Tao Qi raised his little face and said proudly, “I will definitely be as outstanding as my brother and sister.”
The older sister that he referred to was definitely Tan Rou, but the older brother he was talking about was not Tao Zhi or Tao Zheng, but Zhuang Liu.
The three of them chatted and laughed as they walked towards the main residence. When Second Aunt Tao, who was watering the flowers in the garden, saw the three of them, she felt both envious and sad.
Not long ago, she also had a pair of children, but now she only had a son. Compared to boys, Second Aunt Tao preferred cute girls. When she adopted Tao Yue, she planned to treat Tao Yue as her own daughter. After so many years, she thought that she had fulfilled her responsibility as a mother, but she raised a vicious daughter.
“Good afternoon, Second Aunt!” Tan Rou smiled and greeted Second Aunt Tao. “Let me help you water the flowers!”
Second Aunt Tao’s heart warmed. She smiled and said, “It’s okay. It’s so hot outside. You should go back and rest. They had prepared iced watermelons at home. They were very sweet.”
Although it was already past five o’clock, it was still warm.
Tao Zhi said, “Second Aunt, you should go back and rest too. Xiao Qi and 1 will help you finish watering the remaining flowers.”
Second Aunt Tao was also in the mood to water the flowers. She just wanted to find something to do so that she wouldn’t think of that person when she sat there.
“How can 1 let you children water it? I can do it myself,” Second Aunt Tao said with a smile.
Tao Zhi and Tan Rou looked at each other and immediately made a decision.
“Let us accompany you.” the siblings said in unison.
The sensible Tao Qi said, “I’ll bring the watermelon over.”
When Second Aunt Tao saw these children, she felt a lump in her throat.
“You’re all good children.”
With these good children by her side, there was no need for her to think about that heartless adopted daughter. In the future, she would raise Tan Rou as her own daughter.
They watered the flowers, washed their hands, and then went to the table to eat iced watermelons.
Second Aunt Tao liked to chat with the children. She first asked the youngest Tao Qi, “Xiao Qi, do you like living in the Capital?”
Tao Qi took a bite of the watermelon and said, “I can live anywhere, as long as I can be with my parents, brothers, and sisters.”
After saying that, he added, “Of course, living with Second Aunt is also the best. You would always cook delicious food for me.”
Tao Zhi knocked Tao Qi’s head and said fiercely, “Don’t tell me you like her just because she cooks nice food for you?”
“Of course not!” Tao Qi swallowed the watermelon in his mouth and said solemnly, “I like Second Uncle and Second Aunt very much. I also like Grandpa and Grandma. That’s why I want to live with you.”
“Little Qi, you have such a sweet mouth.” Second Aunt Tao rewarded Tao Qi with a watermelon core. “You’re too cute. If only my son could be as cute as you.”
“Second Aunt, Little Brother Sheng is already so big. How can he be cute?” Tao Zhi said.
Second Aunt Tao said regretfully, “Xiao Sheng has never been cute since he was young. He doesn’t like to talk to others either. He always has a sour face. Those who don’t know better will think that others owe him a lot of money.”
Tao Zhi spoke up for Tao Sheng. “Actually, Little Sheng just doesn’t know how to express himself. When we played together in the past, he always wanted to find a topic to ease the awkwardness. However, he always said the wrong thing and made the atmosphere even more awkward.”
Second Aunt Tao laughed out loud. “Now that you mention it, I remember. I don’t know where that kid heard that he would tell jokes to get others to play with him. Then, he collected a lot of jokes and brought them back. In the end, he didn’t tell any funny jokes at all. His father and 1 were dumbfounded.”
Tan Rou didn’t know much about her cousin, and they rarely met each other. Therefore, she listened from the side and tried to understand him from other people’s words.
Tao Zhi brought up the topic, and Second Aunt Tao seemed to have opened up a chatterbox. She kept talking about interesting things about Tao Sheng when he was young. Since Tao Zhi also lived in the capital when he was young, she knew a lot of interesting things about Tao Zhi when he was young.
Tan Rou listened with great interest. She did not have the concept of childhood, so she cherished other people’s childhood stories even more.
Second Aunt Tao was so engrossed in her story that she didn’t notice the others who were quietly approaching her.
Grandma Tao and Aunt Tao walked over hand in hand. They didn’t make a sound and just listened to Second Aunt Tao talk about Tao Zhi and Tao Sheng’s childhood.
Perhaps Second Aunt Tao had not gotten over the influence of Tao Yue, but it did not matter. With so many children accompanying her, she would get over it sooner or later..
