Seeing Little Cherry's tearful and aggrieved expression, Ruan Yunxi immediately picked her up and comforted her: "Don't cry, don't cry. Auntie missed you too. I missed you so much. I was thinking of coming to play with you after dinner, but who knew you would come by yourself? Do your parents know?"
Little Cherry shook her head: "I came secretly!"
Ruan Yunxi smiled indulgently: "You can't do that next time. Next time you go somewhere, you have to tell Mom and Dad, so they won't think you've gotten lost and worry."
Little Cherry nodded obediently: "I'll go back and tell Mom and Dad now!"
"Okay, go tell your parents that you're coming to our house to play."
Little Cherry nodded.
As soon as she left, Ruan Yunxi glared at Gu Weizhou, who was watching the commotion: "You're not talking nonsense, are you?"
"No, I just said you were tired, nothing else," Gu Weizhou assured him.
Ruan Yunxi was finally satisfied, and said reproachfully, "It's all your fault!"
"Yes, yes, it's my fault. Are you hungry? I'll re-roast the roast duck you brought back. It tastes pretty good. Do you want to try some?" Gu Weizhou said, trying to take credit.
Ruan Yunxi asked in surprise, "Can it be reheated?"
Gu Weizhou took out the roast duck he had re-roasted from the stove. And it must be said, the re-roasting was indeed very successful. The skin was crispy and smelled deliciously caramelized, like a freshly roasted duck.
He even took out a knife and sliced the roast duck for her with great seriousness.
Ruan Yunxi was surprised that Gu Weizhou had also steamed pancakes. He was clearly a native of Beijing. Even if she didn't know how, she could learn by watching.
Although it can't compare to freshly baked duck, it's still better than roast duck that hasn't been roasted again.
Both Sister-in-law Sheng and Political Commissar Li's families steamed the duck in a pot before eating it, so it didn't have the crispy texture of roast duck, and it wasn't greasy at all.
But since it was meat, they didn't mind at all and ate it with relish.
As Ruan Yunxi was eating, Little Cherry came again: "Auntie, I'm here again!"
Ruan Yunxi smiled and waved: "Come on, your aunt saved a duck leg for you."
Seeing the little potato, Ruan Yunxi smiled and said, "Potato, come and eat the duck leg too, one for each of you!"
Little Potato nodded with a smile.
Gu Weizhou sliced the duck skin and ate it, feeding the three of them until they were full, and then the rest was all his.
Gu Weizhou had a good appetite and did physical labor in the afternoon. Now he was like a bottomless pit, cleaning up all the leftovers from Ruan Yunxi's meal.
Ruan Yunxi ate two-thirds of the roast duck skin, Xiao Yingtao and the others ate a few pieces of roast duck skin, then had two duck legs, and he ate the rest. The bones were given to the dog guarding the gate.
The dog belongs to the other women in the residential compound. It doesn't bite or bark. Whenever someone has meat and bones, they save them for the dogs.
I smelled the aroma of meat from Ruan Yunxi's house today and have been waiting for it ever since.
He also likes to visit Ruan Yunxi's house often.
Ruan Yunxi could secretly eat meat, but she couldn't fool the dogs' noses. They would wait outside at the appointed time, lying where Ruan Yunxi could see them, neither speaking nor calling out, just staring at her expectantly.
Ruan Yunxi doesn't like to eat fatty meat, bones, chicken skin, duck skin, etc., so she basically feeds them to the dogs.
She loves roast duck skin, but I won't give her any.
After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, Ruan Yunxi took Xiao Yingtao and her siblings for a stroll in the family compound to digest their food. They didn't want to sleep yet, so it was a good time to go out for a walk.
Gu Weizhou finished cleaning up the dishes, and when he saw that his wife and two adorable children were gone, he immediately closed the door and followed them, afraid that his wife would get lost.
As soon as Sister-in-law Sheng finished getting ready, she was about to go pick up the children when the two children returned: "Mom, let's go for a walk on the beach with Auntie. Auntie said she hasn't seen the sea in a long time and wants to go to the beach to feel the breeze!"
Sister-in-law Sheng knew that this person had eaten too much, slept too much, and wanted to take a stroll.
She said something to the man and followed him.
After exchanging greetings, Sister-in-law Sheng said, "You seem to have gained some weight since your trip to Beijing."
Ruan Yunxi pinched her chin: "Really?"
