Yi Xiaohao obediently carried the old lady everywhere.
This time, he carried the old lady for more than an hour. Even with Yi Xiaohao's perseverance, he was exhausted.
By the time she carried the old lady back to the courtyard, everyone had already gotten off work.
He saw the old lady and Yi Xiaohao greeting him warmly.
"Yo, Little Hao is really in the mood. Where are you carrying the old lady?”
"I'm just strolling around."
Yi Xiaohao ignored the people around him and carried the old lady home.
When they reached home, Yi Zhonghai was already waiting for them.
"Oh, so it was Xiao Hao who carried the old lady out. I thought the old lady had disappeared.”
Yi Zhonghai came to visit the old lady as soon as he got off work.
In this courtyard, he was the one who was the most filial to the old lady.
The other two old men ignored the old lady, afraid that the old lady would eat something from their house.
Little did he know that having an old man at home was like having a treasure.
Seeing the old lady return, Yi Zhonghai's heart finally relaxed.
After Yi Xiaohao placed the old lady on the bed, he could not help but mutter.
"Hai, I'm so tired. If this old lady gains more than ten pounds during the New Year, I won't be able to carry her anymore.”
Yi Zhonghai could not help but ask when he saw Yi Xiaohao sweating profusely.
"Xiao Hao, what did you do behind the old lady's back?”
Yi Xiaohao was a little tired and prepared to drink some water to quench his thirst.
At this moment, the old lady spoke.
"Xiao Hao has taken a fancy to the girl. I'm bringing him to take a look.”
These words made Yi Xiao Hao spit out the water that he had swallowed.
This old lady really knew how to twist black and white.
"Little Hao, which girl have you taken a fancy to? I'll arrange a marriage for you another day.”
Yi Zhonghai immediately believed the old lady's words. The gaze he gave Yi Xiaohao turned from loving to surprised.
Yi Xiaohao wiped the water from the corner of his mouth and said,"Uncle, don't listen to the old lady's nonsense. The old lady is speculating and secretly selling food stamps.”
"Carry it outside and talk nonsense."
Yi Zhonghai was unmoved. It seemed that he had known about the old lady's actions.
Then, Yi Zhonghai continued,"Old lady, I've left the five catties of white flour for you."?”
"I was wondering why the old lady had food stamps to sell. It seems that this is all because of you, uncle.”
Yi Zhonghai looked at him with a blaming gaze.
The old lady looked at Yi Xiaohao with a confused expression and then said to Yi Zhonghai.
"What is he talking about?"
Fine, I'm wasting my time here, but this old lady is pretending not to hear me.
"I'm praising you."
This time, the old lady was not confused.
"It seems that you can learn a lot of skills from me.”
Yi Xiao Hao smiled bitterly.
In this era, if someone was caught selling food stamps, they would be thrown into the police station.
This old lady was really good. She directly described it as a skill for doing business.
"Yes, who is better at speculation than you?”
The first uncle was unhappy when he heard this. He felt that Yi Xiaohao was disrespecting the old lady and immediately reprimanded him.
"If the old lady really shows some real ability, you will really ruin the old lady's business.”
"Old Madam, don't say anything in front of him in the future.”
The old lady waved her hand after hearing this, her face indifferent.
"It's okay. Xiao Hao is not a bad person.”
First Uncle could tell from this sentence that even if Yi Xiaohao had scolded the old lady, the old lady did not blame him. Instead, she liked him quite a bit.
This made the old man puzzled. This Xiao Hao had never had any interactions with the old lady. Why was the old lady starting to side with him?
Then, Yi Zhonghai started to talk about the reason why he was here.
"Old Madam, I'm thinking of visiting Qin Huairu's house this year. What do you think?”
The old lady didn't care about the New Year as long as she was happy.
"Anything is fine. You can arrange it as you see fit."
Yi Zhonghai asked Yi Xiaohao after getting the old lady's opinion.
"Lil Hao, when the time comes, let's go to Qin Huairu's house to celebrate the new year together.”
Yi Xiaohao was a little hesitant when he heard that they were going to Qin Huairu's house for the New Year.
This woman was still quite favored by the old lady. If he did not go, he did not know if the old lady would be unhappy.
At this moment, the old lady smiled and said,"Yes, it's lively with more people. Xiao Hao, let's go together."”
Hearing the old lady's words, Yi Xiaohao agreed.
After bidding farewell to the old lady, Yi Xiaohao and Yi Zhonghai went back together.
"Uncle, wait a moment."
Halfway there, Yi Xiaohao called Yi Zhonghai out.
"What's wrong?" Yi Zhonghai asked.
"I saw you prepare ten catties of white flour just now. Are you going to give it to Qin Huairu's family?”
Yi Zhonghai was a little puzzled. He had secretly put away the ten catties of white flour.
Even his own wife didn't know, so how did he know?
"How did you know I was going to give it to her?”Yi Zhonghai asked.
After thinking for a moment, Yi Xiaohao said.
"Their family is the most pitiful in this courtyard. Of course, you gave it to them, but I suggest that you don't give it to them.”
Yi Zhonghai continued to ask. "Why? Didn't you say that they're pathetic?”
"Uncle, she's a widow. If you give them white flour, it'll easily attract gossip.”
"It's okay. I'll send it over tonight.”
He knew what Yi Xiaohao was talking about.
However, he didn't care at all. No one would know if he gave it to her at night anyway.
Yi Xiaohao knew what Yi Zhonghai was thinking and continued to persuade him.
"It's inevitable that someone will find out at night. Besides, Qin Huairu has a mother-in-law at home. She'll definitely know.”
"Besides, you don't have to worry about Qin Huairu's family. Her family is very fat this New Year.”
Having said that, Yi Xiaohao did not continue. He would let his uncle weigh the rest.
Yi Xiaohao knew that his uncle was good to him, so he reminded him not to do this.
According to the original novel, Yi Zhonghai did exactly that and was seen by the second uncle.
This gave the second uncle a chance. When the entire academy held a meeting, the second uncle had already told him about this matter. Then, his uncle would no longer be the first uncle in the courtyard.
