I Became the Little Demon in Leading Role's Family-Chapter 31 - Do You Have Only One Daughter
Chapter 31: Chapter 31 Do You Have Only One Daughter?
Chapter 31 -31 Do You Have Only One Daughter?
Ye Xiu took Bai Da and the others to buy things, while Bai Zhi waited at the health clinic for Bai Dan, who went to buy a stove and such.
After purchasing the stove, they locked it at the stall and also brought one home. They bought several hundred honeycomb coal briquettes, sent a hundred of them home, just in time for the delivery by tricycle. Bai Zhi and Bai Dan rode the tricycle back.
The tricycle, well, only one person can sit in the front, and the back really gives you the sensation of a roller coaster, no, it’s even more, cough cough…
It’s more like, shake shake shake, shake shake shake…
Back then it was still a muddy road, naturally bumpy, not to mention the tricycle ride. Bai Zhi, sitting in the front, felt like her butt was about to split into eight pieces, let alone Bai Dan in the back.
When they got home, Bai Zhi didn’t want to talk because she felt like throwing up…
But she held it in,
Just that, her stomach kept churning…
Had she known, had she known,
She would have walked!
Ugh~
All afternoon, she lay in bed, not wanting to move or even eat.
Bai Dan got the stove going himself, and from now on, they could cook with it and wouldn’t need to light the fire every day. This was money well spent.
…
Ye Xiu and the others bought a lot of things, from food to clothing, of course, there were disagreements.
Bai Da wanted to buy things for Ye Xiu and Xixi, but Ye Xiu only wanted to buy for the children. When purchasing, Bai Da always rushed to pay, from candy to biscuits, and finally milk, Bai Da spent all the money he brought.
The last thing Ye Xiu bought was a set of cotton shorts and a T-shirt for girls, white with little flowers, quite pretty.
Ye Xiu estimated the size to be about right, she was about to ask the seller to wrap it when Bai Da ran over again.
“Wife, let me pay.”
His gaze moved to the clothes, and without hesitation, he spoke.
“Wife, this is too small. Xixi can’t wear this, she needs about two sizes bigger.”
Bai Da often bought clothes for Xixi, so naturally, he remembered the sizes clearly.
Xixi walked over, tugging at Ye Xiu’s hand, and spoke quite endearingly.
“Mommy, I have a lot of clothes. No need to buy more. Daddy buys me clothes when he gets paid. I can’t even wear all of them.”
Xixi frowned, seemingly quite satisfied actually, and quite cute.
But at that moment, Ye Xiu found it very annoying. Xixi had too many clothes to wear, but Xingxing had none. How ironic. Yet in front of Xixi, she couldn’t show any of this.
“Okay, Xixi is so good. Next time, Mommy will buy for Xixi, all right?”
Ye Xiu’s smile vanished the moment she looked up, immediately turning to the clothing seller.
“Sister, please wrap it up for me. How much is it?”
Since it wasn’t market day, this was the only clothing store in town that was open daily, so naturally, it was a bit expensive.
“20, I’ll wrap it up for you right now.”
“Then I’ll take two sets, and that little red dress, wrap it up for me too.”
Ye Xiu’s gaze shifted to another outfit, believing Xingxing wearing it would also look like a beautiful little princess. She couldn’t forget how the doctor looked at them with possibly that ‘they come from a poor family’ kind of gaze,
Pity in his eyes, even the doctor thought that the reason Xingxing didn’t come to get her dressing changed was because they had no money, that her clothes were always the same set, and the others probably weren’t much better.
Thinking of this, Ye Xiu questioned herself more than once, how could she have neglected her daughter so completely?
“Wife, this size is too small.”
Seeing that Ye Xiu was unmoved, Bai Da spoke up again.
Ye Xiu turned her head and looked coldly at Bai Da, with an indifferent expression as if looking at a stranger.
“Do you only have one daughter?”
What Ye Xiu wanted to say even more was, is Xixi the only daughter in your heart? What about Xingxing?
But looking at Xixi’s little face, she ultimately didn’t say it, fearing that Xixi would feel hurt.
“I…” Bai Da was stunned, then it dawned on him that the clothes were for Bai Zhi, and suddenly he dared not speak. He could only cautiously say, “Shall I pay?”
In fact, he had always felt that Bai Zhi didn’t care about dressing up, so what difference did it make what she wore? Even the nicest clothes would end up dirty.
But Ye Xiu’s icy look was too cold, and he didn’t dare to say more, Afraid that Ye Xiu would get angry, which would pain him even more when she did.
Xixi tugged at Bai Da’s hand, giving him a sweet smile as though to comfort him.
“Daddy, it’s only right to buy clothes for sister.”
Although the brothers and dad had always said that sister didn’t need pretty clothes, and sister had said the same, the young Xixi felt that sister should also be dressed beautifully.
It must be said that the group pet at this moment was indeed a rather likeable little girl.
Bai Da gave an awkward smile, his heart filled with bitterness, his money was all spent, and there were still several days until next month’s salary. How could he afford to buy more with the upcoming life expenses as a concern?

Fortunately, they still had rice and cured meat at home, and even the vegetables were there, so there was no need to worry about the meals.
This was the reason Bai Da could never save money; he always had to appear very generous or play the role of a good husband. Every time Ye Xiu came back, no matter whether she liked or needed it, he felt she should have it all, he would buy and buy and buy, and Xixi too. So, his salary was spent clean every month, without a penny left.
Ye Xiu paid for the clothes and was very satisfied looking at the outfits in the bag. Now Xingxing would have clothes to change into as well. Ye Xiu handed the bag to Bai Da.
On the way to school, Ye Xiu, looking at Bai Ye and Bai Yu who had been silent all along, spoke up.
“Don’t blame your mom for not buying you clothes. You two have so many clothes that you’ve got a whole basin of them. I washed no less than five sets for you yesterday alone. But Xingxing, she wears the same outfit all day long. Haven’t you noticed?”
You should know that Bai Ye and Bai Yu certainly wouldn’t shortchange themselves. As long as they went out with mom, they would naturally make Bai Da buy them things because they knew that with mom around, dad would agree. As for Bai Zhi at home, she was naturally the one perpetually overlooked.
Bai Ye pursed his lips, kicking stones on the road with a defiant look.
“Mom, we don’t blame you.”
It was the always obedient and sensible Bai Yu who spoke. His gaze shifted to Bai Ye and then dutifully back to Ye Xiu,
“We understand what mom means. Don’t worry, we will take good care of home, and you don’t have to worry about us at school.”
Bai Yu never skimped on saying pleasant, polite things. At this moment, he looked earnestly at Ye Xiu, appearing especially obedient and sensible. A good brother who loved his sister.
A good brother is naturally a good brother, but whose good brother he is, that remains to be debated.
Ye Xiu was indeed very comforted and gently rubbed Bai Yu’s head with tenderness.
