Chapter 275: Chapter 276: No New Clothes

Her hair was knotted in two buns, each fastened with a red ribbon and adorned with small bells. As she moved, they’d jingle attractively, definitely capturing attention.

"Guibao looks absolutely lovely today!" Zhou Zhaodi walked out from the house and complimented her sincerely.

Chen Erbao chimed in immediately. "Guibao is like a little fairy descended from heaven. She’s the prettiest girl in the entire commune!"

None of his friends’ sisters were as pretty as his!

Helian Qiao sat on her stool, swinging her little legs and sucked up all the praise with delight.

She too believed she was the most beautiful!

Aside from her, all the other children from the Chen Family wore old clothes without patches.

However, Sini was wearing the clothes from last year which looked almost as if they were brand new.

Even at such a tender age, Sini was somewhat vain, constantly touching her clothes with her small hands, obviously very pleased.

The year-and-a-half-old Liuni and half-a-year-old Jinbao also wore clothes she had once worn, and they too looked quite new.

Erni stood by, tugging at the dress she was wearing that once belonged to Dani, her eyes full of jealousy and resentment.

Why did they have to wear old clothes on New Year’s?! And yet Guibao was able to wear fancy new clothes!!

She completely forgot that it was Jiang Manyun who had bought the clothes for Guibao, and the Chen Family didn’t spend a penny.

Envy welled up in Erni. She glared at Helian Qiao’s hair bells, her eyes glowing green with envy.

In addition to the clothing set for Guibao, Jiang Manyun had also bought hair flowers and bells for the other girls.

Erni herself had chosen a hair flower, happily wore it on her head, and was reluctant to take it off every day.

If it wasn’t for the fear of flattening it, she would have even slept with it on.

But seeing the bells in Guibao’s hair now, she suddenly became unhappy again, regretting choosing the hair flower over the bells.

The sound of the bells was so pleasant, and they looked so lovely!

So, she whined to Dani, "Sis! I want those bells too."

She dared not dream of new clothes, especially when even the boys were in old clothes, but she absolutely wanted to have those bells.

However, good-natured Dani said honestly, "Erni, you chose that hair flower yourself, and it looks great on you."

Erni pouted, "But I don’t like hair flowers anymore, I like bells now! Sis, can you help me trade with Guibao?"

Fortunately, Dani was a principled girl. "No chance, Guibao has already put them on."

Erni didn’t say anything after that, but she felt somewhat disappointed, feeling that Dani wasn’t doting on her as much as before.

Li Chunhua was more displeased than ever.

Looking at the old clothes on Jinbao, she couldn’t help but frown.

Why did that damned girl always have new clothes when her son could only wear her hand-me-downs!

Jinbao was clearly more beautiful and luckier than her!

Compared to Chen Xiaobao, Li Chunhua now preferred her fair and obedient little son.

And Jinbao was indeed very handsome, with rosy lips and pearly white teeth, much like Helian Qiao when she was young, also not prone to crying and making a fuss, just not as chubby.

Because of these similarities, Ma Xiulian also liked this little grandson very much, and she would make him some egg custard every other day.

Li Chunhua was not only ungrateful, but also full of complaints.

At the beginning, that waste of money had egg custard every day and delicate food every meal!

Why was her mother-in-law so stingy when it came to her precious grandson?!

"Ah, ah~"

At this time, the previously quiet Jinbao, who was in her arms, turned his pitch-black eyes and saw Helian Qiao. He immediately got excited, waving his arms and calling out to her.
