"Auntie Xiu, it's okay."
Seeing the smiling Xiaohu, who was asking for cuddles, Qiu Xi also felt like smiling.
"You little guy, at such a young age, if you weren't so cute, I'd ignore you!"
"No, Sister Xiaoxi, I'm very well-behaved!"
"Good~ Only well-behaved children get candy!"
"Mhmm!"
"Sister, I want candy~"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiaohu blinked his big eyes at Qiu Xi, stretched out his small fleshy hands, and started asking for candy.
"..."
You little brat, after all that talk, you just want candy, don't you!
Qiu Xi didn't know whether to be glad she had candy or lament that she was now less important than a piece of candy!
"..."
Zhang Xiu was even more speechless and helpless. This little rascal, who ate enough at home every day, was still eyeing other people's candy.
Of course, neither of them knew that Xiaohu, this clever devil, only cared about the candy Qiu Xi exchanged from the system.
Normally, the candy he took to school was either for the beautiful teacher or the pretty girl...
A perfect little prodigy!
"Alright, here's your candy. Stay put! We'll be done soon."
"Uh-huh!"
At this moment, Xiaohu's eyes were all on the candy, but he still nodded vigorously subconsciously.
...
"Xiaoxi, since you're here, after you've looked at the designs, come take a look at something your mother and I recently discussed and give us some suggestions."
After their last conversation, Zhang Xiu had already started preparing.
It was just that she and Huang Li were the only ones, and it was difficult to find someone to discuss with. Now that Xiaoxi was back, she could give them some ideas.
"Okay!"
Qiu Xi nodded without hesitation.
After all, she had nothing else to do and was in a period of good rest.
However, after looking through everything, Qiu Xi didn't propose any issues.
This was because she realized that the plan was already very well done by just her mother and Aunt Zhang.
Finally, Qiu Xi glanced at the design for the brand logo, and then, using some small techniques she had learned from the system, she made a small modification for them.
"You know, Xiaoxi's few strokes really added the finishing touch!"
Looking at the revised design, Zhang Xiu was a little excited. With this, she could start processing things directly after the new year.
As she got excited, she started praising Qiu Xi.
"Of course, you should see who Xiaoxi is..."
"..."
Seeing them start to boast to each other after finishing, Qiu Xi felt overwhelmed.
The key was that her skin wasn't thick enough!
"Mom, you guys continue to be busy. I'll take Xiaohu to see how Dad's lunch is coming along."
Out of desperation, Qiu Xi retreated from their battlefield.
"Go ahead."
...
"Dad, is Xiao Gezi off tomorrow?"
"Yes, why?"
"Nothing much, I just want to go pick him up with you tomorrow."
She had nothing to do at home, and she actually missed her younger brother, whom she hadn't seen in half a year.
"So early, why don't we sleep in a bit longer?" His dad's thoughts were that it was just a matter of picking someone up and bringing them back, so his daughter didn't need to go with him.
Qiu Dad had already mentally substituted himself into the role of his daughter doting on him.
He even had a tendency to get carried away.
"Your father! Stop babbling, if your daughter wants to go, then go together."
Qiu Mom thought simply. They had a car anyway, so it was just a joyride.
Coincidentally, she also had something she wanted her daughter to do.
"Alright then."
Since Qiu Mom had said so, Qiu Dad nodded along.
Having received permission, Qiu Xi immediately replied, "Okay, then I'll go to bed early tonight."
"Mhmm."
"Oh right, Xiaoxi, come here for a moment."
"Mom, what is it?"
"It's not a big deal."
"It's just that your mother has been researching plant dyeing recently, and I don't know if it will be useful. I want you to go to the flower and bird market with your father tomorrow after picking up your brother to buy some things for me."
Saying that, Qiu Mom took out the list she had compiled and handed it to her daughter.
"Mom, are you..."
After taking the list, Qiu Xi suspected that her mother knew about this skill of hers and had deliberately chosen this task for her...
She had just learned this skill before the holiday, and now, just a few days into the holiday, she already had a chance to use it.
"What is it?"
This girl, speaking halfway, was really impatient.
"It's nothing."
Thinking again, Qiu Xi shook her head. It was impossible.
"Then if there's nothing else, you can go back."
Seeing that she didn't seem to have anything else, perhaps she had just been in a daze.
"Don't forget tomorrow, the three of you!"
Before her daughter could walk out, Qiu Mom reminded her again.
"Mom, don't worry, I promise I'll handle it perfectly. You can just wait to receive the goods."
After all, she was now someone who had a cheat in this area and wouldn't mess this up.
"That's good then."
Qiu Mom had great faith in her daughter, who was becoming more and more reliable in handling things.
"What are you telling our daughter?"
Qiu Dad, who had just returned and wanted to hear what they were talking about, only saw his daughter's back as she returned to her room.
Since he didn't hear the live version, he had to ask his wife.
"It's not a big deal, just about you guys going to the flower and bird market tomorrow."
"Are we buying flowers, grass, or birds?"
Qiu Dad thought for a long time and couldn't figure out what the family was missing.
"Just some flowers and grass, I need them. I've already given the list to Xiaoxi. You three will buy them for me tomorrow."
"Okay, I guarantee I'll handle it perfectly for you, my dear wife."
"You're so old already, still fooling around. Aren't you ashamed!"
"What are you afraid of? The door is closed!"
They were family, a husband and wife, and once the door was closed, nothing mattered.
"..."
"You're the one with the thick skin!"
"Hehehe~"
"Let's go to sleep! Don't be late picking up Xiao Gezi tomorrow."
"Okay! Coming right up!"
Another beautiful night!
...
The next day, father and daughter woke up early.
Qiu Xi didn't forget to pack some breakfast to go, which made Qiu Dad feel helpless.
This brat was lucky to have breakfast made by him, and delivered by his daughter personally.
"Dad, ready to go?"
"Let's go, let's go right away."
As he responded, Qiu Dad was already in the car.
