Nocturnal

Chapter 40

Li Yedu also saw the envelope and frowned, trying to suppress the displeasure in his heart, "I'll go with you."

Qin Mochi thought for a while, "No need. There are too many people going, but I can't make a fool of myself. I'll just take my uncle with me. The uncle's cultivation is already a demon king, a little spirit, and it's nothing in front of it. Can't make flowers."

Qing Ning, who was looking in the mirror, heard this sentence, snorted, and raised her neck high.

Li Yedu glanced at it in disgust. He also knew that Qin Mochi, a junior uncle, should be quite powerful, but what's the use of being powerful?It hasn't been in the city for hundreds of years, and it doesn't understand anything, so it's really unreliable.Li Yedu decided that the top priority is to popularize all kinds of knowledge of modern life for it.For example, go to Xinhua Bookstore and buy a few wall charts for children to learn to read and show it back, such as TV sets, washing machines, microwave ovens, traffic lights when crossing the road, sidewalks when walking, etc...

"It's okay." Qin Mochi guessed what he was thinking by looking at his troubled expression, "I'll take it to watch TV more, go out more, and soon understand everything."

Li Yedu raised his eyebrows slightly, with a disbelieving expression on his face.

Qin Mochi smiled helplessly, "Didn't you say you want to go back to see your second senior brother?"

Li Yedu remembered that he still had to ask Nakun about the fragrance of peach blossoms in the "Qiankun Realm", and his face became more and more entangled, "Okay, remember to go and see the walnuts when you have time in two days."

Hearing what he said, Qin Mochi suddenly felt like walnuts, but he has to take his junior uncle to familiarize himself with the environment today, he has to go home tomorrow, and he has to go to Zhao Qing's appointment, so he can only postpone it regretfully, " I'll go to see the walnuts the day after tomorrow, is it convenient?"

Li Yedu nodded slightly, "I'll wait for you."

All he wanted to say was to wait for him at home the day after tomorrow.But for some reason, these three words were spoken by him in that slightly hoarse voice, as if they had other meanings.

Qin Mochi lowered his head to savor this feeling, it seems... not bad.

He raised his head and looked seriously into Li Yedu's eyes, seeing his own figure shrunk in his pupils, and suddenly smiled, "I'll treat you to dinner after these things are done."

Li Yedu's eyes widened, and his breathing paused subtly.

Qin Mochi stuffed the car keys into his hand, pushed his shoulders and walked out, "Remember to tell Walnut that I will go to see it the day after tomorrow and bring it something delicious."

Li Yedu was obediently pushed out by him, with a smile in his eyes, like pampering a naughty child.

Looking at this scene from the mirror, Qing Ning felt an inexplicable sense of crisis.Well done, why does the kid surnamed Li act like a baby with his nephew?Is he jealous because he spends all his time with me?Qing Ning was slightly taken aback, could it be that this kid wants to become a Taoist partner with his little nephew?

Qing Ning began to seriously consider this possibility.

Qin Mochi watched Li Yedu enter the elevator, and when he turned around and came back, he saw Qingning nestled in front of the mirror with a pensive face, his hairy face seemed quite serious.

Qin Mochi walked over, stretched out a finger and lightly touched Qingning's little wings, "Little Master? What are you thinking?"

Qing Ning looked at him, "It's nothing. I was thinking about what to have for dinner."

Qin Mochi, "..."

Qing Ning flapped her wings, jumped onto Qin Mochi's shoulder and looked around, "Didn't the kid surnamed Li go downstairs just now? What was he doing there?"

Seeing that it pointed to the direction of the elevator, Qin Mochi patiently explained, "That's an elevator. An elevator is a ladder that will automatically take you up and down. For example, I live on the twelfth floor. It takes several minutes to climb the stairs. It's almost there. Let's go, I'll take you to experience it." When he went upstairs just now, because he was worried that there would be too many people in the shopping mall, and fearing that he might startle his uncle, Qin Mochi put it in his coat and carried it up.

Qing Ning was in high spirits, "Go downstairs and have a look first."

"Okay," Qin Mochi said, "Let's take this to go downstairs, and then go to the other side of the mall to take the sightseeing elevator. The sightseeing elevator is transparent, so you can see how the elevator goes up and down."

Qin Mochi originally just wanted to educate the bumpkins who had just entered the city about common public facilities in modern society, but he never thought that Qing Ning was just a child. He refused to come out of the elevator, going up and down again and again. It wasn't until Qin Mochi lied that he was urgent to urinate, and couldn't hold it anymore, that Qingning reluctantly followed him home.

After entering the door, he visited all the rooms one by one, asked countless questions during the period, and then followed Qin Mochi into the workshop.Tomorrow Qin Mochi will go to Xia's old house first, he has been away from home for too long, but going to see Xia Zhenghe is a bit unreasonable.Xia Zhi and Lin Tang also knew that he was back, and they agreed to go there together tomorrow.Qin Mochi took out the gift he had prepared before, so as not to forget to bring it in a panic tomorrow morning.

