If he teased her again, she would start crying. She closed her eyes, shook her head, and pushed him hard.
"Grandpa, give it to me. Liu Tiao needs to go to bed." Peng Yitiao washed his hands and hugged Liu Tiao.
"Guoguo~" Liu Tiao shouted "Ah ah", his eyes slightly red. Seeing his big brother Yi Tiao, he buried his little face in dependence and wiped his tears and snot on his brother's clothes.
"Don't cry, your brother is here, go to sleep." Peng Yitiao hugged Liu Tiao and rocked him.
"I'm sleeping, why are you crying?" Cheng Fugui said he didn't quite understand.
"Liu Tiao will look for his mother and me when he goes to sleep. If he can't find them, he will cry." Peng Yi Tiao said with experience.
"So that's how it is..." Cheng Fugui nodded, looking as if he had learned something. Thinking back to when Zhenbao was little, he seemed to have been looking for his mother all day long, and would cry when he couldn't find her.
However, Yitiao was very close to the baby. His skillful coaxing movements and gentle voice showed that he was always coaxing babies. His eldest grandson was really sensible.
After one hug and two pats, the crying of the six children gradually stopped. A few tears squeezed out of their eyes and a bubble of snot came out of their noses.
"Second brother will wipe it for you." Peng Ertiao appeared from the side with a handkerchief.
Peng Sandiao also came out to take a look. Seeing that Liu Tiao looked like he was about to fall asleep, he covered his mouth tightly and slowly walked away to find his mother.
The three grandsons are very sensible... Cheng Fugui nodded with satisfaction after watching the whole process.
"Cold~ The twisted stick is broken, and I'm sleepy~" Peng Sandiao climbed up the tube on his mother's leg and yawned softly.
"Are you sleepy, San Tiao? But are we going to have something delicious to eat soon?"
"What are you barking at?" When Peng Sandiao heard what his mother said, his eyes widened, he stood on tiptoe, and looked into the pot with a puffed-up face.
"Today, Mom made crab stewed rice, fish soup and fried bacon. There is also steamed crabs that Sanzi likes to eat..." Cheng Zhenzhu kept tempting.
"Just finished taking a nap." Peng Sandiao smelled the tempting fragrance and nodded.
"Well, then, please help me get the chopsticks for the three of you. I'll give you three more crabs and one more crab later." Cheng Zhenzhu took a pair of chopsticks and asked the three of you to start eating.
"Okay~" San Tiao moved the small stool, washed his hands and went to pick up the chopsticks. His hands were small and he couldn't pick up all the chopsticks at once...
The little guy didn't hesitate for a few seconds and cleverly chose to take them separately.
"Cold, three pieces, big brother's, second brother's, don't be stubborn..." The three pieces counted the heads and took them one by one. After running a few times, they became energetic little kids.
Zhao Fangrui couldn't help but praise her daughter for her ability to educate children.
"They are all well behaved..."
Three of them took the chopsticks, and two of them came to help hold the bowls, seven at a time, "huff and puff," carefully.
"It's time to eat." Cheng Zhenzhu brought two dishes to the table and two bowls of sauce.
"Hehe, I'm going to try the seafood dinner made by my daughter today." Cheng Fugui rubbed his hands, looking forward to it, and then was photographed by Zhao Fangrui.
"Didn't you see that the rice hasn't arrived yet, and neither have the crabs? Are you just waiting for your daughter to serve you?"
"I'll go, I'll go." Cheng Zhenbao stood up immediately, "Sister, I'll help you."
"Well, the crabs are steaming. Take two bowls and pick a few over. Dip them in the sauce and eat them."
"Okay." Wang Xiaomei also came to help.
Cheng Zhenzhu shook off the water in the large basin and opened the lid of the steaming rice pot on the other side. Suddenly, a rich and fragrant aroma hit their faces, impacting the taste buds of the three people in the kitchen.
"Second sister, what's in your pot?" Cheng Zhenbao swallowed a big mouthful of saliva.
Wang Xiaomei took a deep breath and asked, "Second sister, why does it smell so good?"
Cheng Zhenzhu hadn't expected it to smell so good. But the recipe also included the step of "sprinkle chopped green onions, simmer briefly, and stir," so she quickly sprinkled some chopped green onions in and simmered them.
"This is my first time making crab stewed rice. I didn't expect it to be so delicious. Let's try it today." After stewing the chopped green onions for 30 seconds, Cheng Zhenzhu used a spatula to stir the rice with a thick layer of crab pieces.
After stirring it twice, the fragrance became more and more rampant. Zhao Sanni followed the smell and searched everywhere, "What is it? It smells so good. I'm hungry."
"If you're hungry, wash your hands and eat." Cheng Zhenbao felt helpless as he looked at Sanni, who was covered in dirt.
"Oh." Thinking of delicious food, Zhao Sanni immediately washed her hands and returned to the living room.
Here, a large pot of crab stewed rice was served on the table under the escort of Cheng Zhenzhu and the other two.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the yellow rice grains in the large iron basin, which were emitting a bursting and fragrant aroma.
Peng Ertiao exclaimed, "Mom, is this rice made from crabs? It looks so delicious!"
"I call it crab stewed rice. Come and try it." Cheng Zhenzhu first filled a bowl for the little kids.
Sanni took a bite and didn't bother to swallow it. She quickly pushed the bowl away and said, "It's not enough. Fill it up."
"Present after you finish eating. You have no manners." Cheng Zhenyu slapped the little girl's hand back.
"Hmph..." Zhao Sanni watched her mother fill a large bowl for herself and press it twice, then she touched her hurt hand aggrievedly.
Peng San Tiao scooped a spoonful of rice, his eyes wide open, as if he had opened the door to a new world... "Great!"
"Mom, this smells so good!" Peng Ertiao stuffed his mouth with rice in big mouthfuls, until his mouth was bulging, to show his support for his mother.
"It smells so good!" The rice was just out of the pot, steaming hot. Peng Yitiao took a bite and exhaled, but he had no intention of stopping.
"My dear, your crab rice is really good." Chef Cheng Fugui took two bites and confirmed that it was a true craftsmanship. "How did you come up with this idea? Is this how you all do it here?"
Cheng Zhenzhu took a bite and thought it was indeed quite good. However, the exaggerated reactions from the dolls and treasures were probably due to the novelty of the dish. "I just randomly put it together, but I didn't expect it to taste so good."
"Very good, very good. You are like me in this respect. You have a talent in cooking..." Cheng Fugui nodded frequently.
"Dad, why didn't you see your talent and give me some? And Zhenbao, oh my, his cooking skills are really worrying." Cheng Zhenyu licked his greasy lips and joined the conversation.
Cheng Zhenbao was not convinced by this. "Sister, let's not criticize each other. We're both equally matched, okay? Do you think Sanni and the others enjoy the food you cook?"
"Stop arguing, just let Zhenzhu learn something good from me..." Cheng Fugui didn't dwell on this and ate his food with big mouthfuls.
It's really nice to live by the sea. You can always pick up some crabs and fish, so you won't starve. If you were a good cook, every meal would be delicious. Look at those prawns yesterday, the meat was quite good. None of the ones they bought were as fresh...
An hour later, just after finishing a large pot of crab stewed rice and filling her belly, Cheng Zhenyu took the initiative to clear the table and said she wanted to play two rounds of cards.
She wanted to make up for her losses! She lost several dollars yesterday and figured it was bad feng shui. She thought changing her position would definitely help. "Zhao Jiawang, where's the money you brought?"
"What money? Isn't it all with you?"
Cheng Zhenyu's expression changed.
