Rebirth Poppy

Chapter 52 The Day of Death

Although the driver who picks up Xiatong is not a confidant of Pei and Du, he is definitely a trustworthy person.Of course, he knew everything about Xia Tong clearly.

Because Xia Tong has been too well-behaved these past few months, and as a result of Pei and Du's intentional relaxation of the temptation secretly, the driver has already put down his other monitoring job besides his own job.

But when he suddenly saw Yang Jian just now, even though Xia Tong paid special attention, his expression was still a little more impatient.After fixing the car behind him that had hit the rear due to insufficient braking, the driver waited outside for a few minutes, feeling anxious, and then got out of the car and went into the supermarket to find someone.

After searching like a headless chicken for a long time, he finally saw Xia Tong with a shopping basket carefully picking vegetables at the fruit and vegetable stand, and he felt relieved, only to find that his back was dripping with cold sweat.

"Mr. Xia." He walked to Xia Tong's side and said respectfully.Hearing this, Xia Tong turned his head and looked over. After being surprised, the corner of his mouth showed a hint of understanding, and he handed him the shopping basket with some things in his hand, "Since you are here, please carry it for me."

Walking out of the supermarket one after the other, Xia Tong didn't explain why he came to the supermarket to the driver who was carrying the shopping bag behind him, and sat directly in the back compartment without the driver asking.

Both of them knew that the explanation also depends on the object.

……

Because of the delay on the road, I arrived at the villa nearly half an hour later than usual.

Originally, Xia Tong had already thought up a speech when he was on the road, but when he entered the door, he found that there were no shoes of the two men by the door, and only Aunt Wu greeted him.

Didn't come back?That's good, he can take the opportunity to make the words more perfect.

The driver who was a step behind him brought the shopping bags over, and after they were sent to the kitchen, Xia Tong went to the second floor to take a bath. —He doesn't like being hugged.Disgusting and leaves a smell on him.

It was almost six o'clock after I got out of the bath. I was wearing a set of house clothes, drying my hair and was about to go downstairs.

This is also the benefit of him being 'totally well-behaved'. Not only will no one be watching him all the time, but also no one can enter and exit this room without a key without his nod.

——Of course, this owner does not include Pei Muli and Du Yan.

Seeing her embarrassed look, Xia Tong asked, "Sister-in-law Wu, what do you need from me?"

"Mr. Xia..." Mrs. Wu hesitated, and quickly said, "The vegetables you bought..."

"Why, I can't go shopping?" Xia Tong raised his eyebrows.

"No, no." Aunt Wu hurriedly waved her hands, "Does Mr. Xia want to cook for the young master himself now?"

Ask knowingly.It's not that they don't know that today is an odd number, so Du Yan usually doesn't come here.

Seeing the look on his face, Mrs. Wu almost smiled in relief.The wrinkles at the corners of the eyes are getting worse.But immediately frowned again, "I don't know if the young master will come back today, but if the young master knows that Mr. Xia deliberately...Mr. Xia, please wait, I will make a call."

After speaking, without waiting for Xia Tong to respond, he turned around and left.

Be nervous.Xia Tong snorted indifferently, and walked slowly towards the kitchen.On the way, I heard Mrs. Wu talking happily.

"Master, it's me. I know I shouldn't be calling, but... no, Mr. Xia is fine, he went to the supermarket to buy a lot of vegetables after school, and now he is preparing to cook for you... Yes, he is already in the kitchen Yes. The young master probably didn’t eat, right? Come back soon, Mr. Xia has lived here for so long, and it’s the first time he’s cooking, so you should cheer for him anyway... No, no, I never told him! Young master, Mr. Xia has been with you for so long, as long as you are willing, you can know many things."

He had never heard that Pei Muli could talk on the phone for such a long time except for business. He usually just hung up the phone quickly after listening to a quick report. Now, depending on the situation, he asked a few more questions for the first time.

Xia Tong glanced at Aunt Wu who came over with a happy face after hanging up the phone, thinking back to what Aunt Wu said about 'you can know if you want to'.

"Mr. Xia, what do you want to cook? I'll help you." Aunt Wu smiled from ear to ear, and said in a tone of complete excitement, and let the chef who was occupying the place next to her leave.

"I can only cook very simple home-cooked dishes." Xia Tong said, put on an apron and peeled a piece of lettuce, frowning slightly worried, "I haven't made it for a long time, it must be half as good as the chef's cooking Eat. It's just today, and I don't know if he will come back."

"Mr. Xia is so caring, the young master will definitely come back." Aunt Wu was washing the vegetable leaves neatly, with a trace of sigh and sadness on her face, "Since the master and wife... hey, the young master will be alone on this day every year. However, now that you are with me, I feel at ease."

Mrs. Madam?

Eyelashes fluttered, Xia Tong positioned the target, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

No wonder he vaguely felt that today's date was familiar, but he couldn't find any events related to it.Pei Muli once had a car accident, and the only survivor of that car accident was his young self, but he knew that his parents died at the scene of the car accident because of their injuries.It's just that it's been too long, and I've never seen Pei Muli or anyone around talk about it, so Xia Tong just glanced at that date.

did not expect……

His luck is really not ordinary good.Buying vegetables and cooking for Pei Muli himself was just to wipe his ass for impulsive and reckless following after seeing Yang Jian, but he didn't expect that it just happened to be such an important time.

Then his behavior of rushing to the supermarket to buy vegetables, and even cooking with his own hands for the first time is even more seamless.Maybe there will be a little surprise.

Seeing Aunt Wu who couldn't hide her joy beside her, she knew what she said that Pei Muli would definitely come back.

"Oh no!" Auntie Wu suddenly remembered something, without even saying hello to Xia Tong, suddenly rushed out of the kitchen at a speed unmatched by her age, went to the living room to pick up the phone, "Mr. ...Oh, you are his secretary, right? He is still in the meeting? Very good, tell him after his meeting that Mr. Xia will personally cook for my young master tonight, and let Mr. Du not worry about my young master. "

The latter half of the sentence was spoken calmly, even with a hint of showing off.

With a smile in his eyes, Xia Tong stood at the kitchen door and looked at her.He knew why she made this call.If it has become a custom for Pei Muli to be alone on the anniversary of his parents' death, then even if today is an odd number, Du Yan, who didn't know that Pei Muli would come back, might indeed come here. Aunt Wu is isolating everything for his young master Trouble.

"Mr. Xia, let's continue." Aunt Wu said after returning, "Young master doesn't eat spicy food, and his favorite dish is Coke ribs. Can Mr. Xia make Coke ribs?"

Coke ribs?How do you usually see him eating?

But Mrs. Wu took care of Pei Muli for so long, she said it must be Coke ribs.It's just hard to believe that Pei Muli, who is as indifferent as Pei Muli, has such a favorite dish...

Xia Tong shook his head, Wu Aunt frowned slightly, and then let go, "It's okay, this dish is easy to make, I'll teach you how to make it, but the speed must be fast, otherwise the young master will not be ready if the meal is not ready." Alright." After finishing speaking, he realized the strangeness on Xia Tong's face, and explained with a sigh, "The last thing Madam made for the young master before she passed away was Coke spareribs..."

Oh, it turned out to be a commemoration.

There was a trace of sadness and hidden distress on Xia Tong's face, which flashed by, but it was enough for Mrs. Wu to see.Then he raised a smile and seriously asked Mrs. Wu how to make Coke ribs.

Pei Muli, it's fine if you don't come back tonight.But if you really come...

Ha ha.
