The fish was the first to come to the pavilion to ask for food.

But she still remembered what her mother had said, and she stopped chattering as soon as she entered the pavilion. She gave the two elders a not-so-standard greeting, then blinked her cute big eyes and asked Li Changle tentatively, "Mom, can I have some fruit to share with my brother and sister?"

The little girl is almost three years old now. Her articulation has become clearer and she can express her ideas in longer sentences.

Li Changle looked over and saw Li Shixi walking towards the pavilion, obviously following his running sister.

She brought a plate of cherries to Yu'er and took out a pack of wet tissues from the food box, "Go ahead, wipe your hands before eating."

The fish achieved its goal, cheered and ran away, so Li Shixi chased it halfway and then went back.

Li Changle turned around and saw Fang Ruyu looking at him, and said with a smile: "This girl is a little foodie!"

Fang Ruyu followed Yu'er's figure with her eyes, "She and Bao'er and Bei'er can play together."

Li Changle revealed her daughter's past without reservation, "Madam, she just likes good-looking and pretty things. She must be very fond of the twins in your family!"

After hearing this, Fang Ruyu looked at her son and thought that her son was not bad at all.

As if in response to her thoughts, Li Changle's next sentence was: "Last time she saw Master Ling at the school gate, she was like this too. As soon as they met, she wanted to give the candy to the handsome brother."

"...So that's how it is." Fang Ruyu suddenly realized.

She said, her son who never liked sweets, where did the candy come from in the desk drawer of the study?

She discovered it by accident, and after that she opened the drawer several times and found the sugar still there. Two days ago, she went to check again, and it was still there...

She glanced at the woman who was unaware of the situation...

He picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.

Is she pretending not to know, or is she not aware of it?

Maybe I'm overthinking...

After playing for a while, the two boys and their sisters gathered in the pavilion. The little girls had a few peach petals on their heads and were probably having a great time chasing each other, their faces flushed.

After Yu'er Ren Li Shixi wiped her hands, she began to share the food her mother brought with the two little sisters, introducing it to them in a variety of ways, fearing that the little sisters would not appreciate it and did not know how good the food was.

"Sister Baoer, this is a pastry made by Auntie Ma. It has jam in it."

"This is fried potatoes. It's so crispy."

"Sister Belle eats it too. I love to dip the meatballs in red sauce..." The red sauce is ketchup.

He handed a shepherd's purse pancake to Li Shixi: "Brother, eat the pancake..."

When he grabbed the hawthorn hamburger candy, he paused, let go hesitantly, changed to a fruit plate, took a strawberry and held it in front of Li Yiyang, "Brother, you don't eat candy? Then eat fruit!"

Li Yiyang was stunned. It had been such a long time, but she still remembered his words about not eating sweets? ?

Isn’t it too weird?

He thought she had forgotten.

Not to mention him, even Li Changle was speechless.

She embraced the little girl, "Yu'er, do you remember who he is?"

"Brother! A brother who doesn't eat candy! Oh, mother, how can there be a brother who doesn't eat candy?"

Li Changle was suddenly at a loss whether to laugh or cry, as her memory point was on "not eating sugar".

"She probably thinks there are few people in the world who don't eat candy, so she remembered your 'don't eat candy' face?" Li Changle said with a smile.

Li Yiyang's eyes flickered, and he lowered his body to face Yu'er in a moment, "Brother doesn't like sweets, so eating fruit is just right for him."

He took the strawberry from the little girl's hand and stood up, with a smile flashing in his eyes.

Fang Ruyu was surrounded by her twin daughters and was able to spare a glance at him.

I wonder if there will be another fruit in the drawer starting tomorrow...

After eating fruit and snacks, the group went to the temple to burn incense, donate money for incense, pray for amulets, and also pray under the ancient trees in the temple and tie red ropes.

It was after noon that we went out together to have a vegetarian meal.

When going down the mountain, the fish was a little tired.

Li Shixi wanted to sleep with his back to her, but Li Changle refused. He was only eight or nine years old, and going down the mountain required walking up stairs, so he couldn't let him do that. Before they knew it, the brother and sister rolled down the mountain.

She can't do it herself.

When we came here, the mountain was going up and the view was quite good.

Now that they were about to go down the mountain, her fear of heights suddenly emerged. Although the mountain was gentle and she didn't feel dizzy looking down the mountain, her feet would itch.

