Third Brother said: "Actually, they're all the same. It's just that Juanjuan is more skilled at making them, but they're not as delicious as the pre-made dishes I have in my space that I haven't unlocked yet!"

Juanjuan was biting into the pancake.

See? Third Brother said that neither she nor Second Brother cooks good food.

So, Bai Yun'an, who had just complimented Xiao Juanjuan, was surprised to see that her favorability rating had dropped from 1 to 0.

Bai Yun'an: ...

【No way! I... damn it! What's wrong with this kid?!】

[Praise isn't enough, do I have to resort to physical threats?]

[System, what do you mean by this? You created such an annoying kid! I'm here to enjoy myself! Don't you understand what enjoying myself means?!]

I've had enough! What kind of pancakes are these? Open-air toilets, such backward conditions, and these damn stubborn kids!

[And this frail body!]

"I'm stuffed."

Juanjuan suddenly stood up, ignoring the questioning looks from her parents and brothers, and turned to leave.

She didn't want to hear what her third brother had to say anymore.

Watching the little guy get up and huff and puff as he left.

Bai Tian blinked, puzzled, and asked Jiang Dai, "What's wrong with Juanjuan?"

Ultimately, he simply didn't understand the little girl's thoughts.

Jiang Dai blinked, and seeing that she was also confused, she hesitated slightly before saying, "Could it be because..."

Jiang Dai recalled the scene before Juanjuan's abnormality, and her gaze fell on Bai Yun'an, who was the last to speak to Juanjuan.

Bai Yun'an: ...

No, why is it about him again?

He just sincerely praised the little guy for cooking well.

They even stepped on the second-in-command, using the tactic of belittling the weak and praising the strong!

We can't blame him for this!

"Could it be because the third brother didn't praise the second brother's cooking?"

Bai Tian:......

What am I expecting?

Jiang Dai quickly took a few bites of the pancake, then stood up: "I'll go take a look!"

Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary adults, the sudden departure of a child is not a big deal.

But in Jiang Dai's eyes, as her mother, she had to go and see.

Perhaps in ancient times, no one cared about a child's psychological and emotional changes; as long as the child didn't starve, nothing else mattered.

But Jiang Dai was different.

She understands that children are not objects; even the youngest child is a person with feelings and thoughts.

Even adults can get stuck on trivial matters!

Children need more attention to their emotions.

so……

"Raising a child is such a hassle! And now there are four! Exciting!"

Jiang Dai's quiet, devastated complaints.

But when she came to Juanjuan, she had already composed herself.

Watching the chicks cleaning the chicken coop, Jiang Dai said, "Juanjuan~"

Juanjuan turned to look at her mother, seemingly knowing why her mother had chased after her.

"Mother, I'm alright."

Jiang Dai: [Who would believe that! I certainly don't.]

Jiang Dai tentatively asked, "Did your third brother say something that offended you?"

Juanjuan was clearly taken aback, not expecting her mother to have guessed it.

In the eyes of adults, what children are thinking is very obvious and cannot be hidden at all.

Jiang Dai: [Looks like I guessed right!]

Now I finally understand why I couldn't fool my mom when I was little; these little tricks were so obvious.

Seeing that her mother had already guessed it, Juanjuan stopped arguing.

Jiang Dai: "Can Juanjuan tell her mother why she doesn't like Third Brother anymore?"

If I remember correctly, the third brother seemed to be praising Juanjuan just now, without mentioning that the second brother cooked, but saying that Juanjuan's cooking wasn't good.

[If it was a compliment, why is Juanjuan still unhappy?]

Juanjuan looked at her mother, wanting to say that her third brother didn't really mean it, that it was all a lie, but the child held back.

The child thought for a moment before saying, "Third Brother doesn't tell the truth. He always lies to me. Actually, he doesn't like me. I overheard him talking about it last time."

"Just say it directly, don't waste your time!"

Bai Tian's voice came from behind.

Jiang Dai's eyes lit up, but she quickly frowned slightly and muttered to herself, "Internal strife..."

Wait, the term "internal strife" existed in ancient times? Really?

Jiang Dai looked at her cheap husband squatting beside her and tentatively asked, "Internal strife?"

Bai Tian nodded: "Yes, internal friction! As the name suggests, it means that you are consuming yourself internally. The typical symptom is that you keep something in your heart and it wears you down."

Juanjuan: ...I still didn't quite understand.

Jiang Dai: [Wait, this explanation...]
