"Isn't it beautiful?"
Shen Liuliu showed off with a grin.
Shen Tiantian walked over, smiling as she took the bead and held it up to Shen Liuliu's head, her thin face full of ingratiating smiles.
"If we could make some beaded flowers to wear on Liu Liu's head, they would look really nice."
Shen Tiantian's voice was soft and gentle, and she was extremely docile, never arguing or fighting.
Shen Liuliu also quite liked this cousin; she was truly different from the others in her uncle's family.
He then said with a smile, "When Liu Liu makes a lot of money, she'll buy lots and lots of beautiful pig-shaped flowers for Sister Tian Tian!"
"Pfft, silly girl, it's a beaded flower." Shen Tiantian chuckled, pinched Liu Liu's cheek, and laughed happily.
By this time, Tian Guifen had already combed her hair and said, "Let's go. Tiantian, we're going to town, you can come along too."
"Really?" Shen Tiantian was flattered.
She hasn't been to town many times yet.
Seeing her like this, Liu Liu felt so sorry for her, so she took her hand and said, "Sister, let's go together."
Shen Tiantian glanced at An An, but immediately looked away when she saw his stern face.
Before the four of them had even reached the village entrance, Shen Tiantian was grabbed by the ear and scolded by Da Zhoushi, who appeared out of nowhere.
"You shameless wretch, you're really a 'whoever feeds me is my mother' type! What, are you going to call someone 'mother'?"
"Have you finished washing all the clothes at home? Have you mixed the pig feed? All you do is run around outside, you have no sense of propriety at all!"
It would have been one thing if it had happened in front of the villagers, but this time An'an was also present. Shen Tiantian's eyes instantly turned red, and her face and neck also turned bright red.
She whispered, "I've finished all my work."
"Finished? If you're done, go wash your nephew's diapers, you ungrateful wretch, you freeloader!"
Perhaps seeing how pitiful Shen Tiantian was, Tian Guifen wanted to stand up for her.
Before she could even open her mouth, Shen Tiantian immediately admitted her mistake: "I'll go right now, Mom, don't be angry."
Then, his small eyes filled with pleading as he looked at Tian Guifen.
The latter sighed and remained silent.
Only after Madam Zhou triumphantly dragged Shen Tiantian away did Tian Guifen continue walking with her daughter in her arms.
"Auntie, you're so mean."
Shen Liuliu wrinkled her nose, looking somewhat unhappy.
Tian Guifen asked her, "Why didn't you say that just now?"
“I’m not stupid,” Shen Liuliu pouted and shook her head. “Do you think I’m a three-year-old? If I swear, that bad woman will beat my sister again.”
Madam Zhou couldn't do anything about her, but she would vent all her resentment on her own daughter.
It's fair to say that Shen Tiantian is the punching bag for their whole family.
"Pfft, what are you if you're not a three-year-old?" Tian Guifen asked with a smile, pinching her daughter's little nose.
"Three and a half years old."
"Three and a half years old."
Shen Liuliu and An'an's voices rang out at the same time.
"You two have pretty good chemistry."
"Hmph, who's in sync with him?" Shen Liuliu pouted, leaned against her mother's back, and didn't even glance at An'an.
Tian Guifen said to her, "Liu Liu, you mustn't be so rude."
"snort."
"It's alright, Auntie. Liu Liu is probably just shy because she kissed me earlier," An An said seriously.
He didn't understand at first, but then it dawned on him.
Because of that perfume powder, Liu Liu initially tried to undress him and kiss him.
Once you're sober, how could you not feel ashamed?
"You still dare to talk!"
Shen Liuliu was furious and started swinging her little feet violently, "Mom, put me down! I'm going to beat him to death!"
That's terrible.
Why are you still talking?
Originally, she was just using the tiger's power as a pretext, but unexpectedly, her mother actually put her down.
Shen Liuliu's expression didn't immediately change; she looked somewhat bewildered as her legs suddenly landed on the ground.
"Go on, Liu Liu."
“…” Shen Liuliu.
This person looks exactly like the kind of cunning and vengeful character she'd read in those old folk tales!
If she...
"Don't come any closer!"
Before Shen Liuliu could figure it out, she suddenly noticed An'an walking towards her.
An An honestly said, "I'll move closer, otherwise you won't be able to hit me."
What Shen Liuliu heard, translated into the words of the villainous male supporting character in a folk tale:
Come on, try hitting me!
I'll crush you with one hand!
"Wow!"
Shen Liuliu was both scared and embarrassed, so she turned around and hugged her mother, pretending to cry.
Tian Guifen was both amused and exasperated. Instead of immediately picking up her daughter, she watched the spectacle unfold: "An'an has practically delivered herself to your doorstep for you to beat up, and you're still crying?"
"Bad mommy! I love daddy the most!"
Shen Liuliu bit her mother's leg in anger!
"Oh dear, you naughty girl!" Tian Guifen knew she couldn't tease the girl anymore, so she picked her up.
Then he said to An'an, "An'an, Liu Liu is just teasing you. She doesn't dare to hit you because she feels she'll lose face, so..."
"Don't babble!"
Shen Liuliu hurriedly covered her mother's mouth, and before she knew it, a drop of saliva dribbled from the corner of her mouth.
She instinctively looked to see if An'an had seen her, and then met the eyes of the little boy looking up at her.
Help!
Why does he always see me make a fool of myself?
Shen Liuliu wanted to cry.
An'an also wanted to cry.
Did he do something wrong?
He's clearly obedient. Didn't Xiao Liu say before that he liked obedient people?
They made their way to town and sold the turtle to their usual restaurant.
Thanks to Liu Liu, the Shen family has now become acquainted with the restaurant in town that sells wild game.
“An’an, you and Liu Liu found this turtle together and sold it for twenty taels of silver. Here are ten taels of silver for you. Keep it.”
"Thank you, ma'am."
An An didn't stand on ceremony either.
"Ah, Mother~"
As soon as Liu Liu saw the silver, her eyes were glued to it, and her voice softened unconsciously.
Tian Guifen was both amused and exasperated. She picked up her daughter and said, "How about we use all ten taels of silver to buy jewelry for Liu Liu?"
A daughter should always have some jewelry saved up.
When she gets married, she will have jewelry to keep at the bottom of her dowry.
It's always good to buy something for my daughter every year.
"Thank you, Mother. You're the best. I don't want any of the sixty-six pieces of silver. I'll leave you a tael of silver to buy clothes and good food."
"Our Liu Liu is really generous."
Tian Guifen didn't complain about the amount being too little.
The mother and her two children arrived at the jewelry shop quickly.
Tian Guifen let Liu Liu choose a very thin gold necklace, which cost seven taels of silver.
I also picked out a pair of small and cute silver bracelets.
Unexpectedly, Liu Liu didn't want the pair of silver bracelets.
"Doesn't Liu Liu like it?"
"Um."
Shen Liuliu nodded heavily, climbed over the counter, grabbed a silver bracelet, and insisted on putting it on her mother.
It is a pair of silver bracelets shaped like loaches, with the words "peace and joy" engraved on the bracelet body, and the bracelet opening is shaped like a loach's head.
She wasn't particularly beautiful, but she suited Tian Guifen's age well.
The key point is that it's very heavy.
"Give it to Mom, Liu Liu doesn't want the bracelet anymore, buy it for Mom." Shen Liu Liu shook the silver bell on her wrist and showed a sweet smile, "Liu Liu has one, buy it for Mom."
"Oh my, how old is the little girl? She's so filial. Madam is so lucky. This bracelet is wonderful, it's..."
The shopkeeper immediately praised the silver bracelet as something unparalleled in the world.
