Genshin Impact: Opening a store to draw cards is exciting

Chapter 55: First contact with little walnut

"The dumplings are ready-made...are they already wrapped?"

Chen Xiao walked into the kitchen. Although he had never lit the stove himself, he had at least seen it.

Have you never eaten pork or seen a pig running?

Now he really wants to order a song "Yu Jie" for himself as a background music, and then shout "Pace, light the fire".

It’s a pity that there is no BGM here, but the BGM in my mind seems to be the same.

Chen Xiao took the pot and boiled water, and he did all of this almost in one go, but in order to prevent the time vortex from continuing to drag him into the next period of time.

He had to speed up and make the dumplings before leaving.

Chen Xiao was so skillful that he didn't even need a lighter. He just snapped his fingers and the match was lit.

Chen Xiao quickly put the dumplings into the pot and stirred them a few times with a spatula while waiting for the dumplings to float up from the pot.

Just after Chen Xiao finished cooking the dumplings and took them out of the pot, he was about to turn around to see if Hu Tao, who was sleeping in the living room, had woken up.

But it happened to meet a pair of big eyes in the darkness.

For a moment, both of them fell into a daze, and Little Walnut tilted his head, his hair was messy, obviously unkempt.

"Little brother, who are you and why are you in my house?"

Chen Xiao raised his eyebrows, wondering why he didn't notice when the little guy woke up.

Could it be that I was too focused on making dumplings and didn't pay much attention to her affairs?

At this moment, he clearly heard the growling sound coming from Xiao Hutao's stomach. It seemed that the baby was very hungry, as if it was attracted by the aroma of the dumplings.

Chen Xiao said after thinking for a while.

"Your grandpa won't be home tonight, so he asked me to make dumplings for you because he was afraid you would be hungry."

"Really? I don't believe it."

Little Walnut pouted and remained very alert, not looking relaxed at all.

Chen Xiao could only point to the nearby windows and door panels, all of which were locked, and said.

"If your grandfather hadn't given me the key, how would I have opened the door and come in? The door and windows are still in good condition."

Little Walnut was doubtful and walked to the window, but the door was unlocked.

After Chen Xiao used space solidification to fix Hu Tao, he flashed outside and opened the door with the key deconstructed by projection.

This is a patch for his own lie.

After checking around, Little Walnut walked back, still feeling a little worried.

"Then are you able to pick locks? Recently I heard from my grandfather that there are many people who break into houses and pick locks. How can you prove that you are not good at it?"

Chen Xiao could only helplessly take out the key he projected and hand it to Xiao Hutao.

Little Walnut also approached cautiously, got the key and quickly moved away from Chen Xiao.

I compared it with the key hanging around my neck and found that it was indeed the key to my house.

It seemed that only at this moment did she finally let go of her worries and gave Chen Xiao a big smile.

"Thank you, brother. Then..."

Before he could finish his words, his stomach started to growl again. Little Walnut couldn't help but hold his stomach and looked at the plate of dumplings in his hand with some longing.

Chen Xiao was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry. After taking the tableware, he took Xiao Hutao to the dining table outside.

"Eat it, although my cooking skills may not be as good as your grandfather's."

"Thank you, you are such a good brother!"

Little Walnut happily picked up the chopsticks, poured the vinegar into the dumpling plate, stirred it, and began to eat it in big mouthfuls.

As the cold winter approaches, the heat from the plate of dumplings quickly disappears.

But Walnut was still eating happily, his eyes narrowed into slits.

He ate all the dumplings in no time at all, and then patted his belly with satisfaction.

Make a popping sound.

"I'm full, I'm full, it's delicious. By the way, brother, did grandpa say when he will be back?"

"No, he said he had something else to do..."

Chen Xiao just sat beside the table looking at her, when he suddenly felt a pulling force coming from behind him.

That was the power of the time vortex. It seemed that he was about to leave this time and move on to the next period of time.

But there seemed to be some time left, so he walked up and touched Little Walnut's head, and despite her resistance, he ruffled her head a little more.

"Okay, time to go to bed. Wait until tomorrow. Maybe grandpa will come back."

"Really? What about you, brother? Where are you going?"

"I...of course I left. Do you still want me to sleep with you?"

Little Walnut stood up with her hands on her hips. Although she was not as tall as Chen Xiao's chest, she still showed a proud look.

"No, I'm used to sleeping alone. Don't underestimate me, I will sleep alone in the future too."

"Okay, okay, then stay at home and don't run around."

Having said that, Kurumi will definitely wander around after this.

His advice would not have much effect, and Walnut looked angry.

He stepped heavily on the ground step by step, walked to the side of the coffin bed unhappily, and then went in.

Chen Xiao walked to the door somewhat helplessly, but through the reflection of the mirror beside the door, he saw Xiao Hutao with a pair of big eyes, lying on the edge of the bed, looking at his back.

But Chen Xiao felt that the pulling force behind him was getting stronger and stronger, as if he was about to break away at any time. In order not to scare Little Hutao, he could only wave his hands and smile at Little Hutao behind him.

He pushed open the door of the Hall of Rebirth and walked out.

As soon as he walked out, the first thing he saw was an old man emitting light blue light floating in front of him.

The old man's figure was vague and it seemed like he would disappear at any moment.

Chen Xiao, who had already received the answer, was not surprised. He just looked at Xiao Hutao again after seeing the old man's appearance.

This time, she probably really has to say goodbye to her grandfather forever.

The old man smiled kindly and nodded, as if to say thank you, but he still looked through the door at the little walnut inside with some reluctance.

In the room, little Walnut was lying quietly near the bed. Although she was a little scared, she would not say it out loud.

The entire Hall of Rebirth is filled with arrangements to exorcise evil spirits and prevent souls from entering.

So the old man couldn't get in and could only take a peek inside through the door.

"Do you need me to take you in?"

As Chen Xiao spoke, the old man shook his head, looked at Chen Xiao again, and his figure slowly dissipated, but he pointed to the vicinity of Wuwangpo.

It seems that something can be found over there.

Then, his figure quickly disappeared, as if he had left here.

Just as Chen Xiao was about to leave, he heard little Hutao sobbing softly in the room for some reason. She probably didn't understand why she was sad.
