Until the two of them came back after eating and buying some things, the snow and the wind hadn't stopped yet.

"It's so cold." Uchiha stood at the entrance and patted himself wildly. He raised his hand to pat the people next to him, and said with some worry, "Your trouser legs seem to be wet. Are your shoes wet? Where are your feet?"

Uchiha Sasuke casually took off his down jacket, shook it, hung it on a shelf nearby, and answered honestly: "It's all wet."

"... Then you have to take a bath or soak your feet. Which one do you choose? If you choose the latter, I have a special cold-repelling medicine pack here."

"The latter." Uchiha Sasuke thought for a while and replied, "Even if I take a shower now, I will definitely still want to take a shower at night. Taking it twice a day is too troublesome." As he said this, he stood in the entrance hall.

He sat down on the floor, untied his boots, and "freed" his feet from them. "Look." He raised his feet and motioned to the people next to him to look at his half-wet gray socks, with a little "scheming"

I thought to myself - look, are you touched by carrying you back after all this? Do you really want to keep me?

"That's right." Uchiha said with some worry, "Take off your socks quickly and put on your home clothes. I'll prepare something for you to soak your feet."

After that, Uchiha took out a clean basin from the utility room, threw it into the medicine bag, poured in boiled hot water, and carried it to the living room. When he arrived, the boy who had already changed into home clothes once again placed

Out of his daily standby state - sitting cross-legged on the sofa playing games.

She walked over with the plate in hand, knelt down and said, "Come, put your feet in. But in order to soak it longer, I specially put in a little hot water, so be careful."

The boy said "Oh" and stretched out his feet.

"Be careful with your trouser legs." Uchiha, who was squatting aside, stretched out his hand to help him straighten his trouser legs naturally.

"...I can do it myself." Although many of his previous performances were somewhat "shameless", when his legs were directly touched by others, Uchiha Sasuke still felt very uncomfortable and subconsciously hid.

Uchiha blinked, thinking that this shy point was very interesting. However, he did not force it, nor was he teasing. Instead, he retracted his hand and stood up in cooperation: "Keep the cold away from the inside out, I'm going to do it.

Let me make you some hot drinks. What would you like to drink? Black tea? Cocoa? Or ginger tea?"

"Black tea is fine." Uchiha Sasuke replied. He didn't like the cocoa because it was too sweet, and he didn't like the ginger tea because it was too strong. Although he actually prefers green tea, compared to the other two, black tea is at least okay for him.

Within the scope of acceptance. Of course, he did not say this theory out loud, and he knew that he would definitely be complained about——

You are so troublesome.

However, life is your own, so there is nothing wrong with sticking to your personal hobbies when conditions permit, right?

Not long after, Uchiha came over with a cup of hot black tea, put him on the small table next to the sofa, and said half-jokingly: "Here, Mr. Sasuke, you need the black tea. What else do I have?"

Can I help you?"

The young man also replied jokingly: "Then stand by and sing a song. It shouldn't be too unpleasant."

"...Sorry, our store does not provide such special services."

"Very good. Your tip is gone. I will complain to your shop owner about you later. Be prepared to lose your job."

"..." What a rude and troublesome guest!

Having said that, Uchiha couldn't help laughing, then sat down next to him and picked up another game console: "Shall I play with you for a while?"

"Watch your words." Uchiha Sasuke reminded.

"Um?"

"You don't 'accompany' me to play, I 'lead' you to play." The young man corrected him word by word. As an excellent gamer, he felt that he still needed to have this kind of self-confidence.

"..." This man is really troublesome. The Uchiha obedient, who was complaining in his heart, replied, "Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, great Lord Sasuke, please take him away."

Sasuke Uchiha curled his lips slightly with satisfaction, and then asked casually while preparing to connect: "Speaking of which, this medicine pack is very useful. Where did you buy it?" Originally, he just wanted to "try it" for these things.

As a result, not long after the soles of his feet came into contact with the hot water, he felt that his entire feet had warmed up. The warmth flowed from his feet to his ankles to his calves and all the way up, making him feel that his whole body was warm and very warm.

It's comfortable.

He remembered that his mother was afraid of the cold in winter and wanted to buy some and mail them back to her.

"...When winter comes, I go to the Chinese medicine store to buy medicinal materials to prepare the ingredients." Uchiha was silent for a moment and replied softly.

"Then you are so good. Where did you learn..." Uchiha Sasuke's words stopped abruptly because the person next to him looked obviously gloomy. He realized that he seemed to have unintentionally poked the opponent's weak point, and he subconsciously said

, "I'm sorry, did it remind you of something bad?" Could it be that you were "ripped off" when buying medicinal materials?

The Uchiha couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Sasuke... I'll give you another piece of life advice - when you find that you accidentally poked someone's sore spot, rather than poking further, it's best to change the subject as if nothing happened.

.”

"This way..." Uchiha Sasuke thought for a moment, then raised his hand to hold the head of the person next to him, making her lean against him.

"?"

