Chapter 4: The Sick Relative Living Next Door
Li Mingze, on the other hand, remained indifferent to the departure of his mother and sister. He stirred the egg custard in his bowl with a spoon, but he didn't put a single bite into his mouth. He just kept stirring and stirring...
"Don't worry about them, Yaoyao, let's continue eating egg custard!" Li Yunfeng brought another bowl of egg custard and moved closer to Bai Yaoyao.
Bai Yaoyao looked at the delicious food in the bowl. Her stomach felt a little full, but she still wanted to eat more.
Li Mingyan reached out and took the egg custard, saying in a light tone, "Third Uncle, Yaoyao is too young to eat too much."
For Li Yunfeng, a person who traveled through time, he was not afraid of anything except his nephew who was four years younger than him.
He once guessed that his eldest nephew was the one who got the male lead's script.
Why else would he feel scared every time his nephew stood in front of him, without saying a word and just staring at him?
So, he immediately said to Bai Yaoyao, "Yaoyao, your uncle will make other delicious food for you at noon. If you eat too much now, you won't be able to eat at noon. You can only watch, so let's not eat!"
The little girl licked her lips, a little reluctant, but finally nodded obediently, "Okay."
This obedient little look really makes people feel distressed.
Li Mingyan pinched her little nose and said, "Be good, your cousin won't go to school today. I'll take you to play on the street!"
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Bai Yaoyao's eyes lit up, "Really?"
After all, the little princess is rarely allowed to go out because of her special status and young age!
Before Li Mingyan could answer, Madam Li suddenly asked, "Mingyan, Mr. Li shouldn't be on vacation today. What's the matter?"
Li Mingyan sat up straight, "Grandma, a distant relative has come to visit Grandpa Liu next door. He seems to be feeling unwell recently, and Grandpa Liu wants me to take him to see a doctor!"
"Are you not feeling well? Is it serious?" Yao also put down her bowl and chopsticks.
"He was born weak and has been relying on medicine for years. Now that he has no relatives at home, he has no choice but to come to Grandpa Liu for help. Grandpa Liu just moved to Sifang City not long ago and is unfamiliar with the city, so he asked me to take him there!"
Madam Li nodded. "Your Grandpa Liu's son sacrificed his life for his country. That's truly admirable! You and your grandson are the only ones left at home. Your grandson, Xiao Chengcai, is only eleven years old. As neighbors, it's only natural for us to help each other. So, go ahead! Remember to bring some money with you. If the Liu family has any difficulties, feel free to lend a hand!"
As she spoke, Madam Li touched Bai Yaoyao's little head with a loving look on her face, "The most important thing is that our little darling has to go too, so we can't let him go uninvited. Buy whatever you like!"
"Thank you, grandma! Yaoyao loves you the most!" The little girl hugged Mrs. Li's arm, rubbing her little head in her arms. Her squinted eyebrows were like a pair of crescent moons, and her thick eyelashes were long and black. She was as cute as she could be.
How could Mrs. Li bear this?
She hurriedly ordered her personal maid, "Qingxing, quickly, go to my box and get some silver for my little darling. Grandmother has taken care of her expenses for today!"
"Why would I need mother?" Yao suddenly interrupted her with a smile, pulling out a stack of banknotes from her sleeve and stuffing them into Bai Yaoyao's arms. "This is the bonus from the Rouge Shop today. My aunt hasn't had time to settle the bill yet. Yaoyao, take it and use it first. If it's not enough, you can withdraw it from the account!"
