From the age of five, Xiao Qingrui never had his birthday.
Because to him, the day of his birthday was like a nightmare that he would never wake up from.
Mrs. Xiao naturally asked about his eight characters and thought about celebrating him, but when she heard that his birthday was his little father's death anniversary, she had no choice but to give up.
Therefore, in the past 15 years, no one has ever said a happy birthday to him on his birthday; in the past 15 years, everything he can remember about this day is only hatred.
until this moment.
The young man in front of him raised his small face that was white with flour, and his black eyes sparkled with joy and anticipation. The smile hanging from the corner of his mouth was brighter than the sun. his heart.
.Xiao Qingrui's heart was warmed into a pool of water, he was a little stunned, his mouth was full of smiles: "Aci, how do you know that today is my birthday?"
Mi Dao said of course: "I asked my mother."
Xiao Qingrui knew that it must have been her mother who only told Aci about his birthday, but didn't tell him about his life experience, that's why he was so happy to celebrate for himself.
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Mi Dao came around to the desk, put the account books on the desk aside, vacated a space, and then very diligently pushed the bowl of boiled and slightly sticky noodles to Xiao Qingrui.
I saw that the noodle soup was still steaming, with two vegetable leaves floating pitifully above it, and the noodles were also mixed with scattered egg droplets. I feel very ironed in my heart.
.Mi Dao stood aside, took the initiative to put the chopsticks into Xiao Qingrui's hands, and urged enthusiastically, "Brother, try it! See if it tastes good!"
Xiao Qingrui raised the corners of his mouth, picked up the chopsticks gently, and let them dry for a while before feeding them into his mouth.
The noodles at the entrance were bland and tasteless, and it was conservatively estimated that no salt was added, but the warmth from his stomach warmed his limbs.
Mi Dao asked expectantly, "How is it? Is it delicious?"
Although the rice and rice did not put salt.
Xiao Qingrui nodded and smiled, "It's delicious."
This may be the best food he has eaten in all these years.
Mi Dao was very happy, so he said, "Yeah! Then brother, eat more."
.Xiao Qingrui smiled, and under Mi Dao's gaze, he slowly finished the noodles and drank the soup, without letting go of a single ounce.
After eating the noodles, Xiao Qingrui drank the tea and rinsed his mouth, and then asked people to pack up. He smiled and asked Mi Dao, "You made this all by yourself?"
Mi Dao nodded as if asking for credit: "Yes! I broke the dishes, beat the eggs, and cooked the noodles, but..."
Saying that, Mi Dao's voice softened, sounding a little guilty: "Well... the dough is already made up by the cook, I just... pulled it a few times, and then I couldn't make a fire, so I had to ask someone to help me. …”
Xiao Qingrui listened to Mi Dao's soft voice, and looked at the tender white cheeks and the open and closed lips, and a kind of desire kept coming out of his heart.
.A desire that continues to heat up, like hot water that is about to boil, secretly churning and screaming in the bones.
He wanted to hug him.
Want to monopolize him, want to bully him, want to love him.
Want to see him cry, want to hear him say no.
I want to make a mess of him, to make his body, soul and soul full of his own taste...
Xiao Qingrui's eyes were deep, and he stared straight at Mi Dao. He stretched out his hand and stroked Mi Dao's cheek with his big palm, while his thumb rubbed the flour on that cheek gently and meticulously.
Mi Daoben was still talking, but Xiao Qingrui's actions made his face itch, he couldn't help but smile and asked, "Brother, what are you doing?"
Xiao Qingrui only looked at him, there seemed to be a twisted madness in his eyes, and he was about to say something like this to him—
Don't call him brother, he's not.
.Then, in this person's stunned and ignorant eyes, he kissed him fiercely...
Xiao Qingrui closed his eyes and calmed down his tumultuous mood. After wiping his fingers hard on Mi Dao's face, he smiled and said to him, "Look at you, your face is covered in flour."
