Living in a Siheyuan

Chapter 177 Returning home

After dealing with the affairs in Kangaroo Country, Li Ping'an wandered for another half a month before returning to Hong Kong.

That evening, when Yu Li and her friends were preparing to have dinner, they saw Li Ping'an coming in with a suitcase.

Suddenly, both adults and children in the family became excited.

The children were the first to react and rushed over.

"Dad, you're back!"

"Dad, why did you just come back?"

"Dad, I miss you!"

Looking at the lovely children in front of him, Li Pingan also showed a gratified smile.

He squatted down and stroked their heads one by one.

"Daddy misses you too, come and let daddy hug you."

After saying that, he hugged the children one by one.

Yu Li, Lou Xiaoe and Miyuko stood behind the children, looking at Li Pingan with joy on their faces.

After comforting the children, Li Pingan walked up and said, "Don't you miss me?"

Yu Li rolled her eyes at him and said, "We don't miss you. You've been gone for more than half a year. You don't have this family or us in your heart. Why should we miss you?"

Li Ping'an knew that Yu Li was dissatisfied with him being away for so long.

"Although I am away from home, I am thinking about you all every day. If you don't believe me, feel my heart. It is thinking about you all the time."

Yu Li said angrily: "Go away! I won't touch you anymore. Who knows if you are thinking about someone else outside?"

These words made Li Pingan's heart suddenly jump. Are women's intuitions so accurate?

Before Li Ping'an could argue, Lou Xiao'e came up and hugged Li Ping'an and said, "It's okay. If Sister Li doesn't touch you, I'll do it. Let me see if your heart is still at home."

As he said that, he put his hand into Li Ping'an's clothes and touched him randomly. This made Li Ping'an angry. He grabbed the restless little paw.

He said angrily, "Does your heart grow in your stomach? Where did you touch it?"

These words made Miyuko at the back laugh so hard that she covered her mouth with her hands.

"It's okay. Just let Sister Xiao'e check you out to see if you've been dishonest outside."

Li Pingan said angrily: "Miyuko, you have also learned bad things from them. You were not like this before!"

Seeing that they were still playing around, Lou's mother said, "Okay, Ping An just came back. You can ask him to go wash up, change clothes, and come over for dinner. I guess he hasn't had a good meal since he was out for so long."

After hearing this, Li Pingan immediately flattered her and said, "Mom, you are still good to me. I have been missing the delicious meals at home for the past six months."

"You have no idea how I've been living for the past six months. Every day I eat bread and pickles. Or I eat half-cooked beef or mutton. I drool when I think of the food at home."

Lou's mother had no resistance to Li Ping'an's flattery.

After hearing what Li Ping'an said, she quickly said lovingly: "Hey, I was wondering why Ping'an looked thinner, it turns out you've suffered so much. Then go and wash up quickly, I'll ask Liu Mi to cook a few more of your favorite dishes."

After that, he turned to Yu Li, Lou Xiaoe and the others and said, "You are so grown up, why don't you know how to be considerate of Ping An? Go and pack up Ping An quickly. Ask him to come to eat early."

The three girls who were scolded by Lou's mother all stuck out their tongues at her, then pulled Li Ping'an upstairs.

However, Lou Xiaoe and Yu Li's hands reached out to his waist, grabbed the tender flesh on Li Ping'an's waist, and twisted it hard.

Li Pingan gasped in pain. He was about to scream when Miyuko covered his mouth.

The three women dragged Li Pingan up to the third floor.

Li Pingan is really in pain and happy.

But when they got upstairs, Yu Li went to get clean clothes for Li Pingan, and Lou Xiaoe helped him take off his clothes. Miyuko had already gone to the bathroom to run him some hot water.

Enjoying the services of his three wives, Li Pingan feels that home is the best.

After taking a bath with lots of fun, Li Ping'an took the three girls downstairs.

At this time, Lou Zhenghua also came back.

Seeing Li Pingan, Lou Zhenghua said, "I guess you will be back soon. How is it going? Has the Kangaroo Country dealt with it?"

"Dad, don't worry. With Lu Dehua in Kangaroo Country, there won't be any problems. We can recruit more people and send them over there. There is a severe shortage of people there right now."

Lou Zhenghua nodded and said, "Okay, I'm already preparing for this. You don't have to worry about it. Just take a good rest these few days."

Li Ping'an chatted with Lou Zhenghua for a few words, then opened a large suitcase he had brought back.

He took out two small boxes and said, "Dad, this is a gift I brought for you and Mom. One is a hundred-year-old ginseng and a ganoderma. Cut some and soak them in water to drink. It's good for your health."

