Seeing the helpless Xiao Wu and Sun, Bao Gen said disdainfully, "You rich people are so pretentious! What does it matter if a man's clothes get a little wet?"

Xiao Wu said with a mournful face, "I'm fine, but if the masters in the manor find out that I took the young master to play in the river, they'll definitely beat me to death!"

Tang Qiqi giggled: "What's the rush? The sun is shining brightly now. We can just dry the clothes before going back."

She told Sun Haotian to take off his outer clothes and put them on the grass to dry, and Baogen took off his outer shirt and wrapped it around Sun Haotian. As for Xiao Wu, in his own words, he was thick-skinned and it wouldn't matter if he took off his outer shirt.

Now that they had to wait for Sun Haotian's clothes to dry, they couldn't leave for a while. Tang Qiqi came up with a good idea: to grill and eat the fish right there.

Ziqiang said indulgently, "Little glutton, firewood is easy to find here, but how are we going to start a fire without a flint?"

"I have a plan, you just need to go and gather firewood!" Tang Qiqi said, patting her bundle.

They were already used to Tang Qiqi's superpowers. Tang Qiqi was very careful, and everything she brought out could be explained in a plausible way.

Before long, they had gathered a large bundle of firewood.

Baogen skillfully set up the firewood rack, looking at Tang Qiqi with some disbelief, and said, "Qiqi, it's up to you to start the fire!"

Tang Qiqi said mysteriously, "You all go and prepare the fish, and I'll make sure the fire is blazing!"

Everyone knew that Tang Qiqi was a woman of her word, so they all went to watch Baogen kill the fish, and Xiao Wu tactfully went to help out.

Now, only Tang Qiqi and Sun Haotian, who is wearing Baogen's long robe, are on the lawn.

Sun Haotian was only four years old, so Tang Qiqi wasn't worried that he would discover anything.

She quickly took out a lighter and lit the dry leaves at the bottom of the firewood rack. Then she added some small twigs on top, and soon the twigs were lit, and the firewood rack was ignited!

Sun Haotian was completely stunned. This Tang Qiqi was so unexpected. It seemed like she was fearless and capable of doing anything.

"How did you start the fire?" Sun Haotian asked in a very childish way, which was in line with his age.

"Use a flint and steel, even kids from the countryside know how to do that!" Tang Qiqi said with genuine pride.

"So what do you do in the village?" Sun Haotian asked the adult curiously!

Tang Qiqi thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to the chicken farm to collect eggs, climb trees to raid bird nests, and ride Snow White all over the village..."

Sun Haotian frowned and racked his brains, seemingly unable to recall the things Tang Qiqi had mentioned.

"So what do you usually do?" Tang Qiqi felt it would be impolite not to reciprocate, so she started chatting with Sun Haotian.

"I get up in the morning and first go to pay my respects to my grandmother, then to my father and mother, and then I spend the rest of the time playing alone in the yard," Sun Haotian said slowly.

"Then who will play with you?" Tang Qiqi looked at Sun Haotian's worried face and wanted to learn more about this rich second-generation, who might be a third-generation rich.

Sun Haotian sighed and said, "Usually Da Wu and Xiao Wu are the ones who follow me around, but they don't play with me. Grandmother says there's a difference between master and servant, and they just follow me around!"

Tang Qiqi was amused by him and said with a smile, "Why do you look like a worried old man at such a young age? Don't you have any brothers or sisters?"

Sun Haotian said sadly, "I'm an only child in my family. My grandmother always says that my family has only had one son for three generations, and that I'm her precious darling. But she never lets me do what I like to do. I envy you so much, having so many older brothers and sisters!"

Tang Qiqi carefully examined Sun Haotian and thought he was quite intelligent and could explain things clearly.

She now understands why Sun Haohaotian is so domineering and unreasonable; it's all due to family factors.

Presumably, in the Sun family, everyone protected and pampered him, treating him like a precious gem.

Without proper guidance and suitable playmates, he always acts unreasonably, probably just trying to get attention!

Tang Qiqi couldn't help but sigh, realizing that even children from wealthy families could lead miserable lives.

She stretched out her little hand to Sun Haotian, smiling broadly, and said, "Then I'll be your friend from now on, and I'll play with you!"

Chen Haotian could hardly believe his eyes. Tang Qiqi, who had always said she hated him, was actually asking to be friends with him. He was so afraid that Tang Qiqi would change her mind, so he quickly grabbed her hand and said, "It's a deal then!"

Tang Qiqi nodded and said, "It's a deal!"

"Haha, I have friends again! I have friends now!" Sun Haotian jumped up happily, and the long robe he was wearing fell off!

Baogen and Xiaowu each carried a string of fish hanging on a straw rope. Seeing the fire burning brightly, Baogen praised, "Qiqi is really amazing!"

Several boys put the fish on sticks and grilled them. Before long, a fragrant aroma wafted out.

Zhao Ziqiang took a deep sniff and said, "It smells so good! If you could sprinkle some salt on it, it would be absolutely delicious!"

"Here, salt and chili!" Tang Qiqi handed over two packets of seasoning wrapped in oil paper.

She had put the oil paper in her bundle beforehand; the original plastic packaging looked too conspicuous now, and she didn't want to waste her breath explaining.

Ziqiang looked at Tang Qiqi with a puzzled expression and asked, "Why do you bring seasonings to school?"

Jiedi, looking like she knew everything, said, "Our Qiqi is a complete glutton. I think she's been planning this for a long time, isn't she, Qiqi!"

Tang Qiqi immediately seized the opportunity and said, feigning embarrassment, "Third Sister, you can keep it to yourself, why say it out loud? It's so embarrassing!"

Zhao Ziqiang, still clueless, asked, "But Qiqi, how did you know the teacher would let us leave school early today?"

Tang Qiqi sighed, finding it troublesome to encounter such stubborn people. She rolled her eyes at Zhao Ziqiang and said, "I've been thinking about going on a picnic every day, and I've always prepared the seasonings. Why do you have to force me to say it?"

Everyone was amused by Tang Qiqi's shy appearance. Baogen wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Don't just keep making fun of Qiqi. You'll all have to thank her for preparing so well later. The fish is almost cooked, so hurry up and add salt and chili!"

Everyone busied themselves sprinkling salt and adding chili peppers. Si Di, along with Nian Di and Pan Di, picked a lot of large tree leaves and washed them clean in the river. The grilled fish were neatly arranged on the leaves, and the crispy on the outside and tender on the inside fish sizzled with oil on the lush green leaves. The fresh and fragrant aroma wafted far and wide, making everyone's mouths water.

Jie Di gave two larger fish to Sun Haotian and Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu was so moved that he almost cried. Ever since he could remember, he and Da Wu had always waited for others to finish eating and picked up the leftovers. This was the first time in his life that he had received food first.

Tang Qiqi said in a serious tone, "Brothers and sisters, let's eat!"

Everyone laughed and joked as they started eating the fish. Sun Haotian thought it was the best fish he had ever eaten in his life!
