The next morning, Yuan got up early, which was rare for him.

I also went to the big house to check on Xingzi.

Xingzi had woken up but didn't get up. She looked at the roof beams sadly. Niu Wa was lying next to her, sleeping soundly with his head next to hers.

Grandma has already woken up, and grandpa should have gone to sleep in the inner room of the main house.

Yuan looked at Xingzi worriedly:

"Are you okay?"

Xingzi answered irrelevantly and sobbed sadly:

"My eggs..."

The three-year-old kid stared at the beams without a gleam in his eyes, and looked gray all over.

Yuan followed her gaze and looked upwards: ...Hmm...there is dust...there are spider webs...

Yuan understood her very well. She would also be very sad if she vomited out everything she had eaten.

So Yuan patted her on the head and patted his chest in a righteous manner:

"Don't be sad! Daddy wants to take me out to find some fox and dog who say there are fried eggs to eat. If I eat them, I will secretly bring some back for you!"

A Yuan didn't understand what Li was talking about. She just thought that her father was going to take her to rob a dog that looked like a fox.

Although he felt sorry for the dog, thinking about the scrambled eggs, Yuan decided to go with his daddy! Grab it!

The decision was made in an instant, so Yuan didn't tell his parents, which led to a not-so-pleasant misunderstanding.

Xingzi finally perked up a bit after hearing that, and was happy for a moment, but she immediately became worried again, and she turned over and lay on the kang to look at her:

"What?

dog?!

But...can uncle beat a dog?

My dad said that my uncle usually doesn’t move. His health is very poor. He would rather lie down than sit, and would rather sit than stand. Even if he sits, he has to close his eyes and sleep all day long.

Yuan thought about it and it seemed to be the case!

So he shook his head uncertainly:

"have no idea."

Xingzi became even more worried, and took Yuan's hand and said:

"Why don't you just not go and let your uncle go!"

Yuan was touched but helpless and shook her hand back:

“Don’t worry, if the dog bites me, I’ll run away!

Alas, my Lord is greedy, I have to keep an eye on him."

As he spoke, he sighed worriedly, like a naughty child who worries too much about adults, and he did his best to put the blame on others.

Xingzi held her tightly:

"Be careful, and remember to take the eggs with you!"

The two three-year-old kids once again showed their sisterly love for a bite of scrambled eggs.

The old man in the inner room who was awakened by the noise and overheard the noise couldn't help but get off the kang, put his hands behind his back and went out to find his eldest son who was still half asleep. He sucked his teeth and asked worriedly:

"Your grandmother!

I heard you were going to grab some dog food? And you brought your daughter with you?

You can go by yourself. Why are you taking my granddaughter with you? Aren’t you afraid that the dog will bite her?

Look at you, how can you be so greedy when you are a grown-up?

"Which dog did you hear of that had scrambled eggs? The one in the neighboring village, Mr. Liu's?"

Fu Dabai: ...What dog food? Where did the dog come from?! A person was lying on the kang, and a dog came from the sky? Am I greedy? Is it me?

Fu Dabai doubted himself deeply for a moment, and finally came to his senses with certainty:

It's not me! It's obviously that naughty kid who's greedy! And... where did the dog come from? ! !

…

Ah Yuan hugged Fu Dabai's neck obediently and said confidently:

"Foxhound!"

I was so angry that I wanted to throw her away:

"Naughty kid! Did you understand? They are fox friends! What fox and dog! There is such a thing!"

A Yuan scratched his head in confusion, his expression looking extremely innocent.

Fu Dabai recalled the look that Lao Futou gave him after he tried hard to explain.

Old Man Fu looked at him with lifeless eyes and said:

"You dare not take the responsibility for what you did! Do you really have to make me look at you with disappointment like this?"

Unconvinced, Fu Dabai suddenly fell silent:

Sorry, I really can't see any emotion in the dead fish eyes! Thanks to us all for following our mothers! The big eyes are bright and shining!

Fu Dabai didn't understand the look in his father's eyes, but Lao Futou understood his silence, so Fu Dabai got kicked early in the morning!

He was kicked from the kang to the ground, and after a few kicks, he jumped up like he was flying!

There are still several big footprints on Fu Dabai's body.

Ah Yuan timidly pressed his little cheek against Fu Dabai's angry face and said softly:

"I was wrong."

Although I still didn't understand, Yuan carefully swallowed the second half of the sentence.

She had a feeling that it was not appropriate to say this at this time.

What can Fu Dabai do? He can only reluctantly forgive her! Then he takes her to eat with his bad friends!

The father and daughter have a deep affection here, and the second house is no less affectionate.

Fu Erbai held his daughter in his arms and looked at her with love, and Xiao Yangshi could not intervene. She said with some jealousy:

"You've been hugging me all morning, why don't you give me a hug too."

