Chapter 20: Don't let your brother be a custodial dog
Yu Lixin: “…”
Yu Jianshe: "Continue doing your homework. I'll check it when you're done."
"I'll just play for a while and be back soon. I'll continue writing when I get back." Yu Lixin negotiated.
Yu Jianshe put down the comic book in his hand and looked at his brother helplessly, "Are you trying to persuade Dongdong? You clearly just want to eat Aunt Yu's steamed buns and keep your mouth shut."
"Dongdong, if you did something like this when you were three or four years old, people would think you were ignorant and cute. But you are eight years old now. If you do something like this again, people will think you are shameless and have no manners." Yu Jianshe is only ten years old, but he is already very sensible.
Although he was so tempted by the smell of the buns that he couldn't continue reading the comic strip, he would never let his younger brother go to the next door to be a guard dog just to eat the buns.
Yu Jianshe pouted and walked to the desk dejectedly and sat down.
As soon as I sat down, I heard someone calling, "Brother Li Xin."
When Yu Lizhi looked up, he saw three-year-old Gu Xixi carrying a plate of plump white buns and walking over the threshold of the courtyard.
His face lit up with joy and he hurried out to greet him.
It’s buns, big, white and plump buns.
"Xixi, why are you here?"
Gu Xixi replied in a baby voice: "Mom asked me to bring some for you and Brother Jianshe to try."
Yu Lixin quickly took it and said, "Aunt Yu, you are too polite. These buns smell delicious and must be delicious."
After he finished speaking, he picked up one and was about to put it in his mouth, but before he could do so, he was hit on the head by his brother.
Yu Jianshe glared at his greedy brother and said, "Go clear the plate first and let Xixi take it back."
"Oh." Yu Lixin went to the kitchen with the plate.
Yu Jianshe took six walnuts in his hand, squatted down and put them into Gu Xixi's pocket, "Take it back and eat it with Aunt Yu."
Ten-year-old Yu Jianshe was like an adult, very mature, and he knew that when someone sent him food, he had to give something in return.
These walnuts were brought by his grandmother during the Chinese New Year, and they taste very good.
"Thank you, Brother Jianshe."
Yu Jianshe patted his head and said, "I should be thanking you and Aunt Yu. Where are your eldest and second brothers?"
When the eldest and second brothers were mentioned, Gu Xixi frowned worriedly, "The eldest and second brothers are still in their rooms with the door closed."
After the buns were ready, he wanted to give them to his eldest and second brothers, but he was afraid that his mother would be unhappy.
Because my eldest and second brothers did something very wrong today and made my mother very sad.
Yu Jianshe didn't say anything after hearing this. Yu Lixin walked out of the kitchen with an empty plate and returned it to Gu Xixi.
Gu Nan leaned on the windowsill, swallowing his saliva as he smelled the aroma wafting in from outside. "Brother, the buns are ready. Xixi just took a plate away. She should be sending it to Brother Jianshe's house."
Each of the buns was bigger than his fist, white and plump, and looked delicious.
He hasn't eaten buns for a long time.
Gu Dong knew that the buns were steamed, but after what happened just now, he was too embarrassed to go to the kitchen to get the buns to eat.
"Xixi is back again." Gu Nan saw Gu Xi walking into the yard with an empty plate.
When Gu Xixi heard his second brother's voice, he turned around and saw his second brother lying on the windowsill. He thought for a moment and walked over.
"Second brother, these are the walnuts that Brother Jianshe gave me. One for you and one for my eldest brother." Gu Xixi took out two walnuts from her pocket and gave them to her second brother.
Gu Nan took over and asked, "Xixi, are the buns delicious?"
"I haven't eaten yet. Mom said the buns were too hot, so it's just right for me to eat them after delivering the buns to Brother Jianshe and the others."
Gu Nan snorted, "She's really generous now. She sent us a whole plate of meat buns without even asking us to eat."
Gu Xixi whispered, "Brother, if you want to eat, you can come out and eat in the kitchen."
Gu Nan curled his lips and said, "Go to the kitchen and bring us four buns."
Gu Xixi frowned in confusion, and after a long while, she said, "No, I'm afraid Mom will be angry. I'm going to eat some buns."
After saying that, Gu Xixi turned and ran away.
"This little traitor..." Gu Nan gritted his teeth in anger.
"Mom, I'm getting fatter." The little guy's voice was filled with joy.
Yu Hui was tearing the bun wrappers to feed Bei Bei, "You're back, wash your hands and help yourself to the buns."
"Okay~"
Gu Xixi washed her hands, shook them, wiped them dry with a towel, stood on tiptoe, took out a bun from the small bamboo basket and ate it.
"Awoo..." He took a big bite and bit into the delicious meat filling.
"Eat~" the little guy squinted his eyes happily and shook his head in pleasure.
Seeing the little guy eating so happily, Yu Hui also felt a sense of satisfaction in her heart.
The two brothers Yu Jianshe next door were also eating delicious buns. Yu Lixin was eating while spinning around.
"Aunt Yu's buns are so delicious! They're full of meat and oozing with oil. They're so fragrant."
Yu Jianshe looked at his silly brother and smiled, savoring the delicious buns in small bites, reluctant to finish them too quickly.
It was the first time he had eaten such delicious buns, which were even more delicious than those bought in the cafeteria.
Each bun was bigger than their fists, with a lot of stuffing, full of the aroma of onions and meat, but Yu Lixin had a big mouth and he finished them in just five or six bites.
After finishing his meal, his eyes once again fell on the six buns on the plate on the stove.
Yu Jianshe knew what he was thinking just by looking at him.
"I can't eat it anymore. Save it for when Mom and Dad come back to eat together."
Aunt Yu asked Xixi to bring eight buns, two for each family member.
If they finish their two now, their parents will definitely give them one each when they come back to eat.
Yu Lixin pursed his lips and didn't reach out again.
The bags were too big, and Gu Xixi felt full after eating two.
Yu Hui also ate two, and after eating, she waited for a while, and the second pot of buns was ready.
Yu Hui picked them all out and put them in a basket, added some water to the pot, and steamed the third pot.
When the third pot of steam was ready, Yu Hui took out the baby carrier and carried Beibei on her back.
Holding a basket full of plump, oily buns in one hand, he walked out the door holding Gu Xixi's hand.
"Brother, Yu Hui went out again with a big basket of buns." As soon as Yu Hui left, Gu Nan's head appeared on the windowsill again.
Gu Dong was still lying on the bed in an emo manner and said "Oh".
"Those are meat buns bought with our father's money. Who does she want to give them to?" Gu Nan said angrily.
"Li Xin..." Yu Hui shouted outside the gate of Yu's courtyard.
When Yu Lixin, who was still busy doing his homework, heard his Aunt Yu calling him, he immediately put down his pen and ran out.
"What's wrong, Aunt Yu?"
"Do you know where Teacher Li's home is?" She wanted to deliver these buns to Teacher Li's home as a thank you gift for the free milk powder coupons she gave them.
