Chapter 3171 The Third Result

Xiao Xiao knew that there must be some reason behind this.

……

"It's the old woman who wants to pretend."

The old man looked at the old lady.

"The old man agrees, too."

……

The old lady smiled.

“In fact, I thought about it a long time ago…”

"But it's just an idea, and the desire to realize it is not very strong."

"But didn't we have a picnic here last time you were here?"

……

Xiao Xiao nodded.

Yes.

They spread out their picnic mat under the maple tree.

What they ate were the maple leaf crisps that filled the table.

……

"I thought, I can't let you sit on the ground every time you come..."

"I asked someone to make this set of stone tables and stone benches."

"You can sit down when you come."

The old lady narrowed her eyes.

Although smiling.

A sigh escaped from his throat.

She stroked the stone table gently.

"...Like I just said..."

“I had this idea a long time ago…”

"Not just once."

"You only know..."

The old lady looked at Xiao Xiao.

"How much Qingzhu loves this maple tree."

She knew the reason.

Love the house and the bird.

The maple tree witnessed all the past of the boy and the girl.

After the girl disappeared, the maple tree became the child's only thought.

“Even after he moved out, he came back almost every week.”

Sometimes she would even wonder whether the child came to see them and the maple tree as a by-product, or whether seeing them was a byproduct and seeing the maple tree was the main purpose.

after all……

"That child always stands under the maple tree for a long time."

“…I feel sad when I see this.”

Thinking of the past, the old lady sighed.

"I thought of making a set of stone benches so that the child could sit on them."

“It’s not that tiring.”

"But……"

The old lady shook her head.

"You also know the attitude between me and your Grandpa Xu at that time..."

They strongly disapproved of Qingzhu continuing to indulge in the past few years he spent with the girl.

When their relationship with their child was at its most strained, they even hated the girl.

Even if they have never met.

They didn't understand. Why could a childhood playmate harm such an excellent child like theirs?
"If I make a stone bench, wouldn't that be encouraging the children in disguise?"

Encourage your children to reminisce about the past under the maple tree...

"After thinking about it this way, I gave up the idea."

The old lady looked a little dazed.

It's like being immersed in memories of the past.

"You know, we wanted to cut down the maple tree."

“I think this maple tree is really a nuisance.”

She was really fed up with her son's lost look under the maple tree.

Very distressed too.

Conflicting emotions tugged at her heart.

Make her both hope that the girl will appear and not hope that the girl will appear.

did not think of……

Finally the girl showed up.

She actually showed up...

But it was different from everything she imagined...

The old lady came to her senses.

She looked toward the maple tree.

"Feel sorry."

"Those were just angry words I said in the past."

The old lady smiled embarrassedly.

Actually the idea is true.

But what he said in anger is also true.

She knew that if they really dealt with the maple tree, the relationship between them and Qingzhu...

She couldn't imagine what it would become.

Yes.

It's just a maple tree.

It's not that girl.

……

She never imagined at the time that her words would come true.

……

Children will not turn against them because of a tree.

but……

She knew that there would definitely be a knot in the child's heart from then on.

There will be a crack in the relationship between them.

Can't make up for it.

She didn't want this to happen. So, even if she was angry, she never did anything that would be the most "once and for all" or the most extreme.

The child's life gradually got back on track.

They were very relieved.

The only thing that remains unchanged is the child's care for the maple tree.

They are used to it too.

There is no longer the intense reaction to this matter that there was in the first few years.

Anyway, the children have started their own families and have their own children.

Since the children like maple trees, and they only need to see the maple trees once a week, then they can just come and see them.

They just thought the children were visiting them.

Take a look at the maple trees.

They thought that was the end of it.

Maybe one day, they will be surprised to find that their children have not visited them or the maple tree for more than a week.

Perhaps children will keep this habit until the day they close their eyes.

They never thought...

They actually waited for the third result.

……

so……

The old lady looked emotional.

Things in this world are so unpredictable.

No one can predict what will happen in the future?
……

The boy glanced at the old lady.

He tilted his head and looked at the maple tree again.

It was the first time he saw someone else apologize to Maple.

Still an old man.

……

"Okay, okay, everyone sit down first."

The old man motioned for everyone to take a seat.

"Sit down and talk about it."

……

"What are you sitting on?"

The old lady rolled her eyes at the old man.

"Aren't we making other people's children feel restrained by being here?"

……

what?
The boy was stunned.

Are you talking about him?
Although what the old lady said was correct, he waved his hands hastily, "No..."

"No……"

……

"Grandma Shen, if you leave, we will be embarrassed to keep you."

Xiao Xiao smiled.

Aren’t they the guests “driving away” the host by doing this?

……

"Harmful."

The old lady narrowed her eyes and smiled.

"That's what I said."

"Aren't you here to see the maple tree?"

"We are here, and if you have to worry about us, you won't be able to enjoy the scenery properly."

"How about this."

The old lady offered a compromise, "Let's sit for a while."

"And then leave."

……

"it is good."

Xiao Xiao had a smile on his face.

……

Ok……

Xiao Xiao found that there were only two tea bowls on the table.

The old lady really had no intention of staying from the beginning.

Xiao Xiao laughed and shook his head.

He pushed the cup filled with tea in front of the two old men.

……

Without waiting for the two old men to raise any objections, Xiao Xiao explained with a smile, "We are not thirsty."

"We have maple crisps so that's all we need."

……

"How is that possible?"

The old lady didn't believe Xiao Xiao's explanation.

"Wait a minute, I'll get two more cups."

Before she finished her words, the old lady stood up and left in a hurry.

……

Xiao Xiao smiled helplessly.

Originally he wanted to say that he went to get it.

But thinking that this was the home of the two elderly people, it would not be appropriate for an outsider like him to rummage around in the house...

However, the old lady did not give him the opportunity to recommend himself.

The movements are very neat.

……

"Just wait a moment."

The old man looked very kind when he smiled.

"The old lady will be back soon."

"Come."

"Eat the maple leaf crisps first."

……

The old man is very enthusiastic.

"Master Xiao, try it and see if my cooking skills have improved."
