In the Yan family's bedroom, Mo Yutong, sitting in a chair, was shocked by their simple conversation.
Cause trouble? Break through the wall? Steal? These words, taken together, were beyond her comprehension, but she firmly believed that in this extraordinary period, force could not solve all problems.
As the saying goes, two fists cannot beat four hands. No matter how powerful Brother Li is, he cannot defeat the strength of an entire village, or even an entire team.
Most of the time, another powerful and extraordinary measure is needed, such as a solid family background, to make those bastards who take advantage of others' misfortune and are eager to create chaos in the world give up.
Besides, Mo Yutong knew the trajectory of historical development, even though she was not someone who liked to watch the news and understand the domestic and international situation.
But being born in such a family, sensitivity and sharpness seem to be innate.
She clearly remembered that when that fateful event happened in October next year, families of the five categories of elements like Li Ge would gradually see a turnaround. They would break free from the shackles of history and embark on a new life of their own.
Therefore, the villain in Mo Yutong's heart clenched her little fists. She had to protect her boy and his younger brothers and sisters in this darkness before dawn, and no one could bully them anymore.
"Is it because of the meat?" Mo Yutong's eyes were burning with fire. She sorted out her thoughts, calmed her emotions, picked up a few slices of braised pig ears, and rolled them on the lid of the lunch box.
"Yeah." Yan Mingli did not deny it, but he did not say much. The little girl was kind-hearted, and he couldn't make her sad.
"Eat more, it will go bad overnight." Mo Yutong put the braised pig ears dipped in chili powder into his teacup, and his tone became unusually gentle, even with a hint of heartache.
"I..." Yan Mingli wanted to refuse, but raised his eyes to meet her watery eyes.
The rippling water seemed to drown him, sparkling with the most hazy colors in the world, like the gentle moonlight flowing, like the soft morning breeze lingering, like the peach blossoms in his heart blooming season after season.
He couldn't stand the moonlight and morning breeze, so he had to lower his eyes quickly, stuff all the braised pig ears into his mouth, and then dig into the corn paste in the teacup.
"Chengcheng and Xueer should eat too." Mo Yutong looked at the light pink on Yan Mingli's ears, and in a good mood, she picked up a few pieces of braised pork elbows for Yan Mingcheng and Yan Mingxue respectively.
"Sister, why don't you eat pig ears?" Yan Mingxue squinted her eyes and enjoyed the super delicious braised meat, and did not forget to ask curiously.
"Your elder brother likes to eat it." Mo Yutong did not hide the implication at all, and almost said blatantly: I want to leave it all to Brother Li.
It seems that the space does not have the automatic filling function for the time being. There are only ten braised pig ears in the entire Cao Ji Braised Meat Shop. If one is eaten, there will be one less. Of course, she has to save some for her boy.
"..." Yan Mingli didn't expect her to be so direct. For a moment he didn't know whether to continue eating or put down his chopsticks.
"Eat quickly, eat quickly, this portion of mine is all yours." Mo Yutong couldn't help but curved her eyebrows when she saw how embarrassed she was, and continued to put the pig ears mixed with chili powder into the teacup.
"You eat too." Yan Mingli suddenly found that he had no way to refuse the little girl. She was like God who knew his suffering and gave him hope, full of all kinds of destiny in myths.
"Brother, why is your face red?" Yan Mingxue, who was eating meat happily, threw out another brainless question without any consideration, which made the remaining three people gasp for breath.
But she was completely unaware of what she had said. She was still happily eating the braised pork elbow and corn porridge. She didn't seem to have thought about asking her eldest brother for an answer to this question. She just spoke too quickly.
Yan Mingli clenched his chopsticks and rubbed his back teeth, wanting to knock her head with the tips of his chopsticks. How could he be blushing? How could he be blushing? But he didn't dare to look up, for fear that he was really blushing.
"Brother, were you seen by anyone when you went down the mountain this morning?" Yan Mingcheng was now the most caring little cotton-padded jacket. Seeing that his brother was about to break the branch in two, he quickly changed the subject.
"I only met Yang Goudan in the mountains." The new topic slightly eased Yan Mingli's embarrassment. He frowned slightly and recalled the last harsh words Yang Goudan said.
"He must be jealous of his elder brother's ability to hunt wild rabbits, pheasants, wild goats and wild boars, but he himself can't catch anything, so he goes out and talks nonsense, what a bad guy!" Yan Mingxue said indignantly.
"Brother Li can also hunt?" Mo Yutong's shock increased. From his intermittent narration in her previous life, she thought the so-called "hunting some wild game" meant sparrows and turtledoves, but she didn't expect that there were also wild goats and wild boars. This was too amazing!
The admiration in the little girl's eyes was so obvious that it greatly satisfied the boy's vanity.
At that moment, the boy discovered that he could also be looked at by the beautiful girl with burning eyes without feeling inferior, and he even felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction in his heart.
"Brother, you're a great hunter." Yan Mingcheng's timely encouragement made Mo Yutong's admiration even greater. He smiled and asked, "Brother Li, when are you free, can you take me up the mountain?"
"Okay!" Yan Mingli answered without hesitation, which was like a knife stabbing Yan Mingxue's heart. She muttered in dissatisfaction, "Didn't Big Brother say that the mountains are not suitable for girls?"
"..." Having forgotten what he had said, Yan Mingli wanted to make amends, but Yan Mingxue only wanted to finish him off, "Brother, you are biased when you see me!"
Hmm... that's a very good point! Mo Yutong wanted to applaud, but was afraid of scaring her boy away.
After all, this is only the first day, so she can't act too brilliantly.
"It's not suitable for underage girls to go there." Yan Mingli felt a little heartbroken after saying this. The little girl in front of him didn't seem to be an adult yet!
"I'm seventeen years old." Mo Yutong blinked cunningly and looked at him with a smile.
"Brother, you said that one is considered an adult only when he is 18 years old, right?" Yan Mingli's forehead twitched when he saw Yan Mingxue's resentful eyes. After taking a deep breath, he decided to show the dignity of an elder brother.
"Eat quickly, I have to give you a bath after you finish eating." Yan Mingli was only a 19-year-old boy. He was not yet the big boss who was adept at dealing with people in the business world in his previous life, so he could only change the subject abruptly.
"..." Yan Mingxue pouted and was about to say something when there was a fierce knock on the door outside the yard.
Occasionally, a slightly older male voice, which was very unfamiliar to Mo Yutong, could be heard, "Young man from the Yan family, open the door. I am Wei Zhengmao."
Uncle Wei? Yan Mingli thought his so-called third aunt would go to the captain, but he didn't expect it to be Uncle Wei.
Now he was not worried anymore. After all, Uncle Wei was the brigade secretary of Pingshang Brigade. He was also one of the people who had received favors from his father and had taken good care of him and his siblings.
