Chapter 659: The Bald Tree in Winter Blooms
Seeing them frolicking like this, Xiao Rong took a few steps back and said with a smile:
"Why don't I come back later?"
The children she loves are grown up and should have plenty of personal space. But Ah Candle hurriedly broke free from Xia Xiao's embrace, blushed slightly, and prevaricated the gifts that had been prepared. She had prepared a lot of good words, but now she had forgotten them all. just said that the jade pendant and the aunt are very compatible, and I hope she will accept it.
"The little mouth is so sweet, eat some pastries, they are all prepared by my aunt, I hope you like it." ”
Ah Candle nodded straight, and his eyes lit up after tasting it. Seeing her looking at Xia Xiao, extremely surprised and shy, Xiao Rong said:
"You're welcome, treat this as your own home, eat it. ”
"Thank you, Auntie. ”
In order to let Ah Candle go, Xia Xiao also ate with her. I haven't tasted my mother's craft for a long time, but it's as appetizing as ever.
Seeing the children gobbling up, Xiao Rong was sad, and tears fell down uncontrollably. She also knew that it shouldn't be like this, Xia Xiao finally came back, and she couldn't keep crying and crying to make her worry. Before he came back, Xia Rong even thought that he must behave naturally when Xia Xiao came back, but his emotions were difficult to control.
"Ah Candle, you have suffered with my Xiao'er. ”
"Without an aunt, we are very good together, very happy. ”
A mature woman knows that the most important thing is that two people are not happy together, but this is the dream state of getting along.
Holding Ah Candle's hand, Xiao Rong regarded it as a treasure, which was more precious than the jade swan pendant. She hadn't seen Xia Xiao for a long time, but she knew that he could behave so indifferently because of this girl, who used to be Shu Shuang, and now is Ah Candle. She has endured more than the former, but the love and dedication she has received may not be as good as her.
Xiao Rong, a mother, loves her children, but she can't bear to let such a girl suffer, so she said ruthlessly:
"Xiao'er, the next time you go to Yunguo, don't bring a candle. ”
"Don't worry, mother, I'll go by myself in three weeks, and she will wait for me at the academy. ”
"That's good. ”
Xiao Rong sighed secretly, I don't know when, she couldn't give an opinion on what Xia Xiao had experienced, she could only watch, and it became a luxury for the family to reunite.
"Big brother is still in Xiyang?"
"Xu'er was ordered to guard where, Wan'er temporarily returned to Yugu, after all, she married to the southern country, and it was not in accordance with the rules to run back. ”
Since Xia Xiao came to the Great Wilderness, the family has rarely been reunited. Perhaps, this is also the reason why he misses Longgang so much, although he was poor at that time, he couldn't open the pot, but the family was there, and it was a blessing in disguise. Now that the war is raging, if you want to return to the way it was before, you have to calm everything.
Xia Xiao's current ability can stop Nanshang from entering, after all, he also has his own things to do. These things have nothing to do with Nanshang, and they are not directly related to Great Xia, but they have nothing to do with the entire Great Wilderness. He was overwhelmed by the event, but when he got home, he was finally in a better mood.
Soon, Xia Jinghong hurriedly walked into the dark room and said:
"As we thought, the Holy One said that it can go according to your plan, stay for a while. In fact, the Holy One also has the intention of letting you stay for a while longer, but I don't think it can be done, the time is long enough, and any longer time will make them suspicious, which is counterproductive, so it is better to leave it like this. ”
Xia Xiao nodded, and told the ins and outs of the whole thing as his father and mother wished. Everything starts with appreciating the flowers in the academy, Xia Xiao was still very leisurely at that time, and Ah Candle felt that the future was promising. But because of the goodness, they secretly went to the Devil's Plains of the Goulong Bang Clan, and were tricked into demons.
With the foreshadowing outside Xiyang City, Xia Xiao's entry into the demon was very smooth, and it was funny to say, it was easier than usual promotion.
Regarding Shangshan, Xia Xiao talked about it, which was the most objective description, but it made Xia Jinghong and Xiao Rong feel magical. I didn't expect that there was such a thing in the world, a rune array turned into two people, and their personalities were different. After that, he was let go by the academy and began to wander. In front of his family, Xia Xiao would not hold back, and told everything about the academy covering him.
After that, Xia Xiao and the others went to the tail corner of the desolate beast, but were intercepted by the Qingtian Sect, and then went to the south of the South China Sea, which seemed a little dreamy, and it was extremely dangerous just to listen to it. For Xia Jinghong and Xiao Rong, it was already a far place to go out of Great Xia, but they didn't expect to go to the legendary place, Xia Xiao really grew up.
The thrilling thing has not yet begun, the desolate beast king in Xia Xiao's mouth, and the ancestor of the spirit contract that he saw in the cloud country to watch the moon, are the things that really shocked Xia Jinghong and Xiao Rong. Once upon a time, Xia Xiao was still a child who couldn't practice, and he needed Xia Jinghong's repeated teaching, and Xiao Rong needed to rub medicine.
