Chapter 6: Aunt and Cousin
Before the two went shopping to buy clothes for Mi Xiaoxiao, Li Ling also went into the bathroom to take a shower and change his clothes, and the dirty Mi Xiaoxiao just now crawled and got a lot of stains on his clothes and pants, especially the inside of his windbreaker, the brown fluff would be rubbed black by her.
Diaphragm.
When Li Ling went out, he found that there were no shoes for Mi Xiaoxiao to wear, so he could only wear her mother's plush slippers and wait until the mall bought her a new one.
"Fluffy rabbit slippers," the rabbit slippers on Mi Xiaoxiao's feet bumped into each other, looking at the drooping rabbit ears shaking cutely, and a sneer appeared on her face, "I didn't expect you to be a big man and secretly wear this kind of pink rabbit slippers in private." ”
"This is my mother's, didn't you notice that these shoes are too small for me to wear them in?" In the face of Mi Xiaoxiao's false accusation, Li Ling had to explain, besides, regardless of the shape of the slippers, isn't it natural for men to like pink? It's not those kids who don't know what they only like black.
This Demon Venerable is like a child, thinking that pink is exclusive to girls.
Although it seems to be right?
"Your mother? Then why is there only trace of your life in this house? ”
"Busy with work, my parents are, I just came back a few days ago but left yesterday after eating Chinese New Year's Eve."
Li Ling is also used to this, they were like this when he was very young, and he didn't know what work he was busy with, and he couldn't see each other a few times a year, but thanks to the development of technology in recent years, there was such a thing as a video call, and occasionally he could make a video call and chat a few words, so as not to feel strange when he saw each other's faces when they met again next time.
This kind of thing happened once when Li Ling was in junior high school, Li Ling was still a thin and small one in elementary school, and when he officially developed in junior high school, it was like playing hormones, and he grew from a small man of less than 1.6 meters to more than 1.8 meters in two semesters, and he changed several sets of clothes, and he looked tall and strong.
The appearance has changed so much that after a year of not seeing their parents, they almost can't even recognize their son, and when they first meet, they think it's something like that.
If it wasn't explained in time, I almost got beaten.
"So the advantage of your parents' absence is that you can live here with peace of mind, otherwise I will have to rent a house for you outside."
Mi Xiaoxiao nodded, went out with Li Ling, walked a few steps and thought of something, stepped forward to pick up Li Ling's down jacket, and tried to get in.
Li Ling hurriedly pressed Mi Xiaoxiao's head and said, "What are you doing?" ”
Mi Xiaoxiao raised her head and met Li Ling's gaze, frowned a little unhappily at Li Ling holding her on the top of her head like a child, slapped his hand away, and said, "Aren't you afraid that this seat will be seen?" Take a look at it. ”
Li Ling rubbed his fingers, he had already found a reasonable excuse for such a small problem: "That was just now, now you don't need to, if you are seen later, you can say that you are my cousin and my uncle's daughter." ”
"This seat is your master!" Mi Xiaoxiao's eyes widened, "There must be a scale for the collapse of etiquette, the generation of this seat is the same as your parents', how can you be your cousin?" ”
"And what do you want?"
Mi Xiaoxiao lowered her head and thought for a while, the rabbit slippers on her feet touched each other again, and suddenly she had a flash of inspiration and said, "This seat wants to be your aunt!" Plus I wore your mother's slippers, and you are your master like a father and mother, rounding it up, you can call my mother directly. ”
Li Ling took a deep breath, the cold air filled his lungs so that he would not be so angry with Mi Xiaoxiao that he wanted to hit someone, but even so, he couldn't help but put his hand in front of Mi Xiaoxiao, slowly clenched his fists, and his finger bones made a "click" sound while the green tendons bloomed, and said, "Do you know what this is?" ”
Mi Xiaoxiao didn't dare to look at Li Ling, took a few steps back, leaned against the corner, scratched her face that was a little itchy by her hair, and said tentatively: "Then it's better to take a step back alone." ”
"What's the way to retreat?"
"You call me aunt outside, and you call me master at home.
"Is this called a separate opinion? You're going to die if you don't take advantage of me, right? Li Ling waved his hand, "You are my cousin outside, so it's decided!" ”
After speaking, he ignored Mi Xiaoxiao's rebuttal and walked directly to the stairs.
Mi Xiaoxiao hurriedly followed, without backing down: "Hmph, then this seat can also say that you are my nephew, each according to his own words, so it's decided." ”
Li Ling's home is on the third floor, the floor is not high, but there is no need to climb up and down, which is also a big advantage in an old residential building without an elevator.
Coming downstairs to the community garden barbecue is still barbecuing, playing fireworks is still playing fireworks, and even a few more tables while playing mahjong while playing the fire, full of New Year's atmosphere, lively.
"Boom!"
Brilliant fireworks exploded above the community, enveloping the community and lighting up the night sky, making people playing in the community garden subconsciously look up.
Li Ling is the same, after all, fireworks have not been allowed in the city for many years, and the fireworks that bloom again in the night sky and the misty smell of gunpowder in the air make him regain the fading smell of the year.
At the same time, he felt a tightness in his hand, and he saw that Mi Xiaoxiao was firmly grasping his hand.
He felt a wave of nervousness and fear.
But it only lasted for a moment, Mi Xiaoxiao, who realized her gaffe, hurriedly let go of Li Ling's hand, and proudly crawled all over her little face again, seeing those children who were jumping up and down with joy, raising their hands to catch the little fluorescent ones falling in the air, they were quite disdainful, and said: "Snort, the little fireworks are happy like this, I have never seen the world." ”
Li Ling knew that she was changing the topic to hide that she was frightened by the sudden explosion of fireworks just now.
didn't say anything, patted Mi Xiaoxiao's shoulder and led her to the parking shed in the community.
"Li Ling, is this your girlfriend?"
Li Ling heard the voice and saw that it was a neighbor who lived on the same floor, a somewhat rich aunt, and also one of the members of the barbecue downstairs, and their family was happy.
Before Li Ling could speak, Mi Xiaoxiao took the lead and responded loudly: "I'm his aunt!" ”
Seeing that Mi Xiaoxiao took the lead, Li Ling hurriedly explained: "Her name is Mi Xiaoxiao, she is my cousin, my uncle's daughter. ”
When the aunt heard the different replies of the two, her eyes turned to Mi Xiaoxiao and Li Ling, who were very different in age and height, and suddenly understood.
This is nothing more than an explanation made by Li Ling for the sake of his aunt because he is unwilling to call a little girl so much younger than him.
Li Ling's grandparents can also do it, they are really old and strong.
The aunt couldn't help but be a little envious, picked up two cooked chicken wings from the tray and handed them over: "Come, eat a chicken wing." ”
There are a lot of ingredients for the barbecue tonight, and the family has already eaten almost it, and the rest is ready to be roasted and given to the neighbors, and now they are here to give them to them.
