The boys' appetite was completely aroused, and they couldn't wait to take Fubao out, determined to catch a big crab.
However, only adults know that it is not yet the season for eating crabs. The crabs are small, and it is not dark yet, so they are hiding and will not come out. How can they be easily caught?
Fubao was also longing for the dishes the village chief had mentioned. Seeing that her brothers were carrying small bamboo baskets and small bamboo baskets, she realized that these things would not be enough to pack the crabs later.
She turned around and pulled the sleeve of the village chief's eldest grandson behind her, "Big brother, can you bring a big bamboo basket?"
The eldest grandson was already in junior high school. Normally, he would start to be interested in girls of the same age during puberty, and would not be interested in little kids like this. However, when he saw Fubao looking up at him with her fair little face, his heart suddenly softened.
Suddenly, he had a thought: Even if the little girl wanted the moon in the sky, he would pick it for her!
He couldn't refuse Fubao, and couldn't help but rub her little head with his hand, "Okay, big brother will go get a bigger bamboo basket now."
Soon, he brought out a bamboo basket that was bigger than Fubao's, big enough to put her in. Fubao was very satisfied and followed her brothers out with great interest.
Shen Jianian usually doesn't like to go out and play. He likes to stay at home and read books when he has free time. When he saw Fubao was about to go out, he followed him without thinking.
Huo Jinxi was even less interested in this matter. It was impossible to catch fish with a group of little brats. It would be too embarrassing. However, he also wanted to go.
Before leaving, Old Lady Shen reminded her four boys, saying with a serious face: "All four of you should keep an eye on Nannan, do you hear me? If Nannan loses even a hair, I will not let you off!"
She said this because she remembered the time when Fubao fell into the river and almost died. Although it had been a while, she was still scared every time she thought about it, and even woke up from a nightmare. So even if there were so many boys taking care of Fubao, she still felt uneasy.
Shen Zhishu nodded solemnly, "Grandma, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of my sister. I will lead her and not let her go into the river. Is that okay?"
The other three boys also solemnly promised that they would look after Fubao and would never let anything happen to her.
Only then did Old Mrs. Shen feel relieved. She stood at the door and watched them leave before returning to the house to discuss business with the village chief together with Old Man Shen.
Outside the house, some villagers who had just finished working in the fields happened to pass by and saw a group of children surrounding Fubao and walking towards the river. All the children were boys, except Fubao, a girl. The boys also tried every way to talk to Fubao and make her happy. The scene was really... hard to describe.
It's just like the servants in ancient times protecting the young lady when she went on tour, which is quite funny.
Originally, the villagers thought it was unbelievable and incomprehensible that the Shen family treated a girl as a treasure, but now they have gradually gotten used to it. Besides, Fubao is so beautiful, she will definitely be a great beauty in the future, and maybe she can marry into a wealthy family. At that time, the betrothal gift will be indispensable, and the Shen family can make a fortune.
Also, if you treat her well now, she will think of her parents' home when she gets married. Just for these reasons, you have to spoil this girl!
However, the villagers did not know that the Shen family had never thought about what they were thinking about.
