Chapter 45: Family
"Okay, I'll give you something to eat." The woman looked at her child lovingly, and gave him a little in a spoon.
The baby's fleshy cheeks rolled a few times and then laughed: "It's delicious!" It's much better than Daddy's cooking! β
There was laughter all around. The middle-aged man's face was a little red: "What are you talking about, little rabbit cub, can the thing your father make compare to the girl's egg pudding!" β
The child covered his head and closed his eyes and shouted: "When the little sister is born, the baby will eat the food cooked by the mother!" β
The laughter was louder.
"Daddy cooks at home?" Someone asked the kid with a smile.
"Daddy said that it was very hard for my mother to be pregnant with her little sister! Dad is afraid that his mother will be tired, so he cooks! But the baby wants to eat the food cooked by his mother! The more the child spoke, the redder the middle-aged man's face became, but he couldn't say a word in his daughter-in-law's chuckle.
"This Brother Baozhu really loves his daughter-in-law......"
Lin Jinxiu stood not far away and smiled at their family, wondering if Lele would be as cute as this child when he grew up.
It would be nice to find Lele's father, she thought.
Although there is absolutely no problem with taking care of the child by himself, the father's love for the child cannot be ignored, but it is ......
Forget it, the man who ran away after bullying the little girl without being responsible is probably not a good thing, and it is useless to find it.
It is estimated that he can only be angry with himself half to death, so it is better to think about how to supplement Lele with this missing father's love.
"What, the shopkeeper's envy?" Just when Lin Jinxiu was thinking, Huai Yanqing appeared behind her with a look of ridicule.
"Envy a ghost." Lin Jinxiu glanced at him, "I'm just wondering, if Lele grows up, will he be bullied because he doesn't have a father......"
"So, where is your husband?" Huai Yanqing asked.
"If the ghost knows, there should be no such person." Lin Jinxiu said this, she was really embarrassed to say that she was unmarried and pregnant.
Seeing that the topic was about to run to her personal privacy, she kicked the ball back to Huai Yanqing's feet: "It's you, do you want to marry a daughter-in-law?" Do you want me to find one for you? β
Huai Yanqing rarely didn't joke, just shook his head: "No, I'm looking for someone, when I find her, I will marry her." β
"Oh, it turns out that there is someone in my heart." The corners of Lin Jinxiu's lips hooked, "If you find it, remember to invite me to drink wine." β
"When I find it, maybe the wedding will have to be held in your shop." Huai Yanqing smiled evilly.
"You're thinking beautifully." Lin Jinxiu leaned on the bar, "Earn your own money to build a house, and my store won't give it to you." β
After breakfast, the full shopkeepers and croppers dispersed, and the shop suddenly became much more relaxed.
Lin Jinxiu worked hard to record the meal money he had just received, and went to the space for a while.
Today, these eggs are sent out, and the satisfaction value is probably a lot.
Look at the situation and find a way to rush to the third level, it is estimated that there will be good things to take.
It's like playing a management game! Lin Jinxiu complained about herself.
The batch of accounts in the morning was finally settled, Lin Jinxiu looked left and right and saw that everyone was busy and no one paid attention to him, so he went into his own space to check the situation.
The corn planted in the corn field yesterday has not yet grown, only half a man tall, swaying its green stems and leaves shining in the sun, it seems that it will have to wait until the evening to grow well, this is not in a hurry.
Open the mall, Lin Jinxiu to view his personal information.
γPlayer Lin Jinxiu Lv.2 (1950/2000)
Satisfaction value: 220
Item Package: 2/10
Corn stalk x15, egg x6γ
Well? 1950οΌ Lin Jinxiu looked at her satisfaction and felt a little anxious.
It's just 50 XP to get to level 3, but you have to wait until tomorrow.
Lin Jinxiu touched her chin and thought.
There is a lot of satisfaction left, and tomorrow's corn flour is enough, do you want to buy two corn seeds?
Anyway, you can get it back in one day, and by the way, you can add up the satisfaction value to do it.
As for the points of the Holy Spirit Pot, it is estimated that it is not enough, so let's save it slowly.
Saying that, Lin Jinxiu went to the mall to buy two corn seeds, and in an instant, his satisfaction value fell to a few levels.
This is the first time I have two corn seeds at the same time.
Lin Jinxiu held two small round seeds in one hand and sighed a little.
There will be more and more in the future, and this is a good start.
Stuffing the corn seeds into his backpack, Lin Jinxiu, who was ready to plan, stepped out of the space and waited for today's corn to ripen.
The first day of the store ended peacefully.
From morning to night, except for being tired, the rest was very smooth.
Dinner was made by Aunt Li.
In order to treat everyone, she went to the market to buy vegetables and fish and worked in the kitchen.
"I'm so tiredβ" Ning Er, who was sitting on Lin Jinxiu's left, cushioned her chin with her hands, and her eyes were almost completely closed.
She had been steaming in the kitchen for a whole day, and she was already sweating all over, and even her hair was sticking to her face, and she couldn't get it off no matter how she grinned to the side, "I want to take a shower......
Huai Yanqing has not touched the ground since the morning, and even the internal force has been lifted for a whole day, although he is only lifting his qi to maintain his own body, but he can't withstand such a length of time, and now he is facing the situation of empty internal force and lack of energy.
Since closing the door of the store, sitting on Lin Jinxiu's right, he seems to have not drunk water for hundreds of years, and the whole pot of tea added to his stomach is fast going into his stomach.
"After eating, I washed and went to sleep." Lin Jinxiu didn't raise his head.
