The four treasures discussed what to get for Little Treasure.

Third Treasure had already thought it through. She decided to gift Little Treasure a small princess dress, a pair of tiny shoes, and a princess tiara.

Second Treasure pondered for a moment. "I'll get a set for Little Treasure, too."

First Treasure and Fourth Treasure hadn't thought about what to buy yet.

If only Little Treasure were a bit older, we could just buy whatever she wanted. It wouldn't be such a headache.

Dresses for a nine-month-old girl were easy to find and cheaper in the summer.

After Second Treasure and Third Treasure entered the store, they were completely captivated by the adorable little dresses.

"Oh my gosh, these are too beautiful! And so cute! AHHH, Little Treasure would look so good in these."

"Ah, this floral dress, this plaid dress, this puffy dress, this vintage dress... I want them all!"

"Shopkeeper, I want this one, and this, and this one, too..."

"For a nine-month-old..." Third Treasure, not as unsophisticated as her sister, gave the shopkeeper the proper measurements. If they bought according to a nine-month-old's height, everything would be too small.

Second Treasure bought six little dresses, and Third Treasure bought several sets as well.

Fourth Treasure asked First Treasure, "What should we buy? Have you thought of anything?"

First Treasure just shook his head, his expression one of utter confusion.

Fourth Treasure exchanged a look with First Treasure, then had a flash of inspiration.

"I'll buy this."

Fourth Treasure's eyes had landed on a pair of angel wings that could be worn on the back, fluttering beautifully with every step. The wings were covered in feathers and were incredibly pretty. He believed the little princess at home would surely love them.

First Treasure searched around the store, finally deciding to give Little Treasure a silver bracelet.

Or maybe a silver pendant, nothing too expensive. Besides, it wouldn't necessarily be safe for a baby to wear. Silver accessories were sold everywhere, so there was no need to be picky. But any gift for Little Treasure had to be the best.

The four of them went to a jewelry store.

When the salesperson learned they were shopping for a baby, they recommended a few silver bracelets and longevity locks, which carried good symbolism. Since it was a brand-name store, the prices of the silver items were anything but ordinary.

After a brief discussion, they bought a pair of adjustable silver bangles.

Upon leaving the store, they saw it was already six-thirty and hurried home.

It also happened to be Third Treasure's turn to cook today.

The group rushed home. In the kitchen, Lin Feng had already steamed the rice and was just waiting for Third Treasure to start on the other dishes.

Zhang Yuxi and Little Treasure were playing in the courtyard.

"Brothers, sisters..."

When Little Treasure saw the four of them, she toddled forward on her short legs. But when her eyes fell on the bags they were carrying, her big, round eyes instantly lit up. Forgetting to even greet them, she went straight for the new things.

"What's this? Where did these come from? Are they for me?" She looked from one bag to the other, her excitement palpable.

Third Treasure scooped her up and bounced her gently, feeling that the little baby had gotten a bit heavier.

Second Treasure giggled and asked, "Little Treasure, take a guess. Are they for you?"

Resting in Third Treasure's arms, Little Treasure tilted her head. "I don't know!"

Once inside, Little Treasure slid out of Third Treasure's embrace and circled the pile of gifts curiously.

First Treasure handed the pair of silver bracelets to her to put on.

"Little Treasure, today is your very first Children's Day. Happy holiday! This is a gift from your Big Brother First Treasure. Do you like it?"

Little Treasure nodded joyfully. "I do! Little Treasure loves it!"

She hugged First Treasure and gave him a big smooch on the cheek. "Thank you, Big Brother First Treasure!"

Second Treasure and Third Treasure presented the clothes they had chosen. "These are holiday gifts from your Sister Second Treasure and Sister Third Treasure. Take a look, do you like them?"

Little Treasure looked them over, unable to contain her happiness. "I love them! Mwah!"

She gave both Second Treasure and Third Treasure a kiss on the cheek and said sweetly, "Thank you, Sister Second Treasure and Sister Third Treasure!"

Fourth Treasure put the wings on Little Treasure. "This is what your Brother Fourth Treasure picked for you. Do you like them?"

Little Treasure nodded. "Now I can fly! Thank you, Brother Fourth Treasure!"

Among her siblings, Little Treasure was a master of fairness, making sure everyone felt equally loved.

In truth, she probably liked Sister Third Treasure a bit more, perhaps because she was so gentle, meticulous, and patient.

With the gift-giving done, Third Treasure went to the kitchen to cook.

Now, with the little wings on her back, Little Treasure was happily driving her toy car around the courtyard. Second Treasure and Fourth Treasure played with her, while First Treasure went to help Third Treasure in the kitchen.

Lin Feng and Zhang Yuxi were tidying up their room, chatting about what had happened at the amusement park.

Zhang Yuxi was astonished. "I never taught her about credit cards... How did she know?"

Lin Feng guessed, "Maybe I used one in front of her before, and she remembered it."

Even so, Little Treasure's words and actions today had caught the couple by surprise.

She's only five months old, and she already knows how to solve problems with money? Her way of thinking is clearly different from other children's...

"I'm going downstairs to grab something..."

In less than a minute, Lin Feng returned, an odd expression on his face.

Zhang Yuxi was puzzled. "What's wrong?"

Lin Feng pursed his lips, his expression still strange. "I saw Third Treasure pouring all sorts of seasonings into the pot..."

Zhang Yuxi was speechless.

Well, how to put this? Cooking requires talent, and apparently, none of the four treasures had inherited it! First Treasure's cooking was passable; the taste was okay. Second Treasure was slightly better, excelling in presentation, which made her food look quite appetizing. As for Third Treasure's cooking... when she followed a recipe, the result was always a perfect example of "expectation vs. reality." It was edible, but you couldn't ask for much more than that. And as for Fourth Treasure... his food was simply a disaster. It was terrifying! Zhao Lizhen had a knack for making kitchens explode when she stewed things, especially with a casserole. Zhang Yuxi had a talent for blowing up the kitchen when she stir-fried... And Fourth Treasure, just like Zhao Lizhen, also made kitchens explode! It was quite magical, and very bizarre. When Fourth Treasure had cooked before, everyone had pitched in to help, but the kitchen still blew up. The smoke alarm was tripped, and the sprinklers went off, making a huge mess! In the end, Lin Feng had to step in, clean up the disaster, and make noodles for everyone.

Thinking about this, Zhang Yuxi felt a shiver of dread. "Third Treasure won't blow up the kitchen, will she?"

Lin Feng shook his head confidently. "She won't blow up the kitchen, but I have no doubt she's making another disaster dish."

Third Treasure is a very meticulous person, after all. She'll definitely have good control over things like the cooking temperature.

Zhang Yuxi fell silent.

It wasn't just Lin Feng who had witnessed the scene. First Treasure and Fourth Treasure, who were in the kitchen, had also looked up and seen it. The two of them began to tremble, seeing the sheer panic mirrored in each other's eyes.

It was as if a strange odor had begun to permeate the air.

Third Treasure stirred the pot, tasted it, and felt it was pretty good, though it seemed to be missing something.

Hmm, I'll add some sugar!

Hearing the rustle of the sugar bag, First Treasure and Fourth Treasure snapped their heads up in unison.

The two of them were speechless.

After adding the sugar, Third Treasure looked at the purplish-black soup and thought the color was quite nice. She turned her head and, seeing the strange expressions on her brothers' faces, asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

They answered in unison, "Nothing, nothing at all..."

Turning off the stove, Third Treasure clapped her hands together. "Alright, it's done! You can call everyone to come eat."
