Raiders, loyal dog

Back at Baiweilou, the teacher who taught was just about to leave.Qiao Zhibai respectfully sent the master out of the Baiwei Tower, and then returned to the room again.

"What did you learn today?" Qiao Zhibai handed over the candied haws, then neatly removed the gauze wrapped around Ling Zixiu's left eye, and asked with a smile, "How do you feel?"

As soon as he returned to the light from the darkness, Ling Zixiu blinked his eyes uncomfortably. After a while, he felt much more comfortable, and then he said seriously: "It's nothing, the master is just checking the homework he learned a few days ago. Well, by the way, I also taught me some new words."

"Oh?" Qiao Zhibai sat next to Ling Zixiu and asked with interest, "What word? Write it down for me?"

After hearing Qiao Zhibai's words, Ling Zixiu blushed a little, and his eyes were a little guilty: "But, but, I just learned to write, and my handwriting is not good at all. After a few days, I will practice more proficiently. I'll write it to my brother again."

Seeing Ling Zixiu's small appearance, Qiao Zhibai couldn't bear to tease him any more, so he rubbed his head and joked with a smile: "Then you should hurry up, I can't wait to read Xiaoxiu's writing. "

Seeing that Qiao Zhibai didn't insist, Ling Zixiu breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly nodded vigorously: "Don't worry, brother, I will practice hard these few days."

It was still early, Qiao Zhibai chatted with Ling Zixiu for a while, and then called Xiao Er to bring the food.

Qiao Zhibai didn't have any appetite because he had things on his mind, so he just took a few mouthfuls, then stopped his chopsticks, and looked intently at Ling Zixiu who was eating.Although this child is thin and small, but if he really wants to open up to eat, his appetite is not small at all.

Perhaps Qiao Zhibai's words stimulated Ling Zixiu a few days ago. In order to grow taller in the future, he was a bit picky eater, but now he eats a rich and balanced diet.

Stayed by Qiao Zhibai's side, and was carefully taken care of by Qiao Zhibai for more than half a month. Although Ling Zixiu looked like a small one, his complexion had obviously improved a lot, and his skinny face was finally gone. I ordered some meat.Well, overall, it feels better to pinch.Qiao Zhibai was very satisfied.

"Brother, don't you want to eat?" Ling Zixiu, who was eating with his head down, watched Qiao Zhibai put down his chopsticks, quickly raised his eyes, and frowned slightly to look at him, "Brother hasn't eaten much these two days. "

Qiao Zhibai waved his hands with a smile, and said, "It's nothing, I'm like this at this time of year. Others suffer from summer, but I suffer from autumn. You can eat more, I don't care."

Ling Zixiu looked at Qiao Zhibai seriously and said, "But it's not good for your health. How about we ask Xiaoer to make some hot and sour soup for brother to appetize? We can't just eat this little bit all the time. It's almost winter and the weather is cold. Very much, my brother will not be able to bear it."

Qiao Zhibai looked at Ling Zixiu's pretendingly serious little face, and thought it was too cute, so he stretched out his hand and pinched his face, and didn't say anything more, just responded with a smile: "Okay, I'll listen to Xiaoxiu .” As he spoke, he picked up the chopsticks and began to eat slowly.

Although Qiao Zhibai still didn't eat much, Ling Zixiu was very happy, and leaned over to quickly spread the vegetables for Qiao Zhibai, and when Qiao Zhibai's bowl was almost filled, he started eating again Come.

After eating, the two of them lay in bed and took a short rest in the morning, and it was almost midnight when they woke up.Qiao Zhibai got up, pushed open the window and looked out, the sun was still terribly bright, which made people feel a little better.

Qiao Zhibai got up, and Ling Zixiu woke up after rubbing his eyes.Qiao Zhibai walked over, rubbed his head, and said, "Xiaoxiu, the weather is so nice this afternoon, let's go out for a stroll."

As long as he can stay with Qiao Zhibai, Ling Zixiu is willing to go anywhere.Lifting off the quilt with one hand, Ling Zixiu jumped out of the bed, quickly put on his clothes, walked quickly to Qiao Zhibai's side, and nodded quickly: "Okay."

Qiao Zhibai helped Ling Zi trim the wrinkles on his clothes, and then carefully put on his colored contact lenses.Looking at the pink and lovely Ling Zixiu in front of him, Qiao Zhibai sighed slightly: "There is no potion, this thing can be used, but it is only valid for a few times. It is a pity after all."

Ling Zixiu shook his head quickly: "It's very rare to have such an experience of walking outside with my brother, and I can't ask for more. If you are too greedy, God will punish you."

Knowing that Ling Zixiu said this on purpose to comfort himself, Qiao Zhibai felt distressed and relieved, and stretched out his hand to hold Ling Zixiu's little hand. For a long time, he could only smile and shake his head: "You..."

