Three ran after his mother, and whenever he saw her throwing snowflakes, he'd follow suit and throw them at whoever she was throwing them at. He'd throw snowflakes at his oldest brother, then his second oldest brother, and finally, except for Six, who was on the ground making little snowballs himself, he didn't throw them at anyone else...

"I didn't realize that the eldest sister is quite childish." Cheng Zhenyu couldn't help muttering as she watched the eldest sister leading a few kids to play in the snow, like a child king.

Her older sister was truly different. Perhaps it had been so long since they'd seen each other, she could barely remember what she used to be like. But seeing an older sister this happy was rare in her memory. And the idea for the house was actually from her older sister, which was quite magical...

"Very good." Zhao Fangrui said while holding the bowl of food.

"I think it's great, too," Wang Xiaomei nodded. It was clear that her second aunt truly loved children. Little Tiger went there this summer and kept saying how great his second aunt was. He said he'd go again next year...

It didn’t take long to make breakfast, and soon the kids, whose cheeks were rosy from playing, were called back into the house by Cheng Fugui to eat noodles.

The boys and girls scooped up their bowls of fish in unison and ran out. Liu Tiao, who was still waiting to be fed and not very full, was getting anxious.

San Tiao finished two noodles, then took a leisurely sip of the soup and said softly, "Niao Tiao, don't be impatient."

Liu Tiao knew that his brother San Tiao was always slow, and when he realized that he was also so slow, he cried out in anxiety. He grabbed a mouthful of noodles with his little mouthful and was about to get down to the ground.

"Liu Tiao, are you full?" Cheng Zhenzhu grabbed the anxious little guy.

"Yeah~" Liu Tiao nodded.

"Okay, go ahead. We won't have lunch until lunch." Cheng Zhenzhu waved her hand.

After hearing this, the six short legs that had just taken a step back immediately pinched their thick cotton clothes and said, "My belly, gurgling~"

Liu Tiao's quick reaction once again made Cheng Fugui and Zhao Fangrui laugh. What a funny guy. San Tiao was also serious and funny...

The heavy snow lasted for two days.

The little kids played snowball fights for two days in a row and built snowmen under the leadership of Cheng Zhenzhu.

San Tiao looked at the little snowman who looked a bit like his beloved snowman doll, took off the tiger-head hat on his head, and wanted to put it on the snowman's big head.

Liu Tiao saw the two black holes where the snowman's eyes were and stood on tiptoe, trying to pick them out. Unable to do so, he asked his brothers to hold him...

A few more days of happy time passed amid the laughter of the kids.

The letter of introduction was about to expire, and school was about to start, so Cheng Zhenzhu and his group had to go back.

When they were going back, Cheng Zhenbao wanted to send it off, but Cheng Zhenzhu refused, saying that she could do it herself.

She was truly amazing. When she appeared on Sanshi Island, leading her four children and dragging a large snakeskin bag, everyone who saw her couldn't help but give her a thumbs-up and say, "You're so amazing!"

Fortunately, Cheng Zhenzhu separated from her husband's family. Otherwise, her parents would be crying to death if she had to take care of four big kids and ask for a whole snakeskin bag of things from her parents' home.

Emptying her natal family to support her husband's family would be heartbreaking for anyone...

But it's really enviable! With such a mother's family to support her, Cheng Zhenzhu can afford to raise two more children!

There was one thing they'd been puzzled about. No matter how they looked at it, they felt the Aiqing family was treating the child Comrade Lu had sent as their own. Everything their own three children had, the little one had too: clothes, shoes, hats, food—all in four equal portions.

Many mothers are not so good!

So, I don't know if the five yuan Comrade Lu gave me was enough? Did he give me extra money? I think he came here twice last year...

Cheng Zhenzhu naturally didn't know what others were thinking. After fooling a few cute little kids, she went home carrying the snakeskin bag.

I haven't been home for more than half a month, and the house is a little dusty.

"Woof woof woof?"

"Four or five?"

He brought one or two dogs into the house, and looked for four or five dogs but couldn't find any. He then remembered that his mother had asked Aunt Yumei to help raise the dogs first, so he said goodbye to their mother and went to pick up the dogs.

Cheng Zhenzhu opened the snakeskin bag and pulled out a pound of candy, biscuits, and some glutinous rice noodles wrapped in a paper bag, asking the two brothers to carry it up. "One, two, do you know how to get Aunt Yumei to accept it?"

"I know." Peng Ertiao patted his chest, "Don't worry, Mom, it's all right."

Peng Yitiao held something and said, "Brother, let's go."

Liu Tiao saw his two brothers walking out as soon as they came home, and he immediately wanted to follow them. When he was not allowed to follow, he held onto one of his brothers' legs and wouldn't let go.

"Let's go, let's go..." Peng Yitiao was a little helpless.

Alas, it’s because he chose this brother!

Liu Tiao suddenly stood up, with a triumphant look on his face, and happily stretched out his hands to let the things be carried.

Cheng Zhenzhu smiled, carried the sleeping San Tiao into the house, took off his coat and shoes, and put him to bed.

"Mom~" A few of them came back soon, bringing back four or five cats wagging their tails wildly, and also brought back a letter.

The letter was sent from Caoshi.
