Chapter 158 Chapter 158 Lao Cao was stunned for a moment, even...
Lao Cao was stunned for a moment, then quickly stepped forward, stretched out his hands and said, "He is just a child, he looks confused and has been hungry for a long time, don't be too picky with a child!"
"Since he is not in a clear mind," Li Hanshuang moved his feet away and said coldly to the child on the ground, "I will let him go this time. If he does this again next time, I will not be polite."
The child crawled on the ground using all four limbs, looking like a big lizard shaking its head and tail, and bared its teeth at Li Hanshuang, as if his self-esteem had just been slightly hurt and nothing else happened.
Li Hanshuang raised his eyebrows, moved closer to Li Baihe, and whispered, "He looks like a good fighter."
Li Baili turned to look at him, looking at him with a look as if she was recognizing him for the first time. She opened her eyes wide and couldn't help but asked with a smile: "Do you want to hit him?"
Li Hanshuang and Li Baihe looked at each other, smiled and said, "We didn't really do anything, why are you like this? It's as if I really did something to him! Take your gaze away now!"
Li Baili looked away, and Li Hanshuang whispered in his ear: "Actually, you are shorter now than before. I am a little uncomfortable with you. I have to speak to you in a lower position. Don't you think so?"
Li Baili was very surprised and couldn't help asking, "Do you mean you dislike my shortness? I will grow taller tomorrow! You know that, right?"
Li Hanshuang nodded: "I know."
He smiled and said, "I don't mean to dislike you, I just think that you were different before and now, which is quite interesting."
He thought for a moment and said, "It's like playing with a jigsaw puzzle that you're used to, and suddenly you switch to something that looks similar but is different. It's not very easy to use, but it's not because you've used the new thing before. It's a very complicated feeling."
Li Baili smiled and said, "That sounds interesting."
He blinked his eyes, like an elf sitting among the flowers, looking at the moon, smiling and saying, "I can have you come instead someday."
"Okay." Li Hanshuang nodded.
Lao Cao next to him had already picked up the child from the ground and patted him. The child was reluctant to let him get close to him, so he took his hand back and surrounded the child with the people he brought with him.
The child frowned, not quite used to the situation, and his face turned red, as if he felt it was too hot.
Lao Cao said to him earnestly, "You may not be able to survive here alone. Why don't you come home with us? If you can't find your home, our home will be your home."
"What do you think?" Lao Cao looked at him with an expectant look.
He looked at Li Baili with an expectant gaze that was very similar to Lao Cao's, but with a stronger emotion. Obviously, what he meant was that he wanted to live in Li Baili's house.
Li Baili took a breath and waved her hand quickly: "There is no place for you to live in my house." Although he lived in a big villa, but no, no. His place was only for him to live.
He doesn't really welcome others to join him.
The child understood and lowered his head all of a sudden, like a mimosa, curling up into a ball. His color darkened and he said nothing, but everyone who saw him could feel that he was in a low mood.
Li Baili comforted him: "You live with them first, I will come to see you when I have time."
"Okay." The child suddenly raised his head, looked straight at Li Baili, a ferocious smile appeared on his face, and answered in a hoarse voice.
Lao Cao was very surprised and said to the people next to him: "He can really talk! But his voice is a little hoarse! Maybe he didn't drink much water and doesn't talk normally. It doesn't matter, it will be fine after a while!"
"Then please take this child home to wash him, change his clothes and have a meal?" Li Hanshuang said tentatively.
"Okay!" Lao Cao nodded without any reluctance and agreed very readily.
As he said this, he was about to take the child away.
The child refused to leave and just looked at Li Baili.
Lao Cao laughed and said, "I think he wants to go with you! Why don't you come back with us? Sit for a while before leaving. Otherwise, if he doesn't listen, there's nothing we can do."
"Okay." Li Baili thought about it, nodded and said, "Let's go."
Everyone returned to Lao Cao's home.
The child took a bath, changed his clothes, combed his hair, and looked brand new. He appeared in front of Li Baili cleanly while drinking milk and eating cakes.
Lao Cao held his head high, puffed out his chest, put his hands on his hips, and asked proudly, "How is it? Is it different from before? Doesn't it look much more well-behaved? I watched it myself!"
"Very good," Li Baili nodded, hesitated for a moment, and asked tentatively, "Do you also watch me in person when I take a bath?"
Lao Cao was stunned for a moment, then realized what he was worried about. His face suddenly turned red, and he waved his hands quickly: "No, I didn't see him taking off his clothes!"
