"Mom, you came back just in time. I'll just call him wherever my brother is. There are still two bowls of noodles in the kitchen for you and your brother."

Seeing that her daughter had already prepared lunch, Mrs. Zhou was all smiles. It seemed that her daughter had really grown up.

"Your brother went to deliver tools to your Aunt Yang. He should be back now. I don't know where this brat went." Mrs. Zhou looked at the door.

Just as he was talking, the door opened and his brother walked in from the outside with a hoe on his shoulder. Li Yuezhu saw his brother coming in and quickly took the hoe from his shoulder and wiped his sweat with a towel.

"Brother, you have worked really hard. Look, these clothes are wet."

Li Yuelan smiled and took the towel from Li Yuezhu's hand: "I just washed my face by the Xingfu River, and my clothes got wet too."

Li Yuelan had many water stains on his body, and the harsh sun outside made his face turn red. Xiao An quickly poured a glass of water for his brother and handed it to him obediently.

Li Yuelan drank the water in the cup before she had time to say hello to Li Liangpeng.

"How long have you been here? I thought you would come in the afternoon, so I rushed over from the fields in a hurry." After Li Yuelan finished speaking, he wiped the sweat on his face with a towel.

"I came here very early in the morning, played with my brothers and sisters all morning, and even watched a big show."

"Oh, what's the big show?" Li Yuelan put down the towel and took the bowl of noodles handed over by her sister. She looked at the noodles with uneven thickness and some pickles on top. It looked like they were made by her sister.

"I have occasionally heard you say before that there is a shrew in our village, and I finally saw it today." At this point, Li Liangpeng frowned: "Are you just going to let this shrew do evil in the village?"

Li Yuelan picked up the bowl, picked up the noodles and started eating.

"Otherwise, what can I do? Can you still talk to him about it?"

Li Liangpeng also sighed, thinking about it, how could such a morally corrupt, arrogant and unreasonable person be reasonable?

"These pickles are quite delicious. Did my mother pick them?" Li Yuelan added another mouthful of pickles to her mouth. They were crispy and especially delicious.

"How can I have such a skill? Your sister may have gotten it from somewhere!" Ms. Zhou was also eating happily while holding a bowl.

Li Yuezhu blushed when she heard her brother asking about the origin of the pickled mustard. Through the fine threads, Li Yuezhu was sure that this brother was not so easy to fool. She turned and walked to the back room, took the basket of snacks, and put it on the table: "Brother, when will you go back?"

?”

Li Yuelan glanced at Li Liangpeng: "Let's go this evening. There will be a test tomorrow, and I happen to be with Liangpeng."

"Yes, we can discuss it together in the evening. Zhu'er, you don't know how powerful your brother is in our college." When Li Liangpeng mentioned this, his eyes lit up.

"In the past, Yue Lan's academic performance in the academy was always in the middle or upper reaches. It was a stage where he was not as good as those above, but more than enough. But you don't know that in the last test, he actually won the first place in one fell swoop, causing a huge upset."

Li Liangpeng's tone sounded a little proud.

"I thought I didn't know how to explain it to Yue Lan before. It turns out that he has been hiding his clumsiness. Now it's summer, and autumn is coming. This year's provincial examination will be interesting."

Li Yuelan saw Li Liangpeng saying such an exaggerated statement, and he shook his head: "How can I hide my clumsiness? I said it was just good luck this time. Maybe next time my grades will fall to the bottom."

"How is it possible? Confucius likes you so much. He has been praising you for your intelligence since you first entered the academy. Although your grades were not good in the early stage, Confucius taught you sincerely. You haven't seen that Li

Every time a talented person sees you and Confucius together, it's like eating a fly."

"Then who is Li Yingcai? You still don't understand. Although he is talented and talented, he is narrow-minded and cannot tolerate others."

"Brother Yuelan is right to say that. Confucius praised Maocai in public, and he led his men to beat him up the next day. A tree that is as beautiful as the forest wind will destroy it, so it is better to keep a low profile."

Li Yuezhu listened to what her brother and Li Liangpeng said to each other, and got a general understanding of their situation in the academy. She felt that although this brother was a warm-hearted man, he was also quite shrewd.

As far as she knew, her brother was only twelve years old this year and had only entered Shigu College for less than four years. He passed the children's examination the year before last. Candidates were called children regardless of their age. Most of the people in the same batch with him were fifteen years old.

At the age of six, there are very few people who pass the child examination.

And according to what Li Liangpeng said just now, my brother still retains his strength and leeway in the academy, and he must be guarding against that villain named Li Yingcai.

At such a young age, her brother was only two years older than she was now, so he could tolerate such ambitions and follow his mother to work in the fields, just like an adult.

Think about it, in modern times, when technology is so advanced, what a 12-year-old child is doing is just playing mobile phones and playing games, while Li Yuelan is already half an adult and can take up half the world.

"Since the two brothers are going to leave today, let's take this bag of snacks. Xiao An won't be able to eat it if he stays at home. The brothers are also growing up, so take it to the academy to satisfy their cravings." After Li Yuezhu said that, he took out the bag of snacks.

Wrap the pastry and push it to my brother.

Li Yuelan rubbed her head: "Zhu'er has grown up, knows how to cook, and knows how to love others. My brother doesn't like these sweets, so leave them to Zhu'er and Xiao An."

Li Yuezhu listened to his brother's words and shook his head firmly: "Xiao An can't eat so much. If he eats too much, his tooth will hurt. It's better for him to take it."

Li Liangpeng watched Zhu'er push the dim sum firmly to Li Yuelan, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Since this is my sister's wish, just take it."

Since he met Li Yuelan, he had never seen Li Yuelan eat well, although he knew that Li Yuelan's family conditions were not good, with only one mother and a pair of young brothers and sisters.

Li Yuelan looked at the ten-year-old girl in front of her, wearing a green shirt, smiling like a flower, and holding a basket of snacks in her hand.

Li Yuelan's nose felt a little sore, and he vowed to let his sister and brother live a good life.

Taking the package of snacks handed over by Li Yuezhu, Li Yuelan felt that it weighed a thousand kilograms.

"Brother, don't worry, there is still a bag at home for Xiao An to eat." Li Yuezhu seemed to have noticed something.

Li Liangpeng looked at his brother and Gong's family with great nostalgia. Their family used to be like this. Ever since his brother was admitted to Jinshi, his sister-in-law seemed to have changed.

"Mom, I will ask for leave again when the wheat is harvested." Li Yuelan stood at the door and said to his mother, carrying the baggage his mother had prepared for him and the snacks his sister had given him.

There was no strong laborer in the family, and all the work in the fields depended on his mother alone. He was particularly busy when harvesting wheat, and his younger brothers and sisters were still young, so he had to ask for leave to come back and help.

"Lan'er must put her studies first. The provincial examination will be held this fall. She must not delay her studies."

After seeing my brother off, there was another quarrel in the front yard, and you could hear the old lady's shrill voice from afar.

When Mrs. Zhou came back, she didn't know that the old lady had actually gone to Mr. Wang's place to make trouble. When she heard the commotion, she wanted to go out to the front yard to have a look.

"Mother." Seeing that Mrs. Zhou was about to go out, Li Yuezhu called her to stop her. "Mother, you haven't called me nvhong for a long time. Look, I can't even hold a needle. Please teach me again."
