Was fired and opened a gourmet food store

"Okay, stop crying. I'm just kidding. I won't let Sister Xiaoye give you extra homework."

Seeing his sister crying, Xu Ziqi quickly coaxed her. He was just trying to scare the little girl.

Although today's primary school students are also very hardworking, and there are endless tutoring classes and interest classes, Xu Ziqi still hopes that his sister can have a happy childhood.

Instead of looking back on her childhood when she grows up, she thinks that it was all about endless homework and endless training classes.

That would be too boring.

"Really?"

Hearing her brother say this, Xu Ruoling wiped her tears with her little hands and sobbed to confirm that her bad brother had scared her several times.

"Yes, really, I will never lie to you."

Xu Ziqi made another promise, and the little girl was relieved and burst into laughter.

The family started talking and laughing again.

Not long after, they arrived at their destination.

Grandpa and grandma had been waiting at the door for a long time. Seeing the family coming back, the old people smiled sincerely.

It has been a long time since the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren reunited in their hometown.

"Hello, grandpa and grandma."

After getting off the car, Xu Ruoling jumped to the grandpa and grandma, greeted them, and was taken to the house by grandpa and grandma, and talked vividly about various interesting things she had encountered recently.

After that, she ran to the yard and played with a cat and a dog.

These are the cats and dogs of the neighbors.

The cat is a tabby cat, and the dog is a big yellow dog.

Since Xu Ziqi was a child, this pair of cats and dogs often came to his house.

Occasionally, when it was time for dinner, they would get some leftovers and bones. If it was normal, they would either walk around or lie in the yard, lazily basking in the sun.

When they first saw Xu Ruoling, they were still a little strange. They ran to the little girl and rubbed against her. The little girl touched them and then they began to get familiar with each other.

"What are your names?"

"Woof woof~"

"Meow~"

"Oh, so it's woof and meow. My name is Xu Ruoling, and you can call me Ling'er." Xu Ruoling giggled.

In fact, she had seen them when she was a child, but she didn't remember it at that time, so she didn't have any impression.

But after the test just now, this pair of cats and dogs remembered it.

At this time, the dog wagged its tail and looked at the little girl curiously, as if it was surprised at how the little girl grew up so fast.

The cat lay flat with its eyes closed. It was originally irritable, but now it let Xu Ruoling rub it.

Xu Ruoling was having fun, so she turned around and said to Xu Ziqi, "Brother, let's raise a cat and a dog when we go back."

Xu Ziqi thought about it and thought it was feasible, but he had never raised a pet before, so he didn't agree first, but just said he would go back and see.

Since today is New Year's Eve and it's almost noon, they just chatted for a while, and the whole family started to move, dividing up their respective tasks.

Grandpa and grandma are responsible for picking vegetables, and parents are responsible for killing geese.

The goose is raised by our family, weighing a full ten kilograms. This kind of goose tastes a hundred times more delicious than the ones outside, and it is a must-have dish on the table during the New Year and festivals.

"Humph, I told you to bite me, I'll stew you later."

Looking at her parents plucking the goose, Xu Ruoling gritted her teeth and spoke.

The reason was that she volunteered to catch it just now, but was pecked.

Xu Ziqi looked a little funny and knocked her head, "Hurry up and work, otherwise you won't be able to eat." Their task is to post Spring Festival couplets.

"Why did you hit me?" Xu Ruoling covered her head, puffed her cheeks, and wanted to hit back angrily.

Xu Ziqi ran away with a "Oh yo".

The brother and sister chased after him.

"You two slow down." Xu Gaoyi and Liang Sufen were a little helpless. This pair of brothers and sisters had a very good relationship when they just met, but now that time has passed, they have started to act like monsters again.

The two old people didn't think it was a big deal, and they watched with relief. This is the embodiment of a good relationship.

After lunch, my parents started steaming rice cakes. Xu Ziqi packed the New Year's Eve dinner first, thought about it, and took his sister out for a walk.

After all, it's rare to come back once, and it's boring to stay in the room.

"Brother, the air here is so fresh." Walking on the path in the field, Xu Ruoling squinted her eyes, took a deep breath, and said sweetly.

She hadn't been back to the countryside for a long time, and now she finally knew what the fresh air mentioned in the book felt like.

"Ling'er, do you want to set off firecrackers?" Xu Ziqi ignored his sister. He was looking for something and finally found it.

"Yes, where are the firecrackers?" Xu Ruoling opened her eyes with curiosity. She hadn't played with them for a long time.

"Wait." Xu Ziqi took something out of his pocket and threw it to the ground.

"Pah!"Xu Ruoling was taken aback by the unprepared.

"This is a firecracker. Here, just throw it on the ground." Xu Ziqi handed over a few. These were bought in advance before returning to the countryside.

Even though she felt a little nervous just now, Xu Ruoling still took it and threw it on the ground like her brother.

There was a "pop" sound, and she smiled. This was too fun.

"Brother, what are you doing?"

Xu Ruoling was playing, but she saw her brother walk to a place, squatted down and fiddled with something. She walked over curiously.

Xu Ziqi took her away directly, walked a little further, and then told her, "Just watch here." After that, he walked back.

Xu Ruoling nodded blankly. She just saw it. Wasn't it a pile of cow dung?

What did her brother want to do?

Soon she knew the answer.

"Bang!!!"

With a loud bang, a black mass flew all over the ground, causing Xu Ziqi, who was standing in front of Xu Ruoling, to stretch out his hands to avoid it.

"Damn, can this blast so far?"

Xu Ziqi pulled his white down jacket helplessly, which was stained with some black spots from the black mass.

Since returning from the winter solstice, he has decided to find a pile of cow dung and blow it up with firecrackers next time.

He had made an estimate before the explosion, but he didn't expect that he was so vulnerable to defense that he was still affected.

But even so, he still smiled happily. Being happy is enough. As for the clothes, he would go back and wash them. Even if he was scolded, he would accept it.

"Are you Xu Ziqi?"

The brother and sister were playing in the field. Maybe because the firecrackers were too loud just now, someone was attracted over, and Xu Ziqi turned his head to look over.

Oh, isn't this an old acquaintance.
