In the Little Red Horse Academy, the cicadas are chirping constantly, the sun is shining brightly, the shadows of the trees are dancing, and gusts of wind are blowing from the grove.
Lao Li was sitting comfortably in the woods, but he didn't feel the heat at all.
What's rare is that he didn't make tea again today.
It's hot and it's not the right time to make tea. Who wants to drink hot tea at this time?
You have to drink herbal tea.
However, the herbal tea that Lao Li drank was not the kind of herbal tea drink sold in the market, but a kind of herbal tea that his wife made specially for him. It was boiled with lotus leaves and some Chinese medicinal materials, which can prevent heatstroke.
cooling effect.
The taste is not very good, and the bitterness is relatively strong, but for Lao Li, this taste is accustomed to it, and after suffering the bitterness, he feels happy.
His wife cooked him a big pot, and he drank it himself, enjoying himself.
Xin Xiaoguang's violent voice rang in his ears, coming from the studio.
After a while, Xin Xiaoguang appeared.
He looked very irritable. When he came to Lao Li, Lao Li didn't ask anything and poured him a glass to relieve the heat.
"It's too bitter. If you don't drink it, it's like drinking medicine."
Xin Xiaoguang felt that Lao Li was becoming more and more immortal. The tea he drank before had a tea-like flavor, but the herbal tea he drank now felt like he was drinking Chinese medicine. Liuliu and the others were right, it couldn't be brewed with mulberry leaves.
"Come on, come on~"
Xin Xiaoguang saw two small figures following him out of the studio, one tall and one short, they were Xiaobai and Xi'er.
Zhang Tan entrusted the two of them to Xin Xiaoguang and Lao Li to take care of them, while he himself went to the company to handle some work matters.
"Brother Xiaoguang, brother Xiaoguang, do you think my painting looks good?"
Xi'er ran over excitedly, holding a painting in her hand, which she said was a portrait she drew of Xin Xiaoguang.
Xin Xiaoguang took a look, and he knew it was him or not. Anyway, it all depended on his mouth. It made sense to say it was Lao Li, and there was nothing wrong with saying it was a ghost.
He originally came to work overtime today, but was caught by Zhang Tan. He was almost annoyed to death by these two all morning. He couldn't beat or scold him, so he could only coax him.
Originally, Zhang Tan entrusted him and Lao Li to take care of him together, but the two children didn't look for Lao Li, only him.
Xin Xiaoguang knew that it was because Lao Li gave them both a sip of the so-called special herbal tea, which poisoned the two children and they ran away and stopped playing with Lao Li at all.
Xin Xiaoguang was dealing with Xiaobai and Xi'er, especially the child Tan Xi'er, who was too enthusiastic and had too many questions. How could there be so many questions in his little head.
"Xiaobai, did your father say when he will be back?" Xin Xiaoguang asked. He wanted to run away quickly and hand over Xiaobai and Xi'er.
Xiaobai: "My old man said that he won't be back at noon and asked us to have dinner with you."
"What?!" Xin Xiaoguang almost jumped.
"Brother Xiaoguang, why are you so loud?" Xi'er was a little dissatisfied. She was startled just now.
Xin Xiaoguang couldn't care less about Xi'er's dissatisfaction. He was shocked by Zhang Tan's ruthless oppression of working-class people as a capitalist. He not only had to go to work to create value for his boss, but also used his weekends to take care of his boss's children.
"Then what do you have for lunch?" Xin Xiaoguang asked.
Xiaobai said: "We will eat whatever you eat, it's up to you~"
Xi'er agreed, nodded and said, "You can do whatever you want. We were full in the morning, and a little bit at noon will be enough."
Xin Xiaoguang wants to save some money for lunch, and has recently been saving money for a wedding gift to Teacher Xiao Yuan.
"Why don't you have lunch with Li Weibao? My lunch is very casual because I am losing weight and keeping in good shape."
Xiaobai and Xi'er gathered together to discuss, and just when they were about to come up with a result, they heard Lao Li say: "My lunch is indeed delicious. I plan to make cold noodles with herbal tea."
"Don't eat, don't eat, let's eat with brother Xiaoguang." Xi'er waved her hands quickly and refused to drink herbal tea with Lao Li. The bitter human cub was about to vomit out bile.