Fu Erbai pinched his daughter's tender face reluctantly, then handed it to Xiao Yang, lowering his voice and saying:

"I used to think that Yuan from the eldest brother's family was very cute, and Xingzi from the fourth brother's family was not bad either, but they were both too thin and looked unlucky.

Now that I have Bao'er, I know what true cuteness is. Look at our Bao'er, so fair and tender, with watery eyes, and she looks so blessed at first glance. She will definitely be a beautiful girl when she grows up!

Otherwise…” Fu Erbai paused.

Little Yang looked at him puzzledly:

"What?"

Fu Erbai slapped his thigh:

"How about your full name be Fu Bao'er, this name is good enough, there's no need to give it another one. Your nickname should be Fu Bao, which means blessing. It sounds like blessing."

Little Yang forced a smile:

"That's right. All the girls in my family are named Fu Yuanzi, Fu Rabbit, and Fu Xingzi. Those names don't sound good, and they all refer to food. It's good for our daughter to be named Baoer."

Fu Erbai laughed and called his daughter:

"Little treasure, little Fubao."

Fubao in little Yang's arms seemed to understand and babbled happily to Fu Erbai.

When Mrs. Yang saw how well-behaved her daughter was, she felt even more uncomfortable.

Although old Mrs. Yang left behind Fubao.

But she told them clearly yesterday that no matter what, Fubao was not the child of the old Fu family, and she certainly could not treat him like other children.

Half of Fubao's food, clothing, and medical expenses in the future will be paid by the public, and the remaining half will have to be paid by the second wife herself.

From now on, the prince will not give her the same dowry. If other girls get two taels, Fubao will only have one tael. If the couple cannot accept it, they will have to send Fubao away immediately.

Little Yang and Fu Erbai had no choice but to agree. Fu Erbai originally wanted Old Yang to name their daughter.

But I heard that Xiao Yang was cunning and secretly adopted Fubao without his mother's consent, and was finally dragged back to Lao Fu's house by her stepmother, who stood in the yard and made a weird comment.

Now I dare not even mention the issue of naming.

Xiao Yang had a knot in her heart. In her heart, she had raised Fubao, and Fubao was her biological daughter and the granddaughter of the old Fu family.

She was scheming and wanted to spread the story so that when the time comes, her mother-in-law would not bother the village chief again out of shame, but what does this have to do with Fubao?

Since Fubao has entered the Fu family, he should be treated the same as A Yuan and the others.

No! That's not right, Xiao Yang quickly denied it in her heart. She couldn't be like A Yuan and the others, eating only one meal a day in winter and starving all day.

I am never full during my two meals a day, and I don’t have any oily food for ten days or half a month.

Little Yang was worried about how her lucky baby could bear it.

Just as she was worrying, she felt something small and soft touching her. When little Yang came back to her senses, she saw Fubao waving his little hands, patting her as if to comfort her.

Xiao Yang's already softened heart immediately melted into a puddle of water.

The idea became firm: she must let Fubao live a good life! At least he should have enough food and warm clothes!

Young Madam Yang told Fu Erbai about her worries and said:

"We as parents are incompetent, Dalang and the others are boys so they have to suffer, but Fubao is a delicate little girl.

Look at Fubao's appearance, how can he endure that kind of hardship?

Now I have to give most of the money I earn to my mother. I don’t even have money to buy cloth even if I want to make two sets of clothes for Fubao.

How about...how about we also secretly hide some private money from now on?

Many women in the village will hide some food secretly. My elder sister-in-law and younger sisters-in-law must have some too. They also have other food for their children in private, most of which are bought with their own money. It’s not too much if we hide some of it.

We must ensure that Fubao has enough food and warm clothes!"

Fu Erbai frowned and thought deeply for a while. He felt uncomfortable listening to these words. But when he looked at Fu Bao's fair and tender face, he felt that what Xiao Yang said was right. He nodded and said with some difficulty:

"I will go find a job tomorrow and not work with my brothers. I will secretly keep some of the wages..."

Fu Erbai had never done such a thing before, and he felt awkward every time he thought about it. But when he looked at Fubao babbling at him, the awkwardness was mostly dissipated.

But I still made up my mind secretly:

He couldn't keep hiding his wages like this, so he worked hard to earn more, so that even if he hid a little, it wouldn't affect his family's life.

Fubao kept babbling about eating well and dressing warmly, but no one could understand what she said.

No one knows that when this little child is still young, her subconscious mind is constantly reminding her what is best for her...

Dalang and his friends silently watched as their parents circled around this sister whom they had only known for a few days, talking all the time about how great she was and what they were going to do for her. The more they listened, the more numb they became.

When Xiao Yang and Fu Erbai were busy, Dalang still took his sister over. The brothers took her with them in silence, not knowing what to think.

Fubao was not frightened by the cold faces at all. He still smiled innocently and cutely, and relied on them softly.
