Chapter 17: Little Brother

If they were to really give Doudou away, they were indeed reluctant to do so.

"Yun 'er… alright then. Mother won't make things difficult for you. Mother will go back and have a good talk with your Grandmother." Liang Jinqiao thought about it and decided to let it go. She didn't agree with giving Doudou away from the start. If it wasn't for Huo Chunhua making a big fuss, she wouldn't have come this time.

"Mother, don't go back and tell Grandmother. She'll definitely scold you for this" Zhao Ping 'er said noisily. She glared at Zhao Yun 'er with dissatisfaction. "You selfish brat. You only think about yourself and this little bastard. You don't even care about Father and Mother."

When Zhao Yun 'er heard Zhao Ping 'er call Doudou a "little bastard", her eyes shot out a cold light. If her parents weren't here, she really wanted to give her a few slaps.

"Alright, Ping 'er, it seems you can't stop talking. Let's just go back." Liang Jinqiao reprimanded Zhao Ping 'er.

Zhao Ping 'er was unwilling, but she still obediently shut her mouth.

"Yun 'er, your Father and Mother will go back. Take care of yourself. If there's anything, just call Father and Mother!" Liang Jinqiao finally said and then left.

Zhao Yun 'er turned around and saw that Doudou was a little disappointed.

It was difficult for children to hide their emotions. Whether it was sadness or happiness, it was always written on their faces.

Zhao Yun 'er squatted down and hugged Doudou. "Doudou is unhappy?"

"Mother… Doudou really won't leave Mother?"

"Of course. No matter who it is, don't even think about being separated from Mother."

"But Grandmother, Grandfather, and all the others all want to give Doudou away…"

"Mother doesn't agree, so they can't give you up to anyone. Don't worry, Doudou, Mother will protect you."

"Thanks Mother!" The worry on her Little Bun's face finally dissipated a little.

In the afternoon, Zhao Yun 'er tidied up the house and cleaned it inside and out.

The places that could be repaired by themselves were repaired with hammers and nails. In her previous life, she was an expert in fixing all kinds of things in the office. She didn't expect that she would be of use here.

However, there was nothing she could do about the holes in the walls and the roof.

She couldn't live in this house for long. The best way was to save enough money and build a new house as soon as possible.

There were a few broken jars in the house. Zhao Yun 'er took them out and washed them with the water in the water tank. When they went up the mountain the next day, they would fill it with honey.

Doudou was also helping by the side, his little hands helping to wash some small things from time to time. Although he was busy, Doudou seemed to be very happy. He completely treated it as if he was playing with Zhao Yun 'er.

After cleaning for an entire afternoon, the water in the water tank was about to reach the bottom of their feet.

Zhao Yun'er said to Doudou, "Doudou, why don't you stay at home by yourself for a while? Mother will go get some water."

"Mother, Doudou will go with you."

"It's dangerous by the river. Doudou can stand by the river later. Please stand a little further away?"

"Okay, Doudou will listen to mother."

"Okay."

Just as Zhao Yun'er was about to leave, she saw a sixteen or seventeen year old boy walking towards her house. The boy had delicate features and was almost 1.8 meters tall. However, he was too thin. In this era, children didn't eat well when they were growing.

The person who came was none other than Zhao Yunc'er's younger brother, Zhao Tianan.

"Second Sister." Zhao Tianan called Zhao Yun 'er.
