Nine Star Burden - Chapter 447
Chapter 447: It was indeed perfect
After more than four hours of driving, Jiang Xiao finally drove back to Huayuan estate.
Jiang Xiao took a change of clothes and washed up carefully in the bathroom in the living room. After that, he returned to his small bedroom, only to discover that his bed had been occupied.
The damn big cat was curled up in his small bed, sleeping soundly.
Feeling rather helpless, Jiang Xiao exited his room again. He knew that she must have known that he had entered the room and was staring at her back with a helpless expression for a long time.
However, she had no intention of getting up. Perhaps she was too lazy to move.
I’ll let this matter go on account of your confession today.
Jiang Xiao walked out with his mobile phone and charger and barged into little jiangxue’s room.
After charging his mobile phone, Jiang Xiao had a good night’s sleep.
At 18 O’ clock in the evening, Jiang Xiao woke up and replied to a few messages on his mobile phone. It seemed that little jiangxue would only be back in two days.
Jiang Xiao looked around and rolled up the bedsheets before walking into the bathroom.
…
The washing machine was a great invention. Before little jiangxue returned, Jiang Xiao should be able to make the house look brand new.
Jiang Xiao took a look at the time and ordered a takeaway. He then did some housework while waiting for the food to arrive.
The doorbell finally rang at 19 O’ clock.
Jiang Xiao opened the door and stood at the entrance for a while, watching the elevator arrive on the seventh floor like a little bird waiting to be fed.
After living here for so long, this was the first time he received a takeaway from inside the door …
Jiang Xiao carried two bags of food and walked towards the kitchen. While placing the food on the table, he shouted,”Second last, get up and eat!”
Jiang Xiao knew that second last would definitely be able to hear him. She probably didn’t get up because she was too lazy to do so.
Jiang Xiao simply walked over and pushed the door open.””Get up and eat …”
His small room was empty.
Jiang Xiao’s hand that was holding the doorknob slid down slightly. She … Already left?
He lowered his head and looked at the hair tie on his wrist. This woman didn’t even say goodbye and just left without a word?
Perhaps she really didn’t want to spend the new year together.
Jiang Xiao shook his head helplessly and returned to the kitchen to eat his fill.
The next day, it was still a day of housework.
To her surprise, at threeo’ clock in the afternoon, Jiang Xiao heard the sound of the door opening while he was changing the clean bedsheets for each room.
Jiang Xiao was slightly taken aback and walked out of the master bedroom with the bedsheets in his arms.
Who’s here?
No one had the key to their house?
As soon as the man entered, Jiang Xiao immediately got angry and said,””Where did you get the key?”
Second last’s hair was disheveled as she bent down to pick up a pair of slippers from the shoe rack. She threw them on the ground and said,””Yes.”
What the hell is ‘hmm’?
Jiang Xiao was a little frustrated and said,””Don’t change your shoes, I’m going out to buy New Year’s goods, come with me. ”
Second last stood up straight and looked at Jiang Xiao to confirm.””New year goods.”
“Yes, new year goods, such as couplets, the word” fortune,”candy, vegetables, fruits, new clothes, and so on.” Jiang Xiao looked at second last and explained patiently.
Second last was speechless.
“What’s the matter?”Jiang Xiao asked.
Second last said,”I know what New Year’s goods mean. I’m asking you if you want me to go with you.”
Jiang Xiao glanced at her in a bad mood and said,””Give me a moment, I’ll change my clothes.”
Second last hesitated for a moment but didn’t say anything in the end.
When Jiang Xiao quickly changed his clothes and walked out, he happened to see second last leaning against the door frame, looking bored.
Jiang Xiao laughed and asked,’have you gotten used to your new hairstyle?’ Or is this your only hair tie?”
Second last glanced at Jiang Xiao impatiently and turned around.””I’m done. Let’s go. ”
Jiang Xiao took off the hair tie from his wrist and casually tied her long hair up. He then quickly tied it up, looking like he was doing it perfunctorily.
Second last didn’t say anything and the two of them quickly left the house.
Second last’s presence meant that he had a private car to use, which saved Jiang Xiao a lot of trouble.
Bringing such a huge pet out to shop did have its advantages and disadvantages.
As for profits … She could help carry a lot of things.
As for the disadvantage, well, she was too conspicuous. Besides, Jiang Xiao was already a famous person to begin with, which gave him a lot of trouble.
The two of them didn’t shop for long before their photos appeared on Weibo. Some gossip media even reposted them.
“The National champion brought a mysterious woman shopping for New Year’s goods back home for the holidays.”
“The mysterious woman is dressed in black and is suspected to be the little toxic healer’s bodyguard. Black trench coat, black sunglasses, and black Army boots, cool entrance. ”
Jiang Xiao also saw the news later and was almost overjoyed because second last, who was dressed in black and looked cool, was carrying two kilograms of pig’s head …
In the past three hours, second last remained silent and simply followed Jiang Xiao to carry his things.
It was only when she saw Jiang Xiao buying a variety of dumpling fillings, including fish, and a pack of dumpling skins at the farmer’s market that second last couldn’t hold it in anymore.
Second last said,”there are frozen dumplings.”
