The darling of the group: Koi Soft Baby is five and a half years old

The little soft baby rolled his eyes and spoke in a sweet voice: "Grandpa is handsome~Grandpa is wise and powerful, and... he is... dignified... proud... hold your head high..."

Little Soft was a little nervous and used almost all the words he had learned just to flatter his grandfather.

Qiao Yuanzheng followed up: "Ambitious?"

Sheng Yuan also followed up: "Aspirations to go a thousand miles?"

Old Master Qiao's face was filled with black lines: "You little kid, you're teasing your grandfather. Go away!"

Several children felt wronged and said aggrievedly: "We were just following what Softbao said."

But Mr. Qiao didn't listen at all. He just carried the little baby to the sofa and turned on cartoons for her.

Maybe it’s because he’s already in kindergarten, Little Soft is not very keen on cartoons anymore.

After watching for a while, I went to play with Lego blocks.

This is a toy she has fallen in love with recently. Although she doesn’t recognize the words on the drawing, she recognizes the picture and can slowly piece it together.

Therefore, the real antiques originally displayed in the villa manor have become Lego building blocks, which are assembled by the little soft baby when he is free.

Everyone is willing to cultivate Xiaoruanbao's hands-on ability, so when Xiaoruanbao finishes one puzzle, someone will "place" an order with Xiaoruanbao.

Little Soft also enjoys it.

But tomorrow is the next week, and Xiaoruanbao, Sheng Qing, Xu Sheng Yuan and others will go to the Sheng family's old house.

At night, Xiao Ruanbao had already fallen asleep in bed. She kicked the quilt away: "Well... I want to eat chicken legs..."

Sheng Qingxu opened his eyes drowsily and reached out to cover the little boy with the quilt.

Suddenly, a breeze blew in the room and a black figure landed at the head of the bed.

The figure was tall and straight. He gently stroked the little soft baby's face and said, "I'm sorry, please wait for Dad for a while. After it's over, we can be reunited as a family."

"I'm sorry. My country is more important than my family. Sigh..."

The countless remaining words all turned into that one sigh.

……

The next morning, when we sent the children to the Sheng family, Mr. Qiao was also there.

When they arrived at the Sheng family, the two old men started quarreling as soon as they met.

Just as they got off the car, Mr. Sheng, who had been nervously pacing back and forth at the door, saw that the first person to get off the car was Mr. Qiao, and he started immediately.

He said unhappily, "What are you doing here?"

Old Master Qiao snorted two streams of air from his nose: "If I don't come to check, what if you abuse our little soft baby?"

"Me? Hahaha! Are you kidding me? I treated the little softie like my eyeballs and abused her! You won't abuse my granddaughter, will you?"

Mr. Qiao rolled up his sleeves: "What? How could I…"

Before the battle between the two escalated, Sheng Qingxu quickly picked up Xiaoruanbao and went upstairs.

Little Soft looked at her sister's fast pace in confusion: "Sister, why are we walking so fast?"

Sheng Qingxu shook his head helplessly: "Avoid the innocent people from being harmed."

Little Soft nodded, not quite understanding: "Oh, okay~"

"Come on, sister will take you to visit your room." Sheng Qingxu pinched the little soft baby's face.

Little Soft nodded: "Go and see!"

But when he entered the room, Little Soft asked, "Can't Soft sleep with his sister today?"

Sheng Qingxu hesitated for a moment, then shook her head, her tone softening: "Well, this room was carefully decorated by grandpa and grandma. If Ruanbao doesn't sleep for a day..."

Sheng Qingxu deliberately left the rest of the sentence blank, and little Ruanbao raised his hand to answer: "Grandpa and grandma will be sad!" After that, he clenched his fist and said: "Ruanbao is not allowed to make grandpa and grandma sad!"

Sheng Qingxu nodded: "Well, our Soft Baby is awesome."

Little Soft wrinkled his nose happily: "So, sister, sleep in my room with me!"

Sheng Qingxu: “…”

Probably because he had just had an argument with Mr. Qiao, Mr. Sheng came up with a smile on his face and his hands behind his back.

Seeing Xiao Ruanbao and Sheng Qingxu looking at the room, he asked, "How is it? Are you satisfied? If not, I will ask a designer to design for our Ruanbao, okay?"

Little Soft looked at the design and decoration that were exactly the same as his own at Qiao's house and shook his head: "Thank you, Grandpa. Soft is used to it."

