Everyone Wants to Pamper the Peasant Girl - Chapter 2

Chapter 2: Grandsons are Weeds; Daughter is Treasure

“I can’t wait to give all my time in the world to dote on my precious daughter. How would I have the time to dote on you?” Second Fu spoke the truth.

His precious daughter had occupied his whole mind, eyes, and heart

As for his grandsons, there was just no additional space for them!

Let their parents dote on them instead.

He couldn’t spare that extra energy.

“Grandpa, you usually dote on me the most.” Fu Xiaohu’s eyes were filled with hurt, unwilling to accept what he just heard.

“Then remember, from now on, I won’t have time to dote on you.” he announced the cruel truth.

He didn’t even bother to tell a white lie.

The Fu family’s grandsons all looked like they were about to cry.

They felt like he didn’t love them anymore.

As if thinking that he wasn’t hurtful enough, Second Fu added, “You have to know that in our family, boys are worth the least. You boys are the weeds, and your youngest aunt is the treasure, do you understand?”

“Repeat after me.” Second Fu suddenly felt the need to engrave this firmly into their brains.

They had to be taught this concept since they were young.

This would make his daughter’s future more secure.

This way, she would not be bullied.

“We are the weeds, Youngest Aunt is the treasure.” Second Fu began with a strict expression, prompting them to follow.

He did not think that there was anything wrong or inappropriate with what he just said.

Feeling pressured by Second Fu’s authority, the grandsons did not dare to disobey.

“We are the weeds, Youngest Aunt is the treasure.”

“Louder!”

“We are the weeds, Youngest Aunt is the treasure.”

They recited with all their might.

“Don’t just say it. You have to remember it in your mind and your heart at all times.” Second Fu instantly turned into a teacher, dedicated to engraving this extremely important piece of knowledge into their little minds.

“Your aunt is the only little girl in our family. As men, we should love her, protect her, and pamper her unconditionally…”

Second Fu spoke non-stop, his saliva flying everywhere.

To summarize all that he said in a nutshell—his daughter was a top treasure.

The Fu family’s grandsons repeated after Second Fu mechanically, as if they had been brainwashed.

Seeing that the brainwashing is almost completed,

Second Fu waved his hand. “Go, go, go. Go back to your room and revise your homework. I’ll test you when I’m free.” he said.

He would think of more knowledge points for them to learn, after he returned.

He would strengthen and reiterate what he has just taught them.

On the way back to the house, all his grandsons were still reciting.

After they left, Second Fu took a deep breath.

He could finally return to his room to see his precious daughter.

How nerve-wracking!

How exciting!

He had to leave a good impression on his daughter when they met for the first time.

Hence, he shaved and washed his face clean. He splashed some water on his hair to make it shine and smoothed out the creases on his clothes. After checking himself a few times to ensure that he looks presentable, he opened the door and entered the room.

It was like he was going for an interview to be a president.

At this moment, Mdm Fu was lying on the bed and was slightly weak from giving birth.

She was not young anymore. To give birth at this age was undeniably a toll on her body.

“Old woman, are you alright?” As soon as he entered the house, Second Fu’s gaze immediately landed on his wife. His gaze was gentle as a stream. His heart ached from the pain that his wife had just gone through.

“I’m fine.”

Usually, one would expect a woman who had just given birth to be weak. However, she had already had the experience of giving birth to two children previously. Moreover, her body had always been strong.

What made it even better was that her daughter was such a peaceful angel while she was still in her womb. She did not cause her any sleepiness, morning-sickness nor any body-aches. The whole pregnancy was a breeze.

She almost felt lonely during her pregnancy, free of the usual pregnancy discomforts that she had expected.

Even the delivery was extremely smooth.

Her daughter was a godsend, and she must be here to bless the family.

The midwife finished packing her belongings and approached Second Fu with a warm smile. She was skilled in her words, and said, “Second Fu, your daughter is truly beautiful. I have delivered many babies, but none as lovely as your daughter—her skin is so fair, her face round and her eyes large. She smiles at everyone like a friendly doll. When she grows up, she will surely be the most beautiful woman in Liu Shan Village.”

