Kujo blinked and scratched his head. Not here? He's clearly here...

"Dong dong, dong dong, dong dong..." Jiu Tiao continued, calling his brothers "Lazy Ju Ju" in different tones.

Then the noisy little fellow was taken to bed by his brothers, who squinted their eyes and put on some clothes casually, and squeezed and rubbed him. Yitiao and Ertiao also jumped out of bed and told Jiutiao to learn about the dangers of society.

Cheng Zhenzhu glanced around the room and saw Jiu Tiao getting into the bed with the other two and returning to his bed to take a nap. Children are always full of energy, unlike her, who is older and prone to lack of sleep...

"Roar, roar, roar~ Whoosh, whoosh~" The cold wind was blowing outside. The few people in the room looked at the dim sky outside, covered themselves with quilts and continued to sleep.

Jiu Tiao had originally wanted to go out and play, but when he heard his brothers say there would be something delicious to eat when he woke up, he gave up the idea of ​​sneaking out of bed to play. He curled up his little feet and squeezed in with his brothers, thinking about the delicious food for a while, and then fell asleep...

At the same time, Zhao Fangrui and her group, who were far away in Hai City, were preparing to pack up and leave in two days.

"Mom, the three Nis should go together. The third Ni is making a fuss and insists on going. The first and second Ni also want to go. Jiawang should come with us. Otherwise, if he goes back over there, he will become his mother's son again..." Cheng Zhenyu came to tell her mother about the new plan early in the morning and brought some things with her.

She originally wanted to let her husband take care of the three daughters at home, and she would take the little lion to live there for a few days to relax and enjoy the food.

She wasn't exaggerating. Her eldest sister's secret wine was truly a nourishing and good thing. If she hadn't known it was made by her eldest sister, she would have thought it was some magical wine from a book.

The wine tastes sweet and refreshing, and the effects are especially powerful. Although I tend to smell a bit bad every time I drink it, my complexion has noticeably improved over the time I've been taking it, and my skin has become smoother...

All those sisters and friends outside her house asked her if she was moisturized by men? Pah! Draining her was more like... Zhao Jiawang was powerful now, and he was annoying her. She could only send him away.

Now that she already has a little lion at home, she doesn't want to have another little unicorn or something...

But what annoyed her even more was that her mother constantly told her not to tell anyone else about it. Her sister-in-law, Wang Xiaomei, would occasionally mention it to her. Did she really think she was stupid? With such a good thing, she wouldn't even be happy if her own man asked her for a couple of drinks, let alone tell anyone else...

She hasn't even gotten enough nourishment, what can others expect?

Sigh. Actually, it would be good for Zhao Jiawang to go along. He could help carry some extra stuff over, and then bring back a couple more jars of wine. He wouldn't be left alone in Hai City, unloved by his parents and often being asked for money... The more Cheng Zhenyu thought about it, the better it would be for the whole family to go.

Zhao Fangrui glanced at her eldest daughter and nodded. She knew it would end like this, so she had already told her second daughter that her eldest sister and her family might all go.

Didn't the eldest daughter understand Sanni as well as she did? Sanni had been thinking about going for a month or so, and the eldest daughter had tried her best to suppress her, even using her pocket money to keep her at bay. Now that it was vacation time, Sanni didn't need to ask her mother for pocket money, so naturally she was going to make a scene...

"Mom, these are all goodies I prepared for my eldest sister and the others. I'll put them here for you first. With all the kids at my eldest sister's place, they're sure to have finished all the malted milk and other goodies.

And that chocolate, I finally managed to get some this time, I left a few pieces for the little lions and gave the rest to my eldest sister and the others. And this, this was given by Jiawang’s workplace…”

Cheng Zhenyu, having figured things out, pointed at the big bag, took a piece of cake from the table, and glanced at the empty living room. "Mom, what is Xiaomei planning to bring for her older sister?"

Well, this is another round of comparison. But there is nothing wrong with this kind of comparison... Zhao Fangrui opened the large wardrobe for her eldest daughter and pointed to the room.

"I just got a few bags of milk powder, had someone send a few boxes of cookies from abroad, and prepared books, notebooks, pens, and some toys for Yitiao and the others... Oh, Zhenbao and Xiaomei just took the two kids out again, and they said they wanted to buy some more things for Yitiao and the others..."

After hearing this, Cheng Zhenyu was instantly speechless. She stopped eating the pancake, grabbed her bag and walked out. "Mom, I have to go to work first! These are actually just a part of it. I'll ask Jiawang to bring some things over in the evening, and then I'll take them to my eldest sister and her kids..."

Zhao Fangrui watched her daughter run away and couldn't help but shake her head. Her daughter really loved to compare everything! Especially now that she had cub Lion, she wanted to compare everything to what she had with cub Tiger back then.

Anyway, whatever the tiger cub had, the lion cub had to be given. Luckily, the lion cub wasn't too influenced by his mother. He'd eat whatever was good, and even grab some leftovers, and even when he had nothing, he'd be quite cheerful just drinking water. He hadn't shown the same fussiness he'd shown in the first few months...

**********

While Haishi was preparing, let's go back to Sanshi Island. After the family took a nap, Cheng Zhenzhu was too lazy to make any porridge or noodles. She directly took out the pre-steamed brown sugar buns from the space and steamed twelve in one pot.

They each got a large steamed bun and a cup of malted milk, and the rest was shared. Jiutiao also got half a brown sugar steamed bun in his bowl, and a full can of malted milk in his milk bottle.

"Great, great~" Jiu Tiao saw that it was not porridge this morning, but the same meal as his mother and brothers, so he immediately buried his head in eating without even raising his head... Sure enough, his brothers did not lie to him, there was really delicious food!

"Mom, we're going to collect firewood later." Yi Tiao finished his steamed bun and reported his itinerary to his mother. Their plan for the day was to collect firewood in the morning and do homework in the afternoon.

"We have some really hardworking kids. With you around, mom never lacks firewood..." Cheng Zhenzhu gave the energetic kids an appreciative look.

They have their own plans, and they're still thinking about contributing to the family, so as a mother, she naturally won't hold them back. It's cold, so it's good to let a few people go out and exercise...

"Hehe~" The few guys immediately grinned when they saw their mother praising them.

Jiu Tiao, who was eating happily, saw his brothers laughing, raised his confused little head, and laughed a few times.

After having fun, he learned that his brothers were going to the mountain and he could go with them, so he immediately got up from the table with the steamed bun in his hand and looked outside.

"Yitiao, be careful when you go up the mountain. We have a lot of firewood at home, just pick up some..." Before leaving, Cheng Zhenzhu told the others not to go up the mountain. Especially Jiutiao, don't run around, don't touch anything...

"Yeah, be good!" Jiu Tiao happily ran to find his little basket while holding the steamed buns. He was so good.
