(4) Younger brothers

Li Xiaomu's online car-hailing car drove a hundred meters away from Lu Mansion and stopped driving.

"Little girl, there's a bunch of luxury cars in front of me! ”

Li Xiaomu had no choice but to get out of the car, raised his hand to block the sun, and looked at the sky.

It's a nice day.

Today is the old man of the Lu family, and on the day of the seventy birthday of the person she called Uncle Lu, she is not surprised that so many people will come.

Walking to the door of the mansion, more luxury cars stopped and left.

Li Xiaomu squinted at the big mansion inside the railing with her back to the sun, she hadn't been here for several years. If Uncle Lu hadn't called in person a few days ago, perhaps, she wouldn't have made today's trip at all.

took out his mobile phone and was about to call his mother, Li Xiaomu didn't think that the servants in this house would still recognize her. As a result, Lu Chun's voice came first.

"Sister, you're finally here, I still want to ask Wen Bo to drive to pick you up!" Lu Chun ran over excitedly and took Li Xiaomu's hand and ran towards the house, "Dad just said why didn't you come yet! Hurry up." ”

Li Xiaomu only had time to nod to the middle-aged man who had been following Lu Chun and seemed to be Uncle Lu's secretary in his impression, and was pulled all the way trotting.

In the eyes of the guests on the side, whether surprised, puzzled, or disdainful, Li Xiaomu saw her mother and the white-haired but energetic head of the Lu family beside her.

As soon as he saw his son pulling Li Xiaomu to arrive, Old Man Lu apologized to the guest who was talking and greeted him, "Little girl, please come once, it's really not easy!"

Li Xiaomu smiled embarrassedly, stretched out his hand and hugged the old man gently, "Uncle Lu, happy birthday, I wish you happiness like the East China Sea and longevity than Nanshan." ”

As she spoke, she handed over the gift box that her mother specially sent her yesterday, including the dress she was wearing now, which was sent together yesterday.

Li Xiaomu didn't care either, not for his own face, just for the old man in front of him to take care of him sincerely over the years.

When Xie Wanqing, who was only thirty-five years old at the time, married the old man Lu who was nearly sixty years old, everyone only thought that she was greedy for vanity and couldn't leave behind her luxurious life, or to take revenge on her father who abandoned their mother and daughter.

Maybe that's really the case!

Soon after, when Xie Wanqing was unexpectedly pregnant, everyone waited to see the joke, but what was surprising was that Old Man Lu not only did not drive Xie Wanqing out of the house, but took more care of him, until he became pregnant in October and gave birth to Lin'er, a DNA certificate slapped everyone's face.

And from that day on, everyone understood that this woman's position in the Lu family was stable.

However, for Li Xiaomu, this younger brother she used to hate, because since her mother gave birth to her younger brother, she had to be lived in her uncle's house until now.

The change was at Lu Chun's birthday party when he was three years old, and Li Xiaomu saw his younger brother again.

She still remembered that day, Uncle Lu took the little boy's hand and put it in her hand, and then said to Lu Chun, who was still ignorant: "Xiaochun, this is your sister! You have to take good care of your sister when you grow up!

The little Lu Chun looked at Li Xiaomu with wide eyes for a few seconds, and then threw himself directly into her arms, "Sister hug, sister kiss." Xiao Chun loves her sister. ”

Li Xiaomu no longer remembered what she was thinking at the time or what kind of mood she was feeling, but she hugged Lu Chun and cried for a long time.

"It's not interesting to talk to my old man, let's go play with Xiaochun! There are a lot of young people over there, go and talk, Xiaoang is over there, and you also know the second child of the Chu family......

"Dad, you're nagging again, I'll take care of my sister, don't worry!" Lu Chun interrupted Old Man Lu's words with disgust, in exchange for the old man's hearty laughter, "Okay, good, with you, what is there to worry about Dad." ”

Lu Chun pulled Li Xiaomu and didn't lean towards those young people, but looked for Qi Ang's figure, "Strange, where did Xiao Ang go?

"Senior sister, it's really you, I asked Xiao Ang if you would come, and he didn't tell me. A familiar voice sounded behind him.

Li Xiaomu looked back, and sure enough, it was Chu Nio.

Gold-rimmed glasses and a pure white suit, and shiny hair, I can't see the student's spirit.

