Zhong Biliu watched her eat pine nuts without blinking.
Xue Huan: "You want to eat too? No."
Zhong Biliu: “…”
A hint of smile flashed across Pei Ji's lowered eyes. His Huanhuan was really naughty, but he liked it.
Originally, when Zhong Biliu said, "I have memorized your soul breath," Pei Ji was quite unhappy with him. Huanhuan was his, from head to toe, inside and out, both body and soul, she belonged to him completely. Zhong Biliu's words sounded like a provocation to him.
But now, Xue Huan made him suffer a setback, and Pei Ji's mood instantly improved.
Pei Ji, who had already won a round before even making a move, was not shy about showing off his generosity. He pushed the plate of pine nuts toward him and said, "You can peel them yourself if you want to eat them."
Zhong Biliu glanced at the pine nuts on the plate and gave up.
He was too lazy to peel it, he just wanted to eat it ready.
If Xue Huan knew what he was thinking, she would definitely say, "What the hell are you dreaming about?"
After figuring out Zhong Biliu's identity, Xue Huan let down her guard against him. "Now you can confirm that the message I left for you wasn't some conspiracy, right? I told you that you can make a request of me, but of course, it has to be within my ability. What do you want me to do?"
Zhong Biliu rested his chin on his hand and said, "I haven't thought of it yet. I'll tell you when I think of it later."
"good."
"What are fried chicken and sweet potato fries?" he suddenly asked.
Xue Huan: "...Fried chicken is made by deboning the chicken, cutting it into pieces, marinating it, coating it with flour and egg liquid, frying it in a frying pan, and then dipping it in sauce. The skin is crispy, and the chicken inside is tender and juicy. Depending on the sauce, the flavor varies, including spicy, sweet and sour, salty and fresh, etc.
"Sweet potato chips are made by peeling the sweet potatoes and cutting them into strips, neither too thick nor too thin. Then, you coat them with starch and fry them in oil. You can eat them right after you take them out. They are crispy, sweet, and soft, making them a great snack."
As Zhong Biliu listened, his eyes became visibly filled with greed and anticipation.
"It sounds delicious. I wonder if I'll be lucky enough to try it?"
Xue Huan: Confirmed, this guy is also a foodie.
But when she said that just now, she was also greedy.
"Of course, I'll go to the kitchen and prepare it."
Pei Ji also stood up: "Hanhuan, I'll go help you."
"good."
Zhong Biliu also followed.
The smell of fried chicken and sweet potato fries is so overpowering that it can be smelled all over the street.
Xue Yao and Xue Jun were both awakened by the fragrance. Their dogs smelled the fragrance earlier than their owners and could no longer contain their excitement. When they saw their owners woke up, they hurried forward to take a look.
Xue Huan was taking out the fried chicken and sweet potato fries. She was working with two pots at the same time, one for frying chicken nuggets and the other for frying sweet potato fries.
The sweet potato fries came out of the pot first and were still hot. Zhong Biliu couldn't wait to reach out for them. Although he was severely burned, he was reluctant to let go. He put them in his mouth and took a bite. He was immediately conquered.
When he tasted the fried chicken, he was conquered again.
He originally thought that the meals he had eaten at the Xue family were delicious enough, but he didn't expect that the two snacks made by Xue Huan were even more irresistible.
When Xue Yao and Xue Jun came over, they saw Zhong Biliu holding a plate of sweet potato fries and putting them into his mouth.
"Jun'er is here? Have some sweet potato fries." He picked up one and fed it directly to Xue Jun's mouth.
Seeing that his sister, brother and Brother Huo were all looking at him, Xue Jun didn't dare to open his mouth.
"Brother Zhong, I can do it myself."
Zhong Biliu withdrew his hand regretfully.
Xue Huan narrowed her eyes and an alarm sounded in her heart. Could it be that this thousand-year-old tree demon actually had some evil intentions towards Jun'er, who was only twelve years old?
It seems she needs to pay more attention in the future.
In the afternoon, Pei Ji left and returned to the Huo residence.
Seeing him come back, Mrs. Huo was very happy. She ordered the servants to boil water and asked the kitchen to prepare more dishes.
Xiaobao, who is now almost two years old, was a little shy when he saw him at first and hid in Mrs. Huo's arms. But when Pei Ji took out a bunch of toys and snacks, especially the fried chicken and sweet potato fries that Xue Huan asked him to bring back, Xiaobao became close to him.
After a while, she fell into his arms.
With the experience of taking care of Xiaobao, Pei Ji is now very experienced in taking care of children. He made Xiaobao laugh. At a certain moment, Xiaobao suddenly called him "Dad".
When Mrs. Huo heard the word "Dad", she felt both amused and sad.
Pei Ji did not deny it. He just called him father. He already had a son and didn't mind having another one.
When the hot water was ready, Xiaobao hugged Pei Ji's neck tightly and refused to get off him. As soon as Mrs. Huo stretched out her hand, he pouted as if he was about to cry.
Pei Ji held his little butt and said with a smile: "I'll take him to take a bath together. Let's go, the two of us are going to take a bath together~"
He placed the little guy on his neck, supported him with his back hand, and pretended to sprint towards the room.
Instead of feeling scared, Xiaobao clapped his hands excitedly, shouted and laughed, and his chubby little legs kept kicking Pei Ji's shoulders.
Mrs. Huo chased after him and shouted, "Slow down, be careful not to drop Xiaobao."
"I can't fall..." Pei Ji replied, and the person had already walked far away.
Mrs. Huo shook her head, but her eyes and eyebrows were full of smiles.
Her Akang was rarely so childish. He usually looked cold and indifferent, but in fact, he was only in his twenties.
But the reason he showed this side of himself was probably because of Huanhuan. When men have someone they love, they tend to show off their particularly childish side.
As a mother, she was very happy to see Akang like this.
After taking a bath and having dinner, Pei Ji held Xiaobao in his arms and sat on the kang by the window to talk with Mrs. Huo.
Mrs. Huo didn't care much about what was happening in the court. She only cared about one thing: "Akang, when will you marry Huanhuan?"
She was very satisfied with Xue Huan as her daughter-in-law and just wanted to see them get married as soon as possible. It would be best if Huan Huan gave birth to a little grandson for her to take care of, so that Xiao Bao would have a companion.
Pei Ji was also anxious, but Huanhuan didn't want to get married so soon, and he respected her wishes.
But facing his mother, he subconsciously felt that it was not appropriate to say this, so he said, "Mom, now that the demonic insects are attacking, Daqi is facing an unprecedented crisis. It is not a good time to get married. I want to wait until the demonic insects are killed and the world is peaceful and prosperous. Only then will I marry Huanhuan with a grand ceremony."
As soon as these words came out, he was hit by Huo.
"Wait until all the devil bugs are killed? Who knows when they will be completely killed? If the devil bugs can't be killed, you won't get married? If everyone else is like you, how can we live like this?"
Mrs. Huo's loud voice startled Xiaobao, who was originally drowsy and pecking at rice like a chicken, and he woke up suddenly. He looked at her blankly with his big, misty eyes.
Mrs. Huo hurriedly comforted him softly, "It's okay, it's okay, Xiaobao, go back to sleep, okay?"
So Xiaobao continued to lie back on Pei Ji's shoulder, and soon he opened his mouth and began to drool.
Pei Ji didn't feel disgusted at all and wiped him with a handkerchief.
Mrs. Huo stared at Pei Ji for a while, then suddenly said something startling: "Akang, tell me honestly, you don't want to marry Huanhuan, do you?"