I think it's only five years at most, but the child has gradually become a big man, and he can not only make a sensation in the wilderness. And they, as before, are guarding their homes from violation, praying for the safe return of their children.
Ah Candle was taken away by the people of Yunguo, and Xia Xiao cooperated with the people in the demon path to rescue him, but killed many people. Xia Jinghong knows this story, but he also supports Xia Xiao, and many people have already known about the filth of Yunguo. On the contrary, Xia Xiao's courage is worthy of admiration. It's just that the next escape may not be so easy.
In order to reassure his father, Xia Xiao told his plan one by one. The excitement of going home and the opening of the conversation box made him feel confident and seemed to have everything under control.
After taking a sip of tea, Xia Xiao stuffed a few mouthfuls of pastries and said happily:
"When those guys are really eliminated, then I'll be at peace. ”
"The ancestors of the Spirit Pact, they ......"
Seeing the wry smile on Xia Xiao's face, Xiao Rong blamed:
"It's really a pot that can't be opened, and what happens after that can always be solved. ”
"Dad, don't worry, no matter what the ancestor of the spirit contract wants, I will save my life. ”
Xia Jinghong smiled with satisfaction, Xiao Er, who had been ridiculed by countless people, was now at a height that could no longer be left behind. Xia Xiao looked at him and smiled happily, but he still had something to hide, and only Ah Candle knew about it. Although he said about the relics of his predecessors, he kept silent about the establishment of the Demon Dao Black Tree that he had just experienced.
"How long can the relics suppress the demonic qi last?"
"Don't worry, mother, I have planted a tree in my body, which has the same effect as the Tree of Vitality, which can master demonic energy. ”
"Mother, I really can't hide anything from you, I originally said I wouldn't mention it. ”
"Why?"
"This tree is a kind of tree, and I can't get out of the relationship with the Demon Dao. ”
Xia Jinghong and Xiao Rong fell silent, the Demon Dao is not a good thing, if you can't get rid of it all the time, doesn't it mean that you will always be criticized? Xia Xiao has always been cautious, but he still made such a decision, which made Xia Jinghong ask:
"Voluntary?"
"Of course, Master helped me to complete this project. From now on, demonic energy will become my sixth power, and it will be difficult to control my mind. ”
"In that case, it's a good ......."
Xia Jinghong didn't know much about demonic energy, but he felt that Xia Xiao I was really hard enough, far beyond himself. Parents can't see their children suffering, and their eyes turn red again. Some people will be upset by this reaction of their father, but Xia Xiao is full of happiness while feeling distressed. He has been here for eight years, he has gained a lot of things, and he has lost some people, but he has always been glad that he has a father and mother. This feeling of being cared for and pampered makes his heart extremely warm.
"Xiao'er, everything you have experienced now is no longer something we can guide, and as a father, I have no other words to give you, I only hope that you will always walk on the right path. Even if you get lost, come back quickly and don't go astray. And no matter how far you go, don't forget to go home. ”
"Got it, Dad. ”
"Okay, don't talk about these unhappy things, Ah Candle finally came once, come with us to your room to sit down, and then rest for an afternoon, and my mother will make food for you in the evening. ”
Xiao Rong still held Ah Candle's hand, which made her a little unsure of how to deal with it. She looked at Xia Xiao, her face full of help, but he smiled:
"Mother, Ah Candle is shy. ”
"That's not normal, when I saw your grandparents back then, I couldn't lift my face with shame. But Ah Candle, don't worry, Auntie will treat you well and treat you as her own daughter. ”
"Thank you, Auntie. ”
Ah Candle was sincerely grateful, and his nose was sour. She has no father or mother since she was a child, grandma is everything, although she is very happy to know that she is the main god, but she has always hoped that her mother will spoil her. Everyone knows that having a mother's child is like a treasure, and Ah Candle can finally experience it once.
Xiao Rong kept pulling her, and when Xia Jinghong and Xia Xiao talked about cultivation, the former said with concern:
"I've suffered a lot along the way, right? During this time in Xia Mansion, if you have anything you want to eat or need, you must tell your aunt, and tell Xiao'er that it's okay, just don't be polite. If you don't say Auntie, you don't know, I'm not like you, you're all great cultivators. ”
"Actually, I'm not very good, it's all Xia Xiao who is carrying it. ”
"If he didn't have you, he wouldn't be able to bear it. ”
Ah Candle feels that the aunt and the second sister are very similar, they are both virtuous ladies with high emotional intelligence. It's just that the aunt is more mature and intellectual, and the second sister knows more. She is curious and admired, and only the Xia family can be as good as everyone.
The backyard is Xia Xiao's residence, which is relatively remote, but he has always liked it, and when he came back at this time, he stretched comfortably, greedy for afternoon sleep.
