Grass spread out the blanket and sunshade tools she had brought on an open space, put the small stone on her back on it, and asked Stone to put Niu Niu on it as well.

As soon as Shi Tou put her down, Liu Huan rolled over, startled by her own reaction. She lay there dazed, wondering what had just happened.

Seeing this, Shi Tou quickly turned her over and hugged her, checking if she was injured anywhere.

Cao'er exclaimed, "Niu Niu can roll over now!"

While eating, Su's father said to his wife, "This girl is smart. She loves to laugh even at such a young age, and she can already roll over. I remember that Shi Tou didn't roll over until he was six months old."

Mother Su smiled from ear to ear, "This baby grew up on my milk, it can't be bad."

Liu Huan, who was not far behind, was now tightly gripping Shi Tou's clothes with both hands, burying her head in his chest and nuzzling around, looking extremely aggrieved.

Stone gently pulled her head out and patiently coaxed her, "It's alright, it's just turning over, don't be afraid."

He's become incredibly skilled at coaxing children over the past few months, even more patient than Cao'er.

When Liu Huan came to her senses, she put her back on the bed. This time she was no longer afraid and tried to turn over again, but the result was the same. Once she turned over, she couldn't turn back.

Shi Tou reluctantly flipped through the pages several times for her, and when she was about to flip them again, he threatened, "If you flip them again, I'll hit you."

Liu Huan admitted defeat and obediently lay down, shaking the rattle drum that his older brother had made.

Only then did Stone feel relieved enough to go and pull some grass from the side.

Liu Huan enjoyed this feeling; there was no work pressure, no family urging her to get married, and she could laugh when she was happy and cry when she was unhappy.

I have everything done for me, and I have a wonderful family.

What an amazing life! She'd love to stay a baby forever.

But... being too small isn't good either, like right now, my foot is being grabbed by that brat again.

I kicked and kicked again.

Oh no, that hurts!

Just cry, "Aaaaaaaahhhhhh!"

Da Shi, who was closest, heard the noise and rushed over to rescue her. "Xiao Shi, I've told you so many times, you can't bite Niu Niu's feet."

Seeing that Niu Niu was still crying, I picked up her little foot and looked at it. "Oh dear, it's scraped."

Stone had been observing the commotion, and when he heard that the skin had broken, he quickly dropped the grass he was holding and came over. He saw his older brother wiping saliva on Niu Niu's wound.

He was heartbroken. He took the little foot in his hand and wiped away the drool, saying, "Brother, don't wipe it with drool next time. A little cut won't hurt."

Da Shi smiled honestly and kindly: "Oh, I saw my mother apply it to Xiao Shi like this too, hehe, hehe."

Shi Tou didn't say anything. He took out a pair of small socks from the blanket next to him and put them on her. Then he wiped away her tears and scolded her with a smile, "You're useless. All you know how to do is cry."

Liu Huan saw the heartache in his eyes and chuckled inwardly, "Hmph, you little brat, you're just being stubborn."

Even at this moment, she didn't forget to win people over, raising her hands and pouting as if she wanted a hug, tears welling up in her eyes as if they were about to spill out at any moment.

Left with no other choice, Shi Tou picked her up, and she promptly smeared his face with tears and saliva.

She was secretly pleased with herself, thinking that it was good to have won the male lead's favor since childhood, because she would be his beloved younger sister in the future.

Seeing this, Su's father sighed, "Shitou, you should take Niu Niu back. The two of them are too naughty together."

Shi Tou shook his head. "Just separate the two of them." He took the blanket and sunshade that belonged to Liu Huan, went to the patch of weeds he was pulling, and put her on the ground.

"Behave yourself, or I won't take you out next time."

Liu Huan looked at him and grinned foolishly, clearly having been called an idiot again.

As he turned around to pull the grass, he rolled over and watched the ants passing by.

I grabbed it and stared at it for a long time. They say even the smallest ant is still meat, but is that really true?

It should be fine to just put it in your mouth and taste it without swallowing, right?

The little hand was put into its mouth, and then it fell out.

Pick them up again, repeating this process several times, until the ant is split in two.

She even got into a tug-of-war with the ants, refusing to believe she couldn't put them in her mouth.

"Stone, look and see if Niu Niu is eating something?"

Startled, Liu Huan dropped what she was holding—the pills!

Sure enough, Stone pried open her mouth and looked at it closely. "What did you eat? Spit it out."

Seeing nothing, he checked her hands again and found dead ants between her fingers. After cleaning them, he slapped her hand.

"Are you going to eat here again next time?"

Liu Huan felt a slight pain in her hand and wanted to cry out that she was innocent. She really didn't want to eat it; she just wanted to see what it tasted like.

Who can control a baby's behavior? Let's take back what we said earlier; being a baby isn't easy.

Seeing that she was in a lot of pain but wasn't crying, Shi Tou softened.

He started reasoning: "You know you can't eat everything, right? What if you get sick from eating it?"

Hitting someone and then trying to reason with them—isn't that what modern parents do? But it's so gentle, what's wrong with that?

They worked until sunset, and seeing that it was getting late, Su's mother told Cao'er to take them back to cook.

Liu Huan almost burst into tears. Finally, she could go home. The little bit of rice porridge in her stomach had long been digested. If she didn't eat it soon, the baby would die.

Seeing that she was listless and weak, Shi Tou assumed that she had eaten something bad.

It was Cao'er who reminded her, "She hasn't eaten for several hours, she's probably starving. Hurry back and get her some rice porridge."

Stone didn't carry her on his back, but carried her in front of him, checking on her condition frequently.

On the way, they ran into a gossipy aunt from the village. She lifted the blanket and kept looking at the baby: "Is this the little girl you picked up? She's quite pretty."

Shi Tou ignored her and carried Liu Huan home.

The gossipy man spat behind them, "Pah, penniless and still supporting outsiders, let's see how long you can keep doing that."

She was waiting for the Su family to be unable to afford to raise her so she could ask for her herself. Judging from her appearance, she was sure to grow up to be good-looking, and she might even be able to sell her for a good price in town.

But this idea was destined to fail.

From that day on, Liu Huan unlocked a new skill: turning the tables!

I can wake myself up even at night.

There was even one time when Shi Tou wasn't around, and she got so caught up in playing that she rolled off the bed and bumped her head, getting a huge bump.

The crying drew Shi Tou in. He was horrified to see her sprawled on the ground. He picked her up and saw a large bump on her head.

The little boy, who was originally quite grown-up, was so frightened that he hugged her and cried loudly until Su's mother saw that he was alright and said that he stopped crying.

That incident not only terrified Shi Tou, but also terrified Liu Huan herself.

This is ancient times! If you were to fall and suffer a brain hemorrhage, you'd be finished.

It even saddened a future high-ranking official; what a sin!

From then on, she never dared to turn over casually again.

Seeing her like that, Shi Tou thought she was frightened, so he would put the blanket on the ground each time and let her rummage through it. If it got dirty, she could wash it herself.

Su's mother said to just put it on the ground so that she wouldn't have to wash the swaddle blanket, but he still refused.

I said I didn't want Niu Niu to get dirty.

Liu Huan even chuckled to herself that he was a Virgo and had obsessive-compulsive disorder about cleanliness.

However, I felt quite pleased with myself, because even as a baby, I was always clean every day.
