The little sister is a troublemaker

Li Xi calmed down and said, "Thank you, Brother Huo, for taking the trouble to come here so late at night."

Huo Yuanruo waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "Don't be polite. We are all family, it's just..." Huo Yuanruo glanced at the oil-paper bag containing the food and swallowed.

Don't look at him, don't look at him, this guy is so thin that only bones are left, he can't eat so much. But his stomach was not cooperating, and it actually "gurgled" at this time.

Huo Yuanruo covered his stomach with his hands with embarrassment, "Hey... hehe, I guess I have an upset stomach." That's why his stomach was growling, not because he was hungry.

Li Xi was stunned at first, then he pursed his lips and smiled, "Brother Huo, are you hungry?" He then opened the oil paper wrapped around the food, took out two fragrant meat buns and handed them over, "Eat some first to fill your stomach."

Huo Yuanruo quickly waved his hands, "No, no, I'm not hungry." He took two steps back with an uncomfortable look, "Okay, it's getting late, you should go back quickly. I'll come again tomorrow anyway." After saying that, he turned around and disappeared into the darkness.

Li Xi was surprised at Huo Yuanruo's ability, his eyes full of envy, "How amazing." Then he looked at the two bundles in his hands, his hands tightened unconsciously, his eyes full of tenderness.

When he returned, Li Xiben wanted to go back to the house quietly and tell his family about this matter tomorrow. Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the yard, he saw his second uncle looking out the door.

"Where have you been?" Li Xun asked in a stern tone.

Li Xi was instinctively a little scared. In this family, besides his grandfather, the person he was most afraid of was his second uncle.

Since they came to Xiangyun City, their life has been miserable, but their grandfather still let him study. If there is no paper and pen, they use a sandbox, and Li Xun is responsible for teaching him. There is no other way, because Li Xi is the only grandson. So every time he sees the serious face of his second uncle, he is a little nervous, wondering if he has done something wrong and disappointed his second uncle.

“No…I didn’t go anywhere.”

Li Xun's sharp eyes swept over the bag he was carrying, and he raised his chin slightly, motioning him to explain.

Li Xi then remembered the important matter and said to Li Xun with some excitement, "Second Uncle, this is from my sister."

"Lan'er?"

"Yes, it's Brother Huo who came with my sister. He just brought it here. He said he will come again tomorrow." Then he handed over the two bundles. "My sister said that we are in a special situation now. She is afraid of too many people and too many eyes, so she didn't give much. But she told us not to worry. She will continue to send it."

Li Xun took the two bundles without opening them. "Go to your grandfather's room and talk."

"Grandfather?" Li Xi glanced at the room in the middle. "Grandfather is still awake?"

Li Xun didn't say anything. He walked to the door and knocked twice. "Dad."

"Come in." A hoarse voice sounded, indicating that the person really did not rest.

Li Xi entered the room and wanted to light a lamp, but was stopped by Li Xun. He walked to the other side and opened a window. The faint moonlight shone into the room through the window, and he could barely see people. Then he walked to the bed, carefully helped Li Cong up and leaned against the edge of the bed, and carefully put two old clothes behind his back.

"It's so late, why haven't you slept yet? You have to go to work tomorrow." Although Li Cong's tone was not harsh, there was still a hint of blame. There was nothing he could do. The child was already seventeen years old, and his frail body made him really worried.

Li Xi looked at Li Xun for help. Li Xun calmly brought a chair and sat in front of the bed. He placed two bundles on Li Cong's bed and said, "Dad, this is what Lan'er sent."

Li Cong's eyes lit up. Today, his second son came back and told him about the conversation between his granddaughter and him. Li Cong was surprised that the child was still alive and well. On the other hand, he was also worried that the Li family's affairs would implicate the child.

Li Cong did not speak, but just raised his eyelids slightly. Li Xun then opened the bundle in front of his old father. The things were neatly arranged, including several men's clothes. Although they were new, they were all made of plain cloth and were very low-key.

There were still some food. Li Cong reached out and touched it. It was still warm. He smiled lovingly. The rest were some medicinal herbs and pills. These were the most expensive. Each item had its efficacy and usage written on it.

Li Cong picked up a porcelain bottle and looked at it. He nodded with satisfaction at the beautiful handwriting on it. Then he took out a folded piece of paper on the medicinal material. When he opened it, he saw a few lines of words written in a flamboyant style. This was a prescription.

He carefully compared the two handwritings, and his eyes brightened. After folding the prescription, he stroked his beard with a somewhat moved expression. At such a young age, he has already mastered good handwriting. This child must have had a good life in recent years.

Seeing her father's curious expression, Li Xun picked up the prescription and took a look. She was puzzled at first, then she picked up a few medicine bottles and looked at them carefully. Then she was full of pride and said, "You are worthy of being a girl from the Li family."

Li Xi was very curious. He didn't know what his grandfather and second uncle were talking about, so he moved closer to take a look. Hmm, good handwriting, worthy of his sister. He couldn't see anything else.

Li Xun tapped his head lightly and said, "You should practice calligraphy for an extra hour every day. Your sister, who is the same age as you, is much better at calligraphy than you."

Li Xi was a little embarrassed, but he thought it was natural. "My sister has been smart since she was young. She learns everything quickly. I can't compare to her."

Li Cong smiled and shook his head. "Others know the principle that the early bird catches the worm, but you just gave in directly?"

Li Xi felt a little ashamed, but still said confidently, "That's my sister. Isn't it natural for her to be better than me?"

Li Xun also smiled and took out a new set of clothes, "Dad, can I help you change?"

Li Cong waved his hand. "I'm not going out, so I won't be cold or hot, so I don't need it. I see there are four sets of clothes here, which should be prepared by Lan'er for you. You can divide them up."

"Xi'er, don't do it. Xi'er is young and doesn't need new clothes. Give them to grandfather. Brother Huo said that he will come to give him something tomorrow."

Li Cong nodded comfortingly, "Xi'er is thoughtful." Then he looked at Li Xun, "You should explain everything to your eldest brother tomorrow. You can't hide it from your eldest sister-in-law. Let him talk to her properly and don't provoke her anymore."

I remember the first two years when my eldest daughter-in-law came. She was crazy and didn't recognize anyone. Although she has gotten much better in recent years, she still gets confused sometimes.

"I know, Dad. I think my sister-in-law is much better now. Besides, this is a happy event. Maybe if she is happy, her illness will be cured."

Li Xi's eyes were a little sad. Mother missed her sister too much these years, otherwise she wouldn't have... Then his eyes lit up. Oh, my sister knows medicine, maybe she can help mother and grandfather. Grandfather couldn't get out of bed in the past two years, and he even looked much older. When Brother Huo comes tomorrow, he must talk to Brother Huo about this.

Li Cong rubbed his brows and said, "Okay, go out. You still have to go to work tomorrow."

"Yes, Dad, I'm going out now."

"Yes, Grandfather, Tin is out."
