In the night breeze, Zhui Feng and Wang Cai were still excited, barking and running in front of the carriage, while the two parrots had already fallen asleep in the grass basket Dabao was carrying.
With the rocking carriage, it didn't take long for the Yang siblings to fall asleep. At home, they would've been asleep by now. Chen Afu and Mrs. Huang each held one of them, wrapped in a small quilt.
Although Dabao was a bit sleepy, he didn't let his mother hold him and continued to take care of the sleeping parrots, covering them with a cloth.
Children of poor families tend to take on responsibilities early. Chen Afu looked at Yang Chao in her arms, then at Dabao, her heart ached a little. She whispered apologetically, "Chao is our guest."
Dabao rubbed his head against Chen Afu's arm and said, "Hmm, I know. I won't be jealous of Chao."
Mrs. Huang whispered, "Dabao is such a good boy."
As soon as they arrived home, Alu greeted them.
