Ji Xi originally planned to go out to eat at noon, but when Gu Qingyu came, he couldn't take the guests out to eat, but the house was full of snacks and there was no food, so he had to go out to buy.
Glancing at the two who were watching cartoons and eating snacks, Ji Xi warned, "I'm going downstairs to buy groceries, you guys watch TV at home, you are not allowed to open the door to strangers, and you are not allowed to run out, do you understand?"
When Ji Cao heard that she was about to go out, she immediately jumped down, ran towards Ji Xi at a high speed, and hugged Ji Xi's thigh in the blink of an eye, "I want to go too."
"I'll go to the supermarket to buy some groceries, and I'll be back in a while, and you and your little friend will take care of the house at home." Ji Xi took her aside, "If you go over, we will definitely stay for a long time."
"No." Ji Cao raised three fingers and assured, "It really won't."
Ji Xi didn't believe it, but he couldn't bear Ji Cao's torture, so he could only nod his head in agreement.
Seeing that she agreed, Ji Cao quickly asked Gu Qingyu to come over and put on shoes and go out together, "Let's go to the supermarket to buy delicious food."
Ji Xi: "...you can't buy too much."
According to Ji Cao's past virtues, when he entered the supermarket, he would buy and buy without stopping, and then he would procrastinate for a long time. If it was before, she wouldn't mind, but now there is a little customer, and it always feels weird to take him to the supermarket.
"I know, just buy a little bit." Ji Cao nodded.
Ji Xi held his forehead and reminded, "Then kid, remember to follow us closely."
Ji Cao imitated her tone and told Gu Qingyu, "Little Yu'er, remember to follow us closely."
"Okay." Gu Qingyu looked around, then trotted to stand beside Ji Cao.
The supermarket is nearby, just a few minutes' walk away.
"Let's go first—" Ji Xi was about to say to go shopping first, but the next second he saw Ji Xi and Gu Qingyu running towards the dim sum area.
Ji Xi: "..." She knew it would happen.
"Xiao Xi, come here quickly." Ji Cao ran to the bread area and kept urging Ji Xi to push the cart over.
"Go slowly." Ji Xi walked over with a cart, "Which one do you want to buy?"
"This one, this one, and these few more." Ji Cao kept nodding, almost finishing the selection there.
"I can only choose five." Ji Xi rubbed her hair, "You and the kid are two."
"Then there is one left?" Ji Cao rolled her eyes, "Does Xiaoxi want to eat too?"
Ji Xi turned around and asked the clerk to wrap up the five cakes that Ji Cao had chosen just now, then looked down at Ji Cao, "We will reward whoever is better at that time."
"Xiaocao is the most obedient." Ji Cao suddenly showed a shy smile, and turned to look at Gu Qingyu, "Xiaoyuer, don't you think so?"
"Yes." Gu Qingyu nodded, then looked at Ji Xi, "Sister Ji Xi, I just want one cake, and Xiaocao will just give the rest."
Ji Xi didn't expect Gu Qingyu to be so sensible, and shook his head, "It's okay, anyway, she eats cakes every day, it doesn't matter if she eats one or two less."
Ji Cao stuck out her tongue, quickly stopped the topic, and dragged Ji Xi to the next place, "Let's go buy tonight's supper."
"I can only buy some jelly, not potato chips and melon seeds." Ji Xi thought of Ji Cao eating melon seeds while watching those bloody TV dramas, and deeply doubted whether Ji Cao was still a monster who had cultivated into a spirit. Learned ten percent.
Ji Cao really wanted to buy a bunch of melon seeds, but seeing that Ji Xi disagreed, she could only turn around, "I see."
In the end, Ji Xi came back slowly with the bag in both hands. Apart from the vegetables to buy, there were also a lot of snacks.
"Now I'm going to cook, you guys watch TV obediently." Ji Xi put down the bag, changed into slippers, took out two pairs of slippers for the two of them to change into, and then picked up the two bags.
Gu Qingyu raised her hand obediently, "Sister Ji Xi, I'll help you pick vegetables."
Ji Cao just likes to join in the fun, so she immediately raised her hand, "I want to help pick vegetables too."
Ji Xi: "No, it's fine for me to be alone, and it's fine for you to watch TV while eating jelly."
Gu Qingyu said urgently: "It's okay, I helped my aunt pick vegetables at home.",
"Yes, sister Xiaoxi, let us help together." Ji Cao rolled up her sleeves enthusiastically, "I saw you do it before, so I'm sure I can help too."
"Yes, then you guys can come over and help." Ji Xi could only nod his head in agreement, "Xiaolu, go and get a basin to fill the vegetables."
"Okay." After Ji Cao answered, she quickly ran in and brought out a basin, and looked at Ji Xi begging for praise, "Sister Xiaoxi, is this it?"
"No, this is a plate for things you took." Ji Xi held his forehead, and resignedly went to the kitchen to take out a water basin for the two of them, "Just put the vegetables you picked here."
"Okay." Gu Qingyu took it and followed Ji Cao to the side to pick vegetables.
Ji Cao recalled how Ji Xi had dealt with it before, quickly pawing here and scratching there.
"Xiaocao, you are so wasteful, just take off the yellow leaves." Gu Qingyu took a look, and found that Ji Cao made the vegetables look like a dog gnawed them, some yellow leaves were not removed, and He also picked off some green leaves, and quickly stopped to show Ji Cao.
