Chapter 183 Haggard Middle-aged Woman

"You two old people have worked so hard. You can't believe the child's parents left him to his parents again after he just came out of the hospital."

Mother Xiao felt a little emotional.

"The children also miss their parents, right? And the old people are getting old..."

Xiao's mother kept muttering to herself, took the towel from Xiao Xiao's hand, and started to wipe his hair.

Xiao Xiao did not refuse and responded to Xiao's mother from time to time.

……

After a period of heavy rain, the weather began to be sunny every day again.

"I know~I know~"

The noise of cicadas is endless.

The overly scorching sun seemed to be melting even the asphalt road, and pedestrians felt a bit of heat when they stepped on it even through their shoes.

Xiao Xiao raised the edge of the umbrella slightly, and the scenery in front of him looked like a mirage.

A layer of misty white light enveloped it, and the edges of the building became somewhat blurred and distorted.

Today is Saturday, and he was invited to Sister Yanyan's house for dinner.

Xiao's mother specially bought a lot of things for him to take with him.

He suddenly remembered that the last time Sister Yanyan came to his house she also brought a lot of bags, and he was doing the same now.

After all, this was the first official visit in many years.

……

"Coffee~"

Feifei lay weakly on Xiao Xiao's shoulder, feeling like steam was coming out of his head.

"Woo~"

Taotie also had a listless look on his face, with his limbs spread out. He pulled Xiao Xiao's hair with his claws with some disgust, and his hair was covered with sweat.

Xiao Xiao smiled helplessly, "I told you before that it was very hot outside and asked you to stay at home, but you didn't want to. Do you feel hot now?"

"Coffee~"

There was a hint of grievance in Feifei's soft voice.

How does it know it's so hot outside?

It just followed Xiao Xiao out of habit.

"Woo~"

Uncle Taotie regretted it. He had thought that this little monster had followed him out without hesitation, and if he didn't come out, it would seem that he was afraid of the heat. How could he be so useless?

Besides, who knows if they will eat delicious food with it on their backs when they are outside.

However, even with the umbrella blocking it, Taotie still felt waves of heat constantly rushing towards it, and the air he breathed was full of scorching heat.

As soon as Taotie opened his mouth, a small cluster of flames spewed out.

"Taotie."

The momentary burning sensation on his head made Xiao Xiao's brows twitch. If his hair or umbrella got burned, he would be the next one on the front page.

"A man suddenly appeared on the road with flames coming out of his head!"

Or "A man's umbrella on the street suddenly caught fire without any fire!"

Ha ha.

"Hiccup~"

Taotie burped and a few wisps of green smoke came out of his mouth.

"If you keep getting angry, forget about today's lunch. I see you're burping anyway."

Xiao Xiao spoke the threatening words lightly.

"Ah~" Taotie was furious, his mouth was opened to the extreme, revealing his ferocious fangs, flashing a cold light. The next second, Taotie closed his mouth listlessly, and a puff of air came out of his nose.

Humph, a great ancient demon like it would not bother to argue with a tiny human!
After thinking about it, he still felt a little uncomfortable, so he opened his mouth again. Although he could not spit out fire, he could spit out smoke. A few wisps of green smoke came out of Taotie's mouth.

Taotie vomited green smoke several times, intending to suffocate some damn human.

Xiao Xiao twitched his lips at the childish behavior of a certain Taotie.

Could it be that the power of this Taotie has been sealed, and its IQ has also degenerated?
However, he always thought that Taotie should not be afraid of heat. Can't it spit fire from its mouth?
Or is this Taotie more bizarre?

……

"Taotie, if you keep spitting out green smoke, forget about eating."

"Ouch~"

Taotie's voice was full of anger, but then he seemed to be gloating. Can't stand it? Hehe.

So, Uncle Taotie readily stopped spitting out green smoke. After spitting out smoke for a while, he was tired.

Since this human being has spoken of "surrendering" first, the Taotie demon will let him go.

...Xiao Xiao didn't care about Taotie's venting behavior. Anyway, he could disperse the smoke by raising his umbrella, and ordinary people couldn't see the smoke exhaled by Taotie.

However, this glutton is not going to stop yet?
It's such a hot day, but with a little smoke, it won't be too dry.

……

"Ding-dong~ding-dong~"

The door opened quickly, revealing Yu Yanyan's bright smile, "Xiaoxiao, you're here."

"Well, hello, Sister Yanyan."

"Come in."

Yu Yanyan handed Xiao Xiao a pair of slippers, then took the things from Xiao Xiao's hand and placed them on the cabinet beside her.

"Come if you want, why buy so many things?"

"Uncle Gu will be embarrassed to ask you to come over in the future."

Uncle Gu, whom I met at the Natural Water Plant, came out with a hearty laugh.

"Hello, Uncle Gu."

"Hey, good."

"What are you all doing standing by the door?"

"Why don't you let them in?"

Yu's mother also came out.

"Xiaoxiao?"

"Hello auntie."

"It's grown so big in the blink of an eye."

Mother Yu was quite emotional and took Xiao Xiao's hand and walked towards the living room.

"He was such a small child back then."

……

Walking into the living room, Xiao Xiao unexpectedly saw an unfamiliar middle-aged woman.

He sat on the sofa with a haggard look.

"This is my aunt." Seeing Xiao Xiao's puzzled expression, Yu Yanyan began to introduce her.

"Yan Yan, this is your cousin, right?"

"Yes, aunt, this is my cousin, Xiao Xiao."

"Hello, Xiao Xiao."

The woman smiled, but there was some fatigue in her brow.

"You can also follow Yanyan and call me aunt."

"Hello, aunt."

"Since today's guests are here, it's time for me to leave."

"Why are you leaving? It's almost time for dinner. Eat first before leaving." Yu's mother frowned slightly and said to the middle-aged woman.

"No, sister-in-law, I still have to go back to cook." The woman refused with a smile, and the reason she gave made it impossible for Yu's mother to keep her.

"Ok."

Yu's mother saw the girl to the door.

"Don't worry too much about this matter. You need to be more open-minded."

"Sometimes things are like this. The more you think about it, the less likely it is to happen. But if you stop thinking about it and calm down, there might be good news."

"Didn't you all go to the hospital? There's nothing wrong with the couple, how could it be possible..."

……

Yu's mother came back after a while, looking a little sad.

"Is your sister-in-law gone?" Uncle Gu stood up and walked towards Yu's mother.

"gone."

"Why don't you talk to your brother? Your sister-in-law is under a lot of pressure. If this continues, she will easily become depressed."

"Alas, I've said this several times before, but it's no use."

"After all, seeing that he is getting older, my younger brother, who was not too anxious at first, has also become anxious, not to mention the old man."

"My sister-in-law is anxious too."

"Haven't they been checked at the hospital? Both of them are fine."

"Yes, they tried a lot of folk remedies, but nothing worked."
