Chapter 101 Three cubs sit around eating instant noodles late at night
Zhizhi's face, which had been scrunched up, suddenly understood after hearing her older brother's analysis.
She puffed out her cheeks, like a pufferfish in the sea, her chubby little face puffing out as if she were blowing air.
"Big brother, the noodles are ready, let's eat first~"
The older brother thought of everything so thoroughly; if it were her, she would never have considered this aspect.
She didn't think much about it when she started calling him "Dad".
I just felt that since this was the dad I chose for my mom, he must be perfect!
The lunchbox lid was opened, and Zhizhi took the initiative to pick up a steaming bowl of noodles and hand it to Gansu.
Her eyes sparkled with excitement. "Try it! It's delicious!"
When she was cooking lunch at the orphanage's canteen and didn't get enough to eat, the director would always secretly lead a bunch of kids to make instant noodles.
The dean said this is called "late-night special treatment," and it's made with absolutely no natural or harmful ingredients, even at an exorbitant price!
Eating is all about happiness!
That period was the happiest time of her life, because the director cared for them just like a mother. The orphanage had a rule that the children were not allowed to go out, and they had to be managed together for their safety.
But when the headmistress goes out to the park with her boyfriend in the evening, she takes her along.
The dean and the teachers took her on a small boat ride on the lake, while their boyfriends rode in another boat, racing to see who could row the fastest.
Zhizhi's eyes were filled with nostalgia and loss. If the orphanage hadn't caught fire, perhaps she would have grown up there too, and perhaps she would have taken out vegetables and fruits from her space every day to give the children extra meals.
Although life in the orphanage was poor, the love that the aunties and sisters had for the children was abundant.
The little cub rested her chin on her hand, let out a barely audible sigh, and tried to raise the corners of her mouth.
But things are fine now~
The old woman who sells soup is right; she now has a father and mother, and loving brothers.
The life she is living now is a happy life!
The little cub excitedly suggested, "Big brother, little brother, how does it taste? If it's delicious, buy more next time."
"Mmm! You know what, you really don't know." Zhenwei slurped down several mouthfuls, his eyes shining as if he wanted to drink every last drop of the broth.
Su pulled him back to stop him from eating too much, leaving some for her younger sister.
Zhenwei smacked his lips, his mouth watering. "It tastes amazing! And these noodles really do cook! It's incredible!"
"Okay, there will be more tomorrow."
Zhizhi pointed at the small lunchbox with a grin, "Little brother, finish your food, remember to wash the lunchbox, I'm going to go to sleep now~"
"Hey! Zhizhi," Gan Su called out to her, still hesitant, "What will happen to Aunt Cuiping after Suisui moves in? Are we really just going to watch her be with Chen Laowu?"
Aunt Cuiping even made him new clothes, because he didn't want Aunt Cuiping to marry a pig butcher like Chen Laowu.
Although he had only seen him a few times from afar, Chen Laowu was in a bad mood when buying groceries.
If Aunt Cuiping really marries into that family, her life will definitely be very difficult.
Zhizhi smiled, her eyes crinkling, and her pupils darted around.
"Everything is going according to plan, don't worry~"
She decided to keep it a secret for now, since she already knew about the feelings between Aunt Cuiping and Uncle Zhengyang.
All it takes is for the right moment to break the ice.
Anyway...
Zhizhi's help only made things worse.
Who knows when the paper window will break?

During the coldest days of winter, the wind howls and whistles.
Sui Sui, dressed in a beautiful light pink dress, came to the Jiang family early in the morning to find Zhi Zhi.
She was carrying a small vegetable basket, and when she looked at her father beside her, her pretty face showed unease.
"Dad, do we really have to do this?"
Han Yubin adjusted his glasses, his refined face bearing a kind smile, but his eyes held a chilling coldness.
“If you don’t get along with Jiang Zhizhi, how am I supposed to expect you to connect with Yuan Hui? Sui Sui… …Dad raised you and spent so much of his salary to dress you up. What was it all for? Wasn’t it so that you could repay me in any way you could? Listen, you should try to please Zhizhi now, and once you meet Yuan Hui, work hard to get along with him so that he’ll like playing with you more. That way, Dad’s career will be smooth sailing in the future.”
Han Suisui's face paled, and her hands, which were holding the basket, were red from the cold, but she dared not utter a single complaint and could only lower her head helplessly.
"Um... ..."
Her parents worked very hard to raise her, and she must excel to live up to their expectations.
Sui Sui mustered her courage and entered the Jiang family home.
"...Zhizhi? Are you awake?"
A soft, sweet voice rang out from the courtyard gate. She stood quietly at the door of the house and found that Uncle Jiang's family was having breakfast.
"Sui Sui? Why are you here so early? Sit down and have dinner together. Your Aunt Deng made some tofu pudding today, it's very fragrant and sweet."
Jiang Anchao greeted Sui Sui. Although he didn't like Han Yubin, he was still very enthusiastic about Sui Sui, a sensible and quiet girl.
When Deng Qiu saw her coming over, he quickly scooped out a bowl of tofu pudding and poured hot, sweet soy milk over it, filling the room with a rich aroma.
Sui Sui smiled shyly, "Thank you, Uncle and Aunt. I've already eaten. My dad is busy at work today, so he asked me to accompany my little sister Zhi Zhi to go grocery shopping."
A look of surprise flashed across Deng Qiu's eyes, and after a long pause, she nodded, "Oh, okay."