"So it's like this, you know so much." Ji Cao looked at him in admiration, then picked up a new vegetable to imitate his movements, and asked, "Is that so?"
"Yes, you are so smart." Gu Qingyu praised, then remembered something, "Yes, Xiaocao."
Ji Cao looked up at him, "What's wrong?"
"Xiaocao is called Xiaocao, why does elder sister Ji Xi call you Xiaolu?" Gu Qingyu thought about this question for a long time, but couldn't figure it out no matter what.
"This..." Ji Cao really didn't think about this question, "Maybe it was called casually, it's just a nickname anyway."
Gu Qingyu asked again: "But why don't you call me Xiaohong, Xiaobai and Xiaohei, instead of Xiaolu?"
Ji Cao thought for a while, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "Perhaps the grass is green? Yes, it should be like this."
Gu Qingyu was somewhat convinced, "The grass is indeed green."
"And my hair is green." Ji Cao looked down at her hair.
"Speaking of green, Xiaocao's hair and eyes are both green." Gu Qingyu looked around and found that Ji Cao's clothes and shoes were also green, "Xiaocao likes green very much, right?"
Ji Cao nodded, "Yes, green looks vibrant, don't you like it?"
"I like it, but green hair is not very good in the eyes of adults." Gu Qingyu thought for a while and said, "I seem to have heard such a sentence somewhere, it seems to say, "Love is a ray of light, green hair until you panic. "Yes, that's the sentence."
"What does that mean?" Ji Cao asked him.
"This... I don't know, maybe it's too green, so I panicked?" Gu Qingyu didn't know, she stretched out her hand to touch it, and found that there were no vegetables, so she quickly interrupted the topic and asked Ji Cao to clean it up, while herself Go into the kitchen with the basin.
Gu Qingyu played with Ji Cao for most of the day, and Gu's mother came to pick him up at night.
"I'm really bothering you today." Mother Gu handed the bag to Ji Xi, "I remember Xiaocao likes dim sum, right, these are some dim sum I bought on the way, thank you for taking care of Xiao Yu'er. "
"No, Qingyu is very sensible." Ji Xi did not lie, most of the children at Gu Qingyu's age are mischievous, but Gu Qingyu is polite and sensible, and will take the initiative to help with work. Is attractive. If Ji Xi didn't like to cling to Ji Cao, it is estimated that Ji Xi's affection for the other party would be even higher.
"It's just that he is too sensible, but I want him to be more lively." Mother Gu said with emotion, then remembered that it was getting late, and said goodbye quickly, "Then we will go first, if Xiaocao wants to come over as a guest, we will also Very welcome."
"Okay." Ji Cao nodded obediently, and waved her hand, "Goodbye, Auntie, goodbye, Xiaoyuer."
"Goodbye." Mother Gu waved to her before pulling Gu Qingyu away.
"boom-"
The door closed, and the house became quiet again.
"Xiao Xi, let's have some snacks." Ji Cao stared at the bag in Ji Xi's hand enthusiastically, swallowing as if she could see through the snacks inside, "I smell the scent of strawberries, sweet and sour .”
"What if it's not strawberries?" Ji Xi looked at her and put the bag on the coffee table.
"If not, then I'll eat it reluctantly." Ji Cao raised her hand to wipe the corner of her mouth that was not drooling, and said with a smile.
Ji Xi looked up at her: "What if there are strawberries?"
"Then I guessed right, of course I ate it. Is there a problem?" Ji Cao raised her hips confidently, urging her to open the cake box in the bag quickly.
The snacks were packed in a cardboard box, and a cute butterfly shape was tied. Ji Xi quickly unwrapped the bag, and then took off the lid.
"It really is a strawberry cake, and it's a whole one." Ji Cao looked at the strawberries in a circle, swallowed, and fumbled for the knife on the cake with both hands, "Aunt Gu is so kind."
"Don't mess with it, I haven't bought one for you before." Ji Xi glanced at her coldly, then closed the lid.
Ji Cao: "???" Shouldn't the next step be to cut the cake? Why did you put the cake away
"You've already eaten a lot of cakes today, put this in the refrigerator and eat it tomorrow." Ji Xi tied the straps and explained.
"Since it's going to be eaten tomorrow, why do you want to take it apart?" Ji Cao looked at the other party with teary eyes, "Since it's all taken apart, then eat it tonight, so that it will be fresher."
Ji Xi was not fooled, picked up the cake and stood up, and said, "Put it in the refrigerator, it will be fresh tomorrow."
Ji Cao wanted to eat strawberries, so she struggled and said, "But—"
"No but." Ji Xi interrupted her, and went straight to the refrigerator with the cake in his hand, and then put the cake in, before turning back to ask Ji Cao to brush his teeth and wash his face.
"Got it." When Ji Cao passed by, she looked at the closed refrigerator unwillingly, and asked weakly, "Can't you really eat a piece?"
"No." Ji Xi firmly refused, "You've already eaten the cake I bought last night, and you won't be able to digest it if you eat any more."
Ji Cao immediately puffed up her cheeks, kicked the floor with her right foot, and muttered softly, "Xiao Xi is really a cheapskate."
Ji Xi raised his eyebrows, "Huh? You say it again?"
"I'm going to brush my teeth." Ji Cao ran away as soon as she finished speaking.
But if he was really so obedient, Ji Cao wouldn't be Ji Cao anymore.
