Forced to raise

Knowing that Xiaohu's family is going to dig a swimming pool, Yu Ming wants to go and have a look. He can also help with planning. For example, the swimming pool can be dug in the backyard near the wall. There is a big ginkgo tree there, and you can enjoy the shade. , the most important thing is that that location is only one wall away from Yu Ming's house, and when he wants to go swimming, he can just move a ladder.

"Why don't you dig in your house?" Xiaohu was obviously very happy when he heard Yu Ming's idea.

"A fortune teller said that my grandma never even went to the river when she hit the water." So his family couldn't dig a swimming pool, so Yu Ming got up and began to get dressed.

When they came out, Ren Ze and Yu Ming's father were chatting happily. Both of them are well-rounded characters, one intends to make friends, the other intends to make friends, and they chat very vigorously no matter what the topic is.

Seeing them coming out, Ren Ze immediately got up and said goodbye. When they came out, Yu Ming's father also packed a bagful of grapes for them to take away, bunches of agate-like, authentic 'rose fragrance'.

With Yu Ming as the local snake leading the way, it was much easier for Xiaohu and the others to go shopping. They went to the market and bought some picked wild vegetables, a few catties of pork belly, and some shiitake mushrooms. They were going to make dumplings when they went back.Over the years, Xiaohu has learned a good cooking skill, and he especially likes to eat dumplings. He used to make some dumplings every now and then and put them in the refrigerator. When Ren Ze came back to pick him up, he would cook them and eat them.

Xiaohu asked Ren Ze to carry the vegetables he had bought, and went to buy underwear with Ren Ze. When he got home, he saw an old lady and a little girl standing at the door.

Xiaohu glanced at Li Lu who was wearing a snow-white princess dress, and turned his head to look at Yu Ming. When Yu Ming said it, he thought Yu Ming was exaggerating. Now——Yu Ming, your mouth is like a crow's mouth.

Yu Ming pouted directly at Xiaohu.

"Oh, I've been waiting for you for a long time? I said, you are the parent of that child, right? How did you educate your child? You are so young and have such a vicious heart, you actually pushed my granddaughter into the river?!"

The old lady is wearing a plain short-sleeved antique Tang suit, her face is a bit old, but the buckle is exquisite, the fabric is smooth, and there are dark lines, it looks very valuable, and a pair of embroidered handmade cloth shoes are in the shape of an awl , the size of the entire foot is not as big as Xiaohu's palm, obviously she has a pair of small feet.

The whole person is also dressed as if returning to the old society. The white hair is fixed with a green hairpin, and there is a deep gully on his face, but he doesn't show any kindness. Instead, he points at Ren Ze and glares at Xiaohu. The emerald green jade bracelet shook so that people's eyes hurt.

Both Xiaohu and Ren Ze were stunned. When Ren Ze heard "Push into the river", he looked at the little girl behind and knew what was going on. Before he had time to say anything, Xiaohu couldn't help but said, "I didn't Push her into the river..."

"It's useless to explain, they just came to find fault on purpose." Yu Ming pulled Xiaohu, stepped over them and stood in front, and said very calmly, "I pushed Li Lu into the river, who made Li Lu so cheeky?" Thick, she actually peeked at me peeing, just peeked at me, and attacked me from behind, maybe she wanted to look at the front, she pushed me from behind, I dragged her, the two of us went to the river together took a bath."

"..." Mrs. Li didn't expect the facts to distort Yu Ming into this way. If word spreads, her granddaughter will still be a human being.

Mrs. Li hesitated for a moment. The town has always been xenophobic. Even if she and Ren Ze and the others got into a fight, no one helped her. She just wanted to vent her anger on her granddaughter, but he didn't expect that Yu Ming was here. The town is originally a big family with great influence, bullying outsiders is two different things from bullying Yu Ming's family.

Moreover, this person doesn't look like a powerless commoner, Mrs. Li looked at Ren Ze.

Seeing that Mrs. Li didn't make any moves, Xiaohu hurriedly dragged Ren Ze in. Seeing that they were about to go in, Mrs. Li hurried forward and grabbed Xiaohu's arm. The old lady is really unreasonable, maybe he will move, and the old lady will lie down on the ground.

