my landlord is koi

Chapter 40 Chapter Family

Not long after New Year's Day, the footsteps of the New Year ushered in, and the small town put on festive red clothes, decorated with lanterns and festoons, and beamed with joy.

Mo Xiaoxiao was packing her luggage in the room when she heard someone knocking on the door and shouting to the outside: "Qiao Qiao, help me open the door."

Qiao Yuening, who was sitting on the sofa, reluctantly got up and opened the door, and saw Xiao Tinghui standing outside the door wearing a flirty bag with a bright smile, and closed the door without hesitation to keep people out.

Before he could say hello, Xiao Tinghui's smile froze on his face, and he begged outside the door: "Qiao Qiao, I was wrong, can you give me another chance?"

Qiao Yuening remained unmoved, turned on the music on the mobile phone and played songs, interfering with Xiao Tinghui's voice so that Mo Xiaoxiao would not hear it.She leaned against the wall of the entrance, crossed her arms, and listened leisurely to Xiao Tinghui's fancy confession.

The matter started from the last time I went to the scenic area to appreciate the snow. Without Qiao Yuening's knowledge, Xiao Tinghui asked Mo Xiaoxiao to take her home for the New Year.Mo Xiaoxiao was very surprised at the time, and asked Qiao Yuening if she would not spend the New Year with her family?Xiao Tinghui, who killed a thousand knives, opened his mouth and began to make up nonsense, saying that Qiao Yuening had a very bad relationship with his family, and that he often spent the New Year alone, cooking a bowl of noodles for himself and playing games until dawn.

Basically, it was as miserable as Qiao Yuening's words could be. The key was that Mo Xiaoxiao actually believed it.Mo Xiaoxiao firmly believed in this kind of bluffing words, and even had no words to describe Qiao Yuening's kindness in the following time.

Qiao Yuening wanted to beat Xiao Tinghui up in her heart, she really didn't go home for the New Year, because she was used to laziness, and she couldn't go home without being restrained.And every year on New Year's Eve, a group of their friends eat, drink and have fun together, where is she cooking a bowl of noodles to deal with it?

Xiao Tinghui's ability to tell lies when he sees people arouses Mo Xiaoxiao's desire to protect, and he agrees to take Qiao Yuening home for the New Year.It didn't matter to Qiao Yuening, she just happened to go and see Mo Xiaoxiao's family situation, and try to figure out her parents' attitude if possible.

But thinking of Xiao Tinghui's mouth...

Xiao Tinghui's dry mouth when he confessed his mistake outside did not make Qiao Yuening move a bit, it was Mo Xiaoxiao who packed his luggage and put him in.Today, he dressed himself up as if he was going on a blind date, with a coat, leather shoes and jeans, short fluffy and slightly curly hair, and flat glasses with a golden round frame on his eyes.With a good figure and a good temperament, just stop anywhere and you will see a high-end custom-made human-shaped stand, which is eye-catching.

He winked at Mo Xiaoxiao, and before he had time to praise himself, Mo Xiaoxiao slapped his narcissism on the ground to pieces.

"You'll be frozen like a dog when you go to my house wearing so little, are you sure you don't want to change into a down jacket?" Mo Xiaoxiao explained with a serious face: "The temperature in our house is much lower than that in the city. I called and asked about the snow falling up there." , you are not cold-resistant."

Xiao Tinghui: "..."

Qiao Yuening laughed unceremoniously, and said to Mo Xiaoxiao: "Don't worry about him, he's just running errands as a driver and won't stay at your house for long."

"It's cold on the road too." Mo Xiaoxiao showed a bit of the potential of an old mother, and began to worry about whether Xiao Tinghui was cold or not.

Seeing that the New Year is about to come, Mo Xiaoxiao is going back to her hometown, and Qiao Yuening agrees to go with her to celebrate the New Year.Because this period is the peak period of holidays and the peak period of returning home, and there are only two buses to go to their house, so Xiao Tinghui volunteered to be the driver.The reason why he dressed so handsomely was to impress Mo Xiaoxiao's family, who knew that Mo Xiaoxiao was incomprehensible.

Of course, the bigger reason is that he turned on the wrong screen for Hua Peacock, and the wrong object.

