Four-year-old Juanjuan was unloved by her father, ignored by her mother, and bullied by her older brothers. Left to shoulder the burden of a broken family all on her own.
Then one day, her pa...
Juanjuan blinked: "Strength? The strength for doing chores?"
Bai Yunqi: ...
[An uneducated child.]
Looking at his young sister, Bai Yunxing could only think that she was indeed innocent and adorable.
Bai Yun'an's hand had already quietly reached for his elder brother's bowl of egg drop soup.
It looks like it's about to touch.
But someone suddenly slapped his hand.
"Hey!"
Bai Yunqi looked at his third brother and declared his ownership: "This is mine! Why are you so cheeky with your hands!"
Bai Yun'an: ...
How come this person reacted so quickly?
Bai Yunqi: [What a joke! Trying to lay a hand on a cultivation master right under his nose! You brat!]
Juanjuan: ...
Sometimes, listening to my brothers whispering to each other makes me feel quite helpless.
"If this sweet potato is really as Mother says, and others don't know how to eat it, then the entire dynasty's grain production will increase."
"When a dynasty has grain, it has confidence, and it will not be afraid to send troops to attack other countries."
Bai Yunqi asked his younger brother and sister in front of him.
"Did you understand?"
Juanjuan: "I think I understand."
Bai Yunxing nodded, but thought to himself: [This Gou Dan is only eight years old, yet he can think of so much? He's a promising talent.]
Bai Yun'an nodded obediently, revealing an expression of admiration.
But inwardly he scoffed.
"You think you're so clever? Fine, I'll just play along. Consider it playing with a fool."
Juanjuan: So Second Brother and Third Brother already knew, but she didn't know why Mother brought them out?
but……
Juanjuan raised her hand: "Then why are we being asked to leave?"
What does this have to do with Mother telling them to come out for dinner?
Three brilliant minds of different ages and backgrounds: ...
Big brother: "Little sister, let's eat."
Third Brother: "They're probably afraid we'll tell everyone about the sweet potatoes."
Only the second brother thought for a moment, then patiently and reliably said to Juanjuan, "Juanjuan, don't tell anyone about the sweet potato incident, the money the brothers found, or the sister who came to our house today, okay?"
Juanjuan swallowed the biscuit in her mouth: "Hmm, I won't tell."
The little guy's mind raced, almost spinning out of control, and he tentatively asked, "Mom let us out because she was afraid we'd tell everyone about selling sweet potatoes, right?"
“Others will take advantage of us when they find out we have money, just like how Dad used to always try to scam the family next door, the one with the big hammer.”
The analogy isn't quite accurate, but the meaning is similar.
Bai Yunqi: "He's not stupid, there's still hope."
Juanjuan: ...
Bai Yun'an seized the opportunity to curry favor: "Our Juanjuan is so smart."
[But when I was four, I was already killing zombies, though I was still a bit behind.]
Juanjuan: ...
Bai Yunxing nodded: "Juanjuan is really smart."
Four-year-old Juanjuan is so smart, even without any early education; she seems smarter than her younger cousin before.
Juanjuan smiled at her second brother, looking obedient, like a soft, fluffy little dog.
Bai Yunxing couldn't help but reach out and pinch the child's cheeks, which weren't very fleshy.
[Juanjuan is too thin. We need to fatten up the kids in the future. Chubby kids are cuter and more robust.]
The third brother, waiting to increase his favorability: (▼皿▼#)
Why does it seem like Baiyunxing and Juanjuan have a very good relationship now?
no!
He wants to increase his favorability!
"Let's go, Second Brother, you go wash the pots, I'll go with Juanjuan to collect the laundry!"
Juanjuan: "I want to go brush..."
Bai Yun'an pulled the child into her arms: "No, you don't want to!"
Juanjuan stubbornly reached out her hand, trying to get her second brother to save her.
Bai Yunxing suddenly looked up at the doorway.
At the same time.
Bai Yunqi and Bai Yunan also looked towards the doorway.
