Chapter 82 Master Xiao and Bai Mei
"Chi Xiu Ke is completely well." Xiao Xiao said again lightly.

It was this understated tone that revealed an unquestionable certainty.

The Chi family felt as if they had taken a reassurance pill. They felt at ease and believed that Xiuxiu was really fully recovered.

……

"Brother Xiao, I want to ask, what happened to Xiuxiu?" Father Chi has always been confused about Xiuxiu's condition. Of course, not only him, but everyone who has seen Xiuxiu can't explain it.

Although they have always told others that Xiuxiu is sick, and it seems that Xiuxiu most likely has some mental illness.

But in Chi's father's opinion, Xiuxiu seemed a little bit possessed.

However, a son does not talk about strange things, so Chi's father kept this guess in his heart.

Chi's mother and Chi Xiuchuan and Chi Xiu Ke, the two siblings, all looked curious.

Xiao Xiao was stunned for a moment, thought for a moment and said slowly: "Chi Xiu Ke has something dirty attached to her."

He is not a doctor and will not tell lies that are easily exposed. It is best to tell it half-truthfully.

Everyone waited for a while, but found that Xiao Xiao stopped talking, and they couldn't help feeling confused.

"Then..." Chi Xiuchuan was about to ask something.

Xiao Xiao spoke first, "Sorry, I can't tell you anything else."

One lie requires multiple lies to cover it up. Xiao Xiao doesn't want to go through so much trouble. Anyway, Chi Xiu Ke's problem has been solved, so the other things don't matter, right?
Xiao Xiao's eyes were calm, but clearly revealed a rejection.

Father Chi stared at Xiao Xiao meaningfully for a while. He was a doctor himself and his family ran a hospital, so he was not completely ignorant of some supernatural things.

Maybe, this time I really met a master.

There was a hint of caution and respect in Chi's father's eyes.

……

After all this trouble, the sky was gradually getting dark.

Seeing this, Xiao Xiao also said goodbye.

Anyway, the problem has been resolved, why should he stay?
He refused Chi's father's suggestion to drive them home, but left his phone number so that they could contact him if Chi Xiu Ke had any questions in the future.

"Thank you, Master Xiao." Father Chi expressed his gratitude solemnly.

Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows in surprise at Chi's father's change of address, but didn't say much. Anyway, they might not meet again in the future, so why bother talking so much about it?
Moreover, his performance today did have a bit of a charlatan feel.

At the end, he said something like "the secret cannot be revealed", no wonder people misunderstood.

Hearing the name Chi's father addressed him, Chi's mother and the Chi brothers and sisters were a little surprised and puzzled at first, but then they understood that Xiao Xiao's performance was indeed worthy of this title.

Especially Chi Xiu Ke, although she was in a dazed state at that time, she was not unconscious after all. She could vaguely feel something, such as the touch of cold hair sliding across her face, the sudden strong wind in the closed room, and the vague words uttered by Xiao Xiao, all of which made her feel that Xiao Xiao was mysterious and unusual.

And the broken glass. I didn't react to it at the time, but now thinking about it, it was extremely abnormal.

The quality of her glass is bad? Is this a joke?

How can it be!

However, she also knew that some things should be kept in mind.

Xiao Xiao saved her, which made her grateful enough.

She won't talk about things that she shouldn't know.

Maybe Dad also noticed something, but he also chose to remain silent.

……

Chi's mother and Chi's brothers and sisters also expressed their gratitude afterwards.

"Master Xiao, thank you."

……

Xiao Xiao bid farewell to the Chi family and set out on his journey home.

"Hey, Feifei." Xiao Xiao turned his head to look at Feifei.

"Fei Fei~" Fei Fei tilted her head in confusion, her beautiful silver-blue pupils shining brightly.

“A lot of things really happened today.”

Xiao Xiao felt a little emotional.

"I feel a little tired."

"Yeah, I'm hungry too." "Feifei, are you hungry?"

"Coffee~"

"Then let's go home quickly."

"Coffee~"

……

Xiao Xiao stayed at home to help for the next few days.

After all, the end of the year is approaching, and New Year’s Eve, the time to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, is coming.

Xiao's Teahouse will remain open until New Year's Eve.

Even though there are not many customers, this is the tradition of Xiao's Teahouse and it has continued to this day.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and the streets that were extremely busy a few days ago are gradually becoming deserted.

After all, today is New Year's Eve.

……

Xiao's mother and grandmother started working early in the morning.

The pot was bubbling with steam and the sound of cutting vegetables could be heard. Mother Xiao and grandmother Xiao's faces were flushed and their eyes were filled with smiles that seemed to be overflowing.

The Xiao family’s New Year’s Eve dinner has always been the domain of Xiao’s mother and grandmother.

The men in the Xiao family just need to “sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labor”.

Besides, since Xiao’s Teahouse will be open until New Year’s Eve, Xiao’s father and grandfather will have to watch from the front.

And the biggest idler, Xiao Xiao, was surprised to find a white plum tree in a corner of his yard? !

The pure white petals have a faint, cool fragrance that is particularly refreshing.

Moreover, the sparse and oblique branches of the plum tree, matched with the white walls and black tiles behind, are so simple and elegant that one can't help but breathe more lightly.

"Mom, why are there white plum blossoms in our yard?" Xiao Xiao admired them for a while before running into the kitchen to ask his mother.

"Oh, your grandma picked it up."

"Picked it up?"

"Yes, I don't know who threw it on the roadside. I felt sorry for it, so I picked it up to see if I could keep it alive. After two years, it finally bloomed this year." Grandma Xiao was a little emotional and very happy. "It's a good omen."

"Hey, why didn't I know this before?"

"At that time, we didn't know whether we could support him or not, so we didn't tell him." Xiao Xiao was choked by her grandmother's matter-of-fact answer.

Well, Xiao Xiao was speechless for a moment, then ran to the yard to admire the plum blossoms.

Suddenly, Xiao Xiao felt a coolness on his face. He looked up and saw that it was indeed snowing.

In the blink of an eye, the sky was covered with white snow.

It was like pear blossom petals scattered in the sky, soft yet cold.

There are snowflakes flying in front of my eyes, but there is a faint sweet fragrance of plum blossom lingering on my nose. The already cold and clear air becomes even more clear and distant because of the plum blossom fragrance.

"Fei Fei~" Fei Fei raised his head, looking intoxicated.

Xiao Xiao couldn't help but laugh.

Seeing that there was no one around, he squatted down and rubbed the little guy's head.

Feifei rubbed Xiao Xiao's palm obediently.

"crunch~"

This was the sound of the courtyard door being pushed open. The Xiao family's courtyard door was not locked today.

Xiao Xiao stood up and looked over when he heard the sound. It turned out that his uncle and his family had arrived.

"Hello, brother!" My uncle's family has a pair of twins, a boy and a girl, who are three years younger than Xiao Xiao. When they saw Xiao Xiao when they entered the door, they greeted him enthusiastically.

"Hello, uncle and aunt, hello, Xiaoqi and Xiaolin."

……

　ps: Starting tomorrow I will update twice a day, in the evening.