When the time comes, it's not his fault but also his fault.

Xiaohu has not seen such tricks before.

Seeing that they stopped, Mrs. Li felt relieved. She was about to say something when she suddenly felt a pain in her ribs and her hands seemed to be cramped. She couldn't help but let go of Xiaohu and looked at Ren Ze angrily, " What did you do to me? Your child beat my granddaughter, can you still be reasonable? Now, you still want to do something to my old bones. "

Ren Ze put away his finger that had tapped on the old lady, he was too lazy to deal with this kind of rambunctious old lady, he couldn't reason, touch, or move.

He pulled Xiaohu to get him behind him, but Xiaohu didn't move. If necessary, he didn't mind being charged with 'beating' the old man. Anyway, Ren Ze might get him out and avenge him, but Ren Ze is different. Ren Ze is a soldier. It is impossible for Ren Ze to do anything to the old lady. Even if he is falsely accused, Ren Ze cannot be falsely accused. Ren Ze must have a good reputation.

Seeing through Xiaohu's thoughts, Ren Ze couldn't laugh or cry, he is not a vegetarian, if he wants to teach someone a lesson, even if he does something to this old lady now, he can guarantee that even if he goes to any place and does any inspection, he will not find any scars.

Ren Ze was blocked by Xiaohu, and took a look at Mrs. Li. At that glance, Mrs. Li took a step back, but paused, like a little daughter-in-law being bullied by a bully, and pulled Li Lu over. , "Push my good granddaughter into a quarrel without even an apology? How dare you speak loudly at me, an old woman? Are you still unreasonable?"

"Reasonable? Turn left to the police station, or else let's go somewhere to be reasonable."

Mrs. Li herself is here to make trouble, and she can turn upside down if she is justified, and she can mess around if she is unreasonable. She was about to say something, but Li Lu who was next to her suddenly pulled her, "Grandma, how can you be unreasonable? I I've said it all, I accidentally fell into the river, or this brother saved me!"

Turning his head, he said to Ren Ze and the others, "I'm sorry, my grandma is getting old and loves me very much. When I heard that I fell into the river, I became anxious. My grandma and I came to thank this... Brother, thank you for saving me. me."

Li Lu smiled sweetly at Xiaohu, revealing two dimples.

Xiaohu looked at this sweet little girl and acted like a fool, completely dumbfounded.

At this time, the little girl had already introduced herself to Xiaohu, and stretched out her hand to Xiaohu, "My name is Li Lu, thank you for saving me yesterday, what's your name?"

"My name is Xiaohu." Xiaohu said reflexively, and then frowned.

Li Lu was happy when she knew the answer, "This is my grandma." After finishing speaking, she went to see Ren Ze, obviously waiting for Xiaohu to introduce Ren Ze to her.

Everyone, including Mrs. Li, was confused by Li Lu, and Mrs. Li was especially puzzled. If Li Lu hadn't been crying and clamoring for revenge, she wouldn't have come here to cause trouble.

Only Yu Ming could see what was going on, Li Lu, a yellow-haired girl, had obviously taken a fancy to Ren Ze, her eyes were almost shining when she looked at Ren Ze.

Xiaohu still doesn't know what love is, but he also saw something wrong from Li Lu's eyes looking at Ren Ze, which made him wonder why he was so angry. He stared at Ren Ze in a daze Li Lu suddenly pulled Ren Ze away, "Brother, let's go in."

Li Lu looked at the back of them leaving, her eyes became gloomy, and she couldn't help pulling Yu Ming back, "Yu Ming, what's the name of Xiaohu's brother?"

The old lady Li next to her also came to her senses, "That's right, Yu Ming, what is the identity of that gentleman? I don't think he looks like an ordinary person?"

Ordinary people don't seem to be able to buy such a big house. I heard that they don't live there for a few days a year, so it's just vacant. "Is that gentleman from the city?"

Yu Ming was only a step slower, but was held back by Li Lu. At this moment, he saw that the old lady Li and Li Lu were whimsical here, and couldn't help mocking, "Li Lu, how old are you? You just learn Okay?" Not to mention how old Li Lu is, she is still a little girl, but she actually wants to find a man, and she has a serious crush on Ren Ze.

