Regarding Hairstyles
After the children grew up, they could transform into human form, and the first thing they did was grow long hair.
Over time, each cub grew beautiful, smooth long hair and tied it in the same braid style as Song Yiran.
Now, everyone in the household except Xiao Zhong’er had the same hairstyle.
Xiao Zhong’er thought: …Do I feel a bit out of place?
However, he still liked his high ponytail, so he kept it, not changing just to fit in.
Each cub tried to resemble Song Yiran in appearance as closely as possible.
One day, Song Xianyue suddenly had a brilliant idea. He dotted a beauty mark under his left eye, then proudly showed it off to his friends: “Ta-da! I now have the same teardrop mole as my brother~”
Naturally, everyone else followed suit, each putting a teardrop mole on their own faces, just so they could resemble Song Yiran a little more.
About Song Xiaolv
At first, Song Xiaolv’s body was quite ordinary—not fat, not thin. But as time went on, its figure gradually became rounder…
Because it had lived with everyone for so long, no one really noticed the changes in its body—until one day, Xiao Zhong’er suddenly flipped through old photos of Song Xiaolv and was shocked to discover:
Song Xiaolv had now become as round as a ball!
No exaggeration—its whole body was perfectly spherical. If you accidentally gave it a push, it could roll across the floor like a little rolling ball.
Immediately, Song Yiran made a decision: “We’re starting a weight-loss plan for Song Xiaolv!”
From that day on, everyone found ways to help Song Xiaolv slim down. Song Yiran reduced its daily snacks, allowing it only three proper meals a day.
Song An practiced boxing with Song Xiaolv daily to help it build self-discipline, Song Xianyue took it for daily walks around the yard, Song Yuexin…
Eventually, Song Xiaolv successfully lost weight and returned to a healthy level—truly a cause for celebration!
About Dried Fruit and Jam
Whenever the fruit trees in the yard bore fruit, it meant one thing: time to make dried fruit and jam.
Song Yiran would pick the best-looking fruits to make dried fruit, while slightly imperfect fruits were used for jam.
During this time, Xiao Zhong’er and the cubs would all join in the fruit-picking efforts.
Xiao Zhong’er’s efficiency was… questionable. He’d eat three fruits for every two he picked. The fruit trees practically owed him a few fruits!
He’d circle the trees picking fruit, yet not a single one made it out of his stomach.
The cubs, on the other hand, were a little better. Some were very diligent, picking quickly and well. Others ate one out of every three fruits but still left at least two—better than Xiao Zhong’er.
After the fruits were washed, Song Yiran would peel and chop some to sun-dry into dried fruit. The rest went into making jam.
Dried fruit required long hours in the sun, so whenever they had free time, the cubs would sit nearby, watching the fruits slowly dry, salivating in anticipation.
Jam-making was simpler: washed fruit went into a pot with a “lethal” amount of sugar, simmered until it turned into sweet, thick jam.
The jam could be eaten directly, spread on bread, or poured over shaved ice to make fruity slushies.
About Summer, Wind Chimes, Barbecue, Popsicles, and Jam Slushies
One summer, Song Yiran sat quietly outside the corridor, gazing at the deep blue sky and white clouds, feeling the breeze brush his hair.
Then he realized something was missing—what was it? Ah, the wind chimes!
How could summer be without wind chimes?
He brought a beautiful crystal bell wind chime and hung it under the eaves of the corridor.
Whenever the wind blew, the chimes jingled merrily. The crystal bells danced in the sunlight, refracting dazzling rainbow-colored light.
Song Yiran sat contentedly under the corridor, listening to the wind chimes’ music.
Summer nights always called for barbecue.
Song Yiran set up a grill in the yard. The coals burned brightly, skewers sizzled, and hot oil dripping onto the coals made a “sizzle” sound that was music to his ears.
Xiao Zhong’er was already drooling nearby, and the cubs stared hungrily at the skewers.
The first summer, Song Yiran grilled while Xiao Zhong’er and the cubs ate.
The second summer, the same.
…
By the tenth summer, Song Yiran grilled with the cubs, and Xiao Zhong’er still ate.
…
By the eighteenth summer, the cubs took over grilling entirely.
Song Yiran and Xiao Zhong’er sat back, sipping tea and chatting, though Xiao Zhong’er’s eyes kept sneaking toward the skewers.
Every summer, barbecues in the yard became a family tradition, always at dusk. By the time the food was ready, night had fallen, stars twinkling above.
Cool night breezes brushed their faces, the day’s heat faded, hands held fragrant skewers, and they sat surrounded by family.
Song Yiran sighed with contentment:
“Ah, this is what life is about!”
Every summer, they also made popsicles and jam slushies.
The first time Song Xianyue tried a popsicle, his tongue stuck to it. Song Yiran quickly poured warm water on it to free him. After that, he always bit popsicles instead of licking them.
Jam slushies were popular in summer: icy cold, topped with sweet-and-tart jam, impossible to stop eating.
One spoonful could erase the day’s heat, leaving one feeling spiritually refreshed.
About Mushroom Screams
Every winter, Song Yiran prepared steaming hot hotpot. Once, while cooking, Song Fu lifted a mushroom from the pot, only for its cap to stick to the pot wall.
Everyone heard it scream:
“Ahhhhh—”
About Sneaking Snacks at Midnight
Everyone probably had a night sneaking to the kitchen for a snack after staying up late playing games.
During a summer of his youth, Song Yinyun stayed up gaming until 1 a.m. His stomach rumbled:
“Gurrrr—”
He had two choices: ignore it and sleep, or quietly sneak to the kitchen. He chose the latter.
Tiptoeing to the fridge, he found a cake and reached for it.
While happily munching, Xiao Zhong’er also appeared, hungry in the middle of the night.
They exchanged a knowing look. Song Yinyun split the cake in half:
“I heard this cake wants to be eaten by both of us.”
Xiao Zhong’er grinned and accepted it:
“Hehe, I heard it too! Let’s reluctantly fulfill its wish~”
About Autumn Shedding and Static Electricity
Before the cubs matured, autumn was a nightmare. They shed fur constantly and were prone to static shocks.
Fur would be everywhere: beds, blankets, even the floor.
Static would make them puff up like dandelions, especially after rubbing their heads on blankets.
A bump during play could produce two dandelions!
This only eased once they reached adulthood. Mature cubs would shift into human form every autumn to survive the season.
About Autumn and Roasted Sweet Potatoes
Autumn wasn’t all bad. Song Yiran would roast sweet potatoes in the yard.
He built a simple outdoor stove, placed the sweet potatoes inside, lit a fire, and patiently waited.
Roasting required attention: too much heat would char the skin, too little would leave them undercooked.
The first time, he burned the surfaces, but the insides remained soft and orange-red.
They all feasted on sweet, fragrant sweet potatoes. Xiao Zhong’er ate the most, face blackened with soot, but belly full and burping sweet potato-flavored hiccups.