"I will also give you a piece of life advice -" the young man said with a naturally elegant voice, "When you feel you need comfort, you can seek help from the people around you."

"..."

"Yo, yo, yo," Uchiha Sasuke imitated the way his mother and brother comforted him when he was a child, and he wildly stroked the head of the person next to him - not to mention, although her hair didn't look smooth enough, it was thick and thick when brushed.

It was soft, like clouds and seaweed, and like... Putting his hand into the wool of a sheep that hadn't been shaved for several years? He made a "puff" sound and was amused by his own thoughts.

"..." Uchiha hesitated to speak. Although he was grateful for the tenderness of the people around him, "That... Sasuke..."

"Um?"

"You haven't washed your hands since you took off your socks just now..."

"...It's okay. I don't have athlete's foot. Even if I do, my head won't be infected with athlete's foot."

"..." Can she beat this kid to death?!

"Um..." Uchiha Sasuke cleared his throat, "First of all, let me say that I don't mean to poke fun at you, but if there is any extra in the medicine pack, can you give me some? I can buy it with money."

"...Money is not necessary, what do you want this for?"

"Mail it to my mother." Uchiha Sasuke answered honestly. "In autumn and winter, her hands and feet are always cold. My father said that my mother was not like this when she was young, but only like this when she is older. I think it may have nothing to do with age.

, maybe it’s because giving birth hurts the body. Women, it’s really hard...” So, although I don’t have the idea of ​​​​getting married now, if I get married one day in the future, it is completely okay for my wife to choose not to have children.

"That's right." Uchiha nodded, "I still have more than twenty packets there, but I don't use them much anyway. You can take twenty packets and mail them back to Aunt Mikoto."

"...Is it really okay to take so much?"

"If I need it, I can match it again." Uchiha Tiezi jokingly hit the boy's arm with his head, "But you have to take responsibility and help me carry my things."

"Okay." Uchiha Sasuke readily agreed, "I can bring you back with me."

"..." That's not necessary. Moreover, how did this guy do it? He can always end the topic with one sentence...

The sudden snowstorm didn't officially stop until the evening.

As the wind and snow calmed down, road traffic gradually returned to normal.

"Normally speaking, your parents and brother should be able to come over tomorrow." Uchiha said while looking out the window and watching real-time traffic information on his mobile phone.

"...Oh." Uchiha Sasuke stared at the TV intently.

"I'm talking to you, what are you looking at?"

The young man still answered intently: "I saw a few unlucky guys who went to a hotel to book a room on Valentine's Day night and were trapped by the snow until now. One of them is a married man. His wife saw that he never came home and thought there was an accident.

He called the police, but ended up being blocked by the police in a love hotel." It was quite boring news, but the topic she was talking about now was even more boring, so he chose this.

"..." What kind of bloody incident is this... She said speechlessly, "Okay, don't worry about these people who rent rooms. Tomorrow... I will go home with you to meet your parents. By the way,

Pick up those medicine bags, it's faster to take them by yourself than by mail." Just after she finished speaking, she suddenly felt that these words were strange...

"Hmm." Uchiha Sasuke nodded subconsciously, and then suddenly reacted, "Huh???" He turned his head suddenly and asked with confusion on his face, "Why did you go to my house?" Although he did run shamelessly.

I did some pranks on her when I came here, but it wasn't enough to be "sued to the parents", right?

"Go and ask them to hand you over to me." Uchiha Oichi showed a kind smile, and thought a little mischievously, if she really put on a formal kimono and ran to Uncle Fugaku's house to sit down and say this, she didn't know this couple

Will they both faint on the spot - My poor little son, what on earth have been done to you in the past two days?!

"???"

"You're kidding." Uchiha waved his hand and continued, "You...didn't you say you want to live here until the exam and ask me for advice while reviewing? For such an important matter, you have to talk to your family in person.

Let’s talk and see if they feel comfortable leaving you to me for a while.” As she spoke, she raised her hand and scratched her cheek, “Let’s agree beforehand that if your parents firmly disagree, I will choose to respect you first.

Their ideas. Of course, you can also try to convince them like last time, and...!!!"

Her words stopped abruptly.

Because the young man actually opened his arms and rushed over to her, hugged her, patted her back happily and said: "That's great! I knew you would agree!"

"..." Uchiha, who felt that he had heard the resonance in his chest, patted the boy's back hard a few times in return, then slid his hand all the way up and touched his nice little fried hair, "Hi

, Hi, by the way, you need to bring some souvenirs when you come to the house. What do your parents like?" The medicine bag does not count, that is his wish.

"Then just bring 'me' with you." The boy thought confidently - the one my father and mother like the most is of course me.

"... Generally speaking, the host who receives a gift will choose to cut it open to serve the guests. Do you want me to eat your head or your hands?"

"...You are such a terrible person."

"So it's not too late for you to regret it now."

"Eat, eat, if you let me stay, I can eat whatever you want."

"..." That's no need, I'll say goodbye.

The author has something to say: Ah Dai:...I don’t eat people, thank you.