Jiang Xiao turned around to look at second last and said,”we don’t know how to make dumpling filling. You can buy it directly.” We don’t know how to roll the dumpling skin, but we can still buy the finished product. But it’s the new year, and not eating frozen dumplings is my bottom line. ”
Second last did not comment on Jiang Xiao’s so-called bottom line and instead asked,””Do you know how to wrap?”
Jiang Xiao was speechless.
Behind the counter, the Auntie selling dumpling skins was especially enthusiastic. She said,””If you guys don’t know how to make dumplings, I have handmade dumplings. You can just cook them when you get home.”
“Ah, no need, no need. You can just weigh the price.” Jiang Xiao hurriedly said,”we’re All Star Warriors and are especially talented in sports. We’ll learn how to make dumplings.”
The middle-aged woman laughed.”I’ve long guessed that you guys practice martial arts. Look at this big girl. Even if she’s not a Star Warrior, she’s made for basketball.”
Second last was speechless.
Jiang Xiao chuckled and said,”of course. This is my master. I won first place in the country on behalf of Beijiang province last year. She was the one who taught me.”
The middle-aged woman was stunned.”Oh my God! Is this for real?”
“I’m not lying,”Jiang Xiao said.
“I was wondering why you looked so familiar. I think I’ve seen you in the news before!” It’s amazing. I’ll get you more so you can eat more when you go back. ”
The Auntie had just stuck the price on the bag and had not sealed it yet. When she heard this, she grabbed a large handful of meat filling and threw it into the bag.
Second last looked at Jiang Xiao with a strange expression. Because she was carrying bags in both hands, she raised her leg and kicked Jiang Xiao’s butt.””Give them money.”
Jiang Xiao looked at second last helplessly and thought, why should I give her money? They all paid the bill when they went out! Have you been to the market before?
The middle-aged woman grabbed another handful of dumpling skins and stuffed them into the bag.”No need, no need. Young man, you’ve brought honor to our hometown. Grow up, eat more, eat more, hahaha.”
After bidding farewell to the enthusiastic aunty, Jiang Xiao bought a lot of vegetables and fruits. He only ended his shopping trip when he finally filled the trunk of the car.
After returning home, second last threw down the bags in her hands and ran straight to the sofa in the living room before collapsing onto it.
Jiang Xiao could only sigh helplessly when he saw how nonchalant she was.
While second last was watching television out of boredom, she noticed that Jiang Xiao had put the dumpling wrappers and dumpling fillings into the refrigerator. She couldn’t help but ask,””What’s the Difference?”
Jiang Xiao was sorting the items when he heard her words. He turned around and looked at second last in confusion.
Second last raised her head slightly and gestured at the dumpling filling that Jiang Xiao had put in the refrigerator.””What’s the difference between this and frozen dumplings?”
Jiang Xiao said,’the only difference is that you’ll have to make them yourself on Chinese New Year’s Eve. Don’t just sit there and do nothing. Look for a guide on the internet and learn how to make dumplings. ”
Second last snorted and changed the channels randomly without moving the remote control.
……
The next day, little jiangxue finally came back from her vacation!
Jiang Xiao finally had a helper and second last wasn’t as unreasonable as he had imagined. She just spoke less.
Han Jiangxue was very respectful and grateful to second last. She was also happy that second last could spend the new year at home.
The year 2017 was the lunar year and the chicken year. This New Year, the house was more lively.
Jiang Xiao’s hometown was full of Chinese New Year celebrations and had some traditions. For example, after his parents passed away, he was not allowed to put up couplets or set off firecrackers for three years. This was a folk custom.
Last year was the first time the siblings had celebrated the new year in the truest sense of the word. This year, the situation seemed to be better.
Everyone wanted to lead a better life, and Han Jiangxue and Jiang Xiao had achieved it with their actions.
In the past year, the two of them had handed in an almost perfect answer!
They fought all over the world and conquered one tournament after another. The provincial League, the second wasteland reclamation competition, the National League …
Step by step, they were down-to-earth and fought for glory after glory.
This included the acceptance letter from the top star Warrior University in China, as well as the apprentice quota for pioneering and the apprentice quota for Night Watch.
The results were extremely outstanding!
On the night of the 29th day of the lunar calendar, Han Jiangxue stood alone in the master bedroom and looked up at her parents ‘photo on the wall. She did not come out for a long time.
The haze that had clouded her mind for three years had gradually dissipated in the past one and a half years. In the past, she had too many grievances and heartache, but now, she was filled with happiness and longing.
She had too many stories to tell her parents, and the main character of these stories was mostly him.
At this time, Jiang Xiao was standing in front of the door of Room 701 in the corridor and putting up couplets with second last.
The lazy second last finally found a place to put her skills to use. She didn’t need to step on the stool and could easily touch the top of the door frame with her hands.
Jiang Xiao looked at the couplets and instructed,””Lower to the left. Yes, lower … Tsk, tsk, perfect!”
Second last stuck the glass glue and took a few steps back to stand beside Jiang Xiao. She looked up slightly at the horizontal line that had just been stuck on the glass. He had a great plan.
Second last stretched out her hand and rubbed Jiang Xiao’s head gently while thinking to herself,”It was indeed perfect.
