After settling down in the county seat, Li Jiu used a red rope to string the two spirit fish, and braided a necklace to wear on the winter cub. Lao Li Tou and his grandmother gave up reincarnation, melted their souls like spirit fish, and they could be regarded as accompanying and guarding the winter cub in another way. Wearing a spirit fish necklace, the winter cub faintly felt that his parents were still by his side, and slowly, he came out of the grief of losing his parents, and together with Li Jiu and Ah Huang, he began to adapt to a new life.

After Li Jiu adopted the winter cub and settled the old Li Tou and his wife, Wang Jun made a lot of efforts, and through these things, the relationship between Wang Jun and Li Jiu was pulled in a lot. Wang Jun knew that Li Jiu was a master in the world, and he wanted to make friends with him.

Although Li Jiu has lived in seclusion for many years, he has not really practiced to the realm of no desire and no desire, and his biggest hobby is wine.

Wang Jun often gets some internal special wine, and when he has time, he takes the wine to Li Jiu's house to visit, Wang Jun is honest but tactful, he has been the captain of the criminal police for many years, and he is also well-informed, Li Jiu likes his principle of being a man and doing things, and the two gradually become friends in the New Year.

Tongcheng is a small county outside the fourth or fifth line, neither rich nor prosperous, of course, not completely without advantages, the environment here is good, the temperature is suitable, it will not be too cold or too hot all year round, coupled with the slow pace of life, it is very suitable for retirement and leisure.

In any case, Tongcheng is much more lively and prosperous than a small mountain village like Lijia Village.

The place where Li Jiu lives, although it is an old alley for some years, but it is better to be quiet in the middle of the noise, it is less than 20 minutes' walk to the central square of Tongcheng, and there is a park next to it, and then go a little further, it is the commercial pedestrian street that Tongcheng has just built.

Li Jiu was slightly chubby, ruddy complexion, and had few wrinkles on his face, although his hair and beard were all white, and he looked younger than Lao Li Tou, who was less than sixty years old, but his real age was twice that of Lao Li Tou.

Li Jiu has quite a set of health preservation. Every morning, he insisted on playing Tai Chi for one to two hours, practicing Tai Chi Sword, running two laps around the park square, and before going to bed at night, he had to practice the health boxing he had obtained from the Xuanmen inheritance. Don't look at him as a fat old man who is not arrogant, if he really moves, Wang Jun, the captain of the criminal police, may not be able to make a few moves in his hands.

He's been busy with the winter cubs lately, and his morning exercise has been interrupted for several days. After the winter cub gradually got used to it, Li Jiu resumed the health care homework that he had insisted on for decades, but there was one more milk doll at home that needed to be taken care of, Li Jiu took the Tai Chi sword in the morning and went out of the door and turned back, silently playing Tai Chi in the yard for more than an hour, and waited until the winter cub woke up, dressed and washed himself, and then took the little guy out with him.

At seven o'clock in the morning, the number of people on Tongcheng Street has gradually increased.

The winter cub still remembers the fear and helplessness of the last time he got lost in the town and couldn't find his father, now that his parents are gone, and he can't go back to the familiar home, the only one he knows is this fat old man, and when he goes out, the winter cub is very nervous to grab Li Jiu's hand, and try to keep up with Li Jiu's footsteps with his little short legs.

The winter cub was still young, and it didn't take long for the little short legs to start sore, and the sun he didn't like was gradually revealed. If the people around him were replaced by his parents, the winter cub would definitely stop and not leave to hug him, but the person next to him was Li Jiu, and the winter cub would not dare to be coquettish. Although Li Jiu has been very good to him recently, and gave him a lot of delicious food that he hadn't eaten before, Dong Cub always remembered that Li Jiu beat him very painfully, like all children of the same age, in front of whom you can be spoiled or even sprinkled, in front of whom you have to be honest, Dong Cub has a count in his heart.

Fortunately, Li Jiu was careful and soon noticed the struggling of the winter cub.

