The next day.
Lin Wanwan woke up early in the morning, but refused to drink her milk and insisted on going to the small kitchen with Huaxin and Huamei.
The two had no choice but to use a baby bottle to coax her into eating in the small kitchen.
Who knew that while the two were heating their milk, she quietly climbed into a corner by herself.
Lin Wanwan grinned, revealing a few small baby teeth.
Then, with her chubby little hands, she stood up, holding onto the stove.
His head was not even as high as the stove.
There happened to be a pile of firewood nearby, and she chuckled and climbed onto it.
My gaze was fixed on the stove, on a basin full of roasted chicken.
My saliva was uncontrollably flowing down my face.
It's really not her fault.
She couldn't take it anymore after eating fake meat all day yesterday.
My dreams are filled with roast chicken and roast duck.
So, when she woke up early in the morning, she heard the small kitchen roasting chicken, and she couldn't resist coming over.
Lin Wanwan stretched out her small, lotus-root-like hands, grabbed a large chicken leg not far away, and stuffed it into her mouth.
Before I even took a bite, the chicken leg was covered in saliva.
[Aww, it smells so good!]
This is truly a delicacy!
She leaned against the stove, plopped down on the stove opening, and began to bite into the food with relish, glancing occasionally at the roaring fire inside.
'Smack smack'
'Smack smack'
"Huh? Huaxin, where's Miss?"
Hua Mei put down the milk bottle and prepared to pick up the child at her feet. She looked around and found that the child was gone.
Upon hearing this, Hua Xin looked around in fright and hurriedly ran outside to look for him.
"Miss, young lady, where are you?"
"Miss……"
"girl……"
'Smack smack'
'Smack smack'
The little guy was enjoying his meal immensely.
Every now and then, he would wipe his greasy hands on her new clothes.
It's good to be alive.
[Waaaaah...]
"Sister Huamei, listen."
The maid who was boiling water heard strange noises from inside the room and pulled back Hua Mei, who was also about to go out to look for them.
After hearing this, Hua Mei pulled her right leg back.
'Smack smack'
"Clock~"
"Wow~"
"Meat~"
Upon hearing the familiar baby voice, Hua Mei immediately began searching around the kitchen.
Then her gaze settled behind the stove, and she gestured a "shh" to the maid beside her.
Then he walked step by step towards the back of the stove.
The little guy was sitting on the ground, facing the stove, biting into a chicken leg one bite at a time.
He would wipe his body with his hands from time to time, and grab meat and stuff it into his mouth from time to time.
When Hua Mei saw this, she almost burst out laughing.
"My dear girl, what brings you here?"
Lin Wanwan was so frightened by Hua Mei's voice that she hid the chicken leg behind her back.
"Gurgle~"
The little guy put on a great performance and gave Hua Mei a big smile.
"Young lady, Huaxin has gone out looking for you. What are you doing here?"
"Look at him, his face is as black as charcoal."
Hua Mei squatted down and picked her up, pretending not to see the chicken leg she had hidden behind her back.
Lin Wanwan shook her head vigorously.
Actually, the chicken leg had already been exposed.
Her arms are too short to hide anything.
One tried hard to hide, the other tried hard to pretend.
Hua Mei took out a handkerchief and wiped her smudged little face. Even the maid who boiled water couldn't help but laugh.
"Miss, this is the kitchen. You can't just come here casually in the future."
"If we were to catch fire, even ten heads wouldn't be enough to save us."
Lin Wanwan raised her chubby little hand and made a funny face.
Seeing this, Hua Mei couldn't even bring herself to say anything harsh.
"Alright, I'll secretly make you some snacks, but please don't let Madam find out, okay?"
"Okay~" The little guy hugged Hua Mei's little hand, overjoyed.
Hua Mei then said to the kitchen maid behind her, "Dong Yun, go and see what fruits are available, slice them, and then dry them for the young lady to eat."
Dongyun smiled and curtsied: "Yes, Sister Huamei."
[Vegetarian?]
Better than eating porridge...
Helpless, Hua Mei carried the overjoyed Lin Wanwan into the house.
Hua Xin saw Lin Wanwan return and quickly ran over.
"Young lady, where have you been?"
"I've been searching for you all over the courtyard. If you come back, I'm afraid I'll have to go out of the manor to look for you."
I was terrified after drawing the heart.
She and Hua Mei, along with Lin Wanwan, turned around, and the little one had vanished.
Thankfully, it was found.
In the future, I'm afraid I'll have to tie a rope around my waist.
Ye Lanyin smiled and patted Hua Xin.
"It's alright, the gate to the yard is locked, she can't run out."
Hua Xin wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Madam, I'm afraid... afraid that someone with malicious intent will kidnap me."
Ye Lanyin naturally knew what "painting the heart" meant.
What happened? He was taken to the black market.
The people at Fuyou Courtyard hadn't slept for days and nights.
She was worried just now too.
Fortunately, we found it.
"Madam, the young lady is hiding in the corner behind the stove, sneaking away to eat."
"My face was completely blackened by the smoke, I looked like a black bear."
Upon hearing this, Hua Xin burst out laughing.
Lin Wanwan looked like a child who had done something wrong, her two little hands clasped together.