Sure enough, a dragon begets a dragon and a phoenix begets a phoenix, and that pair of parents can't produce any good daughters.

……

……

At noon, Xiaohu was busy in the kitchen for an hour. He made noodles, Ren Ze chopped meat, Jiang Yan cut vegetables, Xiao Qinghe was going to copy some dishes, Xiaohu also called Mama Zhang and the others, Mama Zhang was a The traditional woman, after bringing Zhang Xiaolong and Zhang Xiaoyun over, drove the big men out of the kitchen, and stayed in the kitchen with Xiaoyun.

Xiaohu saw that the dumplings were almost finished, and there was only a little left, so he didn't insist.

Xiaohu prepared well, with a large amount, and prepared two kinds of fillings. Zhang's mother cooked the dumplings and put them on a big plate, "Xiaohu, what kind of stuffing does Ren Ze like to eat?"

"Mushrooms." Xiaohu replied, and began to help Mama Zhang take out the dumplings.

"You two have the same taste." While talking, when Xiaohu turned around, Zhang's mother inadvertently looked at Xiaohu's neckline. Strangely enough, I immediately brought toilet water, thinking of a little tiger to smear some on it.

"Mom, no need." Xiaohu blushed for a moment. Did he know what the red spots on his body were? They were bitten by mosquitoes. It was clearly bitten by Ren Ze. He quickly grabbed his clothes to prevent Mama Zhang from taking them off. He snatched toilet water from Zhang's mother, "Mom, I wiped it myself."

"I think you have a little spot on your back, you can't reach it." Zhang's mother was not polite to her son, she reached out and opened Xiaohu's T-shirt, and found a blue pinch mark on Xiaohu's waist .

"Mom, what are you doing? How old am I?" Xiaohu hurriedly put down his T-shirt, looking a little flustered.

As if thinking of something to die, Zhang's mother turned pale, pulled Xiaohu aside, and said, "Xiaohu, did Ren Ze bully you?"

Bully?Xiaohu's face turned pale, "Mom, what are you talking about?"

Zhang's mother became even more nervous, pointing to the finger marks on his waist and said, "Then who made this?" It was clearly pinched, and the finger marks were still there.

Xiaohu was afraid because he was afraid that Zhang's mother would know what he and Ren Ze had done. Seeing that Zhang's mother's "bullying" meant that Ren Ze beat him, he immediately felt relieved. He rolled his eyes and pushed Li Lu directly. He told Li Lu about yesterday and today, and said, "Mom, my brother treats me well, so he didn't bully me."

Mother Zhang nodded in satisfaction, and asked Xiaohu, "You should stay away from those unreasonable people, and those old ladies, if you hurt a little, they will rely on you for the rest of their lives."

Xiaohu nodded.

Xiaohu's words brought back unpleasant memories for Zhang's mother. Ever since she stepped into this kind of city, she had been worried. She knew that it was safe in this small town, but she was always worried.

Xiaohu thought of Li Lu, and for some reason, his mood became bad.

……

……

In the next few days, it seems that Xiaohu's premonition has come true. Li Lu will report every day. I don't know where I know Ren Ze's name. The small cakes I made, I said I made them myself, I can give them a taste, after seeing that Ren Ze is not interested in her cakes, next time I brought handmade chocolates, and then jelly.

Mrs. Li also came here a few times. After receiving lukewarm treatment here, she also knew that she was not welcome, so she stopped coming.

However, Li Lu was obviously not influenced by Mrs. Li, and continued to harass them.

Xiaohu couldn't bear it anymore, and unceremoniously went to Li Lu to say that she was not welcome, but Li Lu didn't seem to be affected at all. Afterwards, Xiaohu directly proposed to Ren Ze to lock the door when Li Lu came.

However, Ren Ze's attitude made Xiaohu angry, he actually helped Li Lu instead of him!

Ren Ze soon suffered retribution. After the pond at their house was dug, Li Lu took a bathing suit and wanted to borrow their swimming pool.

Ren Ze probably didn't expect Li Lu to be so 'bold and uninhibited'. Seeing Xiao Hu happily rolling on the sofa, his face immediately turned black.

Xiaohu told Yu Ming this as a joke, "Tell me, what's going on with Li Lu?"

