Ren Xiaobao came over, he reached out to touch the flowers.
Zhou Honglin quickly said, “Xiaobao, don’t touch them, this is the bouquet that Yangyang gave to your uncle me.”
“Uncle, these flowers are so pretty, I want them too, pick one for me.”
Zhou Honglin couldn’t give up, he put the bouquet on his other side of his body, so that his little nephew couldn’t pick his flowers.
“Xiao Bao, if you pick the flowers, the bouquet won’t look good. Sister, wash a few apples for Hai Ling, Mr Lu and Yang Yang and the others.”
Zhou Hongying hmmm’d, she said to her youngest son, “Xiao Bao, you have to be sensible, that’s the bouquet that Yangyang bought for your uncle, it’s not a toy, you can’t pick the blossoms, go and wash your hands, mummy will wash the apples for you to eat.”
Hearing that there were apples to eat, Ren Xiaobao stopped clamouring for flowers.
He looked at Yangyang’s clothes, even touched and pulled them with his hands, and asked Yangyang, “Yangyang, is this the new clothes auntie bought for you? It’s so pretty oh, I want new clothes too.”
He turned his head and said to Hai Ling, “Auntie, I also want new clothes like the ones Yang Yang is wearing, so buy me a few sets.”
In the past, when Auntie bought things, it was always what Yangyang had, and he had it too.
If Auntie didn’t buy for him, Mum would scold Auntie and Grandma would follow and blame Auntie.
Later, when auntie bought new clothes for Yangyang, she would also buy two sets for him.
Xiaobao is young, only one year older than Yangyang, but with a mother like Zhou Hongying, he gradually developed his nature of taking advantage.
“Xiao Bao, call me auntie, I’m not your auntie anymore, you want to wear new clothes, let your mum buy them for you.”
Already not being someone’s aunt for a year, Hai Ling is not so much as to be calculating with a small child, but she won’t treat Xiaobao like she did before.
What Little Treasure wanted, he could ask his mum to buy it for him.
Hai Ling is unlikely to buy things for Xiao Bao again, Zhou Hong Ying is a vampire type, and now she is bent on setting up a remarriage between her and Zhou Hong Lin, which actually means she wants to lie on her back and suck blood again.
If Hai Ling still buys things for Yang Yang and also buys a share for Xiao Bao as she did before, then Zhou Hong Ying will find all the excuses to ask Hai Ling for favours through the child.
“I want you to buy it for me, my mum doesn’t have any money, you have money, you buy it for me, just buy the same clothes as what Yangyang is wearing.”
Ren Xiaobao played up his savage nature and insisted that Hai Ling buy him new clothes.
His dad’s face was ugly, and he seriously ordered his eldest son and daughter, “Take Xiaobao outside to play.”
Disgraceful.
Was there no clothes left for him to wear?
As soon as he saw Yang Yang wearing a better looking set of clothes, he was so bleary-eyed that he was clamouring for Hai Ling to buy him new clothes.
Little Treasure was soon carried out of the ward by his siblings in a hard carry.
Zhou Hongying washed the apples and came out, didn’t see the three children, and didn’t ask many questions, in fact, Xiao Bao’s words, she heard them when she was washing the apples inside.
She did not say anything.
Let her son make a fuss, but he is just a four year old child, what does he know?
Is it hard for Hai Ling to mess with a four year old?
Ren Xiaobao’s outburst, however, made the Zhou family look snappy.
“Hai Ling, Mr Lu, you guys sit down.”
Zhou Honglin invited the two to sit down, he was most embarrassed.
The fact that his little nephew would ask Hai Ling for new clothes was all spoilt by their family.
“I’m already seated.”
