After the Bai family finished dinner, Bai Nuo, who had just finished cleaning up the dishes with Aunt Liu, came out of the kitchen and saw this scene: Bai Yu and Jiang Qiao'er were sitting under the eaves. Bai Yu was weaving a grasshopper in his hand and then handed it to Jiang Qiao'er.

Jiang Qiao'er was stunned, not knowing how to take it. Bai Yu asked somewhat sadly, "Don't you like it? Then I'll make you a little bird. I'm good at making these, and my sister likes them too!"

Bai Nuo listened in stunned silence. This kid, he's actually learned to lie. When did she start liking grasshoppers and birds? And when did Bai Yu ever get these for her?

She'd never even seen a bird, let alone a bird's feather! And she'd never even seen a blade of grass, let alone a grasshopper! Bai Yu gave it to her, okay?

However, seeing Bai Yu trying his best to coax Jiang Qiao'er and trying every means to talk to her, even during the meal, Jiang Qiao'er didn't give Bai Yu any response at all, but Bai Yu kept putting food on Jiang Qiao'er's plate, as if afraid that Jiang Qiao'er would go hungry and that she didn't need to take care of her anymore, Bai Nuo decided to forgive the boy for the time being.

If Jiang Qiao'er can speak normally and react more, it would be great if she could go back to how she was before.

"Do you really want the little bird?" Seeing that Jiang Qiao'er didn't speak but didn't object either, Bai Yu immediately stood up. "Then I'll catch one for you right now. I know where to find little birds, just hatched, they're very cute!"

Bai Nuo listened from the side and made another note of Bai Yu's name. This kid, does he have nothing to do all day? Does he spend all his time raiding bird nests? Otherwise, how would he know where there are bird nests to raid?

The newly hatched birds are so cute.

They know it very clearly and in great detail.

Bai Yu stood up and pulled Jiang Qiao'er up with him. He reached for the ladder, but Jiang Qiao'er, seeing that Bai Yu was serious, grabbed him, shook her head, and pointed to the grasshopper in Bai Yu's hand, "I want this, not the little bird!"

"Alright!" Bai Yu handed the grasshopper to Jiang Qiao'er and said sweetly, "Tell me what you like, and I'll give it to you. If I can't afford it, I'll have my sister give it to you!"

Jiang Qiao'er kept her eyes fixed on the grasshopper and nodded.

Bai Yu made conversation, "Do you want to go fishing? If this is your first time here, you don't know, but I have a fishpond at home, it's a lot of fun. I go down there often. We can also go to the river to enjoy the breeze!"

Just as Bai Yu was about to take Jiang Qiao'er into the river, although Jiang Qiao'er was a year older than Bai Yu, in this state, Jiang Qiao'er was no match for Bai Yu. Bai Yu was stunned and couldn't react at all.

Bai Nuo quickly called out to Bai Yu.

"Bai Yu, it's so late. Why are you going to the fishpond? Do you want Qiao'er to fall in too?" Bai Nuo walked out from the side.

Bai Yu was startled and stammered, "When did you get here?"

"I've been here for a while!" Bai Nuo said calmly, meaning to Bai Yu, "I heard everything you said!"

Bai Yu felt embarrassed for a moment, but quickly replied without batting an eye, "I can swim, and Uncle Long is also by the fishpond. Uncle Long won't let anything happen to me."

He will definitely protect Qiao'er.

"Go take a shower and go to bed. Have you finished your homework?" Bai Nuo patted Bai Yu. This kid is always restless if he's not disciplined. He actually did so many things behind her back.

"Qiao'er, I'm going to help your sister get some goods tomorrow. Why don't you come with me?" Bai Nuo said to Jiang Qiao'er. Originally, it would have been fine for her and Lu Ying or the Long brothers to go, but she wanted to bring Jiang Qiao'er along so that she would have something to do and not be alone, thinking about this and that and getting stuck in a rut.

Jiang Qiao'er stared blankly at her. Bai Nuo understood what Jiang Qiao'er meant and said to her, "Your sister also means the same thing. Now that your sister is sick, there is no way to handle things in the cloth shop. Only you can handle them. Your sister hopes that you can take good care of the cloth shop or take good care of your sister."

Jiang Qiao'er remained silent, her eyes not even blinking. It was unclear whether she understood or not. Bai Nuo felt a little deflated. How could such a healthy child be so frightened?

This change is too drastic!

Undeterred, she asked, "Did you understand? Would you like to come with me tomorrow?"

Jiang Qiao'er finally nodded.

Bai Nuo breathed a sigh of relief. Well, as long as he can still react and understand what others mean, it's not too bad.

"Alright, I'll prepare some bathwater for you. After you're done, go to bed early!" Bai Nuo didn't know how to comfort a little girl who had suffered emotional trauma, so he patted Jiang Qiao'er's shoulder, signaling her to come with him.

He wanted nothing more than to tear Zhang Jiyue to pieces. Not only did she cause Jiang San Niang to miscarry, but she also terrified Jiang Qiao'er to this extent.

After settling Jiang Qiao'er in, Bai Nuo went to see Jiang San Niang as usual, and then returned to the main room to call over Lu Yinglong and Aunt Liu.

Help her string the pearls.

"Ugh, finally something to do! I'm so bored!" Long Yi sighed, looking at the pile of things on the table. He had been wandering around the fishpond all night, and he felt like he was going to rot.

However, due to Bai Nuo's instructions, Long Yi had no choice but to patrol diligently.

The pile of things Bai Nuo placed on the table was real gold. When he took it out, the brilliance almost blinded Grandma and Aunt Liu—they were astonished.
