Xueba at the same table from the future

Chapter 264 Long Vacation
A blink of an eye.

It's been a few days since I attended Aunt Su's wedding.

This year's National Day holiday is very long.

Because the uncle has been saying that he misses the two little guys recently, now Chen Mu and Li Xinxi are running back and forth in the morning and evening, but they have increased their exercise a lot compared to when they stayed at home.

They often set off from Li Xinxi's house after breakfast, and took a leisurely walk around the town.Wait until noon to arrive at the uncle's house, and then go back and forth again, and prepare dinner in advance for the uncle who will be a guest at night.

This schedule sounds like a waste of time, but Li Xinxi is actually responsible for it.

The main reason is that Chen Mu has too many homes recently, so he also has the idea of ​​hanging out with Li Xinxi.

When sitting under the threshold to eat watermelon at noon today, the little squirrel mischievously lifted the belly of the person next to him, and then covered it with his cold hands, making Chen Mu's gnawing watermelon motionless.

"Hey, I said Gouzi, are you really going to finish eating a watermelon after you buy it? Don't you want to save some for the uncle who will come here later in the evening?"

The girl asked like this, and she smiled and put the other cold palm on Chen Mu's belly, so that he no longer had the slightest thought of eating watermelon.

The boy reluctantly threw the watermelon rind in his hand to the side, and pointed to the pair of neat watermelon rinds under his feet, even his voice of retort seemed a little lower.

"Please, my eldest lady, please take a closer look, I obviously only ate one piece, and you wiped out most of them."

"Don't eat watermelon if you can't talk—"

Before Chen Mu finished speaking, Li Xinxi decisively snatched the watermelon from Chen Mu's mouth, and devoured it alive.

He couldn't help being dumbfounded, Li Xinxi's temper was still so volatile, but just a casual sentence made her so irritable.

"Okay, now I didn't even eat a piece of watermelon, I only ate half of it—"

Chen Mu sighed with self-pity, but it made Li Xinxi turn around and stare at him again.

"Obviously summer is over, but you still think about eating watermelon all day long, can't you exercise hard?"

"Autumn, in the natural world, is the season for animals to accumulate fat and grow fat so that they will not freeze in winter."

"Hey——" Li Xinxi didn't turn her head, but moved her ears slightly: "You are not an animal, you are a human being."

"Dogs belong to the category of animals, and besides... even humans belong to advanced animals—"

After Chen Mu finished speaking, he spread his hands helplessly, and looked enviously at the little squirrel beside him with a dripping mouth.

"Silly Gouzi, you are forcing me to say that Gouzi is just a nickname, right? It's like the little squirrel you hang around my ears every day."

Li Xinxi angrily dropped the last piece of watermelon in her hand, and grabbed Chen Mu's right ear tightly, dragging Chen Mu down the threshold before giving up.

"The rubbish has been cleaned up, you can cook dinner tonight, otherwise you are not allowed to enter the house."

"What kind of evil have I suffered, being both a father and a mother—"

Chen Mu mumbled and picked up the trash, but he didn't continue to argue with Li Xinxi on this matter.

"Then do you want me to cook the dinner?" Li Xinxi suddenly stopped, turned around and glanced at Chen Mu with a half-smile.

"don't want--"

Chen Mu hastily cleaned up his hands a little faster, and nodded in an extremely positive response.

"That's it, let's clean up quickly, and come over to eat cake later. I made it in front of the video just now, and it is probably ready to be steamed soon."

Li Xinxi's figure disappeared very quickly, and when the sound sounded again, she had already moved to the kitchen.

"I knew that it would be no good to let Xiaoxi stay at home alone just now, and go out to buy watermelons by herself."

Chen Mu disposed of the garbage, and when he turned around, his face was already covered with a trace of bitterness.

After months of trying to cook without success, this little squirrel with nothing to do has started a new baking journey.

As a result, it was conceivable that those not-so-baked black paste objects entered Chen Mu's stomach again.

"Ah—" All he had was bitterness in his heart, and he lowered his head even when he was taking out the trash.

"Tsk tsk, what are you baking at home today? It's so delicious, and you still pour a bag of watermelon rinds here."

