When Xu Yan turned his gaze to Lin Dong again, Lin Dong pursed his lips and subconsciously hid towards Dabao.

"Of course," Xu Yan didn't care too much. He answered Dabao's question first, then smiled gently at Lin Dong, "Welcome, Lin Dong."

Lin Dong still wanted to hide, but facing Xu Yan's smiling face, he froze for a moment, then slowly smiled and said obediently, "Hello, Third Aunt."

His grandparents taught him since he was a child to be polite to others. Now that this unbelievably beautiful aunt is smiling at him, he can't keep a sullen face all the time.

"Hello to you too," Xu Yan was still smiling, and when the wind blew the snow over again, he called the three kids into the house.

As soon as Dabao and Xiaobao entered the house, Kaixin jumped out of the house. Xie Zhuo came back and wiped its feet carefully. Seeing it dive into the snow again without looking back, he hurried out to stop it.

But, it didn't stop.

The little fur ball was not big, but it was fast. It swooped over and landed at Xiaobao's feet.

"Happy!" Xiaobao picked up the puppy and happily showed it to Dabao and Lin Dong beside him.

Dabao also cried out happily and reached out to touch it gently on the head.

In comparison, Lin Dong was not so relaxed. In fact, he was a little tense.

His teeth were biting his lower lip tightly.

His dark eyes first glanced at Xie Zhuo, then moved away embarrassedly. But probably thinking of what his grandparents said, and that he was already standing in someone else's yard, he paused and still forced a smile.

He said to Xie Zhuo, "Hello, Third Uncle."

To be honest, Xie Zhuo was still a little surprised when he saw Lin Dong. It had snowed all day today and it got dark earlier than usual. Lin Dong came to his house now. Didn't he plan to go back at night?

He felt strange, but he didn't ask. When he heard Lin Dong's greeting, he smiled and said, "Hello, come in quickly. You must be freezing all the way."

"No," Lin Dong felt relieved when he saw the smile on Xie Zhuo's face and quickly shook his head.

"It's so cold," Dabao didn't answer like Lin Dong did. He kept saying that it was cold while throwing himself on Xie Zhuo, "Uncle, give me a hug."

Seeing him acting like a spoiled child, Xie Zhuo laughed and said, "No, rub the snow off your body onto me."

That being said, when Dabao was almost at his legs, Xie Zhuo suddenly bent down, picked up Dabao and carried him on his shoulders.

"Come on, come on, let's eat! Let's eat this chubby little piglet today!"

Dabao was not afraid while lying on Xie Zhuo's shoulder, and was giggling all the time.

"Uncle San is the little piggy!"

Lin Dong had never seen anyone play like this at home, and he was always worried that Dabao would fall. He was also afraid that Xie Zhuo would get angry if he heard what Dabao said.

but.

After entering the house, Xie Zhuo put Dabao down and kissed him on the face.

Xie Zhuo prepared a very sumptuous meal today, mainly because it was snowing and there was nothing else to do, so he spent some time preparing dinner.

Only four bowls of rice were served because there was one more person, Lin Dong. After washing his hands, he took another bowl and served one bowl to Lin Dong as well.

When the three children went to Dabao and Xiaobao's room to wash their hands, he asked Xu Yan about Lin Dong's situation.

"Dabao and Xiaobao said that they wanted Lin Dong to stay at home for one night," Xu Yan took another enamel pot and poured half a pot of red date tea into it. "They were afraid that I would not agree, so they said a lot of nice things."

Xie Zhuo nodded.

"We'll be done with dinner soon, why don't you go to school again?" Xu Yan thought for a moment and said, "From what I see from the three of them, this should be a last-minute decision. Don't let the parents wait until their children get home and then go to school to look for them."

"Yeah," Xie Zhuo responded.

During meals on weekdays, Dabao and Xiaobao would occasionally talk about what happened at school, and then Xu Yan and Xie Zhuo would laugh and ask questions.

Today the table is filled with voices urging Lin Dong to eat.

"Lin Dong, this braised pork is delicious, you should eat the braised pork!"

"My uncle's fried eggs are also delicious. Try them."

"Come on, Lin Dong, eat some vegetables, don't just eat rice."

"Lin Dong, have some of the jujube tea that my third aunt made specially for me. It has sugar in it and it tastes really good!"

"..."

After finishing the meal, Lin Dong stared at his bloated belly and was unable to come back to his senses for a long time.

It was the first time since he was a child that he had eaten such a delicious meal, and it was also the first time that he had eaten so much that he was full.

Everything before my eyes seems like a dream.

A sweet dream.

When Xie Zhuo went out to school, it was already dark. Xu Yan was a little worried about letting him go alone and wanted to accompany him.

"It's too cold," Xie Zhuo raised his hand and touched Xu Yan's face, "If the wind blows your face red again, I will be heartbroken."

Xu Yan slapped his hand and said, "Can you please behave yourself?"

Xie Zhuo grabbed her hand and kissed it, "It will only take me about ten or twenty minutes to get here. If everything goes well, I'll be back in an hour at most. Don't worry."

Xu Yan was worried.

But there were three children at home, and she couldn't just leave them at home and go out with Xie Zhuo.

Dabao, Xiaobao and Lin Dong were taken to take a bath before Xie Zhuo went out. Now they were lying side by side in the bed playing with a little duck toy.

After Lin Dong was washed, he looked much better. He had slightly long hair that fell over his eyes, big eyes, and a high nose bridge. Although he was young, one could tell at a glance that he would be a handsome guy when he grew up.

Xu Yan stood at the door and looked at the three kids for a long time. In the end, she came to the conclusion that the two kids in the family were born to get along with her, as they were both obsessed with looks.

When choosing friends, I always choose good-looking ones.

On the other side, when Xie Zhuo was walking towards the town with a flashlight, he happened to meet Liu Mancang who had just returned from Zhao Jisheng's house.

When Liu Mancang heard that he was going to town, he immediately expressed his desire to go with him.

Xie Zhuo glanced at his red face from the cold and frowned, "Why do you want to go everywhere?"

Liu Mancang laughed foolishly, then said seriously: "I don't want to go anywhere, I just want to follow you."

Xie Zhuo was so shocked by his words that he didn't know what to say for a long time. Finally, he took off the scarf from his neck and threw it at his face, "Wrap your ear, don't let it freeze off. Say it's because you followed me."

Although the two grown men walked very fast, it took them fifteen minutes to get to school because of the snow on the road.

Liu Mancang stood at the school gate, listening to Xie Zhuo's brief account of Lin Dong's situation. He opened his mouth and said, "Third brother, you two are really something. It's fine if you bring a dog home, but why are you bringing a person home now?"