Since she doesn't know how to use an abacus, Lin Jinxiu's calculations are all vertical pen calculations, and the tip of the pen rustles, "And you, don't drink so much water, you won't be able to eat for a while." β
"I'm hungry...... Ning'er shouted into the kitchen, "Grandma-when will the meal be ready, Ning'er is hungry!" β
Aunt Li's voice came from the kitchen along with the aroma of food: "Wait a little longer, it'll be fine for a while!" β
"Okay...... Ning'er was really hungry, puffing out her cheeks and playing with her fingers, "Brother Huai is hungry?" β
Huai Yanqing shook his head.
"Brother Huai is so powerful, I'm not hungry after a busy day." Ning Er looked at him, "If I know martial arts, wouldn't I be hungry easily?" β
Could it be that there is something to do with martial arts and not being able to get hungry? Huai Yanqing didn't understand this little girl's brain circuit at all.
On the contrary, Lin Jinxiu dismantled the stage: "This has nothing to do with martial arts, if you pour a stomach of water, you won't be hungry." β
This sentence is true, Huai Yanqing agreed with Lin Jinxiu's statement, and put the teapot with a bottom of water left in front of Ning Er, making a gesture of please.
Ning Er took the pot and really poured herself a cup of tea: "Ah, I thought that people who knew martial arts didn't need to eat, that's what the storyteller said, eat ass balls!" β
Burst. As soon as Ning Er's words came out, the water in Huai Yanqing's mouth squirted out, choking him and coughing constantly.
Lin Jinxiu laughed so much that she couldn't write, and the whole person lay on the table and kept twitching.
"Huh? Any questions? Ning'er didn't realize what she said wrong.
"It's Bigu Dan." Lin Jinxiu laughed for a long time before she got up, and tears came out.
She couldn't hide the smile on her face, corrected Ning'er's mispronunciation, and wrote those words to her, "It's not an ass." β
"I see." Ning Er nodded seriously.
She used to be curious, why people who practice martial arts don't have to eat after eating butt balls, it turns out that it is not the same thing.
Seeing that Huai Yanqing was still coughing, Lin Jinxiu reached out and patted him on the back, and poured him a glass of water again: "It's okay for you." β
Huai Yanqing, who took the water, drank it all, and finally stopped coughing, and tears were squeezed out: "No, cough, it's okay." β
"It's a good meal!" At this moment, Aunt Li walked out with a sumptuous dish and put it in their usual eating place.
When I looked up, I saw that Lin Jinxiu and Huai Yanqing's eyes were actually a little tear-stained, "What's wrong with you two?" Quarreled? Why are you crying? β
"No, no, laughed." Lin Jinxiu explained.
"Cough, choking out ......" Huai Yanqing also explained to himself.
When Aunt Li went to the kitchen to serve a few remaining dishes, Lin Jinxiu and the others glanced at each other, and with a bang, the three of them jumped to the table in various ways to watch the dishes made by Aunt Li.
"Braised pork!" Ning Er's eyes were shining, and her saliva was about to flow into the plate.
The braised pork on the plate was not the sauce red in Lin Jinxiu's impression, but a little black.
Although it doesn't look good, the sweetness can't be ignored.
Aunt Li brought rice to these people, and saw that the three of them came close to look at the dishes, and were a little embarrassed: "Auntie's dishes are not good, you can make do with them." β
"Grandma, isn't braised pork only eaten during the Chinese New Year?" Huai Yanqing pointed to the braised pork and asked.
Two days ago, he called Aunt Li Auntie, and then he listened to Lin Jinxiu and Ning'er calling grandma all day long, and after getting used to it, he also shouted once, but he didn't expect Aunt Li to be very happy to hear it, so he also called with them.
Aunt Li wiped her hands clean and explained: "Yanqing, Sister Xiu'er, don't you know, since Ning'er's father left, grandma and Ning'er have never celebrated the New Year. Opened today, grandma is happy, just pass the year! β
"Long live Grandma!" With braised pork to eat, Ning'er shouted happily.
Aunt Li gently tapped on her head: "What long live, you can't talk nonsense, only the emperor can shout long live, understand?" β
"Got it, hee-hee." The little girl doesn't care about the emperor, as long as her grandmother is happy, she can do anything.
It didn't take long for most of the dishes on the table to be swept away by three young men who had been tired all day.
Except for the plate in front of Aunt Li that was piled up by a few people, there was only one piece of braised pork left, and there was not a single green vegetable left.
"Hey!" Ning Er stretched out her chopsticks vigorously and put them on the chopsticks that Huai Yanqing stretched out to the last piece of braised pork.
The corners of Huai Yanqing's mouth hooked, the tips of the chopsticks flicked, and the remaining piece of meat actually turned around and turned to Lin Jinxiu's side.
"Oh, you're welcome." Lin Jinxiu stretched out her chopsticks and clip.
"Think beautifully." Huai Yanqing's fingers escaped from Ning'er's control with his pair of chopsticks and grabbed Lin Jinxiu's chopsticks.
Ning Er also giggled and joined the battle group, taking turns with one chopstick in one hand.
It's a pity that Huai Yanqing is not only skilled, but the dexterity of his fingers also exceeds the expectations of the two.
The chopsticks changed the angle and direction like a flower in his hand, and the braised pork seemed to have a consciousness, following his chopsticks back and forth in the plate, very obedient.
"You're amazing!" Lin Jinxiu was attracted by his chopsticks kung fu, "Ning'er, on!" Can't let him grab the meat! β
This turned into four chopsticks against two, and Aunt Li moved slightly outside to give Ning Er room to play, and couldn't stop laughing.
