Chapter 180 Visit
Yu Yanyan called and agreed with Xiao Xiao on a time for a home visit.
"Mom said she won't come."
Xiao Xiao's former aunt has always been a decisive person and doesn't like to drag things out. She is no longer the daughter-in-law of the Yu family, and has no connection with the Xiao family. She has been living like this for ten years, and she doesn't want to create any complications.
She was a widow who remarried just one year after her husband's death and had a child, but her current husband is a first-time bride.
The Gu family was very good to her and to her Yanyan, so she always thought more about the Gu family.
However, Yanyan is a child of the Yu family, and she will not stop her from getting close to the Xiao family.
Moreover, she knew that everyone in the Xiao family was a good person.
Back then, she remarried with her child so quickly, and there were some rumors, but the Xiao family did not blame her at all.
"Okay, I got it. Say hello to my aunt for me."
"Well, I will."
……
That morning, around ten o'clock, Yu Yanyan walked into Xiao's Teahouse.
When Xiao Xiao looked up, he saw Yu Yanyan looking at the teahouse with a nostalgic look on her face, and he walked quickly towards her.
"Sister Yanyan, you are here."
Xiao Xiao greeted with a smile.
"Yeah." Yu Yanyan retracted her gaze and looked at Xiao Xiao, "Xiao's Teahouse really hasn't changed at all."
"I thought after so many years, I would have forgotten most of it."
“But once you walk in here, the familiarity hits you.”
There was joy and nostalgia in Yu Yanyan's tone, and the nervousness and awkwardness she had felt before coming here disappeared in this familiarity.
"Yan Yan?"
"Is it Yanyan?"
Xiao's mother came out of the kitchen and saw the graceful girl in the hall. She looked vaguely familiar.
"aunt."
Yu Yanyan couldn't help but take a few steps forward to greet Xiao's mother who was walking towards her.
Seeing Xiao's mother's somewhat excited expression, Xiao Xiao stepped forward to support her, "Mom, let's go to the back to talk?"
They have already attracted the attention of the guests.
"Oh, yes." Xiao's mother knew yesterday that Yanyan would come today, and she had already prepared herself mentally. But when she saw him in person today, she was still a little excited that she could hardly control herself.
"Yanyan, come, go to the back with your aunt."
"Okay, Auntie."
Yu Yanyan was overwhelmed with emotions when she met her aunt who loved her very much when she was a child again after many years.
……
Mother Xiao held Yu Yanyan's hand and sat on the sofa, looking carefully at the child she hadn't seen for a long time.
"It looks like, it really looks like."
"Yanyan, you look so much like your father."
"Really? After all, a daughter looks like her father."
Yu Yanyan said playfully.
"haha, yes."
Mother Xiao lowered her head and wiped the slightly moist corners of her eyes, then looked up again with a smile on her face and eyes full of kindness.
"Yanyan, it seems that you are doing well. Then auntie is relieved."
Yu Yanyan pretended not to notice Xiao's mother wiping her tears. Even though they hadn't seen each other for so many years, Xiao's mother made her feel close to her so easily.
"Aunt, I'm fine."
"It's just that I missed you so much over the years."
"I miss grandma too. I didn't expect..."
"Yes, your grandmother was still thinking about you when she was dying. She was worried about whether your new father was treating you well. She wondered how you were doing in your new family. Did you have enough to eat? Did you have warm clothes?"
……
Xiao Xiao did not disturb the aunt and niece who had been reunited after a long separation. They obviously had a lot to say to each other during the years they were apart.
Xiao's mother went to the market early this morning and bought a lot of vegetables, and started working when she came back.
Now the kitchen is filled with the rich and tempting aroma of chicken soup.
……
After lunch, Yu Yanyan stayed until three o'clock in the afternoon before saying goodbye and leaving.
Xiao's mother didn't let Yu Yanyan stay for dinner, after all, her parents were still waiting at home.
Besides, we are already in touch now, and there is still a lot of time. Can't having a meal just be a matter of a phone call?
"Yan Yan, be careful on the way back. Come and play with your aunt next time when you have time."
"Yes, Auntie, I will."
"Then I'm leaving, aunt." "Xiaoxiao, see Yanyan off."
"No..." No, before Yu Yanyan could say no, Xiao Xiao had already agreed.
"Ok."
Seeing this, Yu Yanyan smiled helplessly and could only accept her aunt's kindness.
……
Xiao Xiao accompanied Yu Yanyan all the way to the bus stop.
"Xiaoxiao, I am very happy today."
Yu Yanyan had a bright face and a brilliant smile.
"Thank you for recognizing me earlier."
"Although I didn't see my grandmother for the last time, my aunt is doing well, and Xiao's Teahouse is just as I remember it, it's really good."
“It feels like my childhood days are still vividly present.”
Xiao Xiao was infected by Yu Yanyan's good mood and also curled up the corners of his mouth.
"My mother is happy to see you, too."
"Well, I'm glad to see my aunt, too."
"I've already gone to burn incense for Father Yu and Grandma."
"A man talked a lot at their grave."
“I don’t know if they’ll find me annoying.”
……
The girl who seemed a bit serious at first sight was now happy. Her teeth sparkled in the sun and her curved eyebrows revealed a bit of her girlish innocence.
Xiao Xiao listened quietly, agreeing from time to time, until the bus arrived, Yu Yanyan finally reacted.
"Oops, sorry, I seem to have talked too much."
Yu Yanyan tried hard to keep a straight face, but a light blush spread across her cheeks.
"will not."
Xiao Xiao smiled and shook his head.
"Haha." Yu Yanyan also laughed, "Then I'll leave."
"Well, Sister Yanyan, goodbye."
"Goodbye, Xiaoxiao."
……
Only after watching the bus disappear in the rolling traffic did Xiao Xiao turn around and walk home.
……
"Is Yanyan in the car?"
When she got home, Xiao's mother asked.
"Ah."
Xiao Xiao nodded.
"That's good."
"Ah, the little girl back then has grown into a beautiful young lady now."
“Time flies by so fast.”
Mother Xiao felt quite emotional.
"I didn't expect this girl still remembers me and the Yu family."
"She still remembers Xiao's Teahouse."
Xiao Xiao joked.
"Yes." Xiao's mother couldn't help but laugh, "That girl also said that Xiao's Teahouse is exactly the same as when she came here as a child, and there is no change at all."
"That girl seems to like Xiao's Teahouse very much."
“I miss the refreshments here too.”
Hearing this, Xiao Xiao also laughed. It seemed that Xiao's snacks were loved by both humans and monsters.
……
"Kacha~"
"Boom~"
"Wow~"
After a burst of lightning and thunder, heavy rain poured down.
Everything in front of me was covered with a thin layer of mist, and the sound of rain continued in my ears, and it seemed like there was a roar.