Qiao Yuening brought very little luggage, just two sets of clothes for a change of clothes, and a gift bought in advance.In contrast, Mo Xiaoxiao seemed to be moving. After packing a large box full, there was an extra bag and a handbag.Xiao Tinghui couldn't help being curious, and asked her what she was pretending.

Mo Xiaoxiao thought for a while and said, "It's nothing, just the books, pens, computers, clothes and shoes I usually need, I don't know why there are so many."

I really didn’t bring anything special, I just packed everything that I felt could be used. Although some things that I felt could be used may never be used, but if I don’t bring it with my heart, I will not be at ease.

Xiao Tinghui was unable to support his forehead, and was about to complain, but was stared back by Qiao Yuening, who resentfully stopped the topic and shut up, playing the role of carrying the coolies.

Xiao Tinghui drove Qiao Yuening's car, Qi Fei borrowed his own car to play, and probably won't come back right now.Anyway, she didn't need Qiao Yuening's car, so it was cheaper for Xiao Tinghui.

Mo Xiaoxiao positioned the route for Xiao Tinghui, sat in the back seat with Qiao Yuening, and asked Xiao Tinghui to follow the map.

Mo Xiaoxiao and his family are an hour and a half away from the small town. It is an inconspicuous town surrounded by mountains, and there is a section of rugged winding road in the middle, like an S that needs to be glued together.This section of the road is densely fogged, and people and animals are basically separated beyond ten meters, and there is still white snow in the forest on both sides.

Xiao Tinghui drove very carefully, the visibility in the air was very low, but after driving through the S-shaped mountain road, the road conditions behind became clear, like breaking through the fog and entering a new world.The sight in front of him suddenly widens, and there is still a little Qingdai shadow in the distant mountains, and the white snow is flying like fluttering catkins.The fog behind is like a big dream, and the front is reality.

Mo Xiaoxiao was a little motion sick, and couldn't bear it, and fell on Qiao Yuening's body to rest. Xiao Tinghui followed the navigation until he woke up Mo Xiaoxiao at the located town.Mo Xiaoxiao glanced up at the small town outside the window, directed Xiao Tinghui to drive the car to an inconspicuous path, and walked forward for a few minutes before arriving at the door of Mo Xiaoxiao's house.

This is a peaceful and beautiful small place. The houses are built along the road, and there are few tall buildings.There is a small yard at the entrance of every household, without a fence, and connected to the road.Xiao Tinghui drove the car into the yard, the sound of the car disturbed the people in the house, and someone opened the door to check.

Xiao Tinghui stopped the car and turned off the engine, Mo Xiaoxiao opened the car door, and said to the people who came out: "Mom, I'm back."

Mo's mother looks to be in her forties. She is not tall and thin. There are obvious fine lines on her face. She has an amiable face and looks like a soft-hearted and easy-going person.She was wearing an apron, sleeves, and drops of water on her hands.Seeing Mo Xiaoxiao get off the car, he quickly wiped his hands on the apron and helped Mo Xiaoxiao carry things.

Qiao Yuening and Xiao Tinghui got off the car, Mo Xiaoxiao gave a brief introduction, and Mo's mother happily invited them to come in and sit down.

It was snowing in the town, the temperature was very low, and there was a biting cold wind.Xiao Tinghui gathered his clothes, and only then did he believe that Mo Xiaoxiao really didn't lie to him.Qiao Yuening looked at the independent house in front of her. It was a two-story bungalow with a balcony and white tiles outside the door.Some common flowers and plants are planted around the yard to add color. A red camellia is in full bloom, and only a little red is left covered by the snow.

Mo's mother was still warmly greeting her. Mo Xiaoxiao dragged her suitcase into the house before jumping out to pick up Qiao Yuening and Xiao Tinghui. After getting out of the car for a while, her ears turned red from the cold.

Mo Xiaoxiao’s home looks small but very cozy. He uses a stove for heating at home. The stove is square in shape. The middle is hollowed out for coal to burn. When it’s not in use, it’s covered with a lid. There’s a chimney beside it. Get rid of the carbon dioxide that burns.The fire is very hot in winter, and as soon as everyone walks in, they feel a sense of warmth.

Mo's mother asked Qiao Yuening and Xiao Tinghui to sit casually. Mo Xiaoxiao didn't see her father when she walked around the house, and asked, "Where's my father?"

