Chapter 4046 Absence
The old lady narrowed her eyes slightly.
The pleasant fragrance of orange can't help but make people feel better.
The old lady's eyebrows relaxed.
"Okay."
She looked at the young man in front of her.
"I believe you."
"Hopefully we can find that friend of mine."
"And I..."
The old lady touched her head.
"I can also think of something."
……
After leaving the park, Xiao Xiao took the old man to the alley next to him.
Walking out of the dim alley, with the sun shining down, Xiao Xiao turned to look at the old lady, "Grandma Ji, do you have any taboos?"
……
"Huh?"
The old man was puzzled.
What?
……
Xiao Xiao smiled.
"It's noon."
"Aren't you hungry?"
……
The old lady subconsciously touched her belly.
Are you hungry...?
It seems a bit.
She didn't really care.
What she cares more about is...
"We..."
"Didn't find it?"
Their search...
Is it over yet?
The old lady felt intense disappointment in her heart.
She is looking forward to it...
That friend of mine.
I am also curious about what I will remember.
The result...
Is it all over?
They didn't find her friend.
……
"Not found yet."
Xiao Xiao smiled.
……
The old lady was slightly startled.
Currently...
……
"There are other places we haven't gone to yet."
Xiao Xiao curled his lips.
"However, sharpening the knife will not waste time cutting wood."
"People are iron, rice is steel."
"We'll continue after we've filled our bellies."
……
The old lady opened her mouth.
She wanted to say she wasn't hungry.
She couldn't wait to find her friend who she didn't even remember but whom she cared about so much.
……
"I'm hungry."
Xiao Xiao's eyebrows are slightly curved.
"So, Grandma Ji just wants to accompany me."
"How about going to eat first?"
……
"...Okay."
The old lady finally nodded.
There was no way she could refuse this young man.
It was up to this young man to find her unknown friend...
This young man has done a lot for her.
Although she had a lot of confusion about the whole thing.
But she knew this.
She was grateful to the young man.
Thank you for doing so much for her.
……
Xiao Xiao took the old lady to a nearby restaurant.
The customer flow of this restaurant is consistent with its level, which is considered a legacy.
The location is too far away.
The place is not big either.
There are no advertisements on various platforms.
Most of the customers who come here are acquaintances or new customers who come from word of mouth.
But this store was originally opened by a retired couple who didn't want to have nothing to do.
I didn’t even think about making money.
It’s fine if it’s not a loss.
The couple both enjoy cooking.
Restaurant menus are sometimes exaggerated and vary from day to day.
The couple is very happy running such a small restaurant.
……
Grandpa Xiao told Xiao Xiao about this restaurant.
It was not Mr. Xiao who discovered this restaurant by accident.
It's the owner of the restaurant and the couple who are regular patrons of the teahouse.
He is also a friend of Mr. Xiao.
……
Xiao Xiao came once with Grandpa Xiao.
The host's cooking skills are quite praised.
……
This time when he arrived nearby, Xiao Xiao immediately thought of this restaurant.
……
"Do you have any taboos?"
Xiao Xiao asked again the question that was ignored before.
……
The old lady was stunned.
diet?
She shook her head slowly.
"No."
In fact, she couldn't remember it.
She doesn’t know what she doesn’t like to eat?
She is really...
For a moment, the old lady had a ridiculous idea.
Did she just borrow a shell to mix among humans?
Otherwise, how can I treat myself...
She knew nothing?
This is so funny......
Xiao Xiao nodded.
"Okay."
……
The small restaurant has a very nice name - Huaihuaju.
……
Enthusiastic shop owners and a few tables of customers chatting and laughing in low voices.
The most important thing is a dish that satisfies one's taste buds and stomach.
Both Xiao Xiao and the old lady were very satisfied with this meal.
……
Saying goodbye to the enthusiastic store owner, Xiao Xiao took the old lady and walked out.
He also had a bag of snacks "forced" on him by the hospitable shop owner.
……
Xiao Xiao opened the bag containing snacks.
"Grandma Ji, do you want to eat?"
He turned the bag towards the old lady.
So that the old lady can see the snacks in the bag more clearly.
……
This is a traditional snack made by the store.
All kinds of cakes.
Various colors.
Made into the shape of a flower.
very beautiful.
It's as exquisite as a treasure placed on a plate for exhibition.
……
The old lady wanted to shake her head.
She had just eaten.
This restaurant is very interesting.
Whether it's the tables and chairs placed in the yard or the menu written on the blackboard...
certainly.
The most important thing is that the food in this restaurant is delicious.
She ate a lot.
There are still some unfinished ideas.
She couldn't eat anymore.
she told herself.
But who can resist such a beautiful treat?
……
At least the old lady can't.
The old lady followed her inner voice.
She held out her hand.
Finally, I took out a piece of pink snack.
……
"This is..."
The old lady held up the snack and looked at it carefully.
"Peach blossom?"
……
"Yeah."
Xiao Xiao nodded.
The old lady's guess was confirmed.
"It's a peach blossom."
……
The old lady took a tentative bite.
Fragrance lingers on teeth and cheeks.
Melts in your mouth.
The old lady quickly put the remaining half into her mouth.
“Delicious.”
The old lady narrowed her eyes slightly.
It felt like the breath I exhaled while speaking was filled with the fragrance of peach blossoms.
……
"Eat more if you like it."
Xiao Xiao quirked his eyebrows.
……
"Yeah."
The old lady pursed her lips and smiled.
She really had this idea.
Stop being pretentious and polite.
……
Seeing the old lady concentrating on savoring the taste of the snacks, Xiao Xiao also took a piece of snacks from the bag.
But not for myself.
He fed it to the little ones on his body.
Then, he took a piece of purple snack and put it into his mouth.
Hmm.
It's purple sweet potato flavored.
tasty.
……
Full.
Time to get down to business.
In the following time, except for that particularly far place, Xiao Xiao took the old lady for a walk everywhere else.
What a pity...
Nothing was gained.
……
The old lady walked down the street with her head down.
A bit of a lost soul.
……
No...
Only these two words were echoing in the old lady's mind at this time.
……
A sharp trumpet sound suddenly pierced the sky.
It was accompanied by the harsh sound of tires scraping the ground.
……
Xiao Xiao suddenly looked back.
There happened to be a child who was very interested in the little white fox in his arms.
I want to touch and hold her.
Even greedy for his little white fox.
The child's mother smiled apologetically at him.
Tell the child that this is the big brother's pet and pull the child away.
Unexpectedly, the child got angry, pouted and refused to leave.
Just as the mother and son were fighting, a sudden harsh sound startled them.
……
Xiao Xiao immediately rushed to the old lady's side.
ps: Thank you Qianqiong Qianjue for the reward~(*︶*)!
