Wen You followed the housekeeper for a few minutes, and just then, she bumped into Qingqing, who had run out to meet her.
Upon seeing the two little girls holding hands, the butler revealed a worthless smile.
He smiled and led them into the room: "It's cold outside, you can play here, I'll bring in some fruit and snacks."
After the housekeeper left, Xiao Wenyou's attitude was no longer as reserved as before.
Having not seen each other for a long time, the two reminisced for quite a while, as if they had endless things to say.
Qingqing told her about her trip and then asked her about it.
"Sister Wenyou, why didn't you tell me you were coming to the capital?"
After waiting quietly for her to finish speaking, Wen You replied, "I only found out this morning. Dad said he would bring me to Beijing to visit Grandpa Lan, and we're going back this afternoon."
Hearing that she would be going back soon, Qingqing felt a little disappointed.
"Wow, that was fast!"
"It's alright, it's alright, I'll come again after the New Year."
Wen You comforted her warmly, then changed the subject to something happier.
"Qingqing, did you receive a red envelope yesterday?"
The little girl, her conversation diverted, smiled and said, "I received it!"
Wen You touched the one in her pocket and took it out to show Qingqing.
"I just got these from Grandpa Lan's house. I have thirty now."
The Lan family gave her a lot; every elder gave her something, but she couldn't keep it all, so she handed it all over to her father for safekeeping.
The last one was given to her by her aunt when she left.
It's a very exquisite big red envelope, thick inside, looking like it's filled with a lot.
She didn't open it, but Xiao Qingqing stared at it for a while and said, "Wow, so many!"
Wen You put the red envelope in another pocket, then looked up and asked her, "What about you, Qingqing? How many did you receive?"
A number popped into the little girl's mind, and she read it aloud with a hint of envy: "I only have twenty-one."
Moreover, most of her red envelopes are very thin, unlike Wenyou's, which looks like they contain a lot of money.
Xiao Wenyou quickly did the math in his head: "Twenty-one is a lot."
As for Qingqing mentioning the small amount of red envelopes, Wenyou explained it to her.
"The thin one has bank cards inside, so it can hold more money."
"really?"
"Really!" Wen You asked, looking at her. "Didn't you open it to check?"
The little girl honestly shook her head: "No."
She wasn't that curious and didn't really understand money, so she gave it all to Xiao Qingdai as soon as she got it back.
Thinking back now, Mom did indeed take a lot of cards out of the red envelope yesterday.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wenyou immediately affirmed, "You definitely have more money than me. I only received six bank cards this year."
This was Qingqing's first time receiving a red envelope for the Chinese New Year, and compared to Wenyou, she was completely unaware of it.
Next, Xiao Wenyou told her about his plan.
Like Qingqing, most of her money was kept by her mother and managed by adults, with only a small portion going into her bank account.
Xiao Wenyou happily showed Qingqing her watch, which could be used for payment.
"After school starts, we can use it to buy a lot of things and pay for them ourselves without having an adult with us."
She enjoyed the scene of taking Qingqing out shopping and felt a great sense of accomplishment. She was so excited that she couldn't wait to take Qingqing out to buy things right now.
Xiao Qingqing was Wen You's most ardent fangirl. Upon hearing this, her eyes lit up, and she immediately leaned softly against him with an expression of adoration.
"Wow, Sister Wenyou, you're amazing!"
"whee."
The housekeeper brought in a lot of snacks and fruits. Hearing their conversation, he smiled with narrowed eyes, didn't disturb them, and quietly withdrew.
After a while, Qingqing took Wenyou to play in the yard, and the two of them woke up the little fox who was sleeping.
The fat fox opened its eyes and looked around. When it realized that the people who came were these two little rascals, it had no intention of resisting at all. It lay on the blanket like a salted fish, letting the four little hands touch its body.
"It's so lazy," Wen You said.
Qingqing nodded in agreement: "Yes, it sleeps every day."
Wen You has a dog at home and has some experience in raising pets, so he enthusiastically offered Qingqing some advice.
"Don't let it sleep all day; take it out for walks often so it can get some exercise."
Then, she told Qingqing about how her family walked their dog every day.
Xiao Qingqing once again expressed her admiration for Wen You and chose to listen to her advice without hesitation.
"Sister Wenyou knows everything, she's really amazing."
Wen You smiled happily, stood up, and searched for the rope in the room with Qing Qing.
They took the rope they used to tie the curtains and put it around the fox's neck.
While tying the knot, Xiao Wenyou said confidently, "My mom does it like this when she walks the dog."
After tying it up, the two of them held onto the rope, wanting to take the little fox out.
But this obese creature has now been spoiled; it merely glanced at them lazily and then stopped moving.
Feeling uncomfortable with the rope around my neck, I changed my position and lay face down.
"Go away, why won't it go?"
Wen You handed the rope to Qingqing, then walked over to the fox, picked it up, and straightened it.
She had Qingqing pull in front while she pushed its rear end from behind.
"Come on, we're taking you for your own good. You're getting so fat."
Fat Fox: "..."
That kid has a really sharp tongue.
For the sake of its own organization, it had no choice but to follow Qingqing and Wenyou and be led around.
Xiao Xubai, who was passing by, saw them and thoughtfully found them a dog leash to put on them.
This fox is chubby and already looks a lot like a Samoyed, but now that it's on a leash, it looks even more like one.
It followed the two little girls listlessly until noon when it finally got a rest.
On the way back to the room, Xiao Wenyou told Qingqing, "From now on, you have to take it out for a walk every day. If you don't have time, ask your nanny to come."
"I know~"
The little fox, with the intelligence of a child, could understand these words and was alarmed.
It tried to resist, but out of the corner of its eye it saw Xiao Qingdai walking towards it, so it shut its mouth and cowardly crawled into the room.
Forget it, let them go if they want.
Before it was captured and brought back to be Qingqing's pet, it walked around every day looking for food.
Compared to the delicacies and happy life here, what's taking a few steps?
The door closed, and it lazily lay down again.
Qingqing, who was outside the door, saw Xiao Qingdai's figure and knew that her mother had come to call them for dinner, so she took Wenyou's little hand and walked over.
