There were quite a lot of condoms in Xiaomi's space. After all, when they were collecting supplies back then, they took everything in the supermarket, including the shelves.
But she couldn't take this thing out either. Not to mention whether his parents would be frightened, even if they weren't, they didn't know what a condom was for or how to use it.
That night, Xiaomi went to sleep with her worries. In her dream, she saw her father carrying two more children and telling her that they were her younger siblings. Xiaomi was so frightened that she woke up.
Fortunately, it was just a dream. It was simply terrifying.
However, it was already midnight when she woke up. Xiaomi skillfully and secretly fed her parents milk powder.
Milk powder mixed with spiritual spring water. This was double nutrition.
Perhaps it was their physical instincts, but they were already familiar with being fed every night. Even if Xiaomi accidentally made a little too much noise sometimes, they would not notice.
She could stretch her arms now. Her protective parents slept facing them. Xiaomi could stretch her arms and feed her parents milk powder.
After feeding them, Xiaomi cried out loud and woke up Bruiser. Then the siblings cried together.
After taking the milk powder, Xiaomi was placed on the other side of the bed between Erni and Dawa.
Erni woke up out of habit for a while. After Xiaomi came over, she continued to sleep. She even hugged Xiaomi and slept with her. Dawa did not wake up at all!
In the middle of the night, there were no oil lamps lit in the house, and there were no windows in the thatched cottage. There was only a little moonlight under the door, and the rest of the house was dark.
There was no need to worry if the others were asleep. Xiaomi fed Dawa milk powder. By the time he was full, Erni had fallen asleep again.
After feeding her brothers and sister with milk powder, Xiaomi sighed. Her father would be making small beds in a few days. At that time, her brothers and sister would live separately. How could she feed them with milk powder?
If she did not feed them more now, it would be even more inconvenient in the future. After all, this milk powder was rare in both taste and appearance. It would not be easy to trick them into eating it.
After thinking for a while, she felt sleepy. Xiaomi let herself fall asleep. Forget it. I'll think about it later.
When she woke up, the others had already woken up. Only Erni was guarding her younger siblings. Jiang Hu had already gone out. From today onwards, as long as there were still vegetables in the fields, he would send them to Tong Fu Restaurant!
Because he had to rush home to water the fields and did not want the villagers to know how many vegetables he was selling, Jiang Hu left before dawn and before he could eat.
"Mom, Xiaomi's awake." As soon as Xiaomi opened her eyes, Erni ran to the door and shouted out.
"Erni, play with your sister for a while. I'll be right over." Erniang's voice came from the kitchen.
Xiaomi cried out and smiled beautifully. Erni quickly came back. "Xiaomi, don't scream. Bruiser is still sleeping. He'll cry if you wake him up."
Xiaomi fell silent. She had forgotten about this.
Erniang and Dawa came over after a while. One of them carried Xiaomi and the other carried Bruiser. Bruiser woke up when Dawa picked him up, but he did not cry. He was probably not hungry yet.
"Daddy will be back soon. Let's eat later. When he comes back, we'll eat together."
Erniang led the children to the kitchen. The sun was out now and shining through the door. It was especially warm.
Before Xiaomi was placed on the small bed, she saw that there was vegetable porridge on the dining table and the pastries that Shopkeeper Liu had given them the day before. However, there were much fewer of them. They had probably eaten the rest the night before.
Xiaomi smacked her lips twice. She also had pastries in her space, but those pastries were industrially produced and had a lot of additives. They were definitely not as delicious as these natural handmade cakes.
Unfortunately, she was still too young to try them.
Erniang asked Dawa and Erni to keep an eye on the children and went to cut a few pickles. The porridge at home was no longer a simple fare. Now a bowl of porridge and a few pickles would last them the entire morning.
Xiaomi took the opportunity to feed Bruiser milk powder. There were two of them. They could not rely solely on their mother's milk. Besides, their mother's milk was not good. She did not even have eggs to eat.
She would save the nutritious food for her mother to nourish her body. She did not want her mother to be sucked dry by her and Bruiser.
After Bruiser was fed, Xiaomi fed herself till she burped. Just then Jiang Hu returned home. Erni was the first to see him and shouted that their father was back.
"Erni, be good. Come and eat. Daddy must be hungry too." Erniang touched the rice bowls one by one. They were still hot but not burning hot. They were just right.
Then she walked over to the kitchen door. Jiang Hu happened to enter the courtyard at this moment. Erniang smiled and said, "Hu, you're back. It's time to eat."
She was not in a hurry to ask how much he had earned. Anyway, every time Jiang Hu brought back money, he would show it to her before putting it in the savings jar.
"Didn't I tell you to eat first? Don't wait for me to eat together. Just leave some food for me." Jiang Hu placed his basket under the roof and took out a small cloth bag.
Erniang said, "I'm not very hungry anyway, and I didn't wait for a long while."
Dawa immediately said, "No, Mommy said that Daddy is tired because you work the hardest. We have to wait for Daddy to come back and eat together!"
Jiang Hu was touched, but he said, "Then Dawa and Erni can eat first if you're hungry in the future. Don't wait for Daddy. What if Daddy comes back very late?"
However, Dawa did not agree happily. Instead, he pursed his lips. "That won't do. Mommy is right. Daddy works the hardest for the family. We have to wait for Daddy to eat together."
Erni, who had been guarding the small bed, quickly nodded, indicating that her brother was right! Her brother was right!
Jiang Hu was very gratified and touched. Then he picked up a bundle. "I bought something for you today. Come and take a look."
He opened the bundle and took out a small cloth bag. He put it aside and opened an oil paper bag.
When Dawa and Erni saw the contents of the oil paper bag, they shouted excitedly, "Steamed buns, they smell so good. They're meat buns!"
Jiang Hu smiled and nodded. "That's right. It's meat buns. We each have one."
Then he looked at Erniang. "Erniang, give one each to Dawa and Erni. I haven't washed my hands."
Erniang was very surprised and even sniffed. The buns smelled so good. She had never eaten meat buns bought outside in her life.
Erniang took one bun for Dawa and Erni before putting the rest on the table. "Hu, save mine for the children for lunch. I won't eat it."
This was the first time the children had eaten meat buns. In addition, they had suffered a lot with them previously, especially Erni. She almost…
Because of this, Erniang cared a lot about the children. She wished she could give the children the best of everything she had.
