Unexpectedly, things went unexpectedly smoothly.
This price was far lower than Li Xu's psychological expectations.
Thinking of this, he reached out and touched Li Chen's head again, and said kindly, "Then it's settled. I'll give you the things tomorrow, and we'll still be brothers in the future."
"Brotherly friendship and respect? What does that mean?"
Li Xu: ...
"It's just that we respect and love each other. Okay, I've finished my story. Dad also has something to tell you."
After saying that, Li Xu stood up and stretched.
Li Chen looked at Li Jiakang with a puzzled look on his face. "Dad, you treated me so cruelly, don't you want to compensate me with something?"
Seems questionable.
In fact, I hope that Li Jiakang can also give something as compensation.
Li Jiakang could naturally understand what he meant.
So he said angrily, "What good things are you thinking? Isn't what your second brother gave you enough? Besides, you were going to get beaten up sooner or later. I just drank too much tonight and didn't control my strength well."
After a pause, he continued, "Now your mother has made a rule that from now on I can only drink one or two glasses of wine per meal. During this period, you don't have to do housework. Leave it to your second brother."
Li Xu agreed, "I made a mistake this time, and doing housework is my mother's punishment for me."
"This punishment is too light. I had to do housework even when I didn't do anything wrong before." Li Chen groaned.
"How dare you say that? You don't even know if you made a mistake or not." Li Xu chuckled and said to Li Jiakang, "Dad, don't delay. Let's get down to business."
Li Jiakang grumbled, "Third Brother, I'm sorry. I apologize. I shouldn't have called you a coward."
Li Chen felt that he hadn't heard clearly, so he scratched his ears with his hands, "Dad, what are you talking about?"
Although it was a little difficult the first time, it was much easier the second time.
Li Jiakang repeated what he had just said very fluently.
This made Li Chen stunned.
After I realized what was happening, I said "It's okay" several times.
Although he was indeed unhappy about Li Jiakang scolding him before.
But after hearing the apology, the dissatisfaction in my heart disappeared without a trace in an instant.
See that everything is resolved smoothly.
The two returned to the main room and chatted with others for a few more words before extinguishing the brazier and returning to their rooms to rest.
the next day.
The weather is still cold.
Li Xu did not sleep in again, but got up early.
Then he helped Li Chen, who had already woken up, to finish washing up.
She was so thoughtful as to offer him a portion during breakfast.
Then I started doing housework.
After everything was cleaned up, he sat in front of the brazier with a cup of water and started chatting with others.
After ten o'clock, Li Xu got up and walked out.
Not long after, he came back carrying a bag.
She went straight to Li Chen's bed, took out the things in the bag one by one, and placed them on the cabinet next to her. "This is what I promised you."
Seeing these things, Li Chen was so happy that he almost lost his sight and hurriedly urged, "Second brother, hurry up and bring me a box of cakes and make me a cup of milk powder."
To be honest.
At this moment, Li Xu really wanted to beat him up.
But after all, I was in the wrong, so after thinking about it, I decided to just forget it.
I handed him a box of pastries and walked out with the milk powder.
When he was about to go out, a voice came from behind him, "Second brother, wait."
Turning around, Li Xu asked unhappily, "Do you have anything else to explain?"
Li Chen smiled awkwardly and then asked, "I just wanted to ask how many cans of milk powder you brought back this time."
"How many more cans? You really don't take this thing seriously. You're lucky to have just this one can."
He used to have quite a bit of stock.
But there really isn't much left now.
Because there are now two big milk drinkers who need his supply.
One is my goddaughter Xu Fuyou.
The other is Li Qiang’s son Li Zeming.
Qin Hua's health was still too weak, and she ran out of milk soon after giving birth, and had to rely entirely on milk powder to feed the child.
To be honest, if the system wasn't so generous now, the amount of milk powder I'd get would start at five cans each time.
He really didn't want to give Li Chen a can...
After hearing his words, Li Chen was silent for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "We haven't had milk powder at home for a while. Give half of this can to everyone. I won't give you any cakes. You still have a lot left."
Li Xu looked at him in surprise.
Some people didn't expect that this was something he could say.
On second thought, I felt very relieved.
Although Li Chen is greedy, he still has his family in his heart.
So he nodded, his tone becoming kinder, "Okay, I'll tell them later."
After saying that, he walked straight out.
Arriving at the main hall, Li Xu asked, "I'm going to make some milk powder for the third child later. Do you want some? If you do, I'll make some for you."
"Xiaoxu, you brought back two cans of milk powder this time?" Hu Guilan was a little surprised.
"No, the third brother said he would give us half of his can of milk powder."
Hu Guilan and Li Mei exchanged a look of surprise, and then Li Mei asked, "Why is the Third Brother so generous? Did you say something to him?"
Li Xu shook his head and explained, "He took the initiative to bring it up. He said that our family hasn't had milk powder for a while, so he's giving half to everyone, but he won't give any cakes."
After hearing the explanation, both of them felt relieved.
"I really didn't realize that the Third Brother could still think of us at this time."
Hearing Li Mei's sigh, Hu Guilan immediately laughed, "Don't say that, Xiaochen is a good child."
Li Xu asked again, "Do you want to drink now? If I don't send it to him, he will probably get anxious."
"Drink it, Xiaoju's mouth is watering just watching this."
Li Ju's little face turned red instantly, "Sister, don't talk nonsense, I didn't."
"So are you going to drink it or not?"
Li Ju said in a very soft voice, "Drink."
Li Xu and his companions burst into laughter.
Handing the prepared milk powder to Li Chen, Li Xu said, "Put the cup on the cabinet after you finish drinking it. I'll come over to clean up at noon."
"Um."
Li Chen brought the cup to his mouth and suddenly stopped and asked, "Have you distributed your half of the milk powder?"
"No points. If we want to drink, just come and get it."
Li Chen suddenly became anxious, his voice raised a lot, "No, we have to pack them separately, otherwise what if they get messed up?"
Good boy.
Are you worried that there will be too many of us and more than half of us will drink?
Li Xu looked at him in feigned anger, "Are you worried that we'll drink too much? We're a family, don't you even have this little bit of trust?"
Li Chen didn't know how to respond, so he just kept saying, "I don't care, just go separate them."
"You look so anxious." Li Xu looked at him with amusement, "Don't worry, I won't give you more. The jars are a little dirty. My elder sister should be cleaning them now. I'll divide them for you later."
