"Old man, I found a nest of bird eggs. I can have an extra dish for lunch!" The teenager walked over carefully with a few bird eggs in the hem of his clothes, his expression excited.
The old man who was weaving bamboo baskets in the corridor picked up a bamboo stick and hit him. "You little bastard, climbing a tree again! What if you fall from such a high place? If you break your arms and legs, I won't take care of you."
The bamboo sticks in his hands made a loud noise, but in fact, it didn't hurt at all. The boy still smiled and said, "Don't worry, my hands and feet are very flexible!"
The old man glared at him unhappily and sat back down.
When Xue Huan came over, what she saw was this scene of grandparents and grandchildren enjoying each other's happiness.
This old man is Old Man Tang, and the young boy was adopted by him. If you didn’t know, you would think they were a real grandfather and grandson.
In addition to the young man, Father Tang also adopted seven children.
There are boys and girls. The oldest is the boy, and the youngest is only a few months old and has not been weaned yet.
At this moment, a baby's cry was heard from inside the house. The old man hurried in and said, "Third girl, what's wrong with Xiaobao? Is he hungry?"
"Oh, don't cry, Xiaobao, grandpa will hold you~"
Xue Huan probed her spiritual sense inside and saw that the old man was holding a seven or eight month old baby in his arms. He was holding the baby very skillfully. He was teasing the baby, making faces and making strange noises on purpose, while shaking his arms.
A little girl in her teens stood beside him, one of her hands held by the baby. Despite her young age, she already had a motherly demeanor: "Grandpa, I'm afraid the baby is hungry."
"We don't have milk for him at home. What should we do?" Old Man Tang was very worried.
"How about I take Xiaobao to Uncle Shunzi's house up ahead and have a meal?"
The uncle Shunzi that the third girl mentioned has a daughter-in-law who just gave birth and has plenty of milk.
Ping An, the young man who had just returned with the bird eggs, said, "San Ni'er, take the bird eggs I took with you. You can't come empty-handed."
Before Sannier came out with Xiaobao, Xue Huan, who was standing outside under the tree, had already walked to a roadside stall selling sugar-roasted chestnuts and started buying chestnuts.
"Aa ...
Hearing the baby's soft cry, Xue Huan subconsciously turned her head and her eyes met the little treasure in Sanni'er's arms.
Xiaobao had just cried, and there were still tears in his big black grape-like eyes. His long eyelashes were wet, and some of them were stuck together. It was so adorable to look at him!
What made her even more flattered was that Xiaobao actually stretched out his hands towards her, obviously wanting her to hold him!
Sannier looked at Xue Huan in surprise.
You have to know that when Xiaobao first came, he was very shy and would not let anyone hold him. He kept crying. Even now, the little guy doesn't recognize everyone. He only stops crying when she and grandpa hold him. He won't let anyone else get close to him.
The kid is so small, but he has a bad temper.
And now, he actually took the initiative to throw himself into the arms of a stranger? Could it be that the sister was someone he knew before?
However, when Sannier saw the surprise on the sister's face, she knew that was not the case.
Xue Huan came over and asked San Ni'er in a gentle voice, "This little guy is so cute. Can I hold him?"
In fact, Sanni'er didn't need to agree. Xiaobao had already leaned towards her, with most of his body leaning out.
Xue Huan hurriedly caught him.
As soon as he was in her arms, the little guy grinned and giggled, with a stream of crystal saliva flowing from the corner of his mouth.
He hugged her neck with both hands, rested his head on her neck, and his saliva flowed down to her collar.
San Ni'er was a little embarrassed. She quickly took out a handkerchief and wiped him clean. She apologized to Xue Huan at the same time: "I'm sorry, sister. Xiaobao soiled your clothes."
It was obvious that this sister's clothes were made of valuable silk.
Xue Huan carefully held the soft and sweet little person in her arms, "It's okay, a child's saliva isn't dirty."
Seeing Xiaobao holding onto someone and refusing to let go, Sannier had no choice but to say, "Xiaobao, aren't you hungry? I'll take you to Uncle Shunzi's house to drink some milk, okay?"
She tentatively reached out to hug him.
Xiaobao turned around, put his head on Xue Huan's neck, and faced her with his butt.
San Ni'er didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but Xue Huan's heart softened at the little guy's affectionate gesture. "How about you lead the way? I'll hold him."
"This... then I'll trouble you, sister."
"It's okay, I like Xiaobao too."
The vendor over there weighed the chestnuts and called out to Xue Huan, "Girl, your chestnuts—"
"Oh yes, I almost forgot." Xue Huan walked over, paid the money and took the chestnuts in her hand.
Xiaobao was attracted by the aroma of chestnuts. He looked over curiously and his saliva flowed even more happily.
Xue Huan found it inconvenient to hold him, so she gave the chestnuts to San Ni'er and coaxed the little guy softly, "You are too young to eat chestnuts now."
She thought for a while, what could be eaten by a child of this age in the space, but she couldn't find anything after searching around. She could only take out a grape and let the little guy hold it in his hand and chew it slowly.
The grapes were big and round, as big as the little guy's hands, and he had to hold them with both hands.
The sweet smell tempted the little guy. He held the grapes and chewed them with his pink gums and newly grown teeth, his saliva watering.
Xue Huan didn't dislike the little guy at all. Instead, she was so adorable that she wanted to give him a loud sip on his chubby cheek.
But no, she had to restrain herself and not scare the little guy.
Xue Huan lagged behind half a step and followed San Ni'er to a house, asking the hostess to feed Xiaobao.
Xiaobao was indeed hungry, and under the temptation of milk, he temporarily let go of Xue Huan.
But as soon as he had eaten and drunk his fill, he came to look for Xue Huan.
So Xue Huan carried the little one back, and San Nier was unable to pick him up the whole time.
On the way, Xue Huan teased Xiaobao while chatting with Sanni'er, and subtly asked about the situation in the Huiyou Bureau by Father Tang.
The more I get to know her, the more rare she becomes.
Daddy Tang treats every adopted child very well and treats them as his own.
However, the relationship between Mr. Tang and his biological son is like fire and water, and they always quarrel every time they meet.
"Brother Tang used to be very kind to us, but later he had a big fight with Grandpa because of us..."
As the two were talking, they had already returned to the Tang family, only to see a group of people gathered in front of the Tang family's door.
"Old Tang, you have a quarter of an hour to get these brats out of here, or we'll be rude to you."
A man in his twenties with a scar on his face and a common look said to Old Man Tang.
Ping An: "Why do you want us to move out? This is the Tang family!"
The scarred man showed a house deed and said, "Look, what is this? A house deed! Now this house belongs to our Wanfeng Bank."
Seeing the house deed, Father Tang was shaken. "How did the house deed end up in your hands?"
"Of course, that kid Tang Yu owed our bank money, and since he couldn't pay it back, he used the house deed as collateral."
