The little sister is a troublemaker

Chapter 32 He is really a useless person now.

"Lan'er, you came here today, it's still a bit reckless." Li Xun was a little worried. If she went back at this time, the workers in the mine should have gone back. If there were so many people, if one of them saw something, it would be disadvantageous to her.

"Uncle, I really feel uneasy if you don't come to see me in this situation. If it weren't for Yuanyuan, how much suffering would Xi'er have suffered today? Don't worry too much. After so many years, who can still remember the child who should have died more than ten years ago? Besides, the way I look today, I can still fool people."

Hearing the words "a child who should have been gone long ago," Li Yi felt a pang of pain in his heart. The scene of that day was still vivid in his mind. After all, he was a useless father and could not protect her.

"Don't be careless. It's better to be cautious, especially you..." Li Yi glanced at the scar at the corner of her eye, "There are many people in the Li family's side branches who know you, and not all of them are united."

"Got it, Dad. I'll ask Yuanyuan to cover for me and I'll stay in the house. It just so happens that I have something important to tell you all this time."

"What's the matter?" Li Xun asked.

Li Mulan kept it a secret, "Don't worry, uncle, it's a good thing. We'll talk about it in detail after we meet grandfather."

"Yes, yes, you haven't met your grandfather yet, and your... mother." Thinking of his wife, Li Yi was a little nervous. "I haven't mentioned you to her yet, and I don't know if it will scare her. Lan'er, your mother... went crazy for two years back then. Although she rarely relapsed in recent years, after all... So if she... don't be afraid later, she just... just misses you too much."

Li Yi's lips trembled. His wife was once such a gentle, virtuous, beautiful and generous woman. After the blow of losing her daughter, she was devastated and had aged a lot over the years...

Li Mulan felt a little depressed, although she had no memory of her mother. But in her dreams, she could always hear the anxious female voice calling "Lan'er", which should be her mother's voice.

"Mom...is she okay?" Li Mulan regretted asking this question. How could she be okay? If she was okay, why would she be crazy?

Li Yi was afraid that she would worry, so he immediately responded, "Okay, much better, Lan'er, don't worry. Over the years, she has become no different from an ordinary person, but sometimes... sometimes she can't distinguish reality, and she thought she was in Kyoto, and thought you were still alive..."

Li Mulan pursed her lips and said, "Dad, don't worry. I have learned some medical skills over the years. I will take a look at Mom. Maybe she can be cured. Even if I can't cure her, I know a great doctor who can cure her."

Li Xi smiled and said, "Don't worry, sister. As long as mother knows that you are still alive, she won't need any medicine at all. Once she is happy, her illness will be cured."

"Yes, sister-in-law will surely be cured of all her illnesses when she sees Lan'er." Li Yun is not good at speaking, but he added in a good mood at the moment.

Soon, the carriage arrived at the village where they lived, and Huo Yuanruo exchanged seats with Li Mulan at the entrance of the village.

The carriage drove into the village, and villagers from every household looked out.

Those who knew about what happened in the mine today looked at the carriage with envy. The Li family was really lucky to have met a noble man. Although the status of an exile cannot be changed, life can always be much better.

The Li family's courtyard is at the end of the village. The families next to them are from the Li family's side branches. They were exiled here because of their involvement in the incident, so they all have resentment in their hearts, so they don't interact with each other very often. But if something really happens, they will not ignore it. After all, they are a family, and they can't write two Li characters with one stroke. After all, they have been honored and protected.

At this moment, there were several people from the Li family's side branches waiting in the yard. Although they didn't say anything, Li Cong guessed that something must have happened. But his leg, ah... Now he is really a useless person.

Li Yi's wife, Zhang, felt a little worried, but did not dare to ask too much. She looked outside the yard anxiously, wondering why he hadn't come back today?

When they saw the carriage, everyone stood up, but did not dare to move forward.

Li Xun was the first to dismount. Seeing the people in the yard, he hurried forward and bowed. "Second uncle, third uncle, fifth uncle, why are you here?" He also greeted the other people of the same generation one by one.

One of them, a little old man with gray hair and a serious face, stepped forward. This man was Li Cong’s cousin, Li Huan, the second uncle of Li Xun and others.

"We heard about what happened at the mine today, but we were in the north at the time. When we rushed over, you had already left. We were worried, so we came to take a look."

"I'm sorry to have worried my cousins ​​and brothers. It's alright. Fortunately, I got help from a noble person. I'm finally safe and sound."

Everyone nodded without asking for details.

At this time, Huo Yuanruo and others had already got off the carriage, and Li Xi was still carried down by Li Yi.

Huo Yuanruo naturally stood in front of Li Mulan, looking at everyone with some arrogance, "Oh, there are quite a lot of people. Hey, Li Xun, find a place for me to sit. Where can I sit in this shabby place?"

Everyone looked at Huo Yuanruo who was striding towards them and made way for him, knowing that he was the noble man who had come to help them.

Li Xun apologized to the elders, "I'm sorry, uncles, we have distinguished guests visiting today, so I won't entertain them. Tomorrow, Xun'er will come to your house in person to explain everything to everyone."

The few of them looked at each other, said no more, expressed concern for Li Xi for a few words, and then left.

Zhang saw that her son was carried back by her husband, and she stepped forward, "Xi'er, what happened? Are you hurt? Come, let me take a look."

Li Xi didn't want his mother to see the injuries on his body, so he immediately blocked her outstretched hand and said, "Mom, I'm fine. I just sprained my foot. That's why Dad carried me on his back. I'll be fine after a few days of rest."

"You twisted your ankle?" Zhang glanced at the unfamiliar clothes on him. "Is it serious?"

Li Xi immediately waved his hands, "It's not serious, I fell into the ditch and my clothes are all dirty. Fortunately..." He couldn't find a reason and looked at Huo Yuanruo, "It was this young master who was kind enough to give me two sets of clean clothes."

"Oh, really?" Zhang looked at Huo Yuanruo. Although he looked arrogant, he was handsome and not at all unpleasant. "Young Master, you are such a good man. Thank you very much."

Huo Yuanruo knew that this aunt was the mother of Junior Master's Uncle, so his expression softened unconsciously, "Thank you, Auntie, it's not a valuable thing, please don't take it to heart." Suddenly remembering his dandy image, his face turned cold again, "Well, I'm thirsty, do you have any water?"

Zhang smiled gently, "Yes, yes, I'll go get it right away." Then she looked at the dark-skinned boy behind Huo Yuanruo. The boy was not tall and seemed to have been staring at her. "What do you want, little brother?"

Li Mulan's throat tightened a little, and she turned slightly to cover the scar at the corner of her eye. "Ahem, I...I don't want it anymore."

Zhang nodded, and then went to pour Huo Yuanruo a glass of water, "We are a poor family, and we don't have tea leaves. Young Master, just use some plain water."

Huo Yunruo looked at the bowl full of chips and frowned, but didn't say anything. He drank two sips, then looked at Li Mulan and rolled his eyes, "Why are you following me? Did I ask you to come here to look after me? Get lost and find something to do yourself."