"He fell in love with your brother." Yu Ming buried his head in reviewing his homework, looked at Xiaohu happily drinking soda beside him, a little jealous, and answered without thinking, thinking of making Xiaohu feel uncomfortable.

Xiaohu felt that his soda wasn't that tasty, so he frowned, "Isn't it? Li Lu is still a little girl? How old is she now? Isn't this too precocious?"

Yu Ming snorted directly at Xiaohu, "Can precocity be as precocious as you? You are allowed to fall in love early, and others are not allowed to fall in love early?" The last time Xiaohu asked him about love affairs, he still remembered it and had to, He was a little jealous.

Xiaohu didn't mind either, and continued to discuss this issue with Yu Ming, "But Li Lu and my brother are too old, right?" Doesn't she think Ren Ze is old?

Xiaohu doesn't dislike Mr. Ren Ze, but imagine finding a girlfriend who is six or seven years older than him? !Li Lu, what kind of aesthetics is this?And by the time they can get married, Ren Ze will be almost thirty.

No, Ren Ze didn't like Li Lu.

"Age is not the difference when it comes to love. Her mother can snatch other people's husbands. Li Lu still cares that your brother is older than him."

How much? "

Yu Ming reminded Xiaohu from the side, and said more clearly, "Besides, Li Lu is young, it is good for you. Think about it, your brother is already 24, and he already has girlfriends at this age. We will get married after a few years of dating. Well, when the time comes... tsk tsk, what can you do? Your brother can't take you to marry a wife? Li Lu is different, although she is not very good, but she is young, If she becomes your brother's girlfriend and wants to get married, you will have to wait five or six years sooner or later. By then, you will be old. If you take a step back, your brother will not marry her as his wife in the future, and let Li Lu delay your brother for a few years. The year is also good."

The painstaking efforts that Yu Ming said were all for Xiaohu's sake. If it wasn't for the fear that Xiaohu would hit him, he would have wanted Xiaohu to prepare for his escape as soon as he had the big tree Ren Ze by his side.

Thinking about the future, Yu Ming said, "Do you have any money now? I heard that Huanan Road seems to be demolished? If you have money, you can invest some money there, buy a slightly bigger house, and wait for the demolition." , How many sets of buildings can you change?"

When it comes to making money, Li Lu is immediately thrown aside by Xiaohu, "Demolition? Will it really be demolished?" Xiaohu has no money, but Zhang's mother does. Zhang's mother is thinking about what business to do these days. If Yu Ming's news is Really, investing in this is better than anywhere else.

"Then when will it be demolished?" The section of Huanan Road will be demolished sooner or later, but early demolition and late demolition are two different things.

"Anyway, the news I heard is that it will be demolished by the end of this year." Yu Ming put down his pen, spread his hands at Xiaohu, thought for a while, and added, "However, there is no [-]% guaranteed speculation."

This kind of behavior of Yu Ming and the others is speculative, but there is no risk, this kind of thing is like the wind, no one knows if it will turn halfway, and it can be done with a [-]% certainty.

"Your luck has never been very good. You lost so much by playing stocks." For that period of time, Xiaohu had lingering fears. The money he lost at that time was not his. The money he got was not much, if he lost it, Xiaohu would really vomit blood.

Yu Ming rolled his eyes, "Don't say I didn't remind you, before the news leaks out, act quickly, and when everyone knows, it will be too late for you to do it."

"Let me think about it." Xiaohu quite believed Yu Ming's inside information, but Yu Ming, his luck is really bad, he was hesitating, suddenly someone shouted at the door of the classroom, "Zhang Xiaohu ,Someone looking for you."

The two looked back, and there was a beautiful little girl with a ponytail standing at the door of the classroom, and the little girl greeted Xiaohu at the door.

Yu Ming was overjoyed when he saw it. He looked at Xiaohu's bitter face, and the depression that Xiaohu didn't trust just now flew away. It was the first time he was so happy to see Li Lu.

Seeing that Li Lu had a tendency to run into the classroom, Xiaohu hurried out, and came back shortly after, bringing back a small white envelope, of course it was not for him, but for Ren Ze.

So, when Ren Ze came to pick up Xiaohu, Xiaohu put on a bad face. The problem was that he didn't know why he was so angry.
