Lin Ranran replied perfunctorily, "Mmm, I'm praising you, praising you for being good."

Xiu Kaijie: "..."

Forget it, he's a grown man, so he won't argue with a three-year-old.

After walking a short distance, Xiu Kaijie started to fuss again, jumping up and poking Chu Chu's chubby little face, complaining, "Mommy, why do I have to walk while Chu Chu can be carried by you?"

Lin Ranran answered matter-of-factly: "Because Chuchu is only three years old, she's still a little baby and needs everyone's care."

Hsiu Kai-chieh argued, "I'm only seven years old too! I'm a little baby who needs to be cared for!"

"Pfft!" Lin Ranran couldn't help but laugh. She tugged at Chuchu's hand and hummed a little tune, saying, "You have the nerve to say you're only seven years old? I remember someone said he was seven years old and a grown man. What was that person's name again? Let me think... his surname was... Xiu!"

"Aaaaaah!" Xiu Kaijie roared, "Hurry up and move along! How are we supposed to treat everyone to dinner if we're moving so slowly? We'll be licking the plates clean! Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up!"

Xiu Kaijie ran while shouting, his little head bobbing back and forth, his unkempt hair swaying wildly in the wind.

When they arrived at Si Yiming's residence, Si Si and Si Jingxuan were arguing at the door.

Sisi: "I peeled the most peanuts, so the credit should go to me."

Si Jingxuan: "Tch, who was it that peeled one and ran away, and still has the nerve to claim credit for it?"

Sisi: "Tch, who can't even peel peanuts? How dare they take credit? Shame on you."

Si Jingxuan retorted, "And who was it that peeled and ate at the same time? Someone else's peeled pieces are already in someone else's stomach, okay? Humph~"

Onlookers: "..."

So, they started arguing over a small basket of shelled peanuts?

The world of children is indeed strange and wonderful.

The story begins before the peanut shelling. In order to cultivate the two siblings' hands-on skills and let them do some chores, Simin gave them a basket of peanuts and said that whoever shelled the most peanuts would win, and the winner could make a request.

"Whoever shells the most peanuts, Dad will grant you one request. Good luck!"

Unfortunately, the two siblings forgot to separate them at first and put all the shelled peanuts into one basket. Now, one of them would eat a few, and the other would walk away and come back, leaving "evidence" that no one knew who shelled the most.

Sisi jumped up and down anxiously, emphasizing, "I just counted, I peeled 53 in total, and there are only 106 in this basket, so I won, and Dad should keep his promise to me."

"Give it to me, give it to me!" Si Jingxuan said angrily. "You were only concerned with counting how many you peeled, but did you even remember how many you ate? You peeled them all and ate them all, so why should I count mine as yours?"

The peanuts in the basket were actually Sisi's "leftovers" plus Si Jingxuan's.

Sisi wasn't stumped by Si Jingxuan. She quickly came up with a brilliant idea and retorted with a "humph," "Even if I ate them, I still peeled fifty-three, so you still peeled very few."

"Pfft," Lin Ranran patted Chu Chu's rabbit ears on her head and laughed, "These two are really funny. Everyone has their own ideas, and the key is that what they say actually makes sense."
