Quickly wear: I am looking for my owner in the human world

Chapter 20 Come, I’ll take you home (19)

As the New Year approaches, people are freed from the [-]-to-[-] busyness and fall into another form of busyness.

The older generation is busy cleaning up their houses and buying new year's goods, while young people working outside are also returning home one after another, visiting each other from time to time.

This quiet little county town is rarely noisy and full of laughter and life.Even the old-fashioned brick house at the foot of the mountain was different from the bustle in previous years.

Chu Chi sent away another wave of guests with a smile, and rubbed the corners of his stiff mouth, still feeling as if he was dreaming.

When I returned to the bedroom, I saw a dog sleeping soundly at the end of the bed. I couldn't help but lie down next to it, got closer, stretched out two fingers and gently pulled the fur on the dog's ears.

In exchange for two impatient grunts and a paw slapped on the face, the dog didn't even open its eyes.

Chu Chi raised his eyebrows slightly and pressed forward.

Xuan Wei returned to the divine realm in her dream and was drinking wine while lying on the hammock in front of Jiuxian's small bamboo house.Dundun's disobedient iron-eating beast came to play with her hair again. She moved her fingers and it flew out.

Unexpectedly, Dundun fell straight towards her from the sky at the next moment. For some reason, she wanted to move away but couldn't move, and she couldn't cast her spell. She could only watch helplessly as she was about to become the first person in history to be eaten. Crushed to death by an iron beast...

Depend on!

Xuan Wei opened his eyes.

In front of him was Chu Chi's enlarged face.

Xuanwei gritted his teeth and looked at the sky speechlessly. Compared with this childish human being, Dundun was so cute and well-behaved!

Xuan Wei thought silently in his heart: This is a lucky child, you can't beat it, you can't bite it, you can't bite it...

Chu Chi ignored the dog's angry glare and moved the soft fur into a mess without fear of death.

"You're a heartless person. You've provoked so many people. Grandpa and I haven't had much time to spare these days, but you're sleeping here."

Xuan Wei rolled his eyes.

If you feel that there are too many people, why don’t you feel that there are too many courtesy? !

As she expected, no matter how careful she was, over time, the nearby residents who had been helped by her still noticed her.

The advantage of a small place is that news spreads quickly, but the disadvantage is that news cannot be hidden.

What's more, this kind of thing with a bit of fantasy element can arouse people's gossip mentality. At this time of the year, chatting after tea and dinner can be spread by ten people.

In the words of some elderly people, she has even been somewhat deified.When Chu Chi teased her with this, she was still a little flustered by having her vest taken off.

Fortunately, more young people can only sigh: Did they say that they would not be allowed to become spirits after the founding of the People's Republic of China? !

Once her deeds spread, the Chu family, as her "owners", would inevitably become known to more people.

Out of gratitude to Xuan Wei and wanting to help the grandfather and grandson, people came to the door one after another with gifts to express their gratitude.

After a few days, the food and drink at home can fill a small room.

"Ah Cai..." Chu Chi gently scratched the soft fur on the dog's neck and opened his thin lips, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he only slowly uttered two words.

"Thank you."

He hadn't seen his grandfather smile like this for a long time.

Most elderly people are afraid of being left alone.For as long as he can remember, his family has never been so lively, even during the New Year and holidays.

"Ah Cai! Come! Come to grandpa, there is something delicious!"

Grandpa Chu's friendly voice came from outside the room.

"Grandpa, what about me?" Chu Chi pretended to be reluctant and shouted.

"You? You brat, you want to compete with A Cai for food? This is all earned by A Cai. If you want to eat, you can earn it yourself!"

Chu Chi was speechless.

His family status is really getting lower and lower.

Xuan Wei returned to his lazy look, glanced at Chu Chi casually, jumped out of bed and walked out slowly.

Chu Chi: ...Is he being despised?

Listening to Grandpa Chu outside giving Ah Cai a series of praises like he was coaxing a child, Chu Chi shook his head and chuckled.

He turned over and lay on his back on the bed, with his hands folded behind his head, his eyes sparkling, and a soft smile on his lips.

The first year when Ah Cai came to their home seemed to have a bit of a New Year flavor.

******

On New Year's Eve, thousands of houses are lit with lights.

Dinner was cooked by Chu Chi as usual. Although it was not as good as other people's reunion dinners, the four dishes and one soup were a combination of meat and vegetables, and they were all delicious and delicious.

In Xuan Wei's opinion, good cooking skills are one of Chu Chi's few advantages.

Xuan Wei learns everything very quickly, but he lacks any skills in cooking. So far, he can only make porridge.Her master, Qing Yuan, was a good cook, but he rarely cooked.Fortunately, gods don’t actually need to eat.

What Xuan Wei didn't know was that when Chu Chi first started cooking, he was not even as good as her.

It’s just that since he was sensible, he has provided three meals a day for the family. Practice makes perfect.Otherwise, children from poor families would already be the masters of their families.

After Chu Chi added rations to Xuan Wei's brand new stainless steel bowl, he sat down to eat.

There is a bottle of wine on the table, which Grandpa Chu picked out from those gifts.

He poured himself a glass and poured half a glass for Chu Chi.

"Come on, Ah Chi, it's rare to have a drink. You can drink some with grandpa today."

Chu Chi was a little surprised. He knew that his grandfather liked to drink, but he rarely drank, and he was not allowed to drink.In junior high school, he tried beer out of curiosity and was scolded, let alone liquor.

As if he could tell what he was thinking, Grandpa Chu took a sip and said, "I didn't let you drink it before because you were still young. What kind of wine do children drink?"

"After today, you are now eighteen and an adult. You know what you should do and what you should not do."

"You have always been sensible, and you don't have to worry about grandpa."

Chu Chi smiled: "Without grandpa worrying about me, I wouldn't be where I am today."

After finishing speaking, he picked up the cup, took a sip and then put it down.He still wasn't used to drinking.

In comparison, Grandpa Chu is much more heroic.The hearty posture seemed to be drinking some fine wine.

"Good wine!"

Grandpa Chu smacked his lips, looking slightly regretful.

"It would be better if it were stronger..."

Chu Chi put a chopstick of food into his bowl.

"Grandpa, don't just drink. It's not good for your stomach. Eat some food."

Grandpa Chu's hand holding the cup paused, and his eyes looking at Chu Chi became a little misty, as if he was looking at someone through him.It took him a moment to come to his senses and smile with relief.

"It's okay, don't worry, grandpa is drinking well."

"When grandpa was young, the wine he drank was much stronger than this. It was fragrant and spicy. It's so refreshing to drink in the winter."

"What a pity...she doesn't allow me to drink...your grandma always talks about me."

The smile on the old man's face became more real, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes looked more profound under the lamp.

"She caught me drinking secretly once. I thought she was going to talk about me again...but guess what?"

"She took the wine in my hand and drank it for herself..."

"She also said that since I can't quit, she will accompany me. Even if it hurts her body, it's just two people together."

"She looks soft, but she is actually very stubborn."

"If you don't want to force me, just force yourself..."
