Not only did she not get any work points, but she also got herself dirty. Cheng Zhenzhu had to leave work early and take the mud kids home. At the door, she bumped into Yitiao and Ertiao, who were running towards her with their school bags on their backs and fists raised.
"Mom, what happened?" Er Tiao looked around at his four younger brothers, his little face full of surprise.
Three was discouraged. He had tried really hard, there was black mud between his fingernails, but there seemed to be even more black mud on his body, all from being rubbed by his brothers... Six, seven, eight round heads buried their heads, they really only played for a short while.
The mud-dumpling Qi Tiao was holding his hands in his pockets. He had originally wanted to call back his six older brothers and younger brother, but he couldn't, so they just played together. However, his younger brothers rolled around, but he didn't hit them...
Ichijo and Erjo frowned and looked at it, thinking it must be because they were not here. If they were here, four work points would be a sure thing! The younger brother could just watch from the side.
Cheng Zhenzhu looked at the two students who were eager to try, some even considering "dropping out of school to work," and quickly dissuaded them. Four work points could only be exchanged for two sweet potatoes, so they should hurry up and go to school.
The first and second ones are a bit regrettable. How can going to school be as fun as working?
"Wash your hands first. I'll boil some water for you to take a bath." Cheng Zhenzhu looked at the four clay dolls and went to wash the pot and boil some water. After the bath, she made the six dolls change into clean clothes and found some nail clippers to help them trim their fingernails and toenails.
Sixth Man is usually restless, but he always cooperates with every nail trim. He's leaning back on the sofa, stretching his legs and enjoying it. Seeing his mother finish trimming in no time, he's a little unhappy. He immediately leans over to watch his mother trimming Seventh Man's nails.
Ba Tiao also likes to have his nails trimmed, so he runs out early, stretches out his two little paws and waits nearby.
After taking a bath, the children's nails were very soft and easy to trim. Cheng Zhenzhu finished the seven nails in no time. Speaking of which, she felt that the two little buns, Qi Tiao and Ba Tiao, seemed to have turned black?
Sure enough, living by the sea and wanting to be fair is quite difficult. What's more, these two little ones love to run around outside, especially Eight, who is a little follower, going wherever Six points...
After trimming her nails, Cheng Zhenzhu thought about styling her hair. She shaved her hair with a straight razor, and soon, six little bald heads appeared.
The next morning, when Cheng Zhenzhu led the four round balls up the mountain, she attracted more attention.
"These bald kids are so handsome..."
"That's right, Aiqing family, your relatives' kids are all really good-looking. When your chubby nephew smiled just now, my heart melted..."
"Sister Zhenzhu, your little ones look more energetic after being dressed up." You Yumei washed her hands and came over to touch Liu Tiao. "Liu Tiao, don't take your two brothers to roll in the mud again today..."
Liu Tiao pushed his hand away and said unhappily, "Aunt Mei, pat my head, you won't grow taller!"
Hahahahahahaha. The people around and You Yumei all laughed heartily. This little kid is quite particular. "Okay, okay, no touching. Listen to your mother today and don't run around anymore..."
"Be obedient." San Tiao nodded, seriously and obediently.
Yu Xiaoyue, an educated youth hoeing the fields, noticed the bustling crowd and cast a glance over, her gaze finally settling on two identical bald heads. She didn't know why, but she felt the twins looked a bit like someone she knew.
Especially after shaving his head, he looks even more familiar. Who does he resemble? The man who delivered several large boxes of gifts during the Chinese New Year also looked familiar, but he probably wasn't a relative of Cheng Saozi's...
Yu Xiaoyue was so lost in thought that she had no desire to work. Meanwhile, the four little kids were working incredibly hard today, having regretted rolling in the mud yesterday.
Cheng Zhenzhu didn't know the determination of the dolls. She only knew that a few strips were scattered everywhere, and she had to collect the dolls after work in the afternoon.
Six loves to run around, as does Eight. Seven is obedient, but caught between his older brothers, he's easily led astray... As for Three, he's absolutely well-behaved and hardworking. He tries to work well with her, but he also has to keep an eye on his brothers, checking to see if they're up to anything. Running back and forth makes her busy.
Generally speaking, the little ones are quite obedient and will not leave her sight even when playing...
Ah! It was Gu Xixi. Yu Xiaoyue lay awake most of the night, still wondering who the twins looked like. After repeatedly searching through everyone she knew, she finally came up with an answer. It wasn't surprising she'd been wondering for so long; they hadn't seen each other in over three years, ever since Gu Xixi left Sanshi Island. She'd long since forgotten this once "good friend."
But why was Gu Xixi's child sent to Sanshi Island to be raised by Cheng Saozi? They even sent all the stuff here, several large boxes, like they were moving house, but they didn't even show up?
I heard that this Cheng Saozi likes to help others raise children. She helped raise her fourth child, saying that the child's parents had died...
Wait, dead? Did something happen to Gu Xixi and that soldier? Why did Sister Cheng say the two kids were relatives? Yu Xiaoyue thought about it over and over again, but she was puzzled. Finally, she decided to go find the twins tomorrow to find out the truth.
