fool around

Mr. Si Yu, the great preparatory people's teacher, said that there are no Alibaba thieves in the world. They are all made up by Mr. Si to make children happy. There are only master thieves who steal children's milk.

When Si Yu saw the thermos cup and Qi Lu's abnormal behavior, he pushed the ins and outs of the situation. He suppressed a smile, took the cup from Qi Lu's hand, and shook it by his ear. It was really light inside, a little No weight at all.

He winked meaningfully and said, "It seems that milk is very popular."

Qi Lu was expressionless, with his hands behind his back, he gave a faint "hmm" and emphasized: "Xiaofu likes it very much."

He also specially added the accent on the word "Xiaofu", as if he was afraid that Si Yu would misunderstand.

Si Yuxu clenched his fists to his lips, a smile appeared in his eyes, he felt that Qi Lu's awkward and concealed appearance was inexplicably cute, so he asked a bit jokingly: "Does Mr. Qi also like to drink milk?"

Qi Lu's expression changed slightly, he subconsciously nodded, and then shook his head again.

"General," Qi Lu stood up straight, his shirt was meticulous, without any extra folds, and his tone was like a barrister making a court statement, adding solemnly, "I don't like it very much."

Si Yu burst out laughing with a "puchi", bent his eyes and said, "I'm not teasing you!"

His tone was too intimate, which made Qi Lu didn't know how to respond. His fingers curled up slightly behind his back, and his throat felt a little itchy.

Si Yu raised his empty cup: "Don't worry, I won't tell others, Mr. Qili Baba."

His last address was said in a breathy voice, almost inaudible, the ending sound mixed with the breath, and it fluttered away immediately after touching Qi Lu's ear.

Qi Lu not only had an itchy throat, but also his earlobes, cheeks, neck, palms...everywhere was itchy, like a small electric current crawling from the soles of his feet all over his body, and there was an uncontrollable numbness wherever it passed.

"Don't scratch me." He took a step back, frowned slightly, and said unconsciously.

"What?" Si Yu didn't understand, stepped forward half a step, and asked with a smile.

"It's nothing."

Qi Lu dodged his eyes, raised his hand to put on his cloak and hood, and hurriedly turned and left after dropping three words.

Si Yu weighed the empty cup in his hand, leaned against the door, watched Qi Lu's flustered footsteps with his eyes, and the smile in his eyes was clear and gentle.

After Xiao Fu finished his morning call, he drove his tractor rumbling over from the other side of the bridge, and saw Si Yu and the thermos cup he was holding in his hand from a distance. Jumped onto the lawn and ran over with fists clenched.

Si Yu knelt down to catch the little guy who rushed over, straightened his little hat, and said, "Why are you sweating, have you sunburned yet?"

Xiao Fu grabbed Qi Lu's arm and asked anxiously, "Brother! Did you catch Alibaba!"

Si Yu shook his head regretfully, sighed, and said, "No, let him escape."

Xiao Fu opened his mouth and said "ah" in a low voice, held Si Yu's face and kissed him, and said, "It must be that Ali Baba is too powerful, brother and master can catch him next time!"

The little guy was obviously very depressed, but he turned to comfort him first.Si Yu squeezed Xiaofu's face, picked up the little guy and walked into the house: "It's okay, brother has a lot of milk, I'll make you another cup."

Xiao Fu put his arms around Si Yu's neck, shook his short legs, and said childishly, "I want a scrambled egg!"

"Add another small green vegetable?"

"Good!" Xiaofu cheered loudly.

Lin Mubai heard Si Yu's sound of firing, and the photosynthesis stopped, so he came over to grab a meal.

Si Yu was frying noodles in the kitchen, a cypress demon and a bat demon were sitting facing each other on the dining table, and a little dog was chasing the tip of its tail under the table.

Xiao Fu knocked on the table with his small iron spoon to play, knocked once and looked at Lin Mubai, knocked once and looked at it, knocked again and looked at it again... No matter how thick Lin Mubai is, he can't stand the wet, cute and cute little guy. With aggressive eyes, a rare tinge of red appeared on his dark skin, and he asked Xiaofu, "Why do you keep looking at me!"

