Chapter 49

Yun Yi stayed at home for seven or eight days before leaving. By that time, the hottest days had already passed, but the rainy season would still last for a few more days.

Yun Xiaolu and the twins went to their familiar place in the back mountain and picked a lot of wild peaches to bring for Yun Yi. They had been observing this wild peach tree for several years, so the taste was guaranteed. The sweet and sour flavor was just right for Yun Yi's current taste.

"I won't be able to come home conveniently for a while. You all have to behave at home, be good, and wait until your little nephew is born. I'll take you to the county to play," Yun Yi made a bunch of promises before leaving. The younger ones also obediently promised not to cause trouble or misbehave at home, but whether they could consistently keep their promises was uncertain.

Xiao Dou and Xiao E have been growing rapidly lately. Their clothes become too short every two months. Especially when Xiao Dou stands in front of Yun Yi, they are almost the same height. Hearing these instructions that were intended for children, they felt a bit embarrassed and just wanted to deceive everyone and leave quickly.

After seeing off Yun Yi, Yun Xiaolu noticed that Xiao Dou's shoe tips were tight. "Xiao Dou, are your shoes squeezing your toes again?"

Xiao Dou hadn't noticed before, but as soon as Yun Xiaolu mentioned it, he immediately felt that the shoes were squeezing uncomfortably.

"Mom, buy me a new pair of rubber shoes, please." With the improvement in the family's financial situation, Xiao Dou's materialistic desires have also increased.

Zhao Yueji gave her younger son a glance but didn't refuse outright. Mainly because she didn't have the time to make shoes every day now. With the twins growing so fast, it was a strain on the shoes. If they didn't have the means, they would have to make do. But now that they clearly had the means, she didn't plan on making her children suffer.

In the end, when Yun Shuang returned home, the whole family got a new pair of rubber shoes each. Yun Xiaolu looked at her own shoes, which hadn't changed in size much, and couldn't help but feel envious and jealous of the twins' rapid growth.

"Why am I growing so slowly?" She had been competing with Xiao Dou seriously during meals. How come she was still growing so slowly?

Xu Nianyun thought about Yun Xiaolu's age and comforted her, saying, "It's also time for you to grow."

Hmm, indeed, it was time. In another mealtime competition with Xiao Dou, Yun Xiaolu successfully lost a baby tooth, officially announcing that she was also experiencing significant changes in her growth!

After that, Yun Xiaolu noticeably became less talkative, and she started having more conversations with Xu Nianyun.

"If you really have nothing to do, you can practice writing," Xu Nianyun suggested. She thought that losing a baby tooth was a situation where a little girl might become self-conscious and not talk, but Yun Xiaolu shouldn't bother the system every day!

Yun Xiaolu didn't feel like practicing writing. Lately, she wasn't enthusiastic about watching cartoons either. Instead, she would stare at her classmates every day, wondering who had lost a tooth. She then noticed that most of her third-grade classmates were two or three years older than her, and they mentioned that they had lost their front teeth and were now losing their other teeth.

So, it seemed that she was the only one who looked ugly!

"How about we watch an episode about kids losing teeth today?" Xu Nianyun thought it was necessary to spread some oral hygiene knowledge.