The last time I brought back a few pieces of jadeite from Yangjiazhuang, one of them had the three colors of fortune, wealth and longevity, not only full of water, but also very beautiful in color.Qin Mochi was reluctant to sell it, so he carefully separated it, carved a pair of safety plaques for one part, and prepared to give it to Xia Zhi and Lin Tang, and carved the remaining part the size of a duck egg into the handle of the old birthday star, which happened to be given to Xia Zhenghe.

He was taking things from the safe, and Qing Ning was bouncing around on his workbench to have fun by himself, seeing a lot of bits and pieces of matching beads in a glass box on the side, and curiously moved over to pick them. Pull it out, and pull out a small black and bulging stone from the inside.

"Huh?" Qing Ning was surprised, "Why do you have this thing?"

Qin Mochi turned his head and saw that Qingning's claws just happened to pull out an unremarkable small stone from a pile of colorful matching beads.The size of half a longan, the color is not too gray, it looks familiar.

Qin Mochi laughed, "I don't know where it came from, it seems to be at home all the time."

Qing Ning's expression was very serious, "This is the Ge Lingshi. If you have this thing by your side, then it's no wonder that you have lived in peace for more than ten years, and no one has noticed that you have a monster. But this It's hard to find things, back then Master wanted to find a few dollars, but he went to several monster fairs but couldn't find them. Where did you come from?"

"It should be given to me by Daoist Zhu." Qin Mochi thought for a while, "At that time, my mother asked him to take me back to Linhai... There was no one else except him."

Qing Ning nodded, she knew that Ali didn't have this thing in her hand, "This Daoist Zhu, he has done his best to you. He also left such a precious spiritual stone for your self-defense. Well, fortunately, there is this stone, Otherwise, at your young age, firstly, you can’t bear Ali’s demon pill at all, and secondly, if other demon clan finds you, you will have no way to resist.”

Qin Mochi looked at Xiao Shitou with complicated eyes.What I always thought was useless turned out to be my amulet. I'm really... so sorry for it.

"No wonder all these years have passed safely, and suddenly there will be a demon..." Qingning sighed, "I will thank you when I have a chance in the future."

Qin Mochi nodded, "It must."

Qing Ning muttered again, "I've always looked at that stingy old thing as a dislike, but he turned out to be a good person..."

Qin Mochi suddenly couldn't laugh or cry.

The next day, Xia Zhenghe was really happy to see the gift from Qin Mochi, but he felt a little uncomfortable seeing the safety card he gave to Xia Zhi and his wife.On the one hand, I feel that this child has a conscience, and Xia Zhi and his wife have not loved him in vain for so many years. The relationship between Hong and Xia An and Qin Mochi could not be repaired no matter what, he really felt an indescribable sense of frustration.

Especially for Xia Hong, Xia Zhenghe simply hated iron but not steel.You said that in today's society, it's not uncommon for a man to divorce and remarry, but after divorce and remarry, he doesn't even recognize his ex-wife's son, which is a bit unbelievable.Because of this, Xia Zhenghe hated Liu Xiaowan for a long time, thinking that this is what the old saying goes: If you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather.But Liu Xiaowan is a woman after all, and a woman plans for her own child, so it cannot be said that there is nothing wrong with her.The root cause of this matter still lies in Xia Hong.

Xia Zhenghe has always felt that although Qin Mochi was taken away by Xia Zhi and Lin Tang, they are a family after all, living under the same roof, and they can always meet each other when they come out and go in.Unexpectedly, time flies, Qin Mochi has grown up in a flash, and Xia Hong and his wife are still so short-sighted, they can't see that Qin Mochi has won awards several times and is building his own brand step by step. .

Ugh.

Useless things.

Xia Zhenghe thought angrily, if he had thought about making them a good brother, Xia Zhijie and Xia Zhiwan would have strong helpers when they entered the industry.Qin Mochi is a high-minded person, he really doesn't necessarily like the Xia family's small business.Xia Hong is judging others by himself, and his heart is blocked by the short-sightedness.

Forget it, forget it, Xia Zhenghe thought to himself, children and grandchildren have their own blessings, so if you want to make trouble, go there, as long as you don't make trouble under the eyes of Lao Tzu.Anyway, none of you would listen to what I said.

Qin Mochi was peeling pistachios to feed Qingning, when he heard Xia Zhenghe say, "How did I hear that girl from the Zhao family went to look for you? Have you seen anyone? What kind of girl is she?"

"So-so, that's all. I don't think it's that good." Qin Mochi thought to himself, if he really wants to tell you what kind of girl she is, she must scare you.

"Nonsense," Xia Zhenghe scolded him, "How can you just look at someone's beauty when you marry a wife? The important thing is to have a good temper."

Qin Mochi agreed twice, and seeing that he still wanted to talk about it, he interrupted him quickly and said, "Grandpa, I won't hide it from you, I'm going to have dinner with this girl tonight." If you are curious, I will observe it carefully and report back to you.” That’s right, it is it, not her.

