The youngest, Hu Laosi, tilted his head and looked at Leng You for a long time. Seeing that she was not as tall as himself, he began to seriously doubt the word "sister".
The other three also had expressions of curiosity and confusion, which soon turned into contempt.
Leng You also quickly took a look at the so-called "Four Heavenly Kings" who had been giving Hu Liu a headache all day long and making him almost jump to his feet.
The four children's tall and strong figures were obviously inherited from Hu Liu. Their chubby faces are exactly the same as Hu Liu's, but their facial features are mostly like their mother Zhang Meilan, which are much softer and not as rough and stiff as Hu Liu's.
It is said that the second and third child are twins. They look exactly the same, but you can see that one is more active and the other is relatively a little quieter, but only a little.
But as the saying goes, like father, like mother, a tiger's son will dig holes, and leaving aside the genetic factors, the subtle influence over a long period of time shows that these guys are the kind of people who are playful to no end.
Seeing Leng You's thin and small appearance, and being yelled at by Hu Liu to call her sister, the four boys were obviously very unconvinced, although they were nine, eight and six years old respectively, and even the eldest one was younger than Leng You's birthday.
"You have to call me sister, even if you are little. Hurry up and call someone." Hu Liu raised his voice and glared at her, looking like he would start beating her if she didn't call.
"Sister..." The four boys called reluctantly.
"Hmm!" Leng You responded indifferently, without a smile or any flattery, and followed Hu Liu into the yard.
"Why is she ignoring us?"
"Does she look down on us?"
"Her? She looks so tiny, I can crush her with one hand."
"Don't touch her. Don't you see that my parents like her more than us? Be careful or they'll beat you to death."
"So what? I don't want to call her sister."
"Neither do I."
"With her condition, we still have to consider whether she can be our sister."
"If she cries all the time like Arya and the others, I won't even want her as my sister."
"If she's as annoying as Arya and the others, I'll beat her up."
"If you dare to hit her, Hu Liu will skin you alive."
"Zhang Meilan will also give you a spanking."
"Grandpa and grandma have to be beaten too."
…
Leng You had extremely sharp hearing and had heard the four boys whispering behind him from a distance, and he resisted the urge to curl his lips.
"Niece, you're finally here. Come in quickly." Zhang Meilan rubbed her wet hands on her apron as she walked out, with a smile on her face.
"Is it girl Youyou who's here?" A woman with white hair who looked a few years older than Wen Jiuyue also hurried out.
"Hurry up and let the children come into the house. It's cold outside." Together with the white-haired woman was a thin man who looked to be in his sixties.
Leng You judged that these two must be Hu Liu's parents.
I had learned from Hu Liu before that his father didn't get married until he was over 30 years old because his family was poor when he was young, and his mother had poor health, so several engagements ended in failure until she married Hu Liu's father.
So his father is 59 years old this year, his mother is 50 years old, and Hu Liu is only 27 years old. The reason why Hu Liu is the sixth child is that he is the only child born to his parents, along with his cousins.
In fact, what surprised Leng You the most was Hu Liu's age. When she first looked at Hu Liu's appearance, she thought he was a man who was almost forty years old.
"Hello, Grandpa Hu, hello, Grandma Hu!" Leng You greeted the two elders.
"Hey, hey! What a sensible child. This child is so cute and well-behaved!" Grandma Hu immediately took Leng You's hand.
Leng You's hands stiffened for a moment, but when he felt that genuine passion, he finally relaxed slowly.
"That's great, that's great. It's much better than that bad boy." Seeing Grandpa Hu's headache, he must have been annoyed by his grandchildren a lot.
She was escorted into the house and then enthusiastically pushed onto the warm kang. Grandma Hu held Leng You's soft little hand the whole time, and the more she looked at him, the more she liked him.
"Uncle Hu, could you please bring that bag and that bag over here?" Leng You pointed to one of the big bags and a big cloth bag she brought.
"Oh! Okay." Hu Liu quickly brought the things to Leng You.
"This is for Grandpa Hu and Grandma Hu." Leng You took out a bunch of canned food, snacks and fruits from his bag.
Then he untied the bag and took out two pieces of cloth, one was dark grey polyester and the other was light grey wool polyester, each piece of cloth could make a set of clothes.
"Oh! We should buy it for you, how can you buy it for us! This is not okay, we can't accept it." Grandma Hu waved her hands quickly.
"That's right, that's right. You are still so young, how can you spend money on us!" Grandpa Hu also refused with an uneasy look on his face.
"Dad, Mom, this is a gift from my eldest niece. I've already bought it, so just accept it!" Hu Liu spoke immediately when he received Leng You's pleading gaze.
Of all people, he is definitely the one who understands Leng You's temper the best, knowing that Leng You is only like this to people close to him.
"This is so inappropriate, so inappropriate, really." It can be seen that Grandpa Hu is an honest man.
"This is for Uncle Hu Liu and Aunt Hu Liu." Leng You took out a piece of black and army green corduroy fabric respectively and handed them to Zhang Meilan.
"Oh! This is really impossible. How can I let my eldest niece buy cloth for me? Even Sixth Aunt has never bought any for you.
Take it back quickly and keep it for you and grandma."
Zhang Meilan looked ashamed.
"Keep it! Since my niece has already taken it, there's no way she can take it back." Hu Liu spoke up again.
"This is for my younger brothers." Leng You took out a whole roll of navy blue polyester. She felt that it was enough to make a set of clothes for each of the four boys.
These fabrics were brought from home by her. Whenever she came across good fabrics, she would buy them home. In addition, there were also those that Xiang Huaixin had brought from Pingdu before. Now there were so many different kinds of fabrics piled up at home that she and Wen Jiuyue could not use them all.
Thinking that Hu Liu might invite her home, she made some preparations in this regard.
"Why did this child bring so many things? It will cost a lot of money." Grandma Hu couldn't bear it.
Ever since Hu Liu and Leng You met, Hu Liu would praise Leng You every day when he returned home. Influenced by this, the two elders of the Hu family and Zhang Meilan also had a very good impression of Leng You and were looking forward to seeing this child with their own eyes.
In particular, Hu Liu would bring back a lot of food from time to time, saying that it was sent by Leng You.
Even for the Hu family, who had a middle-class life, those foods could be considered high-end foods that they rarely had.
This made the two elders of the Hu family and Zhang Meilan even more eager to meet Leng You.
