230. The Harvest (1)
Early the next morning, Gao Ran booked a private room at the inn where she was staying, and then went to her uncle's temporary residence to find him. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
I remember that a few days ago, when they met each other by chance and immediately recognized each other as the same family, Xu Shi happened to be in a good mood for both of them, and they were both willing to chat politely with each other, asking who the other party was studying from, so as to find out the order of each other's seniority in the school......
But I didn't think that this inquiry would make Gao Ran have an extra "little uncle" out of vain!-It turned out that the other party was Zhao Yi's little junior brother!
But at that time, they had just met for the first time, the two were not familiar with each other, and they learned that the other party was still his "elder" (the seniors in the division), Gao Ran naturally did not want to ask his real name directly as soon as he came up. I had to call him "Little Uncle" to show respect.
Unexpectedly, the two people, who originally just wanted to simply say a few polite words to each other, chatted and chatted, but the more they chatted, the more speculative they became...... As a result, in the end, the tone of the two of them even became more and more "equal", and their respective natures were unconsciously revealed in the process.
And the title of "Little Uncle" has also unconsciously changed from the original slight "respect" to a simple title that just shows the generational relationship between the two. - Although, Gao Ran didn't necessarily have much awe for this "little uncle" he had just met......
In her view, true respect must always be truly from the heart, and must be based on a certain understanding of the character of the other person - and it is also the character that she herself identifies with - and then it will come naturally - her reverence for others has always been: if there is, it should be there sometimes, if not, then no matter how forced by others, there will not be! On the contrary, she will completely despise the other party because of the other party's compulsion!
And now, although she and the little uncle had a good conversation, they did not really know him, let alone whether his true character was worthy of her admiration and respect.
However, in her opinion, it was rare that she could take the initiative to show kindness to him when she first met, instead of being wary of him first!

Knock knock.
Unconsciously, Gao Ran had walked to the door of Uncle Xiao's house. She knocked on the door twice and waited in silence.
But she didn't wait long, and after a while, Uncle Xiao opened the door.
"Heh, you're so early. β
"Sooner rather than later. β
"Yes. Let's go!"
Although Uncle Xiao said that Gao Ran came "early", and in fact, it was indeed early at the moment, but his look at the moment and his already neatly dressed clothes all illustrated a fact: the "early" at this moment is not early for him!
"It seems that he is really waiting for me according to the promise, otherwise he would have left early. While waiting for Uncle Xiao to lock the door from the outside, Gao Ran couldn't help but think so in his heart.
"Let's go!"
"Good. β
After Gao Ran naturally responded, he involuntarily followed behind Uncle Xiao.
But after taking a few steps, she suddenly reacted again, and immediately stopped, and asked with some puzzlement: "Little uncle, do you know where I want to make a trip for you? Why did you lead the way? Or do you have a place where you want to go? If that's the case, then it doesn't hurt you to lead the way......
"No, I don't have much more to visit, I'm going to the inn where you're staying. Why? Aren't you going to feed me there?"
When he replied, although Uncle Xiao slowed down his pace, he didn't mean to stop.
When Gao Ran saw this, he had to run a few steps to keep up, and then he always deliberately walked side by side with him - he took small steps, but she took big steps.
Uncle Xiao's "accommodation" method made Gao Ran embarrassed to let him stop and talk to her for a while. She had no choice but to stride hard to keep up with him, and at the same time did not forget to ask her doubts in time: "Uncle Junior, how do you know where I am staying? Although we have known each other for a few days, I have always gone to look for you, and you have never asked me where I live! How do you know? Could it be that you have specially investigated me? Hehe, no? Uncle Xiaoshi -- I can't see that you are still quite sullen......
"Sullen?" Uncle Xiao finally glanced at Gao Ran deliberately, but only at once. He wasn't going to delve into the meaning of a word he didn't understand, he just had a gut feeling that "sullen" wasn't a good word!βespecially from her mouth!
"Heh! you don't deserve my bothering for you!
"I just have a sharper sense of smell than ordinary people, and I have remembered your smell since I first met you. It's very faint, but as long as it's within 100 meters, I can definitely smell it!
"It was only once that I stumbled past the inn and smelled you, and I knew that if you didn't live there, you would have been there often! β
Speaking of this, Uncle Xiao smiled unconsciously and deliberately teased: "Heh, I can't see it, you still like to hang out." I'm afraid you've been all over the city, haven't I've seen your scent a lot these days! It's all over the place! It's really wronged my nose......."
In the end, Uncle Xiao unabashedly glanced at Gao Ran with a little disgust.
"Uh......" Gao Ran was stunned, Uncle Xiao's words made her a little embarrassed. It was the first time she had been so bluntly disliked!----she was still disliked to her face!
But this breath, how could she swallow it obediently?!
So, she deliberately protested with an aggrieved face: "Little uncle, you are too embarrassed for me! This smell is not what I want! If you dislike it, then you can prepare an 'antidote'! Don't worry, as long as you can deserve it, I will definitely eat it! As long as you take the 'antidote,' there will be no more smell." And without the smell, you won't be wronged by your nose anymore!
"But do you have the 'antidote'? If you can't, then you have no right to dislike me!
"Besides, it's mainly because your own sense of smell is too good! It's not what I want you to smell! I don't even blame you for the smell being too strong! Every time I get close to you, my nose will soon be smoked by you like a 'failure'! As long as you're by my side, I can't smell anything else!
"Little uncle, do you say, did I wronged your nose or did you greatly weaken my vigilance? Or do you say that if there is any danger, you will definitely protect me?
"Hmm...... If that's the case, then I won't bother with you if you can't smell any other dangerous smells! But if that's not the case, then what if I have something to do with it...... Even if I don't pursue it, I'm afraid my master won't let you go easily!
"Don't blame me for not reminding you, I'm Master's only apprentice, and he's so 'baby'! You should know that old man's temper very well, right?! You'd better weigh the consequences before deciding whether you want to dislike me so bluntly?"
After speaking, Gao Ran also gave him a slap in the face without showing weakness!
This time, it was finally Uncle Xiao's turn to be stunned. But his silence at the moment is not as stunned as Gao Ran's before, the reason why he is silent is because he is looking at Gao Ran with eyes as if he has discovered something new and interesting, and the way he looks at her also makes Gao Ran obviously feel: she seems to have accidentally aroused his "interest" in her!
"Oh no! This guy isn't trying to test me?!"
With the "precursors" that Gao Ran had observed in the years he had been by Zhao Yi's side that some of his quirks would generally have before the attack, at this moment, when she saw that the little uncle actually showed her a look that was very similar to the look in Zhao Yi's eyes when he was in the valley, whenever he wanted to test the medicine with the other three people except her, her first instinct was that this little uncle was very likely to want to test her medicine!
