Yun Xiaoxiao slept very soundly and comfortably that night.
As the saying goes, "Even in a golden nest or a silver nest, one can't live without one's own doghouse."
It's so much more comfortable at home.
When she woke up in the morning, the sun was already high in the sky.
There was no one at home except for Gou Dan'er, who was sitting to the side, playing with two crickets that Yuan's father had woven for him.
Yun Xiaoxiao squatted down beside him and played with him, even teaching him:
"Dog Egg, come here and call me Auntie."
Gou Dan'er smiled and looked at her, then called out in a childish voice, "Auntie."
Yun Xiaoxiao was overjoyed by that "Auntie".
She's tried teaching Gou Dan'er so many times, but Gou Dan'er just won't bark.
Unexpectedly, when she came back from her trip, Gou Dan'er actually called her name.
Holding Gou Dan'er in her arms, she gave him a big kiss on the cheek.
"My dog, Gou Dan, is so well-behaved; he can even call me 'Auntie' now."
Auntie will make you lots of delicious food in the future.
I promise to fatten up our dog, Dan'er.
Thinking of how chubby and adorable Gou Dan'er would look in the future, Yun Xiaoxiao couldn't help but laugh out loud.
When Yuan's mother came back and heard the laughter while hanging clothes to dry in the back, she couldn't help but smile as well.
"What are you laughing at? I could hear your laughter from far away."
Yun Xiaoxiao immediately called out, "Mother, come quickly, Gou Dan'er can call me Auntie now."
He called me just now.
Mother Yuan laughed and said, "Really? Gou Dan'er, call out to your grandma again."
Dog Egg obediently called out "Auntie" again.
Yun Xiaoxiao then said, "Gou Dan'er, quickly call Grandma."
Call out to Grandma.
Gou Dan called out "Grandma" again.
The voice was very clear and crisp, without any ambiguity.
It seems like it will start barking soon.
So Yuan's mother and Yun Xiaoxiao teased Gou Dan'er together, calling out to everyone in the family.
Time slips away day by day.
There's not much farm work to do this season.
The weeds in the field were all cleared away by the diligent Mrs. Yuan.
When they had free time, they even started clearing land on the nearby slope.
Yuan's mother didn't allow Yun Xiaoxiao to get involved in any of the work on the mountain.
They said she was young and a girl.
You can just cook at home.
Besides playing with Gou Dan'er, teaching him to speak, and singing nursery rhymes, Yun Xiaoxiao has nothing else to do every day.
It was originally agreed that Yun Xiaoxiao would cook.
But every time Yuan's mother came back, she would send her aside.
Yun Xiaoxiao also felt a bit bored, so she dragged Yuan Shitou to the mountain to catch a litter of baby rabbits to raise.
Rabbits grow quickly and reproduce rapidly.
Furthermore, their excrement can be used as fertilizer.
Wild rabbits love to burrow, and they can escape if you're not careful.
Yun Xiaoxiao racked her brains a lot for this matter.
In the end, Yuan Shitou took her to the riverbank and they collected a lot of pebbles.
That's how the problem was solved.
So, bored, Yun Xiaoxiao would take Gou Dan'er to gather grass around the house every day to feed the rabbits.
That day, while watching Yuan's father weaving bamboo baskets, he suddenly had an inspiration.
He ran into the house, found a piece of paper, and then took a piece of twig that hadn't been fully burned from the kitchen and started doodling.
Yuan Shitou's family had paper, a thick stack of it.
The paper was thick and white.
It's a bit like the sketch paper we use now.
I originally intended to draw directly on the paper using twigs.
Because his ideas were not yet fully developed, he drafted them on the ground.
He drew and erased, erased and drew again, until he was covered in sweat.
Dog Egg squatted down beside her and watched her draw.
They don't cause trouble and are very well-behaved.
When Yuan Shitou and his mother returned, they saw the two of them head to head, drawing something on the ground.
Curious, I stepped forward.
Seeing Yun Xiaoxiao's face covered in dirt, he was immediately stunned.
Mrs. Yuan said with a smile, "Oh my, my daughter! How did you turn into a little kitten?"
Yun Xiaoxiao blinked in confusion, then, as if remembering something, quickly reached out and wiped her face.
Unexpectedly, this touch made it even more messy.
This made Yuan Shitou laugh heartily.
Yun Xiaoxiao just stared at Yuan Shitou.
Suddenly, he called out to his mother, who was washing her hands, "Mother, Brother Shitou is laughing at me."
Yuan Shitou was stunned, thinking to himself that something was wrong.
Before he could stop laughing, he was hit several times.
Mother Yuan scolded, "Look at you, you black bear, all filthy, and you still dare to laugh at our little one."
Are you being too tight-lipped?
"Hurry up and bring Xiaoxiao some water to wash her face. You're so slow!"
Mr. Yuan just smiled and glanced in this direction before burying himself in tidying up his bamboo basket.
While Yun Xiaoxiao was washing her face, Yuan's mother asked:
"Xiaoxiao, what are you drawing?"
It looks a bit like a basket to me.
Yun Xiaoxiao shook the water off her hands, ran over, pointed to the pattern on the ground, and said:
"Mother, you noticed it too?"
What I drew is a basket.
Look, if you add a handle to this, it becomes a basket again.
"How is it? Pretty, right?"
Mrs. Yuan didn't understand at all, but she still gave a perfunctory answer:
"Beautiful, beautiful."
My little one is so smart, she even thought of this.
Yun Xiaoxiao was overjoyed to receive the praise.
He picked up a piece of paper and started drawing seriously.
After she finished drawing, she realized that Gou Dan'er was still squatting to the side.
He was also drawing with a twig in his hand.
When I went over to take a look, I was incredibly surprised.
Gou Dan'er drew the pattern she left on the ground, and it looked very similar.
This discovery made Yun Xiaoxiao extremely happy.
I never expected that my little dog, Egg, who is only a little over a year old, would have such a great talent.
No, we can't let it go to waste.
Starting today, she will teach Gou Dan'er to draw.
I'll try to train him to be a great painter.
Having made up her mind, Yun Xiaoxiao told Yuan's mother about it.
Mother Yuan naturally agreed wholeheartedly.
I've heard that some painters can sell a single painting for tens or even hundreds of yuan.
If Gou Dan'er had that ability, he wouldn't have to worry about not being able to find a wife in the future.
It must be said that Yuan's mother had thought things through quite far ahead.
Dog Egg is only a little over a year old, and she's already thinking about him getting married.
Then he glanced at Yuan Shitou, who was weaving baskets beside him.
She pursed her lips and said, "This son is big and burly, like a bear."
Aside from being strong, he's useless in every other way.
That's like Gou Dan'er, who's only a little over a year old, yet he already has such great talent.
People really can't be compared to each other.
Yuan Shitou was unaware that he was being looked down upon by his own mother.
She would also steal glances at Yun Xiaoxiao, who was diligently drawing, from time to time.
He noticed that Xiaoxiao had gained a lot of weight.
It looks much better than when we first arrived.
Xiaoxiao is 14 years old this year, and will be 17 in three years.
Will I still be too young to get married by then?
Or should we wait another two years?
It seems like it will take a while. Do I have the patience to wait?
Don't let someone else snatch the fat meat that's already in your mouth.
Then he won't have anywhere to cry.
Little Fatty Yun had no idea what Yuan Shitou was thinking.
If he knew, I would definitely cry in front of him.
She's so young, and she already wants to get married.
Does he have pedophilia?
However, she still noticed Yuan Shitou's occasional glances at her.
I felt that the raw stone was a bit strange today, so I quietly looked at it.
