So when Hua Xiao and Hua Shi were cutting the size together, Hua Xiao suggested making it bigger, but Hua Shi said that it would be comfortable and warm if it fit well.
Hua Xiao couldn't win over her, so he made it just the right size.
As he was speaking, Xiao Huaying walked out slowly from the other side of the room. She was also wearing a new light blue dress, the same color and style as the one Hua Li was wearing.
Hua Xiao glared: "Xiaoying, why are you wearing new clothes too!"
Hua Li turned her head and said without hesitation, "I put it on him."
Hua Shi raised his hand to stop the two from arguing: "Just wear it, it's okay. Believe me."
Hua Xiao paused and looked at Hua Shi.
Hua Shi gave him a reassuring look and said slowly, "Xiao Xiao, you should also put on new clothes. It's so cold outside, and you're wearing so little. You won't be back from worshipping the mountain god until the evening. You'll be freezing all day. Don't get sick by then."
After Hua Shi's persuasion, Hua Xiao returned to the house with a nervous mood and prepared to change into new clothes.
Hua Li wiped away the tears that had just come out of her anxiety and looked at Hua Shi with bright eyes.
"Where is your second brother?" Hua Shi looked around but did not see Hua Yu.
Hua Li said, "My second brother went out early in the morning, and grandma and dad also went out just now."
He was waiting for grandma and the others to leave before he dared to come out wearing new clothes, otherwise he wouldn't have waited until now...
Hua Shi looked at his clever little appearance, shook her head in amusement, then lowered her head to look at the little flower shadow who had been staring at her eagerly.
Seeing that she was finally willing to give him a look, the little guy raised his little hand and said incoherently: "Hungry!"
Over the past month, Xiao Huaying has developed the habit of going to Huashi when she's hungry...
"I knew you were going to say that. Here, one for each of you."
Hua Shi said as he took out the pancakes that had been heated up early in the morning from the bamboo basket and stuffed one into Xiao Huaying's hand. Then he took two for Hua Li and said, "Give one to your second brother as well. When you go out to look after him, just give it to him."
Hua Li took it, touched the still hot crust, and asked curiously, "What if I wasn't watching my second brother?"
He didn't ask this on purpose, because at this time of year in previous years, the village lobby was packed with people, with people pushing each other, and once they got separated, it was difficult to find each other again.
Hua Shi paused and said, "If you still don't see it by noon, you can eat it by yourself."
The thin crust is filled with thick cooked meat and soup. When you take a bite, the soup will flow into your mouth impatiently.
After Xiao Huaying got the meat pie, he couldn't wait to eat it. There was still some hot soup, and when it touched his lips and tongue, it burned him so much that he gasped, but he was reluctant to stop eating.
"Eat slowly, don't choke."
Hua Shi listened to the little guy's gasping sound and reminded him helplessly.
It has been so long, but Xiao Huaying still can't change her bad habit. Whenever she eats something delicious, she just keeps stuffing it into her mouth without thinking.
If Hua Shi hadn't been keeping an eye on him every time, she wouldn't have dared to give him food that was too hot. For a little guy who was still young and had no self-control, who knows how much trouble would have been caused.
Suddenly, a boy's clear voice was heard from outside the courtyard gate. Judging from the voice, he should be young.
"Hua Li? Hua Li! It's almost dawn, why are you still at home? Aren't you always the first one to go out?"
The voice contained Hua Li's name and peeked in. At a glance, he saw Hua Li in the main hall opposite the courtyard gate.
Hua Li was concentrating on chewing on a meat pie when he suddenly heard a familiar voice from his friend and turned around to look.
"Xie Wanyuan? Are you back from the academy?"
Hua Li swallowed a mouthful of the soft and fragrant pancake crust, not caring how delicious the meat pie was, and hurriedly exclaimed in surprise.
The boy with his head tucked in looked about the same age as Hua Li, around nine or ten years old. He still had a hint of baby fat on his fair and tender face, and he looked over with his round eyes.
Seeing that there were no one in the yard, Xie Wanyuan walked in from the doorway and said, "Yes! I just saw your grandma go out. I didn't see you, so I ran over to look for you!"
He walked a little closer and saw Hua Shi standing in the dark corner of the main hall. He suddenly stopped and stood in the middle of the yard, neither knowing whether to go forward or backward, standing there awkwardly.
Hua Li didn't notice that his friend's expression was strange. He stuffed the meat pie into his mouth in a few bites, then wrapped the meat pie for his second brother in a clean white cloth and held it in his hand.
He turned his head to look at Hua Shi, swallowed the meat pie in his mouth in two or three bites, and said, "Then I'll go first. I hope everything is fine."
Hua Shi nodded, indicating that he could leave first.
Hua Li looked at his younger brother, who was munching on a meat pie, and asked, "Xiaoying, do you want to go with Fourth Brother?"
Xie Wanyuan, who was standing in the yard, heard Hua Li's words and thought that he was going to take his younger brother with him, so he immediately made faces.
He doesn't want to have to take care of the baby while he's having fun...
Xiao Huaying was busy with her illness and didn't hear what Hua Li said at all, so she naturally ignored it.
Hua Li thought he was unwilling, so she stopped asking and trotted out of the main room and walked towards the yard.
When Xie Wanyuan saw Hua Li, his eyes suddenly lit up, and a dimple appeared on his chubby little face. He smiled and called out, "Hua Li!"
When Hua Li ran over, Xie Wanyuan reached out and grabbed Hua Li's wrist, and without saying a word, he pulled her out of the yard.
Hua Li followed his force and walked out, and the two small figures soon ran out of sight.
