Chapter 166 I am Iron

"Hey~ You just agreed. Why are you going back on your word?"

Lin Xiangnan put his hands on his hips and angrily said, "How dare you say that? Weren't you the first to regret it?"

"What's wrong with me changing my mind? I'm your mother!" Hu Meili was not justified but still felt strong.

As a mother, what's wrong with her taking charge of her daughter?

Lin Xiangnan rolled his eyes. "You are not my mother. You are the one who cares about her. You are right anyway."

Her words made Lin Xiangxi, who was in the kitchen, laugh.

"Don't worry about it, haha." Lin Xiangxi praised: "Sister, your word choice is so accurate. Why didn't I think of this word before."

In this family, Lin Xiangnan was not the only one who was devastated by Hu Meili's unreasonable behavior. Lin Xiangxi was also one of the victims.

With such a confidant, Lin Xiangnan rushed into the kitchen, put his arm around his younger brother's shoulders, and said excitedly: "We are not siblings at all. We are simply a league of victims."

Hu Meili was so angry that she wanted to hit them both.

"When you need help from me, you call me mom affectionately. When you have nothing to do, you tell me to 'ignore it'. You two have really grown wings! Do you want to be beaten?"

"Mom, don't be angry, it was just a joke." Lin Xiangxi quickly begged for mercy.

Lin Xiangnan also hurriedly stroked her hair, "Yes, yes, yes, mom, don't be angry, my little brother and I were just joking with you."

Seeing that they looked like good siblings and had a close relationship, Hu Meili suddenly smiled.

"Xiao Nan, I want to file a complaint."

Hu Meili glanced at Lin Xiangxi and said, "Before you went home, Lin Xiangxi didn't read any of the books you sent back. He only started pretending after you came back."

"Mom, you are slandering me!" Lin Xiangxi quickly explained, "Sister, Mom is just talking nonsense. Don't believe it. Mom is trying to sow discord!"

"I'm not talking nonsense." Hu Meili said righteously, "Your elder brother can't control you. I can't bear to punish you either. Then let your sister do it."

Lin Xiangxi's eyes widened: "Mom!"

He wanted to say something else, but his ear was already in Lin Xiangnan's hand.

"Ouch~" Lin Xiangxi begged pitifully, "Sister, I was wrong."

"It's been so long since we last met, and you've learned to pretend. I won't ask you whether you've read the book or not, I'll just do the test paper and check your results."

Lin Xiangnan went upstairs to his room and when he came out, he had several papers in his hands.

"Come on, write it. I'll know your level after you finish writing it."

Lin Xiangxi wanted to cry but had no tears. "Sister, why do you still have so many papers at home?"

"Who told me to love studying? You haven't learned any good habits from me." In fact, Lin Xiangnan didn't like studying either. The test papers were bought from the space mall, but who told her to pretend.

Hu Meili, who was gloating over someone else's misfortune, raised her hand and said, "Xiao Nan, go and do your thing. I'll help you supervise him and make sure he doesn't cheat."

"Then I'll take the kids out for a walk." Lin Xiangnan called Gu Zhenhua and pushed the cart away with confidence.

After Lin Xiangnan left, Hu Meili reached out and poked Lin Xiangxi on the forehead.

"You always thought you were your sister's lackey. Today you finally fell into my hands."

"I'll sit right in front of you today and watch how you write."

"snort!"

Lin Xiangxi bit the tip of the pen and said with a smile: "Mom, you think too much. I didn't plan to cheat. No one in the yard can do these questions. Who can I ask for cheating? I can ask you, but you can't do it."

Those older than him are at work today, and those younger than him are all primary school students and are not reliable at all. For example, when he writes himself, he is still a junior high school student after all, and he has been watched and read a lot of books during this period.

Lin Xiangxi looked at the small leather shoes on his feet and sighed. Lin Xiangnan was so good to him, he couldn't let her down.

No matter how difficult the question is, he will still try his best.

After giving himself enough psychological comfort, Lin Xiangxi began to write.

As he was writing, Lin Xiangxi suddenly bit his hand and started laughing.

"What are you laughing at? Did you get stupid while doing the test?"

Lin Xiangxi didn't answer and just enjoyed himself.

"What are you laughing at?" Hu Meili was startled and couldn't help looking around, fearing that there was something dirty.

"Mom, you don't understand."

"I don't understand? I have improved now and am at least at the level of a third-grade primary school student!" Hu Meili was unconvinced and leaned over to take a look.

"There are 21.7 people on the bus? How did you calculate the majority of people?" Hu Meili said in shock, "At least make it an integer. Erase this and just write 21 people."

"But I calculated this 21.7 very carefully, step by step. The formula is still on the paper. Just changing the result won't work."

Lin Xiangxi knew his own level and accepted the result calmly. After laughing, he continued to solve the next problem.

But for the next question, he thought for a long time and couldn't even come up with a solution. Then he couldn't help laughing at himself.

Before he could say anything, Hu Meili sighed.

"Your sister is counting on you to study hard, get a better job, and get a raise. I think your sister is counting on you for nothing."

"Working in a hotel is so good. There's food and drink. Even if I get a high salary, my life may not be as comfortable as when I work in a hotel." Lin Xiangxi doesn't really care about this.

Most people don’t have the energy to improve themselves after work.

Lin Xiangxi was already satisfied as long as he had a job and didn't have to go to the countryside. Asking him to study would really make it difficult for him.

When Lin Xiangnan came back from his walk, they were helpless after checking the paper he had done.

"I'm afraid you've returned all the books you read to your teacher. What are they about? Bullshit."

Lin Xiangxi pulled Lin Xiangnan's sleeve and said, "Sister, I really can't read those books. Besides, don't you play every day? Why do you force me to study?"

Before Lin Xiangnan could say anything, Hu Meili started to praise him proudly.

"Your sister likes to play, but she's smart. When she was with us, it wasn't very obvious, but when she came to the family compound, she got the opportunity and stood out all of a sudden."

"I said your sister was smart since she was young. Sure enough, when she first started working, she was valued by their leaders and promoted to the most important project. If she is gold, she will shine wherever she goes."

The project that Lin Xiangnan participated in was helicopter manufacturing, and Hu Meili, a family member, was also proud of it. When she talked about it, she couldn't help but raise her head and chest. Lin Xiangnan was her pride now!

Lin Xiangxi was neither jealous nor envious, and continued to say with a smile: "Yes, I admit that my elder brother and second sister are both gold. But I am different, I am iron, and iron does not shine."

Hu Meili glared at him and said, "Nonsense. I gave birth to both of them. How can you be so stubborn? You have to shine for me, too."

"Mom, if you like shiny things, I'll go shave my head tomorrow?"

"I'll beat you to death, you bastard. Do you dare to try shaving your head?"
