Chapter 890 Sister's Habit
Ah Ci had a gloomy face.
Looking at the divine goose in the bowl, I felt like crying but had no tears.
"I hate that you are a piece of wood..." He looked at Lu Chaochao dimly with resentful eyes.
The corners of Xu Shiyun's mouth curled up wildly. She was originally in a somewhat depressed mood, but that mood had disappeared at this moment.
"Aunt, you don't like eating the white bell fruit either?" Cancan asked when she saw Lu Chaochao picking the white bell fruit aside.
After these words came out, several brothers of the Lu family looked at her.
Lu Yanshu's eyes trembled slightly. The white bell fruit was the size of a fingernail and was very fresh and sweet. But whenever my sister eats this, blisters will appear at the corners of her mouth. She loved eating it when she was a child, and would cover her mouth and cry after eating it.
Since then, the white bell fruit has never been seen in the house again.
Lu Chaochao covered her cheeks in fear and said, "If I don't eat, my mouth will hurt."
The brothers looked at each other. Cancan didn't know about Chaochao's childhood habits. Could it be that mother told her about this? ?
Shan Shan curled her lips and said, "I'm done, you guys eat slowly."
Then he stood up and glanced at the family members in the hall: "No matter how similar she is, she is not her after all. You are just deceiving yourselves..."
After Shanshan turned around and left, Xu Shiyun's face darkened a little.
However, Lu Yanshu just stared at Lu Chaochao.
He rejected the fake sister that Cancan had found to replace Chaochao from the bottom of his heart, and naturally he had never looked at her straight in the eye. This was the first time he had looked her straight in the eye after returning home for so many years.
She has a pretty face, picturesque features, and her every move is somewhat fairy-like.
But as long as she smiles, she will look more charming and innocent.
That cute and innocent look is exactly like Chao Chao’s childhood expression.
She doesn't eat white bell fruit. Although she looks like an immortal, she is not like other girls. She also likes to eat meat. I especially love the plate of four-happiness meatballs and braised deer tendons on the table...
When you eat your favorite food, your eyebrows will raise.
Even she herself didn't notice that a light of joy would appear in her eyes and her puffy cheeks looked like a little hamster.
After the meal, we sat next door, drinking tea and chatting to celebrate the New Year.
She didn't say anything either, just sat quietly in front of the small stove, staring intently at the chestnuts that were roasting and bursting on the iron grid. There are also sweet potatoes, peanuts, etc. on top...
"Well, mother, go get some fresh milk and tea."
"By the way, ask the kitchen to roll the glutinous rice balls into the size of your little fingernail." She must have seen this way of eating before in her memory.
Lu Yanshu's hand shook.
The warm water in the teacup overflowed and spilled onto his clothes.
He was still not coming back to his senses, and Cancan couldn't help but push his uncle: "Uncle, didn't you say that you would go to the study to take care of government affairs after dinner? Why aren't you going?"
"Your clothes are all wet, why don't you go change?" Cancan looked at him strangely.
Everyone looked at him.
Lu Chaochao, who was staring at the small stove intently, also looked up. Lu Yanshu looked away in a hurry as if he was burned.
He is no longer the young and naive man he used to be. He has been an official for many years and is the backbone of the Southern Kingdom and the Northern Zhao.
He had long since learned not to show his emotions on his face, and although his heart was in turmoil, his face showed no sign of it, and he was extremely calm.
But the hand holding the empty cup was clenched so tightly that it was almost trembling, and the nails were turning white.
"It's a rare lively night today, but we have official business to attend to... We can do it later." Lu Yanshu said calmly. They haven't stayed up to celebrate the New Year in six years since Chaochao's accident. No, this is the seventh year.
It has been a long time since it has been so lively.
"Cancan, there are some reading notes in uncle's study. Would you like to come with me to get them?"
The smile on Cancan's lips froze. If she had known... she wouldn't have asked her uncle.
"Oh..." She followed Lu Yanshu out dejectedly.
After Lu Yanshu went to the next room to change his clothes, he took Cancan's hand and walked towards the study.
When they reached a quiet and deserted place, Lu Yanshu waved his hand and asked the attendants to leave.
It was snowing lightly at the moment, and there were some snowflakes on Lu Yanshu's shoulders and eyebrows, making him look like a god descending.
He turned around, squatted down, and his eyes were level with Cancan.
Lu Yanshu looked at her seriously and solemnly, and Cancan couldn't help but stand up straight.
She was not afraid of her parents, her grandparents, or her third uncle, but she was afraid of her eldest uncle. Obviously, her uncle had never scolded her and always smiled whenever he saw her, but she was still afraid deep down.
"Cancan, tell me, where did you meet her?"
"Uncle won't rush you. Just think carefully about every word you've said, every person you've met, and every thing that's happened. Tell me everything in detail, okay?"
"Just consider it as... uncle begging you." Lu Yanshu looked a little crazy, but he was worried about scaring the child, so he tried his best to control himself.
Cancan was already so frightened that she didn't know what to do. Her uncle begged her?
Although she was still young, she didn't understand state affairs.
Every day, there are countless people who want to curry favor with my uncle and want to get to know him. He also holds the highest position in the family. Uncle actually begged her?
Cancan was a little nervous and stuttered as she recounted what happened between her and Lu Chaochao.
As they were talking, Lu Yanshu suddenly asked, "Did she...give you a star?"
Cancan made a bitter face: "Yes, yes, they are as beautiful as the stars. It's a pity that I was sucked into the ancient battlefield by the whirlpool last time. I gave the stars to my sister there."
"However, how could anyone in this world turn a star into a pendant? I guess it must be an extremely rare gem."
Lu Yanshu's heart was beating wildly as he listened to her words.
Almost jumping out of my chest.
"Don't tell anyone else that I'm looking for you." He stroked Cancan's head gently, and Cancan nodded before running away.
Lu Yanshu stood blankly in the snow, murmuring in a low voice: "It's really you, are you back?"
He looked up at the sky. It was exactly midnight.
Brilliant fireworks exploded one after another in the sky.
Everyone in the Lu family walked out of the door and looked up at the sky. The maids came forward and said auspicious words. Xu Shiyun smiled and asked Dengzhi to bring a large basket of red envelopes.
"Everyone has something, everyone has something..." Dengzhi stepped forward with a smile and distributed them, and everyone in the mansion was filled with joy.
Several children also kowtowed to Rong Che and Xu Shiyun.
A Ci hooked Lu Chaochao's finger, bent down and whispered in her ear: "Shall we go watch the fireworks?" Only us.
A Ci's voice made Lu Chaochao's ears itchy and gave her a strange feeling.
"Okay." While the Lu family wasn't paying attention, he pulled Lu Chaochao and quickly left the Lu family.
A breeze blew, and the air was filled with a hint of gunpowder smoke, which is the smell of the New Year.
When Lu Chaochao lowered her head, she found herself sitting on the clouds.
"This is the place closest to the fireworks."
Ah Ci was filled with joy, pursed his lips, his ears slightly red, and sat on the clouds with Lu Chaochao. The big hand slowly moved towards the little girl in his heart...
Approaching casually.
The back of his hand had already touched the back of Lu Chaochao's hand.
It feels so warm, and we are just one step away from holding hands.
His heart was pounding as he was thinking about how to hold her hand naturally.
Then I heard a loud bang...
