Upon hearing this, Li Chen was stunned for a moment and stammered, "Sister, are you telling the truth?"
Li Mei sneered, "Do you think I'm like you, telling lies like that? Did you ask me to give it to my little sister? You're such a jerk, and you're even using it to cheat for candy. You're such a loser."
Li Xu also said, "Don't I usually give you candy?"
"I gave it to you."
"Since you've given it to me, why do you still need to cheat my little sister out of it?"
Li Chen whispered, "I don't have enough to eat."
Everyone: ...
You have to say that this kid is really nice.
He thought that the Li Mei sisters drank the sweet soup at home, and was afraid that other people in the family would find out and beat and scold them, so he did not complain.
But it doesn't mean much.
He even used the idea of drinking sugar to make water to trick Li Ju into giving him milk candy...
Although Li Ju was young, she was sensible. When she heard this, her face wrinkled up, her eyes widened, and she said angrily, "Third brother, you are so mean. I will never play with you again."
Li Chen smiled awkwardly and took out a few more candies from his pocket and handed them over, "Little sister, please don't, these are your candies."
Li Ju took it and counted it, "There's still one missing. What about the previous ones?"
"I've eaten it all. I'll pay it back slowly later."
Li Ju snorted and turned her head away without even looking at him.
Li Xu smiled, "Hey, tell me, how many times have you lied to me?"
Li Chen scratched his head, "Three or four times."
Li Jiakang was furious. "You bastard, you dare to steal your sister's things? I think you are itching to do something again."
After saying that, he walked up and kicked Li Chen in the butt.
Li Chen didn't react in time and staggered forward several times after being kicked.
Then he bumped into Hu Guilan.
Hu Guilan also flashed.
Fortunately, Li Ping pulled him back.
This scared everyone.
He hurried forward to ask Hu Guilan if she felt unwell.
Hu Guilan's face turned pale. She sat on a stool and touched her stomach with her hand. After feeling it for a long time, she forced a smile and said, "It's okay. There's nothing wrong."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good, that's good. If you feel uncomfortable, just tell us."
Hu Guilan nodded.
Then Li Mei poured her a cup of sugar water and handed it to her.
Hu Guilan did not refuse and took a big sip.
Although she didn't feel anything wrong, she still needed to supplement some nutrition to feel at ease.
Now she can be said to be the protected figure of the Li family. She is specially authorized to drink any sweet soup or other things in the family whenever she wants, and she cannot eat less at all.
Sun Xiu also glared at Li Jiakang fiercely, "Can't you use your hands? If anything happens to Guilan, I will never forgive you."
Li Jiakang said awkwardly, "Well, it's my fault. I didn't pay attention."
Then his expression changed, and he looked at Li Chen fiercely, "You bastard, if anything happens to your sister-in-law, I will beat you to death."
Li Chen was confused, "Dad, you kicked me so suddenly."
"You dare to talk back?" As soon as he finished speaking, Li Jiakang walked up to Li Chen and started spanking him on the butt.
Li Chen immediately burst into tears.
Hu Guilan continued to persuade him, "Dad, please don't hit Xiaochen. This is none of his fault. I didn't stand firm."
Sun Xiu stopped her, "Gui Lan, stop trying to persuade me. It's time to teach this kid a lesson. He even dared to lie to his own family."
Li Mei and the others all agreed.
Li Xu sneered, "As the old saying goes, a young tree won't grow straight unless it's pruned. If you don't take good care of it, it will dare to climb up the roof and tear down the tiles tomorrow."
Just talking was not enough. Li Xu stepped forward and said to Li Jiakang, "Dad, you take a break. I'll do it."
Li Jiakang nodded and walked away. Then Li Xu began "Education of Love."
Li Chen howled in pain, "Brother, brother, I was wrong, I was wrong, please be gentler."
Li Xu ignored him and beat him hard for a while, stopping only when he felt his anger had subsided.
Then Li Chen on the side covered his butt and made a "hiss, hiss" sound with his mouth.
The tears on my face stopped instantly.
Li Jiakang said to him, "Will you dare to lie to others again?"
Li Chen shook his head like a rattle, "I won't dare to do it again. Never again."
Everyone nodded in satisfaction.
Then Li Xu thought about it, went back to his room, and took out two cans of milk powder from the space.
During this period, he signed for a few more cans. It was not a good idea to keep them unfinished, so he took some out to give to Hu Guilan for nourishment.
Well, I might as well try it myself to see what it tastes like.
Everyone was stunned when they saw Li Xu holding two iron cans.
Li Mei asked, "Xiao Xu, what are you doing?"
"Milk powder, I got it last night, everyone try it."
After saying that, he opened a can, which made everyone feel sad.
Li Jiakang said angrily, "Why are you drinking milk powder? Don't you know to save it for your eldest brother's child?"
Li Xu waved his hand. "Dad, you don't have to worry about that. There will definitely be enough milk powder by then. Besides, although my sister-in-law eats a lot of rice, rice alone is not nutritious and is not good for the child. And what happened just now, who among us is not afraid? If the child can get more supplements, we can feel more at ease."
Hu Guilan quickly said, "Xiao Xu, don't we have brown sugar? That's nutritious."
"How can brown sugar compare to this?" He handed the unopened can to Li Ping and said, "Brother, keep this for your sister-in-law. Drink one cup every day."
Li Ping took it and said, "As the eldest brother, I won't be polite."
Li Xu laughed and said, "Why be polite? Okay, it's our turn next."
Hearing Li Xu say this, everyone's faces showed anticipation.
No one present has ever drunk this thing.
Even though Li Xu got several cans, he was reluctant to drink them before.
Now that I realize the check-in rate of this thing is not low, I am willing to take out two cans.
Li Chen also came over with a shy smile, "Second brother, can you give me a drink?"
Li Xu glanced at him and said unhappily, "Yes."
"Thank you, second brother." Li Chen was overjoyed after getting the reply, and licked his lips after saying it.
After the milk powder was prepared, others were still commenting on it.
Li Xu was the first to pick up the cup and take a sip.
He smacked his lips and said, "Not bad, it tastes quite good."
He felt that the taste was richer and slightly sweeter than the milk powder of later generations.
It suits his sweet taste.
Hearing this, everyone took a tentative sip.
Then they all showed an expression of endless aftertaste.
Li Xu was stunned.
Except for Li Xu, everyone else took a long time to finish a glass.
After drinking it, he poured some water and drank the remaining water in the cup.
It really does not waste anything.
