candy and whispered, "Thank you."

Because he had to disassemble the surface of the candy, he didn't care about what was in his hand, so he had to put the small rag aside, and then peeled off the surface bit by bit with his hands.

Not long after, Yuanyuan seemed to sense something, and looked outside vigilantly.

Shi Chen also looked outside the door if he had a feeling.

The boy's calm voice came from outside, "You guys wait here."

Then there was a neat answer.

Xi Xin heard a familiar voice and subconsciously looked over.

But at this moment, a tall and straight young man walked in, the eyes of the two happened to meet, and Shi Lin nodded slightly to him.

Xi Xin called out in surprise: "Young Master?"

Seeing him, Shi Chen understood the purpose of his elder brother's visit this time, he got up and called out: "Brother."

"Mother asked me to take you home." He explained to his younger brother, and then looked at Xi Xin, "Happy Chinese New Year."

The candy in Xi Xin's mouth hadn't been swallowed completely, he quickly crushed the thing, swallowed it in one gulp, and then said to Shi Lin: "Happy Chinese New Year, young master."

Shi Lin glanced into the room, and his eyes gradually fell on the kitten next to the two of them. He seemed to have thought of something, his eyes flashed complicated for a moment, but soon returned to their usual calmness.

Xi Xin looked at him, and then at Shi Chen, both of them seemed to have fallen silent, he felt that the atmosphere was a bit weird at this moment, just at this moment, the kitten's voice sounded at the right time, finally breaking the dull atmosphere.

Shi Chen approached him, looked down at Xi Xin, and smiled, "I have to go back, Xi Xin, see you on Yuan Festival."

Xi Xin nodded, and responded softly: "You go."

Seeing that his eyes were full of sincerity, Shi Chen didn't feel any reluctance for what he was about to go back to, Shi Chen wanted to laugh in his heart, but he couldn't help feeling a little bitter.

He pinched Xi Xin's nose, and confessed in a warm voice: "Your parents are not here, so just stay at home obediently and wait for them to come back, do you understand?"

A little red dot appeared on Xi Xin's nose soon, he let out a "huh", stretched out his hand to cover his nose, raised his head and looked at Shi Chen: "Got it."

Shi Chen gave Yuanyuan part of his attention, and it seemed to sense that they were leaving, so it stuck to Xi Xin's feet very reluctantly, and leaned softly against Xi Xin's legs and feet with its whole body.

He said softly: "During the two days you left, this little guy hasn't eaten or slept in peace, so let him stay here with you."

"Okay," Xi Xin reassured, her eyes brightened slightly upon hearing these words, "I will take good care of it."

Shi Chen finally couldn't help laughing, he said: "It's enough for you to take care of yourself."

Thinking that he was going back home, but this silly little guy could stay here with Xi Xin, Shi Chen felt a little unfair, he sighed secretly, and when he looked at Xi Xin, his eyes were still full of warmth.

Xi Xin doesn't have so many sorrows, joys and sorrows in her heart. Spending the New Year with her family is a matter of course.

Shi Lin looked at them quietly, and waited until the two of them had finished talking before he said: "Mother is still waiting for us at the mansion, let's go back."

He moved his eyes away lightly.

Shi Chen looked at Xi Xin, smiled and waved to him as farewell.

Xi Xin quickly put down her hand and waved happily at him.

Shi Chen murmured silently in his heart, little heartless, do you just hope for him to go back?

He sighed again, and then walked out of the house.

Shi Lin didn't leave with him. After thinking about it, he walked up to Xi Xin, took out a small object from his pocket, and handed it to Xi Xin, "Return the gift."

Xi Xin took it over, looked at the small bell in her hand, and shook it curiously, and the small silver bell immediately made a crisp sound.

"This is?" he asked puzzled.

Shi Lin explained: "At the end of the year, you gave me a jar of candy. This is a gift in return."

Seeing that Xi Xin seemed to want to say something else, Shi Lin added: "Take it, it's not something valuable."

Hearing that it was not expensive, Xi Xin accepted it with confidence.

There was also a smile in Shi Lin's eyes.

Someone knocked lightly on the wooden door, Shi Chen stood by the door, leaning against the wooden door, and asked with a half-smile: "Brother, can we go?"

It was Shi Lin who urged him to go back to the mansion when he came, but now he has changed his position.

When Shi Chen looked back, he saw Xi Xin staring at them intently, as if he was going to send them outside the village, and he said: "No need to send them away, you and Yuanyuan can stay here."

Xi Xin nodded in agreement.

His gaze went down, and then fell on the longevity lock hanging on Xi Xin's neck. Ever since he gave the things to Xi Xin, he seemed to have been seeing him hanging on his body.

Thinking of this, Shi Chen's mood improved a lot.

"When you come back, you will see a room full of sugar." He said to Xi Xin.

Xi Xin's eyes were bent into crescents, and she nodded again, "En!"

Although there was no need to send them out, Xi Xin still hugged the kitten and watched them leave the house, standing at the door for a long time.

Xi Xin gently lifted the kitten up, and suddenly remembered that she hadn't said blessings to it, and said softly, "Yuanyuan, happy new year."

What answered him was a little kiss from the little furball.