Compared with the previous two times when he simply brought Ling Zixiu to the street to watch the excitement, this time Qiao Zhibai's purpose was very clear.Pulling Ling Zixiu, he walked to a small alley, and then handed over the silver ticket to the original owner, took the land deed, and bought the small house that he had been looking at two days ago. down.

After getting the title deed, Qiao Zhibai was in a good mood.Shaking Ling Zixiu's little hand, Qiao Zhibai smiled and said, "Let's go, go and see our new house."

Ling Zixiu nodded in a daze, and was directly pulled in by Qiao Zhibai.

The house Qiao Zhibai chose was not very big, and it was not located in a downtown area, so the land price was very cheap.The house is very clean, there is a small yard, some melons and fruits are planted in the yard, it looks very gratifying.

"Come back and buy some things with me later, let's decorate this place well." After turning around, Qiao Zhibai felt very satisfied, and turned his head to Ling Zixiu and said so.

"Buying things? Isn't it all right for brother to make up his mind?" Ling Zixiu tilted his head.

"This is your room, of course you need to meet your needs." Qiao Zhibai half bent down and pinched Ling Zixiu's nose.

"Mine?" Ling Zixiu thought for a while, but couldn't figure it out, "Shouldn't it belong to me and my brother?"

Qiao Zhibai's eyes flickered for a moment, then he smiled again, and said, "Ah, you should say that. But what I said is right, since it's a house for two people, we naturally need to go shopping together."

Ling Zixiu's eyes lit up immediately after hearing Qiao Zhibai's words: "Okay, okay, brother, let's go now!"

"Well, good." Qiao Zhibai replied, looking at Ling Zixiu's happy expression, he couldn't say what he wanted to say.

Wait, and wait.In a few days, after he goes through the investigation of the three households to make sure there is no problem, then tell him.Qiao Zhibai said it silently over and over again in his heart.

Ling Zixiu was bouncing ahead, while Qiao Zhibai, who was slightly behind, could only see the back of his head.So, he didn't know that Ling Zixiu, who was walking in front of Qiao Zhibai with a happy face, lowered his eyes slightly in a place where Qiao Zhibai couldn't see, and put his other free hand on the wide sleeve. Li clenched his fists hard, and his untrimmed nails were almost pinching blood on the palm of his hand.

After running all over the street for an afternoon, barely messing with the decorations in the small house, Qiao Zhibai was so tired that he was out of breath, but he was very satisfied with the fruits of his labor.

"Looks like it's almost done if I get some more stuff tomorrow." Qiao Zhibai smiled and said to Ling Zixiu on the other end, but strangely, Ling Zixiu didn't respond.

Hmm, it seems that this afternoon, Xiaoxiu didn't talk very much?A vague thought flashed through Qiao Zhibai's mind, but before he could discern it carefully, that subtle feeling quickly disappeared.Shaking his head, Qiao Zhibai decided not to think too deeply, turned around and waved in Ling Zixiu's direction: "Xiaoxiu, let's go back to the inn."

Hearing Qiao Zhibai's voice, Ling Zixiu moved a bit, looked at Qiao Zhibai, Ling Zixiu raised a smile: "Oh, yes."

Pulling Ling Zixiu back to Baiweilou, it was a little late to wash up after dinner.This Ling Zixiu was laying the quilt obediently, while Qiao Zhibai on the other end suddenly said casually, "By the way, Xiaoxiu, I'm too careless. I'm afraid that such a precious thing as the land deed will be released in a few days." Lost. However, I am very careful when I watch you do things. Besides, what is mine is yours. How about I put the title deed in your place, and you help my brother to keep it first. What do you think? "

Ling Zixiu's hand holding the quilt was suddenly tightly clenched, and his dark eyelashes trembled slightly, as if he was trying to suppress something: "I don't feel at ease if you let me keep such a precious thing. Brother, please keep it." .”

Qiao Zhibai walked over, hugged Ling Zixiu from behind, put his chin on the top of his head, and said with a smile: "No matter how precious it is, it is not as precious as Xiaoxiu. Don't shirk it, I believe Xiaoxiu can keep things well. Um , then I will put it in the package specially for your clothes."

After sealing the land deed, it seemed that he finally felt relieved.Qiao Zhibai took off his coat and was about to go to bed, when he suddenly faced Ling Zixiu and frowned strangely: "Xiaoxiu, your eyes..."

"Huh? What's the matter?" Ling Zixiu touched his left eye subconsciously in a daze.

"Well, it's nothing, I'm probably too tired so I'm hallucinating." Qiao Zhibai smiled, then fixed his eyes to look at Ling Zixiu's right eye, it was still normal black.The pair of blood-red eyes I saw just now should be just the effect of the projection under the candlelight.Qiao Zhibai analyzed himself.

Blowing out the candle, he hugged Ling Zixiu and went to bed neatly, stretched out his hand to pull up the quilt to cover the two of them, Qiao Zhibai muttered sleepily: "Good night, Xiaoxiu."

"Well, good night, brother." Ling Zixiu opened his eyes and responded softly.
