Xie Yan smiled and said, "Dad knows. I was just a little excited and couldn't help it. I'll definitely hold back next time."

With her hands behind her back, Chaochao walked with a pigeon-toed gait and nodded arrogantly.

Xie Yan was completely charmed by her adorable appearance.

Aaaaaaah!

Whose daughter is so cute!

Oh! It's from my house.

Xie Yan looked up, took her daughter's hand, and said, "Chao Chao, are you sleepy? Do you want to go to sleep now?"

Chaochao wanted to say she wasn't sleepy, but then she remembered that her mother was going to sleep, so she nodded and asked, "Then Daddy and Mommy, will you sleep with me?"

Xie Yan nodded, "Okay! Let's go take a nap together."

Yu Yue had just finished feeding the chickens and pigs at home and washed her hands when she saw the father and daughter coming out of the kitchen hand in hand. "Are you done washing up?"

Xie Yan nodded, "Hurry up, let me tell you, our Chaochao is super amazing. Today, with her helping me wash, look, the speed has increased by a lot."

Yu Yuehui's lips twitched. This was the first time she had ever seen a parent trick such a tiny little one into doing chores. The child was not even two years old, yet they were already enslaving him. It was practically like a stepfather.

The key point is that the person who was fooled was still looking at her with a silly, happy expression. Looking at those bright, sparkling eyes looking at her, Yu Yuehui praised her insincerely, "Really? No wonder it was so fast today. It turns out that Chaochao helped us."

"Chaochao is simply amazing."

If Chaochao were a few years older, she would have noticed that her mother's praise was very stiff, but since she was still a two-year-old, she didn't notice at all.

They lost themselves in such praise, thinking they were amazing and had made a huge contribution to their family.

Smiling broadly, she patted her little chest and replied to Yu Yue, "Mommy, I'm a really great kid now! You can ask me for help if you ever need anything!"

Yu Yue walked over and picked her up. "You're such a great little Chaochao. Do you want to come to sleep with Mommy?"

Chaochao hugged Yu Yuehui's neck, "I want it."

When Xie Yan woke up from her afternoon nap, Yu Yuehui had already gone to work.

Looking at Chaochao, who was still sleeping soundly, Xie Yan quietly got up, washed his face, and after waking up a bit, picked up the book he hadn't finished reading that morning and started reading again.

When Chaochao woke up, it was almost 3 p.m.

She woke up without making a fuss. After sitting on the kang for a while and fully waking up, she asked Xie Yan in a low voice, "Dad, is there any laundry that needs washing?"

Hearing Chaochao's voice, Xie Yan put down the book in her hand and put it away. "No! Baby, you forgot that we both took a bath yesterday."

Chaochao unconsciously rubbed a few tufts of hair that were sticking up, sat on the kang (a heated brick bed) and smiled innocently, saying shyly, "I forgot."

Xie Yan smiled upon seeing this, walked over, and gently picked the person up. "It's alright, you've forgotten, so be it. How are you? Are you hungry?"

Chaochao touched her belly and said in a childish voice, "I'm a little hungry."

Xie Yan carried her to the handwashing area, washed her hands, and said, "Come wash your hands, then we'll go eat something delicious."

Xie Yan took out the steamed egg custard from the pot and handed her a small spoon, saying, "Eat slowly, Daddy will go make you some formula."

Holding the steamed egg custard, Chaochao said to Xie Yan, "Dad, make a bottle."

Xie Yanzhen was washing her baby bottles when she heard this and smiled, asking, "Thirsty?"

He nodded repeatedly.

After feeding and playing with little Chaochao, Xie Yan put a straw hat he had specially woven for her on her head and said, "Come on, Daddy will take you out to play."

Chaochao, with her childlike spirit, jumped up instantly at the mention of going out to play.

They didn't even need Xie Yan to lead them; they ran to the door ahead of time.

Xie Yan laughed at her mischievous, unleashed appearance. "Slow down, wait for Dad at the door, I'll go get the key and lock."

"Okay~" came from outside the door.

Xie Yan was having a headache. Chaochao was really good at everything, but as soon as they went out to play, she would instantly start partying.

When Xie Yan came out, he saw Chaochao playing with stones. He walked over and took her hand. "Come on, take your dad out to play today."

"Wow~, really?" Chaochao was a little incredulous.

Xie Yan nodded, "You know that Dad doesn't have as many friends in the village as you do. This time, Dad is counting on you to take care of him."

Chaochao immediately smiled and said, "It's okay, Dad. I'll take care of you. Don't be sad. I have a lot of friends. I can introduce them to you."

Xie Yan sighed, but that was unnecessary.

Fearing that his daughter might actually introduce Xie Yan, he quickly said, "No need. Although Dad doesn't have many friends, it's enough. You know Dad is very busy and doesn't have much time to make friends."

Chaochao kicked the pebble away. "That's right. Dad, if you can't find anyone to play with, just ask Chaochao. Chaochao will play with you."

Xie Yan nodded, "Okay! Then I'll rely on Chaochao from now on."

He nodded solemnly each time.

The two went out but hadn't found Chaochao's good friend yet. Instead, they spotted some Chinese medicinal herbs. It was Chaochao who saw them. She ran over and waved mysteriously at Xie Yan, looking like she'd seen something incredible.

Xie Yan thought someone had dropped money, but when she went over to check, she found it was plantain and honeysuckle.

Xie Yan gave Chaochao a thumbs up, "Chaochao is so amazing. Wait for Dad to break off a branch and pull out these medicinal herbs."

Chaochao nodded and obediently stood in place waiting for Xie Yan.

After Xie Yan pulled out the medicinal herbs, his hands were covered in dirt. He then instructed Chao Chao to pick some leaves from the trees nearby to wipe the dirt off his hands.

A few elderly men in the village, who had nothing better to do than wander around, saw Xie Yan and her father, and their wicked instincts kicked in. "Oh my, Chaochao is so young, yet she's already taking care of her father?"

Chaochao thought that someone was praising her, and she smiled sweetly at those people.

Xie Yan disliked the way these people teased the child, but he didn't say anything, since they were all elderly folks.

Seeing that Chaochao wasn't shy like the other children, the other old man spoke up again, "Chaochao, is it hard taking care of your father?"

Chaochao opened her eyes wide, looked at the leaf in her hand, and was a little confused as to why picking a leaf was hard work, but she still smiled and said, "Grandpa, I'm not tired, Dad is the one who's tired. I'm just picking a leaf, it's not hard work at all. Chaochao is very capable and can do many, many things."

After speaking, she raised her little face, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Xie Yan, as if seeking praise.

Xie Yan was overjoyed and took the leaf from Chaochao's hand, saying, "Thank you, Chaochao."

Seeing that she had helped her father again, Chaochao happily circled around Xie Yan.

The old man who had just spoken looked at the fair-skinned little Chaochao with eyes full of affection.

The little girl was exquisitely beautiful, just like a doll in a New Year's painting, incredibly cute. He couldn't help but say to Xie Yan, "Girls need to be taught well, so they can become virtuous and marry into a good family in the future."
