Niupitang’s second birthday happened to be on Sunday, and Xu An made noodles and boiled eggs for them in the morning.
Xiao Mo sleeps here at night now. He helped Niupitang put on his clothes, took them to the cowshed for a walk, and visited Grandpa Qi and Mr. and Mrs. Xu.
"Brother Mo, Brother Mo, are you done packing? Let's go fishing."
Xiaowang, Chuizi and a few others ran and shouted with baskets in their hands.
"Brothers, you are here so early. Wait a moment, I will go back to get my stuff."
Then he said to Niupitang, "You three can go home and play. Your uncle will go fishing and make soup for you at noon."
Niu Niu and Pi Pi immediately pulled him back, not wanting him to leave. Pi Pi said, "Uncle, take us with you. We want to go fishing, too."
"What are you doing fishing when you are so young? Be obedient and go home."
Then he said to Xiao Wang and the others, "Brothers, you go first. I will come back to find you after I send the ox-hide candy back."
The two boys hugged the tree and refused to go home. Xu Mo grabbed their collars and walked forward, pulling the two boys to stagger. Tangtang followed behind them.
Niu Niu and Pi Pi shouted loudly: "I won't go home, I want to go fishing too. Uncle, you are so bad. You went out to play without us. I will tell grandma and grandpa and let them spank you."
The two boys were making very loud noises. Xu Ning could hear them howling at home, but she didn't go out. Xiao Mo could handle them anyway.
The people at the Youth League Home also heard their shouting, but everyone was used to it, as these two guys would come a few times a day.
Either the two brothers quarreled over something, or they fought each other. It was very lively anyway.
Xu Mo brought the three of them home and said to Xu Ning who was doing the laundry, "Sister, I'm going to go fishing with Hammer and the others. You just watch over Niupi Tang."
After saying that, he ran out with a basket. Seeing that Niu Niu Pipi was about to follow him, he closed the door from the outside.
When the two boys saw that their uncle had left them and ran away, they sat down on the ground and started howling.
Xu Ning continued washing clothes as if she didn't hear anything and didn't even glance over there.
Niu Niu and Pippi howled a few times, but saw that their uncle had not come back and even their mother ignored them.
He wanted to get up by himself, but felt too embarrassed to do so, so he sat on the ground groaning.
Tangtang glanced at her mother, then looked at her two brothers sitting on the ground, then walked over to pull them up.
"Brother, get up, the ground is dirty."
When the two boys saw their sister coming to pull them up, they got up from the ground and secretly glanced at their mother again.
Seeing her washing clothes with an expressionless face, he led his sister over, and the three of them surrounded their mother.
Xu Ning looked at the two boys in front of him and asked, "Are you not crying anymore?"
Niu Niu and Pi Pi lowered their heads a little embarrassedly.
"You two are still little men, but you sit on the ground and cry and throw tantrums all the time. What kind of people are you?"
Niu Niu pouted and said, "Mom, we want to go play too."
"Yes, we also want to go fishing, but our uncle went out to play by himself and didn't take us." Pippi also complained.
"Just because your uncle didn't take you out to play, you two sat on the ground and threw a tantrum. Will you roll on the ground if something doesn't go your way in the future?"
Niu Niu and Pippi secretly glanced at their mother, and seeing her gloomy face, they were a little scared.
Niu Niu thought for a while and said, "Mom, my brother and I won't roll on the ground anymore."
Pippi also promised, "Mom, I will be obedient in the future."
Xu Ning smiled and patted their heads and said, "Okay, Mom will trust you this time. You are two-year-old little men. You must keep your word, otherwise Tangtang and I will laugh at you."
Tangtang also imitated her mother and touched the heads of her two brothers, and said with a smile, "Brothers must be obedient. Children who don't listen will wet the bed at night. Shame on you."
The two brothers who often wet the bed felt embarrassed again when they heard Tangtang’s words. Could it be that they were too disobedient and that’s why they wet the bed every night?
Xu Ning suppressed his laughter and glanced at the two boys, "You three can play at home for a while. When mom finishes washing the clothes, I will take you to watch your uncle fishing."
Niu Niu and Pi Pi couldn't wait any longer, so they asked, "Mom, let Uncle wash the clothes, and we can go play."
"You're such a good planner, little brat. Today is your birthday, and your uncle went to the city to buy you some meat. Why, don't you want to eat meat?"
The three of them didn't know what celebrating a birthday meant, but when they heard about having meat to eat, they couldn't help drooling.
Xu Ning couldn't help laughing when he saw their greedy looks, but he didn't let them down at all.
Every day I eat either meat porridge, eggs, or fried meat, and I eat all three. Why am I still so greedy?
