After Jian Xin left, Li Yu sat down on the stool, waiting for news from Jian Xin.
Mu Lan said to Li Yu: "I remember you said you were seven years old, right?"
Li Yu said: "Yes."
Mu Lan chuckled and said proudly: "That's right, call me sister."
Li Yu asked in confusion: "Huh? Why?"
Mu Lan replied: "Because I am older than you."
"Why are you older than me?"
"I am ten years old and you are seven. Am I older than you?"
"Is ten bigger than seven?"
"Of course. Your dignified young master from Yinlong Villa is not literate, right?" Mu Lan joked.
Li Yu was indeed not very proficient in counting, but he still refused to be outdone and said, "Of course I know how to count!" He started counting with his fingers, "One, two, four, seven."
Mu Lan looked at the way Li Yu was cracking his fingers and it was really funny. She helped Li Yu crack his fingers and said: "One, two, then three, then four, then five. Take out the other hand."
Li Yu stretched out his other hand, and Mu Lan said: "Hold it." Li Yu clenched his hand into a fist, and then Mu Lan took out one finger and said, "This is six." She spread two fingers and said: "This is seven! Seven! That's how old you are now. As for my age." Mu Lan spread out Li Yu's palms and said, "The two fingers combined are my age. Am I older than you?" !”
Li Yu was unconvinced and counted on his fingers, "One, two, four, no, it's three, four, five, seven."
Mu Lan corrected: "After five, it's six."
Li Yu said impatiently: "Oh! I won't count anymore."
"Then you can call me sister."
Although Li Yu didn't know which one was older, seven or ten, he knew that calling him sister would make him a dwarf, so he didn't want to call her, so he simply didn't say anything, turned his face to the side, and pretended not to hear. .
Seeing this situation, Mu Lan threatened: "If you don't call me sister, I won't let Aunt Xin take you out in a while!"
Upon hearing this, Li Yu immediately surrendered, "No, no, no! It's not enough for me to shout." He shouted "Sister" in a voice as loud as a mosquito.
Mu Lan leaned over and asked, "What did you say?"
"Sister." Li Yu whispered again.
Mu Lan said: "You don't know how to shout? I'll let someone else show you a demonstration. Stone!" Mu Lan shouted to Fang Xiaoshi over there.
Shitou asked in a childlike voice: "What's wrong? Sister."
Mu Lan ordered to her younger brother: "Call me sister, louder!"
"Sister!" Fang Xiaoshi shouted loudly.
Mu Lan looked at Li Yu proudly and said to Fang Xiaoshi, "Be good. My sister will buy you candies in the future."
"Okay!" Fang Xiaoshi responded.
Mu Lan said to Li Yu: "This is the right thing. Come on, call me sister. Call me sister, and I will take you out to play in a while."
Faced with the temptation of being able to go out and play, Li Yu chose to compromise. He thought to himself that if he screamed, he wouldn't lose any meat anyway. He was heartbroken and shouted loudly: "Sister!"
"Hey!" Mu Lan stretched out her hands and pinched Li Yu's face like a winner.
Jian Xin happened to see this scene and said with a smile: "Oh. Why are you calling me sister? I thought you wouldn't accept anyone except your mother."
Li Yu blushed suddenly and said, "I am..."
Mu Lan explained: "It's nothing. I told the young master that since I am older than him, he should call me sister. The young master is reasonable, so he should call me sister."
Jian Xin said happily: "It would be great if he was really so obedient. Yu'er, your mother promised you to come out with her, but you can't run around again this time. Wait a minute, Master Zhao, he's with us .”
Li Yu said: "Then I'll go to the room and call Master Zhao." He ran back to the room. Zhao Shu was changing into plain clothes. Li Yu wanted to pull Zhao Shu and go out quickly, which made Zhao Shu very embarrassed.
Everyone finally went out under Li Yu's urging. There was a small street in front of the inn, and various small merchants and hawkers were selling things. There were parrots that imitated human speech, and candy figures that blew and squeezed. A kettle that can help children pee, and many other new things. Li Yu was like a little bird out of its cage, swimming briskly on the street. Look here and there, look here and there, looking at these new things. After a while, he ran further and further away, and Jian Xin looked at Zhao Shu helplessly. Zhao Shu dodged and then carried Li Yu back like a chicken cub.
Jian Xin said angrily: "If you are like this, I will send you back."
Li Yu nodded with a playful smile and said, "I just won't run around."
Zhao Shu put Li Yu down. Who would have thought that just after landing, when Li Yu was about to run away, Mu Lan grabbed him by the collar. Mu Lan squinted and said: "You, your scars are so healed that you forget about the pain, and you remember to eat and not to fight. Fortunately, we were together last time. Next time, if no one helps you and you get lost again, it will be terrible. No." Mu Lan poked Li Yu's left chest with her other hand and said word by word: "This is a small matter." Every time she said a word, she poked Li Yu's left chest with her hand.
As the saying goes: It takes a hundred days to break your muscles and bones. Although Li Yu is fine, the left side of his chest will be fine if he doesn't move, but if someone pokes him, the pain will still be unbearable. After being poked by Mu Lan so many times, Li Yu screamed in pain, "No, no, no! Stop poking!"