"He's bored at home, so he's visiting your cousin's house." Mo's mother opened the stove's lid, and a cluster of purple-blue flames sprang out, followed by hot air.She raised her head and asked, "Have you eaten? Are you hungry? I'll make you something to eat."

Xiao Tinghui and Qiao Yuening shook their heads together, Xiao Tinghui said: "Auntie, you don't need to be busy, we came here after lunch, it's still early, we're not hungry."

"Then I'll pour you a cup of tea. My Xiaoxiao seldom brings friends back, so you have to play for two more days." Mo's mother went to pick up the teapot as she spoke, and Mo Xiaoxiao came over to stop her and said, "Mom, why don't you let me go?" Follow me. I just saw something burning on your kitchen stove, and it's boiling."

Mo Xiaoxiao just went to carry her and Qiao Yuening's things upstairs. When she went downstairs, she smelled a smell coming from the kitchen. She took a look at the door and came over to send Mom Mo away.

"My mother is like this. She is very happy to have guests at home. Don't be restrained, our family is not so particular." Mo Xiaoxiao took the teapot, poured tea for the two of them, and smiled sheepishly.

Her house is clean and tidy, and the teacups she uses are made of glass with square mouths. On the wall behind the tea cabinet, there is a wallpaper picture of falling snow and plum blossoms.Mo's mother was too enthusiastic, which made Xiao Tinghui and the others a little embarrassed.

Qiao Yuening held a teacup and looked at Mo Xiaoxiao's family. It was simple but very warm. Her mother looked amiable and had a gentle temperament. Mo Xiaoxiao's gentleness came from her mother.

The three sat at the table to keep warm. After a while, Mo's mother, who was busy in the kitchen, washed the fruit and brought some nuts.After the work in the kitchen was over, she was free and had nothing to do.As the Chinese New Year is approaching, every household is quite leisurely.Chatting with grown-ups is basically a parent's fault. Before Mo Xiaoxiao lied to her mother that she was going to work, Mo's mother thought Qiao Yuening and Xiao Tinghui were her colleagues and asked about their work.

These Mo Xiaoxiaos have all been vaccinated in advance, and the three of them have already made up their speeches. Facing Mo's mother's questioning, you and I interjected, and lied for Mo Xiaoxiao.

"This child has not been with us since she was a child. We have always been worried about her going out alone. If there is something wrong with her, please bear with me." Mo's mother mentioned Mo Xiaoxiao in a tone that she was still young and ignorant , Mo Xiaoxiao was unable to support his forehead.

The time gap between being separated from her parents since she was a child cannot be made up in a short period of time. The lack of family gatherings makes her look like a child in the eyes of her parents, but in fact she has gone through more than ten springs, summers, autumns and winters alone.

Qiao Yuening thought that Mo Xiaoxiao was pretty good, and she talked about Mo Xiaoxiao's good points in front of Mo's mother, and praised Mo Xiaoxiao herself a little bit, wondering if she was really that good.

While everyone was chatting, there was the sound of a car honking from the yard again. Someone got out of the car and walked over on the snow, pushing open the door of Mo Xiaoxiao's house.The cold air that rushed in caused several people in the room to turn their heads away, Mo Xiaoxiao's complexion changed slightly, and suddenly became gloomy.

The person who opened the door looked around the room, his eyes fell on Mo Xiaoxiao, and he said with a smile, "You're back."

Mo Xiaoxiao hummed coldly, and Mo's mother was immediately upset, and got up to greet the man to enter the house.

The man said: "No need, Auntie, I'm bringing you something. This is something you asked me to bring for you. They still have people waiting for me, so I won't sit down."

The man handed over a cardboard box in his hand, his eyes stayed on Xiao Tinghui for a moment, then he turned his head to look at Mo Xiaoxiao, it seemed that he still wanted to have a word with Mo Xiaoxiao.Unexpectedly, Mo Xiaoxiao pretended not to see, and suddenly got up and went to the middle hall, leaving behind her back.The man smiled disappointedly, turned and left.

Qiao Yuening's eyes flickered slightly, and she guessed the identity of this person from the completely different attitudes of Mo Xiaoxiao and Mo's mother.

This is probably the prospective son-in-law that Mo's mother likes, and the person Mo Xiaoxiao hates from the bottom of her heart-Xu Hang.
