This is the only difference between the two wood carvings.
A wooden sculpture shows Xiao Xiao wearing a bracelet on his left wrist.
A wooden carving shows Xiao Xiao's left hand wrapped around Ah Bai.
…
Viewed individually, both wood carvings are exquisitely crafted.
But putting the two wood carvings together, the progress of the new wood carvings is obvious.
Ever since the old lady saw the wood carving, the smile and admiration on her face never left her face.
"very nice."
The old lady kept mumbling.
"This level..."
"so amazing……"
"...It's like there is something in the eyes..."
The old lady stared into the eyes of the wooden sculpture.
I really feel like I'm being watched.
Xiaoxiao, Ahjiu, and Ahbai were all looking at him.
Perhaps this scene was too familiar, as well as the white plum tree and the stone table and bench under the white plum tree. In a daze, the wood carvings in front of the old lady were stained with color, and the wind blew by.
The white plum blossoms flutter.
The branches lightly touched and made a tiny rustling sound.
A piece of white plum petal fell, landing lightly on the stone table.
A little bit of sunlight filters down from above.
Ah Jiu and Ah Bai both seemed to be glowing -
…
"grandmother."
…
The old lady turned her head suddenly.
Xiaoxiao hugged Ah Jiu and looked at her.
The eyebrows are slightly curved.
There is a smile on the corner of the mouth.
It's just like……
She lowered her eyes and looked at the wood carving in her hand.
I couldn't help but take a breath of sigh.
so similar.
"Old wood is really amazing..."
…
Xiao Xiao blinked.
"Um."
"Grandpa Mu is very powerful."
From grandma's attitude, you can see how much Grandpa Mu's skills have improved.
Grandma's reaction last time was not as exaggerated as it is now.
In a short period of time, I have said Grandpa Mu’s powerful words over and over again several times.
…
"so similar."
The old lady sighed.
Just because the carving was a scene she was very familiar with, it was inevitable that her heart was racing and she could not calm down.
…
"This is your Grandpa Mu's wish."
The old lady returned the two wood carvings to Xiao Xiao, "You have to keep them carefully."
"If you hadn't helped that kid Xiaosong, I don't think Lao Mu would be willing to give this wood carving away."
The old lady grinned.
Anyone else would want to keep such a high-level work in their own collection.
"Last time I saw that Lao Mu was reluctant to let go."
"What's more, this time..."
"I think he didn't deliver it in person because he was afraid he would regret it along the way."
…
Xiao Xiao laughed.
"Grandpa Mu will carve better works."
…
"Um."
The old lady nodded.
"After seeing these two wood carvings, I believe it."
"Your Grandpa Mu is obviously back because the son you have been thinking about for a long time is in good condition."
"I said before that my level is just like this..."
The old lady shook her head.
"Your Grandpa Mu still has a lot of room for improvement."
"I'm waiting to see the day when he truly becomes a master of wood carving."
…
"Then these two wood carvings of yours will be valuable."
The old lady smiled.
"yes."
Xiao Xiao also smiled and narrowed his eyes.
"I have to keep these two wood carvings well."
…
"Haha~"
Grandfather and grandson looked at each other and smiled.
…
Xiao Xiao walked into the courtyard.
"Plum Girl."
he called softly.
…
The breeze picks up.
