Chapter 867 Someone Wants to Buy White Plum
"Uncle Jin, Aunt Yu, Xiao Lingling, I'm leaving now."

"Goodbye."

……

"Goodbye, Xiao."

"Big brother, goodbye."

……

"Achuan, thank you so much today."

Xiao Xiao didn't get in the car, "I'll just take a taxi back by myself."

"You should go home too."

After saying that, he waved his hand and wanted to turn around and leave.

His home and Chi Xiuchuan's home are not in the same direction.

By the time I send Chi Xiuchuan home, it will probably be eleven o'clock.

……

"Master Xiao."

Chi Xiuchuan shouted hastily, "I'll take you back."

"I don't mind taking this little bit of time."

His face looked somewhat helpless.

……

Since Chi Xiuchuan said so, Xiao Xiao did not refuse.

He simply got in the car.

"Then please take me home."

"It should."

"Master Xiao, you are too polite."

Chi Xiuchuan was somewhat dissatisfied.

He and Master Xiao have known each other for quite some time.

Since Master Xiao was willing to ask him for help today, he thought that they should get along well with each other.

Since we are friends, why should we be so formal?
Xiao Xiao smiled.

It's not like he's unfamiliar with Chi Xiuchuan.

It's just a deeply ingrained habit.

He was born with the inability to be too close to others.

He has always been gentle yet polite.

I don’t know if he is too shy or just naturally cold?
"Master Xiao, we're here."

Chi Xiuchuan parked the car steadily at the entrance of the alley.

"it is good."

Xiao Xiao opened the car door and got out, "Achuan, thank you for taking me back."

"Be safe on the way back."

"Goodbye."

"Well, Master Xiao, goodbye."

Chi Xiuchuan waved to Xiao Xiao, loosened his feet, and the car drove out slowly.

"Xiaoxiao, are you back?"

Father Xiao looked at his son who walked into the yard.

"Dad, you haven't slept yet?"

Xiao Xiao was a little surprised.

"Sleep."

Father Xiao raised the cup in his hand and said, "Get up and pour some water."

"When I heard the door open, I came out to take a look."

Xiao Xiao walked past the white plum blossoms and couldn't help but stop to admire them.

The white plum blossoms in the night are always beautiful with a sense of transparency and illusion.

The cool and subtle plum fragrance that wafts into your nose makes you feel intoxicated and you forget what day it is.

"What a beautiful white plum."

Father Xiao walked to Xiao Xiao's side and stood still, feeling a little emotional, "So."

Even with Xiao Xiao's good hearing, he couldn't hear clearly what was said next.

Father Xiao just opened and closed his mouth a few times.

However, noticing her husband's slightly frowned brows, Xiao Xiao asked with a sense of realization: "Dad, what happened?"

Without waiting for Father Xiao to say anything, he continued, "Is it related to this white plum tree?"

Father Xiao swallowed the words that were about to come out.

Xiaoxiao is as sharp as ever.

A bitter smile appeared on Father Xiao's face.

Since the child has already noticed something, Father Xiao no longer intends to hide it.

Moreover, he had no intention of hiding it from Xiaoxiao from the beginning.

Xiaoxiao naturally has the right to know about family matters.

Just, "I originally wanted to tell you tomorrow since it's already so late."

Father Xiao withdrew his gaze from the white plum and looked at Xiaoxiao instead. "Someone wants to buy this white plum at a high price."

Father Xiao's words were concise, but his face showed some bitterness and helplessness, "That guy is very persistent."

"I spent the whole day in the teahouse today."

"Even though we rejected him again and again, he still refused to give up."

"He just ordered a pot of tea and sat in the teahouse. He didn't do anything rude."

"It's not easy for us to chase him away."

"After all, we are open for business, and everyone who comes is a guest."

"How can we ask guests to leave?"

"He didn't leave until the teahouse closed."

"He told us before he left that he would not give up."

Thinking of the serious expression on that person's face when he left during the day, Father Xiao felt a headache.

He had a feeling that if he wasn't dealt with, that guy would be a big trouble.

However, then, Father Xiao looked at Xiaoxiao with a thoughtful look, "Your mother, grandmother and I are all very troubled."

"I don't know how to completely stop that person from buying white plums?"

"But, your grandfather said-"

Father Xiao paused and said, "I'll leave this matter to you."

He felt very strange that none of the adults had any good ideas, let alone Xiaoxiao, a child?

But Grandpa Xiao's expression didn't seem like he was joking at all.

why?
The child’s mother asked directly at that time.

However, Grandpa Xiao just waved his hand and said nothing.

"Pretentious and mysterious."

These were the original words spoken by Grandma Xiao, with a hint of dissatisfaction.

Grandpa Xiao is not the kind of person who does things without a purpose.

Since he said to leave it to Xiaoxiao, then he must be sure that Xiaoxiao can solve the problem.

But where does Grandpa Xiao’s confidence come from?

Father Xiao really couldn't figure out the reason.

Not only him, but also the child's mother and Xiao's grandmother were also confused.

Xiao Xiao was stunned for a moment and then smiled faintly.

Grandpa might be aware of more than he thought.

"Well, Dad, just leave this matter to me."

"Don't worry about it."

"here you are?"

Father Xiao raised his eyebrows, "Are you sure?"

That guy is not easy to deal with.

No wonder.

After all, the white plum tree in their yard is so magical.

Anyone who sees it would want to claim it for themselves, right?

"of course."

Xiao Xiao raised the corner of his mouth and said jokingly: "Didn't Grandpa say to leave it to me?"

"Your grandfather is just talking."

Father Xiao racked his brains to come up with the second half of the sentence.

"I was serious."

Xiao Xiao calmed down and said, "Dad, don't worry, I will take care of it."

Seeing that Father Xiao still looked a little hesitant, Xiao Xiao smiled and changed the subject, "Who is that person?"

"How did he find the white plum blossoms in the yard?"

You should know that the road leading to the backyard from the teahouse is off-limits to guests and no entry for outsiders.

"Well, it's a coincidence."

Father Xiao suddenly forgot his previous doubts and smiled bitterly, "At that time, your grandparents were having lunch under the white plum tree."

"Your mother and I are busy in the teahouse kitchen."

"No one noticed a guest running into the backyard."

"The guest was in a hurry to go to the toilet."

"It just so happens that the bathroom in the teahouse is already full."

"He couldn't wait for the people in the toilet to come out, so he came out to find another toilet."

"As a result, he saw the white plum tree in our yard."

At this point, Father Xiao couldn't help but sigh, "The rest is what I just told you."

The guy was completely stunned by Bai Mei.

Moreover, the white plum blossoms that bloom in summer are even more amazing.

Not to mention the rich plum fragrance that fills the yard.