Mi Dao blinked her eyes, her face flushed, and she quickly raised her hand to wipe it up. Seeing that her hands were all white, Mi Dao said aggrieved: "Wow, brother, you didn't tell me sooner, my face is all white. It's going to be lost."
Xiao Qingrui narrowed his eyes, just laughed in a low voice, and twisted his retracted fingers lightly, the person's body temperature still remained on his fingertips.
Not daring to let Mi Dao continue to stay in his room, Xiao Qingrui got up and urged him: "Okay, Aci, I have received your gift, go and rest, it's all over."
Mi Dao nodded and was sent to the door of the study by Xiao Qingrui.
.Against the light in the study, Mi Dao looked up at Xiao Qingrui's indiscernible face, and said with a smile, "Brother should rest early, don't stay up late, get up in the morning and check the account."
Xiao Qingrui smiled and said, "Okay, Aci also goes to bed earlier."
Mi Dao nodded, thought about it again, and reached out and hugged it.
Xiao Qingrui froze for a moment, her throat tightened, and her eyes darkened.
Xiao Qingrui really couldn't let Mi Dao hold him like this anymore, so he wanted to pull his hand away, but he didn't want Mi Dao to hold him tighter.
He just heard Mi Dao in his arms and whispered in a coquettish tone, "Happy birthday to my brother, Aci likes my brother the most, what about my brother?"
Xiao Qingrui's voice was half hoarse after hearing this. He patted Mi Dao's head and said in a low voice, "Of course I like Aci too."
Mi Dao refused to forgive: "Does my brother like Aci the most?"
.Xiao Qingrui's throat moved up and down, staring at the top of Mi Dao's head with a terrifying indifference that was overly suppressed.
His voice was hoarse and sexy: "Yes, I like Aci the most... Okay, let's go to bed now."
"Since my brother likes Aci the most," Mi Dao raised his head to look at him, blinking his eyes, trying to pretend to be innocent, "Then when the grades of the arithmetic class come out tomorrow, will you not punish me, brother?"
Xiao Qingrui: "..."
Xiao Qingrui's face suddenly sank, he pulled Mi Dao's hands apart with all his strength, and then slightly bent over and hugged Mi Dao horizontally.
Mi Dao was startled: "Wow!"
Without saying a word, Xiao Qingrui carried Mi Dao straight back to his own room, and then threw it on the bed.
Mi Dao looked at Xiao Qingrui's obscure expression: "Fuck!
.This unexpected unfolding is so exciting!
Mi Dao said to the system, "Ahhhh! Dad! What is he going to do! What is he going to do?!"
system:"……"
Mi Dao: "I knew I couldn't satisfy him, so I went to prepare the bow and ribbon!"
system:"……"
However, to Mi Dao's disappointment, Xiao Qingrui did nothing.
He stood by the bed and said to Mi Dao, "Xiao Yuci, sleep, if you can't sleep, get up and do the arithmetic."
Mi Dao: "..." Oh.
System: "You love math, and math makes you happy."
Mi Dao: "..." No, he is not happy.
So Mi Dao had to lie down obediently, pulled the quilt over, and closed his eyes: "Okay brother, I'm asleep, snoring..."
.Only then did Xiao Qingrui's face soften, but he was angry and funny. He bent down and rubbed Mi Dao's flour-covered face, and said, "You get up and wash before going to bed. I'll go back to the house first."
Mi Dao opened his eyes: "Then brother won't punish me for doing the question, okay?"
Xiao Qingrui smiled: "Okay."
Rice:
Yay!
Mi Dao smiled and said to Xiao Qingrui, "I love brother! Good night brother!"
Xiao Qingrui sighed and left Mi Dao's room.
As soon as he walked out the door, the smile on his face faded, and he said lightly to the little servant beside him: "Prepare water, I want to take a bath."
The servant should "yes".
