Onmyoji Shikigami Don't Cry

Chapter 7 The Story of Xiaoshui (2)

On a new day, Chen Beibei was still woken up by his own alarm clock.

The tears on Xiao Shui's face had been wiped away during the night, so Chen Beibei didn't know what happened last night.

"Big brother, turn off the alarm clock..." Xiao Shui whispered softly.

Chen Beibei turned off the alarm clock, and also lost the habit of not getting up until the alarm clock rang three times.

Some habits are easy to break, especially with someone who cares.

"You two continue to sleep, I'll buy you breakfast."

"Big brother, don't you want to sleep a little longer today?"

"Well, I'm already asleep."

Getting up at seven o'clock, it's been a long time, but Chen Beibei still got up.

Because today he is going to a place, to meet someone.

Chen Beibei went downstairs to buy breakfast for Kappa and Sanweihu, and then went straight to where he was going.

Spring Snow Noodle House!

Chen Beibei wanted to know if Xiaoshui and Aunt Chunxue were related.

Potholes on the road, wet marks...

This is always the case in front of the small shop, giving people a not-so-clean feeling.

But the people in Qinghe Town didn't care much about these things, and neither did Chen Beibei.

The appearance of Chen Beibei obviously took Haruyuki a little by surprise.

"Chen Beibei, come to eat noodles?"

Chun Xue looked at Chen Beibei with an unnatural expression, as if he was a little nervous, and kept fingering the hem of his apron.

"Just...wanted to ask something..."

After Chen Beibei finished speaking, Haruyuki became even more nervous, his eyes dodged, but he never fell on Chen Beibei.

"However, I'm also here for noodles. Auntie Haruyuki will help me cook a bowl of green vegetable noodles."

Chen Beibei thought that he hadn't eaten breakfast, so he said.

If you ask while eating noodles, it will not appear so deliberate.

If Aunt Haruyuki has nothing to do with Xiaoshui, it won't be too embarrassing...

"Well, I'm going to cook noodles for you..."

Haruyuki turned around hastily, speaking in a hurry.

Aunt Haruyuki also forgot to say, "Wait a minute."

Normally, she would say that.

The town of Qinghe is not big, and something can spread quickly, especially among their women.

Aunt Haruyuki should already know that she brought Xiao Shui with her, right?
Chen Beibei looked at Haruyuki's back. It was a fat woman.

In the countryside, such a woman feels more capable.

Today's noodles are a bit slow to cook, usually it can be cooked in two to three minutes.

Haruyuki spent nearly 10 minutes.

The steaming hot noodles dispelled the coldness of winter, and Chen Beibei was not in a hurry to eat.

"Aunt Haruyuki, can I ask you something?"

Chen Beibei looked at Haruyuki and asked her.

Haruyuki knew that Qinghe town had already spread the word, and those things could not be kept secret after all.

"Ask." The answer was straightforward.

"Ten years ago, did you have a daughter?" Chen Beibei also went straight to the point.

Haruyuki was wearing ordinary clothes, blue jeans and a black down jacket.

At this time, she was leaning against the door frame of the shop, looking at the clouds in the sky.

"Well, there used to be a daughter..."

Speaking some words is like opening a floodgate, and emotions are the water that accumulates over time.

Chun Xue turned his back to Chen Beibei, so Chen Beibei couldn't see Chun Xue's red eyes.

When people in Qinghe town were discussing that the girl next to Chen Beibei had exactly the same appearance as Chun Xue's daughter ten years ago.

Haruyuki's mood was very complicated. At first, she didn't believe it.

But after she hid behind the wall and peeked at Xiao Shui, she believed it.

Ten years is not enough for a woman to forget her daughter's appearance.

The moment Haruyuki saw Xiao Shui, he almost thought it was his daughter.

But that's simply not possible.

Because her daughter had died ten years ago, in the river of Qinghe town.

"Is the girl next to me really exactly like your daughter?"

Chen Beibei's words caused Haruyuki to withdraw his thoughts temporarily.

Haruyuki didn't speak, but just nodded.

Xiao Shui said by herself that she drowned in the river ten years ago.

At this time, Chen Beibei was sure that Xiao Shui was Chun Xue's daughter.

But how did Xiao Shui die? Does it have anything to do with Aunt Haruyuki?
Chen Beibei didn't know yet.

Xiao Shui didn't want to mention the past, obviously he was hurt.

Chen Beibei didn't want her to be hurt again, so he couldn't ask Xiaoshui.

"Where is your daughter?"

Chen Beibei still wanted to make sure whether Xiaoshui and Aunt Chunxue's daughter were alone.

"I drowned in the river in Qinghe Township, everyone in Qinghe Township knows about it."

Once again, there is no need to doubt.

Xiao Shui's cute appearance appeared in Chen Beibei's mind, making him more determined to find out about this matter.

"Why did you drown?"

Although it was cruel to ask such a question, Chen Beibei still asked.

Compared to a girl living alone in the eerie cold underwater for ten years.

As her mother, Aunt Haruyuki only answered a few questions, which should be acceptable.

"I was playing by the water and fell..." Haruyuki replied.

The reason for death was arbitrary, but irrefutable.

"Haruyuki, cook me a bowl of noodles..." A voice sounded, and a guest came.

Haruyuki wiped his tears with the back of his hand, sniffed, turned and walked into the shop.

Chen Beibei didn't see her cry, and neither did the new guests.

The noodles were skillfully put into the pot, and the water vapor rose, making it impossible for Chen Beibei to see her face clearly.

"Add vegetables or shredded pork?" Haruyuki's voice was the same as usual.

No sadness, but a little joy.

When facing guests, one should not keep a straight face, Chen Beibei understood.

Chen Beibei took out three yuan and put it on the table.

"Aunt Haruyuki, I'm leaving first."

Chen Beibei left Chunxue Noodle Shop and walked towards his company.

He has to go to work, after all, he only has more than 2000 yuan left now.

If you don't go to work, you will soon be hungry.

When Chen Beibei passed by the house where Ghost Shihei and Ghost Shibai lived, he saw that the door of the old man's house had been opened, and there were many people talking inside.

"How do you take care of Dad? You don't know after dying for so many days."

"That's right, that's right, if others find out, they might say something bad about our sons and daughters-in-law behind our backs."

"Didn't it happen that my wife was traveling outside in those few days, who would have known that he would have died?"

It appears that the old man's sons have returned home.

In the past two days, Chen Beibei has also heard some things about the old man one after another.

The old man gave birth to three sons, so he lived in the homes of the three sons in turn.

Anyway, no one has much time to spend with him.

The world is helpless, Chen Beibei can't control it, and he can't control it, after all, it's not his family's business.