"Brother Neo, have you seen Xiao Ang?" Lu Chun raised his head and asked crisply, and in a place where Li Xiaomu couldn't see, he said in a mouth shape, and the flower toad stayed away from my sister.

"Xiao Ang should have been taken away by the young ladies, I don't know where he went!" Chu Nuo stretched out his hand and happily pinched Lu Chun's white and tender little face while burying Qi Ang.

"Sister, he bullied me. Lu Chun immediately put on a pitiful appearance to complain, and asked Li Xiaomu to see his little face that was pinched red.

Without waiting for Li Xiaomu to answer, Chu Neo first looked at his face and said, "I accidentally hit it hard, or else, senior sister, you pinch it back." As he spoke, he also leaned his face towards Li Xiaomu.

Li Xiaomu finally couldn't help laughing, "Sure enough, it's a playboy, and he has a set of methods to coax girls!"

Chuneo continued to cheekily say, "Playboy! Which bastard is ruining Lao Tzu's reputation, isn't it Dada?"

"Do you still need to say it, you are!" Lu Chun interjected.

Chu Neo looked at Lu Chun with a suddenly realized expression, "It turns out that you kid is ruining my reputation behind my back! ”

Seeing the two children playing with one older and one younger, Li Xiaomu smiled even more happily.

Seeing this scene, the two people in the fight glanced at each other.

Lu Chun: "You're a bit useful." ”

Chuneo: "Sister Lovers. ”

"Okay, don't make trouble, there are still guests watching!" Saying that, Li Xiaomu looked outside the banquet hall, "Let's go outside for a walk!"

Lu Chun immediately took Li Xiaomu's hand and walked out, "Sister, there are a lot of delicious foods outside! ”

Chu Nio put his hands in his trouser pockets, followed the two sisters and brothers very recklessly, and sometimes snatched the food that Li Xiaomu helped Lu Chun take.

The strange combination of the three of them immediately attracted the attention of many people.

However, none of the three of them cared about this, and they still took care of themselves.

While resting on the swing by the flower bed, Chuneo said as if unintentionally, "Little Mumu, do you remember when you were a child?"

Li Xiaomu was stunned for Chu Nuo's sudden change of title, tilted his head and looked at him suspiciously, her childhood was not very good, so she could always forget it.

Chu Neo may have also reacted, and said with a smile: "I mean the memory of my little friend, hehe, I also remembered it last time I went to Wang's house." Do you remember playing chess pieces with a little boy in a small garden?"

Seeing Chu Neo's expectant gaze, Li Xiaomu thought about it seriously, and then looked at the other party in surprise, "Is that person you......?"

"Hehe, I didn't expect it!" Chu Neo deliberately ignored the second half of Li Xiaomu's sentence, and did not mention that there was a third friend at that time.

Although there is some way out with her own memories, Li Xiaomu is still very surprised to see her childhood partner again, she was introverted at that time, and she really didn't have any friends, and that time was indeed the happiest time.

"You didn't even say your name in the first place, and by the way, you lied to me that you were older than me. Li Xiaomu pretended to be angry and said, "It seems that you have liked to deceive girls since you were a child." ”

Chu Neo smiled bitterly: "How can it be considered a deception, it is just a little vanity of a child." ”

Lu Chun was very dissatisfied when he saw the two talking happily, and was about to open his mouth to break the harmonious atmosphere, but a male duck's voice interjected.

"Hmph, what kind of daughter does a woman give birth to. A vixen who hooks up with a man in broad daylight.。 ”

Looking for the sound, Li Xiaomu immediately recognized the young man who spoke, her other younger brother, Li Qi.

"Who do you say vixen? Lu Chun immediately sneered.

"You little kid is uneducated, and you are playing like a playground in a good banquet place. Li Qi said disdainfully, "I don't know where the poor relatives came from." ”

As soon as these words came out, several people who had been paying attention to this side from the beginning heard it and immediately laughed.

Li Qi was proud when he heard the laughter.

"This is my house, I'll play in the playground, what's the matter! It's you, why didn't I know that my father invited a little ghost like you!"

"I'm here with my grandfather, not your father. Li Qi hadn't reacted yet.

The people on one side laughed again.

"Your grandfather?"

