Chen Meng’er didn’t care whether her two brothers knew the value of the ginseng or not. She didn’t have the time to teach them about it now. After she showed her two brothers the ginseng in her hand, she took out a square cloth bag that she folded in her pocket.

Chen Haoguo and Chen Haoxuan could tell from the cloth bag in Chen Meng’er’s hands that this was the only cloth bag in their family. Their mother, Liu Juan, was so careful that every time Chen Haoxuan wanted to borrow it to store something, his mother refused.

But now, this cloth bag was in the hands of their younger sister, Chen Meng’er. Moreover, their younger sister, Chen Meng’er, actually put the ginseng that was stained with mud directly into the cloth bag.

Chen Haoguo, Chen Haoxuan, and the others wanted to stop their younger sister Chen Meng’er’s movements, but who would have thought that this three-year-old child’s movements would be so nimble. Before the two of them could open their mouths... Chen Meng’er had already put the ginseng into the cloth bag.

“Meng’er, why is mother’s cloth bag with you?” Chen Haoguo asked.

Chen Haoxuan continued his brother’s words, he said, “Meng’er, how can you put ginseng with soil in this cloth bag? Do you know how much mom treasures this cloth bag? When we go back, if she sees you, just wait to be scolded.”

Chen Meng’er put the cloth bag of ginseng in her hands and carried it carefully; at the same time, she answered the questions of her two brothers. “I borrowed this bag from mom to store things. Mom won’t scold me. Mom dotes on me the most. Moreover, I’ve already told mom before that I want to use this cloth bag to store things. Mom has agreed.” What Chen Meng’er didn’t say in her heart was that, not only would her mother not scold her because she dirtied the cloth bag. She would even praise her.

When Chen Haoxuan heard Chen Meng’er’s words, he thought of how much his parents doted on his sister and looked at the cloth bag in his sister’s hand. He couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. They were both children of this family, how could their treatment be so bad? He couldn’t even borrow this cloth bag. And his sister had easily obtained this cloth bag with just a word.

Chen Haoguo didn’t have as many feelings as Chen Haoxuan. He heard his sister Chen Meng’er say that she had borrowed this bag from their mother. Then there wouldn’t be any problems. This matter would end here.

“Let’s go out quickly. It’s not very safe in this forest.” Chen Haoguo looked at the lush forest and said to his brother and sister.

“Okay, let’s go out.” Chen Haoxuan also looked around. He thought of what his parents had told them before and nodded in agreement.

Then, the two brothers did not wait for Chen Meng’er’s consent. They each held Chen Meng’er’s hand. When Chen Haoguo held Chen Meng’er’s hand... he also picked up the cloth bag containing the ginseng in her hand.

Chen Meng’er looked at the cloth bag. He threatened, “You have to hold on to it. If you drop it, I’ll cry.”

“I know, I’ll hold on to it tightly.” Even if Chen Meng’er didn’t say it, Chen Haoguo would hold on to it tightly. However, what he valued was different from Chen Meng’er. What he valued was the cloth bag containing the ginseng. That was their only cloth bag, and it was also her mother’s baby.

Chen Meng’er did not care about what her big brother valued. After she got the answer she wanted, she held her big brother and second brother’s hands in satisfaction and walked back.

As they walked, Chen Meng’er suddenly said, “Can you promise me one thing?”
