Chapter 451 Happy New Year
Just now when Xiao Xiao said he wanted to help water the plants, Xiao's mother hesitated for a while before reluctantly agreeing.
……
"Fungus, is it good to live here?"
After finally waiting for Xiao's mother, who was a little worried, to leave, Xiao Xiao asked softly.
The mushroom man stood on the mushroom cap and bent deeply towards Xiao Xiao, "Gugu~Gugu~"
Sir Xiao Xiao, welcome back.
Yes, I have a good life here.
Everyone is very nice to me.
So, thank you so much, Lord Xiao Xiao.
……
"That's good."
Xiao Xiao curled the corners of his mouth slightly. In fact, looking at Xiao's mother's nervous look, he knew that the mushroom man would live well at home.
Moreover, when Xiao Xiao looked up, the pigeon and the baby spoon flew over. The pigeon landed on Xiao Xiao's empty left shoulder and rubbed Xiao Xiao's cheek, "Chirp~"
The baby spoon was a step slower and had to stop beside the pigeon. It tilted its head and called to Xiao Xiao cheerfully, "嘤嘤~"
……
The pigeon turned around and greeted the fungus man cheerfully.
As expected of a "friendship expert", the 鴖 has established a very good relationship with the fungus people.
Moreover, seeing the fungus man showing a happy smile to the pigeon, it is obvious that the fungus man also likes the pigeon.
The baby spoon raised its chin slightly and called out to the fungus man in a rather arrogant manner, "嘤~"
Compared to the relaxation when facing the pigeon, the fungus man seemed a little restrained when facing the baby spoon, but the smile in his eyes was real.
The fungus man is also somewhat aware of the "hard mouth but soft heart" of the baby spoon.
……
Living here, the Mushroom Man doesn't have to worry about his mushrooms being picked, and he has good friends to keep him company. No wonder his face is rosy and he seems to have gained a lot of weight when he came back this time?
Xiao Xiao's fingers subconsciously poked the fungus man's brown cheek.
The fungus man's cheeks suddenly turned red, but he did not fall down like the first time he was poked.
It seems that the little monster's vitality has indeed recovered a lot.
Xiao Xiao thought to himself, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and smiled, "Sorry."
"Cuckoo~"
The Fungus Man twisted his hands together and shook his head quickly, indicating that he didn't care at all.
"Ah."
Xiao Xiao chuckled and stretched out his fingers to gently rub the fungus man's head.
The mushroom-like hair of the fungus man always makes him itchy.
……
Xiao Xiao placed a lounge chair under the white plum tree and lay on it leisurely in the cold weather, holding an ancient book in his hand, the content of which was naturally related to gods and ghosts.
The faint cool fragrance of white plum blossoms floats in the icy air, chilling but also refreshing.
It makes people feel particularly clear-minded, refreshed and relaxed.
……
Feifei lay on his belly, dozing with his eyes closed and his big tail wrapped around his body.
From Xiao Xiao's perspective, it looked more and more like a snowball, but it was a snowball with red patterns.
Taotie was still lying on top of Xiao Xiao's head. After it failed to eat the plum petals and was flicked by Xiao Xiao's finger, Taotie spread out his limbs with a somewhat resentful mood and a "life is hopeless" face, but his eyes under his armpits were still looking at the plum blossoms above with a bit of covetousness and eagerness.
It looks delicious.
……
"Xiaoxiao, are you really not cold?"
Xiao's mother came over again, looking at Xiao Xiao's hand holding the book with some concern as he was not wearing any thick clothes.
Especially when he felt the biting cold wind blowing on his exposed cheeks, his expression became even more worried.
……
"Mom, I'm really not cold."
Xiao Xiao smiled somewhat helplessly.
If it wasn't so comfortable lying here, he wouldn't want to be such an eyesore to Xiao's mother.
"……All right."
Seeing that Xiao Xiao didn't seem to be lying, Xiao's mother responded reluctantly, turning back every three steps, hesitant to speak, and walked into the house. Xiao Xiao shrugged and lay back on the chair. The rich and cold fragrance of white plums instantly filled his nose and enveloped his whole body.
He looked up and saw the simple and elegant plum blossoms, which were small and thin as cicada wings. A slight sunlight from the sky penetrated through, making their translucent beauty even more apparent.
Xiao Xiao couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth slightly, looking relaxed and comfortable.
……
In the blink of an eye, it is time to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new.
"Brush~"
Xiao Xiao opened the window. It was dawn and the cool air blew in his face, dispelling the warmth in the room.
"Chirp~"
"嘤嘤~"
The pigeon and the baby spoon were already waiting at the window, flapping their wings.
As soon as they saw Xiao Xiao behind the open window, the two little monsters immediately flew over and circled around Xiao Xiao.
"Good morning, pigeon, baby spoon."
Also, Xiao Xiao's eyebrows curved slightly, "Happy New Year, pigeon, baby spoon."
"啾啾~啾啾~"
"Boohoo~Boohoo~"
Good morning, Lord Xiao Xiao!
Happy New Year, Lord Xiao Xiao!
The Owl and the Baby Spoon said in unison. The two little monsters who had stayed in the human world for a long time also vaguely knew what day it was today. After Xiao Xiao said "Happy New Year" to them, the two little monsters suddenly remembered that humans did like to say this sentence today.
Although they didn't quite understand the specific meaning of this sentence, Yu and Yingshao still said the same words of blessing to Xiao Xiao with full energy.
……
"Happy New Year, Feifei."
Xiao Xiao tilted his head and smiled at the white monster who was lying on his shoulder as always, and then said with some emotion, "This is the second year we have spent together."
Thinking of Feifei's sneaky look when they first met, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but have a hint of teasing and a big smile on his face.
"Coffee~"
Feifei saluted with both paws, and just like last year, gave Xiao Xiao an awkward bow, with silver-blue light sparkling in her crescent-shaped eyes.
"Ha~"
Xiao Xiao couldn't help but chuckle and reached out to rub the head of a funny little monster.
……
"Happy New Year, little Taotie."
Xiao Xiao raised his eyes, looked at the faint pale sky in the sky, and said to the Taotie who was already lying on his head very consciously.
"Ow~"
Although Taotie looked a little impatient, he still replied reluctantly: Happy New Year.
In response, Xiao Xiao smiled deeply, but did not expose the monster's "pretense".
After all, he was already used to this kind of gluttony.
……
After wishing a happy new year to the bighead carp, red carp and pearl beetle one by one, Xiao Xiao went downstairs in a happy mood.
Well, then only Fungus Man is left who hasn’t said Happy New Year yet.
……
Xiao Xiao walked slowly towards the paulownia tree.
He didn't bring a kettle because Xiao's mother, who had gotten up earlier than him, must have already watered the mushrooms.
……
It was still early and the air was still misty.
Without deliberately smelling it, the faint cold fragrance of winter plums lingers in your nose.
Xiao Xiao couldn't help but take a deep breath, and immediately the fragrance filled his nose and refreshed his heart.
……
"Cuckoo~"
The mushroom man not far away saw Xiao Xiao approaching and stood up with a grunt. However, he moved too quickly and his foot slipped and he was about to fall off the mushroom cap. His two little hands were waving wildly in the air.
ps: Thank you book friend Ding Bangshuo for the reward (*︶*)!
