The next day.

Li Zexuan slept until three o'clock in the morning before getting up. He thought about how he woke up too late yesterday and didn't practice any martial arts. He couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. Before, he had thought about practicing Tai Xuan Jing to the ninth level, so he fished for two days in three days. Tianshaiwang didn't work, so I sat cross-legged on the bed and read "Tai Xuan Sutra" for several weeks, and I suddenly felt refreshed.

"Brother, brother." Lan'er's soft call came from outside, and then she heard a burst of brisk footsteps walking towards the door.

Alas, this girl would come over to wake him up every morning, just like an alarm clock. Every time she would just barge in without knocking on the door. This was not a good habit. What if he was in the room with her one day? Xiaoxi...ah, that's wrong. It should be what if one day in the future he is doing something embarrassing with his future wife in the room, and this little girl breaks in and causes bad things

Li Zexuan will never admit that he has thoughts about Xiao Xi. Xiao Xi is still a thirteen-year-old child, and he is definitely not a lolita fan. In order to get rid of his sister's bad habit, Li Zexuan decided to punish her a little.

He dodged and hid behind the door, just in time to hear Lan'er's footsteps walking to the door. As expected, Lan'er didn't have the habit of knocking, so she pushed the door open and ran to the inner room.

"Brother, you lazy boy, get up soon." Lan'er started shouting before she even ran to the bed. When I got to the bed, I naturally found that the bed was empty.

"Hey, where is my brother? Why is he missing?" Lan'er was about to turn around and wanted to go find Sister Xiaohe to ask. Suddenly she saw a face with white eyes (naturally it was Li Zexuan rolling his eyes there), stretching out his A big tongue came towards her little face...

After a pause of three seconds, a sudden piercing scream resounded through the west courtyard of Li Mansion: "Ah~~~!" Lan'er screamed in horror. She closed her eyes and beat the monster in front of her with both hands to prevent him from eating her, praying in her heart. Asking her brother to come and save her quickly.

"Lan'er, Lan'er, what's wrong?" Li Zexuan was startled by Lan'er's excessiveness. He was afraid of scaring Lan'er too much, so he quickly squeezed Lan'er's shoulders with both hands and said softly to Lan'er.

Hearing her brother's voice, Lan'er dared to open her eyes and saw her real brother in front of her. She quickly ran over and hugged her brother, crying: "Brother, where are you? There was a monster with a big tongue just trying to eat Lan'er. Woohoo~~~~.”

Li Zexuan didn't expect to scare Lan'er to tears, so he secretly blamed himself, but now that it was like this, he could only make mistakes, otherwise Lan'er would definitely not let him off lightly.

"Lan'er, did you not knock on the door when you came in just now?"

"Well, no." Xiao Laner sobbed.

"Lan'er, actually the monster you just saw is a door monster. If you enter the room without knocking, he will come out if you are in a bad mood and only eats little girls." Li Zexuan started to fool around.

"Ah, don't eat Lan'er. Lan'er doesn't taste good. Lan'er will just knock on the door from now on." Lan'er suddenly said in fear.

"Well, as long as Lan'er knocks on the door, the monster won't come out. Lan'er won't cry anymore." Li Zexuan is very happy to fool the children now, but when Lan'er grows up and thinks of this incident, he will be disappointed with today. I regret what I have done, which is something I won’t mention for the time being.

After coaxing Xiao Lan'er, Li Zexuan went to wash up and have breakfast.

Every morning when Li Zexuan got up late, Mrs. Li would ask the kitchen to leave a meal in the morning. The couple and Lan'er, who got up early, naturally ate together. At this moment, Li Zexuan was eating breakfast alone in the front hall. He happened to see his father and mother walking in. His father still had a black eye.

"Dad, Mom, why are you here? Let's eat together!" Li Zexuan greeted his parents while eating.

