Many question marks seemed to appear on Li Ju's little head.

However, after hearing what Li Xu said, Li Ju still turned her head and looked at the yard.

Then he said with some doubt, "Brother, there's nothing wrong in the yard. It's just like usual."

After hearing this, Li Xu looked at the yard again and scratched his head, "Could it be that I was wrong?"

Then I saw Li Ju's affirmative look.

Li Xu thought that the child must be telling the truth.

Then he started playing with Li Ju.

Until Hu Guilan came out of the kitchen.

With a warm smile on his face, he said, "Xiao Xu, I washed the clothes you took off yesterday for you."

"Huh?" Li Xu was stunned at first, then suddenly realized.

Oh my god, I always felt like something was wrong. After hearing this, I realized what was wrong. It turned out that my clothes were among the clothes hanging out to dry.

But I didn’t wash clothes yesterday. I had planned to wash them today.

Li Xu had no choice but to say, "Thank you, sister-in-law. I'll just wash my clothes myself from now on."

Li Xu just felt that it was inappropriate for Hu Guilan, as his sister-in-law, to help him wash clothes.

It is naturally impossible for him to be ungrateful and say harsh words.

"Don't worry, I saw that your clothes were all greasy and I was worried that you couldn't wash them clean, so I helped you wash them."

Of course Li Xu expressed his gratitude again.

Hu Guilan waved her hand and went back to her own business.

Seeing Hu Guilan leaving, Li Xu fell into deep thought.

Li Xu seemed to feel that Hu Guilan had become much more enthusiastic towards him these days.

"Second brother, why aren't you moving again?"

"Little sister, do you feel that sister-in-law seems to be more enthusiastic towards me recently than before?"

Li Ju tilted her head and thought for a moment, "I don't know, but my sister-in-law is very nice to me, even better than before."

After hearing what Li Ju said, Li Xu didn't ask any more questions.

Then he pinched Li Ju's cheek slightly and said, "I asked you if there was anything wrong in the yard, and you said no. I'm so surprised that my second brother trusts you so much."

"Brother, you pinched me and hurt me."

Li Xu let go of his hand, and after seeing a red mark on Li Ju's face, he blamed himself and quickly let go of his hand, "Ah, little sister, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's my fault, second brother, I deserve to be beaten."

As he spoke, Li Xu hit his right hand hard several times with his left hand.

I didn't control the strength well just now and accidentally used a little too much force.

It’s nothing for adults, but for a 6-year-old child like Li Ju, it’s painful.

After seeing this, Li Ju also pulled Li Xu's hand and said, "Second brother, please stop hitting me. It doesn't hurt that much."

Seeing her well-behaved look, Li Xu picked her up and kissed her cheek hard, "Second brother will never pinch your cheek again."

Li Ju also laughed at this time, "It's okay, second brother, just don't hurt it."

Li Xu nodded, but he made up his mind that he would never do this again.

At this time, Li Ju said again, "Second brother, clothes are often hung there."

Li Xu understood, and then he remembered that children do not have such a strong ability to distinguish. In their eyes, as long as it is not their own clothes, everyone else's is the same.

"Yes, it's my second brother's fault, not my younger sister's."

After saying that, he started tickling Li Ju's spots.

Li Ju was twisting and turning in Li Xu's arms, begging for mercy and laughing.

After dinner.

Li Xu chatted with everyone for a while and went to Du Hong's house after dark.

I also brought a bucket of water from home when I went there.

On the way, he took out a few fish and put them in it.

When he arrived at Du Hong's house, Li Xu knocked on the door as usual.

Then a figure rushed out of the house.

Li Xu looked closely and found that it was still Du Sen.

Du Sen quickly rushed to Li Xu.

After seeing clearly that the person coming was Li Xu, his little face drooped.

He said listlessly, "You go in."

Li Xu looked at him with amusement, "Hey, isn't this Brother Du Sen? Why don't you say hello to me?"

Du Sen glanced at him and said angrily, "Hello, Brother Li Xu, please come in."

"Well, that's right. I'll go in first. Oh, and get a bucket."

After saying that, without waiting for a reply, Li Xu carried the bucket and walked into the house.

Only Du Sen was left standing there with a confused look on his face.

He looked left and right, as if trying to confirm whether this was his home.

Because of Li Xu's arrival two days ago, he was beaten twice and was later severely warned by Du Ming.

So he now has some resentment towards Li Xu.

That's why he had a gloomy face when he saw Li Xu just now.

There was nothing he could do. It was because he didn't dare to blame Du Ming and the others.

It was only after Li Xu said that Du Sen shouted.

He was also afraid that Li Xu would complain about him being rude, which would result in him getting beaten up again...

After standing there for a long time, Du Sen decided to get the bucket.

Du Ming and others who were chatting greeted Li Xu when they saw him enter the room.

Especially Yang Li, her face was full of smiles.

As for Du Hong, she kept staring at Li Xu who entered the room.

But there was a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.

After Li Xu greeted everyone, he put the bucket aside and said, "Uncle Du, Aunt Yang, I didn't bring you anything good today, so I just brought you some fish to try."

"Xiao Xu, didn't we tell you the other day not to bring anything here in the future? Why don't you listen?" Although Yang Li tried hard to make an angry expression, she could hardly hold back the smile on her face.

"Your Aunt Yang is right, Xiaoxu, you should take this fish back to your family to eat." Du Ming also agreed.

Li Xu smiled and said, "This is not a good thing. Besides, I have some at home. This is for you."

At this time, Du Sen also came into the house carrying a bucket of water.

Seeing this, Li Xu poured the fish in directly.

Du Sen was immediately energized when he saw the lively fish, and shouted excitedly, "Fish, so many fish!"

As he spoke, he squatted down and grabbed it with his hands.

Du Ming's face darkened instantly when he saw him like this. "Get out of here, useless guy."

He felt that Du Sen's attitude was too embarrassing for them.

Especially when they expressed their disapproval of the fish.

Du Sen was stunned at first when he was scolded, and then he didn't know what he thought of. He ignored it and continued to catch fish with a playful smile.

Li Xu was also amazed when he saw this, thinking that he had never been so brave when he was a child.

You might say he's afraid, but you can't see that from his actions.

If you say he is not afraid, he will admit his mistake and cry out in pain when he is beaten.

Thinking this in his heart, he said, "Uncle Du, it's okay, just let Xiao Sen have some fun. I guess Xiao Sen is so excited because he hasn't seen me for a long time."

There was no way. If Li Xu didn't say a few words to help Du Sen, he felt that Du Ming's anger would soon be uncontrollable.