Grandpa Sheng nodded in satisfaction, "That's good. There's not much sunshine this morning. Why don't the three of us go to the lake behind to row a boat? We can also pick lotus pods. They're fresh, tender, and sweet."

When Mr. Sheng mentioned the word "lake", he glanced at Sheng Qingxu guiltily.

However, Sheng Qingxu did not have any extra expression and remained calm.

Only then did Mr. Sheng breathe a sigh of relief.

Little Soft's eyes had already lit up, and he was jumping up and down happily: "Row a boat! Pick lotus pods!"

Sheng Qingxu had no objection, so Old Man Sheng happily went to ask people to make arrangements.

However, Mr. Sheng was old and in poor health, so he did not go with them.

The boat was swaying, and Grandpa Sheng trusted his eldest granddaughter, so he felt very comfortable letting the two little ones ride on the same boat.

But he was not without worry, so he asked professionals to row another small boat to follow the two people.

Rescuers were deployed in the water, and professional bodyguards were stationed around the pond.

Therefore, the two little guys are very safe, and Grandpa Sheng is also very confident about the two little guys.

As soon as Xiaoruanbao entered the backyard, he was attracted by the view of the pond. The lotus leaves in the pond were endless green, dotted with beautiful tender pink flowers.

Although she grew up in the countryside until she was five years old, it was not popular to grow lotus roots in Shenjia Village; most of the crops were rice.

In autumn, the wheat fields are beautiful when the wind blows. But after watching for a long time, Xiaoruanbao is more interested in the lotus pond now.

She pointed her cute little chubby fingers at the tender green lotus pods and said, "Sister~Sister, can I eat this?"

Sheng Qingxu nodded: "Yeah."

Little Soft jumped onto the boat fearlessly: "Sister! Let's go!"

"Be careful!" Sheng Qingxu quickly grabbed little Ruanbao's arm.

The boat was still on land, so Grandpa Sheng was not worried about his granddaughter falling into the water, but he still followed Sheng Qingxu and shouted, "Be careful!"

Little Soft waved to his grandfather: "Grandpa! My sister and I are going to play! You have to stay here and watch over us!"

Mr. Sheng nodded: "Okay, okay." Then he winked at the bodyguard behind him and asked him to push the two young ladies' boat into the water.

Sheng Qingxu just urgently reviewed how to row a boat to avoid sending himself and Xiaoruanbao directly into the water.

This lotus pond has little practical value. It is basically a place used by Mr. Sheng for viewing, so it is not lush.

It was very easy to row a boat through the lotus leaves, and I wasn't afraid at first. But when I got into the water, Xiao Ruanbao became visibly nervous.

She stretched out her hand to pick the lotus pod, but her arm was too short. But while she was worried, her sister had already moved the cot to the side.

In this way, Xiao Ruanbao successfully picked the first lotus pod. She smiled and turned back to Sheng Qingxu and said, "Sister, look!"

They were not far from the shore, so Xiao Ruanbao waved to his grandfather on the shore again: "Grandpa! Look!"

Mr. Sheng nodded to Xiao Ruanbao and gave him a thumbs up.

The little soft baby showed a sweet smile.

Sheng Qingxu rowed the boat while Xiaoruanbao picked lotus pods. The two of them cooperated very well.

Soon, a small pile of lotus pods appeared on their boat.

Little Softbao was very hospitable and took two and handed them to the two uncles on the boat behind him: "Here, uncles, have some too."

The little soft baby smiled sweetly, and the two bodyguards behind him were flattered: "Can... can I?"

"It's OK!" said Little Soft.

Sheng Qingxu also nodded.

Only then did they both accept it with peace of mind.

Then Xiao Ruanbao took two more lotus pods and handed them to the uncles in the water: "Here! The uncles in the water have some too!"

The two people who were diving in the water floated up: "Ah? We... have it too?"

Little Soft nodded: "Yeah! Let's eat together!"

Sheng Qingxu smiled a little, then sighed: "It turns out that my sister is no longer Plan A in Ruanbao's heart."

Little Soft didn’t understand and asked in confusion: “What is Pulai A?” But she also felt from her sister’s tone that her sister didn’t seem very happy?

"That's right, Ruanbao doesn't like his sister the most. He didn't even give it to his sister first." Sheng Qingxu continued.

Little Softie blinked her eyes. Oh! She knew. Her sister was jealous!

