Chapter 77: Holiday Life
Maloro laughed, "You don't believe it, I can live a few days at ease if I stay in Tanmeng, if I go to August, I will be like a bird in a cage and a tiger in a box, and I will lose my freedom!"
"Is it that serious?"
"It's more serious than that. ”
"Why?"
"Reputation, power, interests, and other things that the family has imposed on you. ”
"Can't you say no?"
"Yes, unless you lose the surname Morales. Maloro laughed, "It's just a surname, it doesn't really matter to me, it's just that my father values it very much!"
This was the first time Zhang Xiaojuan had heard Maloro mention his father, and in her impression, although Joseph was a housekeeper, he had actually replaced his father as a part of Maloro and Carlos' lives. On several occasions, Zhang Xiaojuan even suspected that Joseph was Maroro's father. At this time, Malloro personally revealed that his father was someone else, and Zhang Xiaojuan felt that the Morales family was really complicated.
"Is he okay?"
"Very good, dedicated to the love of his life!"
"Listen to your tone, he's a stubborn man?"
The corners of Malloro's mouth rose, and he said with a radiant look: "Very stubborn, I am very similar to him in this regard!"
Zhang Xiaojuan smiled back, she felt that there were some things that Malloro didn't want to elaborate on, so she led the topic to some interesting things in school.
It's not that Maloro doesn't want to go into detail, it's just that he doesn't know how to express the complex emotional entanglement between father and son, plus he doesn't want Zhang Xiaojuan to know too much about the dark relationship within the family, he just wants to create a relaxed and warm environment for her, and it's good that those nasty things are blocked by him, he really likes Xiaojuan's daughter, who is not only well-behaved and sensible, but also connected to him by blood.
Yes, the blood is connected, and you can know it just by looking at the looks.
Maloro happily continued the topic of Zhang Xiaojuan, coupled with his humorous language, the atmosphere in the carriage became extremely brisk for a while, and from time to time there was a crisp or magnetic laughter.
After a few months, he returned to the familiar courtyard, Joseph arranged everything with a smile, and the flowers in the yard had passed their flowering period, leaving only a dense cluster of stems and leaves. Zhang Xiaojuan has been coming to the otherworldly continent for almost a year, except for the discovery that the position of the two moons in the sky has changed, the climate is not much different, and there are no four seasons on the earth, spring, summer, autumn and winter.
Carlos came back at dinner, he hadn't seen him for months, his tall body seemed to be stronger, his wheat-colored skin was still shining with a healthy luster, his hair was cut lightly, and the red stubble reflected the light-colored scalp, he looked like some bad person, but fortunately he was in good shape enough, and he was casually covered with a wide magician's robe, and his actions were more free and casual.
Zhang Xiaojuan's dark eyes looked him up and down, and suddenly pursed his lips and smiled maliciously.
The corners of Carlos's mouth rose to reveal a mouthful of white teeth, "You laughed so badly, you must have done something bad again?"
"You are the one who does bad things, and you are the one who is punished. Zhang Xiaojuan was curious: "I wonder how Teacher Wayne is playing tricks on you?"
Carlos smiled as if he had fallen into some memory, his face was a little distorted, and he gritted his teeth and said, "That hateful old man actually harmed me with stinky soap powder!"
Joseph on the side solemnly reminded him, "Young Master Carlos, Teacher Wayne is an old friend of Principal Hayden, a veteran of the Tammon Junior Spiritual School, and a senior alchemist worthy of our respect, please pay attention to your words and deeds!"
Carlos grimaced and complained: "Uncle Joseph, you don't know that old... What is the stinky soap powder that Mr. Wayne gave me, it is a kind of medicine powder that emits feces all over my body when it is wet, you don't know how embarrassed I was during that time, I was often misunderstood for pulling my pants!"
Maloro laughed unkindly, "That smell does look like pulling in your pants!"
Zhang Xiaojuan couldn't help laughing, this Teacher Wayne is really capable of tossing people.
Joseph said solemnly: "It's dinner time, please don't talk about these impolite topics!
"Uncle Joseph taught me a lesson!" Carlos sat down depressedly, looking at the sumptuous dinner, remembering the disgusting smell of stinky soap powder, and losing his appetite, hey, that Wayne teacher is so hateful!
Maloro was in a good mood when he saw Carlos eating, cut off a small piece of tender meat for Zhang Xiaojuan, and then cut a large piece for himself and stuffed it in his mouth, deliberately chewing slowly at Carlos.
"Don't be too happy, Maroro, today Andrés asked me to tell you that we should go with him to the Kokoridge Forest. ”
"Go again, didn't you accompany him last time?" Maloro chewed wax and suddenly lost his appetite, he still wanted to accompany Xiaojuan during the holidays, but he didn't expect Andles to make such a nasty request again, but who made Andles his friend, or the kind that shouted at will!
"The herb aura content he picked back last time was not enough, and the pills he refined failed to do. Carlos had a headache and said, "Andrés wants to go deeper into the Kokoridge Forest this time, and in addition to me and you, he also has to bring people from the Cabre family." ”
Maloro pondered for a moment and said, "The Cabrai family has made a move, it seems that the elixir that Andrés is going to refine this time is very important! ”
Carlos also felt the same way, and smiled bitterly, "That medicine idiot reassures me that he will definitely pick high-purity spirit-grade herbs this time." ”
Maloro regretted: "This trip back and forth for at least two months, I originally thought of taking Xiaojuan to Agutte to relax, who wanted to plan it again!"
Carlos also felt regretful, "I also want to guide Xiaojuan's aura cultivation well, this Andles is really good at picking time!"
The two regretted it for two days, and Andrés came to the door in person, and he didn't know what he said, so Malloro and Carlos appeared together in Zhang Xiaojuan's small courtyard.
At this time, she was sitting in the courtyard Na Ling, the little furball was obediently lying at her feet, one, two, three, four perched on top of her head, and even the potted grass basking in the sun on the side also favored the soft and tender stems and leaves to her.
The corners of Carlos' mouth twitched slightly, what was the situation?
Is it a combination of one and three Naling? The animals and plants are all brought.
Maloro gestured to Carlos with his eyes, and the two left the small courtyard gently, Andrés's proposal was to wait until she finished talking to her!
Carlos had never seen such a Naling scene before, and he asked Maloro curiously.
Maloro pondered for a moment and guessed, "Is this the magic of the third-level aura perception attribute?"
Carlos suddenly forgot that Zhang Xiaojuan was a third-level aura perception attribute, and this innate attribute would make aura take the initiative to get close to her, and those demonic beasts and plants that could sense aura would unconsciously approach her.
Maloro sighed: "It is really a contradiction to have a third-level aura perception attribute but have not awakened the aura attack attribute for a long time!" After speaking, he shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Carlos joked: "Cousin, even the Demon Beast and the Spirit Grass have sensed it, are we too slow?" and then said with a serious face: "In order to step into the tenth-level threshold as soon as possible, I will also accompany Xiaojuan Naling from now on." ”
Marolo was noncommittal, and I have to say that Carlos's proposal made him heartbroken. At his age, he can break through to the level of a tenth-level swordsman, and his future achievements are limitless.
Carlos didn't know what to think of, and complained: "Andrés is also a third-level aura perception attribute, why don't you bring us two when you take Ling, this guy is really not interesting!"
"We've been friends with Andles for so many years, when did you see him have this kind of phenomenon?" Maloro spoke objectively and fairly, Carlos realized his impulsiveness, and then recalled the process of dating Andles, and said shamefully: "I blame him wrongly." ”
"Andrés deserves our trust!"
Carlos nodded, agreeing with Maloro's words.
