1970, A Bit Sweet

He Tiantian treated everyone around her with a grateful heart. However, reaching middle age, she discovered she had been living inside a full-bodied lie.

Returning to the year 1970, He Tianti...

Chapter 1134 Will You Be My Child Bride?

1134

When passing the school, Li Xian got out of the car and waited for the three children at the school gate.

Because He Tiantian and Huo Yingjie are sometimes busy, Li Xian will pick up the children when he is around, and sometimes he will also attend parent-teacher meetings for the children. Therefore, all three children's teachers know Li Xian.

Therefore, Li Xian easily received the child.

Since the car had been driven home, Li Xian took the three children and walked home.

"Xiao San, are you sure you can handle this?" Li Xian wanted to carry Huo Xiao San, since the child was still quite young and it was more than two kilometers to walk home.

"It's okay, I'm pretty good at it," Huo Xiaosan said. "Uncle, I'm exercising right now, you can't hold me back."

The Snake King admitted that he had choked for a moment.

"Alright, do as you please," Li Xian said. "We have a guest at our house today named Xuanxuan. She can't find her parents and is staying with us temporarily."

"Uncle, boy or girl?" This is what Huo Ruimin asked. Her family is all boys, her eldest uncle's family is also boys, and Aunt Xiaoyan's and Aunt Ying's families are all boys. There are no girls. Sometimes she feels lonely.

Girls like dolls, pretty clothes, and delicate little trinkets like hair clips, but boys don't. They just like playing soccer, brandishing weapons, and getting all sweaty!

Huo Ruimin said she disliked it very much.

“It’s a girl, about seven or eight years old,” Li Xian replied. “Ruimin is a good girl. How about she helps us take care of the little sister?”

"Okay, okay." Huo Ruimin nodded. "I promise I'll take good care of the little girl!"

Huo Ruihua tilted his head, looked at his uncle, and didn't say anything.

Huo Xiaosan then asked, "Uncle, is that Sister Xuanxuan pretty?"

How old are you? Why are you so concerned about whether it looks good?

"It's beautiful, just as beautiful as your sister," Li Xian said. Apart from being a little silly and cute, the little turtle was pretty good.

"That's good," Huo Xiaosan said. "If she can't find her parents, she can reluctantly become my child bride."

"Ahem!" Upon hearing this, Li Xian was shocked. "My God, you're just a little kid, what do you know about a child bride? Besides, why would you want a child bride?"

Huo Xiaosan, sticking out his neck, said, "Uncle, don't underestimate me. Of course I know what a child bride is. I was watching TV with Grandma Wang yesterday, and there was a story about child brides on TV. It's so nice to have a wife; you can go out with her on your back, she can cook and do your laundry. But we have a nanny at home, so we don't need to do any of that. I want to take her to school so she can do my homework..."

Uh, Li Xian had some doubts. Was this Huo Yingjie's child?

"Haha, little sister, so you just don't want to do your homework." Huo Ruimin laughed. "Child brides are a product of feudal society. They don't exist in the new society, so don't even think about it. Also, if you ask someone else to do your homework again, I'll tell Mom and she'll stop you from playing soccer."

Upon hearing this, Huo Xiaosan quickly ran to his sister and said sweetly, "My dear big sister, I wasn't just saying that, you can't hurt your own brother!"

Huo Ruihua never participated in his sister and brother's funny antics. Instead, he stood with his hands behind his back, calmly observing the surrounding vehicles, houses, and pedestrians...

Li Xian caught a glimpse of Huo Ruihua out of the corner of his eye and cursed inwardly, "This little brat is Huo Yingjie's son!"

He's full of cunning, but he keeps a low profile. When he grows up, he'll be ruthless and deadly.

Sensing Li Xian looking at him, Huo Ruihua smiled, like a harmless little animal, however…

I'm not going to say anything more. Anyway, it's not his child, so he doesn't care.

Huo Xiaosan was chatting and laughing when he suddenly saw cotton candy for sale by the roadside.

"Uncle, I want to eat cotton candy," Huo Xiaosan said. He liked sweets, even though his teeth often hurt from eating candy.

Li Xian didn't care about the money and was about to buy it when Huo Ruihua said casually, "Have you forgotten how much pain you were in last week that prevented you from eating?"

Huo Xiaosan was taken aback, then said with a bitter face, "Actually...actually, eating a little bit won't hurt..."

"Then eat it. There are so many delicious things at home, why do you insist on eating candy..." Huo Ruihua shook his head and ignored Huo Xiaosan.

“Little brother, you can’t eat that. Let’s go home and have some snacks. After you eat, brush your teeth and your tooth won’t hurt anymore,” Huo Ruimin advised. “Besides, there’s a lot of dust on the roadside… Mom said, you’ve forgotten, last time Dad let us look at the dust under a microscope. There are lots of little bugs on the rotting things. If you eat those little bugs, they’ll crawl into your stomach…”

"Okay, sister, I'm not eating anymore. I suddenly realized I don't want to eat cotton candy anymore." Huo Xiaosan's face showed a scared expression; it was definitely not a good memory.

"Good girl!" Aunt Huo Ruimin thought to herself, "She's a good older sister."

As for Huo Ruihua, he has a rather cold personality. He will remind you if he finds a problem, but if you don't listen, he won't say it a second time.

Even towards her own younger brother, the older sister is like this!

It was half an hour later when Li Xian walked home with his three children.

He Tiantian returned home, gave the little turtle a bath, and changed it into the new clothes and shoes she had bought that day.

Because it had just taken a bath, the little turtle's hair was still wet, naturally curly, and jet black and shiny.

It was already late autumn. He Tiantian took a hairdryer and dried Xiao Xuan Gui's hair, saying, "After you've dried your hair, how about Mommy braids it for you?"

"Uh...okay..." Little Turtle remembered that He Tiantian would braid Huo Ruimin's hair every day, making him look like a little princess.

After blow-drying her hair until it was about 70-80% dry, leaving it loose over her shoulders and slightly messy, He Tiantian picked up a pair of scissors and gave it a quick trim.

He Tiantian usually cuts her children's hair herself, so she quickly finished trimming Xiao Xuan Gui's hair.

"We'll braid your hair when it's dry," He Tiantian said. "By the way, Xuanxuan, are you hungry?"

The little tortoise nodded and said, "I'm hungry. I haven't eaten anything since this morning."

"Huh?" He Tiantian was taken aback. "Then why aren't you eating?"

"I have no money," said the little tortoise. "Without money, I can't eat. Now that I'm human, taking things without paying is stealing."

"Oh dear, it's all my fault," He Tiantian said. "I'll find you a small bag later and put some pocket money in it so you can buy whatever you want to eat. It's the same at home."

"Okay, I understand," said the little tortoise. "Thank you..."

She still couldn't bring herself to call her "Mom".

When Grandma Wang saw He Tiantian bring out the little tortoise, she asked with a smile, "Tiantian, whose daughter is this?"

Because there are few girls, Grandma Wang also prefers girls.

I recommend Qi Qi's new book, "Reborn Sweet Wife: The Strongest Agent," a very good and sweet romance novel.
