Monster Tea Party

Chapter 5841 Goldfish Head
"Do not."

The woman shook her head. "You're overthinking it."

"I didn't think so much."

"I just like water basins."

……

The man gave a wry smile.

Is that so...?

He thought he had finally found the most reasonable excuse for the woman's somewhat strange shopping insistence.

.......
Fine.

The man shrugged slightly.

The woman liked the water basin….
I just like water basins.

It was a twist of fate that his idea coincided with the woman's.

What a coincidence...

It's quite amazing.

……

The woman looked around.

The ox's nose is gone.

The woman looked at the basin of water.

Goldfish in a basin of water...

The woman squatted down and counted them one by one...

Because the woman carefully selected each goldfish, and always kept an eye on them to prevent the bull-nosed man from stealing them, she knew each goldfish by heart.

……

"what?"

The man squatted down and picked up several broken fishing nets from the ground.

"How could there be something here..."

The man looked at them. "Three fishing nets?"

Over the past week, the woman's fetal movements have become increasingly noticeable, and her due date is fast approaching. So the man closed his grocery store and temporarily suspended operations.

To avoid the children who come to the store making a ruckus and startling the woman.

It stands to reason...

During this period, there will be no discarded fishing nets near the water basin.

……

For some reason, the man suddenly thought of the missing goldfish.

The man was somewhat surprised.

So many months, almost a year has passed...

He actually remembered...

Is it...

He was unexpected...

Are you still quite bothered by this?
But so much time has passed...

The man shook his head slightly.

……

The woman looked at the fishing net in the man's hand.

He paused, startled.

A guess quickly formed in my mind.

Yes……

A cow's nose.

After she left, I took three fishing nets...

Today's quota has been met.

The woman found it somewhat amusing.

She collapsed right in front of the ox-nose...

That guy was unmoved, which was fine.

They even have the mood to play fishing games...
Should we say the other person is carefree?
Or indifference?

Although the atmosphere between them wasn't exactly pleasant...

The other party's mystery, strangeness, and peculiarity made the woman wary.

Plus, the other person didn't look like a good person at all.

she knows.

Judging people by their appearance is wrong.

However, there is also a saying that one's appearance reflects one's inner state.

No?
……

Moreover, not to mention her, even the Taoist priest's attitude towards her wasn't much better.

Ignore her.

To put it more bluntly, it was emotional abuse against her.

They ignored her words.

……

But also...

how to say?

The woman found it somewhat amusing.

To some extent, she and the Taoist priest disliked each other.

They dislike each other.

They don't get along.

Normally, people like them should keep their distance from each other.

This is her territory.

Those who are far away should naturally be the key.

But the amazing thing is...

Despite his unfriendly demeanor, the Taoist priest would still occasionally come by.

They don't do anything else either.

He just stares blankly at the goldfish.

……

She was surprised several times as well.

Do you like goldfish that much?
Or……

Do you like goldfish that much?
The image of the bull-nose eating a goldfish raw left a deep impression on her.

She feels...

In a short time -
Well, perhaps for quite a long time.

Even the most effeminate person can't shake off this impression in her eyes.

……

Later, she and the other party agreed on the rules...

Each time you come, you can only use three fishing nets to catch goldfish.

Want to fish again...

We'll just have to wait until next time we come.

……

The woman herself didn't know how she had such courage...

And on what basis do we set rules with the Taoist priest?
Sometimes, in the middle of the night, I'd wake up and think about the look the ox-nose gave me that day, and the image of him eating a goldfish raw...

She still felt cold in her limbs. ...

maybe……

Through repeated encounters with the bull-nose hermit, the woman increasingly realized...

Niu Bizi is not someone who gets angry easily.

Although the seemingly disdainful attitude of the "bull-nose" was infuriating.

But this shows that the Taoist priest wouldn't stoop to argue with her...

It still makes people feel at ease.

……

The woman was no longer so afraid or cautious in front of the bull-nose.

They even went so far as to make a bold demand on a cow's nose.

They still acted on their own initiative.

As always, the ox-nose didn't give her any response...

She simply accepted it as a nod, as if it were the truth.

At the time, her self-talk was somewhat of a joke.

I just didn't expect it...

Before she could explain...

She collapsed first.

She's about to give birth.

……

The timing was so good...

……

The woman also had concerns during her recovery in the hospital.

Will the bull-nose guy be angry about her taking matters into her own hands?

I think she's taking advantage of me...

The woman was somewhat anxious and nervous.

She didn't.

She really was...

I just wanted to test the waters.

The moment the Taoist priest's expression changed...

She immediately changed her mind.

It was said to be a joke.

As a result, her child was too anxious.
Even though there are still a few days until my due date as the doctor said.

She lost the chance to explain to the ox-nose.

……

She even thought about it...

Will the bull-nose take advantage of her hospitalization to eat all her goldfish as revenge?
……

The woman silently prayed for her goldfish.

……

The truth is somewhat different.
No.

It was completely unexpected for her.

……

Not only were the goldfish not missing...

The man with the ox-nose actually did as she said!?
……

The woman was genuinely surprised.

The bull's nose...

Although it was completely different from the impression she initially had of the bull-nose her...

But her first impression was really...

Is he really that nice?

so……

Is he honest?

That rascal……

……

"Sissi?"

……

Ok?
The woman looked up.

what?
……

"what are you laughing at?"

The man was somewhat puzzled.

of course.

He was happy because the woman was happy.

He was curious about why the woman was happy.

……

The woman was stunned.

Did she smile?

The woman touched her face.

She smiled and said, "I'm just so glad that the goldfish were fine while we were gone."

……

The man was speechless for a few seconds.

Then he shook his head and sighed.

"You."

"What a goldfish head."

Why do you like goldfish so much?

The man reached out and gently stroked the woman's nose.

"All right."

"Since the goldfish is alright..."

"We go home."

"Perhaps the child has already woken up."

They came to the grocery store while the child was asleep.

The main reason is because of the proximity.

Otherwise, even if the child is asleep, they wouldn't feel comfortable leaving the child alone for too long.

……

"it is good."

The woman nodded.

"Let's go back."

……

I saw a cow's nose again...

It has been a year since then.

……

The woman could hardly believe her eyes...