Taking advantage of the bright moonlight in the sky, Xiao Qingrui raised his hand to look at the white powder on his fingertips, his long fingers clenched and clenched tightly, his eyes heavy. .Even the gusts of cold wind in the late autumn night could not quench the fire burning in his bones.
Today, he finally understands what this person is in his heart.
This is a treasure that belongs to him alone.
It is him now, and it will be his in the future.
No one wants to covet!
·
In the day after day of eating, sleeping, and studying, time passes quickly, and the New Year is just around the corner.
During this period of time, with Kou Cang's help, Gongsun Yu rarely encountered business problems again. Mi Dao was very pleased with the growth of his son, and also because his son's love for Kou Cang rose to 70. % more favorability and feel gratified.
As a result, Mi Dao and Gongsun Yu's daily toilet topic has changed from how to manage their family business to the Complete Works of Kou Cangba.
.Every day, Mi Dao smiled with her aunt on her face, watching Gongsun Yu show her affection with him shyly and arrogantly, and secretly looking forward to it, after the New Year, these two guys will go to register for marriage in the church, and then You can pass by yourself.
This kind of school life continued until the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, when the school began to have winter vacation, and did not go back to school until the Lantern Festival.
On the first day of the holiday, Mi Dao slept until noon, and woke up very happy: "Yeah! Dad! I'm on holiday!"
The system's indifferent face: "Oh."
Mi Dao read novels and movies in various ways, and when she was free, she said to the system very nervously: "Dad, look! I have a holiday, you don't, hahahahaha..."
System: "..." I really want to kill this girl.
But without waiting for rice, rice, salted fish for too long, Master Xiao and his wife returned from the capital.
.It was a sunny day, the wind was light and the clouds were light and the winter sun was warm, and the snow on the road was swept away early.
At noon, when the servant said that Mr. Xiao and Mrs. Xiao were coming home soon, Mi Dao was so frightened that she quickly got up from the bed, put down the novel, and dressed up and ran out to meet them.
When they went to the hall, Mi Dao saw Xiao Qingrui, who had gone to work early in the morning, also came back, sitting in the living room, drinking tea and reading the accounts.
Mi Dao said hello, "Morning, brother."
Xiao Qingrui glanced at him, raised his lips and smiled, "It's getting late, little slacker."
Mi Dao smiled and ran to Xiao Qingrui's side to serve him tea: "Brother, please don't tell mother that I'm going to sleep late again. If mother finds out, I'm afraid she won't kill me."
Xiao Qingrui said, "Why is my mother willing to beat you, so I will punish you for copying books."
.Mi Dao begged: "Don't, brother, I finally don't have to go to the school, and I still want to walk around and have a look."
After Xiao Qingrui heard what he said, he paused while drinking tea and asked, "Oh? Where do you want to go?"
Mi Dao said, "I've heard for a long time that there is a big temple in the mountains outside the city, and I've always wanted to go there and take a look."
Xiao Qingrui frowned and said in disapproval: "The snowy days are slippery, and the mountain roads are not safe, so let's wait until spring begins. I remember that my mother would go to the temple to worship Buddha every year during Qingming. If you want to go, you can wait. Then go with my mother."
"It won't take more than half a year..." Mi Dao muttered in a low voice, and then slowly fell silent in Xiao Qingrui's eyes.
After a pause, Mi Dao seemed to remember something, and said excitedly: "Is that snow viewing party in the city okay? . Brother has been busy arranging this recently, right? "
The Snow Appreciation Party is an event held by the people of Leyang City every winter by the Leyang Lake in the northern suburbs of the city. This event is jointly funded by the major business owners in Leyang City. Flowers, watching couplet paintings and calligraphy exhibitions, skiing, setting off firecrackers, shopping for New Year's goods, visiting snack shops, etc., it has a very Chinese New Year atmosphere.
And this snow viewing event is an important event in the game that triggers various strategy events. As long as the player chooses the right place according to the interests of the strategy target, the event will undoubtedly be triggered, and after the event ends successfully, the favorability will generally increase a lot.
