When Luo Xi woke up the next morning, as soon as Luo Xi opened her eyes, she saw Claire lying on top of him, with her hands under her chin, blowing on his face.
"You woke up so early today." Luo Xi kissed Claire's forehead, making her giggle.
"I dreamed about my dad," Claire rolled on him coquettishly, "he took me to Disneyland and bought me such a big cotton candy."
The little girl stretched out her hand and gestured, and the circle she drew could fit her whole body, "Well, it's so big."
"Delicious." Luo Xi pinched her nose, "Okay, go wash your face and brush your teeth, I'll make you breakfast."
"Bravo!" Claire applauded with dignity, and insisted on lying on Luoxi's back to let him carry her out.
A bowl of stewed soup exudes a mouth-watering aroma. The rich soup is poured on the firm white rice noodles, and then spread with large slices of beef, sprinkled with green onions and crispy peanuts. It is spicy It can also be paired with spicy oil, some homemade rice vinegar in the workshop, and various side dishes pickled by the proprietress. Not only did the children feel their appetite increased, even all the cameras gave the rice noodles on the table a variety of flavors. kind of closeup.
"Is it delicious?" Lin Chengyou, who knows how to cook the least, didn't expect that the braised noodle made randomly yesterday could still be eaten, so he asked his son for credit.
Xizi didn't have time to answer him at all, he just lowered his head and used the spoon to scoop it up.
"It looks delicious." Lin Chengyou laughed triumphantly, "Maybe I can open a breakfast shop in the future."
#Ayou please don't make trouble#
#吉光祖你基留叫你去家开始店#
"Is it delicious?" Luo Xi asked Claire, who was eating deliciously. Claire, who likes peanuts, was begging her father to give her another two tablespoons of peanuts, "Don't eat so much, your throat will be dry."
"It's delicious~" Claire stretched out a spoon and quickly robbed the sliced beef in Luoxi's bowl while being coquettish, "Hehehe~"
After enjoying the delicious breakfast, the five families received today's new task - repairing the canal.
Xing'an Village, which works at sunrise and rests at sunset, follows the ancient labor custom. 2000 years ago, artificially dug canals were used to irrigate crops. Until now, the canals in Xing'an Village have formed a complete vein. crisscross the fields.And every year, after the busy harvest season, Xing'an Village repairs the canals, clears weeds, strengthens and dredges the canals for next year's use.
Rain boots, gloves and shovels were distributed to each father, and the children were also fully equipped. After picking up a small hoe, a group of people came to the field of the village head's house in a mighty manner.
This is a large terraced field, stretching from the hillside to the ground, and the canal also meanders down from the mountain, leading the stream into the field. Because the canal needs to be repaired, the village has temporarily blocked all the entrances of the canal a few days ago. Now The canal has dried up, with only wet mud at the bottom.
The fathers were scattered in five places, and all of them had gone down into the canal, working in full swing.The children were still together. Under the leadership of Da Bing, they pulled up weeds at a relatively wide canal fork, and they looked pretty good from a distance.
"Brother Dabing, help me pull it out." Xizai is the youngest child, and his strength is not as strong as others. Whenever he encounters deep-rooted weeds, he will be helpless. At this time, Dabing, who has a strong sense of responsibility and has been trained since childhood Became his summoned beast...
"You can use a hoe."
——The biggest difference between humans and animals is that they can use tools!
"Pa la pa la," Dabing demonstrated, he directly cut off the grass stem connecting the roots of the weeds, and then threw the grass aside. It can be seen that they have not learned the "spring wind blows and regenerates" method. poem.
"There are insects!" Weiwei pointed at a small caterpillar in shock, and Claire rushed up and followed the direction he pointed, and ran over it with her foot.
"Don't be afraid." Claire held Wei Wei's hand and touched his face comfortingly, "If you see worms again, you will be like me."
She stepped on the grass and signaled to Weiwei that all the bugs are paper tigers and they are not threatening.