"Xuan'er, please eat quickly. Mom and your father have already eaten." Mrs. Li said with a smile while sitting on the bench next to Li Jingmo. After sitting down, Mrs. Li looked at Li Zexuan eating there with a smile on her face, her face full of kindness, and her smile grew stronger the more she looked at it. Li Zexuan was furious at being stared at by his mother, thinking that he hadn't done anything bad recently.

"Mom, if you have anything to do, just tell the child. You are staring at the child so much that he can't eat." With my mother staring at me all the time, Li Zexuan really couldn't eat, so he could only say helplessly.

"It's okay, it's okay. Mom just came to ask you if you are short of money recently."

Li Zexuan was stunned. He didn't expect that his parents were here to give him pocket money. Usually other people would ask their parents for pocket money. How could any parent take the initiative to give pocket money to their children? Li Zexuan was a little touched at this moment and said with a smile: "Mom , My child is not short of pocket money recently."

Mrs. Li was a little disappointed. Last night she heard her husband tell her what happened to Li Zexuan at the clothing store yesterday. Her son was making a difference. As a mother, she was happier than anyone else, but she was a little too happy. She She was so excited that she didn't sleep well all night, and kept asking Li Jingmo about the details of the matter. Li Jingmo told her seven or eight times, but she still couldn't get tired of hearing it. In this way, Li Jingmo was tortured all night, and she refused in the morning. With big dark circles under his eyes.

When she heard that her son was getting up, Mrs. Li quickly pulled Li Jingmo over, wanting to give her son some maternal love. After all, her son had been away from home for so many years, and she, as a mother, was now trying her best to treat her son better.

"Xuan'er, if you are short of money, just tell your mother that you have to spend money to eat and drink with diplomatic friends. Don't belittle yourself, and don't feel bad about money. Your father has plenty of money. He makes so much money, so why not It's not for you, don't be afraid of spending money." Mrs. Li got up and patted Li Zexuan on the back, encouraging him to be a prodigal son with a loving look on her face.

Hearing this, Li Jingmo almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. Just as he was about to object, Mrs. Li glared back. Of course, Li Jingmo didn't dare to stare back, so he could only stare at his son fiercely, thinking angrily in his heart, since this brat came back, his status in the family has plummeted. Yesterday, he told his wife that this boy would After the arithmetic incident, this brat's status has become higher and he has now become the ancestor of the family. He must never tell his wife about this kind of thing again, Li Jingmo made up his mind.

Li Zexuan was dumbfounded after hearing what my mother said. What does this mean? This is asking me to become a prodigal son. Li Zexuan said that the world is changing too fast and he can't understand it.

He said to his mother nonchalantly: "Well, thank you, mother. If the child is short of money, he will ask his mother for it." Seeing his father silent, Li Zexuan thought that he was only talking to his mother, and his father felt neglected. Feeling unhappy, he accosted his father with a stern face and said, "Dad, why don't you go to the store today?"

Li Jingmo originally planned to go to the West Market store this afternoon. After all, the clothing store had not found a new shopkeeper yet, and he was a little worried. But after hearing his son's words, he remembered that his wife had just said that he earned so much money. After giving it to Li Zexuan, he immediately lost his motivation to make money. His face darkened and he said angrily: "You want me to take care of you, you brat? I won't go there today... Well, cough, there is nothing to do in this store today, so as a father I don’t plan to go.”

But it was Mr. Li who felt Mrs. Li's slightly murderous gaze, changed his tone, and spoke in as gentle a tone as possible.

Father Li felt that he couldn't stay in the front hall any longer, so he quickly went back to the east courtyard to sleep in his cage with his hands behind his back.

Li Zexuan could see that his father was afraid of his mother, and his status in this family was really low. He felt a little sympathy for his father. He didn't know what was wrong with my mother today, and she was suddenly so enthusiastic, but he was too lazy to care about it now. Under the loving gaze of my mother, he hurriedly finished breakfast and ran away, going to the backyard to play with Lan'er.