Second Fu did not care to be modest, “Of course. My daughter is definitely beautiful. No, she’s the most beautiful of all.”

Even though he had not seen her yet.

In his heart, his daughter must be the most beautiful.

Not just one of the most beautiful, but the MOST beautiful.

The midwife’s mouth stiffened.

How immodest.

Yet, it was indeed not an exaggeration. Usually, newborns would have wrinkled skin resembling that of walnut shells. Yet this girl was born with skin as fair and smooth as tofu.

The moment she opened her eyes, she smiled at those around her. She was very adorable.

She would definitely be a beauty when she grew up.

Seeing that her husband was boasting in front of the midwife, Mdm Fu smiled shyly.

This old man, why can’t he be a little modest?

She thought of something and shouted, “Old man, why are you still standing there? Hurry up and take out the red packet. Don’t waste the midwife’s precious time.”

Regardless of whether it was a boy or a girl, they would give a red packet to the midwife. It doesn’t matter how much is inside. What’s important is the symbolic meaning of the act, which will bring auspiciousness to both parties.

Second Fu smacked the back of his head hard and said, “Right! My memory is failing me.”

He was so happy that he forgot about this very important matter.

He quickly took out a red packet from his pocket. “There you go, midwife, thank you so much.”

The midwife grinned and declined verbally, saying that it’s nothing, yet her movements were smoother than a snake.

Before Second Fu had handed over the red packet, she had already grabbed it and stuffed it into her pocket. She said sweetly, “The most important thing is that both mother and daughter are safe, and that you got what you wished for.”

“Yes, yes, yes.”

Nothing was more important than the safety of his wife and daughter.

As part of the usual procedure, the midwife shared some precautions that needed to be taken note of after giving birth. Second Fu then politely sent her out of the house.

After sending her off, he hurriedly ran back into the room.

He ran so fast that he almost fell on his face.

Mdm Fu found his actions amusing and scoffed, “You’re already so old and a grandfather. Yet you’re still acting like a young boy, crashing here and there. How do we depend on you?”

Second Fu scratched his head and chuckled. “I’m just excited to see our precious daughter.”

Heart bursting with excitement!

Hands shaking like they are about to fall off!

“My precious daughter, Daddy is here.”

His voice was as tender as cotton.

Mdm Fu couldn’t help but laugh.

Their gazes landed on their daughter on the bed.

The little girl was sleeping soundly.

She smacked her lips a few times in her sleep, and two round dimples appeared.

Absolutely adorable!

With just one look, his heart melted.

Second Fu was so nervous that he didn’t know where to place his hands. “My daughter looks like a goddess. She is too beautiful.”

She was fair like milk, pure, round and soft. Absolutely different from all his sons and grandsons, who were tan-skinned and rough like charcoal when they were born.

His daughter was nothing like them.

She looked good from any angle.

He couldn’t get enough of looking at her.

She was the embodiment of beauty in the Fu family. No, she would be the face of Liu Shan Village.

“What nonsense are you talking about? How can you tell, at such a young age?” Mdm Fu shot him a side glance and said.

Lowering her gaze onto her daughter, Mdm Fu felt her motherly love blossom.

She was really beautiful.

Second Fu didn’t care, “It doesn’t matter. My daughter is a goddess. Whoever disagrees shall be my enemy!”

How childish.

Realizing that he had spoken too loudly, he hurriedly covered his mouth, like a small boy who had done something wrong.

Mdm Fu looked at him, unable to stop her smile from reaching her eyes.

The couple sat at the head of the bed and gazed at their daughter carefully. They were unable to shift their gaze away.

The more they looked at her, the more love they felt for her.

Second Fu reached out and retracted his hand a few times, wanting to touch his daughter but not daring to.

His palms were sweating from nervousness.

“Look at how silly you are! Just go ahead and touch her if you want to.”

Mdm Fu didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry.

“Then… I will touch her.”
