Tian Guihua wiped her tears, “How could that be?”

She thought it must have been her crying that upset her daughter's heart. She quickly wiped away her tears.

She wasn't hoping for her daughter to marry into a wealthy family. Even if her godparents were ordinary people, she still had to visit them on their birthday. She couldn't let people think she was rude and out of touch.

"Mother, don't cry."

The little dumpling rubbed the tears from Tian Guihua's face with her chubby hand, and Tian Guihua laughed through her tears.

"Look, mother, why are you crying? This is a good thing, something other families would beg for!"

Tian Guihua said and went to the cabinet to get clothes for her little daughter, letting her choose by herself.

Fu Jiujiu's little wardrobe is definitely the envy of all the girls in the village. Her second aunt has nimble hands, her clothes are numerous and can't be worn out, let alone patching them up.

As for the little clothes and pants I wore when I was a child, they are now worn by Erpang and S pang. Even my sister-in-law lives well and doesn't mind wearing what I used to wear.

Sometimes, even Fujuu gets a little embarrassed by what we do.

Tien Guihua was afraid that her little daughter wouldn't be able to take care of herself, so she brought as many clothes as possible. For such a small child, the luggage she carried weighed twice as much as herself.

Little dumpling followed the two older brothers, and Fu Si Jin couldn't help but tease, "Mother, wouldn't you be bringing too much for your little sister?"

He said what the Zhou family wouldn't dare to say, a little child, so many clothes, she envied her to death.

It's not much, just replace it when it's worn out. Chirp is so small, you expect her to wash her own clothes?

Fu Sijin smiled wryly, "Mother, do you think the county magistrate's family doesn't have servants? This sort of thing shouldn't be something that requires the little sister to do herself."

Tien Guihua had forgotten about this, she was poor and didn't know that wealthy families didn't have to do everything themselves.

"Mother, our life is going well now. With so many of us in the family, it would be quite helpful to have two servants."

Zhou still wanted to draw people to her side, saying, "Erjin, when that time comes, you won't have to worry about being a big man circling the stove. Sister-in-law, you won't have to wash diapers for two little ones."

"A servant?" Tian Guihua sneered, "Two days of good living and you've become bloated. Are you too tired to eat? Then don't."

Fu Dagjin quickly went to pull his daughter-in-law's clothes, winking and gesturing for her to stop talking.

Zhou shi was puzzled. She wondered why her mother-in-law always disliked what she said. After thinking about it, she felt that her mother-in-law obviously disliked her.

It's alright, I can just wait until I have a daughter of my own.

When the carriage passed by the big house, Fu Jiujiu discussed with her two brothers to stop and get off. She had to go ask for leave.

That's right, it's about taking a leave. Otherwise, the little boy will get angry.

She was so good at skipping class in her past life, even spending money on education couldn't stop her. Now she's so obedient.

Tang Xian was not at home, so Fu Jiujiu asked Cui Mama to relay the message.

Very soon, the carriage drove out of the village. Fu Jiu Jiu noticed that her two older brothers were staring at her, their eyes like they were looking at a novel toy.

She wasn't shy either, and returned his gaze boldly.

"Aren't you crying?" Zhou Zhongbo brought a lot of delicious and fun things, thinking that if the little sister cried on the way back, he would take them out to coax her.

But... little sister didn't react at all.

Fu Jiujiu's eyes twinkled, "Why are you crying? You're not scary."

Zou Zhongbo smiled and scratched his head, "Of course I'm not scary. Didn't you even cry when you left your mother? Look at you, you're not that old!"

"Jiujiu is two and a half years old." Zou Yuansong accurately stated the age of the little团子.

This actually surprised the little dumpling.

It seems like this big brother came prepared.

"When Jiji's siblings were two years old, they already knew how to cry."

When it comes to his cousins, Zou Zhongbai shows a clear disdain. He much prefers his younger cousin sister. Not only is she intelligent and quick-witted, but she's also not a crybaby, and her appearance is quite handsome, making him want to pinch her cheeks.

Noticing his brother's intentions, Zou Yuansong stepped in, "Zhongbei, you can't touch your sister."

"Why?" Zhou Zhongbo misunderstood, "Brother, I just gently pinch her, I won't make her hurt."

"Men and women should not have close relations, you can't just do whatever you want."

She is our sister.

That won't work either.

Under the elder brother's insistence, Fu Jiujiu's little face was spared from harm.

Although she wasn't crying, Zou Zhongbo still took out the small toy he had prepared for her. "Play with this, girls should all like these, right?"

Look, what is it?

Jack-in-the-box, clay figurines, windmills, and rattles...

It's not the two brothers' fault, it's just that ancient children's toys were too scarce. There weren't many options available on the market back then.

Zou Yuansong saw that the little girl was unimpressed, "Little sister, what do you like? When we get to the county town later, my brothers will buy it for you."

Zou Zhongbai's temper was a bit hot, and he felt a little wronged. After all, these were the results of his hard work.

"If you don't like these, what do you like?"

"Zhong Bai, speak softly, don't scare the little sister." Zou Yuansong reminded.

Such a cute little ball of fluff, in the hands of its parents it's definitely a precious treasure, being able to let it go is already very difficult, but we can't let her get wronged.

"Oh, sister, don't be afraid, second brother doesn't mean anything else." Zou Zhongbo also realized that he might have been too impetuous and quickly comforted her.

"If you don't like this, that's okay. Tell your older brothers what you like to play, and they will definitely buy it for you, okay?"

This time the voice is much gentler.

Fu Jiujiu chuckled and rummaged through her small bag, pulling out a bunch of things.

Zhou Yuansong saw the little girl's small package was simply a treasure trove, containing everything to eat, wear, and play with.

"I'll play this." Fu ChuChu pulled out a checkers board.

"What is this? It looks like chess, but I've never seen it before."

Of course I haven't seen it, this is what she had her magpie make for her.

Zou Yuansong also picked it up and looked at it again, confirming that he had never seen it before, "Sister, what is this?"

"My parrot made this for me, it's called checkers."

"Checkers? I've never heard of that." Zou Yuansong found it interesting after hearing Fu Jiujiao introduce the rules, "You mean these were all made by your brother?"

"That's right." Credit goes to the myna bird for that.

He made me lots of toys, and this one, and this... and this.

Two brothers saw a little baby ball of fluff present them with a pile of things they had never seen before.

"Just these two pieces of wood, called a toy? How do you even play with it?" Zou Zhongbai said with some disdain, holding the wooden Chinese puzzle.

Fu JiuJiu immediately demonstrated it, then closed it and handed it to him, "You try?"

Zou Zhongbei picked it up and tried to separate it, but it wouldn't budge. Only then did he realize that while this thing looked simple, it was actually quite difficult.

Meanwhile, Zou Yuansong on the side was astonished. He exclaimed that this little sister's eight-character parrot was a capable person.
