Chapter 1690 Running

Cai Meiwen was very angry when she heard Xiao Celery's words at first, because it is obviously not normal for a grown man to make friends with a primary school girl, and it is easy to doubt whether the man has ulterior motives, but when Xiao Celery said that she Always busy, she didn't have a chance to tell her, and she was inexplicably sad, overwhelmed by the flood of frustration.

Little Celery lowered her head and stared at the tip of her shoe, and added in a low voice: "Not only the store manager brother, but also the two shop assistant brothers who are always silly and fufu, the cashier sister who has been drawing seriously, and the mysterious fish sister , they are all my friends..."

Jiang Feifei was stunned for a moment before realizing that the so-called sister fish refers to her, probably because she spends most of her time in the aquarium, and the lights in the aquarium are relatively dim, and she always puts her face on the aquarium intoxicated. Observe the aquatic organisms on the wall of the tank, so she seems a little mysterious-maybe the word mysterious is beautified, what little Celery might really want to say is that she is a little ghostly...

This is probably... the result of the lack of fatherly love.

Cai Meiwen has always believed that she can be a father and a mother at the same time, and she thinks that she is doing well, at least it is much better than those families where both husband and wife have given up their children despite not getting divorced. Celery is still very lonely, but because Xiao Celery has always been very sensible and well-behaved, she doesn't want to worry her, so she doesn't appear lonely.

Little Celery only has friends at school, but no friends in life, because Cai Meiwen doesn't have time and doesn't feel at ease letting her play with other children in the community. She has already spent all her free time with Little Celery, but At present, it seems that it is not enough, or that maternal love cannot completely replace friends.

Cai Meiwen remained silent and did not speak, while Xiao Qincai kept peeping at her face, fearing that she would be angry.

Zhang Zian and the shop assistants are also very worried. They have always regarded Xiao Celery as a non-staff member of this shop. If her mother is angry and forces her not to come in the future, there is nothing they can do. After all, it is her mother. No matter what, she can't let her conflict with her mother because of them.

The eyes of the elves flickered as they watched the silent confrontation.

The quiet indoors make the violent wind and rain outside seem extraordinarily violent.

An awkward silence lasted for a while.

Cai Meiwen caressed Xiao Celery's braids, which she braided for Xiao Celery herself before she set off in the morning. Just by looking at the angle of the two braids, she knew it was Monday.

She cherishes the time spent with her daughter very much, because the child will always grow up without paying attention. She doesn’t know how long she can braid her daughter’s hair. Maybe after a few years, her daughter will think this braid is very rustic and will not let it She makes up.

"Little Celery, tell mom, how did you meet them?" She asked softly.

Little Celery nodded, and told the story of how she became attached to Qiyuan Pet Shop, including things that even Zhang Zian and the others didn't know.

When she first started to go to school alone, she was actually very scared. Everyone around her was much bigger than her, and some of them had fierce faces. She really wanted to escape home and escape to the protection of her mother, but she Thinking that her mother was already very tired, she wanted to lighten her burden.

She was like a poor little animal, cowering across the sidewalk.

Because of fear, she wanted to arrive at school as soon as possible, so she started trotting unknowingly after leaving home.

She ran around corners, breakfast stalls, and shops... except when crossing the road, she kept running.

I don't know if it was the first few days of going to school alone, but when she ran past the pet store, she was suddenly accosted.

"Little friend, have you been going to school by yourself these days? Awesome!" A middle-aged woman with a gentle face stood at the door of the pet shop, greeted her with a smile, and gave her a thumbs up.

Little Celery paused for a while. Her mother told her not to greet strangers, but it seemed impolite not to reply, so she nodded quickly,

keep running.

The next morning, she was accosted by the same middle-aged woman at the door of the pet store.

"Every day I see you running past with vigor, and even I feel younger." The middle-aged woman smiled, wearing an apron and rubber gloves on her hands.

Little Celery glanced into the store, and there was a man of similar age working in the store.

She didn't answer and kept running.

On the third morning, the same thing happened again.

"Little friend, your two braids are very interesting. From a distance, they look like a pair of rabbit ears, and the bouncing is as cute as a bunny." The middle-aged woman continued to smile and threw a bag of garbage into the trash can .

bunny?

Little Celery thought of the little rabbit she saw on TV, it was really cute, she never thought she would look like a little rabbit.

morning of the fourth day.

"Kids, don't run when crossing the road, be careful of the car." The middle-aged woman, wearing a mask and headgear, was pouring some kind of pungent liquid into a sprinkler-like thing at the door of the store.

"Ok."

Although it was only a small hum, Little Celery did reply, which seemed to violate the mother's principle of not letting her talk to strangers, but it's just a hum, maybe it's okay?

morning of the fifth day.

The middle-aged woman didn't work today, she was standing at the door talking to another middle-aged man, and she just waved her hand when she saw Xiao Celery.

"Send him a message and ask him if he will be back during the Golden Week." The man said, "If I come back, I will buy meat and fish in advance, otherwise it will be expensive before the festival."

"Come back, I will definitely come back. Eleventh and the Mid-Autumn Festival are together. How can I not come back? Aunt Liu also said that she would introduce someone to him." The middle-aged woman said this, but her face seemed unsure, with a look of worrying about gains and losses expectations.

Who wants to come back?

Little Celery also waved her hand a little in response - if she just waved her hand, it wouldn't count as talking to a stranger, right?

The sixth day... Well, the sixth and seventh days are weekends, no classes.

By the next Monday, when she ran past the pet store, the middle-aged woman would still greet her every day, even if she didn't respond.

Running is very tiring, and the sky has not completely cooled down, so it is also very hot. She will sweat a lot every day when she runs to school.

When she ran to the pet store, she was already very close to the school, and she felt at ease, as if she didn't have to be so scared, so she would unconsciously slow down, take a break, and take a breath.

"Wipe your sweat?"

A few meters away, a middle-aged woman stood at the door of the store and handed her a pack of tissues.

Little Celery shook her head.

On Tuesday, the middle-aged woman offered her tissues again.

Celery stopped.