"Yes. Li Qi proudly pointed to the old man who was chatting with Old Man Lu over there, "That's my grandfather." ”

Lu Chun instantly showed his white teeth, "Look at this, your grandfather should be the same as my father, according to the generation, you should call me uncle, this is my sister, you have to call aunt, oh no, call my sister old, anyway, it's also your elder, look at you, is there anyone who talks to elders like this? It's not wrong to say that you are not educated." ”

Li Qi was still wondering why this kid had become his uncle all of a sudden, and a member of the Li family finally discovered that something was wrong here, and ran over in a hurry.

Before the man could explain clearly to Li Qi, another voice sounded.

"As a guest, being so rude to the host really can't be called a cultured behavior? As for the fox spirit you just said? Hehe, I heard that Mrs. Li and Mr. Li have just been married for ten years, I don't know how old you are. Zion said unhurriedly, as if he was chatting with someone in a relaxed and happy manner.

"You, you are talking nonsense!" The young man in the period of voice change became a broken gong because of his roar, and his voice was particularly piercing in such an environment, and the people in the whispered conversation suddenly focused their eyes, and the face of the boy who was already twelve or thirteen years old was flushed.

The person from the Li family apologized to the surroundings again and again, and dragged the angry teenager away.

Chu Neo looked at the young man who was far away and said with emotion: "That's also your younger brother? Why does he look a little stupid! Doesn't he know the relationship between you and the Lu family?"

"You're too embarrassed to speak. Qi Ang said angrily, "It's all your fault, his cousin is the third lady of the Du family who was dumped by you the day before yesterday." Otherwise, he wouldn't have come. ”

"Muzi, don't care, it's just a child who was used as a gunman. Zion reassured.

Li Xiaomu tugged at the corners of his mouth and smiled reluctantly: "It's okay, it's just a child." ”

It was precisely because of this child that Li Xiaomu's own grandmother forced her father to divorce her mother and marry the current woman, and in the end, although her father divorced her mother, she had to marry that woman until her mother married Uncle Lu.

But is it really the child's fault? It's just an excuse for the adults! Otherwise, how could the woman have a chance?

Li Xiaomu shook his head, shook off the unhappiness, and looked down to see Lu Chun looking at him worriedly.

"Sister, I am your brother, you only have my brother. Is it good!" Lu Chun innocently blinked his big eyes and said in a pleading tone.

Li Xiaomu squatted down and touched Lu Chun's head, "Well, it's enough for me to have a younger brother of yours." ”

"Komaki, Kochun, it's okay! I just saw that little bastard. Xie Wanqing hurriedly walked over.

"It's okay, Mom, it's just a child's mouth. Li Xiaomu said.

Xie Wanqing complained: "I told Lao Lu a long time ago, don't invite people from the Li family, he didn't listen, and watched this happen." ”

"Mom. Uncle Lu and Mrs. Li have had a friendship for decades, how could they just break it. Don't make a fuss. Li Xiaomu persuaded.

"Okay, okay, we don't mention those who hate it. Xie Wanqing said helplessly.

Li Xiaomu held his mother's hand, looked at the old man in the distance, and said softly: "Mom, it's been so many years, don't be angry about those people and things that are not worthy of your attention, the people who are really worthy of your care are by your side, take good care of Uncle Lu." ”

"Do you still need to say this, I've been taking care of him all the time!"

"I mean, take care of it from the bottom of your heart. Li Xiaomu looked at Xie Wanqing's eyes and said, "If you can't fall in love with Uncle Lu, then treat him as your closest family member, he is the person who deserves your care and attention, instead of caring about those who have nothing to do with us now." To put it mildly, Uncle Lu is seventy years old, and no one knows how long he can stay with you. No matter what his purpose was in marrying you back then, and what was the purpose of marrying him? You still have Xiaochun, you are a family. ”

Xie Wanqing looked at Li Xiaomu, an expression of astonishment was obvious on her face, and then she looked at the old man in the distance, the old man seemed to feel something, and also looked here, waving at his wife and children.

Xie Wanqing's face softened a lot at once, "You're right, mom listens to you." ”

Watching Xie Wanqing lead Lu Chun back to the old man's side, Li Xiaomu smiled again.

It turned out that Qi Ang and Chunio, who were standing farther away because of the mother-daughter relationship, walked back to Li Xiaomu's side.

"Rest assured, they'll be happy, so you have to be happy too. Chuneo said softly.

Zion was silent and did not speak.

Li Xiaomu nodded, looked up at the sky, it was really a good day with a beautiful wind and sunshine!