"That's good!" Li Baili nodded and smiled.
"I heard that milk is good for children, so I took the milk. I don't know if drinking this will have any effect on him at his age after being hungry for a long time?" Lao Cao asked tentatively.
Li Baili took a look and replied, "Warm milk won't have any effect," as long as you don't drink too much or get allergic reactions.
"Then do you think he can eat these things?" Lao Cao brought up another pile of things, all food.
Li Baili took a quick look and took a breath of cold air: "So much? He eats it all by himself? Don't worry he'll get a stomachache!"
Lao Cao smiled and said, "Not all of it is for him to eat. He can eat whatever he likes. The rest will be useful for other purposes. Just take it back. I'll just pick some for him here first."
"If that's the case," Li Baili picked up a few items at random, "He should be able to eat these. After a couple of days when he's recovered, he'll probably be able to eat anything. Don't worry too much."
"Okay, okay!" Lao Cao nodded with a smile: "It's been a while since I've raised a child properly, and I don't really remember how to handle it. Thanks to you guys."
Li Baili quickly laughed and said, "Look at what you are saying. Although he was dug out from the nearby ruins, he is not from your family. It is very good that you can support him.
We are so happy that you are willing to pay attention to us. How can we lose anything? We have known each other for a long time. There is no need to be so polite. "
Lao Cao laughed loudly: "That's right! I'm old now, and I just love these false formalities. Today I used them in the wrong place. From now on, we should treat each other as a family and no one should be polite to each other."
Li Baili just smiled.
If we really treat them as a family, that would be too much.
He was not so greedy, nor was he so needy. He just listened to these polite words. If he took them seriously, he was sure that he would suffer misfortune for the rest of his life.
He just has himself.
"Then will you stay for dinner today?" Lao Cao asked tentatively.
Li Baili thought about it and shook her head and said, "Forget it, we can go home."
Lao Cao suddenly became curious, so he asked carefully, "Did you know how to speak before, or did you learn it recently? I've never seen anyone like you. You grew up in the blink of an eye!"
You can actually speak! You look no different from a normal person! But a normal child can’t learn how to speak in just one or two days! And you are so fluent! You are really special!"
Li Baili hesitated and said, "I knew it before. I am indeed different from ordinary children." Because I am not a real child! Can I tell you this? I can't! You'd better not ask!
He couldn't help but sigh.
Seeing that he seemed unhappy, Lao Cao quickly stopped talking, glanced at Li Hanshuang, and saw that Li Hanshuang didn't seem to be about to do anything, so he quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
He asked questions to satisfy his curiosity, and now that his curiosity was satisfied and he had gotten the answer, there was no need to continue asking questions, and there was no need to anger his savior.
Lao Cao stopped when he saw that he was ahead, and said with a smile, as if chatting with a family, "Well, will you come again later?"
Li Baili thought for a moment and said, "It will come."
He glanced at Li Hanshuang, who understood and said to Lao Cao, "Actually, we came here because we have something to do. If you can help, that would be great."
Lao Cao asked quickly: "What's the matter? I will help if I can!"
Li Hanshuang smiled and said, "Please help search the streets to make sure there are still people hiding there. It's much safer now than before. It would be a pity if someone died down there."
Lao Cao nodded repeatedly: "That's right, I will find a way."
"There is one more thing," Li Hanshuang said hesitantly, "After rescuing the people, it would be best if you check your own house. After all, you haven't lived in it for a while, and no one knows if there have been any changes to the house.
At first, I didn’t say that everyone needed a place to stay, so I thought it would be no problem to live in my own home, but, just in case, it’s safer to check it out.”
Lao Cao nodded thoughtfully and said, "I see. I will inform others and then check my own house. What if we find something that we can't handle?"
Li Baili smiled: "We will take care of it. Leave the things you can't handle to us. We are very free recently, and we really hope that this street can be restored to its previous appearance. We will do our best to help."
Lao Cao was stunned for a moment, then he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "That's great! Thank you so much! You have helped so much, we don't know how to thank you!"
Li Baili was not sure whether he was sincere or just being polite, so she narrowed her eyes. But no matter whether he was sincere or not, this was a good opportunity, so Li Baili smiled and said, "If you really want to thank us, it's actually very simple."
Lao Cao raised his eyebrows, opened his eyes wide, and asked attentively: "What should I do?"
Li Baili felt that he was at least half sincere, so she said with a calm smile: "As long as you restore this street to its previous state as soon as possible, we can have fun!"
