It doesn't matter if your souls are scattered, as long as you die.

Yun Li leaned against the corner of the wall, watching the fool amuse himself by himself, feeling a little envious.

He stretched out a hand and beckoned to the fool.

"come over!"

The silly boy didn't hear him and continued happily playing in the mud.

"Come here, I'll give you something good to eat," Yun Li called out again.

Perhaps the words "delicious" flipped a switch, because the silly boy no longer seemed oblivious as before. Instead, he rushed towards her like a rocket the moment she finished speaking.

Yun Li's pupils contracted. What talent!

"Little sister, it's delicious!" The silly boy stretched out a dirty hand and looked at Yun Li with a grin.

Yun Li turned her palm over, and a piece of mung bean cake came into the silly boy's eyes, its aroma rushing straight to his nose.

But he didn't reach out; instead, he looked at Yun Li.

Yun Li was surprised that he was actually quite polite.

"Here, have some!" She extended her hand forward.

Without any hesitation, the silly boy grabbed the mung bean cake and put it in his mouth.

"Good, um, really good..."

Yun Li rested her chin on her hand and watched as the silly boy finished a piece of mung bean cake in a few bites and even licked his hands.

Yun Li: "..."

The silly boy, who had finished eating, didn't leave. He grinned at Yun Li, radiating an aura of wanting more.

Yun Li ate a lot and generously took another large meat bun.

After finishing, I want more.

Yun Li continued taking.

The silly boy couldn't eat anymore, so he rubbed his stomach and sat down next to Yun Li.

When Liu Xiaomei returned and saw her son and Yun Li sitting side by side, her face beamed with joy.

She went out to inquire if anyone had lost a child, but there wasn't.

This pleased her; if no one abandoned the child, it meant that Yun Li might really be a little beggar.

She had made up her mind that she would take her to register her household registration tomorrow.

She wanted to treat the little beggar kindly, so that the two little ones could develop a bond from a young age. Once they had a deep affection for each other, her son would be settled in the future.

The difference between the initial discipline and the current kindness is just a matter of half a pound of oil.

The lucky star certainly cannot be treated unfairly.

"Little one, what's your name?"

Yun Li didn't speak, but looked up at the sky, and the silly boy followed suit.

Liu Xiaomei was not angry at her son's indifference; instead, she couldn't stop smiling when she saw his actions.

"If you don't have a name, your aunt will give you one."

She thought for a moment and said, "Let's call him Sun Fubao."

Liu Xiaomei changed Yun Li's name without consulting her.

When Yun Li heard the name Fu Bao, the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily. In the ninety-nine miles he had traveled, he had encountered at least eighty or a hundred people named Fu Bao.

It's a very common name, but also a name that has been showered with endless affection.

"Fu Bao, Auntie just went to buy some meat. I'll make braised pork for you tonight."

Liu Xiaomei lifted the basket, and there was a small piece of meat inside, probably less than a pound.

She decided to buy this piece of meat on a whim, just to entice Yun Li to stay at their house.

After all, even if we want to register the adoption, she has to give her consent.

"Fu Bao, your aunt has decided to adopt you. From now on, you won't have to wander around and go hungry anymore."

"You don't need to worry that your aunt will treat you badly. Your aunt will treat you very well. There is only one request. Your aunt hopes that you can take care of this silly brother next to you in the future."

No matter what Liu Xiaomei said, Yun Li didn't respond at all; it was just the woman talking the whole time.

After chatting for a while, Liu Xiaomei looked at the sun, stopped talking, and went inside with her basket.

A little while later, he came out again carrying a smaller basket, put the piece of meat in the basket, and hung it in the well.

When she returned to the house, she gave Yun Li a gentle smile.

Yun Li: "..."

Lunch was simple: corn porridge with pickled vegetables.

Shen Dajiang eats at the factory while he's working, and Shen Yan eats at school while she's studying. For lunch, Liu Xiaomei, Sha Xiaozi, and Yun Li eat together.

Because the silly boy was fed too much by Yun Li in the morning, he only ate one bite at lunchtime and then stopped eating.

Liu Xiaomei, thinking something was wrong, anxiously asked, "Why isn't Sheng'er eating?"

"Sheng'er, you're full." She patted her belly as she spoke.

Liu Xiaomei didn't doubt what her son said, because although her son was simple-minded, he was very particular about food.

This is strange. I ate the same breakfast as usual this morning, so why am I not hungry today?

"Sheng'er, are you really not going to eat?"

"No, no, Sheng'er's tummy is bloated."

Liu Xiaomei reached out and touched his stomach; it was indeed quite bloated.

Suddenly, her expression changed, and she turned to Yun Li, asking, "Fu Bao, did your silly brother eat mud today?"

She asked this because he had done the same thing when he was a child, but fortunately it was discovered in time.

Yun Li didn't want to speak, but seeing the woman's nervous expression, he shook his head.

Liu Xiaomei breathed a sigh of relief.

"So what did you see your mentally challenged brother eat?"

Yun Li fell silent.

After spending the morning together, Liu Xiaomei had gotten to know her personality and decided not to press her for details.

Instead, she coaxed her simple-minded son, asking, "Sheng'er, what delicious things did you eat today?"

That silly boy is a silly boy; he honestly confessed everything.

"Baobao, Gaogao, Rourou..."

He counted them off one by one on his fingers.

Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaomei smiled helplessly. Each of these dishes was a delicacy; her son must be dreaming.

Never mind, I won't ask anymore. As long as my son is alright, that's all that matters.

Every day after lunch, Liu Xiaomei would take the silly boy out to play for a while.

However, I brought one more person with me today, and that is Yun Li.

The place where they played was a square in this community, which was also a place where Zhou Lanlan's two children often came.

Yun Li was very disappointed that the two children had been taken home; otherwise, she could have found an opportunity to make her move.

The silly boy had already run out to play. Liu Xiaomei didn't follow closely, but her eyes were always fixed on her son's figure.

Yun Li found a shady spot under a tree and sat down, releasing his spiritual energy.

At this time, Zhou Lanlan's parents had already buried their daughter and son-in-law and returned home.

As soon as they got home, the two children started complaining all at once, accusing the two police officers.

Upon hearing that her granddaughter had been forcibly brought back, Zhou Lanlan's mother was furious.

"You are here to protect the two children. You are not allowed to interfere with them except when they are in danger."

"Don't you even understand your own mission? And you call yourselves police officers?"

The two police officers had grim faces. Their mission was indeed to protect the two children, but as police officers, they couldn't pretend not to see the two children bullying others.

The two children were unruly and bullied the little girl. When the girls tried to reprimand them, they were kicked and punched by the two children.

As police officers and adults, they naturally wouldn't hold a grudge against a child.

But who would have thought that these two children would go even further and start bullying other, even younger, children?

Nowadays, most families have several children. If someone bullies a younger child, the older children will step in to help.

To prevent them from being beaten, they had no choice but to forcibly bring the two children back.

The old Chinese medicine doctor also knew about what happened that morning. When he heard the old woman say that, he just snorted coldly.

"Do you think it's right for your kids to bully others? If you don't discipline these two kids properly, they'll be ruined."

"But then again, with elders like you, it's not surprising that they behave this way."
