Chapter 153 Dorothy's 'Little Cleverness'



Tie Dan has met his match this time. He can't beat them, and he's in the wrong. He Jiajia, being an adult, can't step in, so he has to accept this loss.

Knowing what was going on, He Jiajia instructed, "Tiedan, Duofu and the others are different from other children. Don't provoke them in the future, okay?"

With their strength and Gao Shujing, who could easily handle even a few wolves, standing there, Duofu and his companions would become increasingly formidable once they learned his skills.

All He Jiajia can do now is remind Tie Dan not to be foolish enough to go up there and get beaten up.

This was the first time in Tie Dan's life that he had ever heard his grandmother say not to mess with anyone. Even when he was dealing with Er Dan and Da Wa, he could hit them whenever he wanted, and his grandmother never said a word to him.

Tie Dan cried and threw a tantrum, saying, "No, I want to eat pancakes, lots and lots of them!"

He Jiajia was confused and thought that Tiedan wanted to eat the biscuits that she usually bought from town, so she readily agreed: "Okay, okay, Grandma will go get you biscuits to eat, lots and lots of them."

Tie Dan stopped He Jiajia, who was about to go back into the house: "It's not from home, it's the kind of pancake that Duo Xi and the others ate. I want to eat that kind of pancake, Grandma, go and get it."

He Jiajia: "What kind of cakes did Duoxi and the others eat? Grandma, ask your dad to go and buy some."

Tie Dan: "I don't know, go to Duo Xi's house and get it."

Seeing that Tie Dan couldn't give a clear answer, He Jiajia turned her gaze to Hei Dan and the others: "Hei Dan, what kind of cakes does Duo Xi Jia make?"

Black Egg: "Grandma Li, the pancakes that Duoxi and the others ate must have been homemade. They smelled so good, and there were eggs too. They were golden and very oily." As he spoke, he slurped up some saliva. They really smelled so good. It was a pity that they didn't get to taste them.

Speaking of eggs, they are indeed yellow when cooked. He Jiajia thought for a moment and asked, "Iron Egg, is it a pancake made with eggs?"

Tie Dan cried for a while, and hiccuped a bit. He said intermittently, "I ate it. It seemed like there were eggs, but it wasn't. Eggs were especially fragrant, much more fragrant than the eggs at home."

He Jiajia asked, completely bewildered, "Black Egg, have you eaten it? What's it made of?"

Black Egg: "Iron Egg took Duoxi's cake and ate it all himself, leaving us no bites."

Honestly, if it weren't for Grandma Li often giving them food, they wouldn't have followed Tie Dan around. They didn't get a single bite of food, but they got into a lot of fights.

He Jiajia had obviously also thought of the scene of her eldest grandson being possessive of his food: "Thank you for your hard work, Heidan. Come in and take some chicken cakes back to eat."

Tie Dan was still unwilling and desperately pulled He Jiajia away, saying, "No, I want to go to Duoxi's house to eat pancakes."

He Jiajia comforted her, "Grandma Duoxi's family knows how to make pancakes. She'll make some for you later." She planned to use more oil to fry the eggs and try to make them into pancake shapes to see if she could get away with it.

Hearing that she could do it, Tiedan stopped making a fuss.

He Jiajia took out a bag of sponge cakes from the kitchen cabinet, gave two to each person, and then left with Hei Dan and the others.

On Yu Rujia's side, it was the first time the kids had a fight. Apart from teaching them the importance of martial arts training and that they shouldn't show off their good stuff to others, nothing else changed.

Duolu followed Yu Rujia around again: "Auntie, do you have any more wild scallion pancakes? I want to have another one."

Yu Rujia: "There are still some left. Auntie will give each of you one. That's all."

Duolu nodded vigorously: "Okay, one is fine." As long as there is one, that's enough. He's not a greedy kid; that's what he believes in himself.

Yu Rujia gave each of the children a wild scallion pancake, and the rest would be eaten at another meal that night.

As soon as Jia Yi left, Duo Lu quickly finished his wild scallion pancake, glanced at his three brothers' hands, and finally fixed his gaze on Duo Xi, who was obviously easy to bully.

Duolu chuckled and asked, "Duoxi, do you like your second brother?"

Upon seeing his actions, Duofu and Duoshou knew what he was up to without even guessing. They glared at him and then went back to eating their own pancakes, not stopping him from tricking Duoxi out of his pancakes.

Duoxi hadn't taken more than a few bites of the wild scallion pancake when she saw her favorite second brother coming over. She took the pancake out of Xiao Mi's mouth and even drooled a little.

Confused, Duoxi grinned foolishly and said, "I like him, I like my second brother the most."

Hearing what he wanted to hear, Duolu revealed his true colors: "Duoxi likes Second Brother. Second Brother is very hungry right now. Could Duoxi share some cakes with Second Brother?"

Duoxi is very generous to her family. Although she likes wild scallion pancakes very much, she still reached out her little hand to tear off a piece of the pancake for Duolu, her beloved second brother.

Duoxi: "I'll share some with my second brother."

Having achieved his goal, Duolu pressed his advantage, saying, "I knew Duoxi was the best. Come on, second brother, let's share."

Unaware of his treachery, Duoxi handed the wild onion pancake to Duolu without a second thought.

Duolu took the cake, tore off the piece that Duoxi had bitten, stuffed the unbitten piece into his own mouth, and ate a mouthful. Then the two cakes in his hand were about the same size.

Duolu placed the two cakes in front of Duoxi and said indistinctly, "Look, the two cakes are the same size. You eat this one, and I'll eat this one. We're good brothers, so we should eat the same thing."

To eat more cakes, Doro went to great lengths, even coming up with such a tactic.

Duoxi, who lacked even a kindergarten education, looked at the two cakes in his hand and then glanced at Duolu's bulging mouth. He felt that something was off, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

Afraid that he would realize what was happening, Duolu stuffed the piece of cake he had eaten into his hand: "Here, take it. Second brother likes Duoxi the most."

The phrase "my favorite" successfully diverted Duoxi's attention, and the little guy happily took the biscuit that Duolu gave him and started eating it.

Taju and Tafuku, who had watched the whole scene from beginning to end, exchanged a glance.

Duoshou: "Keep a close eye on Duoxi when you go out in the future." He's too easily fooled; even a fool like Duolu can be fooled by him.

Duofu, with a serious little face, agreed, "Yes, you're right, we should keep a close eye on things."

Younger brothers are truly a source of endless worry. Fortunately, Duo Shou was there to help him. Duo Fu glanced at Duo Shou with relief; his younger brother was always reliable.

After eating another fragrant wild scallion pancake, Duolu washed his hands and happily ran to Yu Rujia: "Auntie, what are we having for dinner tonight?"

Yu Rujia: "How about making braised pork with dried bean curd?"

The dried bean curd sticks were made by them during the Chinese New Year. They had only eaten them twice. Not only did Yu Rujia like to eat them, but the children in the family also liked to eat them.

Duolu jumped up happily: "Okay, I love braised pork with tofu skin the most, hehe, Auntie, are there any other dishes?"

Yu Rujia: "Do you like bamboo shoot and pork rib soup?"
