Chapter 22 An An is unhappy
An An had been secretly looking at this beautiful sister. When he heard her gentle voice, he felt less scared.
I couldn't help but raise my head and look over there with my big round eyes. Although I felt resistance in my heart, my body moved towards her involuntarily.
While Lin Xia was chatting, she had already noticed the little guy's sneak glances and couldn't help but be curious, but her face was full of loneliness and worry.
If the cute look of the little guy made her overflow with maternal love, then the cautious and worried look now seemed to make Lin Xia see her past self. When her parents divorced, they secretly refused to tell Lin Xia who would take care of her in front of both families, but they had no idea that Lin Xia was hiding in the room and heard everything clearly.
The two of them tried to refuse each other, but their grandparents couldn't bear to see them quarreling with each other, so grandma got angry and gave an order. In the end, Lin Xia followed her grandparents to live in the countryside.
The frightened look on the little guy's face now is completely different from his past self.
Seeing the little guy coming towards her, Lin Xia's heart softened. She gently picked up the little guy and put him on her lap.
Ask softly: "Do you want to eat egg cake or peach cake?"
An An felt confused in her small head. The fat boy next door told her that her father was going to find a stepmother for her soon.
When she has a stepmother, she will be beaten and scolded all day long. Her stepmother will not give her food. Her father will not like her and will only like the child born to her stepmother.
She has been worried for several days ever since she heard her father say he was getting married.
But this elder sister hugged her gently and gave her delicious food.
For a moment, An An didn't know who to believe, and her little hand couldn't help but point at the egg cake.
Lin Xia picked up the golden egg cake and handed it to An An.
When An An saw the egg cake in front of her, her little mouth couldn't help but blink a few times. She looked at her father and was a little afraid to take it.
Lu Yuxiu smiled and nodded at An An.
Seeing his daughter looking at the egg cake eagerly but not daring to reach out to take it, and the look in her eyes when she turned to look at him, Lu Yuxiu couldn't help but feel distressed.
When An An saw his father nod, he carefully picked up the pastry and started eating.
Children have small mouths, and the egg cake is soft and sweet. Lin Xia carefully catches the small bubbles that fall down with her hands.
Ever since Lin Xia started calling her An An, Lu Yuxiu has been watching the interaction between the two of them. They will become a family in the future.
Although he didn't know why An An had been silent before, he couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw the child returning to normal.
An An grew up with his grandmother. He had no time to accompany his child and he didn't have a wife, but An An's personality was still too quiet and he wasn't as lively as other children of his age.
But now, looking at the warm scenes of Lin Xia and her daughter interacting with each other, he couldn't help but look forward to their future life.
Lin Xia looked at the little guy in her arms. His chubby little face was puffing up because of eating. It was so cute.
In her previous life, she often saw comments about groups stealing children in short videos about cute babies. Lin Xia couldn't help but feel happy. She didn't have to steal. Now she had a doll in her arms that was so cute that it could kill people.
Feeling the man's gaze, Lin Xia looked up and discovered that there was something else in the man's deep eyes besides a smile. Lin Xia blushed and looked away in panic.
When Grandma Lu saw the three people sitting on the sofa, who looked like a family of three, she felt so disappointed that she didn't even dare to disturb them, fearing that the scene before her was just her imagination.
Her face felt wet, and when Grandma Lu raised her hand to touch it, she realized it was tears.
When I looked up at Aunt Wang, I found that she also had a look of relief on her face, with tears in her eyes that didn't fall.
The two women who had been together from young to old, at this moment, looked into each other's eyes without saying anything, but only felt that their wishes in this life had been fulfilled.
And here the newly appointed family of three are having a great time.
As time passed, Wang Ma calmed herself down and prepared to cook dinner.
In my previous life, there were many discussions about whether I should cook and wash dishes when I went to the man’s house for the first time. One party said absolutely not, because I would be looked down upon if I did, and the other party said yes.
For Lin Xia, whether or not to cook depends on whether she wants to do it. Even if she cooks, it doesn’t mean she is belittling herself.
Lin Xia looked at the gray-haired Wang Ma busying herself in the kitchen. She felt bad and took the little one in her arms to Lu Yuxiu's arms, "I'll go help Wang Ma."
Grandma Lu saw it and winked at her grandson, but Lu Yuxiu stood up before he saw his grandmother's signal.
How could he possibly let Lin Xia come to their house to cook?
When Lin Xia walked into the kitchen, she saw Lu Yuxiu following her. She looked at the man with some confusion.
"I'll help." The man said briefly.
"You can cook?" Lin Xia was curious. In this era, apart from the chefs, few men can cook.
"It's not difficult." Lu Yuxiu looked at the little girl's suspicious eyes and replied calmly.
He can indeed cook and can cook well, but I can't guarantee whether it will be delicious.
Aunt Wang heard the conversation between the two and found it very funny that her young master, who had never cooked at home, could actually cook.
When Lin Xia saw the smile in Wang Ma's eyes, she became even more suspicious of the truthfulness of the man's words.
He whispered, "Just give me a chance to conquer An An."
Lu Yuxiu thought of the meal he had at the Lin family yesterday. Even though he never cared whether the food tasted good or not, he couldn't help but reminisce about it.
After sending the man away, Lin Xia saw Wang Ma busying around and stepped forward to ask, "Wang Ma, what dishes are you going to cook?"
When Wang Ma saw that Lin Xia seemed really prepared to cook, she no longer refused her help.
When Lin Xia saw the delicious pork tenderloin, she suddenly thought of a dish that children might like very much.
Then he asked, "What are you going to do with this meat, Wang Ma?"
Wang Ma saw that she was asking about the piece of meat, and it seemed like she had some dish she wanted to cook. She thought for a moment and replied, "It hasn't been decided yet. You can cook it as you see fit."
When Lin Xia heard this, she took the meat, washed it, and prepared to cut it into strips. The dish she was going to make was sweet and sour pork tenderloin.
Lin Xia marinated the cut meat with seasonings while helping Aunt Wang prepare other dishes.
Feeling that the time was almost up, Lin Xia heated up the oil in a pan, coated the marinated meat strips with flour and fried them in the pan.
While waiting, Lin Xia prepared the sweet and sour sauce.
This fried pork tenderloin is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, coated with a rich sweet and sour sauce. It tastes sweet and sour and is very popular with children and people with poor appetite.
Aunt Wang was secretly shocked when she saw Lin Xia's swift and skillful hands and feet. This didn't seem like someone who could cook normally.
After Lin Xia finished making the sweet and sour pork ribs, she asked Wang Ma what else she wanted to make. If she could make it, she would do it.
After seeing Lin Xia's cooking skills, Wang Ma was very happy and surprised. However, seeing the little girl dressed up beautifully, she couldn't bear to let her work so she urged Lin Xia to go out and sit down. "Go out and have a rest, kid. I can handle it. Wait for you to taste my cooking skills."
Lin Xia really wanted to help, but seeing how Aunt Wang was urging her to leave, she stopped struggling.
Outside the door, An An had already smelled a sweet smell, but she was too shy to run to the kitchen to see. However, she couldn't control her saliva and swallowed it several times.
When Grandma Lu saw her grandson being kicked out, she asked curiously and found out that Lin Xia was a good cook.
Hearing the sounds of busy work in the kitchen and smelling the fragrance wafting out, Grandma Lu couldn't help but feel excited.
