Chapter 1201 News of Death
"Well, thank you Auntie."

After a few brief exchanges, Xiao Xiao, Zhuge Yun, and Zhao Lu climbed into the open trunk of the car and sat down, just as they had come.

Zhang Bo also got into the passenger seat.

"Drive carefully."

Auntie instructed Uncle Zhang.

"know."

Uncle Zhang responded, then waved his hand, "Then let's go."

"Goodbye, aunt."

Xiao Xiao and a few others said goodbye to their aunt one after another.

"Hey, goodbye."

My aunt stood there and watched the car disappear at the end of the road before she turned around and went into the house.

"Uncle, goodbye."

"Goodbye."

"Abo, and you guys, uncle always welcomes you to come and play."

"Don't be polite to me."

Then, Uncle Zhang said with some regret, "In the end, that kid Ah He still didn't see you."

"After all, Ahch is a candidate for the exam."

Zhang Bo smiled and said, "It can't be helped if the holiday is delayed."

"See you later, too."

"Ah."

Uncle Zhang looked at the time and said, "Okay, you guys go in quickly."

"Sit inside for a while and then you can check your tickets."

"Then uncle, let's go."

"Uncle Zhang, goodbye."

"Uncle Zhang, please go back."

After everyone waved to Uncle Zhang, they turned and walked towards the security checkpoint.

However, after entering the security check, everyone separated.

After all, each of them has a different destination.

"See you next year, brothers."

Zhang Bo grinned.

"See you next year."

After everyone smiled at each other, they dragged their suitcases towards the ticket gate marked on their tickets.

Walking on the familiar bluestone slabs, Xiao Xiao's heart became calmer.

The white walls and black tiles on both sides are somewhat peeling, revealing some traces of the wheels of time.

The branches sticking out from the wall are no longer as lush and green as they were in midsummer. They are sparse and scattered, yet they have a unique sense of openness and elegance.

Xiao Xiao raised his eyes.

Home is just ahead.

Xiao's Teahouse also posted couplets, blessing characters and hung red lanterns.

A joyous atmosphere.

Although it was New Year's Day, the teahouse was not very deserted.

They are all old people who come to drink tea and chat.

The children of these elderly people are not around and have not come to reunite with them so early, so they all come to the teahouse to kill time.

……

"Hey, Xiaoxiao, is school on vacation?"

"Xiaoxiao is back."

……

Several regular customers greeted Xiao Xiao when they saw him.

Xiao Xiao also responded with a smile.

"Xiaoxiao, are you back?"

When Xiao's mother heard the noise outside, she lifted the kitchen curtain and walked out.

Behind him followed Grandma Xiao, smiling so much that her eyes narrowed into slits, "Xiaoxiao is back."

"Mom, grandma, I'm back."

Xiao Xiao's eyebrows were curved.

"Hey, I'm glad you're back."

Mother Xiao's eyes and eyebrows showed a bit of joyful smile, and then asked with concern, "Are you tired on the road?"

She knew that Xiao Xiao had gone to Zhang Bo's uncle's house to play.

It’s still some distance away from Yanjing.

Without waiting for Xiao Xiao to answer, she had already made arrangements, "Your father and grandfather are in the kitchen, go tell them you are back, then go to the house and have a good rest."

"Mom, I'm not very tired."

Xiao Xiao shook his head slightly, "It's just that I haven't had tea for some time, and I miss our family's tea."

"Hey, good."

Mother Xiao carefully looked at Xiao Xiao's expression and found that the child did not look tired at all, so she smiled and agreed, "Then you can find a place to sit down later, I will bring you tea." "And snacks for Jiu and Bai."

Mother Xiao bent down and looked at the little white fox in Xiao Xiao's arms and the white snake on Xiao Xiao's wrist with a smile, "Ajiu, Abai, you miss the snacks at home, right?"

The little white fox opened its half-closed eyes, and the narrow corners of its eyes curved into a crescent shape, flashing with little rosy red light.

"hiss~"

The white snake stood up, and its silver scales were covered with a layer of gorgeous color under the halo of the red lantern, as if it had been smeared with bright rouge.

"hehe."

The reactions of the two little ones made Xiao's mother laugh even more happily.

"Don't worry, I will prepare a lot of delicious snacks for you."

Mother Xiao knew that although these two little guys were small in size, their appetites were amazing.

……

After Xiao Xiao greeted his father and grandfather, he found a seat by the window and sat down.

The rosewood carved screen next to it blocks out the hustle and bustle of the lobby.

The familiar and elegant tea fragrance came with every breath, making the curve of Xiao Xiao's mouth even more upbeat.

My heart also calmed down.

……

The little white fox and the white snake were also in a good mood.

Especially after hearing the familiar footsteps, their eyes lit up.

Xiao Xiao lowered his head as if he realized something, and a hint of amusement flashed across his face.

"Xiaoxiao."

Xiao's mother came out from behind the screen.

Xiao Xiao stood up, took a few steps forward, and took the tray from Xiao's mother.

The white fox jumped onto Xiao Xiao's shoulder and saw that there were only a teapot and teacups on the tray. Its sparkling eyes dimmed a little.

"hiss~"

The white snake stretched its body and then lay softly back on Xiao Xiao's wrist, its voice a little weak.

The two little guys' straightforward reactions made Xiao's mother couldn't help laughing.

"Sorry, tea is being made."

"It still needs a little time."

"It'll be ready soon."

"Ajiu, Abai, wait a moment."

Mother Xiao comforted the two disappointed kids.

Xiao Xiao placed the teapot and teacups on the table and said with a smile, "It's okay, Mom."

"Please ask Grandpa and Dad to take care of the guests first."

"I'll just take my time here."

The little white fox and the white snake looked at Xiao's mother very clearly.

The similar eye colors both reveal a bit of anxiety.

Coupled with the two high looks, the lethality was too great, and Xiao's mother was "broken" in an instant, "Ajiu, Abai, don't worry, the guests' refreshments are all here, and they are making your snacks in the kitchen now."

"I'll go take a look now, and send it to you when it's ready."

The little white fox and the white snake exude a cheerful atmosphere.

Xiao Xiao: ...

He shook his head slightly.

These two guys.

For the sake of snacks, people even "sell their bodies".

……

Xiao's mother went to the kitchen again.

Xiao Xiao poured himself a cup of tea, the aroma of the tea was wafting and the air was filled with refreshing fragrance.

Just when I was about to drink tea, "Buzz buzz buzz~", the sound of the cell phone vibrating came from my pocket.

After Xiao Xiao took a sip of tea and put down the cup, he took out his cell phone from his pocket.

Looking at the caller ID, he suddenly felt something.

Is it...

He answered the phone, "Boss."

"Third brother, Uncle Li is dead."

really.

"Just now, I received a call from my uncle, and he told me that Uncle Li had passed away."

"Ugh."

Zhang Bo sighed, "Uncle Li still didn't make it through this year."

"It's only a few days away."

"He said he passed away at home."

"That day, my uncle took them to the hospital and wanted to take them all the way to the ward."
