Transmigration: The Main Character is Not Becoming the Cannon Fodder! Chapter 376 - 5: Child-Rearing Strategy (Part 5)

The original owner, due to her husband’s disappearance, suffered from long-term depression. Soone approached her and took care of her, comforted her, accompanied her, and showed her sunshine, so she trusted Tao Xiaoxiao so much.

If the original owner had been more calm, she could have discovered from Tao Xiaoxiao’s eyes and usual behavior that this person was not trustworthy.

The greed in this woman’s eyes was just too obvious.

Li Shuning first lulled the baby to sleep, and after the baby was asleep, she planned to have a al, but then she noticed that it seed soone was watching her.

This feeling relied entirely on her robust spiritual power.

Her spiritual power surged outward and found Tao Xiaoxiao hiding outside the window, observing the situation inside the house.

Li Shuning chuckled; this woman, she was really sothing.

Just for a al? Trying to catch her in the act? So what? Seeing her eat a al, would she barge in? These days, everyone is having a hard ti; not sharing a al is understandable, right?

Li Shuning poured herself a glass of water, drank it, and then began to clean.

In reality, her spiritual power had already spread out, influencing a neighbor sister-in-law.

Before long, that sister-in-law ca out with her child, strolling over to Li Shuning’s place.

The path the sister-in-law took happened to pass by the window where Tao Xiaoxiao stood.

Eldest Sister-in-law Ye saw Tao Xiaoxiao and asked curiously, "Xiaoxiao, what are you doing here?"

Eldest Sister-in-law Ye had a loud voice and the room’s sound insulation wasn’t great at that ti, so Li Shuning pretended to hear and directly opened the window.

Tao Xiaoxiao was startled.

Her face imdiately flushed red, caught off guard, which made her very embarrassed.

Li Shuning pretended not to see, strangely asking, "Little Sister Tao hasn’t left yet? What are you doing here?"

Tao Xiaoxiao imdiately said, "I just thought of sothing and wanted to ask Sister-in-law, but I was afraid Sister-in-law was already asleep, so I wanted to check. Otherwise, I’d knock on the door and might wake Sister-in-law."

Li Shuning’s expression was a bit odd, but she didn’t say much, just smiled and said, "Then what does Little Sister Tao want to ask?"

"Sister-in-law, your fabric feels really good; I wonder where you bought it?"

"Little Sister Tao, that was sent by a friend, so I don’t know where exactly to buy it."

Afterward, Tao Xiaoxiao hurriedly left, saying she needed to go ho for a al.

Eldest Sister-in-law Ye was shrewd; this Tao Xiaoxiao, buying fabric? She had seen the fabric before and felt how comfortable it was; could she afford it? It was probably just an excuse.

Seeing Li Shuning hesitant earlier, she laughed, "Young Sister, what are you up to?"

"Sister-in-law Ye, bring Xiao Keke inside to play, I’m cleaning."

Li Shuning went to open the door, and Eldest Sister-in-law Ye ca in with her son.

The room might not be extravagantly luxurious, but it was warm and comfortable.

Sitting on the living room sofa, Li Shuning poured them a glass of water and gave a few candies, stuffing them into Xiao Keke’s hands.

Sister-in-law Ye felt a bit embarrassed; these candies were expensive. She thought to herself, next ti, she’d bring Li Shuning so hogrown vegetables. Though they weren’t worth much, they were fresh and counted as her goodwill.

Li Shuning changed the topic, "Where’s Sister-in-law heading this noon?"

"Oh, don’t ntion it, Xiao Keke, this naughty kid, doesn’t like napping, had to co out and play, so I brought him for a walk."

"Hey, Young Sister, I saw Tao Xiaoxiao hiding outside just now; what was she up to, being so sneaky?"

Li Shuning smiled, "Little Sister Tao ca around ten, saying she wanted to see the baby sling, ntioning she had a little niece at ho, so I showed it to her."

Sister-in-law Ye’s eyes twinkled, "Young Sister, ten o’clock, huh? But now it’s past twelve, did she stay for lunch at your place?"

Li Shuning shook her head, "I ate before Little Sister Tao ca, after telling her, I fed the baby, she seed quite interested. Later, when the baby was about to sleep, I took him for a nap, and Little Sister Tao left. Once the baby was asleep, I didn’t feel like sleeping, so I ca out to clean."

Sister-in-law Ye had it figured out, that sling needed a large piece of fabric, and with the situation of Tao Family, they probably couldn’t bear it. So why did Tao Xiaoxiao co here, making an excuse that the fabric felt good? Even if the fabric didn’t feel good, they wouldn’t bear it, unless she thought to exploit the young sister’s kindness?

Usually, Tao Family’s kids are tossed on the ground, crawling around, what baby sling do they need?

Moreover, coming at ten and staying until the baby was about to sleep? Wasn’t it just to freeload a al?

It’s just that she ate before Tao Xiaoxiao ca; wouldn’t Tao Xiaoxiao think she was lying and thus hid outside, peeking?

Indeed, Eldest Sister-in-law Ye grasped the truth.

Tao Xiaoxiao simply didn’t believe. She was guided by so spirit to hide outside, actually wanting to see if this woman had one face for the public and another for private, eating so early; she didn’t believe it, yet unexpectedly ended up so embarrassed.

Eldest Sister-in-law Ye looked at Li Shuning, sowhat empathizing, holding onto Li Shuning’s hand, "Young Sister, it’s not that I’m being nosy. If I’ve said sothing you didn’t like, don’t take it to heart, okay?"

"Sister-in-law, what are you saying? You know, my husband is unable to co ho because of military duties, and I’m a reserved person; I’ve never dared to interact much. Being able to talk to you makes really happy."

Sister-in-law Ye felt comforted, this young sister really knew how to speak, "That Tao Xiaoxiao, her family’s condition is quite poor, people there tend to be a bit opportunistic. Sister-in-law knows, young sister’s condition is fine, I can tell just by seeing you grab candies for the kids, those candies are not cheap, you treat people sincerely, but don’t let opportunists exploit you."

Getting too close to the subject, Eldest Sister-in-law Ye didn’t say more.

Li Shuning thanked Sister-in-law Ye; she had released her spiritual power, affecting Sister-in-law Ye, precisely to achieve this effect. After sending Sister-in-law Ye off, Li Shuning finished cleaning the room and casually ate a few bites, washed the dishes, wondering whether after today’s incident, that woman would have the nerve to co again.

Due to this incident, Li Shuning and Sister-in-law Ye beca familiar with each other. Sister-in-law Ye would often bring her child to visit, and each ti, she wouldn’t co empty-handed, either hogrown fresh vegetables, or handmade children’s socks, or homade delicacies.

Li Shuning was never stingy; they reciprocated kindly, though she knew the living standards in the small town didn’t permit sending anything too expensive, else it would burden Sister-in-law Ye.

After being caught by Sister-in-law Ye and seen by Li Shuning, Tao Xiaoxiao didn’t show up for several days.

However, on the fifth day, Tao Xiaoxiao ca again.

This ti she brought her little niece along, arriving at nine in the morning.

Under the pretense that there was no one at ho and she lacked experience, she brought the child over to seek advice from Li Shuning.
