The third brother stayed in the room with his eldest brother, not daring to leave alone.
The other brothers, while rushing backward, looked back in confusion at the third brother...
The third brother pointed to himself, his face also full of doubt, and whispered in his defense, "It wasn't me!"
When the brothers arrived at the courtyard, they saw Wen Shishi crying with tears streaming down her face, facing a bowl containing a sea cucumber.
The second son squatted down and quickly asked her what was wrong.
The fourth brother stood to the side, a smile on his face.
Wen Shishi looked up at her brothers...
She cried even harder!
The brothers looked at the fourth brother, who hurriedly waved his hands, "It wasn't me! I didn't do it!"
The seventh, eighth, and tenth brothers all squatted down and gently comforted Wen Shi.
Seeing that Wen Shishi was still sobbing and not speaking, Lao Jiu deliberately said, "Since that's the case, then I'll..."
I had no choice but to ask my older brother to find out what was wrong with Shishi...
Upon hearing this, Wen Shishi immediately lowered her arm and waved her hand, "No! Don't disturb Big Brother!"
The older brothers smiled and glanced at the ninth brother.
Wen Shishi stopped sobbing. The tenth brother had originally wanted the fourth brother to explain the reason...
The fourth brother, worried that Wen Shishi would be upset, said, "Actually, it's nothing. It was just for Shishi to eat anyway..."
Hearing this, the brothers roughly guessed that Wen Shishi was upset because of the food.
So, the tenth brother spoke up, "Fourth brother, did you hide the food that was meant for the eldest brother and not give it to Shishi?"
The fourth brother, speechless, pointed to himself with an incredulous expression...
I never expected my younger brother to misunderstand me like this...
Before he could explain, the tenth brother said again, "It shouldn't be that bad! Fourth brother usually dotes on Shishi!"
The fourth brother then stopped, feeling no resentment whatsoever.
"Shishi, what happened? Tell me, if you don't have enough to eat, your Eighth Brother will go catch some for you right now!"
Wen Shishi finally calmed down and said to the brothers in front of her:
Fourth Brother made five dumplings with mackerel filling...
We had originally agreed that I would eat two, leave two for my eldest brother, and give one to the other brothers...
I just…
The brothers exchanged glances, seemingly understanding something, and suppressed their laughter.
Wen Shishi looked at them carefully, making sure they weren't laughing at her, before continuing:
"I'm holding one in each hand, but..."
The dumplings were so delicious! I finished one, and my hand was empty...
I forgot! Thinking I'd missed one, my hand wouldn't obey me and I grabbed another one...
I ate dumplings one after another, and kept eating and eating...
Until the bowl was completely empty!
Dumplings, all gone!
The eldest brother hasn't eaten yet! The other brothers haven't eaten yet!
Waaaaah, I didn't mean to! I don't know why!
Lao Ba couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The ninth brother's voice was also quite loud, and the tenth brother showed eight teeth.
The other brothers smiled gently and remained silent.
Wen Shishi peeked through her fingers and saw her brothers laughing hysterically, and she couldn't help but cry again.
The third brother was originally standing in front of the door, listening to the commotion so he could keep an eye on his eldest brother...
I heard a group of brothers laughing out loud when Shishi cried!
Enraged, he rushed over and punched the arms of the loudest two brothers, the eighth and ninth, twice each.
"Shishi! Third Brother will help you fight them!"
"You still dare to laugh!"
After finishing the beating, Song Chengxin quickly ran back, worried that his older brother might suddenly regain consciousness.
This unexpected turn of events eased the brothers' heavy hearts somewhat.
The second son, Song Chengjian, was still squatting in front of Wen Shishi.
He pulled Wen Shishi's hand down and comforted her gently, "It's okay! Shishi, don't cry. I already told you..."
Mackerel and sea cucumber are for my older brother and Shishi.
Shishi is growing and needs extra nutrition, so this is perfect for her!
"It's alright, big brother can eat sea cucumber."
Wen Shishi opened her eyes, her curled eyelashes still glistening with tears, a sight that broke one's heart.
Hearing her second brother's words, the tears she had just stopped falling again.
Sea cucumber...
I accidentally ate the sea cucumber too!
The fourth brother smiled and said, "Well, I heard Shishi say that sea cucumber porridge is nutritious, so I steamed the sea cucumber..."
I was about to add it to the porridge when I noticed there were three strands...
So I asked Shishi if she preferred to eat the whole thing, or drink it like her older brother, with porridge...
Shishi said she likes to eat it whole, so she grabbed one and, to everyone's surprise, devoured it in no time!
After finishing the second one, I suddenly started crying!
After the fourth brother finished speaking, he couldn't help but chuckle.
The brothers all suppressed their laughter.
The second son smiled gently, pointed to the remaining sea cucumber in the bowl, and asked Shishi, "Shishi, would you like some more?"
Wen Shishi quickly shook her head and waved her hands, "I won't eat, I won't eat!"
This is for my eldest brother!
The second brother smiled and said, "Since it's your first time eating this, you can add a little less, one piece is enough..."
Shishi is wonderful! She knows how to care for her older brother and wants to save some for him...
The eighth brother chimed in, "That's right! Shishi, don't be sad. Tomorrow, your brothers will be extra careful, and you and your eldest brother can eat more..."
Don't be sad...
Wen Shishi suddenly rushed over and hugged Lao Ba's leg, her voice sincere, "Eighth Brother, I promise I'll listen to you from now on..."
