Chapter 355
Shen Yao returned to the Shen family with mung bean soup and Ye Fuyue.
Shen Shunzheng, Hao Haoranran, and Qiqi were in the yard. Qiqi was kicking her legs in her little rocking bed.
"Mom and Dad are back—" Haohao and Ranran saw Chen Yao and Ye Fuyue, shouted and ran over.
Chen Guifeng heard the voice and poked her head out of the kitchen: "You're back. How did you do on the exam?"
"It's okay." Shen Yao said.
"I'm cooking. We'll be eating soon." Chen Guifeng noticed the bowl in Shen Yao's hand and asked, "What are you holding?"
"Cui Li made mung bean soup and served us a bowl." Ye Fuyue said.
Chen Guifeng smiled and said, "She's thoughtful. There's some mung bean cake on the table that Zhong Lan brought this morning. It's quite delicious. You should try some too."
"Really? Zhong Lan also brought mung bean cakes." Ye Fuyue said.
"Yes." Chen Guifeng said.
"Mom and Dad, the mung bean cakes Aunt Zhong brought are delicious. We left two pieces for you." Haohao said.
Ye Fuyue saw that there were indeed two pieces of mung bean cakes on the plate on the table in the yard.
She took a piece and gave it to Shen Yao. Shen Yao didn't want to eat it, so Ye Fuyue took a bite herself.
"Hmm - it tastes really good, much better than what I buy outside." Ye Fuyue exclaimed.
"Mom, did you buy mung bean cakes outside?" Ranran asked with sparkling eyes.
Ye Fuyue took out the oil-paper bag from her pocket and gave it to him: "Well, but it's not as delicious as your Aunt Zhong's. You can try it."
Ranran happily took the oil paper package and opened it. There were only three mung bean cakes inside.
Ranran was troubled for a moment, first took a piece of mung bean cake to Shen Shun, then broke the second piece of mung bean cake into two halves, he and Haohao each took half, and kept the third piece of mung bean cake.
Ye Fuyue deliberately asked him, "Who did you leave this mung bean cake for?"
Ranran blinked her big dark eyes and said, "I left it for grandma."
"So good." Ye Fuyue touched the little guy's head proudly.
Haohao and Ranran took a bite of the mung bean cake, and both looked a little disgusted.
Haohao: "It's not as delicious as Auntie Zhong's."
Ranran: "Yeah."
However, the two little guys still ate up all the mung bean cakes and licked the foam off their hands.
Haohao looked at Ye Fuyue expectantly and asked, "Mom, can we have some mung bean soup now? Just a little bit will be fine."
"Drink, but don't drink too much, we'll have to eat soon." Ye Fuyue said.
Haohao and Ranran happily ran into the kitchen to get bowls.
The two little guys took out five bowls, not only for them, but also for Shen Shun, Shen Yao and Ye Fuyue.
Seeing this, Shen Yao said, “I won’t drink, you drink.”
Ye Fuyue also said: "I won't drink it either, just give mom a taste."
There is only so much mung bean soup, and if everyone drinks it, it really won’t be enough.
Haohao poured half a bowl of mung bean soup for him, Ranran and Shen Shun.
Haohao scooped a spoonful of mung bean soup with a spoon and handed it to Ye Fuyue first: "Mom, you try it first."
Ye Fuyue smiled with satisfaction, half squatted down, and drank the mung bean soup.
Ye Fuyue's eyes lit up: "Hmm, it tastes good, drink it quickly."
Ranran followed suit and scooped a spoonful of mung bean soup and handed it to Ye Fuyue.
Ye Fuyue smiled and said, "Mom won't drink anymore, you drink it."
But Ranran refused to do so: "No, Mom drank my brother's mung bean soup, so she has to drink mine too."
Ye Fuyue could only smile and drink the mung bean soup in Ranran's spoon.
Ranran finally smiled contentedly and drank the mung bean soup in the bowl, commenting as she drank, "It's really delicious."
Ye Fuyue looked at the satisfied expressions of the two little guys, and she also felt very satisfied and happy.
Normally, Zhong Lan, Cui Li, and Aunt Dong Hong would often come to their house to gossip and chat. Zhong Lan and Cui Li would often bring their children with them, and would share any food Ye Fuyue had with the children. Over time, Zhong Lan and Cui Li always felt bad about it, so they would bring some of their own cooking to Ye Fuyue and the others.
You know what, the food that Zhong Lan and Cui Li brought was always delicious.
However, Zhong Lan and Cui Li's actions were not understood by their own family members, especially the Liang family.
So, at the lunch table, Liang Tianxiong complained to Liang Nan and Liang's father.
"My stepmother made mung bean soup today, and she even sent a big bowl to Haohao Ranran's house."
Liang's father drank mung bean soup and said to Cui Li unhappily, "Why did you send mung bean soup to the Shen family? During the New Year, their family took pictures of our family, and Ye Fuyue even charged them for it. Why are you so generous to the Shen family? Their life is much better than ours."
Cui Li explained: "I didn't give them a lot, just one bowl."
"It's a very big bowl, equivalent to five or six bowls of this bowl that you drink, grandpa." Liang Tianxiong said to tease.
Cui Li continued to explain, "On weekdays, Ye Fuyue gave Laibao a lot of food. I happened to make mung bean soup today, so I thought of sending some to his family as a thank you for Ye Fuyue's daily care for Laibao."
Liang Tianxiong snorted: "Aunt Ye has never given me anything to eat, never!"
Father Liang was still a little unhappy: "It's her business if she wants to give Laibao food. She gave it to him out of her own free will. We don't need to repay her. How much are a few pieces of food worth? She even had to calculate the price with our family so clearly for a photo. There's no need for us to feel like we owe her anything."
Cui Li stopped talking, knowing that if she continued to argue with Liang's father, Liang's father would only force her to admit that he was right and she was wrong.
Liang Tianxiong glanced at Cui Li proudly.
He finished the egg in his hand and turned his eyes to the uneaten egg in front of Laibao.
Liang Tianxiong looked at Liang's father and Liang Nan, and then took advantage of Laibao's inattention to snatch the egg in front of Laibao.
Lai Bao, who was originally concentrating on eating, saw that his eggs were taken away and said to Liang Tianxiong unhappily: "Give me back my eggs!"
Liang Tianxiong peeled the egg and said in a sly tone, "No, I want to eat it."
"You eat your own, this is mine!"
"After I finish mine, I'm going to eat yours!"
"Give it to me, this is mine, I won't let you eat it!" Lai Bao said angrily.
"No, no, I just won't give it to you."
"Grandpa - Dad -" Lai Bao stomped his feet in anger and asked Liang's father and Liang Nan for help.
Liang Tianxiong stuffed the peeled egg into his mouth, took a big bite, and said vaguely: "Grandpa and Dad said that I need to nourish my body more. Eating eggs is the best way to nourish my body."
Liang's father looked at the flesh that they had grown on Liang Tianxiong during this period of time, and thought about how plump Liang Tianxiong was before he was driven out by him, and he couldn't help feeling a little regretful.
He said to Laibao in a gentle voice, "Give this egg to your brother. He's been through a lot lately and needs to replenish his body. Let mom boil an egg for you tomorrow, okay?"