The moment Chen Mu raised his head unconsciously, he saw the old man who was wandering here slowly, and he was staring at the bag in Chen Mu's hand intently.

"Isn't this... Xixi, does she want to eat it? So I bought one specially."

"Master... why don't you call in advance when you come, we are starting to cook dinner every time at this point."

"I know you kid didn't eat it, and didn't leave a piece for your uncle."

The old man bowed and wandered all the way to the door with Chen Mu, and then glanced at Chen Mu's belly with disdain.

"Look at you, you must have been bullied by little girls on weekdays. After eating a piece of watermelon, even your stomach is flat."

A word out.

The uncle naturally took out a stack of blue star coins from his trouser pocket and handed it to Chen Mu, and then waved his hands twice.

"Hey, don't spend this month's pocket money sparingly, your uncle has money."

"Zero...pocket money?" Although Chen Mu couldn't help but widen his eyes, he put it in his trouser pocket quite honestly.

"Master, you have given a little too much in the past few months. I can't use it all up."

"Doesn't this make you treat other girls better? Is it because of you, kid?"

The bad old man glanced at Chen Mu with disdain, and then patted Chen Mu on the shoulder again.

"I don't know what the little girl likes about you? Could it be that you have more advantages than others?"

"Master... I don't want to discuss this issue with you. You are driving a Lamborghini on a dirt road."

"What Lamborghini, I only know bikinis." The old man picked his nose, and then pointed to the room in the direction where the aroma came from.

"Little girl, let's cook delicious food in the room. Don't try to lie to me about this. I have a good nose."

"Delicious...but not exactly delicious."

As soon as Chen Mu spoke halfway, the old man was impatient to enter the house, but he was the first to stop him outside the threshold.

"Master, it's better not to eat it first, most of the things Xixi cooks are of a level that can kill you if you eat them."

"Could it be that my stomach is not strong enough for you, a skinny kid?" The uncle anxiously sprayed his nose twice, but he couldn't get in.

When the two were in a stalemate, Li Xinxi's fiddling in the room became much quieter, as if it was the last moment.

Seeing that he couldn't enter the house anyway, the uncle brought the hands that were behind his back to his body angrily, and lifted Chen Mu's stomach.

speak up.

This was already the second person to use the same move to deal with him today, but Chen Mu didn't react once.

"Oh—" A shy voice from behind broke the long stalemate between the two at this time.

There was a petite girl standing at the door holding a plate of freshly baked biscuits. The scene in front of her almost made the plate sway in fright.

"Master...you two..."

"Tch, I didn't expect you, kid, to have exercised pretty well in the past few months."

The bad old man glanced sideways at Chen Mu's slightly abs, and then put on a smiling face and stabilized the plate in Li Xinxi's hand.

"Little girl, what delicious food did you cook today? Let your uncle try it too—"

"Just a moment... Wait a minute, sir, I'll talk about it after I put the plate on the table."

The two behind them seemed to be enjoying themselves, and Chen Mulue seemed to be very redundant at this time.

He lowered his head and glanced at his small belly, which was already showing lines, with a strange look in his eyes.

Chen Mu seemed to have discovered a very strange thing.

Obviously, he only started exercising roughly this summer, and only slightly increased the intensity of exercise during this holiday.

If this trend continues, according to his style of not caring much about these things, it is estimated that by the time Li Xinxi comes to remind him, the lines have already become prominent.

This kind of body change that was not easy to be noticed made Chen Mu start to look around for the subtle changes on his body.

But he just glanced at it casually, and quickly suppressed his peace of mind and sat down at the table opposite the uncle.

If his observations are correct, he has gone further and further down this inhuman path.

Of course, compared to the girl who was sitting quietly opposite at this time, it was still far, far behind.

"God, why are you in a daze? Why don't you eat it first, because it's a bit hot when it comes out of the oven, and the uncle will wait for a while."

Li Xinxi looked at Chen Mu with a smile, the corners of her mouth were grinning as much as the surprised look just now.

"I ate watermelon just now, my stomach is a little cold, and now I feel like going to the toilet."

Seeing this, Chen Mu hurriedly got up, but was stopped by Li Xinxi who stretched out her hand extremely quickly.

