Chapter 129 Dad is the Best
Chapter 129 Dad is the Best
With more people at home, those who already know how to cook can learn it even faster. Apart from a few big dishes that require the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to prepare, the rest of the time is free.
Mrs. He sat leisurely on the stool, sipping her tea, watching her own shop running in an orderly manner without any problems.
I couldn't help but sigh: "This life is so good, Ning'er is right. Make money well and enjoy life well. Only this kind of life is meaningful."
"If Ning'er hadn't come back home, even if the family was rich, she would still be a miser and spend every penny with two ends."
Xu, who was sitting on the side, also felt that her current life was like a dream, too good to be true. She nodded dumbly and said, "Mother is right, Ning'er is the smartest, otherwise we wouldn't be able to rent a shop."
After working for many days, she felt uncomfortable all over. Xu smiled and asked, "Ning'er, is there anything you want to eat? I'll make it for you today."
Xia Yining wanted to say something to persuade him, but he saw his mother and sister-in-law looking at him eagerly, as if to ask him to speak quickly. He held his forehead helplessly.
The little finger pointed to the backyard door and said, "I want to make a grill so I can bake a lot of food. It's so delicious~!"
He was delighted when he heard this and said with a smile: "The oven is simple. I have learned how to make it from the villagers. After it is done, let it air dry for two days and it will be able to be used for many years.
She didn't expect that her silly big brother could do so many things. She clapped her hands in support and praised loudly: "Wow~~~ Big brother is amazing. He knows everything. He is the best in the world~!!"
Old Man He: “!!”
He glanced at his eldest son coldly, wishing he could kick him away. He turned around and said with a smile, "Dad can do it, and he can do it better than your eldest brother. The oven will last until Dad dies."
Xia Yining: “…”
She was stunned for a moment, then said with an expression that was hard to describe: "Dad, there is no need to say that. Ning'er believes that you and big brother are both equally good."
Everyone: “·······”
Although I have seen many members of the He family vying for Miss Ning'er's favor, I always gain new insights every time. I have to say that Uncle He is really amazing.
Especially Xi Zhiyi, his gentle face would crack from time to time, and his mouth seemed to be hesitant to speak, but now he has become numb and his acceptance level is getting better and better.
As if they were competing with each other, the father and son were about to go outside the town to collect soil with their backpacks. When Zhou Tao's grandfather and father saw them, they hurried forward to carry the things and said, "I will do the work of carrying soil. You two masters can rest at home."
Hearing this, Old Man He couldn't help but frowned and said, "Old Zhou, there is no such thing as a slave in the family. It sounds harsh."
The man called Lao Zhou is Zhou Tao's grandfather. He is about the same age as Old Man He. Xia Yining has never been able to accept the fact that he is a grandfather at the age of around 40. If calculated in this way, he had children very early.
Old Zhou smiled naively, always remembering Nanny Gui's private advice, and said honestly: "It's better to have some rules. Since you are sold to the master's family, you are a servant. There's nothing wrong with eating delicious food and drinking spicy drinks all day long."
After saying that, he looked at his son and said, "Look at that naughty boy Xiao Zhou. He has gained weight on his face in just a few days. Life is really easy now."
No matter how Old Man He tried to persuade him, Old Zhou insisted on calling himself that. He had no choice but to let them go. He only reminded them to be careful and to go early and come back early.
Zhou Tao, who had been staying by Xia Yining's side, had always been well-behaved since she came home. She would prepare warm water for Xia Yining to wash at night, and she would be waiting for him at the door when he woke up. All of this was directed by the two maids behind her.
Just like now, she was standing behind her obediently and fanning herself, and just smiling at her grandfather and father. Xia Yining felt that she was not like a child, but more like an adult in her body.
Unable to help but shiver her little body, Zhou Tao moved her fanning hand away a little and asked hurriedly, "But my hand is too close? Miss, do you feel cold?"
Unexpectedly, she was so sensitive. Xia Yining quickly shook his head, took her hand and said, "Sit down and rest for a while. It's not particularly hot now. Don't be so dull at such a young age."
While pressing her down hard on the stool, Zhou Tao was worried about hurting her hands, so he sat down on the stool a little bit, with his back straight, looking at his young lady with bright eyes. Her facial features were so delicate.
If she were a little whiter, she would definitely be a great beauty.
When she first arrived at the He family, she was embarrassed to stare at the young lady every day. Until she was caught drooling at the young lady several times, she started to give up and just stared at her from time to time.
I just feel that my mood is much better, and I can't help but want to laugh silly.
Everyone in the family knew that Zhou Tao was a cheerful person. Seeing her expression, they couldn't help but smile and stuffed a piece of cake into her hand. Mrs. He said, "Try it. Ning'er likes sweet snacks the most."
Zhou Taoxian quickly put her hands behind her back, shook her head and said: "I won't eat it, save it for the young lady, hehehe..."
Xia Yining looked at her swallowing her saliva and smiling foolishly, and reluctantly stuffed it into her hand and said, "Eat it. You can't refuse the reward from the young lady."
Even though Zhou Tao was young, she had understood the master's way of speaking in the past few days. The old lady and the young lady were always trying to find ways to feed her food, as if they were afraid that she would starve if she ate less.
She took it respectfully with both hands and said, "Thank you for the reward, young lady."
When Zhou Tao's grandmother and mother saw this scene from the kitchen window, their hands moved more skillfully and they couldn't stop smiling. They were grateful to the host and wanted to do the job well.
Fortunately, there were a few grown men in the backyard. When they started working, Xia Yining described the appearance of the oven. Hearing this, Boss He said, "It's not a big problem. Just make some minor changes."
"Don't worry, little sister. Big brother will definitely make the best oven for you." As soon as she finished speaking, she was slapped on the head by Old Man He, and after thinking about it, she kicked him again.
He said angrily: "The little one is gone, and the big one is left. They are all competing with me for my favor at home. It's really infuriating."
"You have such little craftsmanship, yet you have the nerve to show off in front of my little girl. You are so shameless."
Boss He: “???”
He looked confused. What happened to his craft? His craft is pretty good. Dad...
Old Man He squatted in front of Xia Yining and said loudly, "My little girl, your big brother is not very skilled. He is OK at playing in the mud at home, but dad is definitely the best at big jobs like baking ovens."
"Don't worry, Ning'er. Dad will definitely make you the biggest and most beautiful oven today."
Xia Yining: “!!”
He was very smart and didn't refute. He just nodded and said, "Yeah, Daddy is the best. He can definitely make the best oven in the world."
