Amelia frowned and found it even harder to understand. “Then why did Second
Aunt get pregnant with Brother Harper? Does Second Uncle like Second Aunt?”
Dylan shook his head. “I don’t think so.”
Amelia: She stared at Dylan. Dylan felt a chill run down his spine and asked, “What’s wrong?
Amelia asked seriously, “Second Uncle doesn’t like Second Aunt, but Second Uncle and Second Aunt gave birth to Brother Harper and Sister Emma. Is Second Uncle the sc.u.mbag that others are talking about?”
Dylan opened his mouth but did not say anything.
Dylan patted him understandingly and comforted him. “It’s alright, Second
Uncle. Mia understands.”
Dylan: What did she understand? No… Dylan was about to speak when Eric arrived and shouted, “Mia, Fifth Uncle’s good baby, let Fifth Uncle hug you!’ He did not even take off the helmet on his head. He was sweating profusely and reached out to hug Amelia.
Dylan slapped his hand away. “Aren’t you dirty?”
Eric did not care. He picked up Amelia and laughed. “Mia, tell Fifth Uncle. Aren’t you bored here? Let’s go. Fifth Uncle will bring you to the construction site to play!” He had just gone to the construction site to do an inspection. After it was over, the first thing he wanted to do was to bring his precious niece to show off to his colleagues.
When Dylan heard this, he disagreed even more. “What kind of place is the construction site? It’s too dangerous. Mia can’t go.”
Eric waved his hand. “Nonsense. Mia already said that it’s not dangerous where Uncle is.”
Amelia nodded in agreement. “Yes, it’s not dangerous.” She had to go to the construction site. The ugly auntie had just said that her second aunt had gone to the construction site to look at the bronze statue. There seemed to be something hidden in the bronze statue, so she had to find it.
In an instant, Eric was happy. He carried Amelia and walked over. When he saw someone, he wanted to show off. “Look, this is my niece. Isn’t she good-looking? Isn’t she cute?”
Amelia was speechless. After being flaunted a few times in a row, she was embarra.s.sed! Seeing her covering her face shyly, everyone laughed.
Eric’s heart was about to melt. Therefore, in everyone’s eyes, the irritable Eric had transformed into a gentle man when he hugged Amelia. It was really too shocking!
Soon, they arrived at the construction site. Although Eric muttered that it was not dangerous, he still knew his limits. He did not let Amelia into the building that was under construction. Their current location was the bronze statue plaza that had already been paved. Eric said, “This plaza is almost completed. There’s a children’s amus.e.m.e.nt park over there. Let’s go. Fifth Uncle will bring you to play.” Just as he finished speaking, he pointed at the tall building that was under construction opposite and said, “That is an office building under construction. The place beside it that looks like a big foot is a shopping mall. There’s a large supermarket under it. These were all built by Fifth Uncle. Isn’t it impressive?”
Amelia nodded with certainty. “Impressive!”
Eric was instantly delighted. Amelia pointed at the sculpture in the center of the square and asked, “Fifth Uncle, what’s that?”
Eric took a look. “That’s a statue in the shape of a phoenix. It’s a trinket designed by your second uncle.”
Amelia broke free from Eric and ran over. Eric hurriedly chased after her. “Mia, don’t run around. It’s dangerous.”
Amelia ran to the statue. “Fifth Uncle, do you have a hammer? Can you give one to Mia?”
Eric thought that Amelia was curious and wanted to knock on the statue. Coincidentally, he was in engineering and had many tools in his hands. “Mia, it’s not that I’m bragging to you, but if you want to talk about who has the most complete construction tools in the country, it’s definitely your Fifth Uncle!
Fifth Uncle has 4,000 hammers!”
Dylan chased after them from behind. When he saw the workers pulling a cart with all kinds of hammers on it, he was instantly speechless. “What are they doing?
Amelia looked up, her face red. “Looking at hammers!”
Dylan:
Eric stood in front of Amelia and introduced these tools. “This is a woodworking hammer, and that is a stoneworking hammer… He got someone to bring over small hammers that could be held by Amelia.
Dylan was speechless. He watched as Amelia held this hammer and weighed it a few times with a serious expression. She was indeed… looking at hammers.
Elmer floated in the air and pointed at Amelia. “Mia, take this hammer and dismantle this bronze statue!”
Amelia: “…Master, I don’t think I can carry it.” This hammer looked heavy..
