“Nectarines don’t taste good.”
"Ah...it doesn't taste good. Then I won't eat it."
nectarine?
I don't know why I brought this up.
"Well...actually, I wanted to say...I want to eat barbecue. When you come back, can we go together?"
"Of course, when mom comes back, I'll take you guys out to eat. You know, there's a really good restaurant in the night market square."
Yes, yes, he can actually order takeout.
Li Yao smiled slightly and said goodbye politely. He only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the black screen of his phone.
Well, I didn’t say it…
“Dongdongdong——”
"Is anyone there? Can you open the door for me? Hello?"
There was a knock on the door, it was Caius coming back.
He didn't have his keys with him.
Li Yao looked towards the door, as if he was dazed for a moment, and only moved to open the door when he knocked for the third time.
As soon as I opened the door, the people outside were all smiling. "I have good news for you. They like the gifts I sent them very much."
"Those date cakes?"
“Yes, they love to eat.”
Caius felt the urge to share, so he bent down and picked up the child in front of him. As he walked inside, he said, "I got a return gift, and I think you'll like it."
He opened his palm and saw a handful of candy.
"I heard you like mango flavor." He picked out the mango-flavored candy, peeled off the candy wrapper, and handed it to the little guy's mouth.
Li Yao looked at the candy, was silent for two seconds, and opened his mouth.
Actually, he really doesn't like mangoes that much...
Never mind, it doesn’t matter, it’s all the same.
Seeing him eat the candy, Caius smiled with his eyes curved. "Little Mumu told me that he and you guys have an appointment to watch the grandfather downstairs practice Tai Chi together tomorrow. That's so cool. Do you want to learn Tai Chi?"
What he said was a mess, and Li Yao listened with one ear and let it out with the other, somewhat absent-mindedly, and casually replied, "I don't want to learn."
"So you want to learn martial arts? Sanda? Fighting? Or boxing?"
Li Yao turned towards him and pointed at himself in disbelief, "Are you asking me? Why?"
Caius told him a piece of news on his phone. "Some kids are being bullied. I'm worried about you getting bullied. Oh, and your brother too. I'm really worried about you guys."
Sanda?
Sounds good.
But……
"Can I?"
"certainly!"
Caius pinched his ear and said, "I believe you will be the best students."
"……oh."
"So, can we go pick out a suitable institution tomorrow? I think I need to choose a good teacher."
"Tomorrow is Saturday..."
"Yes, in the morning, you and your good friends will go downstairs to watch Grandpa practice Tai Chi. At noon, I will make you a hearty and nutritious lunch, and then we will take a nap. In the afternoon, we will go to the Sanda Club."
Your plan is really comprehensive.
Li Yao didn't know why he was so excited, but it sounded good, so he nodded, "It's all right. But..."
"I want to prepare a gift for my mother before she comes back, which is the day after tomorrow."
Caius let out a brief "Ah," "Gift? Haven't you thought about it yet?"
"No."
The little guy is a little lost.
Caius patted his head and comforted him, "It's okay. In fact, no matter what you give, Mom will be very happy, right?"
Finding his comforting words had no effect, he suggested, "You might need a bunch of flowers, honey."
or……
"Will you go fishing with me?"
"fishing?"
"Surfing, perhaps."
Caius spread his hands and said, "It's so hot, why don't we take a trip to the beach? Iced drinks, a cool summer day, you'll love it."
"Your mother will like it too."
"Really?"
Will you really like it?
Li Yao is skeptical about this.
"I think so. Look, honey, we might have a picnic, and you can grill her a bunch of nice potato chips on the beach, and maybe even a popsicle."
"Potato chips with ice cream? Your taste is weird..."
Caius chuckled, "Well, it's late now. How about I take you to bed and tell you horror stories tonight?"
“Not so good…”
"Then let's tell the story of a mountain that once existed."
"what ever."
"Oh wait, where's your brother?"
"bathroom."
"Well, baby, aren't you happy?"
"No."
"Smile more, kid, don't be so serious."
“…”
The moon tonight is very round, bright and big. The same moon is also shining on a mine that spans two continents.
There was a temporary tent on the mine with a light on inside. After a few seconds, the zipper was opened and the person in the tent came out with his teeth bared.
"Damn, there are so many mosquitoes!"
The man was in a very bad mood. He looked at the bite on his arm and wanted to beat someone up.
The environment in this place is extremely harsh.
Fortunately, he was just here to inspect the work and could leave tomorrow.
"Uncle, why are you here? Come here quickly, they are having a party!"
A young boy, full of youth, came running over from a distance. He took a deep breath and said, "They can sing very well. When I leave, I must take some souvenirs with me."
"Xiaofeng, I didn't bring you here to play. Oh, no, I didn't mean to bring you here!"
Li Ci was very distressed, he was working.
Because Yu Rufeng wanted to "escape from family", he came to him for help, and brought a scary big dog with it, showing its big sharp teeth, which was really scary.
"Uncle! Don't say that! We are friends! If you don't take me in, where else can I go?" Yu Rufeng puffed up his cheeks. "Actually, I wanted to go find my uncle, but he didn't seem to be able to come."
"Hmm? Why is it inconvenient?" Li Ci was quite interested in this.
Yu Rufeng scratched his hair, and thought of his uncle's strange expression, he felt a toothache, "It's nothing, doesn't he have to take care of the children? If I go, he can't take care of it." No way!
The real reason...
In fact, he was afraid that if he went there, he would be treated like a slave and ordered around by his uncle, like... picking up packages, taking takeout...
And so on and so forth. Anyway, it's hard labor and you have to take care of children part-time.
In short, it's not cost-effective to go there.
Fortunately, he chose here.
Right choice!
Li Ci really couldn't understand why he liked this place. It was in the middle of nowhere, with bad internet and signal, no entertainment facilities, and not much scenery.
After he raised this question, Yu Rufeng patted his shoulder and said three words: "You don't understand."
Li Ci: “…Heh.”
So annoying.
He truly is Caius's nephew.
“pia——”
