Shen Yingying was very satisfied to see the bewildered look on Ge Qiang's family's faces.
So she said to them, "We're all family, don't be so formal."
I can't eat because you're all so cramped.
Upon hearing her words, Ge Qiang and his family forced a smile and replied, "Not at all, not at all..."
Shen Yingying noticed that although they said those things, their actions were no different.
So she stopped paying attention to them and looked at the two babies that Ge Peng and his wife were holding.
Ge Peng held his eldest son, who was over three years old, and his youngest son, who was about one and a half years old.
She found the two little ones quite endearing, so she took out two bottles of yogurt from her spatial storage, inserted straws, and handed them to Ge Peng.
"Hey, this is yogurt, let them drink this."
Upon hearing the word "yogurt," Ge Peng thought to himself: "How can I drink this milk if it's sour?"
"Won't the child get an upset stomach if he drinks this?" He hesitated, not wanting to take it.
Shen Yingying saw through Ge Peng's thoughts. She thought to herself: People in ancient times are just like people in ancient times. They are not very good at accepting new things, except for Ouyang Yuqing...
Seeing Ge Peng's troubled expression, she explained, "Don't be fooled by the name 'yogurt,' this milk is actually a probiotic. It's good for children's health, and it tastes sweet and sour with a great texture."
After hearing Shen Yingying's explanation, Ge Peng thought to himself: Misunderstanding, misunderstanding...
Poverty stifles imagination; he's being superficial, and he shouldn't have such thoughts.
Given the King of War's character, the Queen Consort wouldn't give the child anything bad to drink.
So he said to Shen Yingying, "I'm sorry, sister-in-law, I'm sorry you had to see this. We're just ordinary farmers, so please forgive our ignorance."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yingying said, "We're family, so let's not say anything so sour."
At this moment, Ouyang Yuqing heard the conversation between the two and said to the people at the table, "It's no fun for family members to be so polite. Treat my husband and me as family, so let's treat this as a family dinner for relatives returning home. There's no need to be so formal."
Upon hearing Ouyang Yuqing's words, Ge Qiang's family happily replied, "Yes, that's right. We're family, so let's not stand on ceremony and eat."
Once the conversation was over, there was no longer any awkwardness between them, and they all picked up their chopsticks and started eating.
Ge Peng divided the yogurt between the two children.
The two little ones obediently accepted the yogurt from their parents' arms.
But they didn't know how to drink it, so the eldest son handed the yogurt to Ge Peng.
Shen Yingying watched as the child handed the yogurt to his father, and she thought to herself: This brain of hers, how could she forget to tell the little guy how to drink it?
So she said to Ge Peng, "Brother, this yogurt has a straw stuck in it, so the child can just drink directly from the straw."
Upon hearing this, Ge Peng nodded, then held the straw to his eldest son's mouth and said, "Slurp!..."
The three-year-old took a deep breath after hearing his father's words.
The yogurt tasted sweet and sour, and he immediately bought a lot of it with a big smile.
After taking a sip of yogurt, he smiled happily and said, "It's delicious, Daddy, you should drink some too."
Shen Yingying was happy to see how well-behaved the child was, and she was just about to say something.
Someone knocked on the door outside the courtyard.
"Pengzi, open the door..."
Upon hearing the voice of the old village chief, Ge Peng said to Ouyang Yuqing and his wife, "It's the old village chief. I'll go open the door."
Ge Peng was still holding the child in his arms. Ouyang Yuqing asked him to sit down, and he instructed Yin Yi to open the door.
A short while later, Yin Yi led the old village chief to the table.
Seeing that everyone was eating, the old village chief said apologetically, "Oh dear, you're all eating, this..."
I'll come back later...
