Chapter 134 Xie Yunshu's Lost Control
Xie's mother was wearing a floral shirt and dark blue trousers, carrying a lot of bags, and Xie Yunshu was following behind her.
Old Master Qi stood up and quickly invited everyone in. He warmly entertained Mother Xie, poured tea and water, not missing a single step.
Qi Man was lying leisurely in the hammock, looking comfortable. When she heard some noise coming from the door, she turned around and met Xie Yunshu's deep eyes. The two of them stared at each other.
For some unknown reason, Qi Man suddenly got a childish temper and glared back, unwilling to be outdone. Her eyes became round and her cheeks puffed up uncontrollably, like a puffer fish, so adorable.
Xie Yunshu's face was tense and he looked away stiffly.
If I keep watching like this, I’ll definitely be amused by the little girl!
Qi Man's eyes felt a little sore from staring so she rubbed them with her hands. Then she stood up and politely greeted Xie's mother.
"Thank you, Auntie!"
“Hey!”
Mother Xie responded cheerfully, and then her eyes fell on Mr. Qi:
"Grandpa, I really have no choice but to go on a long journey. My son will stay with you for a few days. The main reason is that this brat has no one to watch over him. He doesn't have regular meals and sometimes even spends the night in the mountains. He needs a place to stay so he knows how to go home."
Mr. Qi understood what Mother Xie meant, and smiled meaningfully:
"My dear in-laws... Bah, why are you being so polite to me? Just let Xiao Xie live in my house. It happens to be the same room as Dong Chen."
“Hey!”
The two of them exchanged glances with each other in a knowing manner.
In this way, Xie Yunshu temporarily lived in the Qi family.
As soon as he sent Xie's mother away, Mr. Qi stood up and greeted Xie Yunshu:
"Xiao Xie, follow me with the things you are carrying."
Xie Yunshu followed obediently.
Seeing that there was nothing for Qi Man to do, she simply continued to lie on the hammock like Ge You.
I had been lying down for less than a minute when I heard my grandfather's voice.
"Manman! This afternoon, I'm going to take your brother and Erya to the county town to get a marriage certificate. We also have to buy some things. I estimate that it will take a few days for me to come back. You and Xiao Xie should just make do with what you have. I'll bring you something delicious when I come back."
Qi Man was confused and asked doubtfully:
"Didn't you say you would take me with you?"
Why would grandpa go back on his word?
Old Master Qi laughed to hide his guilty conscience, and said in a hurry: "Initially, it was planned that we should go together, but plans can't keep up with changes. Xiao Xie is going to stay at our house for a few days. I haven't been out for many years. It just so happens that your brother and his family got their marriage certificate, so I'll go out for a walk. You can't let me, your grandfather, take care of Xiao Xie at home alone! After all, you young people have more topics to talk about, and you, girl, can go out whenever you want."
As he spoke, his cloudy eyes suddenly widened and he stared at his precious granddaughter with tears in his eyes.
Qi Man: ...
There is no need to do this!
What he said made sense, but it sounded weird, and I couldn't put my finger on it.
Glancing at Xie Yunshu, who was sitting on a chair drinking water, Qi Man pouted in grievance and compromised obediently:
"Got it, Grandpa! Have fun outside. If you miss Manman, just call the village chief's house."
Speaking of telephones, I have to find some time to install a landline at home!
If there is any urgent matter, we have to tell each other, which is a bit troublesome.
Thinking of spending more money in the county town, Qi Man used the excuse of returning to her room to take out several hundred big unity notes from the space, wrapped them in a piece of cloth and stuffed them into Mr. Qi's hands:
"If there's anything you want to buy, buy it!"
“Hey!”
Seeing his granddaughter compromise, Mr. Qi breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in agreement. He did not refuse the money his granddaughter handed over. He immediately went out to find Bai Jiachun to ask for leave for Qi Erya and Qi Dongchen.
I don’t know what Mr. Qi and Qi Erya said to each other? The three of them moved smoothly, simply packed their luggage, took their household registration books, and left.
Qi Man watched the three of them leave in a hurry, her mouth twitched slightly, and she didn't know if she was hallucinating.
It was as if there was some terrible monster in the house and grandpa was trying to avoid it.
With the departure of Mr. Qi, the house became much quieter.
The two of them stared at each other for more than ten minutes. Qi Man finally gave up and sat down on the chair like a deflated ball, mumbling:
"I can't cook. You have to take care of your own three meals a day. There are ingredients in the kitchen. Eat whatever you want. Don't be polite. You don't have to worry about me."
I heard that handsome men’s cooking is mediocre!
So Qi Man planned to live on the cooked food in the space. As for Xie Yunshu, a grown-up like him, he had to fend for himself.
Xie Yunshu's face was dull, his eyes were fixed on the little girl in front of him, and his tone was cold: "Okay!"
Then the two ran out of topics to talk about and fell into silence again.
Qi Man stared at Xie Yunshu for a while, and seeing that he had no intention of talking anymore, she felt bored. She curled her lips, said hello, and turned back to her room.
Looking at the little girl's back as she left, Xie Yunshu stopped talking and awkwardly withdrew his outstretched hand. He felt subtly panicked, as if he was punching cotton.
I had repeated these words thousands of times in my mind, but when I actually saw Qi Man, I couldn't say a word and my mind went blank.
Xie Yunshu lowered his eyes slightly, glanced around, and his gaze finally locked on the room where Qi Man was, and he sighed.
Qi Man, on the other hand, had already changed into a set of refreshing pajamas and was lying on the bed taking a nap, sleeping soundly.
In the evening, Qi Man was awakened by a fragrance. Her nose slightly raised and she couldn't help but follow the fragrance without noticing it for a moment.
Bang--
He fell straight off the bed and hit his forehead. Qi Man suddenly woke up, with tears in the corners of her eyes, and staggered to her feet from the ground.
Bang--
There was another loud noise.
The door was kicked open suddenly. Xie Yunshu looked towards the source of the sound in panic and saw that the little girl had a red forehead and red eyes, looking very pitiful.
Seeing that the person was fine, Xie Yunshu finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, when he saw what the little girl was wearing, his brain stopped working for a moment, his face turned pink, and the tips of his ears were red as if bleeding.
Qi Man was wearing an ultra-thin silky pajamas, which was something Xie Yunshu had never seen before. Her perfect curves were faintly visible, and her eyes were red and tearful, which easily aroused people's imagination.
Xie Yunshu, who was usually steady, reacted belatedly and panicked. He walked out in a hurry and almost tripped over the threshold. Fortunately, he grabbed the door handle in time, steadied himself, and quickly closed the door.
Looking at Xie Yunshu leaving in a panic, Qi Man was confused.
What's wrong with him?
He rubbed his aching forehead, changed into casual clothes, applied some medicine on his forehead, then opened the door and went in search of the fragrance.
