Su Tiantian was playing with her phone while watching Liu Jingze who was eating beef brisket noodles. He ate very quickly and was obviously hungry, but he was still polite. Next to Liu Jingze was Yun Suiyang who was also eating noodles. The two of them were busy until after three in the morning before they went to bed. How could they not be hungry?

Su Tiantian said, "It's past 10 o'clock now. You've had noodles. Are you still having lunch?"

Liu Jingze raised his head and said, "I guess I won't eat until later. When I woke up, it was already ten o'clock. I'm really hungry. I can't wait until noon to eat."

Sister Lan, wearing a purple apron, brought Su Tiantian a plate of seedless grapes and some cookies, and then said, "Mrs. Liu, see if you like it. If not, I'll prepare other snacks for you."

Liu Jingze said deliberately: "Sister Lan, you only care about Mrs. Liu. Shouldn't you ask me what I want to eat?"

Sister Lan said with an embarrassed look on her face, "Mr. Liu, I'm out buying groceries, and you asked Mrs. Liu to cook noodles for you. I feel bad about that, so of course I have to please Mrs. Liu first."

Su Tiantian said, "I just made two bowls of noodles. It was very simple. I just took lettuce, beef brisket and eggs from the refrigerator. I can't wait for you to come back to make them. They are hungry."

Sister Lan said, "Mrs. Liu, you're a good person and quick to act, but you're pregnant and you vomit sometimes, so it's better for you to stay out of the kitchen."

Su Tiantian picked up a few grapes and said, "I smelled the smell of cooking oil, but I didn't vomit. I just felt like eating something sour. I don't think these grapes are very tasty."

Sister Lan said, "We have some sour oranges. I'll give you two to try. We also have strawberries, which are sour and sweet. When you're pregnant, you sometimes like to eat sour and spicy foods."

Yun Suiyang said, "Actually, I can still make something as simple as making noodles. Mrs. Liu, let me do it next time."

Su Tiantian said, "I have no problem going to work, so what's wrong with going to the kitchen to make some noodles? You're too nervous. I sometimes cook for myself in the evening. I'm not as delicate as you think."

Liu Jingze said, "My wife Liu is indeed not a spoiled child. Will you accompany me to work later?"

Su Tiantian nodded: "Okay, I'm alone at home too, and I don't have any interest in shopping or anything like that. Besides, I have to go to work tomorrow, so today is a good time for me to accompany you."

After Sister Lan brought out the oranges and strawberries, she asked, "Mr. Liu, Mrs. Liu, are you having lunch here?"

Liu Jingze shook his head: "We will go back to the farm for lunch and eat there tonight. What vegetables did you buy?"

Sister Lan said, "Mr. Liu asked me to buy some lamb chops, lean pork, pork liver, and wolfberry leaves. If you're not eating at home, then leave them for Mrs. Liu to have as a midnight snack."

Su Tiantian became interested when she heard this: "Braised lamb chops or salt and pepper lamb chops? I want to eat them."

Sister Lan said, "It's all fine. I bought six kilograms."

Liu Jingze said, "How about this, don't wait until nightfall. Go cook the food now, and have the driver deliver it to the farm when it's ready. I'll have someone else prepare the midnight snack."

Sister Lan said, "Okay, then would you like some bird's nest stew? Or would Mrs. Liu like some dessert?"

Su Tiantian shook her head: "No need, we just had bird's nest yesterday, and Brother Jing said the farm is making osmanthus cake today."

Liu Jingze said, "Aren't lean meat, pork liver, and wolfberry leaves used to make soup? After making the soup, we can cook the lamb chops. If that's not enough, there are vegetables over at the farm."

Sister Lan asked, "How about half braised lamb chops and half salt and pepper?"

Su Tiantian said, "Do we have to do both? Wouldn't that be too much trouble?"

Sister Lan said, "It's not a big deal. I'll make whatever you want. It's not like I'm going to make ten or eight kinds of dishes, just two."

Sister Lan really didn't find it troublesome. She had been working here for four years, and the workload was actually not as much as she had imagined. The Liu family often didn't eat at home, and even if they did, they didn't necessarily ask her to cook many dishes.

For example, today, I only had to cook lunch, and I didn't have to cook dinner. I thought Mrs. Liu was pregnant and would have more work to do, but it turns out she's not a squeamish person and doesn't ask for too much.

Su Tiantian said, "Then let's cook half braised and half salt and pepper."

Liu Jingze said, "See how much you can eat, and then ask me and Ayang to eat some."

Su Tiantian said, "You guys are supposed to eat anyway, there's no reason. Just cook and let me eat alone. I also want the baked pork ribs with preserved plums. They're sour and sweet, tender and tasty, and I also want the hot and sour shredded potatoes."

Liu Jingze said, "Okay, we'll ask the kitchen staff to make it. You can take a look at what to bring to the farm. We'll be leaving soon."

Su Tiantian said, "I want to take some pork jerky, it's delicious."

Liu Jingze said, "You don't need to bring any pork jerky. We have some in the office. Sister Lan, pack some oranges and some strawberries."

Sister Lan immediately replied, "I understand, Mr. Liu."

Liu Jingze gently bent down and picked up Su Tiantian. Su Tiantian almost dropped her phone to the ground and said coquettishly, "Brother Jing, what are you doing?"

Liu Jingze said as a matter of course: "Carry you back to the room to get your things."

Su Tiantian quickly put her arms around Liu Jingze's neck and said a little embarrassedly, "I can walk by myself." Yun Suiyang was watching from the side.

Yun Suiyang then politely asked, "Mr. Liu, how about we take the elevator over there?"

The Liu family villa has an elevator, but Su Tiantian is usually used to taking the stairs. It’s only the third floor, and with Liu Jingze holding her, it’s indeed better to take the elevator.

Liu Jingze was about to answer when the phone rang. Su Tiantian said, "Brother Jing, put me down and answer the phone."

Liu Jingze didn't let go of Su Tiantian. At his signal, Yun Suiyang took out the phone from his trouser pocket and took a look: "It's Mr. Liu calling."

Of course he couldn't refuse to answer this call, so Liu Jingze had to gently put Su Tiantian down, picked up the phone and pressed the answer button.

"Good morning, Dad."

"I woke up at ten and just finished breakfast."

"I knew today wouldn't be a peaceful day. I'll go to the farm with Tiantian later. You can take care of my second uncle and cousin Hui first. We'll talk when there's anything."

"Dad, you'd rather go on a business trip, and so would I. No, I might have to go on a business trip for a few days. I'll discuss it with you later."

Liu Jingze talked on the phone while holding Su Tiantian's hand and walking upstairs.
