Chapter 294 Daily Life

Xiao Siyue was unaware of what had happened at the Zhou family's home; she was currently preoccupied with worrying about her own little orange.

Little Orange is actually a female cat. She gave birth to three kittens a month ago, but Little Orange doesn't have enough milk, and the three kittens cry for food all day long.

Xiao Siyue wanted to feed the kitten some goat milk, but the kitten was still too small to swallow.

"Miss, what should we do?" Lan Yi was worried that the kitten might starve to death.

"Lanyi, go find some feathers and bamboo joints." Xiao Siyue planned to make a simple syringe to try it out.

The syringe was easy to make, and Xiao Siyue finished it in no time, then filled the syringe with goat milk.

Lan Yi picked up a kitten, and Xiao Siyue slowly pushed goat milk into the kitten's mouth with a syringe.

"Miss, she drank it." Lan Yi said excitedly.

"Mmm." Xiao Siyue was also very happy. The kitten's fur on both sides of its mouth was covered with white goat milk, making it look extremely cute.

I don't know what color the kitten's father is. One of the three kittens is pure white, while the other two are yellow, similar to a small orange cat.

"Auntie, Auntie!" Xiao Siyue and Lan Yi had just finished feeding the three kittens when they heard Xiao Yichen's enthusiastic call.

As Xiao Siyue watched Xiao Yichen's small body running towards her, she quickly said, "Slow down, be careful not to fall."

"Auntie, is this Little Orange's kitten?" Xiao Yichen squatted down next to Xiao Siyue and gently stroked the little white kitten's body with his small hand.

"Yes, isn't he cute?" Xiao Siyue pinched Xiao Yichen's chubby cheeks.

"It's so cute! Its fur is all white. Why is it different from Little Orange?" Xiao Yichen was a little confused. The other two looked so much like Little Orange, but this one was different.

"Hmm, maybe it's because this kitten looks like its dad."

"Then who is its father? I've never seen him before," Xiao Yichen asked again.

"Auntie doesn't know either." She didn't even know when her own cat got pregnant, let alone its father.

"Auntie, when Xiaobai grows up, can I keep it as a pet?" Xiao Yichen looked at Xiao Siyue expectantly.

"Sure, but Chenchen has to promise Auntie you that you'll take good care of Xiaobai, otherwise Auntie can't give it to you." Xiao Siyue was afraid that Xiao Yichen was just a child at heart and wouldn't like it after raising it for a while.

"Yes, yes, I definitely will, Auntie, don't worry," Xiao Yichen assured him. He really loved kittens.

"Okay, then wait until Xiaobai is able to eat on its own before you raise it, okay?" The kitten is still small and not easy to raise, so let it stay with its mother, Xiaojuzi, for now.

"Okay, thank you, Auntie. I will definitely take good care of Xiaobai." Xiao Yichen was overjoyed to hear his aunt's promise and stared intently at Xiaobai.

After Xiao Siyue put the three kittens in their nest, Little Orange came back from somewhere.

"Meow~~" Little Orange rubbed against Xiao Siyue's leg and meowed softly.

Xiao Siyue picked up Xiao Ju Zi: "Xiao Ju Zi, where did you go to play?"

"Meow~~"

"Auntie." Looking into Xiao Yichen's bright eyes, Xiao Siyue immediately understood and placed the little orange in Xiao Yichen's arms.

Looking at Xiao Yichen's innocent and lively appearance, Xiao Siyue couldn't help but think of the time when Xiao Yichen told her that he wanted to learn martial arts. A few days later, Xiao Siyuan found him a master.

Unexpectedly, the child actually persevered. Regardless of wind or rain, Xiao Yichen would get up early every day to practice for an hour.

Over the past six months, I've grown quite a bit taller and become much stronger.

"Chenchen, is practicing martial arts tiring?"

"Auntie, practicing martial arts is so tiring, I can't even sleep in anymore." Xiao Yichen's happy face immediately turned into a sad one.

"Should Chenchen give up?" Xiao Siyue asked deliberately.

"No," Xiao Yichen replied firmly.

"Why? Aren't you very tired?"

"Although practicing martial arts is tiring, I love it. I want to be a great general in the future, so no matter how tired I am, I will not give up."

"Alright, since Chenchen likes it so much, let's keep practicing. Auntie is waiting for our Chenchen to become a great general."

"Auntie, I will definitely become a great general."

Xiao Yichen is quite busy now. After playing with Xiao Juzi for a while, he went back home because he had to study in the afternoon.

After Xiao Yichen left, Xiao Siyue had nothing to do, so she went to Grandma Xiao's place to talk to her.

But little did we expect that there were other people in Grandma Xiao's house.

"grandmother."

"Yue'er is here, come quickly, this is Grandma Qiao." Grandma Xiao said, pointing to an elegantly dressed old lady sitting to the side.

"Siyue greets Grandma Qiao." Xiao Siyue bowed.

She wondered who this was, how come she had never seen him before, and when her grandmother had met such a person.

"Get up, get up quickly."

"Oh my, old sister, this is your granddaughter. She's so beautiful! You're so lucky," Old Madam Qiao said, praising Xiao Siyue.

"Haha, yes, this is my only granddaughter, Siyue." Old Mrs. Xiao loved it when people praised her granddaughter, and she laughed heartily when she heard Old Mrs. Qiao's words.

"Old lady, how did you raise your children? They're all so well-behaved; I'm truly envious." The envy in Madam Qiao's eyes was practically overflowing.

"Oh, I'm just an old woman from the countryside, how would I know how to raise children? It's all up to the children themselves," Old Mrs. Xiao said modestly.

Xiao Siyue lowered her head and chuckled to herself. Her grandmother's words were truly...

"Yes, yes, your grandsons are all sensible and intelligent, unlike our few rascals. We teach them every day, but they are still useless. My husband and I are so worried about them," said Madam Qiao, frowning.

"Don't worry, little sister. Your children are still young, just a bit mischievous. They'll be fine when they're older. Your good fortune is yet to come," Old Mrs. Xiao comforted her, thinking to herself that her own grandson was the best, someone she didn't have to worry about.

"Then it's all good wishes from you, dear sister. I don't expect them to be like your children. I'd be satisfied if they were even half as good as you." Old Madam Qiao's brows relaxed.

The two chatted for a while about their children, which Xiao Siyue listened to with great interest. She also learned who this old lady Qiao was.

So this Mrs. Qiao is our neighbor! I've never seen her before, but I do know her grandson. He's quite famous, especially her little grandson. He's only ten years old now, and he does everything except study. He's always messing around with cats and dogs and gets scolded by his dad. He's a complete brat.

Everyone in their neighborhood knows about them. Xiao Siyue even ran into them once when she went out. Her father was chasing her around, making her very lively.

Xiao Siyue couldn't help but laugh when she thought of that scene; it was just too funny. Although the child was mischievous, he didn't do anything to hurt anyone.

Just as Xiao Siyue was reminiscing, Old Madam Qiao said, "Elder sister, I've come today to ask you about some things."