Pull open the door, everything is the same, the bed and table are the same, still the same. The four of them sat at the table and chatted casually, Xiao Rong urged Xia Xiao to take a nap, he was so sleepy that his spirit was not good, so he almost squinted and nodded. Xia Xiao did not refuse, and after his father and mother went out, he simply washed and lay on the bed with a fragrance. Everything is a familiar feeling, and winter is just the right time to sleep.
Ah Candle and his piece, although Xia Jinghong and Xiao Rong didn't see it with their own eyes, it can be seen that she didn't leave at that time, and said with a smile:
"Xiao Er is really a blessing, Ah Candle is first-class good in terms of appearance and figure. ”
Xia Jinghong nodded, he also had this intention, but he didn't dare to say it casually. When they departed, the maids stood in front of the door waiting for orders, and they all looked at each other with joy. As soon as the young master comes back, they will follow the light, and the food alone has been raised by several grades from light, and there are also jewelry, which is really moisturized.
Originally, the maids were worried about the return of the young master, but now it seems that the demon is nothing more than that, and some of the maids who have known Xia Xiao for a long time feel that he has not changed at all, except for growing taller.
Soon there was a sound of snoring in the room, and the maids smiled and let them go back to sleep, and now it was time for supper when they could rest assured that no one would disturb them.
Xia Xiao hugged Ah Candle, very comfortable, and the peach trees in the backyard in his mind sprouted and grew leaves, and bloomed again. When I returned home, no matter what the four seasons were, my father's reaction made Xia Xiao's floating heart lean on a safe harbor, no longer determined by the waves.
Xia Xiao has fallen asleep many times due to the pain, and he has fallen asleep everywhere, but he has not slept comfortably at this time, he doesn't have to think about anything, he just sleeps for the sake of sleeping, that feeling, like he has reached heaven. Although Xia Xiao is the envy of many people, it is too simple to satisfy him, just need to sleep like this.
Xia Xiao felt good, and Xia Jinghong and Xiao Rong were also happy. The former went back and poured a cup of tea, and his restless heart gradually stabilized. As long as Xiao'er is okay, they can rest assured. He sat on the dusty recliner in a leisurely mood, Xia Xiao's current strength was a curl wheel. This kind of strength is already at its peak in Great Xia, who dares to be disrespectful?
Xiao Rong couldn't be idle, Xia Jinghong had been working too hard for too long, and it was not too much to rest, but she was at home every day, and she really didn't feel too tired, so she hurriedly wrote two letters, euphemistically saying that Xia Xiao returned, one to the west of Great Xia and one to the south. When these were done, I personally went to the back kitchen and picked a good old hen, let people slaughter it for a while, and then began to simmer slowly.
The guys in the back kitchen were full of energy, and let the lady sit on the side, so as not to let the oil splash the golden hand. But how could she be idle? busy with this and that, without stopping for a moment.
"Madam, I'd better do this kind of rough work. ”
The man tried to snatch the sweet potato from the lady's hand, and the simple work of peeling it did not require the lady to come herself. But she insisted:
"I'm not like your General Xia who is on the battlefield, and I don't take care of the government. Wouldn't it be incompetent to stay in Xia Mansion every day if you can't even take care of your family? Now that Xiao Er is back, I'll cook a few specialty dishes so that I can treat him. ”
"If there is a mother like Madame, the little one will wake up laughing from his dreams. ”
"It's just you, don't daydream! The eldest young master has made meritorious contributions in leading the troops and is already an important minister in Great Xia; the second young lady is smart and has repeatedly performed miraculous feats; the third young master has practiced the world, not to mention that he is an academy person, or a disciple of the Pope, which one can you compare?"
"If I could compare, I wouldn't mess around here. ”
The man lowered his head, he wanted to compare with them, but he couldn't.
"Alright, don't be poor, get busy. ”
It's still early, but what Xiao Rong wants to prepare is a big table of dishes. When the time was about right, she began to order the stir-frying, and made two dishes herself.
Hurriedly changed clothes, Xiao Rong woke up Xia Xiao and Ah Candle. The first time they met, she could be said to have behaved well in front of Ah Candle. Ah Candle's appetite makes him even more happy, and no one will mind letting his child eat more.
Ah Candle was afraid of scaring his uncle and aunt, so he ordered it, but Xia Jinghong smiled heartily:
"Ah Candle, when you were in the barracks, this little bit of food was not enough for you to eat, anyway, Xia Xiao and I want to drink, so you can eat more, how can you not eat enough when you get home?"
"Uncle, I'm full. ”
Xia Jinghong and Xia Xiao glanced at each other, he immediately picked up vegetables and added rice, and then leaned into Ah Candle's ear, and after secretly saying a word, Ah Candle moved his chopsticks again, showing his true strength.
Under the bright lights and candles, the wine and food were delicious, and the four of them ate happily, even if the night fell, they no longer worried about the children who were not at home. In the early winter, a warm quilt gave Xia Xiao and Ah Candle great comfort, allowing them to recuperate physically and mentally, so that they could easily face the difficulties and dangers in the future.