"Do you want me to hug you?" Li Jiu had never raised a child seriously, so he asked hesitantly.

The winter cub looked up and looked at him for a few seconds before nodding slowly.

The fat old man's arms were very warm and soft, and the winter cub suddenly remembered his stinky mother.

Thinking of his mother, the love of the winter cub instantly fell.

The little bit of caution of the winter cub was almost all written on his face, where could Li Jiu, who was almost old, not see it?

"Are you hungry? Do you want to eat noodle soup with milk? Li Jiu didn't know how to coax children, but after a few days of getting along, he found that the winter cub's mouth was a little greedy.

Milk noodle soup is a unique kind of noodles in Tongcheng, the soup base is not made of milk, but slowly boiled over low heat such as chicken and pig bones, and the milky white broth is boiled all the time, and the taste of milk noodle soup is very delicious with this broth as the soup base.

Milk noodle soup!

The winter cub's big dark eyes lit up, and the speed of nodding was obviously much faster than just now.

Ah Huang, who ran without a shadow all day long, jumped out of nowhere, meowing and screaming, "Take me, take me!" The voice was full of flattery.

Li Jiu glared at it, and said angrily: "Keep up." ”

Ah Huang followed behind them, saying that Li Jiu was eccentric for a while, lamenting that his status at home had declined, and muttering all the way.

Li Jiu came to a time-honored milk soup noodle shop in the city with the winter cub in his arms, this shop not only tastes like a noodle soup, but also has buns, steamed buns, special cold chicken, and free kimchi, and the price is also affordable and fair.

In the past, almost all the winter cubs cooked by grandma were white water, and adding some meat and lying on a poached egg is the best, and the taste is not half a star compared with milk soup noodles.

The winter cub finished eating the milk soup and noodles that Li Jiu ordered for him, drank the chicken soup in the bowl cleanly, and looked at the xiaolongbao in front of Li Jiu after putting down the bowl and chopsticks.

"Haven't eaten yet?" Li Jiu hasn't even raised his own son seriously for two days, and he is not sure how much a three- or four-year-old child can eat, what he gives the winter cub these days, the winter cub eats, and he eats as much as he wants, and he never takes the initiative to ask him for it, and he doesn't know the appetite of the winter cub.

The oily xiaolongbao, the scent of green onions drilled into the nose for a while, and the winter cub swallowed saliva and nodded hesitantly.

The little doll was so well-behaved that it made people feel distressed, Li Jiu touched the hair of the winter cub, pushed the plate in front of him, and said to him: "If you want to eat, you can take it yourself, and you can tell me what you want to eat, you know?" ”

Dong Cub nodded, took a xiaolong bun by himself, and after taking a small bite, he whispered to Li Jiu: "Thank you." "If someone gives him something, he has to say thank you, so that he can be polite, and everyone likes polite people, which is what Dad told him when he was reading a storybook.

This is the first time in so many days that the winter cub has taken the initiative to talk to him, Li Jiu smiled, and touched the ugly watermelon head of the winter cub, "The winter cub is so good." After a while, when grandpa goes to the park to practice swords, he will take you to cut your hair and buy new clothes, okay? ”

The winter cub was not very interested in anything other than being sensitive to eating, but he nodded obediently.

There are not many people exercising in the park in the morning, they are all old men and old ladies, as soon as Li Jiu passed, these people gathered around and called the teacher. On weekdays, in addition to his own boxing and sword practice, Li Jiu will also teach other old men and old ladies who practice in the morning, his movements are standard, and he is also patient, these old men and old ladies follow him After learning, they felt that their health was much better, and they slowly spontaneously called out to Teacher Li Jiu.

Li Jiu is older than all the old men and ladies present, and he can still afford this teacher.

Although Li Jiu cut off contact with Xuanmen, he occasionally saw something from these old men and old ladies, and he was willing to mention something or two, and received a lot of good karma.

