Chapter 2497 Strength
The bonsai with its branches and leaves spread out horizontally is not very convenient to hold.

The old man showed some embarrassment on his face.

"Xiaoxiao, it's not easy for you to hold me by yourself, right?"

"I'll carry you downstairs."

"Call another car."

"When we get to your house, ask your father to come out and carry it back with you."

……

Xiao Xiao smiled and shook his head.

"Grandpa Zhang, I can do it alone."

Without waiting for the old man to express his doubt, Xiao Xiao bent down and picked up the bonsai.

……

It really looks relaxed.

But the old man suspected that Xiaoxiao was trying to show off in front of him.

He wanted to reach out and help hold up the bonsai.

Xiao Xiao turned his body slightly.

"Grandpa Zhang, you don't need to help."

"Two people are actually tied up."

"Just help me watch the road ahead."

……

Since I have been assigned a task-
And Xiaoxiao is right.

His insistence on helping might actually hold the young people back.

The old man withdrew his hand.

"Then be careful."

"Go slower."

"Do not worry."

……

The old man kept reminding.

He took a few quick steps and walked in front of Xiao Xiao.

"Move forward."

……

The height of the bonsai just blocked Xiao Xiao's view.

Xiao Xiao just said that the old man could help him find the way.

……

The old man opened the door and was about to turn around to remind Xiaoxiao to put the bonsai on the cabinet in the entrance hall and put on his shoes, but he found that Xiaoxiao had straightened up and put on his shoes.

The bonsai was always held steadily in Xiaoxiao's arms.

There was no sign of embarrassment on the face vaguely revealed behind the needles.

Seeing this scene, the old man began to believe Xiaoxiao's words that he could hold the bonsai by himself.

……

"Xiaoxiao is very strong."

The old man sighed.

It's not like he hasn't seen young people before.

For example, his grandson.

It doesn't mean that young people have great strength.

If it were his grandson, he could lift a bonsai of this size.

But it definitely won’t be that easy.

……

Xiao Xiao smiled.

"Well, I am stronger than many people."

……

“I can’t tell…”

The old man always thought that the child was well-mannered.

After all, this is the first impression Xiaoxiao's appearance gives people.

"You can't judge a person by his appearance..."

The old man shook his head.

"No wonder I reminded your grandfather again and again that the things were big and might be difficult for one person to move."

"If possible, ask your father or your friends to come over."

"When I saw you alone before, I was worried..."

Thinking of his old body, I will help him, but I have to be careful not to hurt his waist...

Fortunately, his house is only on the second floor.

did not expect……

He really thought too much.

……

The kid is right.

He can do it alone.

……

The old man walked in front.

Xiao Xiao followed behind holding the bonsai.

……

"beware of the steps."

The old man half-turned his body, keeping an eye on Xiaoxiao who was coming down the stairs.

"step by step."

"Do not worry."

It would be terrible if this fell.

……

Xiao Xiao stepped down the last step steadily.

Compared to the "person involved" Xiao Xiao, the "onlooker" old man was more obviously relieved.

"Okay, okay, I'm finally down."

……

"How is it, Xiaoxiao, are you tired?"

The old man asked with concern.

"Put it on the ground first."

……"good."

Xiao Xiao is quick to accept advice.

Although he was not tired, he didn't mind doing it if it could make the old man feel at ease.

and……

"I'll call a car."

Xiao Xiao took out his cell phone.

……

"Grandpa Zhang, please go up."

"It's cold outside."

Xiao Xiao put away his phone and said, "The car I called will be here soon."

……

"fine."

The old man waved his hand, “I’ll see you get in the car before you go up.”

He was still a little worried about Xiaoxiao getting into the car alone with the bonsai.

……

Xiao Xiao didn't force the old man.

The old man's eyes fell on the little white ball in Xiao Xiao's arms, and a bit of surprise appeared on his face, "Hey, where was this little guy just now?"

The little white dumpling is so eye-catching.

The old man naturally noticed it the moment he opened the door.

But then, and of course now, he always thought that this small white ball was a kitten or a puppy.

……

The old man frowned in his heart at that time.

It is already difficult for one person to move the bonsai.

As a result, the child brought a little guy over...

Didn’t Lao Xiao tell Xiaoxiao that what he needed to move back was a rather large item?
The old man did not explicitly tell Lao Xiao that the gift he gave to the other party was a bonsai.

I just want to give the other person a surprise.

……

Although he was a little dissatisfied with Xiaoxiao's behavior of bringing the pet with him, the old man was still very happy to see the child he hadn't seen for a long time.

Xiaoxiao has always been popular with the elderly.

The older generation all like this sensible and smart child.

By the time he introduced his masterpiece, the old man had completely forgotten the existence of the little guy.

Now that he noticed this white ball, the old man remembered... Hey, where was this little white ball when Xiaoxiao was holding the bonsai just now?
Because the little white ball had always been in Xiaoxiao's arms.

.......
"In the hat."

Xiao Xiao turned his body slightly.

He motioned to the old man to look at the hat on his back.

……

"Oh."

The old man suddenly realized.

Then he looked at the little white ball in surprise, "What a smart little fellow."

"Did it run in there on its own?"

He didn't seem to remember hearing Xiaoxiao say anything like asking the little guy to get into the hat.

……

"Ah."

Xiao Xiao nodded.

He looked outside as if he realized something.

"Grandpa Zhang, the car is here."

As soon as he finished speaking, a car stopped not far away.

"Grandpa Zhang, I'm leaving."

Xiao Xiao picked up the bonsai.

This time the old man clearly saw the little white ball jump into Xiaoxiao's hat with nimble movements.

His eyes widened for a moment.

Then he realized what Xiaoxiao said.

"oh oh."

The old man subconsciously looked outside.

He took a step forward and followed Xiao Xiao to the side of the car.

……

The snow is still falling.

Not big.

Snowflakes fell gently on my body.

There is a hazy feeling between heaven and earth.

……

Xiao Xiao knocked on the car window gently.

Indicate that you are the one who ordered the car.

The driver was a little surprised to see Xiao Xiao holding such a big bonsai, and then opened the trunk of the car.

……

"Bang~"

Xiao Xiao closed the car hood.

He turned and smiled at the old man.

"Grandpa Zhang, please go back."

"It's snowing."

"You'll catch a cold easily."

Although the old man put on his hat when he went out because of his reminder.

He was just worried that the old man was too polite and wanted to see him off until he got on the bus.

It turned out that his worries were right.

……

"Hey, good."

The old man responded but didn't move.

Xiao Xiao smiled helplessly.
