Chapter 2279 Maple Leaf Crisp
"This is indeed troublesome."
Zhuge Yun was stunned.
Such suggestions have been put forward...
The opponent is bound to win Maple Tree.
"Yeah."
Xu Zizhen sighed and said, "That's all the other party said."
What else can he and his grandparents do besides continuing to practice Tai Chi with each other?
"Why do you have to listen to his request again and again?"
Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.
"You can just be grateful to him for saving the old lady."
"But, after you have rejected him many times and he still refuses to give up, I think you don't have to worry too much."
"He will not know your difficulties, but still come to you again and again."
"Why can't you just shut him out?"
"You can tell him clearly that we can talk about other things, but if it's about the maple tree, we won't entertain him."
". Third brother, that's right!"
After a few breaths of silence, Zhang Bo gave Xiao Xiao a thumbs up and grinned.
"I have the same idea as Lao San."
"The other party doesn't care what you think anymore, so why do you have to hang up your hands for the other party's help?"
"I think he seems to be trying to repay a favor."
Zhuge Yun was thoughtful.
"Although you refused, because the other party helped your grandma, you always left room for your attitude towards him."
"He must have noticed this too."
"That's why I have the confidence to pester you endlessly."
Xu Zizhen looked startled.
".Is this so..."
In fact, it's not like he hasn't had this thought before.
However, it is true that Hong Feng helped the old lady.
So he was ashamed of himself for having such thoughts.
It seems like there is a feeling of repaying kindness with hatred...
"Xu Zizhen, you don't have to think too much."
Zhao Luzheng organized his sentences, "Hong Feng did have good intentions at the beginning."
He helped the old man who fell on the road.
Send the old man to the hospital.
Send the old man home again.
Totally a good Samaritan.
But after seeing the maple trees in the yard, he changed.
He wanted maple trees.
Then his contact with the old man is no longer simple.
But with his own purpose.
"One code equals one code."
"You don't need to associate your gratitude to Hong Feng for helping the old man with his unreasonable demands."
".Hmm."
Xu Zizhen took a deep breath.
"I know."
In fact, he has always known it, just his grandparents.
"I will talk to my grandparents."
Xu Zizhen made up his mind.
It would do no one any good to drag things out.
My grandparents were also a little exhausted physically and mentally because of this incident.
"Master Xiao."
Xu Zizhen suddenly thought of something.
He looked at Xiao Xiao, "How did you reject the other party that time?"
"Do you think everyone is Hong Feng?"
Zhang Bo blurted out.
"People like Hong Feng who have no vision and no interest are rare."
"You have hit the jackpot."
Zhuge Yun sighed.
Xu Zizhen smiled bitterly, "Is that so?"
"Master Xiao, did you solve it easily that time?"
"So be it."
Xiao Xiao smiled.
Seeing Xu Zizhen's frustrated look, he curled his lips and said, "My situation was different from yours that time."
"It's different?"
Xu Zizhen blinked.
Aren’t they all attracted to the trees in their own yards?
What's the difference?
The only difference is the person you fall in love with, right?
"The other person is not a person who likes plum trees that much."
Xiao Xiao's words made Xu Zizhen look serious.
He also guessed that this was the case.
"I'll just say it."
Zhang Bo muttered.
Most people give up when their purchase request is rejected.
I really like to stick to it a few times at most.
After all, there are only a few people like Hong Feng who will not give up until they achieve their goals.
Xiao Xiao raised the corners of his mouth. In fact, they may have misunderstood what he meant.
The person he said didn't like plum trees that much, not in comparison with Hong Feng, but in comparison with ordinary people.
The other party took a fancy to his plum tree, not because it was a plum tree, but because it was a plum tree that also bloomed in summer.
What the other party likes is this specialness.
"Hey~"
Xu Zizhen sighed.
But soon, he cheered up.
"I'll go tell my grandparents tomorrow."
"Hong Feng will come over tomorrow."
When he thought of this, Xu Zizhen's shoulders slumped again.
What a hassle.
Can't that person just give up?
"Xu Zizhen, do you mind if we go together?"
Zhuge Yun was somewhat excited.
He wanted to see such a person with such a personality.
"Huh?"
Xu Zizhen was stunned.
"Why are you joining in the fun?"
Zhang Bo rolled his eyes.
"What does it mean to join in the fun?"
Zhuge Yun was dissatisfied, "I think we can be Xu Zizhen's strong backing and support Xu Zizhen."
"Isn't it great?"
"Let's talk."
Zhuge Yun touched his neck and coughed a few times, "I suddenly want to see Ling Feng."
"You can't see it."
Zhang Bo hit the nail on the head.
Zhuge Yun:
"I want to see maple trees!"
"Can't you?"
"I can always see the maple tree, right?"
"Second brother, is this your goal?"
Zhao Luzheng was stunned.
What he said about helping Xu Zizhen was actually that he wanted to go to someone's yard to see the maple trees.
"Who said that?!"
Zhuge Yun refused to admit it, "This is incidental."
"By the way!"
"Do you understand?!"
"Oh."
The expressions of Zhang Bo and Zhao Luzheng clearly showed disbelief.
Zhuge Yun:
He turned to look at Xu Zizhen, "Xu Zizhen, what do you think?"
"How was it?"
"Of course."
Xu Zizhen smiled.
"Then you can go back with me tomorrow."
The next day, Xu Zizhen, Xiao Xiao and others arrived at the Xu family's old house early in the morning.
Seeing their grandson's classmates, the two old men smiled.
"Welcome, welcome."
"Come in."
"Have you had breakfast?"
"This is."
Zhuge Yun looked at the snacks on the table curiously.
"Maple leaf crisp."
Xu Zizhen smiled in surprise.
"Grandma, this is maple leaf cake, right?"
His uncle once told him that grandma’s maple leaf cake was delicious.
Unfortunately, after he was born, grandma never made maple leaf cake.
He never had the opportunity to eat grandma's maple leaf cake, which his uncle praised highly.
"Yeah."
The wrinkles at the corners of the old lady's eyes relaxed.
"I heard you said yesterday that you were going to bring your classmates over, and I suddenly thought of this snack."
“I haven’t done it for a long time, and I don’t know if my skills have deteriorated.”
"Come on, don't just watch, let's all have a taste."
"This is called Maple Leaf Crispy."
Zhuge Yun picked up a piece of snack and said, "It does look like a maple leaf."
"Hmm."
Zhao Luzheng took a bite and said, "It's delicious."
"Yeah."
Zhang Bo finished one in two mouthfuls, "It's not very sweet, it's delicious."
"Haha."
The old lady smiled and narrowed her eyes.
Considering that her grandson and her classmates are all boys, she deliberately made it not so sweet.