Mu Lan let go of Li Yu, pinched his waist and taught him a lesson: "If you run around again, I'll catch you and poke you a few times. See if you still run away."
This time, Li Yu's weakness was really poked. After being taught such a lesson by Mu Lan, he became much more honest. But the vitality also disappeared, just like a lost little follower, following everyone silently.
Just as a hawker selling candied haws on a stick passed by, Mu Lan said to Jian Xin: "Aunt Xin, I want to eat candied haws on a stick. Can you buy a few for me?"
Jian Xin saw it and nodded repeatedly. After all, which woman can resist the temptation of candied haws? Jianxin counted the number of people and planned to buy a few candied haws. Feng waved her hands repeatedly and rejected Jian Xin's invitation. Zhao Shu also refused to let Jian Xin buy it for him because he didn't like sweets. Jianxin bought four bunches of candied haws, took one bunch for herself, and gave the remaining three bunches to Mu Lan to share with her.
Mu Lan gave her younger brother stones and divided them into bunches. Then she walked up to Li Yu and said, "What's wrong? Are you still angry? Come and eat a candied haws."
Li Yu turned his face to one side and said, "I won't eat it!"
Mu Lan still waved the candied haws in front of Li Yu and said, "You really don't want to eat it?"
Li Yu looked at the candied haws, pursed his lips, and said stubbornly: "I won't eat it."
Mu Lan pretended to be regretful and said, "That's such a pity, I have to eat two skewers." After saying that, Mu Lan picked up a skewer of candied haws, bit one in her mouth, and smacked her lips on purpose. Let Li Yu hear it.
Women can't resist candied haws, and neither can children. Li Yu swallowed and stopped looking at Mu Lan. After a while, Mu Lan finished one bunch of candied haws, picked up another, and said, "I really ate it."
Li Yu was silent, with a slightly sad expression on his face.
Mu Lan continued to whisper in Li Yu's ear, "I really don't want to eat it."
Li Yu turned his head and looked at it, then turned it back, looked again, and turned it back again. After repeating this a few times, Mu Lan handed the candied haws to Li Yu's hand and said, "Okay, eat it, I won't let you I'm just running around because I'm afraid something will happen to you again. If you really want to see and play somewhere, just tell me and I'll take you there. But you're not allowed to run around alone, you know."
Li Yu was very happy when he heard what Mu Lan said, "Yeah! Good!" So, while eating the candied haws in his hand, he said, "You are so kind to me."
Mu Lan raised her eyes, "Of course, I am the elder sister. I have to take care of my younger brother."
"Well, Sister Mu Lan." Li Yu called again. After that, Li Yu took Mu Lan to wander around the streets, looking at all kinds of strange gadgets.
Unknowingly, they arrived at the cloth shop. Jian Xin took Feng and the three of them to choose some pieces of cloth, and then went to the tailor shop to make a piece of clothing for each of Feng, mother and son according to their measurements. After doing all this, she unknowingly There are thousands of red clouds, and the sun is setting on the west mountain. Just when everyone was planning to go back. Mother Feng and her daughter both had expressions of contempt and ferocity on their faces, looking in the same direction.
Following the eyes of Feng and her daughter, a drunken drunkard was rolling around in front of a hotel.
"What? A few days ago, it was 300 yuan per pot, why did it go up to 600 yuan per pot today?"
The shop owner yelled at the drunkard: "Qian Hang, you scoundrel! You've never sold more than 300 coins a jar. Hurry up and get the drink money, or I'll take you to see the official."
"When you see an official, you meet an official. I'm going to sue you for sitting on the ground and raising the price!" Qian Rang picked up the wine jar in his hand, drank all the wine in the jar, threw it to the ground, and smashed it. broken. Then he threw out a dirty little purse and said, "I only have three hundred coins. If you want it, take it. If you don't want it, we'll go see the official."
The shopkeeper was so angry that his face turned purple. He kicked Qian Rang hard several times and said, "Get out of here. I will never sell you wine again!" The shopkeeper, who thought he was unlucky, took the three hundred coins on the ground. He picked it up and walked back to the store angrily.
Qian Rang was kicked several times by the shopkeeper. He stood up and shouted loudly: "I had a lot of money the past few days! If I hadn't been unlucky and lost some money, I would have given you the wine money! Bah! Who cares about you? This bad wine!"
Mother and daughter Feng stood here, watching the Qian Rong staggering towards the crowd. If murder was not illegal at this time, I am afraid that the mother and daughter would immediately pick up a sharp knife and stab Qian Rang's body. However, the mother and daughter can only watch the money go away.
Jian Xin quickly said: "Okay, okay. It's over. I know you feel unhappy in your hearts. But, after all, you must kill to kill. You, mother and daughter, must not be impulsive."
The mother and daughter bit their lips. Mu Lan squeezed out a smile and said, "It's okay, Aunt Xin." Then she said to Feng, "Mom! It's okay, ah."
Feng didn't say anything, just hugged her daughter. Then everyone went back to the inn together.