She handed the fish to Leng Er and said, "You carry her down the mountain and let her sleep in the carriage when we get to the bottom of the mountain."

"No!" Yu'er put her arms around her mother, wrinkled her nose and muttered, "Cold, stinky!"

Leng Er, who had just extended his hand, now had a stern face: "..."

Li Changle suggested letting Leng Yi come again, and the little girl shook her head and complained, "Fierce and stinky!"

Leng Yi: "..."

Li Changle's mouth twitched, and he glanced at Er Leng. How many days have these two warriors not taken a shower? The weather has warmed up.

Seeing that several masters of the Li family were waiting for them, he smiled awkwardly and said:

"This girl wants to sleep after eating. She has to be carried down the mountain. She refuses to let the two guards hold her. I can't hold her anymore." It would take about an hour to hold her. Her two thin arms would break. The girl has gained weight recently and it's too heavy to hold her.

She looked around outside the temple. When she arrived in the morning, there were several bamboo sedan chairs waiting on both sides of the entrance, but now she couldn't find any.

Is it past noon?

"Aunt, I can carry it steadily." Li Shixi was about to take the fish.

"How about we take turns?" Each of us recited a passage, "If we come across an empty sedan chair on the road, we can throw her on it."

Fang Ruyu burst out laughing after hearing this and said, "Let me have a few guards try it out?"

Li Yiyang's eyebrows twitched.

The little girl had her eyelids drooped and was humming in the crook of her mother's shoulder, about to fall asleep.

"How about... let me try?"

If they don't leave now, it will be dark when they get back to the county, and it will take a long time to go down the mountain. Li Changle didn't think much about it, "Then you give it a try. If it doesn't work, Shixi and I will take turns carrying her."

Li Yiyang is more than a head taller than Li Shixi, so he can hold the child steadily.

Yu'er was moved to a different embrace, and was not happy about it. He frowned and said, "Chou Chou, please don't..."

Li Yiyang's back stiffened. He also stinks?

Fortunately, the little girl in his arms, who was like a glutinous rice ball, mumbled something, shrugged her nose, then wrapped her little hands around his neck and fell asleep.

Li Yiyang slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

He shouldn't stink...

Li Changle also breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good..."

I was so scared that I waited at the gate of Huiji Temple for her to wake up before going down the mountain.

The little girl is becoming more and more opinionated, and has many small faults. She thinks people are smelly? She is spoiled.

Fang Ruyu came over with the twins, glanced at her son, and chuckled, "Let's go."

Li Changle put his arm around Li Shixi's shoulders and said earnestly as they walked: "Look, you've spoiled this sister. She's so hypocritical!"

Li Shixi disagreed with her statement, "Aunt, you can't say that about Yu'er, she just likes to be clean."

"Yeah, yes. I don't know who it was, but he jumped into the ditch and almost buried himself." Li Changle snorted.

Li Shixi looked at his aunt speechlessly, wondering if she could help cover it up in front of outsiders. "She fell in accidentally..."

The weather warmed up and the land thawed. The people in the farm were tilling the land. The little girl thought it was fun, so she and Zhuer and Xiaobao went to join in the fun. As a result, the little girl slipped and fell into a ditch as deep as her height, and fell in the dirt.

Fortunately, Leng Er was following just a few meters away and picked the person up almost immediately.

For the next two days, Li Changle carried her to the edge of the field every day. The little girl was so scared that she fell on her lap and cried. Li Changle stopped doing that.

The ditch was dug to store water and drain water. It had just been cleaned and the water had not yet been drained in. If there was water in it, it would not be a matter of just getting some dirt on your body.

Although it was funny, Li Changle really didn't dare to take it lightly.

After learning from her mistakes, the little girl didn't dare to go to the fields again. She stayed beside her mother obediently for several days, feeling aggrieved.

Sun Daxing and Ma came with Xiaobao, and Liu Tiechui and Jiang came with Zhuer, all of them came to kowtow and apologize.

Leng Er was even more cruel. He stripped off his upper body and left him with only a thin layer of clothes. He then asked Leng Yi to hold the whip and whipped him twenty times on the back.

The cracking sound of the whip made Li Changle's teeth ache.

But she couldn't stop it.

Whether it is the Sun and Liu families or Erleng.

These people followed her around in Li County and were her first and most capable helpers.

The child just fell on his butt and had some skin abraded on his palms. In modern times, it is necessary for parents to emphasize verbal education, but it is the nature of children to love playing, and it is not necessary to cause harm to others or even corporal punishment.

