The new puppy has never been named.

No one dared to call it Xiaotao, and no one dared to give it a new name.

However, it unknowingly took Xiaotao's place and went for a walk with them.

"Xiaonan!" Walking towards her was Zhu Xiaoxiao, who was also the one who helped Xiaonan find this puppy that was exactly like Xiaotao.

"Xiaoxiao!" Xiaonan smiled and waved to Xiaoxiao.

However, Zhu Xiaoxiao did not come over as usual, only called "uncle and aunt" and then stood where she was.

Xiaonan felt a little strange, so she talked to her parents and walked towards Zhu Xiaoxiao.

Zhu Xiaoxiao's expression was a bit strange, restrained, anxious, and a little shy. He glanced at Ning Zhenqian and Tao Zi who were not far away, and said in a low voice, "Little girl, shall we go for a walk alone?"

"Okay!" Xiaonan readily agreed.

The puppy wagged its tail and ran at Xiaonan's feet.

Xiaonan kicked it lightly, "Don't follow, go for a walk with brother!"

The puppy whined twice, and reluctantly returned to Ning Zhenqian and the others.

Xiaonan smiled, "This guy still remembers you!"

"Really?" Zhu Xiaoxiao looked at the puppy meaningfully and smiled, "How long will the dog remember me? Will time and distance make it forget me soon?"

Zhu Xiaoxiao looked slightly melancholy.Xiaonan is used to his gentle expression, and he also has such watery eyes and a light smile on weekdays, but today, it is still a little different.

"What's the matter with you?" Although Xiaonan has a bright and boyish personality, she is not careless. She sensitively noticed Zhu Xiaoxiao's strangeness, and she couldn't help laughing, "No way? You can't bear to give me the dog? It's only been a few years between our two families." Far? What time and distance? If you want a dog, come to my house to see it! Remember to bring my favorite food in addition to dog food!"

Walking in the compound where she grew up, Zhu Xiaoxiao stared at the gradually verdant spring, the corners of her lips curled up slightly, it was another spring, 18 years before she knew it, did they know each other since birth?

"Xiaonan, take good care of Xiaotao." Seeing Xiaotao's departure made Xiaonan feel so sad, so I spent a lot of effort to find a puppy that was exactly like Xiaotao and gave it to her, hoping to make up for the gap in her heart. No one understands Xiaonan's feelings for Xiaotao better than him.

Under the setting sun, there was a hint of sadness in Xiaonan's bright smile, "Yes! I will! Thank you for helping me find it! It's just that it's not called Xiaotao..."

Zhu Xiaoxiao was startled, then smiled for a moment, seeming to understand her very well, "That's right, some things are irreplaceable..."

"No!" Xiaonan seemed to see the disappointment in his eyes, "It's not that I don't want to call it Xiaotao, but that Xiaotao is my brother's most special existence, I think he can tell the difference, this Xiaotao is not that Xiaotao, I don't even know what to call it now."

A faint feeling of disappointment surged in Zhu Xiaoxiao's heart. The reason why Xiaotao was found was because of her, and she couldn't bear her sadness. She just wished to let go of all her regrets and dreams, and never thought of anything else. Xiaotao herself, but because of Mo Wang...

However, staring at her innocent and slightly sad smile, he felt relieved in an instant.

She valued her brother so much, if everything he did could make her brother happy, wouldn't it also make her happy?What more can I ask for?

"Xiaonan." He kept his hands in his trouser pockets, lowered his head, and kicked away a naughty stone on the sole of his feet.

"Huh?" Xiaonan was a lot shorter than him, she tilted her head, and leaned in front of him like she did when she was a child, peeping at the meaning in his eyes, so hesitant, why?

Facing the pair of bright black eyes that suddenly approached, and the girlish aura that suddenly came to his nostrils, Zhu Xiaoxiao's ears immediately started to heat up, his heartbeat also suddenly accelerated, and he couldn't help but take two steps back.

"What's wrong with you? You're blushing!" Xiaonan smiled in surprise.

Zhu Xiaoxiao shook his head secretly. This girl was extremely clever when speaking, but she was also extremely slow at certain times. The children who grew up together in the yard were still defenseless against each other. Most of the time, he really didn't know. In Xiaonan's mind, is there any difference between herself and Erqi Haozi?

"Xiao Nan..." He cleared his throat, "What did you give Er Qi for his birthday last time?"

"Erqi?" Xiaonan thought for a while and laughed, "Don't laugh at me! I wanted to make him a cake myself. I learned from Grandma Qin seriously, but I really made it. I couldn’t get it out, so I had to take the one made by Grandma Qin and borrow flowers to present Buddha! I warn you, don’t tell Erqi that until now, Erqi still thinks that I made it by myself! Let’s not destroy his beautiful Memories!"

The corners of Zhu Xiaoxiao's lips were slightly curved. She didn't know how much he envied Er Qi, who allowed her to prepare gifts by herself. Could it be that the companionship and protection for so many years, in her heart, was really just treating everyone equally?