Therefore, Mi Dao wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of the snow viewing party to give his son and boss Kou Cang a good assist, so that Gongsun Yu's favorability for Kou Cang quickly crossed the 80% mark, and the two Human relationships are elevated to love.
.As soon as he heard about this event, Xiao Qingrui naturally felt a lot more at ease. He looked at Mi Dao and was about to say "Okay, my brother will take you there", when he saw Mi Dao with a happy face and continued: "Brother Yu promised me Said, take me to see it."
Xiao Qingrui: "..."
Xiao Qingrui felt uncomfortable when he heard this, and he said with a heavy face, "No."
Mi Dao was stunned, his face wrinkled: "Why not?" He was still thinking of taking the opportunity to do something for Gongsun Yu and Kou Cang.
Xiao Qingrui thought for a while and said, "You two are brothers, it's not safe to go out like this."
It's better if it's not safe. If it's safe, how can he put his little son in crisis, and then let the boss, Kou Cang, be a hero to save the beauty!
Mi Dao said, "Brother, just send a few more people to follow me."
.Xiao Qingrui still said: "You are not allowed to go with Gongsun Yu."
Mi Dao was wronged: "Brother, do you want to keep me locked up and not let me go out!"
Xiao Qingrui's eyes sank slightly after hearing this.
He thought so.
I want to lock this person in a place where only I can go, and no one will see him.
Seeing that Xiao Qingrui was silent, Mi Dao cried to the system: "Woooooo, Dad, my brother doesn't love me anymore."
System: "Xiao Qingrui is about to spoil you, why doesn't he love you anymore?"
Mi Dao: "Look, he didn't agree to close my little black house. I tried so hard to imply him, but he..."
System: "beep-"
Rice: "..."
.The two were at a stalemate. Before Xiao Qingrui had figured out what to say, he heard a report from the servant in front: "Eldest Young Master, Second Young Master, Master and Madam are back!"
Mi Dao angrily hummed at him: "My brother bullied me, I'll let my parents decide for me." Then she ran out first.
Xiao Qingrui: "..."
As soon as Mr. Xiao and Mrs. Xiao got off the carriage, they saw their sweethearts running out to greet them, and their faces immediately blossomed with smiles.
Mrs. Xiao took Mi Dao to take a closer look. Seeing that he looked very good, she was relieved and asked him: "Dad and mother are not at home, did you listen to your brother?"
Mi Dao was very obedient and said, "Don't worry, mother, I can listen to my brother, go to bed early, get up early, study hard, and stay healthy."
.When Xiao Qingrui came out, he heard this sentence, glanced at Mi Dao with a half-smile, and then was glared back by Mi Dao.
Xiao Qingrui met with Mr. Xiao and his wife, and the family walked into the house together.
Master Xiao asked Xiao Qingrui, "Ari, is the account okay recently?"
Xiao Qingrui replied: "The consolidated accounts have been put in Dad's study, everything is the same as before, it's the two transactions mentioned in the letter last time, I haven't made up my mind yet, I want to wait for Dad to read it before making a decision. "
Mr. Xiao sat on the upper seat with a smile on his face, took the tea brought by the servant, and said with a smile, "Hahaha, just let it go, you have done a good job in the past few months, in the future. You don't need to ask us any more about the business of Baode Building, just let your parents take a break."
Xiao Qingrui sat down with a smile, responded slightly, and raised a cup to drink tea.
.After listening to Mrs. Xiao, she smiled and said, "That's right, we don't need to worry about Ari's affairs. But you, Aci, how are you doing in the school? Can arithmetic improve?"
Xiao Qingrui raised the corners of his lips.
Rice: "..."
Mom, if you don't ask this, we'll still be good mother and son.
Mi Dao replied obediently: "Thanks to my brother, I have made great progress."
Mrs. Xiao: "Oh? Really?"