But Weiwei still shook his head, "I dare not..." He said in a low voice with some shame.
Claire thought for a while, then patted herself boldly, "Then you stand with me, I dare."
——Let us shout the name of Ke, not afraid of insects, not afraid of the dark, not afraid of playing Ray Lyle!
——Let us ignore the genders of Qin, fear of insects, fear of the dark, fear of thunder, and Weiwei.

23.
On the second day, everyone set off on their way home. The children who had just developed friendship reluctantly said goodbye to each other. The fathers greeted each other politely and enthusiastically. It's also rare for Chen to have some small parting thoughts, after all, such days of complete relaxation are too few.
After getting into the car, Claire, who was just now dejected because she had to be separated from her friends, immediately became excited.
"Papa, Papa," she climbed onto Luo Xi's lap and sat, holding the little white duck returned by the village chief in her arms, her eyes sparkling as if she had thought of something great, "Did dad come back?"
"There's still a week left," Luo Xi replied casually, took out the mobile phone he just got and looked at it, the next second he immediately sat upright, with a puzzled expression on his face, ignored the piles of calling numbers, clicked Opened Weibo, "...he has come back."
"Ah!?" Claire, who was about to climb back in disappointment, immediately raised her head, "Dad is back? Where is he?"
Luo Xi dialed the phone, "Susan? Where's Ma Xiaoshun?"
——Even if he is passive and sabotages on the way to work, he keeps dialing the phone and is confiscated by the unbearable secretary. It is not surprising that this kind of thing happened to Ma Xiaoshun.
"You're back?"
Finally hearing the voice of the owner, the Golden Retriever could not wait to rush to Luoxi immediately, "Luoxi, I came back yesterday, you and Claire are not here, but I was captured by the big devil, come and save me, I don't want to work Shall we go to the amusement park? The little speeding car I saw last time was really fun. Speaking of which, I haven’t eaten roast duck for a long time..."
Ma Xiaoshun's habit of not typing punctuation marks whenever he was excited made both Luo Xi, who had an intuitive feeling, and the secretary, who was watching, feel annoyed.
"Stop." Luo Xi pulled back Ma Xiaoshun's topic where he didn't know where to go, with great experience, "You came back yesterday?"
"Yeah." The Magekin sniffled aggrievedly, "You were all gone when I got home."
Even if she didn't say that she wants to surprise you, Luo Xi knows it all too well.How easy is Ma Xiaoshun's mind to guess, a glance or a word can reveal it clearly.
He suddenly remembered that when they talked before, the other party hesitated to speak and the secret joy and pride that were about to overflow. It was no wonder that they were so wronged after planning for so long but failed.
"Come to Tokyo with me next week," Luo Xi laughed, and after hesitating for a long time whether to ask or not, he said it easily, "We haven't been to Disney over there yet."
"Ah! I'm going, I'm going!" Claire, who was still quiet, suddenly became excited, "Disney~yohe~we're going to Disney~yohe!"
The joy seemed to be contagious to everyone. The secretary, who is used to pouring cold water on others with work, kept silent for a rare time. She just secretly calculated the workload that the boss would have to rush to go to Disney next week—it can be predicted that the next week will be dark for Ma Xiaoshun look.
"And your movie premiere." Ma Xiaoshun smirked. Although he really wanted to attend Luoxi's movie premiere in a fair manner, he still had to consider the consequences of their attendance at the same time, even if they never concealed the relationship between them. Everyone is slowly accepting the relationship, but it doesn't mean they can be reckless and unscrupulous.
Because if you want to last long, you need to be more cautious.
"Well, Mr. Ma Xiaoshun, do I have this honor?"
"of course."
Then they couldn't help laughing, they had a perfect understanding and didn't need any words.
24.
When they saw Ma Xiaoshun squatting in front of their house, both Luo Xi and Claire were shocked by that look.
