Chang Kun exchanged a few jokes with Cheng Min, not daring to delay her from class, and then said goodbye and left.

Back home, the three little girls were sitting by the fishpond, chattering as they fed the fish.

What are you doing?

"Big brother's back!"

"Big brother, we chopped up the leaves left over from harvesting the catfish and fed them to the little fish. Hehe, aren't we clever!"

The three of them swung their little feet, enjoying the dried red dates with the big red dates. After eating, they threw the date pits into the fish pond so the fish could nibble on the remaining fruit.

"Don't throw date pits into the water, or the fish will choke!" Chang Kun quickly stopped them.

"Huh?" The three girls were dumbfounded. They had seen the fish in the fishpond chasing and pecking at the date pits, and they had thought that the fish liked to eat them.

"What should we do then, brother? Let's jump down and fish the date pit out."

Chang Kun hesitated for a moment: "Forget it, if any fish really choke to death, we'll just kill them and eat them."

Anyway, there's always someone at home, so we can just take the fish out when it looks like it's about to die. It's been a long time since we've had fish.

"That's great, Xiao Muxiu'er, let's eat some dates quickly and throw more date pits into the water, then we'll have fish to eat tonight!" When it comes to having many ideas, Chang Qing is the best.

"Yes, yes!"

The three girls didn't care whether they had eaten all the fruit flesh off the date pits; they spat out the pits and threw them into the water.

"Alright! If you throw any more date pits, Mom will beat you when she gets back!"

After finally scaring away a few troublemakers, Chang Kun wiped away a cold sweat. If they were allowed to keep throwing date pits, the fish in the pond would probably choke to death by the afternoon.

"Fine, if you don't want to play, then don't! Look, we've already finished our nine-linked rings."

Chang Qing took out the Nine-Linked Rings from her pocket and showed it off. She remembered that when her older brother gave them the Nine-Linked Rings that morning, he didn't know how to play them.

"This..." Chang Kun looked at the three solved nine-linked rings in front of him and was a little doubtful of life. Were his three younger sisters really that smart? He tried to play for a while and his head was about to explode.

"Hehe, big brother, you don't even know how to play, right?"

"Who says I can't? It's just that my older brother is an adult and doesn't like playing with children's toys!" Chang Kun tried to fiddle with the nine-linked rings a couple more times, but he really couldn't do it. He could only say that his three younger sisters were exceptionally talented.

"Hehehe..."

The three little girls laughed like weasels who had stolen chicks.

Finally, Chang Mu couldn't hold back any longer and whispered to Chang Kun, "Big brother, this wasn't Xiao Qing playing with at all. An old man next door helped her untangle this iron ring."

Chang Qing frowned slightly and said, "Xiao Mu, you little tattletale, you have to tell your big brother everything!"

She wanted to show off a bit more in front of her older brother.

"The old man next door?" Chang Kun thought for a moment and asked, "Is he an old man who's missing an arm?"

"Yeah, he only has one arm, but he's amazing! He can do so many things with just one arm."

"Tsk tsk," Chang Kun smacked his lips, thinking to himself.

This old man can play the Nine Linked Rings puzzle. He was not only a soldier fighting the Japanese, but his ancestors must have been quite remarkable. Otherwise, let alone knowing how to play the Nine Linked Rings puzzle, most people have never even seen it before.

"How did you end up running into an old man?"

Chang Qing eagerly answered, "We were sitting at the front door eating dates and playing the nine-linked rings game when the old man asked if we had just moved in. Later, he helped us play the nine-linked rings game, and we even gave him dates!"

"You do have good manners. Remember, from now on, when your parents and older brother aren't around, don't take out anything to eat in front of others, understand?"

These days, even a little food can easily cause a dispute. Three little girls were eating dates on the street, and no one cared if someone snatched them from their hands.

"oh!"

They nodded as if they understood, though they sometimes disobeyed their parents. They always did what their eldest brother said.

"Go take a nap. You need to sleep well to grow taller. You don't want to end up like Guo Xiaosi from the village, who isn't even as tall as a door bolt, do you?"

Hearing that not taking a nap would mean growing as short as Guo Xiaosi in the village, the three little girls quickly climbed onto the bed and tightly closed their eyes.

Guo Xiaosi in the village is less than 1.5 meters tall, the shortest among the adults in the village, making it very difficult for him to find a wife. Even a young girl like Xiuer knows that Xiaosi is short and is laughed at by the villagers.

"Stop wetting the bed! We just moved, and Mom's new broom hasn't been used on anyone yet, so be careful."

"Big brother, I need to pee!"

"I want one too!!"

The three little girls dashed out again, laughing and joking as they lined up to pee. Xiu'er had long forgotten about being falsely accused of bedwetting by her two older sisters that morning...

Chang Kun sighed. It was too difficult to get them to take a nap!

Parents have it easy; they don't have to worry too much about the little girls. They can just give them a beating if they want to, and raise them to adulthood even if they're roughed up.

Seeing his younger sisters looking so pitiful, he couldn't bear to scold them. If he married Cheng Min and had another daughter, then... he would become a doting father to his daughter.

With his mind a jumble of thoughts, Chang Kun lay sprawled on the bed and drifted off to sleep before the girls returned.

When I woke up, I looked at my watch and it was almost five o'clock. I had a really good sleep.

The three younger sisters were lying haphazardly on the bed. Xiuer's legs were wrapped around her two older sisters, Xiaoqing had her hands raised above her head as if in surrender, and Xiaomu was lying face down on the bed, her drool soaking the entire small pillow.

I patted the three girls' bottoms to wake them up. If they continued to sleep, who knows how late they would keep making a fuss until the next night.

"Big brother, yawn! It's almost dark!"

"Xiao Mu, Xiu'er, get up quickly and check if the fish has choked to death. We're having fish for dinner."

The other two girls jumped up, and Xiu'er immediately shouted, "Time to eat fish! Time to eat fish!"

Chang Kun: ...

Fortunately, when the fish pond was built, it was divided into two sides. One side was used to put pretty ornamental fish, while the other side was used to put delicious bass and snakehead fish.

Otherwise, the fish in this pond would be wiped out by these girls in just a few days.

The three girls ran to the fishpond, greatly disappointed: "Big brother, why aren't the fish dead yet?"

"Sigh, we won't be able to have fish tonight."

"Alright, it's our own fish, you can eat it whenever you want. Tell me, which one do you want?" Chang Kun patted his three little sisters' heads, thinking he should let them enjoy the privilege of ordering live fish for once.

"Really? Thank you, brother!"

Their eyes lit up immediately.

"I want to eat that!"

"I want to eat this, it's so fatty..."

"This flower looks delicious!"

Following their pointing fingers, Xiaoqing wanted a sea bass, Xiaomu wanted a black carp, but Xiuer was pointing at a small spotted fish. This fish, in the ornamental fish pond, was so tiny it wouldn't even be enough to fill a tooth gap…

"Okay, you guys go to the supply and marketing cooperative and wait for Mom to get off work. I'll cook these fish."

With the young girls around, he couldn't easily use his spatial abilities to deal with the fish, so he simply sent them away.

The three girls jumped up and ran outside in a swarm: "We've got fish to eat! Thank you, big brother..."

"Go find your mother!"

"I also want to drink iced water..."