Mi Dao nodded as if pecking at rice: "Take it seriously, it's more real than real money, if you don't believe me, ask my brother."
Xiao Qingrui smiled in approval and said, "Indeed, there has been a lot of progress."
After listening to Mrs. Xiao, she nodded, thought for a moment and then said tolerantly: "Well, there is also your elder brother in this family, so you don't need to take care of business affairs. . . However, my mother is afraid that you will marry into your husband's family in the future, and there will be no way for you to help your husband manage the family business. "
Hearing what Mrs. Xiao said, Xiao Qingrui's eyes turned pale, and her heart turned gloomy, but after all, it didn't show on the surface, and she only took a light sip of tea.
After hearing this, Master Xiao quickly expressed his position: "Madam, what are you talking about, even if Madam can't help me with some business, you are the biggest in this family."
Mi Dao laughed when he heard it.
Mrs. Xiao's face became hot, and she shyly spat at Master Xiao: "In front of the child, what nonsense is the master talking about... I only talk about Aci, who knows what kind of person he will marry in the future, that person's temperament Good or bad, there is a concubine at home..."
.When Master Xiao heard that Ji was not a concubine, he stood up angrily: "Whose stinky boy has a concubine and dares to ask to marry our Aci, let's see if I don't break his legs!"
Mrs. Xiao hurriedly stepped forward and stroked Master Xiao's back to persuade him: "Okay, okay, master, don't be angry, it hurts your body, sit down and drink some tea."
Master Xiao obediently sat down to drink tea.
Mrs. Xiao looked at Mi Dao, and said with emotion, "You look at Aci and say that she has grown so big, and she will be sixteen after the new year. It's really time to talk about relatives, if you don't do it as soon as possible. I plan, if the passion period comes early... what should I do?"
Mrs. Xiao said, she couldn't help but glance at Xiao Qingrui, clearly thinking of his little father.
Back then, when his little father was out to play, the passion period came, and he was taken over by the scoundrel who came from nowhere.
.The ugliness of the family cannot be made public. Naturally, his family will not talk about this matter, but he doesn't want it to be settled, and there is no rumor that there is any marriage. His family died at the hands of the bandits, leaving his little father alone. Still have a big belly.
His little father was also a stubborn person. He left Leyang City and refused to mention Xiao Qingrui's birth as a father. In the eyes of the world, Xiao Qingrui was born and raised to the age of five. If it weren't for the letter he sent to the master before his death, I'm afraid that the couple would still think that he died at the hands of the bandit.
Mrs. Xiao sighed, thinking that if her family's Aci also encountered such a terrible thing... Thinking about her, she felt so uncomfortable!
Xiao Qingrui felt Mrs. Xiao's gaze, but she acted as if she had not seen or heard, and remained calm, but her eyes were already dark.
.Master Xiao sighed and agreed: "Indeed, Aci is so old, it's time to find someone else."
Mrs. Xiao seemed to remember something, her eyes lit up, and she asked Mi Dao with a smile, "Aci, did you see your favorite son in the school?"
Master Xiao echoed: "Yes, the school is a good place, does Aci see someone you like? Daddy can help you find someone to match."
Xiao Qingrui frowned suddenly, and subconsciously raised his eyes and looked over, not daring to let go of any change in Mi Dao's expression.
Then I saw that Mi Dao, who was suddenly named and asked a question, looked sluggish: "..."
Mi Dao: "Everything! What should I do if my parents urged me to get married? Wait online, I'm in a hurry!"
System: "Ding! Your network connection is abnormal, please try again later."
Rice: "..."
.Mi Dao had to blushed and said, "Nothing, mother, Aci is still young."
Mrs. Xiao said: "Not too small, not too small—hey, didn't you say in your last letter that you and the second young master of the Gongsun family are getting along pretty well? Mother sees that he is a little short, but he is in business. —"
At this time, Xiao Qingrui interrupted: "Mother, Gongsun Yu is also a brother."