Xiaofu raised his hand holding the little spoon, and shouted loudly: "Xiaofu likes Brother Xiaobai!"

Lin Shubai, who was 1.8 meters tall, almost rolled off the chair.

"You, what are you doing?"

Little Fu bit the small iron spoon, shook his head and said, "My brother taught Xiaofu, if you like someone, tell him!"

"Oh..." Lin Mubai was stunned for a moment, then he became shy belatedly, and replied falteringly, "I, I like Xiaofu too."

"Brother!" Xiaofu kicked his legs excitedly and shouted to the kitchen, "Brother Xiaobai also likes Xiaofu!"

Si Yu heard the whole process in the kitchen, he came out with a pot of delicious fried noodles, and said with a smile: "I heard, who wouldn't like Xiaofu?"

The little guy was so beautiful that he covered his face with two chubby palms, and two black grape-like eyes appeared from between his fingers. He asked Xiao Mao at the bottom of the table: "Xiao Fu likes Xiao Mao, does Xiao Mao like Xiao Fu?"

Xiao Mao ignored him at all, and continued chasing the tail in circles foolishly.

"What did Xiao Mao say?" Si Yu asked, stuffing two tissues into Xiao Fu's collar as a bib.

Xiao Fu tilted his head and thought for a while, then said seriously: "Xiao Mao said that he also likes Xiao Fu!"

Si Yu was amused by the serious look of the little guy, and Lin Mubai was also amused.

At the dinner table, Xiaofu told Lin Mubai about the bizarre milk disappearance case. Lin Mubai said how could there be thieves in the village, Xiaofu vowed that there were, if you don’t believe me, ask your brother!

Si Yu was nibbling a broccoli, when suddenly two pairs of eyes stared at him, he swallowed a mouthful of water, nodded to Lin Mubai: "I testify, yes."

"Yes!" Xiaofu patted the table, "But Ali Baba is very powerful, my brother didn't catch him this time, and he will be caught next time."

"Damn it!" Lin Mubai gritted his teeth, dropped his chopsticks and rushed out, "There is someone stealing things in the village, we must find them out!"

Si Yu: "..."

Before he had time to speak, Lin Mubai ran out the door with the skateboard in one hand and Xiaomao in the other.Si Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he raised a finger to his mouth, made a "shh" gesture, and said to Xiao Fu in a low voice: "Qi Li... don't tell others about Alibaba."

Xiaofu blinked, and was taken aback by Si Yu's mysterious appearance, and asked in a low voice, "Why?"

"Be careful to scare the snake." Si Yu said.

Xiao Fu opened his mouth, and his expression became more puzzled.

Si Yu Fue, he was chewing some idioms with a five-year-old kid, and then explained: "If everyone knows about Alibaba's milk stealing, Alibaba will not dare to come again. How can we catch him?"

Xiao Fu nodded half-understood: "Don't scare Alibaba away."

"Yes," Si Yu patted the back of the little guy's head, not knowing whether to tell Xiao Fu or to himself, "Take your time, or you will scare him away."

Xiaofu asked, "Is Alibaba timid?"

"Hmm...not really," Si Yu thought for a while and replied, "He is very careful and prudent."

Xiaofu then asked: "Does my brother already know who Alibaba is?"

Si Yu lightly poked the little tomato on the plate with his chopsticks, nodded and said, "Yes, but my brother is still considering whether to catch him or not."

"Why why!" Xiaofu asked loudly, "Don't you want to catch him!"

"I think a little bit, but I'm also a little scared." Si Yu replied.

"Do you think more than you are afraid, or do you fear more than you think?" Xiaofu asked, waving a small iron spoon.

Si Yu rested his chin on one hand, not knowing how to answer this question.

