Chen Afu gave two admiring clicks, holding Chen Dabao and planting him with two kisses, praising, "Oh, Dabao is pretty as he is, but in new clothes, your mother could hardly recognize you, looking as if you've walked right out of a painting, a handsome little boy. Ah, wait till you grow up, and who knows how many girls will be fond of you."
With a rosy and cheerful face, Dabao answered shyly, "Mother, praising me like this makes me feel embarrassed."
Chen Afu laughed, "When I praise you every day, you will no longer feel shy." Afterward, she tied up his hair in the skyrocket hairstyle.
Chen Dabao quickly got down from the bed, put on his grass shoes, and ran into the outer room. Just in time, Mrs. Wu and Alu had gotten up. Seeing Dabao in his new clothes, they both lavished praises upon him, which drove Dabao over the moon.
