Chapter 2139: The Warmth and Coldness of the World
"I don't think so."

The scholars are very excited these days.

I just feel the inspiration is endless.

There is no way to calm down and rest for a while.

"Yes."

Xiao Xiao affirmed, "You don't look very good."

"what?"

Since Master Xiao Xiao said so, the scholar nodded, "I understand."

But sometimes when it gets excited, it might forget its promise.

Xiao Xiao smiled.

It's good that the scholar is willing to listen to his advice.

He changed the subject.

"Why didn't a shadow appear behind you when you painted this time?"

This was also the doubt he had when he saw the scholar.

Previously at the art exhibition, as the scholar put pen to paper, the contents of the painting would appear behind him.

Especially magical.

Why is it gone this time?
"what?"

After being stunned for a moment, the scholar smiled knowingly and said, "Maybe it's the problem with the paint."

"Because of these pigments, this painting was more difficult for me to paint than the previous ones."

These pigments cannot convey its magical power well.

The brush in its hand is no longer as flexible as before.

It turned out to be the case.

Xiao Xiao understood.

"That"

Did he make a not-so-good suggestion before?

It turns out that scholars are not suitable for painting with human pigments.

"but."

The scholar's excited voice interrupted Xiao Xiao's unfinished words.

“This is a great painting!”

"I know."

"I'll finish a great painting!"

is it?

Xiao Xiao did not mention what he had just been interrupted about.

He laughed.

"I am looking forward."

“This painting will be a breakthrough for me.”

The scholar's mouth kept opening and closing.

The excitement was palpable.

“After finishing this painting, the day when I can truly complete a painting on my own is not far away!”

"I"

The scholar looked up at Baimei in front of him.

Then he was stunned.

It raised its head.

Hey?
这 是
The scholar looked out at the sky.

".It's raining."

"I do not even know."

Didn’t you notice the heavy rain?
Xiao Xiao sighed with a smile.

The scholar was indeed very focused when he was painting.

"Thank you."

The scholar bent slightly towards Baimei.

I have been painting white plum blossoms for so many days.

The scholar was confident that he knew every branch and every flower of the white plum tree.

Originally, there were no branches on its head as densely intertwined as they are now.

Why did this change happen?

After noticing the heavy rain outside, it finally understood.

The scholar was somewhat touched.

Plum women have a cool and aloof temperament.

Recently.
Except for the day when Lord Xiao Xiao sent it here, it has never seen Mei Nu.

As soon as Lord Xiao Xiao left, Mei Nu also disappeared.

There's no intention of paying any attention to it at all.

did not expect.
In fact, Mei Nu is not as repulsive as her appearance suggests.

It is a gentle monster.

"wait for me a while."

Xiao Xiao turned and walked into the house.

When he came out again, Xiao Xiao was holding a plate of snacks in his hand.

There is also a pot of tea and three teacups.

Xiao Xiao placed the snacks, teapot and teacups on the stone table.

"Try it."

He pushed the snack in the scholar's direction.

“They all like to eat it.”

Xiao Xiao looked around and looked at the monsters here curiously.

"I thought it might suit your taste."

is it?

The scholar blinked.

Since Master Xiao Xiao said so
It’s hard to refuse such hospitality.

The scholar reached out and picked up a piece of dessert.

Xiao Xiao added tea to a cup.

Wisps of white mist rose up.

"How about it?"

Xiao Xiao pushed the teacup in front of the scholar.

"Is it tasty?"

The scholar swallowed the snack in his mouth and nodded in surprise, "It's delicious."

There was a hint of surprise between his eyebrows. "That's good."

Xiao Xiao smiled.

The flavors of monsters are basically quite similar.

"Try the tea again."

"My family runs a teahouse."

With the taste of the snack still lingering in his mouth, the scholar had high expectations for the tea.

The cup of tea was brought to his lips.

The rich tea scent came forth.

The mist blurred its eyes.

The scholar took a sip of tea.

His brows furrowed slightly.

A bit bitter.

After a few seconds, the light aftertaste makes its brows relax.

"Like it?"

Xiao Xiao did not miss the change in the scholar's expression.

"like."

The scholar nodded.

Xiao Xiao smiled knowingly, "Do you prefer snacks or tea?"

"dessert."

The scholar is very honest.

Xiao Xiao laughed.

He also thought that scholars would prefer drinking tea.

really.

Don't judge a monster by its appearance.

"Then eat more."

Xiao Xiao pointed to the snacks on the table.

"You are welcome."

He poured another cup of tea.

"Plum girl."

he called softly.

"Would you like a cup of tea?"

A beautiful monster in the shape of a woman appeared above the tree trunk.

She came to Xiao Xiao's side.

"Thank you, Master Xiao Xiao."

Mei took the teacup.

Xiao Xiao finally poured himself a cup of tea.

The rain pattered.

The fragrance of tea lingers.

There is a sense of quietness and tranquility.

The scholar's painting was progressing well. After Xiao Xiao finished his tea, he got up and left.

Now that he was out, Xiao Xiao went to the hospital again.

Mr. Zhao was very happy to see Xiao Xiao.

"Little friend Xiao Xiao."

The old man was smiling happily.

Xiao Xiao noticed the flower baskets and fruit baskets that were not there in the old man’s ward before.

The old man's expression was somewhat complicated.

"They sent it."

"After all, the old man helped them so much."

"Do not."

The old man shook his head again.

"It was Xiao Xiao who helped the old man and them so much."

"I told them that the money was from the old man selling pearls."

"It's also the old man's last savings."

"Don't come to the old man next time you need money."

After all, Mr. Zhao has traveled all over the country for many years.

Seen a lot.

He didn't tell his family the truth.

He was afraid that if they knew that the money was not raised from selling pearls but borrowed from others, they would come to him again and again to borrow money.

All the while keeping his eyes on his pearls.

He even targeted little friend Xiao Xiao.

This is what he doesn't want to see.

Just think of it as his petty intentions.

The old man sighed.

He didn't want to think of his family that way either.

It was just that their performance in borrowing the money this time made him worry like this.

He wouldn't give them the chance to do so.

It will not cause any extra trouble to Xiao Xiao.

Xiao Xiao smiled.

"Mr. Zhao, let me peel an apple for you."

How the elderly handle household affairs is their choice.

He respects the old man's choice.

"it is good."

Mr. Zhao was not polite to the young man in front of him.

He didn't talk about the previous topic again.

He had told the other party everything he needed to know, and he didn't want to continue to trouble the other party with his own affairs.

Things at home have finally come to an end.

He also breathed a sigh of relief.

But the neglected ward made him smile bitterly.

He doesn't blame his family.

He is away from home all year round.