Lou Zhenghua and his mother opened the box and were very happy to see the ginseng and ganoderma lucidum inside. Li Ping'an, the son-in-law, was so filial. He never forgot to bring gifts for himself when he went out.

Lou Zhenghua smiled and said, "Your mother and I are both in good health. There's no need to waste such a good thing. Let's keep it for now. It may be able to save lives in the future."

Lou's mother also agreed, "Yes, our bodies don't need these yet. Let's talk about it later. It's better to put them away."

These are all in Li Pingan's space, and there are many older than this one. Li Pingan doesn't care at all.

"It's okay, Mom and Dad. I can get this thing later. Just use it without worry."

After saying that, he took out three more boxes.

He gave one to each of his three wives.

"These are the gems I bought in Kangaroo Country. I made a set of jewelry for each of you. There are necklaces, earrings, rings, bracelets and so on. Take a look for yourselves."

Yu Li and the other two opened the box, and inside was a set of exquisitely crafted jewelry that was extremely beautiful.

Yu Li's outfit was red, Lou Xiaoe's was pink, and Miyuko's was blue.

The three women held the jewelry set and loved it so much that they couldn't let it go. The bold Lou Xiao'e gave Li Ping'an a kiss.

Miyuko looked at it and secretly kissed Li Pingan on the face.

Yu Li was more conservative after all. She was not as shameless as the other two to kiss Li Ping'an in front of the whole family.

Seeing that the adults had received their gifts, the children became anxious.

Li Haoran and Li Haoyu took the lead, pulling Li Ping'an's trouser legs and said, "Dad, where are our gifts?"

"Yes, Dad, we want gifts too."

Even Li Jingyi, Li Jingyao and Li Jingyan looked at Li Pingan eagerly.

Li Pingan smiled and said, "How could Dad not bring you gifts? I'll get them for you right away."

After saying that, he took out a bunch of gifts from the suitcase.

The gifts for his three daughters were Barbie dolls, which were very cute. He bought them specially from Kitty Hawk.

The three daughters each held one and loved them very much.

The gifts for the five sons were a bit mixed. Li Pingan brought them car models, Lego, and some small doll toys.

Each of the five brothers grabbed an item they liked and started playing with it.

They all shouted, "Thank you, Dad!"

"Dad, you are so nice!"

Soon, Li Ping'an was lost in the childish sounds of praise.

It was not until Lou's mother came over and called everyone to eat that the group of little guys let Li Ping'an go.

At the dinner table, Lou's mother kept picking up food for Li Ping'an, asking him to eat more.

Li Ping'an really missed the food at home.

This time he went out without Liu Mi and Lu Dehua, and he ran around everywhere by himself.

Most of the time, I just eat a simple meal. Although I can cook some food in the space, eating alone is not as delicious as eating with the whole family.

Lou Zhenghua also opened the wine and asked Li Pingan to drink a few glasses with him.

At the dinner table, Li Pingan picked out the places he could talk about and told everyone about his travels. He also told everyone about some famous attractions in Western countries.

Everyone heard that they really wanted to go and see it.

Seeing this, Li Pingan said, "Don't worry, when the children have their holidays, we can take some time to go over and play. It can also be considered as a way to broaden the children's horizons."

The little ones were very happy to hear that they could go out and play.

But Li Pingan immediately said, "However, I will check your practice tomorrow. If anyone has not practiced well, then we will not go."

"And if we don't learn well, then we will cancel this plan."

Hearing this, several children immediately started wailing.

"Dad, how could you be like this?"

"Yeah, Dad, you're cheating!"

Mother Lou watched Li Ping'an playing with the children with a smile.

Yu Li said sternly: "This matter is up to your father. If one of you fails to meet the requirements, then we will cancel the plan to go out and no one can go."

Li Haoyang said unwillingly: "Why?"

Yu Li added sternly, "Because you are sisters and brothers. You must unite and help each other. Those who are good at studying should help those who are not so good at studying. Only in this way can you make progress together."

Lou Zhenghua also nodded. Yu Li was a real prosperous wife. Although Yu Li called him godfather, he still admired women like her.

Not to mention being able to accommodate Lou Xiaoe and Meiyouzi, she treated all the children equally. She would clean up when it was time to clean up, and reward when it was time to reward. She would never show partiality to any one of them.

So the children really love and fear this old lady.

Seeing Yu Li getting angry, the group of little guys immediately became quiet.

At this time, Lou Xiaoe said, "Okay, from today on, you will help each other and study together. I believe you are all smart children. After the exam, we will go out to play together."

With the reward, the children really knew how to work hard. After dinner, several little guys crowded together to do their homework.

Li Haoyang also helps his younger brothers and sisters with their homework.

Li Pingan looked at this scene with satisfaction. This is the happiness of family.
