Doted by My Seven Brothers novel Chapter 6

Chapter 6 Childish Grandpa and Dad

Nancy's sweet voice was like the candy to the ears, and a few adults were standing on the side happily, watching the little girl teaching the cat and the dog a lesson like a grownup.

After babbling with the two fluffy pets till their ears were drooping, Nancy remembered that dad and grandpa were still there, and suddenly blushed with shyness.

"Hahaha... Our Nancy is really amazing."

The Elderly Mr. Brook couldn't help laughing when he saw Nancy being shy.

Nancy hugged Harley and buried her whole little face in its fur. Harley took a shower just yesterday, so its fur smelled kind of sweet.

"Nancy, are you still going out to play?" James teased her.

"Yes, I am," the little girl raised her face and answered with a soft voice.

She walked to her dad and grandpa with her short legs, put down Harley, and continued to walk while holding their hands.

The cat and the dog are supposed to be very vigilant in this unfamiliar environment, but now that they saw Nancy, they gradually let go of their vigilance and started wandering around to mark the site.

Adolph ran around excitedly, wagging its tail and barking cheerfully from time to time, while Harley was more reserved and quiet. Harley only lightly jumped on the fence or the tree a few times, looking at that stupid dog hopping around with condescending eyes.

"Nancy, this is the garden. How about grandpa making a swing there for you?"

Nancy blinked and was reminded that the children in the village liked to go to the thick vines of the red bayberry tree the most when they used to hang out in the forest. They said it was a swing, and they stood on it and hung in the air, which looked a bit dangerous yet very fun.

At that time, she was busy picking up firewood as well as some grass for the chickens and ducks at home to eat, so she just glanced enviously from a distance and left.

"Okay," Nancy nodded and replied with a soft voice and her clear smiling eyes.

Hearing her answer, the adults in the family were all happy, and eagerly took her hand and began to plan in this garden, such as a slide here, a small wooden horse, or a sandpit there, all of which were the things that children would like. It was like they were trying to transform this garden into an amusement park.

Nancy waved her hand quickly, "No, no, just a swing will do."

Showing only one little finger, she said to her dad and grandpa with anticipation, "Is that... okay?"

Nancy's dad took a deep breath and stroked Nancy's fluffy little head.

"Nancy, you don't have to be so careful. You are the precious of our family. You can tell your parents or grandpa whatever you want. We will never dislike you for asking for so much."

He actually knew the reason why Nancy was so cautious. But it was because of knowing that he felt sad. This child should have grown up in this family carefree.

Nancy raised her little face with her small hands grabbing her dad's broad palm. Her brows and eyes were like the most beautiful little crescent moon in the world, and those clear and translucent eyes shone with dazzling stars.

"But I already feel very satisfied," She said softly while rubbing her fluffy head on her dad's palm slightly.

"I am already very happy. I have daddy, mommy, grandpa, and brothers. I am very very happy."

This was something she never dared to think about before.

Windy came over and touched Nancy's little head with moist eyes and thought to herself, "How sweet her Nancy is!"