"Xiaonan, if... I also want you to give me a gift, would you like to think about what to give me?" Under the setting sun, he asked with a smile, his peaceful smile was coated with a conspicuous golden layer, As a result, the tension and apprehension that was trying to hide was inadvertently revealed in the eyes.

Xiaonan looked at him suspiciously, "Gift? Isn't your birthday already passed? It's February! Didn't I already give it away?"

"Yes..." Should he be happy?After all, she remembered his birthday, and she had indeed given him a birthday present. It was a pen brought to her by her aunt from abroad, and she liked it very much. "But Xiaonan, I still want to receive your gift next week, will you give it?"

"..." Xiaonan pursed her lips slightly and stared at him, how could she ask someone for a gift like this? "Okay! For the sake of our brothers for many years, I will reluctantly agree! Say, what do you want?"

He smiled, happy, but mixed with sadness, for the sake of his brothers who have been there for many years... "You have to think about what to give! It's boring if I say it clearly! Anyway, it's a very important day!"

"A very important day? Your parents' wedding anniversary? But what does it matter to you?" Xiaonan stuck out her tongue at him mischievously.

He likes to see her bright smile in Wuchengfu the most. He indulged her jokes and said, "You will know when the time comes. I want a commemorative gift. You can't put more thought into it than the cake for Erqi. Not much, and don't give too much gifts, and don't give me what others give you!"

Is this a warning?Xiaonan pursed her lips, "This is difficult! I've been tricked by one two, and the second one, what should I do?"

His face suddenly sank, well, it turns out that he is only the second best...

"Don't mention both!" Even with a frown, he was so gentle, "It's settled! I'll wait for your gift next week! In order to reciprocate, I also have a gift for you here, come, take it!"

As he said that, he took out a small box and handed it to her, "This gift is not worth much, but I chose it for a long time, and the words on it were carved on purpose by me!"

Why give gifts for no reason?

However, there is no need to be polite with Zhu Xiaoxiao, so although she was puzzled, she still took it and was going to open it to have a look.

But Zhu Xiaoxiao pressed her hand, "Don't watch it! I'll watch it when I get home!"

Xiaonan was even more puzzled, what is this guy Zhu Xiaoxiao playing with?

"Okay, it's getting darker and darker, let's go here, I'll take you back!" Zhu Xiaoxiao stopped in his tracks, and when the night fell, the little girl in front of her was as clean as an epiphyllum.

Xiaonan wanted to open the box all the way to see what gifts were inside. It felt too uncomfortable to have a gift that could not be opened, but she couldn't do anything about being held down by Zhu Xiaoxiao all the way.

So, when I got home and found that my parents and my brother hadn't come back, the first thing I did was to rush into the bedroom to unwrap presents!

As Zhu Xiaoxiao said, the gift was indeed not expensive, but it was very suitable for her. It was a very cute silver pendant in the shape of a little mermaid.

Zhu Xiaoxiao really has a heart!I remember she said that the place she most yearns for is the sea.She wants to be a fish that swims in the sea, and for this reason, she has made up her mind to apply for the Naval Academy...

The mermaid is one sided with engraving on the back.

Uh, Zhu Xiaoxiao said, he chose the characters, but she wanted to see what was engraved on them.

The words were very small, she looked carefully at the lamp, and it was this sentence: I will treat you with long hair up to your waist.

What's the meaning?The little girl sat on the bed and thought.

This sentence should have been like this: When I grow hair up to my waist, will the young man marry me?

She has had short hair since the third grade, and she started to grow it long this year. The friends were puzzled and extremely distrustful of her earth-shattering behavior of growing long hair. They all bet on the final length of her hair, and everyone bet on her The hair does not grow past the shoulders.

Although she didn't like to grow long hair, she was still irritated by such "contempt". She compared her waist and swore to the sky, "Listen, according to the growth rate of my hair, I, Ning Xiaonan, will definitely be able to do it." Waist-length hair when you graduate from college!"

Everyone expressed disbelief, only Zhu Xiaoxiao watched silently and smiled faintly.

The person who is the most indifferent is the one who remembers the most. So, did the phrase "I'll treat you with long hair up to your waist" come from this little episode?Does that... have anything to do with the last sentence?

Xiaonan thought, her thoughts were a little messed up.

The bits and pieces of growing up with my friends over the years flooded into my mind. When I thought about it carefully, it seemed that Zhu Xiaoxiao was different from Erqi and the others. He would never fight with her. When she and Erqi and the others were fighting together , he just watched quietly from the side like the princess-like Le Yan, with a smile on his face all the time.

However, he will always appear at any moment she needs, even including the occasional embarrassing moment when she misses in class and is called up by the teacher to answer questions. The person who gives her "on-site assistance" must be him...

Is this him a special existence?

It was the first time that the spring water in the heart lake was disturbed, and Xiaonan kept thinking about falling asleep, but she didn't think about it clearly.

