Juanjuan wiggled her short legs and ran out of the house.
"Mother!"
Jiang Dai put down the basket on her back and stood in the sunlight, holding a sweet potato in her hand so that her little girl, who had run out, could see that this time, she had really found a sweet potato.
"Come here! Juanjuan, let Mommy hug you!"
Jiang Dai opened her arms to the little guy and hugged him tightly, even though he was still a little hesitant.
He then began to sigh inwardly:
[My little girl is definitely the best! She's so well-behaved!]
I don't know how the original family could resist being nicer to Juanjuan!
[Such a well-behaved child! How could he be so pitiful! His father doesn't love him, and his mother doesn't care for him!]
Jiang Dai had no memories of the original owner, but after going out to dig sweet potatoes twice, she had already gained a general understanding of the Bai family's situation from the gossip of her neighbors in the village.
She really hadn't expected that the original owner's family was so extraordinary.
Jiang Dai held Juanjuan in her arms, gently patting the child's back, lowering her voice, and trying to make her voice and tone more gentle and soothing.
"Mother is back."
"From now on, Mommy will take good care of Juanjuan, and no one will be able to bully Juanjuan anymore!"
"If anyone bullies Juanjuan, Mommy will beat them up! Not your dad or your brothers either!"
Juanjuan nestled on her mother's shoulder, her slightly tense body gradually relaxing.
But for some reason, Juanjuan just couldn't stop herself from crying.
Even when the child cries, it is quiet.
Tears welled up and slid down her cheeks, falling to the ground and splashing up tiny specks of dust, eventually wetting a small patch of yellow mud.
Juanjuan quietly raised her hand and wiped away her tears.
The little hand couldn't help but grip the hem of her mother's clothes tightly.
She loves her current mother so much, she can be close to her, act spoiled, and hug her freely.
Juanjuan never complained about her family's poverty or her parents' lack of ambition; her only wish was for her parents to like her.
but……
Juanjuan thought of her original parents.
Juanjuan didn't know where they went.
In the quiet of the night, Juanjuan also felt sad. She never thought that because her parents were bad, she wanted to change them.
But now, this kind of mother is really hard for Juanjuan to resist.
"Jiang Dai, you're back!"
Just as the mother and daughter were enjoying a warm moment together, a bright and cheerful voice rang out.
Bai Tian stepped through the gate with a bright smile on his face.
Then he saw his wife, who gave him a look of disgust.
Bai Tian: Huh?
He went out to pick a sweet potato, why is he looking at him like that when he comes back?
Could it be that they couldn't find any sweet potatoes?
Bai Tian decided to comfort his wife.
"It's alright, it's just that we didn't find any sweet potatoes! We'll take our time..."
"You haven't found it yet!"
"We dug up five more!"
Jiang Dai gave him another disdainful look, then turned and left with Juanjuan in her arms.
Bai Tian:?
She looked down and asked her silent third son, "What's wrong with your mother?"
"When Mom was digging sweet potatoes today, she chatted with the aunties and grandmas around here."
Bai Tian: ? "So what?"
Bai Yun'an: "So, Mother thinks that none of the men in our family are human beings."
Bai Tian:! !
Bai Yun'an didn't forget to add insult to injury: "Especially you, Father, Mother scolded you all the way."
Bai Tian:......
Heavens above! Earth below!
This was all done by the original owner!
...
During lunchtime.
As usual, Jiang Dai started counting heads, and then she realized that one person was missing.
"Where's Dog Egg?!"
"Where did Gou Dan go!"
Jiang Dai put her hands on her hips and asked the family members.
She still finds it hard to adapt to this ancient way of raising children.
They're terrified that if they're not careful, their child will run away or secretly do something reckless outside.
after all……
Last time Juanjuan went out, she got into a fight with Huani'er, and Lao San almost got beaten to death.
Yesterday, Dog Egg ran out by himself and couldn't be found. He fell into the cesspool.
[That's why kids have an incredible knack for getting themselves into trouble!]
Juanjuan originally wanted to speak up for her older brother.
But just as she was about to speak, her father stopped her.
Bai Tian shook his head at his bewildered little girl, signaling her to be quiet.
At this moment, who would dare provoke a woman in a rage! Anyone who dares to speak is doomed!
Juanjuan: ...Is it that scary?
So, half-heartedly, the little guy chose to join his father and brother's silent organization.
