Siheyuan: Banggeng and I are classmates

Hearing Li Haifu ask the question that had been on her mind, Xu Yan sat down next to Li Haifu with a look of surprise.

"You think so, don't you?"

"I've also discovered that since the last time my youngest fell into the water, he has become a completely different person since he woke up. When he's obedient, he's more obedient than anyone else. He does whatever I tell him to do. But as soon as no one is watching, he likes to sneak into the backyard, especially to mess with the old lady in the backyard. Didn't you see how angry he made the deaf old lady yesterday? She almost fainted on the spot."

"I heard from the third aunt that before the incident with Sha Zhu this afternoon, Mu Hua went to the backyard to look for the old lady again. He also shouted to everyone that he was there to apologize. But I don't know what he said, but he made the old lady so angry that she started to scold all the neighbors in the backyard."

Li Fuhai's brows knitted into a "川" shape after hearing this, and he then asked Xu Yan, "What about the doctor? Isn't Mu Hua still in the hospital? What did the doctor say about his condition?"

As Xu Yan listened to Li Fuhai's words, her face was filled with reminiscence.

"Mu Hua was hospitalized because he didn't wake up after falling into the water and was rescued, so the hospital arranged for him to be hospitalized. When Mu Hua woke up, he talked nonsense for a long time, so I went to find a doctor. After the doctor came, he told me that our Mu Hua might have been frightened and asked me to take him back to rest."

Hearing what Xu Yan said, Li Haifu's frown did not relax at all.

"Frightened? Need to rest?" Li Fuhai murmured, and in his mind he couldn't help but match the words "Li Muhua" that he had seen today, trying to piece them together.

But when Li Muhua saw himself in the afternoon, he was so domineering, lively and lawless that he could even threaten Sha Zhu who wanted to beat him just now.

He didn't notice that Li Muhua had any loss of appetite at dinner just now, so how fluent was his toast?

No matter how you look at Li Muhua, he doesn't look like someone who is frightened and needs to rest!

Just as Li Haifu was lost in thought, Xu Yan hurriedly patted Li Haifu's arm and continued, "Oh, there is one more thing. When Mu Hua woke up the next morning after he fell into the water, he said a bunch of nonsense again and made a weird pose on the bed, as if he was worshipping a god."

"I asked him what was going on, and guess what he said?"

Xu Yan asked Li Fuhai to guess. Li Fuhai said angrily, "Just tell me. This is about our son's condition. Do you expect me to guess?"

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Xu Yan's face, and she quickly responded by saying, "Mu Hua told me that he fell into the water, and he was safe thanks to the gods' blessing."

"So I thought that our Yi family should go to Baiyun Temple to worship this weekend. First, it is to fulfill a vow, and second, we can ask the Immortal Lord to bless our family."

Li Fuhai scratched his head after hearing this: "I asked you to talk about our son, what are you talking about?"

"Why worship the Immortal King? If the Immortal King was any use, would the Japanese have been able to attack us back then? Only you believe in these things of praying to gods and Buddhas!"

"If you ask me, we should thank the kindhearted person who rescued our Mu Hua from the river, not the gods!"

Seeing that Li Fuhai disagreed with what she said, Xu Yan felt inexplicably resentful.

"I would like to thank the kindhearted person, but he just sent our Mu Hua to the hospital and left. Where can I go to thank him? Beijing is so big!"

"Besides, this is what our son said. Even if we don't believe it, we can't just ignore it, right? After all, we should go and pay our respects this time, and by the way, pay our respects to Mu Hua, our benefactor. It can be regarded as our token of appreciation!"

Hearing the dissatisfaction in Xu Yan's words, Li Fuhai said with a playful smile: "Pray, our whole family will listen to you. You say where we should pray and we'll go there!"

"Hehe——" After saying that, Li Fuhai bared his big teeth and kept grinning at Xu Yan.