Xia Zhenghe was stunned for a moment, and then showed a look of relief. "You don't need to report to me. Your straight temper is also properly put away, don't scare the little girl."

Qin Mochi nodded quickly, "I know, I know, don't worry about it, you old man." It's not sure who will scare who, but I really want to make this girl anxious and make him a man-eating flower. good?

Xia Zhenghe nodded in satisfaction.

Lin Tang held Qin Mochi's hand, and asked worriedly: "Little Mo, your matter..."

"Don't worry," Qin Mochi held her hand behind his back, and winked at her quietly, "I just went to meet and get to know each other briefly. I can't say anything else. Don't worry, you all."

Lin Tang was a little worried, but he could only nod his head in front of the old man, and said lightly, "Be careful." These days, it's not only women who are easy to be eaten tofu when they go out, men are also the same, especially his little ones. Blue chip stocks like Mo.If you really want to be tricked, how will you live your life in the future?

Seeing Lin Tang's worried face, Qin Mochi brought Qingning over to show her, "Auntie, look at me, I'm a smart bird, and I can even say Gong Xi Fa Cai." He poked Qing Ning with his finger belly, motioning for it to perform one.

Qing Ning vomited blood, this unfilial nephew, did he use it as a pet to show his eyes?

Qin Mochi patted its small head, "Go to the restaurant at night, there are delicious things."

Qing Ning swallowed her anger and moved forward, reluctantly said, "Gong Xi Fa Cai."

The whole family laughed.

Qin Mochi picked up the little uncle, and kissed it twice, "I'll order you something delicious tonight, grilled lamb chops, spicy shrimp, tiramisu, matcha ice cream..." The last two things they did yesterday I just ate in the cafe on the fourth floor of Xinghai Building. The little uncle with a bottomless stomach ate four servings of tiramisu and two servings of fruit ice cream in one go.In the end, he was threatened viciously by the unscrupulous little nephew, saying that if he continued to eat, he would have no dinner, so he gave up.

Qing Ning desperately pecked at his ears twice, and complained softly, "I'm your uncle, you can't just bully me because I just entered the city and don't understand anything."

"Where do I have it?" Qin Mochi held it and went to the kitchen to find something delicious, "Yesterday, all the banknotes in the wallet were bought for you, and you saw it with your own eyes."

Qingning thought of his empty wallet with only a few copper coins left, and felt a little better.Although the current money is different from before, there are no silver or gold ingots or silver bills, but the tinkling copper plates are still the currency with the smallest denomination, but they are all the same.

As for the credit card, what is that thing?The junior uncle who just entered the city has never heard of it.

Qing Ning opened her mouth to eat the freshly fried shrimp he took out from the kitchen, and asked him worriedly, "You only have copper coins left in your wallet, so do we still have money to eat?" Although there is a lot to eat, according to the little nephew, he cannot live here forever.

Qin Mochi suppressed a smile, and said solemnly: "Don't worry, little master, I will work hard and earn money to buy ice cream for you."

Qing Ning was immediately moved, she spread her wings and hugged his neck, "Then...then I will eat less from now on." In fact, with its cultivation level, it is not a problem not to eat anything.It's just that eating in the city is very interesting and fun, it has never seen it before, so it can't help it.

"Then how can I do it?" Qin Mochi said righteously: "It is my responsibility to let the little master eat well!"

Qingning's voice choked up, "I will teach you well in the future, and I will never bully you again..."

Qin Mochi held back his laughter until his cheeks twitched, thinking, but I still want to bully you, what should I do?Young master, how can you be so funny, what should you do if you can't stop at all?

Forget it, as long as you know this one yourself, don't let the little master find out.

Coming out of Xia's house, there were still a few hours before the evening date, Qin Mochi simply took Qingning to the zoo.Although Qingning lived hundreds of years longer than him, its understanding of modern society is similar to that of a child, perhaps not as good as a child, and it doesn't even know how to take a bus.

In order to let Qingning learn more, Qin Mochi deliberately parked the car near the subway station, and took Qingning to the zoo by subway.Qing Ning was very repelled at first to go underground, but later saw that so many people went there, and the underground station was not only spacious and bright, but also had a lot of shops, so she felt a little relieved, and felt that the life of modern people was really different from The old days were very different.

In comparison, animals in cages did not arouse his interest, after all, he had seen many of these things in the mountains.On the contrary, the facilities in the amusement park attracted its attention even more. Qin Mochi had no choice but to hold him and ride the roller coaster, pirate ship... one by one.

When he came out of the zoo, Qin Mochi's face turned pale.Although he won't get dizzy or anything, but being tossed and tossed around for two hours, it wouldn't be too good for anyone else.Qing Ning was so excited, she stepped on his shoulders, calling for Qin Mochi to come and play after he earned money.

Qin Mochi pretended not to hear, and squeezed his little uncle into the subway station, went back to pick up the car, and went to the appointment.
