Looking at the two children in front of him, Li Zexuan felt a little uncomfortable. Other children at this age were playing with their friends outside, but these two children could only squat at home and play with a flock of chickens. How sad.
"Aunt Liu, you go do your things first. I want to talk to these two children alone for a while."
"Ah, then young master, if you need anything, call me." Liu Yue`er responded and brought Han Lizheng to sit in the front hall.
…
"Is your name Guoji?" Li Zexuan bent down and tried to smile kindly.
Perhaps because he felt Li Zexuan's goodwill, Hu Zexuan said with a silly smile, "Young … master, you … already … know … my … name. Why … are … you … still … asking … for … me?"
Eh, it seemed that this child wasn't stupid. Previously, when Li Zexuan saw that he didn't forget to pull his sister along when he came over, Li Zexuan felt that this child wasn't as stupid as Han Lizheng and the others said. Now that he saw Hu Guoyuan, although he spoke slowly, his thoughts were very clear and organized. Li Zexuan was even more certain of his judgment.
"Sure enough, I heard that you can make chickens very obedient. Can you show it to your brother?"
"Yes … Ah!" Hearing Li Zexuan mention chickens, Hu Guoji suddenly became excited and quickly pulled his sister to the flock of chickens in the east corner of the yard.
Li Zexuan crossed his arms with great interest as he stood to the side, watching the two siblings play out what kind of tricks they would play.
He saw Hu Guoji raise two chubby little hands and let out a burst of hurried "Gu Gu Gu" sounds. The flock of chickens seemed to have heard the order and excitedly surrounded him, "Gu Gu Gu" sounds around him.
"Sis … Sister, it's … your … turn." Hu Guoji shouted at Hu Guoji.
She took out a willow leaf from her waist, put it to her mouth, and blew an incomplete tune. The flock of chickens that were surrounding her turned around and ran to her side.
Li Zexuan was dumbfounded as he watched from the side. In his previous life, his family had also raised chickens, but when his mother usually called the chickens to feed them, those chickens would only run over and watch nearby. They would only dare to come over to eat when his mother was far away. It wasn't like this! When the chickens heard the voices of the two siblings, they were not afraid of them at all. They surrounded them as if they had taken drugs. It was really amazing.
What Li Zexuan didn't expect was that there would be something even more extreme.
Sure enough, Hu seemed to be a little high at this time. He ran to his sister's side and stood in front of the flock of chickens. Then, he turned his head to Li Zexuan and smiled proudly, saying, "Hey … hey, young … master, look … quickly!"
Hu Guoji raised his hands, half squatted, and jumped up and down. His mouth made a very rhythmic "ge ge ge" sound. The flock of chickens in front of him, at this moment, seemed to have heard his call and lined up neatly in front of him. What was even more amazing was that the flock of chickens actually followed Hu Guoji's rhythm and began to jump. They also tilted their necks and turned their heads neatly.
Perhaps Hu felt that it was boring for his brother to play alone, so he put the willow leaf next to his mouth and played a happy and melodious tune with Hu Guoji's rhythm.
In the small courtyard, a young girl was standing under the sun and playing a tune. A young boy was happily walking while making strange sounds. The flock of chickens on the ground twisted their bodies to the rhythm. This scene was so beautiful that it almost blinded Li Zexuan's titanium alloy eyes.
At this moment, Li Zexuan's heart gave birth to a strange feeling. The scene in front of him was as if a young girl was playing music, and then a young boy was below the stage, leading a flock of chickens to do a square dance. Tsk tsk, Li Zexuan expressed that this was really something that he had seen long ago!
…
"Hey … Hey … Young … Master … Guoji … How … is … your … acting …?" The two children played for a while, and Hu Guoji felt tired first, so he stopped and ran to Li Zexuan's side, somewhat proudly asking for praise.
Usually, only his sister was willing to play with him. When other children saw him and his sister playing with a flock of chickens, they all treated them as fools and distanced themselves from them. This time, it was rare to have such an amiable young master who specially wanted to see him and the flock of chickens perform. Hu Guoji was very happy and had long regarded Li Zexuan as his best friend.
Li Zexuan could see that Hu Guoji urgently needed to be acknowledged and praised by others. He also understood that this child's heart was lonely and lacked recognition. Li Zexuan smiled, rubbed Hu Guoji's head, and said, "Sure enough, your performance was very good. You really are the smartest child I've ever seen!"
Hu Guoji, who was on the side, heard this and breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid that this young master would say something to hurt her brother like other people and make him sad. Her brother's heart had been hurt enough. At this time, when she heard Li Zexuan praise her brother, Hu Guoji felt a trace of gratitude towards Li Zexuan from the bottom of her heart.
When Hu Guoji heard Li Zexuan's words, he jumped three feet high and excitedly rushed to the front hall. As he ran, he cheered, "Mother, young master … just … said … I'm … not … a … fool. He said … I'm … the … smartest … child … in the … village!" At this moment, he was so excited that he spoke faster than before.
This was the first praise he received from an outsider since he came to this world. Finally, there was someone who didn't treat him as a fool. Of course, Hu Guoji's heart was excited. Although he was young, he had been treated as a fool by the children in the village since he was young. His self-esteem had been trampled over and over again, so of course, he was more mature than his peers. He was so eager to be recognized, and today, there was finally someone who recognized him. Hu Guoji felt that he had never been as happy as today. In his heart, he thought, "This young master who came from nowhere is really a good person!"
At this time, Hu Guoji used the bamboo stick to explore the road and came to Li Zexuan's side. She smiled and said, "Thank you young master for saying so. I haven't seen my brother so happy in a long time!"
Although her heart was as calm as still water, it was only for outsiders. For this brother of hers, she naturally cared and loved him very much.
Li Zexuan habitually shook his head. Suddenly, he realized that this girl seemed to be unable to see, so he quickly said awkwardly, "Haha, what I said just now was actually the truth. I didn't deliberately say that to make you happy."
Hu Guoji said in disbelief, "Really?"
"Of course it's true. In the eyes of others, your ability to make chickens obedient may be worthless, but in my eyes, your ability is priceless." Li Zexuan said with certainty.
"Well, although I can't see young master's expression, I can feel young master's sincerity. Young master is speaking the truth! Thank you young master! "Hu Guoji's face finally broke into a smile and said happily.