The next morning, when I saw Zhu Xiaoxiao again, I was a little blushing, but Zhu Xiaoxiao didn't feel abnormal at all, as if nothing had happened, so she was thinking too much of herself?

The first time Zhu Xiaoxiao saw her, he stared at her neck, only to see that Bai Xi's neck was as bright as porcelain, and the throbbing of the green young man couldn't help but feel more disappointed.She didn't wear what he gave her?However, why has he worn that little golden bell since he was a child and is reluctant to take it?She, a silly girl, doesn't know the origin of the golden bell, but he does know that it was a gift from Le Yan's brother for the full moon. She has worn it close to her body for 18 years. He doesn't know how jealous she is of that little golden bell... …

"Hey, have you figured out what to give me?" He sat down at her front table and asked, knocking on her table.

"Ah?" He took it seriously... "Think about it! I will give you a surprise then!" Can it be said that I was tired of thinking about messy things last night and completely forgot about the gift?

Zhu Xiaoxiao pursed her lips in satisfaction, "Well, good boy..."

good?The little girl felt that such a tone was even more strange. Is there something wrong with Zhu Xiaoxiao?She asked suspiciously, "Zhu Xiaoxiao, have you studied too hard lately? How come it's not you?" She didn't dare to say whether he had damaged his brain due to excessive use of his brain...

Zhu Xiaoxiao frowned, ignored her, and buried himself in his book.

Knowing that she said the wrong thing, Xiaonan stuck out her tongue, not paying attention to it, and untied the knot in her heart from last night, making sure that Zhu Xiaoxiao didn't have another meaning, so she went to play with her classmates in peace.

Although Xiaonan was relieved, Tao Zi and Ning Zhenqian were anxious.

The scene where Zhu Xiaoxiao had a private conversation with Xiaonan that day has been replaying in their minds for the past few days.

Unknowingly, the little Maotou from back then has grown up, and Zhu Xiaoxiao has grown into a gentle and jade-like boy, standing with Xiaonan in the fiery red sunset, like a golden boy and a jade girl, like a pair of lovers...

"You said... Xiaonan and Xiaoxiao fell in love early?" Tao Zi was worried about the problem that every parent of adolescent children is worried about.The college entrance examination is about to begin, and at this time, the parents should be careful when accompanying them, for fear that they will not be handled properly and affect the college entrance examination.

Ning Zhenqian didn't like this topic the most. At the beginning, Tong Tong was only a little boy, and he hated him for several years when he said he wanted to marry his daughter. Why doesn't he get annoyed when it gets closer?

Therefore, it doesn't matter whether he belongs to the Lu family or the Zhu family, as long as he covets his little daughter, it will make him unhappy!Back then, he had pampered Xiaonan and Xiaoxiao's childhood sweethearts, but now that he thinks about it, he regrets it...

However, like Tao Zi, at this juncture, he did not dare to act rashly, lest he would frighten Tao Zi, so he could only comfort Tao Zi in a self-deceiving way, "No! Absolutely not! Our little girl is not sensible yet, and she is completely treating the Zhu family boy Be a brother, and..."

Speaking of this, Ning Zhenqian kept his mouth shut, only to find Tao Zi's hand on his waist, and frowned.

Tao Zi pretended to be relaxed and smiled, "It's okay, go to sleep!"

"Really?" Ning Zhenqian didn't believe it at all. After 20 years of husband and wife, if they still don't understand the meaning of her frowns and smiles, I'm afraid they will be scolded like a fool again...

He reached out and touched her waist, but he didn't feel anything, but she couldn't help but shrink back.

Come to small print dare often. "Pain?" he asked, frowning. 13acv.

Seeing that he couldn't hide it, Tao Zi had no choice but to nod, and then relieved him, "It's nothing serious! I think I've been tired for the past two days! Just rest for two days! Don't make trouble, let me sleep..."

His eyes still didn't relax, staring at her made her feel embarrassed, so she slid into the quilt and leaned towards him, "Good night, chief, I'm very tired..."

Seeing her like this, it was inconvenient for him to say anything else. He didn't want to disturb her rest, so he obeyed her and turned off the lights to sleep. At the same time, he put his arms around her in his arms.

The habit of 20 years has not changed, the petite she always likes to sleep in his arms, even though she is no longer young, it seems that only in his arms can she find the most peaceful place to belong...

However, tonight, she couldn't rest peacefully. She tried to sleep for a while, the pain became more and more severe, she couldn't sleep, and trembled slightly.

He turned on the light, and found her biting her lips tightly, her face was pale, and she was sweating like beans.

Immediately, his face darkened, and he shouted, "Ninny! How dare you lie about the military situation! I think you have to deal with it!"

The more serious the reprimand was, the more worried he was, he immediately got up, called the car, picked her up, and rushed to the hospital.

Life is like this, gathering and parting, birth, old age, sickness and death, the most feared beauty is easy to grow old, but unfortunately, no one can escape the passage of time...