Ma Xiaoshun with messy hair, tasteless t-shirt and duck slippers doesn't look like a young and promising entrepreneur at all. Thinking of how he went to work just now, Luo Xi couldn't help but light the wax for Miss Secretary.
Claire touched the forehead of the golden retriever easily. If she stretched out her hand, Ma Xiaoshun would obediently stretch out her paw and shake hands with her.
"Honey!" When Ma Xiaoshun saw them, he warmly gave each of them a big hug, "Hey, I'm not skinny."
Luo Xi endured it for a while, and finally wrapped his arms around him, with a smile that she didn't even notice.
"Look, I've lost weight." Ma Xiaoshun had an expression of "Quickly ask", but before anyone asked him, he couldn't help breaking the news, "It's all because of you."
"Let me see, let me see," Claire leaned closer, "I can't tell."
"What can you see with your little eyes." Swinging his daughter away, Ma Xiaoshun took the luggage from Luo Xi's hand in a nonchalant way, "How about it, is it fun?"
Interrupting, the little prince Claire took a step back and hugged Ma Xiaoshun's thigh, "It's fun!"
Ma Xiaoshun held the luggage in one hand and dragged Claire on his lap, "Ohlala, are you getting fat again..."
"You're just getting fat! Hmph!" Claire tugged at his waistband, Luo Xi watched the two father and daughter bicker amusedly, and quietly stretched out her hand to hook Ma Xiaoshun's little finger, Ma Xiaoshun held back the next sentence.
"Claire, didn't you bring a gift?" Luo Xi's words made Claire happily rush to the luggage that Ma Xiaoshun put down and began to rummage through it. She who was about to bury herself in the box didn't see—her two The two fathers exchanged a longing kiss behind her invisible.
25.
"This is the gift for me?" After coaxing Claire to take a nap, Ma Xiaoshun finally saw what was tightly wrapped in the towel—a few bunches of wrinkled dogtail grass.
"That's right," Luo Xi held one of the grasses solemnly, "Claire picked it herself."
Ma Xiaoshun, who had no way of knowing what his daughter was thinking, gave up thinking about the meaning of dogtail grass, and he casually put the bunch of grass in a small vase on the table, "I heard that Ou Chen also went?"
"En." Luo Xi stared at the vase, still a little distracted.
Ma Xiaoshun stared at his side face, scrutinized him carefully, as if he wanted to see his heart.
Then he grabbed Luo Xi's left hand, and took off the watch that he personally put on Luo Xi before.
Under the watch, there was a deep scar that was covered up.
Luo Xi didn't stop him, he stared blankly at the scar on his wrist, at that time, he plucked up the courage to stand in front of Xia Mo for the last time, begging her not to abandon him, not to let him suffer this fate a second time , but Xia Mo refused, she looked at him with almost pity, and begged him to let him go, at that moment he knew that he had lost to Ou Chen, but even if it wasn't love between them, there were still those times when they depended on each other, but in Xia Mo In Mo Mo's eyes, that can all be given up.
He is like an old discarded photograph, if even the old days are no longer important, what is the use of him.Maybe others think he is a big star with a glamorous appearance, but he himself knows that since a long time ago, from the moment he was abandoned by his biological mother, he has never grown up again, no matter how strong he looks, but he In my heart, I still have the little boy who is not brave enough and not good enough.
He let go of those hands and left resolutely. If only death could make him give up Xia Mo, then he could choose to die.
This is his love, live or die.
Even now, he is still like this.
He could die for Xia Mo, or he could live for Ma Xiaoshun.
Luo Xi looked at Ma Xiaoshun lowered his head, and reverently touched his scar with his lips in a hand-kissing salute, expressing his distress and regret. "Do you know," Luo Xi said softly, "I regret it now, why did I hit myself so hard, and I'm scared when I think that I'm only a short distance away from meeting you."
"Me too," Ma Xiaoshun slowly clenched his hand, he could feel Luo Xi's pulse, as if this could dispel those fears, "Fortunately, Luo Xi, fortunately you survived."
