Siheyuan: Banggeng and I are classmates

'Godson'?

Isn't the god-grandson of the deaf old lady Sha Zhu? For the sake of this eldest grandson, the deaf old lady even plotted against the married Lou Xiao'e, instigating Lou Xiao'e and Sha Zhu to get together, forcibly continuing the incense for the He family.

It can be said that it was not a loss for Sha Zhu to recognize the deaf old lady as his grandmother. It was even quite cost-effective!

But Li Muhua was not a fool, so when he heard that the deaf old lady wanted to adopt him as her grandson, he immediately disagreed. But it was not easy for him to refute directly, so he rolled his eyes and started to change the subject.

"Old lady, aren't you Grandma Shazhu? I don't want to be your grandson, or people will call me Shahua! I don't want people to call me Shahua."

Hearing Li Muhua's seemingly innocent words, the neighbors who were watching the fun couldn't help laughing, and the deaf old lady's face turned redder.

No! It's none of He Yuzhu's business to be called Shazhu. She's not a stupid old lady. Why is Li Muhua, this little brat, so irritating? He didn't seem to be like this before!

"Daughter-in-law of the Li family, how can you say that as a mother, I am the ancestor of our courtyard. I like your Mu Hua and want to adopt him as my grandson. It is a blessing for your Mu Hua."

The deaf old lady really didn't want to continue talking to Li Muhua, so she directly threw the question to Xu Yan.

Xu Yan gave a dry laugh. Naturally, she didn't want to have anything to do with the deaf old lady.

Even if there are no parents-in-law at home, she doesn't want to invite one back.

"Old lady, are you joking with Muhua again?"

"Everyone in our compound knows that Master He is your godson. If you acknowledge my Mu Hua, then the order of seniority in our compound will be messed up!"

Naturally, Xu Yan couldn't speak as freely as Li Muhua, so she had to bring up the issue of seniority in an attempt to dissuade the deaf old lady from her thoughts. However, the deaf old lady just smiled when she heard it.

It looks like there is hope!

"I was mistaken, old lady. It is indeed inappropriate to recognize Mu Hua as your godson. It is Li's daughter-in-law who is more thoughtful."

The deaf old lady smiled and nodded as she spoke, as if she agreed with Xu Yan's opinion.

But just when Xu Yan and Li Muhua were relieved, the deaf old lady suggested, "I think it would be better to have a great-grandson, so that the order of generations in our courtyard will not be messed up."

Xu Yan felt a headache after hearing this. No, she had already said it so clearly. The Li family didn't want to have her as an elder, but she didn't understand. Did they force her to speak frankly and refuse directly in front of everyone to save her face, right?

Just when Xu Yan gritted her teeth and wanted to confront the deaf old lady, Li Muhua started to rub the golden beads and cried, "Mom, I don't want to recognize the old lady as my grandmother. I don't want to be called silly Hua or little deaf!"

"Don't be a brother to Shazhu. I already have two older brothers. Then the three of us will be Shahuas, Big Shahua, Middle Shahua, Little Shahua..."

As he spoke, Li Muhua sat down on the ground, imitating the way Jia Zhang threw a tantrum in his memory, rolling left and right and slapping the ground.

Jia Zhang, who was originally squeezed in the front of the crowd, was startled when she saw this. Then she lowered her head and glanced at the neighbors around her. Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, she quickly retreated behind the crowd.

The deaf old lady was so angry when she saw this scene that she clenched the cane in her hand tightly. She was really afraid that she would not be able to hold back her anger and would hit him.

Were he and Zhuzi really so unpopular with Li Muhua? Why did this damned little bastard keep calling Zhuzi a fool and a deaf person?

Xu Yan saw that the situation had become a mess because of Li Muhua, and hurriedly started to pull up Li Muhua who was still rolling around.

"My son, get up and go home. The old lady is joking with you. You are not so lucky!"

Li Muhua then wiped away her tears and asked in disbelief, "Really?"

Then, without waiting for Xu Yan's answer, he asked the deaf old lady anxiously:

"Old lady, is what my mother said true? You don't want to acknowledge me as your grandson anymore?"

What else could the deaf old lady say when watching this scene? She was afraid that if she said another word about her grandson, the little bastard Li Muhua would start throwing a tantrum on the ground again.

"Humph!"

"Your mother is right. You are not so lucky! I misjudged you, old lady."

The deaf old lady snorted coldly, said this and turned to walk into the house.

She couldn't stay in this courtyard for a moment, it was so embarrassing! How could one adopt a godparent like this?

Li Muhua was so happy when he saw the deaf old lady's back. He jumped up and clapped his hands with a happy and excited look on his face, saying, "Great! I don't have to be a little silly Hua anymore, and I don't have to be called a little deaf person by others anymore."

"Mom, when my brother comes back, you must talk to them and ask them to thank me and take me to Wangfujing Street on the weekend and buy me snacks and candies from Xuanjinglou!"

The deaf old lady turned around and staggered while holding onto the door frame. She was almost choked to death by Li Muhua's long wish list. How much does this damn brat fear being her grandson?

Li Muhua looked at the deaf old lady who could not even stand steadily, and the smile on her face deepened.

"Okay, okay, I'll tell them when Aihua and Qinghua come back tonight and ask them to take you to Wangfujing Street in a few days."

Xu Yan nodded and agreed, then took Li Muhua's hand.

"Did it hurt just now? Come on, mom will take you home to apply medicine."

Li Muhua nodded and rubbed her butt with her other hand.

"It hurts!"

When Xu Yan heard what Li Muhua said, she ignored the neighbors who were watching the fun and directly took Li Muhua to the front yard, leaving only the neighbors who were watching the fun in the backyard.

The crowd gradually dispersed. Lou Xiao'e, who had just been watching the excitement outside the Xu family's door, walked towards the back room where the deaf old lady lived after seeing the crowd disappear...

On this side, Li Muhua was led by Xu Yan all the way to the front yard. Only after they returned to Li's house did Xu Yan let go of Li Muhua's hand and left the door ajar.

"Little one, are you okay? Let mom see if you need to apply medicine."

As Xu Yan spoke, she was about to pull down Li Muhua's pants to see if he was hurt. Although she knew how hard she hit him, seeing Li Muhua in so much pain just now, Xu Yan was a little afraid that it was because she hit him too hard.

"It's okay, I'm fine!" Li Muhua quickly broke free from Xu Yan's hand. Afraid that Xu Yan would not believe him, he jumped onto the bed and sat down hard twice.

"How can I be so easily broken by just a few hits from you?"

Xu Yan was stunned by Li Muhua's action and asked in confusion: "Why were you howling like a pig being slaughtered just now?"

When Li Muhua heard Xu Yan say that her howling sounded like a pig being slaughtered, she was also very angry and said, "Is there any mother who would say this to her son like you? It's fine if you don't want to beat him, but you even said beating me is like slaughtering a pig. How cool!"

After complaining about her mother, Li Muhua explained: "You hit me so hard at that time, if I didn't cry, wouldn't I be a fool?"

Li Muhua was a little proud when he said this, and then he explained: "Besides, there are so many annoying people watching outside, I have to give you some face, right?"

Xu Yan finally felt relieved and patted Li Muhua's head with resentment. "You are so smart. I didn't hit you this time, but you have to remember what I told you."

"If you go to the waterside to play next time, or go to the backyard and provoke the old lady to talk nonsense, do you think mom will let you--"

Before Xu Yan finished her lecture, Li Muhua interrupted impatiently and said, "I know, I know. Next time I go to Beihai and make the old lady angry again, you can ask Dad to send me to Shanxi to dig coal, okay?"
