Fallen grid shop

Chapter 8
Luo Luo hugged her teacup and read a book at the table, while Lu Lu curled up in her arms and fell asleep soundly.

At this time, the wind chime at the door rang, and the monk walked in through the door in a snowstorm, dusting off his cassock.

With a sound of "meow", Lulu suddenly rushed towards the monk, and was firmly held in his arms by the monk. He smiled and gently stroked the black cat with its teeth and claws, and sat down.

"It's rare to see you here." Luoluo greeted the monk with a smile.

"The poor monk passed by here today and came here to ask for some tea. I heard that the premium black tea in Winterfell is sweet and fragrant."

"It's a coincidence, I'll bring it to you." Luoluo got up and went to the back kitchen, took out the teacup and teapot, and made a cup for the monk.

The monk held the black cat and looked at the wall full of grids with a smile, without saying a word.Luoluo sat down, looked down at the book with her head down.

The small fireplace in the front hall was humming, making people sleepy with warmth.Seeing the moonlight getting thicker and thicker, it seems that today, there are no guests coming again.

After drinking a few cups of tea, the monk got up and motioned to leave.Luoluo said goodbye to him briefly, and the monk disappeared into the vast whiteness outside, leaving only Lulu scratching the wall alone, Luoluo laughed.

"Dead monk, he only stays for a short time every time, and never comes." Lulu changed back to human form, lying on the table and sighing.

Luoluo looked at her and smiled without saying a word.

"Luoluo, tell me, will the girl live well in her new family?" Lulu asked her with her head tilted.

"I don't think it's bad. After all, that family finally had a child, so they should cherish her very much." Luoluo dragged her chin to think for a moment, then flipped through the book and said.

"That's good." Lulu continued to lie on the table and doze off boredly.

After a long time, she got up and went to the back kitchen to bring out a plate of flower cakes, savoring them carefully, and asked Luoluo: "You think, is the story between Qingti and her just so endless?"

"There is no way around this." Luoluo closed the book, took a bite of a piece of cake, and said, "After all, the story between them runs through the whole story of the girl's mother and those painful memories. But things will happen in the future." What will become of it, who knows?"

"That's right." Lulu stuffed the cake in her mouth and chewed hard, and then drank a cup of black tea in a big gulp. She felt much warmer.

In the dark grid No. 60, the pink and fluffy petals of Albizia juliensis are shining pink, and this small shop is extraordinarily warm and bright on this snowy night.

It was June of another year, in the garden on the outskirts of Winterfell, the girl folded her hands together in front of the acacia tree in front of her, and earnestly made a wish.Qingti sat on a branch and looked at the slowly rising moon, when she suddenly heard a human voice under the tree.

"Wishing tree, I hope that my adoptive parents will always be so healthy. I hope that the boy in my dream will be happy forever."

How can there be such a stupid human being, Qingti thought silently, what kind of person would make a wish for the boy she met in her dream.

He subconsciously glanced at the person under the tree, a young girl who was around about, turned and left.

The familiar figure appeared in a trance, as if he had met him in a dream.It's just that the person in the dream seems to be thinner.

Qing Ti became interested, he jumped off the tree and followed the girl out of the garden, around the streets and back to her house.

It was a small but cozy room.

The owner is gentle and capable, and keeps the house in good order.There are also family photos on the table.The parents smiled softly, and the girl standing behind them smiled sweeter than scissorhands.

"Hehuan is back, it's time to eat." The hostess' voice came from the kitchen, "Go and wash your hands, where are you going at night?"

The girl stuck out her tongue and replied, "I went for a walk outside, and the acacia flowers in the garden are blooming."

The male host who walked into the dining room from the living room said with a smile: "Really, let's have a picnic together some other day."

"Okay~" A long and coquettish voice came from the bathroom, the girl sat down with a smile, and the family had a simple and warm dinner.

No one could see Qing Ti, he stood not far away, watching this scene, strange emotions surged up.

It seems that I can't tell what it feels like, I only know that I am a little happy and a little sad inside.

The person in front of him is just an ordinary human being, he just met him for the first time, why does the girl named Hehuan seem to have known him for a long time, so long that he looks like an old friend who has been lost for many years.

"Is the recent exam difficult? Do you have confidence?" The host gave the girl a bowl of soup.

The girl stuck out her tongue: "Don't mention how difficult it is, Dad, math is so difficult."

"It's okay, eat more, you are too thin, you have the strength to study when you are full." The male host comforted with a smile.

The hostess put a piece of braised pork into the girl's bowl and said softly with a smile: "Call your friends to come home to study together tomorrow, and mom will bake cakes for you."

"Okay, thank you mom, you are the best." The girl smiled and threw herself into the arms of the hostess.

Qingti silently watched what happened in the restaurant, and couldn't help laughing, but tears also dripped down her cheeks and onto the ground.

He didn't know why he was crying.Turning his head, he planned to quietly go back to where he was supposed to go.

Standing at the door of that house, Qing Ti took a last look at the lights in the room.

He thought, perhaps the simplest happiness of human beings is like this.Simple meals, simple conversations, the simplest yet giving each other the most love.

There was a bit of wind in the garden that night, and the albizia julibrissin worked hard to bloom under the moonlight.

Qingti sat on the branch and watched the full moon gradually rise, thinking that it would be great if someone could sit beside him to enjoy the moonlit night and the stars.

But people don't see him.

Forget it, trees are born to be lonely, he comforted himself like this.

If another tree grows with him, they have to compete with him for food and water. They don't even know if they get along, or how long it will take for the other tree to transform into a tree spirit.

Thinking about it this way, he felt much happier.

When will it rain?
When will a flock of birds be brought in to sing to him?
He should stop playing tricks on others and be clever like before. If the priest finds out again, he might be cut off.

Humans have always been afraid of aliens.

Qingti sat on the branch and swayed her legs. Although he will face hundreds of lonely days alone in the future, he doesn't seem to be so lonely anymore.

One day, he will wait for the person in his dream.He thought so firmly.

Albizia juliensis blooms lonely and warmly on a moonlit night. The pink petals are fluffy, as if warming every lonely soul that walks alone in this world and strives to survive.

　The first story is over, but Luoluo's lattice shop is still open.I hope that every little cutie firmly believes that there is always someone in the world who secretly loves you in an unknown place, don't give up trying to live, refill.
