Zhang Tieniu stopped and turned around to look at Li Qingyou intently. A flash of hope flashed in his eyes, but he heard her say, "You... go see Qin Xiu more when you have nothing to do, talk to her, and care more about her."

There were some things that she couldn't explain very clearly, and besides, she didn't have any evidence. They were just speculative things, and all she could do was hit the mark.

As for what happens to them in the future, that is their business.

Zhang Tieniu choked in his throat, "Is this what you're telling me?"

Unfortunately, he thought she chased him out to explain her relationship with that coward.

Zhang Tieniu sneered, with a hint of sadness in his smile, and suddenly said angrily: "Okay, I'll go talk to her right now and make sure to take good care of her, okay."

After yelling this sentence, he strode away without any hesitation...

Li Qingyou's tense shoulders relaxed. It was obvious that Zhang Tieniu did not understand what she meant, but there was only so much she could do.

It wasn't until the sound of coughing came from behind that Li Qingyou remembered Liu Xiaosan and hurriedly ran back to ask him how he was doing.

"I'm fine." Liu Xiaosan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, a little afraid to look directly at Li Qingyou's concerned gaze, and his ears turned slightly red.

It wasn't because he was shy, but because he was beaten like a dead dog in front of her, and he had no power to fight back. It was so embarrassing.

In fact, he was panicked for a moment at the beginning, and then calmed down. He is a person who can't even support himself, and he is even more aware of the gap between them.

And he could also see that there seemed to be something unusual between Li Qingyou and that bull-like man.

Although Liu Xiaosan said it was okay, Li Qingyou still helped him apply the medicine for his wounds. When he was helping him rub the medicinal wine, he saw that he was grinning but still holding back. He wanted to laugh but couldn't really laugh.

Seeing the dejected look on his face, Li Qingyou comforted him: "Brother Tieniu has been practicing since childhood, and he moves first, so it's normal that you can't beat him."

She had seen Zhang Tieniu fight, and although she couldn't see any martial arts skills, she could always tell the winner or loser. In addition, Zhang Tieniu was tall and strong, so usually three or five people couldn't beat him.

The fact is that Zhang Tieniu has been drinking all day long in recent days. Although he has not lost his health, it is still no better than before. Otherwise, Liu Xiaosan's punch would not have landed on his face.

Li Qingyou's comfort didn't have much effect. If you can't beat him, you just can't beat him. What else can he do besides admitting that his skills are inferior to others?

It was already evening when Adi came back with the donkey. Liu Xiaosan had left early. Before leaving, Li Qingyou wanted to give him some medicine money but he didn't ask for it. And Adi didn't know anything about what happened during the day.

Looking at Adi who looked like he had been wallowing in the quagmire, Li Qingyou could only sigh. This child was so naughty that she could not follow him step by step. She had no other choice but to scold him.

Then she thought about the time when a child of such an age is playful, and by nature, she didn't want to control her brother in a subservient manner, so she wouldn't interfere too much as long as it wasn't too much.

At this moment, she asked Adi to quickly change out of his dirty clothes. There was water in the tub under the window that had been exposed to the sun for a day. It was still warm at this moment, so she asked him to take a bath quickly, and she even made arrangements to help him wash it.

As a result, my brother refused to agree.

"Why is this child so stubborn?" Li Qingyou frowned slightly, "You can't rub your own back... can you? Let me see how you can do it? You can rub it for me."

Li Qingyou pointed to the water tank and asked him to show up and explain.

Anyone with some common sense knows that it is easy to touch the back with your hands, but it is not easy to actually clean it because it does not require strength.

Adi bit his lip and didn't answer. Of course he knew he couldn't, but he really couldn't...

A ten-year-old boy has already developed gender awareness. Not to mention that he has something to hide from Sister Qingyou, and even without him he cannot let her help with bathing.

It's just that he couldn't express these things in his mouth, so he could only grit his teeth and bear it.

However, Li Qingyou has the final say in this family.

As the being at the top of the food chain, she has the absolute right to speak, while Adi, who is at the bottom of the food chain, can only be forcibly suppressed.

Li Qingyou is not that autocratic. Most of the time, as long as her brother can give her reasons and convince her, she will not insist on him doing anything. On the contrary, she must listen to her.

Such as taking a shower.

Finally, Adi held his nose and sat down in the basin, but he refused to take off his shorts even to death. In order to prove his determination, he even buried his head in the water and said, "If you push me again, I will drown myself."

Come on."

Li Qingyou laughed angrily. She really didn't understand what the child was so awkward about. Considering that children also have dignity and this was a place where he could wash himself, he didn't insist anymore.

A bath was almost like a battle. Adi was clean, but Li Qingyou was covered in water and sweat. She took the clean clothes prepared in advance and handed them to Adi to change into. Li Qingyou also went back.

Get your own clothes and prepare to take a bath.

Adi watched her disappear, dressed as quickly as possible, and poured out the water in the tub. When he replaced it with clean water, Li Qingyou also came back.

After the siblings took a bath and had dinner, Li Qingyou went back to the east room to continue painting. Only when it was time to go to bed, Adi came to see her again holding the quilt.

"Sister, I'm scared and can't sleep. I want to sleep with you." Adi blinked his big misty eyes and looked at Li Qingyou eagerly, which made her heart almost melt.

It was already close to midnight, and Adi was trying to stay awake until now before running over.

He didn't know what Sister Qingyou was busy with. Although he was full of curiosity and thought about coming in to take a look, Sister Qingyou kept a close eye on this room, so he had no chance.

It's not okay for a child not to sleep. Li Qingyou felt extremely distressed, but still refused with determination.

"An ancient saying goes: When the sky goes to bed, I sleep, and when the sky wakes, I wake up, which is the way to maintain health." Adi yawned and said plausibly, "My sister stayed up all night until midnight, and had to get up again in the middle of the night. If this goes on, I won't be hurt.

The eyes and body will definitely be too much to bear. If my sister has her strengths and weaknesses, who can I rely on?"

Li Qingyou, "..."

She was speechless.

It was common for her to stay up late and work overtime in her previous life, but she ignored that this was not the previous life. Here she could not sleep until midnight and had to make tofu every day before dawn, which was too long.

Her small body couldn't bear it. If nothing else, she had dark circles under her eyes in just a few days.

Li Qingyou is not a stubborn person, nor is she someone who cannot listen to advice, as long as she is willing to listen to what is said to her.

"You return to Gu Renyun, I will call you Gu Renyun." Glancing at his brother who was so sleepy that he couldn't even open his eyes, Li Qingyou felt funny in his heart, and used his hands to tickle his armpits. His brother chuckled, and the siblings laughed together.
