After finishing his porridge, Li Zhaokun took Da Huang and his Old Man Tie out for a walk. There were so many people in the house, so it was not his turn to look after the children.
The conversation between the two of them might be childish and ridiculous. There were no brilliant thoughts washing their minds, but there was a sense of sincerity and mutual appreciation.
Shou Shan arrived two days later than Li He due to the delay in processing the documents.
This time, Old Man Lee gave him face and personally went to the airport to pick him up. He did not go even when Li He came.
Shou Shan felt honored and deeply felt that it was not a loss to bring a box of Maotai for Old Man Lee.
"This house is good enough." He first expressed his opinion about Li He's house and then said, "When my grandson and granddaughter come to school, I have to buy them one."
Old Man Lee smiled and said, "Let's be neighbors. My grandson is also studying in Hong Kong, so the children can play together."
"That's good, that's good." Shou Shan was flattered again. Old Man Lee had never been so nice to him.
Li He smiled and said, "Come in and sit."
Four stepped forward and greeted them politely. He helped the auntie put a cup of tea in front of each of them.
Five had earplugs in his ears and shook his head.
"Mute, don't you know how to greet people?" Although Li He was not very respectful to these two old men, he did not want his sister to be so impolite.
"Uncle Shou, Uncle Li, sit." Lao Wu imitated Lao Si and shouted dryly. Then, he turned around and went upstairs. He walked briskly, unlike when he was listening to music.
It was not that she was impolite, but she simply did not know how to greet them. She was not as familiar with these two old men as Four was.
Old Man Lee was a little embarrassed. "Little girl, relax. You don't have to be so strict."
"That's right. Spoil your daughter." Shou Shan also agreed. He probably wanted to make it up to his daughter, so he basically did not disobey her.
At noon, Wang Yulan cooked personally with the help of the auntie. At the same time, she was angry that her man was not at home.
No matter whether she was rich or poor, she did not want to treat guests with any manners, except for Li Zhaokun's friends.
After a while, Old Tang also came with some pastries.
Old Man Lee did not get along with him, but he could only suppress his anger for Li He.
When the food and wine were served, Li He called Ding Shiping and the others to the table.
The six of them easily finished a box of Maotai, and Wan Liangyou alone drank nearly 1.5 liters.
Lao Wu went downstairs to get a bowl of rice. Seeing his brother's cold eyes, he tactfully made everyone a cup of tea.
Five Five, Five, "Five said." Five wanted to say, Shan, but Li, "Wan," Wu "Wan,".
Lao Wu wanted to quarrel, but she didn't dare to. If she quarreled normally, her brother would probably tolerate her a little. However, in a crowded place, if she embarrassed her brother, her brother would really beat her up. Therefore, she could only suppress her grievances and resentfully go upstairs again.
Old Man Lee talked about his business. "This place is a treasure. One year here is equivalent to three years of my family in Thailand. I want to open three more shops."
Shou Shan said generously, "Brother, if you need money, just say the word. I can't afford much, but I can definitely afford less."
"That's fine with me too. Just tell me." Old Tang wanted to reconcile with Old Man Lee.
"No need. I'll tell you if it's really bad." Old Man Lee did not reject him directly. He seemed to be trying to be friendly to the skinny bandit.
"I think I was educated!" Old Tang explained that he was not a bandit.
"Oh." Old Man Lee's tone was probably a sign of disdain.
Seeing Old Man Lee's indifference, Old Tang's arrogance rose and he simply ignored him.
The children's local accents made him feel very close, especially the Xinyang dialect that Yang Huai had learned from Old Madam Yang. It made him feel comfortable, so he simply followed behind the children.
He deliberately plucked a large handful of bamboo leaves from the bamboo forest and made dragonflies and grasshoppers for each child. It was vivid, delicate, and adorable.
The three children were also very happy following behind him.
Before school started, Huang Bingxin accompanied Li He to send the three children to school.
Although Huang Bingxin's status was not comparable to Yu Dehua and Shen Daoru's, he was still a big shot in Hong Kong. From the principal to the school board, they all came out to greet him personally. It was much grander than Yu Dehua's.
Li He followed Huang Bingxin's arrangements and stood in the corridor to smoke. The two girls, Five and Four, were accompanying him. They were also adults and were more familiar with Hong Kong's education system than Li He, so the arrangements were definitely more appropriate than Li He's.
Li He really did not need to worry.
As for Wang Yulan, she did not go in either. She stood in the corridor with her son, feeling uneasy.
In the end, the arrangements were made. The three children were different from Five. They did not need to stay at the school. Every day after school, the chauffeur and security would come to pick them up.
Five enviously said, "I don't stay at the school, but I go home every day after school."
She mustered up her courage and made her request to Li He. Even though her mother was in front of her, she knew it was useless to talk to her mother. The decision was in her mother's hands.
"Deal." Li He looked at his mother and agreed, because his mother would definitely want to see her daughter every day. "I will give you a chance this semester. If your results do not improve, you will continue to stay at the school."
"I want to study art." Five still made her request.
"You want to learn how to crawl before you can walk? We'll talk about it after your cultural studies." Li He rejected without hesitation. He had an inexplicable prejudice that he did not understand. He thought that those who painted and those who dabbled in music did not have a decent job.
Therefore, he would not allow Five to dabble in these things.
"I like to paint!" No matter what, Five had to take the opportunity to argue.
"Mr. Li, she is very good at painting. The interest classes she signed up for are all about painting." Huang Bingxin could not help but interrupt. Yu and Shen were not in Hong Kong, so he was the one who paid attention to Four's situation. He wanted to continue, but he was scared to death by Li He's glare and immediately shut up.
"Painting? Don't think that I don't know that you have been doing this for a long time. You even thought about doing photography in the past. "Li He threatened." If you really don't want to study anymore, I will send you back to your hometown. "
Five did not say anything. If it was in the past, she would definitely not fall for Li He's tricks. But now that she was familiar with everything here, she did not want to go home.
Seeing that her daughter was about to cry, Wang Yulan quickly comforted her, "Your brother is doing this for your own good. Listen to your brother."
She could only worry that she would not be able to help her daughter with her studies.
The three children carried their new books and new school bags. Naturally, they were all happy.
Li He asked Huang Bingxin to hire a new driver to pick up the three children in the future. At the same time, he also assigned two female security guards.
These days, Four left early and returned late, which made Li He feel that something was wrong.
That afternoon, he purposely took Ding Shiping to the road not far from home.
A boy was riding a bicycle, sweating profusely. He talked and laughed to the back from time to time.
When Li He saw that it was Four sitting behind him, his face instantly darkened.