Leng showed no mercy when he swung the whip. She covered Yu'er's eyes and dared not let her see, but she didn't cover them in time, so she still saw the first two whips.

The little girl cried so hard that she was out of breath and wanted to go to her uncle Leng to blow some water.

Li Changle had no intention of making an example of them, but their awareness of punishment was unprecedentedly high, and she was helpless.

She pointed at the people kneeling on the ground and said:

“Gu Yuer, they all belong to the Gu family.

Among these people, some will always protect you, some will follow you and serve you in the future, and some will run errands for you when they grow up. Their lives are in your hands."

“Although you are their master and they have to obey your orders, but precisely because of this, everything you do, whether good or bad, will have a profound impact on those around you.

If you are doing well, they will be better off. If you get into trouble and get hurt, they will also get hurt, and may even take the blame for you."

"Now tell me, do you want them to be well, or do you want them all to be whipped like this?"

The little girl cried loudly, "No, no, Yu'er won't dare to do that anymore. Mother, please don't hit little sister Baozhu."

At this point, it’s time to call it a day. The children are scared.

Afterwards, Li Changle took some Yunnan Baiyao and asked Leng Yi to apply it to Leng Er. "He's your revolutionary comrade, and you're willing to use such harsh measures on him!"

The skin was torn and the flesh was exposed.

Zhu'er and Xiaobao were still young, so they just asked Jiang and Ma to talk to them nicely and stop beating and scolding the children.

At that time, Li Shixi was in school and was not present at the scene. He only heard Yu'er's hiccups and pieced together his description after he came back.

At this time, Li Shixi still protected his sister. "Yu'er was scared at that time and cried at night. Auntie, next time, don't do anything in front of her."

"What have I done? This girl has been playing wild recently. If I don't take care of her, she might run away from the farm one day."

"She won't!"

"You are so unprincipled! I can't let you go on like this! Give her whatever she wants, help her with whatever she does! You have to demand more from her..."

"Aunt, she's still young..."

"When the girl is eighteen, you still think she is young. You can't keep doing this."

"Aunt, I will marry Yu'er when she is eighteen, and I will continue to spoil her. I am happy with it."

Li Changle, who was walking down the stairs with numb legs, suddenly felt his scalp go numb and he stumbled and almost rolled down the mountain.

After she had stopped, she asked Li Shixi with trembling lips, "What did you say? What did you say just now?"

Li Shixi was unaware, "What happened to aunt?"

"You said you would marry...marry Yu'er?"

Li Shixi looked behind him and saw Li Yiyang carrying the fish as if nothing had happened and continuing to go down the mountain. He had already walked in front of the aunt and nephew.

For some unknown reason, Li Shixi said loudly: "Aunt, I said...when I grow up, I will marry...mmmm..."

Before he could finish his words, Li Changle slapped his mouth.

Oh my god...

Cousins, please don’t be too scary, okay?

She suddenly remembered Gu Jingyan's previous concerns.

She also said that there would be no such possibility under her nose.

Now, she is overwhelmed...

She waved at Li Yiyang, motioning him to go ahead.

She has to brainwash this nephew who wants to marry her cousin.

Li Yiyang also felt strange. He weighed the little girl who was sleeping soundly in his arms and rushed behind Fang Ruyu.

The aunt and nephew, who were not far away, started talking again.

The mountain breeze was blowing gently, and the words seemed to have wings, blown by the wind and reached the ears of Fang Ruyu and her son.

Li Changle asked Li Shixi, "When did you have this idea? Don't you know that Yu'er is less than three years old? You are still a little kid! Why are you still marrying her?"

Li Shixi covered his twisted ear and said, "Aunt, I have thought about this since...since you recovered from your illness. When I grow up, Yu'er will be my wife, and Aunt will be my mother. We will live together as a family forever and never separate. Let me protect you."

Li Changle felt sad, but he still had to nip his cousin in the bud. If he didn't nip it in the bud now, it would be more difficult to deal with it later when the idea was deeply rooted.

"Auntie has told you that from now on, wherever Auntie is, you will be there."

"It's not necessary to... get married to be a family. As long as you are strong enough, you can protect me and your sister wherever we go."

Li Shixi pursed his lips and said nothing, as if he had decided that this was the way to go in the future.

Li Changle decided to use a blockbuster bomb to blow up this fragile yet strong little heart.
