Chapter 323: A Daughter Is Good

Yeah, I’ll do it now,
Xia Ruoxin turned around but couldn’t help smiling. The expression of the adult and the child were too similar, making one want to laugh.
She walked into the kitchen. Everything inside was tidy and clean. She opened the fridge, which was also filled with food. She suddenly had a feeling like she was tricked.
She looked around and realized that everything in the kitchen was mostly new and unused.
She leaned against the wall to rest for a while. No matter what—since she had decided to stay, she would take good care of this place and them.
She took out a few vegetables from the fridge and skillfully washed and cut them. The sound of cooking from the kitchen was extremely pleasant.


Gao Yi closed his eyes, the corners of his lips lifting. So this was the feeling of home. He finally understood why all these years—no matter where he was staying, he did not feel much for it. It was only a place for him to sleep. It was missing a sound like this, a feeling like this.

Does Rainy like this place?
He lowered his head and asked Rainy who was still looking around with a curious pair of eyes.

Yes.
Rainy nodded vigorously. This place was huge and pretty. She really liked it.

Then, Rainy will live here together with Mommy, okay? This is Rainy’s house from now on.
Gao Yi bent down and said to the little lady seriously.
Rainy hugged the dolly in her hands tightly and thought for a second and then said,
Okay.
The tender voice was pleasant to the ears and was very cute. Rainy then lowered her head as if she just thought of something.

Uncle, help Rainy hold Dolly.
She left the doll in Gao Yi’s arms and ran towards the kitchen with big strides.
Gao Yi held the doll and stood up, too.
Rainy ran inside and hugged Xia Ruoxin’s legs. She rubbed her cheeks against her legs, and there was a naive smile on her face.

Mommy, Rainy will help.

Xia Ruoxin smiled and rubbed her daughter’s bald head with her free hand. She took out a few vegetables and placed it on the floor.


Rainy squatted down sensibly and began plucking the vegetables skillfully. It was evident that this was not the first time she had done this.
Gao Yi looked at the scene in front of him and sighed softly, his heart filled with heartache. She was so young, but she already knew how to help her mother with chores. This child must have suffered a lot.
Gao Yi bent down and placed a hand on Rainy’s cheeks.
Rainy is really capable. Tell Uncle what else you can do.
He always thought that the child was just naturally obedient, but she was obedient beyond his imagination.

Rainy can help Mommy take the clothes in, help Mommy wash clothes, pluck the vegetables, and cook noodles. Rainy is very capable.
As she spoke, her eyes curved into a smile. It was extremely cute.
Yes, she was capable, but it made people feel sorry for her.
Xia Ruoxin stopped mid-action. She blinked, her eyes misty with tears. Her daughter had started helping with chores when she was very young. She could already help her with a lot of things with her small body. Xia Ruoxin was the one supporting the family, but Rainy was the one supporting her.

Rainy is a really good kid.
Gao Yi rubbed her head again and stood up, the smile on his face becoming gentler.
…
A pair of unsteady feet walked on the streets. They belonged to a beautiful girl wearing a pretty hat on her head that covered half her face. Only her ruddy cheeks could be seen, as well as her bright blinking eyes and raven black pupils. Her long eyelashes were slightly curved, and it fluttered from time to time while her rosy lips were curved upwards. She must have been happy.
Her arms held a doll and onto a tall and handsome man with her other hand.



Do you want to eat something? Uncle will buy some for you.
Gao Yi placed a hand on Rainy’s face. Her face was red from walking.

Yes. Rainy wants to eat a lollipop.
Her soft and sweet voice melted Gao Yi’s heart.

Okay. Uncle’s getting you some lollipop, but just one. If not, you’ll have a cavity.


Okay.
Rainy nodded vigorously. Gao Yi continued to hold her hand and walked in a shop.
Rainy hid behind his back, thinking there were so many people. The tiny her was about to drown in a sea of people. Gao Yi took a lollipop and walked towards the counter, his large hand holding onto her tiny hand firmly for fear of losing her.
He took out his wallet with one hand. Rainy clung onto him obediently. Her mother told her to hold tightly onto the adults. Otherwise, she would be captured by the bad guys who would eat her up.
At this moment, two figures walked towards them with their hands full of things.

Auntie, you don’t have to buy so much, do you? Sister-in-law eats so many tonics every day. Any more, and she’ll develop some problems or turn into a pig.
Du Jingtang did not approve of the heap of tonics and supplements in his aunt’s hands. It would take a long time to finish the load she bought all at once.

Is that the way to talk?
Song Wan fanned her head with one hand.
What ‘pig’?

Du Jingtang rubbed his head and sighed. What he said was true so why didn’t anyone believe him?



Also, how would she develop problems?
Song Wan shook her head and said to herself,
Manni is not on her own now. She carries the Chu family’s future baby in her stomach. Her nutrition must, of course, be tip-top. Otherwise, my poor grandson would be starved. Our whole family will be sad.

Du Jingtang rolled his eyes. It was just a few months. Starving was an exaggeration.

Auntie, how do you know if it’s a grandson? It could be a granddaughter?
Du Jingtang pursed his lips. He liked girls, for they were cute. His family was all male. His cousin was an only son, and so was he. Their family lacked girls.
His father was always complaining about his mother, saying that she was incapable of giving him a little princess. His mother fought every day in front of him, lamenting for being inconsiderate and not being a girl.

A girl is good, too. I like girls, too.
Song Wan did not value males over females. As long as they were her grandchildren, they were close to her heart—no matter if they were male or female.
