Chapter 3185 Crucian Carp Tofu Soup
The boy nodded.
A well-behaved look on his face.
He tried to tighten his lips.
So as not to laugh obviously.
……
After returning to his seat and sitting down, the boy with his head lowered showed a big smile on his face.
On the way out of school, he walked very fast at first.
His steps were as brisk as if he were about to fly.
He was very excited.
Thinking of going home, he couldn't help but smile.
But
When he entered his community, his steps gradually revealed a bit of hesitation.
The closer he got to his home, the slower he walked.
He... began to feel a little scared.
Is morning mom real?
Won't he find out when he gets home now...
Was his mother in the morning just a figment of his imagination?
……
No, no, no...
The boy shook his head violently in his mind and denied it.
How could the mother in the morning be his hallucination?
He clearly remembered it clearly.
I recalled it countless times in the classroom.
Mom...is back.
……
The boy gulped.
He walked into the unit building.
……
Every footsteps was like stepping on his heart.
He became more and more nervous.
……
He hesitated for a while.
This situation is so similar to yesterday.
Even the follow-up is exactly the same.
The boy heard footsteps coming up and he didn't want to run into his neighbor.
He quickly inserted the key into the keyhole.
He had the key in his hand from the beginning.
……
"Bang~"
After entering the house, he turned and closed the door.
……
But today, he soon noticed how deserted the room was.
Not as sluggish as yesterday.
The boy was a little stunned.
Today...
He also arrived home first.
……
The boy pressed his chest hard.
His heart was beating fast.
He was a little cold.
A little hot again.
……
Today...
Can he wait for his mother?
He would never cry himself to sleep like he did yesterday.
Even now, he found his eyes burning.
The nose is also a little sore.
……
The boy rubbed his nose vigorously.
He closed his eyes again and took a deep breath.
No...
His mother told him to be careful on the road this morning...
Even though he didn't look back, he knew his mother was always watching him.
He suddenly regretted it.
He should turn around.
He turned around and waved to his mother.
Say goodbye.
Instead of...
"I'm leaving."
……
The boy is doing homework in the living room.
Instead of going back to his room.
He tried to focus on his homework.
Instead of getting up and leaning out the window every now and then.
Every now and then, I look up at the time on the clock.
……
Unfortunately, the results are not very obvious.
The boy felt as if his heart was hanging in mid-air.
That feeling of weightlessness... was uncomfortable.
The boy didn't know how many deep breaths he took.
The tightness and stagnation in the chest have never improved much.
Naturally, the homework was not going well.
Doubling and correcting made him more and more irritable.
……
The boy hit his head hard.
concentrate.
He told himself harshly in his heart.
Don't-
Um?
The boy's ears twitched.
What?
Is there any sound?
The boy suddenly stood up.
It seemed like...the sound of a key opening the door! ?
……
Before his brain could work, the boy had already run towards the entrance.
I happened to catch my eye with my mother who opened the door and came in.
The boy froze in place.
……
The woman was also a little stunned.
Clearly not expecting to see the boy as soon as she entered the house.
It's like...
The boy has been waiting for her at the entrance...
……
The woman quickly smiled.
She picked up the bag in her hand.
"I bought crucian carp and tofu today."
...The boy's pupils dilated for a moment.
Crucian carp tofu soup.
It's one of his favorite dishes.
……
The boy followed his mother unconsciously.
The woman was putting down dishes in the kitchen.
He turned around with a somewhat amused look on his face.
"Why are you following me?"
"Have you finished your homework?"
……
The boy shook his head honestly.
Before his mother came back, he wanted to do it...
However, my thoughts were all on my mother who didn't know when she would come back, so I didn't do much homework at all.
……
"Then let's do our homework first."
The woman arched her eyebrows.
"Mom will call you when dinner is ready."
……
"Yeah."
The boy nodded obediently.
"Then I'll do my homework first."
He turned and left the kitchen.
……
The woman who turned around to handle the crucian carp did not notice that the boy did not return to the living room immediately after leaving the kitchen and the woman's sight.
Instead, he quietly stared at the woman's busy back in the kitchen for a while, then turned and returned to the living room.
……
The boy grinned.
He laughed silently.
Mom...
Back.
……
After a while, the boy finally calmed down.
Start writing homework.
……
The boy quickly completed his homework.
Actually, it was still slow today.
There were several days ahead where he could finish all his homework at school.
After all, besides doing homework, he didn't know what else he could do in his spare time?
No one talked to him.
Instead of sitting around, he would do his homework.
This way he won't be embarrassed.
You won’t feel embarrassed anymore.
After all, the focus is on solving the problem.
……
The boy subconsciously looked towards the kitchen again.
He couldn't see anyone in the kitchen.
But he could already smell the delicious flavor of crucian carp and tofu soup.
It smells so good...
The boy couldn't help sniffing.
"Gululu~"
Quite fittingly, the boy's stomach growled.
The boy quickly pressed his stomach.
I always find it embarrassing when my stomach growls.
……
He is hungry.
The boy rubbed his belly.
But unlike yesterday, he knew...
Dinner will be ready soon.
The rich aroma of the food filled the room with a warm atmosphere.
The boy couldn't help but smile.
……
"Xuanxuan."
A woman's voice came.
"Come for dinner."
……
"Coming."
The boy nearly jumped.
he responded loudly.
Then he walked quickly to the restaurant.
……
"Wash your hands first."
Seeing the boy staring at the crucian carp and tofu soup with saliva on his face, the woman reminded the boy in a funny way.
……
"Oh."
The boy obediently went to wash his hands.
When he came back, his mother had already served the rice for him.
There is also a bowl of crucian carp and tofu soup on the side.
……
"Eat."
Seeing the boy's stunned look, the woman was a little confused.
"Aren't you hungry?"
……
"Hungry."
The boy said as he picked up the chopsticks.
……
The woman smiled.
"Don't eat too fast."
"Beware of fish bones."
……
"Yeah."
The boy replied vaguely.
The crucian carp and tofu soup made by my mother is as delicious as I remember.
Obviously it hasn't been that long since he last ate.
But he felt as if he hadn't eaten for a long time.
The slightly scalding fish soup slides down your throat.
Warmth immediately spread to all limbs.