Mrs. Xiao was stunned for a moment and said disappointedly, "Oh..."
Mi Dao hurriedly inserted a needle: "Mother, brother Yu and I are good brothers, and brother Yu also said that he would take me to a snow-watching festival some days! Aci really wants to go, mother, are you okay?"
Xiao Qingrui froze for a moment. Miscalculated.
Mrs. Xiao said: "Okay, of course it's good. You haven't been at home for the New Year for a long time, you should go and see, and there are many young people at the snow viewing party. It would be good if you can find a husband to come back."
.Mi Dao was happy, jumped up and hugged Mrs. Xiao: "Wow! Aci likes mother-in-law the most!" Then she stuck out her tongue at Xiao Qingrui.
Xiao Qingrui: "..."
Mrs. Xiao smiled and patted Mi Dao's head, and then said: "By the way, don't patronize Aci, and what about Ari? You see that you are not too young, it's twenty-one for the new year, how come you haven't Anyone who has settled down, both girls and brothers will do, hurry up, my mother is still waiting to hold her grandson!"
Xiao Qingrui frowned and murmured, "My son hasn't—"
Mrs. Xiao interrupted: "Is there anything, you are just stupid and busy with business every day, and you don't care about the inheritance of the lineage. Oh, didn't you say that the second young master of the Gongsun family is a brother? What are you doing? Do you know that he is a brother? Could it be that he is interested in someone else?"
Xiao Qingrui hurriedly said: "Mother, I don't have it, it's A Ci who has a good relationship with him, I just found out about it now. . . Right, Aci? "As he said that, he gave Mi Dao a wink.
Oh huh, the ultimate big BOSS eats the deflated scene.
Mi Dao happily said: "How do I know, um, but brother Yu seems to have mentioned it to me a few times, saying that brother is handsome and powerful, and he is really the best candidate to be a husband-in-law."
After listening to Mrs. Xiao, she became more enthusiastic: "Oh, isn't this just right? Although the Gongsun family's business has not been smooth recently, there is always something in the family. My mother also heard about the second young master's housekeeping recently. Good hand, the news is very well-informed, if you marry him, Ari, you will have an extra wise helper!"
Xiao Qingrui was helpless: "Mother..."
.Mrs. Xiao continued: "Oh, although his eldest brother is not very good, but this is better. We Baodelou cooperate with ready-to-wear shops, there are no cloth dealers, and we don't know that those people use materials. How much money went to the pit. If you marry the second young master of the Gongsun family, you can simply swallow his cloth and save money for us..."
Mrs. Xiao said and clapped her hands: "Very good! Mother agrees to this marriage!"
Xiao Qingrui: "..."
Mi Dao: ... Mom is invincible!
Xiao Qingrui didn't know what to say, so he had to ask Master Xiao for help.
Master Xiao, who was watching from the sidelines, finally put down his teacup, coughed lightly, stood up and said, "That...Ari, I'm going to the capital this time, and I've got some news, come over with me, I'll tell you to listen to me. listen."
.Xiao Qingrui quickly responded "yes" and ran away with Master Xiao.
——Today's battle situation: Mrs. Xiao won a big victory.
·
After getting Mrs. Xiao's approval, Mi Dao can finally go to assist his Xiaoshou son and Kou Cang in an open and honest manner.
One day after making an appointment with Gongsun's imperial letter, Mi Dao wrapped himself into a zongzi and went out.
He rode the carriage all the way to the northern suburbs of the city. As soon as Mi Dao got off the car, he saw Gongsun Yu in a snow-white mink coat waiting in the store, and Kou Cang with a gentle gaze beside him.
Mi Dao looked at this pair of officials, and there was only one thought in his heart:
engage! Hurry up!
The author has something to say: [Question] What is Xiao Qingrui's treasure?
A. Rice and rice B. Flour Xiao Qingrui: "..."
.Hang Bai: "don't hit me! I really did it on purpose [top pot lid.jpg]"