Xin Xiaoguang was speechless, looked at Lao Li, and could only say bitterly: "You are cruel, I don't believe you really use herbal tea to make cold noodles."
"If you don't believe me, I'll show you!"
Lao Li was so cruel to himself that he made cold noodles with herbal tea on the spot.
What else could Xin Xiaoguang say, he could only give him a thumbs up. In order to get rid of the two little tails, Lao Li risked his life.
He had to take Xiaobai and Xi'er out to find a place to eat in Huangjia Village.
They had just left the little red horse when a little girl carrying a red schoolbag walked out from the flower bed next to them.
It's Xiaofang.
She watched Xiaobai and Xi'er leave. She didn't call them, but continued walking forward and came to the door of the little red horse and looked up.
"Little Red Pony Late Night Academy is right here~there are many children there at night."
Xiao Fang muttered to herself, and before Lao Li noticed her, she walked through the door pretending to be nonchalant and arrived at the intersection of West Chang'an Street and Huangjia Village.
She looked around and saw busy traffic and numerous high-rise buildings. It seemed like two different worlds from Huangjiacun.
She wanted to go find her mother, but when she saw this scene, she couldn't help but feel scared. After thinking about it again and again, she turned around and went back...
She wandered around Huangjia Village all day long, and Xu Jun saw her several times because he followed his grandma to pick up bottles.
But when I chased him, I never found anyone.
The sky is getting darker, twilight is falling, and night has come earlier in Huangjia Village. In the criss-crossing alleys, shadows are scattered in all directions, especially in some remote alleys.
The central area of Huangjia Village is lively and lively, but the other larger peripheral areas are much deserted.
Xu Jun finally returned home after a busy day with his grandma. His father hadn't come home from work yet, but he called back half an hour ago and told them not to cook at night and that he would bring some delicious food back.
When he finished taking a bath, his father happened to come home and brought his favorite roast chicken, as well as grandma's favorite mapo tofu.
"Comrade, come and have dinner."
Xu Jun's father is a tall, sturdy man. He is from Shandong. After his divorce, he brought his mother and son to Pujiang to work.
Xu Jun was already hungry, but after smelling the smell of roast chicken, his appetite whetted his appetite.

Although it is hard, there is hope and a head for the family now, and everything will be fine.
While Xu Jun's father was picking up vegetables for his mother and son, he advised them not to pick up bottles in the future. It would be too hard in the hot weather.
He had always disapproved of his mother picking up bottles, but seeing her son working hard and being bored at home, his mother wandered around Huangjia Village picking up bottles and buying some small money. Maybe she could get Xu Jun's tuition for the next semester.
“It’s raining—it’s time to collect your clothes!”
Suddenly someone shouted outside the house, and then it became noisy, and people came out to pack their clothes.
"You guys eat, I'll collect your clothes."
Xu Jun's father put down his bowls and chopsticks and went out.
Xu Jun also walked out and stood under the eaves, feeling the night rain.
It was raining lightly, and soon my hair was covered in dense patches.
"Junzi! Come in quickly, don't get wet in the rain! You haven't finished your meal yet."
Inside the house, grandma was calling him.
But Xu Jun was unmoved. For some reason, the figure of Xiao Fang walking aimlessly in Huangjia Village carrying a small red schoolbag suddenly appeared in his mind.
Could it be that she hasn't come home yet?
The more Xu Jun thought about it, the more possible it became.
It's raining outside, where can she go?
Ever since he first saw Xiaofan, Xu Jun felt that this little girl was strange.
It's not like he's playing hide-and-seek with his good friends, it's more like... he was kicked out.
Thinking of this, Xu Jun ran home, took an umbrella and ran out.
His father ran out after him: "Junzi, what are you doing?"
"Dad~~~I'm going to find someone, you go back."
"Who are you looking for? It's dark."
Xu Jun did not answer. Seeing that his figure was about to disappear in the rain, his father also held an umbrella and followed him out.
"Who are you looking for this late at night?"
Xu Jun told him about the little cockroach he saw during the day.
When Xu Jun's father heard this, he immediately separated from him and looked for him in another direction.
It was dark at this time, it was raining, and the road was already wet. It was very difficult to find a child.
Xu Jun went to several places where he had encountered Xiaofeng during the day and called her name while searching.
