A surprised voice came from above. "Dear, my daughter is awake! She's awake! Look, she's looking at me. She's looking at me."
Second Fu slapped his thigh a few times in excitement.
The first person whom his daughter saw when she woke up was him!
His tone was filled with pride.
"Let me see."
Mdm Fu moved over to take a look.
"Let me see, too." Old Mrs Fu quickly came over to take a look as well.
One by one, they surrounded her and stared at her without moving, afraid that they would miss a second of looking at her.
"Daughter, I'm your father." Second Fu's voice was as light and soft as a feather.
"Daughter, I'm your mother." Mdm Fu's motherly love shone out of her eyes. Her gaze was as gentle as a stream.
She looked cute when she was asleep just now, but now that she was awake, she was even more adorable.
"Sweetie, I'm your grandma." Old Mrs Fu was so excited that her voice was trembling. "You're so good-looking. I'm afraid our doorstep will be trampled on in the future by your suitors.
Look at those big sparkling eyes! And those two little dimples that could charm a crowd… She's like a goddess from heaven."
Old Mrs Fu loved her very much.
She had never seen a more adorable child.
The only flower amongst the thorns in the Fu family, and the most beautiful and eye-catching of all.
"Yes, Mother, my daughter is indeed a goddess who descended from heaven."
Second Fu couldn't agree more.
"Of course. Our girl is the most beautiful."
The mother and son were extraordinarily confident.
Mdm Fu found it so amusing that she almost peed her pants laughing.
Must both mother and son be so exaggerated?
She looked down at her daughter and smiled widely.
Fu Xing'er looked at the unfamiliar faces in front of her. Each face showed no malice, and was instead filled with an expression of overwhelming love.
All their facial features reflected joy.
Fu Xing'er was stunned.
Wait, where is this place?!
She opened her mouth, but she couldn't say a word. All she managed was a few sounds.
Holy sh*t!
What kind of sound was that?!
She tried to move and discovered her little arms and legs.
What's going on?!
Those who were looking at her had a very different reaction.
"Ah, my daughter has spoken! She's so happy to see me that she's dancing with joy." Second Fu was so excited that it was as if he had chanced upon a treasure. "Daughter, you're calling for me, your father, right?"
Second Fu happily interpreted her sounds.
His daughter was too smart.
The first person she recognized when she woke up was him.
She was indeed his daughter.
Old Mrs Fu retorted, "No, she's calling me grandma."
"No, Mother, listen. She's calling Father." Second Fu argued stubbornly, as if he had just stated a fact.
"No, she's calling me grandma. Your old ears don't work anymore."
Second Fu had a question at the back of his mind: Which one of them was older in age?
Mdm Fu was caught between laughter and tears.
This pair of mother and son was too childish.
Fu Xing'er's head ached from the noise and she couldn't help but roll her eyes.
There must be something wrong with these two people.
How could they tell that she was calling for them? Even she could not make out what she was humming.
It even made them so happy.
A series of unfamiliar memories surged into her mind.
The first message: She had transmigrated and become a baby.
The second message: This family has had sons for generations. She was the only girl.
Without a doubt, she would definitely be extremely adored and loved in this family.
She had barely rejoiced for a moment, before she was forced to accept the third message—this family was so poor that the only things that they had left were their heads.
As for the father in front of her, he was old but potent. He had worked hard with this mother standing in front of her, and had managed to break his bad luck.
Fu Xing'er stared at her father. From his appearance, he looked like an honest person.
"Dear, look, my daughter is staring at me." Second Fu was overjoyed. "Daughter, you like daddy too, right?"
That must be it.
She was indeed his little precious darling.
"She's not staring at you. She's glaring at you and clearly despising you." Seeing Second Fu's smugness, Old Mrs Fu was extremely jealous.
She looked at her baby granddaughter with a slightly aggrieved gaze, as if she was begging her to pay some attention to her as well.
"I don't care. My daughter is looking at me."
He was overjoyed that his daughter seemed to take the most interest in him.
Second Fu would only buy into his own interpretation of his daughter's love now.
Fu Xing'er looked around and saw several holes on the roof.
It's still poverty.
Even if she was reborn, she still could not get rid of poverty.
She suddenly felt that she did not love living anymore.
She pouted and felt like crying.
"What's wrong, Sweetie?" Old Mrs Fu's sharp eyes could tell that something was wrong at once. "Quick, carry our Sweetie."
Mdm Fu carefully picked up the child and coaxed, "What's wrong, Daughter?"
It was quite strange to be held in such a position in someone's arms for the first time.
Immediately, the warmth enveloped her, giving her a sense of security.
Seeing the concerned faces in front of her, Fu Xing'er smiled with contentment.
This feels pretty good.
It didn't seem to matter anymore that she was poor.
"Ah, my daughter smiled. She smiled at me!" Second Fu was surprised and excited, as if he had been hit by gold.
It was a normal expression, but coming from his daughter, it was a cause for celebration.
She really smiled!
How smart!
"It's normal for a child to smile. Don't scare our daughter with your exaggerated reactions." Mdm Fu asked him to get a hold of himself.
"That's not the same. My daughter looks the most beautiful when she smiles."
"Yes, my Sweetie's smile is so charming."
A dimple appeared on each side of her cheeks. Her big eyes sparkled like gems.
This pair of mother and son were on the same page when it came to praising Fu Xing'er.
"Daughter, give me another smile."
Fu Xing'er yawned. Her eyelids were heavy.
Just one smile from her, and it made them so happy.
This family was really easy to please.
Fine. I'll smile again.
"Mother, look at how smart my daughter is. She understands what I'm saying." Second Fu was excited again.
His daughter was too smart.
She was unlike both Daxing and Erxing. When the two boys were just born, they were as unresponsive as wooden blocks. They were not adorable at all.
His daughter was still the best. As expected of his little darling.
"Sweetie! Grandma's little sweetheart! Tsk, tsk, tsk. I'm laughing so hard that my heart is pounding. It's throbbing with love." Old Mrs Fu grinned so hard that she almost couldn't close her jaw.
Mdm Fu burst out laughing.
Fu Xing'er smiled so hard that her face was almost cramping.
Did this family have to be so exaggerated?
She could vaguely foresee her future days of being adored.
She was so sleepy.
Her eyelids were so heavy.
She tried her best to keep her eyes open, but she could not resist the sleepiness and fell back asleep again.
"Daughter, wake up. Show daddy another smile. Just one more will do."
Seeing his daughter smile made his heart sing with happiness.
He wished he could wake her up and make her play with him for a while longer.
"Go away, go away. Daughter is sleepy and needs to sleep." Mdm Fu told him to not get in the way as she placed the child gently onto the bed.
Now that she had a precious daughter, she would prioritize her over her husband.
Second Fu refused to leave and just sat at the spot, watching his daughter.
Mdm Fu had no intention of leaving either. The mother and son were staring at her newborn like guardians.
"Mother, your health is only just getting better. Why don't you go back to your room and rest?"
Mdm Fu shot her husband a meaningful look. However, Second Fu's entire attention was on his daughter and did not take the hint.
"I'm not tired. I'm wide awake." Old Mrs Fu refused conclusively. "Second Daughter-in-law, go to sleep if you're tired."
It was really strange.
Just a while ago, she was still quite weak. However, after seeing her little sweetheart, she felt extremely energetic.
