To be honest, seeing her like this, Shen Yizhizi found it really hard to put her in the role of a mother.
Although her soul has not changed, her body has now become that of a child. Her words and actions have been assimilated, and she looks very cute.
Shen Yizi unconsciously treated her with the same attitude as he treated Qing Bao and the others.
"Xiangxiang, are you hungry? Do you want some cookies? They are freshly baked, hot, fragrant and crispy, and topped with sweet cheese."
Pei Xiang nodded, "I want to eat."
Shen Yizhi placed a plate of animal-shaped biscuits in front of her, with a cup of sweet and sour cheese on the side. The cup was also specially customized with a pink pig.
Both the food and the containers are very cute and cartoony.
Pei Xiang liked it as soon as he saw it. He picked up a piece of biscuit and took a bite. It was so delicious that his round cat eyes narrowed.
The two hanging legs were still shaking.
Shen Yizhi: So cute! I want to rub it!
However, thinking that this was her mother, she suppressed this urge for the time being.
Wait until it’s a little more cooked before you start.
Zhang Lingche knocked on the table, "Xiao Zhiliao, have you forgotten that you have a master like me?"
Shen Yizhi put out a few more plates of snacks, all of which were his favorites. "It's almost noon. What do you want for lunch? You are allowed to order."
"Crystal pork elbow, pigeon with eight treasures, braised yellow croaker, fried eggplant, tiger skin tofu... and spicy crayfish!"
Zhang Lingche immediately listed a long list of dishes, showing that he had been craving for them for a long time.
As he spoke, he handed over a storage bag, which was filled with food that he had brought specially for her.
Some were collected before departure, and some were obtained on the way here.
At Xiaolu's speed, they should have arrived in about half a month, but it took them a month. The extra half a month was spent on food.
He also works very hard to eat.
Pei Xiang also enthusiastically reported a few dishes he wanted to eat.
Shen Yizhi helped her wipe the cookie crumbs from the corner of her mouth and said, "Okay, I'll do it right away."
When she brought a large bowl of crayfish to the table, Qing Bao and the other two ran back home on time, their heads and bodies covered in sweat and dust, as if they had rolled in the mud.
"Mother!"
"Aunt Shen! I'm hungry!"
Shen Yizhi cast a cleaning spell on each of the three people, and then drove them to the sink, "Wash your hands before entering the house to eat."
The three of them rushed to wash their hands and ran into the house. When they saw Zhang Lingche, they rushed over in surprise: "Uncle Lingche!"
Zhang Lingche stuffed a freshly peeled lobster into Qingbao's mouth, and peeled one for Yuanbao and Niannian respectively.
The three little guys stood in front of him one by one, opening their mouths and crying for food, making Zhang Lingche feel both happy and tormented.
He was happy to feed the three little cuties, but it was very sad to watch them eat while he had nothing to eat.
Shen Yizhi brought in a few more dishes, "Okay, stop staying in your uncle Lingche's arms and sit down."
When their attention shifted away from the crayfish that Zhang Lingche was peeling, the three of them discovered Pei Xiang who was blocked by Zhang Lingche.
"Xiangxiang!" Qingbao and Yuanbao were very happy to see their little friend.
Nian Nian glanced at Pei Xiang curiously, then focused on eating.
After the meal, the four little guys had become familiar with each other.
Anyone who has raised children knows that the more children there are, the more active and noisy they become.
Shen Yizi is facing such a situation at the moment.
Looking at the little ones running around the house, who were supposed to take a nap after eating, Shen Yizi's forehead twitched.
As an adult, Zhang Lingche not only did not stop them, but also joined in and went crazy with them. Shen Yizhi just wanted to express his feelings at the moment by roaring.
She slammed the table and said, "Stop everything! Now, immediately, take a nap! Otherwise, there will be no more snacks for the afternoon! Ice cream, egg rolls, Dorayaki, meat patties, all gone!"
She knew that she must look hysterical at this moment.
In fact, she also wanted to be an elegant and quiet fairy, but a fairy couldn't control a group of little demons.
Under the threat of losing their snacks, Qing Bao and the other three calmed down. Those who were standing on the table, riding on the chair, and floating on the beam all came down obediently.
After watching the four little devils fall asleep, Shen Yizi came down from upstairs feeling very tired.
In the main room, Zhang Lingche crossed his legs and ate the bread he had asked for from Shen Yizhi, dipping it in crayfish sauce.
When Shen Yizi came out and saw this scene, he felt even more tired.
She sat down and drank a sip of tea, calming her emotions which were fluctuating like waves.
Xiao San came over and asked her if she wanted to organize any activities for the Ghost Festival tomorrow.
"Let's go out and talk." Shen Yizi stood up.
Before leaving, he gave Zhang Lingche another earnest instruction: "Wait until Qingbao and the others have slept for half an hour, then wake them up. If they sleep too much, they won't be able to sleep at night and will make a fuss again. Also, don't take them out to play, understand?"
Zhang Lingche agreed with a smile.
Unfortunately, as soon as Shen Yizhizi left the house, he immediately put down his crossed legs and quietly slipped upstairs.
"Get up, get up, she's gone."
Qing Bao and others who were originally "asleep" immediately opened their eyes.
A moment later, Zhang Lingche led the four little ones with great destructive power to Tianzhou Lake.
Their target was the lotus pods among the lotus flowers and leaves that occupied a large area of the lake.
In the afternoon, Shen Yizi came back.
In the yard, Zhang Lingche and Qing Bao were peeling lotus pods.
The four little guys sat in a row, each holding a small stool, and bent their heads to peel lotus pods hard, which made Shen Yizi's heart melt.
However, she soon realized a problem: "Where did these lotus pods come from?"
Zhang Lingche did not hide it: "I took Qingbao and the others to pick it."
Before Shen Yizhi could get angry, Qing Bao and the others ran up to her, each holding a bright pink lotus flower, "Mom/Aunt Shen/Baby, this is for you!"
Shen Yizhi, who was surrounded by flowers and cute babies, said: "..."
My anger suddenly subsided.
Zhang Lingche added: "I'm watching over them. There are still the two clam spirits and the carp spirit in the lake. Nothing will happen to them."
Yichang, who was wrapped around Qingbao's wrist, looked up: "And me."
Shen Yizhi held the flowers and snorted, "I know you are here, but what if you are not here next time? You can't always be with them. If you spoil them to be lawless now, what will you do if something happens in the future?"
Zhang Lingche touched his nose, smiled and said nothing.
Aren't you the one who spoils them the most? Shen Yizhi looked at the lotus in his hand, and his heart moved, "Tomorrow is the Ghost Festival, let's use these lotus flowers to make some lotus lanterns."
They spent last year’s Ghost Festival in Langcheng, but this year they don’t have to go to Langcheng.
Almost as soon as night fell, the entire Moqing City became a sea of lights.
There are opera singers, acrobatic performers, and people selling all kinds of food on the streets... The area near Tianzhou Lake is the busiest.
After all, Tianzhou Lake is a great place to light lanterns.
The bridge over the lake, which was built in one day, was crowded with people.
At first, people in the city were afraid to go up, but under the leadership of some brave men, more and more people went up, and soon it became a crowded scene.
Under the bridge, boats and pleasure craft of all sizes come and go constantly.
