How to avoid unnecessary rebuilds while using provider in flutter?

Question

I am using provider in my app, but I faced with unnecessary building.

Example

class AllWidget extends StatelessWidget{

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context){
    print('state build called');
    return ChangeNotifierProvider(
            builder: (_) => MyCounter(),
            child: Column(children: <Widget>[
                  MyCounterText(),
                  MyIncreaseButton(),
                  MyDecreaseButton(),
            ],
          ),
    );
  }
}

class MyCounterText extends StatelessWidget{

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    final myCounter = Provider.of<MyCounter>(context, listen: false);
    print('MyCounterText');
    return Text(myCounter.num.toString());

  }
}

class MyIncreaseButton extends StatelessWidget{
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    final myCounter = Provider.of<MyCounter>(context, listen: false);
    print('MyIncreaseButton');
    return RaisedButton(
      child: Text('Increase +'),
      onPressed: ()=> myCounter.increment(),
    );

  }
}


class MyDecreaseButton extends StatelessWidget{
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    final myCounter = Provider.of<MyCounter>(context, listen: false);
    print('MyDecreaseButton');
    return RaisedButton(
      child: Text('Decrease -'),
      onPressed: ()=> myCounter.decrement(),
    );

  }
}

Now if I click on MyIncreaseButton widget, to inscrease the value, the MyDecreaseButton widget builds too, even when I dont click on it.

And vice versa, if I click on MyDecreaseButton widget, to descrease the value, the MyIncreaseButton widget builds too, even when I dont click on it.

My Expectation is:

When clicking MyIncreaseButton widget, MyDecreaseButton widget should not build.

I just avoided unnecessary rendering by editing my code as the following:

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:provider/provider.dart';
import 'package:flutter/foundation.dart';

class MyCounter with ChangeNotifier {
  int _num = 0;

  int get num => _num;

  set num(int n) {
    _num = n;
    notifyListeners();
  }

  void increaent() {
    _num = _num + 1;
    notifyListeners();
  }

  void decrement() {
    _num = _num - 1;
    notifyListeners();
  }
}

void main() {
  runApp(MyApp());
}

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    print('root build called');
    return ChangeNotifierProvider(
        builder: (context) => MyCounter(),
        child: MaterialApp(
          title: 'MyAppJan',
          home: Scaffold(
            appBar: AppBar(title: Text('Home')),
            body: AllWidget(),
          ),
          theme: ThemeData(primarySwatch: Colors.orange),
        ));
  }
}

class AllWidget extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    print('state build called');
    return Center(
      child: Column(
        children: <Widget>[
          MyCounterText(),
          SizedBox(height: 10),
          MyIncreaseButton(),
          SizedBox(height: 10),
          MyDecreaseButton(),
        ],
        mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
        mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min,
      ),
    );
  }
}

class MyCounterText extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    print('MyCounterText');
    return Consumer<MyCounter>(
      builder: (context, myCounter, _) {
        return Text(myCounter.num.toString());
      },
    );
  }
}

class MyIncreaseButton extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    final _items = Provider.of<MyCounter>(context,listen: false);
    print('MyIncreaseButton');
    return RaisedButton(
      child: Text('Increase ++'),
      onPressed: () => _items.increment(),
    );
  }
}

class MyDecreaseButton extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    final _items = Provider.of<MyCounter>(context,listen: false);
    print('MyDecreaseButton');
    return RaisedButton(
      child: Text('Decrease --'),
      onPressed: () => _items.decrement(),
    );
  }
}
