Looking at the two children in front of him, Li Zexuan felt a little uncomfortable. Other children at his age were playing wildly with other friends outside, but these two children could only squat at home and play with a group of chickens. How sad.
"Aunt Liu, you go and do your work first. I want to talk to these two children alone for a while."
"Hey, young master, please call me if you need something later." Liu Yue'e responded and took Han Lizheng to sit in the front hall.
…
"Is your name Guoran?" Li Zexuan bent down and smiled as kindly as possible.
Perhaps he sensed Li Zexuan's kindness. At this time, Hu Guoran said with a smile: "Master, you must know my name. Why do you still ask... ah!"
Hey, it seems that this child is not stupid. When he came over before, he didn't forget to hold his sister. Li Zexuan felt that this child was not a fool like Han Lizheng and the others said. Now when he saw Hu Guoran, although he spoke slowly, But his thinking was very clear and organized, and Li Zexuan became more certain of his judgment.
"Sure enough, I heard that you can make chickens be obedient. Can you show it to your brother?"
"Yes...ah!" Hearing Li Zexuan mention the chickens, Hu suddenly became excited and quickly pulled his sister and ran towards the chickens in the east corner of the yard.
Li Zexuan folded his arms with interest and stood aside to watch what tricks the two siblings could play.
I saw Hu Guoran holding up two chubby little hands and making a rapid "coo-coo-coo" sound. The chickens seemed to have heard the order and excitedly surrounded him. He screamed "cluck" next to him.
"Sister...sister, it's...your...turn." Hu Guoran shouted to Hu Jingran.
Hu Guoran smiled lightly, not thinking that this game was childish. She took out a willow leaf from her waist, put it to her mouth, and blew out an incomplete note. The chickens surrounding Hu Guoran turned around again. He came over and ran to Hu Jingran's side.
Li Zexuan looked on in shock. In his previous life, his family had raised chickens, but when his mother usually called the chickens to feed them, the chickens would just come and watch nearby. They would not dare to come over to eat until his mother was far away. How could they be like this now? ah! When these chickens heard the voices of these two siblings, they were not afraid of them at all and surrounded them as if they had been drugged. It was really amazing.
What Li Zexuan didn't expect was that there would be something even more amazing later.
Hu Guoran seemed to be having a little fun at this time. He ran to his sister and stood in front of the chickens. Then he turned to Li Zexuan with a proud smile and said, "Hey...hey, young master, look... quickly!"
Hu Guoran was seen raising his hands flat, squatting half-crouched, jumping up and down, and making a rhythmic "clucking" sound from his mouth. The chickens in front of him seemed to have heard his call and lined up neatly in front of him. What's even more amazing is that these chickens started to beat according to Hu Guoran's rhythm, and they all neatly tilted their necks and turned their heads.
Perhaps because he felt that his brother would be bored playing alone, Hu actually put the willow leaf to his mouth and played a happy and melodious tune in time with Hu Guoran's rhythm.
In the small courtyard, there is a girl playing music standing in the sun, a boy who is walking happily while making strange screams, and chickens on the ground twisting their bodies to the rhythm. This picture is so beautiful that it almost lights up Li Zexuan's eyes. Titanium eyes.
At this moment, Li Zexuan had a strange feeling in his heart. The scene in front of him was like a girl playing music, and then a two-year-old young man was dancing in the square with a group of chickens. Tsk tsk, Li Zexuan said, this is really a long time to see you!
…
"Hey...hey, young master, how...how...how...are you...performing...?" The two children were playing around for a while. Hu Guoran felt tired first, so he stopped and ran to Li Zexuan. Next to him, he asked for credit somewhat proudly.
Normally, only his elder sister was willing to play with him. When other children saw their brother and sister hanging out with a group of chickens, they all regarded them as fools and stayed away in disgust. It was rare to find such a kind young master this time, and he wanted to watch his performance with the chickens. Hu Guoran was very happy, and he had already regarded Li Zexuan as his best friend.
Li Zexuan could see Hu Guoran's urgent need to be recognized and praised by others. He also understood that this child was lonely and lacked recognition. Li Zexuan smiled, rubbed Hu Guoran's head, and said, "Sure enough, he performed very well. He is indeed the smartest kid I have ever seen, young master!"
Hu Jingran on the side breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this. She was afraid that the young master would say something that would hurt her brother like others and make him sad. Her brother has suffered enough wounds in his heart. At this time, hearing that Li Zexuan actually praised her brother, Hu Jingran felt a little grateful to Li Zexuan in his heart.
When Hu Guoran heard Li Zexuan's words, he jumped three feet high and rushed towards the front hall excitedly, cheering as he ran: "Mom, the young master... just... said that I... was not... a fool. He said that I... was... the smartest... in the village." ...Child!" At this moment, he was so excited that he spoke faster than before.
This was the first praise he received from outsiders when he came into the world. Finally, someone stopped treating him as a fool. Of course Hu Guoran was excited. Although he is young, he has been regarded as a fool by the children in the village since he was a child. His self-esteem has been trampled on over and over again. Of course, he is more mature than his peers. He is so eager to be recognized. Today, someone finally recognized him. Hu Guoran felt I have never been so happy as today. He thought to himself: This young master who comes from nowhere is so kind!
Hu Jingran used a bamboo stick to explore the way and came to Li Zexuan. He smiled and said, "Thank you, Master. I haven't seen my brother so happy for a long time!"
Even though her heart felt calm, it was only to outsiders. For this younger brother, she naturally cared and felt deeply for him.
Li Zexuan shook his head habitually, and suddenly realized that the girl seemed invisible, so he quickly said awkwardly: "Haha, what I just said was actually the truth, and I didn't mean to say that to make Guo Ran happy."
Hu unexpectedly didn't believe it: "Really?"
"Of course it's true. In the eyes of others, your siblings' ability to make chickens obey may be worthless, but in my eyes, your ability is worth a thousand dollars." Li Zexuan said with certainty.
"Well, although I can't see the young master's expression, I can actually feel the young master's sincerity. The young master is telling the truth! Thank you, young master!" Hu Jingran's face finally broke into a smile and he said happily.
