During the New Year, all the other girls in the village received hair ornaments or red ribbons from their families, but my younger sister could only watch pitifully as others wore them.

One day, Shi Tou accidentally overheard other girls laughing at his younger sister, who was laughing foolishly. At that moment, Shi Tou wanted nothing more than to rush out and beat them up.

But reason told him, no!

But he kept this in mind, which is why he was so happy when his mother promised that he could spend his New Year's money as he pleased.

He thought that this time, he must buy a hair accessory for his sister, the prettiest one, even prettier than the ones worn by the girls in the village!

They waited and waited, and finally the peddler came to the village again. When Stone saw him from afar, he hurriedly ran home.

But now everything is over!

Stone thought to himself, "What a useless older brother he is!"

Tears silently slid down the boy's tender face, without disturbing the birds in the sky or telling the big tree by the wall; only the cold wind mixed with the desolation.

Blink hard to relieve the dryness, and Shi Tou slowly pulled himself out of his memories.

He thought that perhaps the tears that day weren't just because he couldn't buy the hair accessory, because later, when his mother found out, she still gritted her teeth and bought one for his younger sister.

And what about the unspoken grievances?

So, seeing the young master beside him, who had been tidied up and was being amused by his friends, Shi Tou murmured enviously, "Madam is so good to you!"

Unexpectedly, even though she spoke so softly, the young master still heard her. He immediately smiled even more broadly and subconsciously said, "Yes, Mother is the best!"

Then, scratching his head, he asked in confusion, "How did you know?"

He thought it was a secret! No one but his family should know!

Because he wanted to keep this a secret; his mother was so good, he couldn't let someone else take her away!

Stone didn't know how to tell the young master in front of him his secret feelings, so he could only smile and answer, "Because the way she looks at you is very, very gentle."

After thinking for a long time, Stone finally remembered this unfamiliar word.

Gentle?

The little boy didn't know what gentleness was; he only knew that he felt comfortable whenever his mother looked at him, because his mother's eyes always seemed to be smiling at him. So, he always smiled back at his mother, showing his clean little baby teeth.

However, although he didn't quite understand, he knew it must be a good word, and he understood what Stone Brother meant!

Therefore, it was obvious to everyone that his mother liked him very much, and thinking about this made him even happier!

That way, his mother won't abandon him, right?

He will definitely be more obedient, so that his mother will like him even more and stay by his side forever.

Yes, he will listen to his father and grandmother, and everyone should always stay together!

Ah! If only Father could come back.

Little Baozi sighed when he thought of this.

The adorable little dumpling, pretending to be mature for its age, attracted the attention of its friends.

"Young Master, why are you sighing?"

They couldn't understand why the young master, who lived such a good life, with fine clothes and sumptuous food, and had endless money to spend without having to work, had anything to worry about.

"I miss my father!"
