Chapter 4117: Similar or Unlike
Old Mrs. Xiao found it somewhat amusing.

"You..."

……

Grandma Zhao touched her neck and coughed softly a few times.

"Seriously..."

"I never thought of giving the stone sculpture away..."

Some of her previous remarks were made in jest.

She knew that the stone sculpture would not be a welcome gift.

Big and bulky.

"But you know, I'm moving."

“This stone sculpture is inconvenient to carry.”

"The old man and the kids all persuaded me to get rid of it."

"They even said that I didn't need to deal with it."

"Just put it in the old house."

“If the new owner likes it, they can keep it.”

"If you don't like it, throw it away."

"Or, you can just smash it."

……

“…I hesitated for a long time and didn’t agree.”

Grandma Zhao pursed her lips.

“I bought this stone sculpture.”

"It has been in my home for many years."

“There is always some sentimentality about old things.”

"But I really don't plan to take it to a new home."

"I thought and thought..."

“…I thought of you.”

Grandma Zhao held her phone tightly.

"Your house is big."

"There is another yard..."

What Old Lady Xiao said before was all right.

If we were to ask who among her friends is most likely to accept the stone sculpture, it would definitely be Old Lady Xiao.

"Feel sorry."

Grandma Zhao lowered her eyelids.

"I took it for granted."

"If you don't like it..."

"You can do whatever you want with it."

"It's okay with me."

Now that I think about it, her actions were indeed a bit too hasty.

We kept it a secret, and people thought it was a surprise, but it turned out to be a shock...

She really didn't think too much about it at first.

I simply thought that Mrs. Xiao's house could accommodate her stone sculpture...

……

"okay."

Old Mrs. Xiao waved her hand.

She forgot they were on the phone and Grandma Zhao couldn't see her movements.

"My grandson worked so hard to bring it back..."

"Why not?"

"It's a gift from you after all."

"Um……"

“It’s a very special gift.”

……

"really?"

Grandma Zhao was stunned. "Are you really willing to accept it?"

Then she thought of what Mrs. Xiao said before, and Grandma Zhao nodded, "Yeah."

"Thank you for the hard work, Xiaoxiao."

"Especially when I encountered other things on the way home..."

Fortunately, she insisted on letting Xiaoxiao take a taxi back.

The stone sculpture can be placed behind the car, so you don’t have to hold it all the time…

Uh……

If Xiaoxiao didn't take a taxi, he wouldn't have encountered the following oolong incident...

Hey.

Grandma Zhao doesn't worry about it.

This matter is so complicated that it is hard to explain.

Anyway, things have happened, so don't think about what ifs.

……

"Should I give him a gift later?"

Grandma Zhao pondered, "Is there anything Xiaoxiao wants recently?"

……

"What gift?"

Old Mrs. Xiao doesn't mind friends giving gifts to her grandson.

But let’s forget about this excuse.

"That's what he should do."

"Besides, he is the one who is confident that he can do it alone."

"You reminded me before, and I told him to bring his friends along..."

"He doesn't call out himself."

At this point, Old Lady Xiao glared at her grandson slightly.

In any case, the size of this stone sculpture is there, and its weight is certain.

Wouldn't it be better to call one more person to make the move easier?

This child just likes to show off.

……

Xiao Xiao smiled innocently at Old Mrs. Xiao.

……

"Haha."

Grandma Zhao smiled and shook her head, "I know what's going on." No matter what, Xiaoxiao came here to move the stone sculptures this time, and she wanted to do something to thank that child.

……

"Are you really willing to accept this stone sculpture?"

Grandma Zhao confirmed again.

"You don't have to force it."

"dislike……"

Grandma Zhao paused, thinking of her children's suggestion, "...just smash it."

……

"oops."

Old Mrs. Xiao raised her eyebrows.

"What are you smashing?"

"Are you willing?"

"Didn't you say you have feelings for it?"

"Besides, even if it's because my grandson worked so hard to bring it back, I won't smash it."

"All right."

"Don't think too much."

"Although I don't really like this stone sculpture..."

Old Mrs. Xiao is very honest.

……

Grandma Zhao smiled bitterly.

It’s hard work but there’s a sense of relief.

Old Mrs. Xiao is not the kind of person who would force herself or pretend to be strong.

Like is like.

If you don't like it, you don't like it.

She liked this kind of honesty.

They are all quite old.

Why bother with all this nonsense?
It is wrong to take advantage of one's seniority.

But at their age, they do have some qualifications to "take advantage of their seniority".

……

"…but I don't hate it so much that I want to smash it or turn a blind eye to it."

Old Mrs. Xiao glanced at the little white fox in her grandson's arms.

"and……"

"It's a coincidence."

Old Mrs. Xiao smiled.

……

"what?"

What coincidence doesn’t Grandma Zhao understand?
……

"You also know that Xiaoxiao has a pet fox..."

As soon as Mrs. Xiao said this, Grandma Zhao suddenly said "Oh" in a somewhat enlightened tone.

……

Old Mrs. Xiao smiled.

"This stone sculpture of yours looks quite similar to Ajiu, Xiaoxiao's pet."

"Next time someone comes to my house and sees the stone sculpture, they might think we carved a stone statue especially for Jiu."

Thinking of that scene, a smile appeared on Old Mrs. Xiao's face.

It’s fun, isn’t it?
……

After a brief moment of stunned silence, Grandma Zhao smiled.

"oops……"

"I wouldn't have thought of it if you hadn't told me..."

Why is she so careless?

Didn't you notice something so obvious?
She thought about it now...

The stone sculpture of a fox...does look like Xiaoxiao's pet.

They are all foxes after all...

……

Ah Jiu...

That’s the name of Xiaoxiao’s pet fox.

It's really a beautiful fox.

It fits everyone's imagination of a fox after seeing the gorgeous and beautiful description.

She had seen Ajiu more than once.

It's amazing every time.

Ajiu is so beautiful that she doesn't seem like a real creature.

Perhaps it was because the stunning impressions left by each meeting were too deep, and it was difficult for her to...

Link the rough stone sculpture of a fox with the spiritual Ajiu.

How are they alike?

They are similar.

Similar facial features, ears, tail...

But they are very different...

……

"……Won't."

Grandma Zhao murmured.

Some inexplicable words made Old Lady Xiao look confused.

"what?"

What won't?
……

Grandma Zhao was a little surprised.

Did she just speak?

She didn't even notice...

……

"...I don't think anyone would think that the stone sculpture is Ah Jiu."

Grandma Zhao explained.

"Ajiu is so smart."

That stone sculpture is totally off the mark.