"Don't think about leaving. You obviously haven't eaten a few yuan, and your stomach is flat."

The little squirrel took the pig Chen Mu's wrist with one hand, and even took a quick biscuit from the side plate and fed it to Chen Mu's mouth when he was free. He was so scared that he quickly closed his eyes and tasted it carefully.

"Is it delicious, boy?" Seeing Chen Mu's abnormal appearance, the uncle who rarely ate Li Xinxi's food before couldn't help frowning.

The old man's understanding of his cooking level was still limited to the bowl of mung bean porridge, but he didn't realize that most of it was a memory left by his sister.

"Okay... eat, I'm ten...very satisfied." Chen Mu swallowed it with difficulty, and made a gesture of nine to the uncle beside him.

The bad old man stared at Chen Mu's back gestures for a few seconds, and then he slapped his head and realized: "I'm very satisfied with [-]% left, right? Then you can eat more, and I won't rob you as an old man."

"..."

Hear this.

Chen Mu looked at the old man next to him with a suspicious look, but stopped talking when he slapped another stack of blue star coins on the table.

"I heard that after this holiday, your school will hold a...sports meet or something, eat more to keep your body healthy, and I will go to see you when the time comes."

"I have no idea of ​​participating in this sports meeting. I am the publicity committee member of the class, and I will mostly be responsible for writing publicity drafts."

Chen Mu stuffed another biscuit into Li Xinxi's expectant eyes, but saw that the uncle wanted to retract his big rough hand that was originally placed on the table, so he had no choice but to lower his voice and change his words again.

"Well...even the publicity committee members can take time to participate in some projects."

"That's right, don't stay at home all day and draw or something—" The uncle patted Chen Mu on the shoulder, met Li Xinxi's eyes, and continued to change the topic far away.

"Little girl, the two of you have been walking around the town these days, have you found anything interesting? Sir, I haven't gone out for a long time since I was entangled by that little guy Doupi."

"These days..." The little squirrel seemed to enjoy feeding Chen Mu very much, just like how Chen Mu fed him back then.

"I wandered from the east side of the town to the west side with Gouzi, and almost searched every piece of turf in Yishui Town."

"We... um... discovered something." Chen Mu seemed to be choking on the biscuits a little bit.

"This Yishui Town, where everyone has lived for generations, seems to be a bit strange. I wonder if you have discovered it?"

"Strange place? It's strange enough for a cat to learn to eat on the table these days. What other strange things has your uncle not seen?"

"so……"

Chen Mu finally had a chance to stop torturing himself, and instead took the phone from Li Xinxi and opened the photo album.

"Look, sir, isn't the sunset glow in these two photos a bit...too similar?" Chen Muyan blinked.

"The strange thing about the whole town is that there are many similar or repeated things, not about the people, but about the surrounding environment."

"You two little guys...do you think this kind of thing is strange?" The uncle said with disdain, "I have lived here for decades, and I haven't seen it hundreds of times, but I have seen it a few times. Ten times."

"Really? Even this freshly baked biscuit has many differences." The little squirrel tried to eat a piece by itself, and quickly spit it out.

"Hey, silly dog, you know that the biscuits are made like this, so why did you keep eating and not talking?"

"Will I have a chance to speak? It's like it's useless to talk now."

Chen Mu took back the cell phone that the uncle had been staring at all this time, glanced at it himself, and then re-delivered the cell phone to Li Xinxi.

The boy and the girl leaned over their desks at the same time, silently sizing up the old man with a vicissitudes of face, and didn't speak for a while.

"You two... What are you suspecting?" The bad old man scratched his head, with an innocent look on his face.

"You may not believe it, and you may find it a little funny, but we doubt everything, not only the problem with Yishui Town, but even the authenticity of the whole world."

"Of course...the most suspicious thing is Chen Mu's background..."

Li Xinxi said and turned on the phone again, and put it on the table with a calm face.

"Chen Mu and I asked people in the whole town, but no one knew about the plum tree by the river, only about the flood that year."

"But he and I still didn't quite give up, thinking that what you said from your mouth should be true, so we searched along the embankment several times."

"Guess what? At the end of the levee, we found a tree root that had been soaked for more than ten years, but it hadn't rotted yet."