After she thought of this, she immediately acted like her sister's good boy, ran over to hug her sister and acted like a spoiled child: "Sister! I love you the most, please don't be unhappy! I only give a little to others. But I will give you everything, okay?"

As Little Soft said this, he pushed all the lotus pods to his sister.

Sheng Qingxu was very happy in her heart, but her face was not. She sighed: "Really? Then what about your grandfather? What about your brothers?"

Little Ruanbao was in a dilemma, but now that she had made her sister angry, she had to appease her sister first, so she said firmly: "Give it all to my sister, and no one else!"

Sheng Qingxu was moved by this firm choice and stroked Little Soft's hair: "Okay, Sister can't eat that much, let's go back and share it."

"Really?" Xiaoruanbao swallowed her saliva. She had wanted to have a bite for a long time.

But there is no time yet, I'm busy picking lotus pods.

Sheng Qingxu nodded: "Did my sister lie to you?"

Little Soft Baby shook his head, then happily took the whole lotus pod to his mouth at a speed that Sheng Qingxu couldn't stop him in time, and took a big bite.

Little Soft's face turned from pink to green, then to blue, and then to purple.

Sheng Qingxu's expression was blank for a second, and then he pinched the little soft baby's cheek: "Hurry up, hurry up. Spit it out! It's very bitter!"

Little Soft's face wrinkled with bitterness, and he spat out lotus pods bit by bit: "Pooh! Pooh! Pooh! Grandpa lied, it's not delicious at all!"

Sheng Qingxu sighed helplessly: "Little fool, this is not how you eat it."

Little Softblinked his eyes: "How do you eat it?"

Sheng Qingxu's thin and long fingers flew, and she quickly peeled two plump white lotus seeds: "Here, that's it, try it?"

The little soft baby "woooo" took the small lotus seeds from his sister's hand into his mouth and began to chew.

Then his eyes gradually began to light up: "Delicious! Sister, this is super delicious!"

The lotus seeds are not yet mature, and are very sweet and tender. Little Soft Baby keeps eating them one by one.

Sheng Qingxu couldn't keep up with the speed of peeling by hand.

Xiaoruanbao also came over to help peel the skin, but she was not very good at it. The first one she peeled was not as white and plump as the one Sheng Qingxu peeled. Instead, it had a strange shape, and it was obvious that a lot of flesh had been pinched off.

Little Soft Baby didn't find anything strange and excitedly wanted to give the fruit he had just peeled to his sister.

Sheng Qingxu didn't dislike it at all. She ate the food without changing her expression, and praised it casually, "It's sweet."

In this way, the two of them had a lot of fun playing on the lake, picking lotus pods and peeling them, and then lying in the boat to rest, looking at the blue sky and white clouds.

Little Soft closed his eyes, sighed softly, and said softly: "It would be nice if mom and dad were here."

After Sheng Qingxu heard this, her hands that were peeling the lotus pods paused, then she lowered her eyes, pursed her lips, and did not move for a long time.

Little Soft Baby probably sensed his sister's mood, so he turned over and lay on the boat, raised his little feet, and asked, "What's wrong with sister? Why are you unhappy?"

Sheng Qingxu shook his head, then stopped what he was doing and asked Xiao Ruanbao: "Ruanbao, what do you think of Grandpa Qiao?"

Little Soft is confused: "Grandpa is very good to Soft. Why is Grandpa not good to Sister Xu? Then Soft will take Sister to Grandpa Bear!"

The little softies shared a common hatred for the enemy and pouted angrily.

Sheng Qingxu was amused by the little soft baby, and then shook her head, "That's not what I'm talking about. Grandpa Qiao is not mean to my sister. Grandpa Qiao used to be a hero in the war of resistance against Japanese aggression. Did you know that, soft baby?"

Little Soft nodded: "Yeah, grandpa is great too!"

Sheng Qingxu nodded, "What if... Grandpa can only choose between protecting Ruanbao and protecting everyone, and Grandpa chooses everyone. Will Ruanbao be sad?"

Although Sheng Qingxu's words were rather obscure, Little Soft was very thoughtful and asked in confusion, "Why are you asking this, sister? Grandpa protects us all, he's a great hero, and Soft will protect himself!"

Sheng Qingxu also knew that he couldn't ask anything like this, so he shook his head and said, "Nothing."

She just... didn't want to make little Softie sad.

Sighing, Sheng Qingxu continued to help Xiaoruanbao peel lotus pods.
