If Huaying doesn't have some principles, it will easily develop bad habits. He will think that as long as he wants something, he can get it by crying and making a fuss...

Many naughty children are caused by the unconditional compromise of a naughty adult, and Hua Shi quickly realized this.

As expected, after Xiao Huaying didn't get what she wanted, her eyes turned red and tears fell down.

He cried very skillfully, just watching her cry silently without making any sound. His red eyes were filled with tears, and he looked aggrieved.

My heart aches when I see flowers.

Here we go again, it's always like this...

Hua Shi said with a wooden face, "Go ahead and cry if you want to. I'm going back to the house first."

The little guy hiccuped and looked at Hua Shi with tearful eyes as he pushed the door open and entered the house. With a "bang", the door closed.

Xiao Huaying was stunned for a moment, blinked her eyes, stopped crying, and put away her pitiful expression.

He frowned and thought...

It seems like crying is no use...?

…

In the house on the other side.

Hua Li frowned and whispered, "Second brother? This is hawthorn cake, she, she made it..."

He lowered his eyes, looked at the hawthorn cake in his hand, and handed it to his second brother who was sitting on the kang bed. His expression hidden in the shadows was a little absent-minded, as if he was thinking about something.

Hua Yu glanced at him and silently took the hawthorn cake from Hua Li's hand.

A soft and sticky touch came from his fingertips. He first lowered his head to smell the scent. The sweet aroma of brown sugar mixed with the sour smell of hawthorn came to his nose.

The fragrant and glutinous taste, with a hint of sweetness, spreads from the tip of the tongue to the whole body...

Hua Yu frowned.

She always likes to make sweet things like this lately...

He didn't like this taste, but he couldn't say he hated it either...

After eating a piece of hawthorn cake, Hua Yu's brows furrowed even deeper, and his dark eyes seemed to be filled with black whirlpools.

He was a little confused as to why Hua Shi had been acting this way recently...

Since he fell ill, in the past ten days or so, or more than half a month ago, she seemed to have earned some small amounts of money, which she exchanged for rice and flour, and occasionally meat, and made various kinds of food, and she would generously share these things with them...

Every day, otherwise, they might still be starving... freezing... Yes, she also bought them a pair of thick clothes...

If it were in the past, she would definitely not do this...

Ah...what is the reason?

"Second brother...? Second brother?"

Hua Li suddenly spoke, interrupting his complicated thoughts.

Hua Yu raised her eyelids and looked at him.

Hua Li's brows were tightly furrowed and never relaxed.

Looking at his second brother's dark eyes, he swallowed hard and said hesitantly, "Second brother, I always feel that there is something hidden in her house..."

Hua Yu: "What is it?"

Hua Li shook his head, "I don't know now." He paused, and seeing that his second brother didn't react, he thought he didn't believe it, and continued: "I'm not talking nonsense. You see, she always keeps the door tightly closed. She must be hiding something in there that she can't let us know."

Hua Yu's expression didn't change. "So what? What do you want to say?"

Hua Li obviously had some unspeakable guesses in her heart, but her brother saw through it at a glance.

When Hua Li was hesitant, Hua Yu did not interrupt him.

"Brother, I think Xiaobai is hiding in Huashi's house. I seemed to hear a dog barking, and that was Xiaobai's barking."

Hua Li hesitated for a moment, then finally expressed his thoughts.

Hua Yu raised his eyes and thought for a moment before he remembered what the Xiaobai he was talking about was...

That day, the little white dog Hua Li insisted on bringing back?

Hua Yu frowned unhappily, looking at his cowardly and incompetent brother, his voice a little cold, "If you want to know, why don't you go and see it yourself? What's the point of telling me?"

Hua Li heard the unhappiness in her second brother's words and pinched her fingers helplessly, "Second brother..."

…

“Boom boom boom!”

The quiet courtyard was suddenly broken by a knock on the door.

"Who is it?"

Hua Xiao, who was sweeping snow in the yard with a broom, was stunned for a moment when she heard the orderly knocks on the door, and then shouted loudly towards the gate.

She shook off the snow on her body, trotted over and opened the door.

“Pah.”

Hua Xiao frowned: "Who are you?"

The little girl opened the door a crack, stuck her head out, and looked outside with a hint of vigilance in her eyes.

He Jiang scratched the back of his head, looked at Hua Xiao, grinned and said, "My name is He Jiang. You are Hua Shi's sister, right? I have something to talk to her about."

Hua Xiao blinked, looked him up and down, and after a while she was sure that he had no ill intentions. She opened the door and let him in.

"Come in, I'll go call her."

Hua Xiao felt that he looked familiar, as if he was the one who knocked on the door last time, but last time there were two people, but this time it was just him alone.

Grandma hasn't come back yet, and they're the only ones at home, so it's okay to let him in...

Hua Xiao thought about it, and asked He Jiang, who had already walked in, to wait in the yard, while he trotted over and called Hua Shi to come out.

"When you spend time, someone is looking for you!"

When Hua was feeding hawthorn cake to the little white dog in the house, she suddenly heard Hua Xiao calling her at the door.

"I'll be right there." she replied.

She walked over, closed the open back door with a straw curtain, and patted the head of the little white dog that was hanging around her feet.