In 2001, in a small county like Tongcheng, those who can come to the park every day to insist on morning exercise are some more knowledgeable old men and old ladies, and they are also considered to be heads and faces in Tongcheng before retirement.

Winter cub is a small black household, and he has no blood relationship with Li Jiu, Li Jiu wants to adopt him and transfer him to his own name, it is not a simple matter, even if Wang Jun comes forward to do something, it is impossible to get things done in just ten days. In private, Li Jiu also took another path.

Li Jiu hadn't been here for so many days, and this group of overage disciples were all inquiring about him, worried about whether something had happened to him. After some inquiry, everyone knew that he had adopted a winter cub.

This group of old men and old ladies are all hard-working people, they don't care about the ugly hairstyle and clothes of the winter cub, seeing that the little guy's face is very beautiful, he timidly took Li Jiu's hand, very well-behaved and quiet, Li Jiu asked him to sit, he sat obediently under the shade of the tree, did not cry or make trouble, and instantly compared the bear grandson in his own family.

After the winter cub wore the spirit fish necklace parasitic on his parents, the yin aura on his body was hidden, and there was no longer the strange feeling that made people feel cold down his spine before, and when Li Jiu took him to recut his hair and change his hairstyle, and put on a well-fitting children's clothes, the little guy's appearance soared up a lot. The beautiful face of the flesh, with the big and round eyes, and the well-behaved and quiet winter cubs, make these old men and old ladies who are in the stage of parenting in the next generation tremble, and they all want to take him home and raise him.

The winter cub was so young that he became someone else's child before he had time to enter school.

By the time he started school, his hatred had risen several levels.

The reason is simple, this little bastard has contracted almost all the first places in the school since he entered the school.

The only thing that can make people laugh at him is the music class and art class that will never fail, but these two things are not important in junior high school and high school, even in elementary school, they are often encroached upon by the head teacher under various excuses, even if there are zero duck eggs, no one will care, okay?

Of course, Dong Cub, no, Li Dongsheng still cares more, he has always thought that he has a talent for painting, but the teachers and classmates and the stupid Ah Huang don't know how to appreciate it.

Well, it must be so!

"Li, Li Dongsheng, what school are you going to apply for?" At the end of the college entrance examination, Liao Meimei, the class flower and school flower, stopped Li Dongsheng at the door of the examination room, her pure and beautiful face was red with shame, and her heart was beating like a malfunctioning machine.

Li Dongsheng didn't like to talk much since he was a child, when he was a child, he had no expressionless face, and when he grew up, he still had no expression, but he didn't look like words, when he was a child, his big and round eyes slowly became longer as he grew older, and under the eyelashes with shadows, his pupils were bigger and darker than ordinary people, and when he looked at you without blinking, he felt like his soul was going to be sucked away.

"Big B." Out of politeness, Li Dongsheng replied casually, and after speaking, he raised his leg and left. In fact, he didn't quite understand why there were still some male classmates in the female classmates from childhood to adulthood, blushing when they looked at him.

“…… What the? Liao Meimei's heart almost jumped out of her chest, and she was so excited that she couldn't hear a word clearly. When she came back to her senses, Li Dongsheng had already walked away. Liao Meimei couldn't help but stomp her feet, and kept watching Li Dongsheng's back disappear into the crowd before she left angrily.

"Winter cub, winter cub, you flirt with your sister again!" Halfway through, Ah Huang came out of nowhere, and flexibly jumped onto Li Dongsheng's shoulder and squatted.

“…… Grandpa said, let you go online less and practice more, you have to be obedient, if you secretly go online, I won't buy you fish. In the face of familiar people (cats), Li Dongsheng's words will be a little more.

The hair on Ah Huang's tail almost exploded, "Winter cub, even if you are a little antique who can't understand Internet buzzwords, you don't have such a communiqué for personal vendetta!" Winter cub, winter cub, I find out you're bad at learning now! ”

Listening to Ah Huang's heart-wrenching accusation, Dong cub, no, the corners of Li Dongsheng's mouth faintly revealed two small pear vortices.
