At this time, Li Chen silently prayed in his heart that Li Ju would take less.
It seemed like he heard the voice in his heart.
Li Ju simply poured some liquid into each of the two cups she brought, and then said with satisfaction, "That's all I need."
This made Li Chen a little stunned.
Nothing else, because she took too little.
So he quickly said, "Little sister, don't be polite. If it's not enough, just keep taking. I, the third brother, am very generous."
"Really? Little sister, since your third brother has said so, just keep pretending and fill up the cup."
Li Chen's face turned green.
If this is filled up, will there be anything left?
Seeing his expression, Li Ju immediately laughed, "Third brother, this much is enough for me. One cup is for me, and one is for my eldest nephew."
Li Chen breathed a sigh of relief. "Okay, I won't persuade you anymore. If you want to drink, come over. I don't have much, but I can still afford ten or twenty cups."
Now he really doesn't dare to show off.
What if Li Ju believed Li Xu’s lies.
Take all this milk powder away, I have no place to cry...
Li Ju responded, picked up the cup and skipped out.
Li Xu packed up Li Chen's side and left with his hands full.
Seeing him coming into the main room like this, Li Mei hurried forward to meet him.
After putting the things on the table, Li Xu complained, "I should have let you go to share the milk powder with that kid. You don't know how difficult he is. If I hadn't given him more in the end, I probably wouldn't be able to get out now."
Li Mei looked at him with amusement. "Don't you know what kind of person he is? I find it incredible that he gave us half this time. Besides, we each had a cup this morning, so it's only right that he gets a little more."
Li Xu couldn't help but laugh out loud, "It seems that I should just let you go, and I don't have to spend so much effort."
Then he turned to look at Li Ju, "Little sister, you should have taken more just now to make him feel distressed."
"Third brother has already given out half, I can't bear to take more." Li Ju responded.
"Don't bother with him. I get angry when I see him saying one thing and thinking another."
Hearing this, Li Mei was unhappy. "Go away, hurry up and pack your things. How can you teach your children like this?"
Li Xu chuckled and said nothing more. He picked up the dishes and other items and walked towards the kitchen.
In the afternoon, several people were still chatting in front of the brazier.
night.
After Li Jiakang and the other two arrived home, Li Mei told them what had happened.
The three of them sighed, "The sun is really rising from the west."
They also each made a cup of milk powder, saying that they wanted to feel Li Chen's intentions.
During the meal, Li Xu poured more wine for Li Jiakang as agreed.
It's just not a coincidence today.
It was actually discovered by Sun Xiu.
She stared at Li Jiakang's wine glass and said, "I don't think this is just one or two ounces, is it?"
Li Jiakang picked up the wine glass and looked at it non-stop, muttering, "This doesn't look like one or two taels? I think it's about the same."
"Don't play tricks on me. This wine of yours weighs at least one or two taels of silver. Can't you tell?" Sun Xiu said unhappily.
They drank almost every day during this period.
Others may not be practiced.
But the amount of liquor in the glass is quite accurate...
So she didn't believe at all that Li Jiakang didn't notice it.
Li Jiakang also knew that Sun Xiu didn't trust him, so he decisively begged for mercy, "Xiu'er, it's just that the second brother didn't take it seriously and poured a lot, so let it go."
"No, if you say one or two ounces, then it's one or two ounces."
After saying that, Sun Xiu reached out and took Li Jiakang's cup, and slowly poured the white wine in it into his own cup.
He didn't give it to him until he estimated that there was only about one or two ounces of wine left.
Then he said to Li Xu, "Xiao Xu, you're not very sure about this. From now on, I will be the one pouring your father's wine."
"Okay, I'll practice more." Li Xu agreed readily.
Hearing this, Li Jiakang sighed continuously.
He knew that Li Xu was not to blame, so he could only consider himself unlucky.
Li Ping and others shook their heads secretly when they saw him like this.
I thought it was all my own fault.
Early the next morning.
After finishing his housework, Li Xu strolled towards the office.
When I arrived at the gate, I saw Uncle Xu walking around wrapped up tightly.
As if this would make it warmer.
"Uncle Xu, good morning."
Uncle Xu stopped when he heard the familiar voice.
After turning around and seeing Li Xu, he hurried over and said, "You little brat, you didn't even come to see me and chat with me during all these days off. Did you forget about me?"
"That's right. I can forget anyone but you. Besides, I'm here now. I'll talk to you as long as you want today." Li Xu said with a smile.
Uncle Xu came up to Li Xu, patted his shoulder, and said unhappily, "You kid, you're just sweet-talking. If you hadn't come to collect your salary today, I probably wouldn't see you until the New Year."
"That's not possible. It was too cold the past two days, so I didn't go out. The weather is much better today. Even if I don't come to collect my salary, I will come and chat with you."
"Come on, how could I not know you?"
Although he said he didn't believe it, Uncle Xu looked very happy.
Li Xu asked, "Uncle Xu, is there anything new these days? Tell me about it."
"You know what, there really is one."
Li Xu cheered up.
He had just asked casually, but he hadn't expected it to be true, so he hurriedly urged, "Tell me quickly."
"On the night of the Little New Year, Xiao Jianping from your motorcade was chased and beaten by his parents. Later, while trying to escape, Xiao Jianping accidentally fell and broke his left arm."
Li Xu was stunned. "Uncle Xu, are you telling the truth?"
"Nonsense, this matter has spread all over the supply and marketing cooperative." Then he looked at Li Xu with a strange look, "Do you know why he was beaten?"
"have no idea."
"Speaking of which, this matter has something to do with you two, Master and Disciple."
"Who told you this unreliable news?" Li Xu was a little amused. "I went back home after buying supplies that day. I haven't seen him since then. How could he be related to me?"
Uncle Xu waved his hand and said, "Don't rush to deny it. I've checked it out, and the news is correct."
"Um?"
This time Li Xu was really stunned.
How is this involved?
Uncle Xu didn't keep the secret and said directly, "I heard that morning that Xiao Jianping wanted to introduce your sister to someone, and your master also told him to go back and ask his family what they thought about this matter. Is this true?"
Li Xu: ...
Thinking back carefully, this is indeed the case.
But how did you know?
And you know it so clearly?
Hearing the question, Uncle Xu chuckled and said, "This is from Su Weidong's family."
