Chapter 27

After a good nap, Li Yuezhu felt much better. She drank a bowl of chicken soup, changed her clothes and got out of bed.

"Brother, you don't know how brave my sister was back then. She hid my brother Xiaoyuan and me under a rock to escape those two bad uncles."

"How is your sister's health? Were you injured at that time?"

"No……"

Li Yuezhu told Xiao An and Xiao Yuan in the car not to mention the wolf at the foot of the mountain, but now they don't know that Li Yuezhu is injured.

"Brother, why are you back today?" Li Yuezhu put on his clothes and walked out.

"Zhu'er is so sleepy. Aren't you always looking forward to your brother's return? It's the end of the month, so of course your brother has gone home." The sun had already set, and Mrs. Zhou took out the money she had just saved.

A few eggs, a simple scrambled egg, and the leftover chicken soup from lunch, this should be the best meal I have had in the past six months.

"Zhu'er quickly washed her hands and face and got ready to eat." Li Yuelan looked at Li Yuezhu and saw that her face was rosy and her body was normal. It seemed that Xiao An was right, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

When Mrs. Zhou saw several children sitting around her, she also had a happy smile on her face. She didn't ask for anything but that her three children would grow up safely and healthily.

At the dinner table, Li Yuelan took out a few items from his arms. He first took a wooden hairpin and handed it to Mrs. Zhou. Mom, your birthday will be in a few days. Lan'er saw that you didn't have a hairpin, so she took it out.

Time has made one for you.

"You kid, you go to college to study. Don't do these messy things in the future to delay your studies." Although Mrs. Zhou said this, she still had a smile on her lips and happily took the hairpin handed over by her son.

, I looked left and right, and I was extremely satisfied.

This hairpin was not exquisitely made, the style was extremely simple, and the surface of the wood was slightly rough. Mrs. Zhou stroked the wooden hairpin and was extremely satisfied. It was carved by her son himself.

"Xiao An, brother also brought you a gift. Xiao An, guess what brother brought?"

"It's osmanthus candy. It's the osmanthus candy that my brother gave to Xiao An before, right?"

Li Yuelan smiled and shook her head, "Xiao An just knows how to eat. That's not right. Think again."

Xiao An's round eyes rolled: "Is it the clay figurine that my brother gave to Xiao An last time?"

"That's not right either."

Li Yuelan rubbed Xiao An's head, ruffling his originally neat hair into a mess.

"What is that? Xiao An can't guess it."

Li Yuelan took out an item from his bag. Li Yuezhu took a closer look and saw that it was a slingshot. Xiao An originally had a slingshot. Li Yuezhu used it yesterday, but the rubber band of this slingshot had lost its elasticity and was still knotted.

You can tell at a glance that after using it for a long time, the rubber band can no longer withstand the force and breaks.

"Yeah, brother, that's great!" Xiao An held the slingshot and couldn't put it down. This was a very delicate slingshot, unlike Xiao An's previous one which was made of tree branches. This one should have been specially made, and there were also carvings on the handle.

There are patterns.

"Brother Lan is so attentive. He knew that Xiao An needed a slingshot, so he bought him one."

Li Yuezhu stared at the slingshot for a few seconds before picking up the chopsticks to pick up the food.

Li Yuelan looked down and smiled and said:

"Xiao Zhu'er still likes to be jealous of his brother. Here is your gift. Come and see if you like it."

What Li Yuelan handed over was a small red cloth bag with no decoration at all. When Li Yuezhu took it in his hand, it felt like a trivial thing.

"Brother, what's in this bag?" Li Yuezhu didn't rush to open it and turned to ask Li Yuelan.

"Nature is what Zhu'er longs for most." Li Yuelan smiled mysteriously, raised his eyebrows, and licked his lips at the bag. "Why don't you open it and take a look?"

Li Yuezhu looked at his brother's gentle smile. A family of four was sitting here. Everyone was beaming. She wondered if he had prepared a gift for himself.

Li Yuezhu looked up at his brother who was snickering, and carefully opened the bag.

"Hey, it turned out to be a dragonfly tassel hairpin." Li Yuezhu was overjoyed: "Why did my brother think about buying this gift?"

Li Yuelan touched Li Yuezhu's hair: "Zhu'er has grown up and is already a ten-year-old girl. Now she has the ability to protect her younger brother. Naturally, she needs this beautiful hairpin."

Li Yuezhu couldn't put it down holding this hairpin. She had seen anything more beautiful than this hairpin, and she had never met anyone who was more warm-hearted than giving her a hairpin.

Li Yuezhu put on this hairpin happily. The tassels of the hairpin hung down to her ears, and the purple flowers made her even more petite and cute.

"Brother, you didn't make this thing, did you? It must be very expensive to buy it. It's neither the New Year nor the festival, so why give it a gift?"

"Giving my sister a hairpin is to thank my sister for the pieces of cake she gave to my brother."

Li Yuezhu felt like he was confused. What kind of cake was it? Did she give it to him before she came? Seeing his brother's smiling eyes again, he suddenly realized that the compressed biscuits he took away when he came back last time.

"Brother, do you like those biscuits very much? If brother likes my sister, I will prepare some for you."

Li Yuelan shook his head mysteriously, "Your biscuits saved the lives of my brother and my good friend. My good friend will come over tomorrow to thank me. If he comes empty-handed, Zhu'er can kick him out."

When Li Yuezhu heard what his brother said, he became even more curious. Could it be that not only was there something going on at home, but his brother also encountered difficulties outside?

Zhou came out of the kitchen and saw the slingshot Xiao An was playing with and the tassel hairpin Zhuer was wearing.

"Lan'er, you just bought a hairpin for Zhu'er. Why did you buy a slingshot for Xiao An? He doesn't lack these things, so why spend more money? If you are still short of money, mother will give it to you when she goes in.

Take a few coins."

Mrs. Zhou was wiping her hands on her apron while going into the house to get some money.

"Mom, no need, Lan'er is not short of money, she still has some."

Li Yuelan persuaded her mother after much persuasion. He really still had some money on him.

Early the next morning, Li Yuezhu picked up the dragonfly tassel hairpin she placed gently in the box from the table beside the bed. There was no mirror at home, so Li Yuezhu had to go to the basin and look at her reflection in the water.

After inserting the hairpin, my brother had already gone to the ground with his mother, and now it was just dawn, and Xiao An was lying on the bed with his arms stretched out, sleeping.

His mother left rice soup for him and Xiao An on the table. The rice soup consisted of pickles, and Li Yuezhu ate it with gusto.

"Is there anyone at home? I'm coming in!"

Just as Li Yuezhu finished her last sip of soup, she heard the door in the courtyard ringing. Through the closed door, she saw a young man with a cute appearance and clear eyes wearing a white gown walking in.

Li Yuezhu hurriedly greeted him: "Hello, who are you looking for?"

"Hey, it turns out to be Zhu'er. We haven't seen you for a long time, and you don't remember Brother Peng anymore."