Xu Yan stood up unhappily, looking like he was coaxing a child, and continued to clean up the dishes on the table and said, "I see that you are not listening to me, nor to the Immortal Lord, you are listening to our son."

"What immortal king are you listening to? I don't believe it. Besides, how can a father listen to his son? I will listen to you." Li Fuhai coaxed shamelessly.

Xu Yan looked at Li Haifu's mean look and couldn't help asking, "So what do you think is happening to our son? Does he seem to be frightened?"

When Li Fuhai heard Xu Yan mention Li Muhua's situation again, he straightened his expression slightly.

"What do I mean? We have to listen to the doctor. If the doctor says he was frightened, then he was frightened. Otherwise, it's just like what Old Yan said, my Mu Hua has finally come to his senses."

"If you ask me, this is normal. Look how naughty Qinghua was before he was eleven or twelve. Every time he damaged something in a neighbor's house, he would never admit it. When others came to his house, he would insist that it was Aihua who did it. But after he was eleven or twelve, didn't Qinghua suddenly stop being naughty?"

Xu Yan nodded, agreeing with Li Haifu's statement.

"ah!"

Xu Yan exclaimed and slapped her head fiercely. Li Haifu asked with concern: "What's wrong?"

"I totally forgot that I have to clean up Mu Hua tonight." Xu Yan said, quickly putting down the dishes in her hands. "I have to clean up now. Mu Hua is about to go crazy."

"Shazhu is okay, but the old lady is so old. What if she gets hurt by him?" As she spoke, Xu Yan took off her apron and tucked it under the round table.

Seeing Xu Yan walking out of the house angrily, Li Fuhai hurriedly followed her.

"Bang bang bang!"

In the blink of an eye, there was a knock on the door of the three brothers' room. The two brothers who were still sitting at the long table looked at each other, and then Li Qinghua quickly stood up and trotted to the door.

"Mom, why are you here?" Li Qinghua asked pretending to be ignorant.

Xu Yan ignored him and looked directly at the long table. When she saw that Li Muhua was gone, she looked at the kang and saw that Li Muhua had already buried her head in the quilt, covering herself tightly.

"Muhua, come out quickly. Mom has brought you a midnight snack." Seeing Li Muhua hiding from her, Xu Yan became playful and continued with what she had said in the afternoon to tease Li Muhua.

"Mom, why are you here?" Li Muhua poked her head out from under the quilt, revealing her red face. Then she said weakly:

"I, I feel sick in my stomach, so I won't have the midnight snack. You can give it to my two brothers."

Seeing that Li Muhua was pretending to be sick in a very conscientious manner, Xu Yan sneered in her heart, but walked to the head of Li Muhua's kang with a concerned look on her face.

"Are you really ill?"

"Mom, take a look." Xu Yan put her hand on Li Muhua's forehead and asked in confusion, "It's not hot!"

Li Muhua quickly explained hoarsely: "Mom, I have a stomachache, not a fever."

"Oh!"

Xu Yan nodded in sudden realization. Li Muhua was delighted and raised her head slightly to look at Xu Yan's empty hands and asked, "Mom, didn't you say you were here to bring me some midnight snacks? Where's the midnight snack?"

Seeing this, Xu Yan asked with concern: "Little one, you have a stomachache and can't eat! Why are you asking mom for a midnight snack?"

"If I can't finish it, you can give it to your brothers and sisters. I can watch them eat it." Li Muhua said with a smile, trying her best to look cute.

Aihua and Qinghua behind Xu Yan looked at each other after hearing this, then Aihua quickly stopped Qinghua who was about to speak and motioned him to wait a moment.

"Oh, that's fine! I'll show you then!"

Xu Yan nodded to indicate her agreement, then raised her right hand. Under Li Muhua's gaze, a big hand slowly handed her a belt.

Then Li Qinghua behind Xu Yan shouted again:

"Mom, I'm reporting it. Mu Hua is pretending to have a stomachache. He just wants you to be reluctant to hit him by pretending to have a stomachache."