Children's questions are always simple and to the point. He clearly knows that he wants to get closer to Qi Lu, and even closer, but Qi Lu seems to be covered in a layer of mist. He takes a step forward, and Qi Lu becomes The more blurred it was, the stronger his desire to see the whole picture of Qi Lu clearly.

But he is also afraid, afraid that the water vapor is too thick, the fog is too heavy, and that there are sharp knives hidden behind the provocative haze.

After Si Yu pondered for a while, he pointed to the refrigerator and said to Xiaofu, "If Ali Baba is the ice in the refrigerator, my brother will freeze him if he catches him. What do Xiaofu think?"

It was the first time for the little guy to be so solemnly asked for advice by an adult, so he puffed his chest and frowned in a dignified analysis: "But if you don't catch Alibaba, brother will always be unhappy! I know! Brother First melt Ali Baba with hot milk, and Ali Baba becomes hot water, so my brother doesn’t have to be frozen!”

The slippery little tomatoes rolled away from the tip of the chopsticks, and Si Yu's chopsticks poked empty space. His hands stiffened, and he lowered his head and laughed after a while.

Xiaofu asked nervously: "Is what Xiaofu said wrong?"

Si Yu lowered his head and said nothing. After a long time, he raised his head again and said to the little guy with the corners of his lips hooked: "No. It's because my brother is too stupid. I haven't figured out such a simple truth after thinking about it for a long time. .”

Xiaofu applauded happily.

Near noon, Si Yu received a call from a stranger, saying that they were called by Teacher Fan to deliver something, and they would be at the entrance of the village soon, so he asked Si Yu to come out and pick it up.

Si Yu casually asked how many things there were, and the other side replied that there were as many as a truckload.

Si Yu: "...Okay, brother, please wait a moment, I'll be right there."

He went out and wanted to ask Lin Mubai for help, but he searched around the house but found no one. He probably went to the village to catch thieves from house to house.

He sighed, and wanted to ask Xiaolu and Lin Xiaoping for help, but if he really couldn't find anyone, he had to make a few more trips by himself, moving back one after another.

Si Yu went back to the house and put on his big backpack, walked a few steps to the bridge and then backed away, his eyes stayed on the cool black tractor beside the bridge.

He Mosuo thought for a while with his chin, a one-seater tractor with a cart attached to the back, can it pull a lot of goods in one trip?

Si Yu told himself that this was a matter of business, and that he was a teacher in the village, so it was very understandable to requisition the villagers' tractors for business.

Even if he has selfish intentions towards the owner of the tractor, wouldn't it be nice to do private affairs in public?

He easily persuaded himself without any psychological struggle. He walked to the door of Room 43 with big strides, and he gave up just as soon as he raised his hand.

——Forget it, let’s just run a few more times by ourselves!If Qi Lu rejects him, wouldn't it be embarrassing?

Just as Si Yu was about to turn around and leave, Xiaofu's "melting ice cube theory" came to mind.

——No, if the first step of turning theory into practice fails like this, wouldn't he be worse than a child?

Si Yu took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to knock on the iron door.

After more than ten seconds, the iron door slowly opened, and Qi Lu, who was dressed in black, stood inside the door with an indifferent expression: "Teacher Si, what's the matter?"

Si Yu nodded and said, "Well... Bureau Fan sent me a carload of stuff, can you trouble Mr. Qi to drive me to pick it up?"

"No." Qi Lu closed the door without hesitation.

"Wait!" Si Yu propped up the door frame, leaned half his body into the crack of the door, blinked playfully, and said, "If Teacher Qi refuses to agree, I will tell everyone the story of the stolen milk last night."

Qi Lu raised his eyebrows with interest, and asked, "Mr. Si is negotiating terms with me?"

"No," Si Yu's heart was beating fast, he licked his dry lips, and said softly, "I'm threatening Mr. Qi."

Qi Lu shook his head, and let out a low laugh from his slightly raised lips.

"Answer or not?" Si Yu bent his eyes and boldly tugged at the sleeves of Qi Lu's wide cloak, "Mr. Qili Baba."
