Since Yan Mo prepared fresh ingredients every day, Si Ze's arrival disrupted her daily routine. She did not go to buy ingredients this morning. In the end, she could only prepare some quick-cooked meals for the three little ones.
"What is this black thing?" Si Ruicong said unhappily as he looked at the black thing in front of him that was still steaming.
Si Yin rolled his eyes:
"If you don't like it, you don't have to eat it." After saying that, she picked up the spoon and started eating. She was a little resistant at first, but when she took a spoonful into her mouth, her eyes lit up immediately. It tasted much better than she had imagined.
Si Ruizhi didn't say anything, just ate silently, without any expression, and didn't praise whether the food was delicious or not. It seemed that he was eating just to fill his stomach.
After spending two hours together, Yan Mo probably understood the personalities of his three children. The eldest seemed very cold, but in fact he was most like Si Ze, cold on the outside but warm on the inside. The second child, although talkative, was actually still wary of her at noon, and even wrapped himself up in his own way, making it impossible for people to get close to him. Finally, the third child was the one who was the closest to him, which made Yan Mo very pleased.
Silent comfort:
"The store is currently short of food. This is just a few desserts. Let's go buy something after we finish eating. I'll make you something delicious tonight."
"Okay, okay." Si Yin's mouth was full, and she responded vaguely, clapping her little hands happily.
"You're so embarrassing." Si Ruicong looked disgusted.
"Si Ruicong, you want to die!" Si Yin was furious and looked like he was ready to fight.
Yan Mo quickly smiled and tried to smooth things over: "Cong'er, try this dessert, it should be quite good."
"This thing is so ugly, I won't eat it."
Before he finished speaking, a big hand slapped the back of his head, and then the dessert in front of Si Ruicong was taken away:
"It's a waste to give it to you, a fool. If you don't eat it, I'll eat it."
Then, with Si Ruiming clearly not wanting it but unwilling to give it to others, Si Ze slowly and leisurely ate the dessert made by his wife, bite by bite.
He didn't know if the dessert was as delicious as his daughter said, or if it was just average. He only knew that his heart was filled with sweetness. That long-lost taste was what he had been thinking about day and night. He squinted his eyes comfortably as he savored it. Afterwards, he didn't forget to feed Yan Mo beside him a mouthful:
"Momo, you should try it too, it's delicious."
As soon as this action appeared, everyone in the room looked back and forth at Si Ze and Yan Mo.
Looking at those three innocent eyes, she didn't know whether to eat it or not. Her face gradually turned red, and she began to wink at Si Ze, signaling him to take it away.
However, Si Ze seemed not to see Yan Mo's gesture and moved the spoon closer to Yan Mo's mouth.
Faced with this situation, Yan Mo couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. If there was no one around, it would be fine, but these three little guys are still so young, this is not suitable for children! This is like roasting her on an iron rack! Beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead.
Finally, it was their youngest daughter Si Yin who spoke:
"Mom, Dad is feeding you, just eat it!" After saying that, he looked at Yan Mo expectantly.
His daughter had already started talking, so Yan Mo had no choice but to blush and open his mouth slightly to drink the spoonful of dessert that Si Ze handed to him.
"Okay, okay." Si Yin clapped excitedly again: "Daddy is feeding Mommy."
Children's happiness comes so easily. Seeing this scene, Si Ruizhi, who has always been aloof, and Si Ruicong, who always shows disdain, both curled up their lips and laughed.
The precedent had been set. From then on, Si Ze focused on Yan Mo, and he would occasionally eat a few bites. The family of five had three bowls of dessert, and that's how they ate.
Oh, yes, Si Ruicong didn’t. He just watched his brother and sister, father and mother eating like that, and he got up and cursed.
Soon, they finished their dessert. Yan Mo locked the shop door and took the three little ones, plus Si Ze, to buy groceries.
"Hey, this car..." Si Ze looked at the small yellow car that stopped in front of him in confusion. He seemed to remember something and looked at the car.
"What's wrong?" Yan Mo opened the back door, put the three little guys in the car, and asked in confusion.
Their meeting was destined, otherwise, how could they meet twice in one day? Si Ze laughed and shook his head:
"It's okay." After saying that, he got into the driver's seat, started the car and left the yard.
Yan Mo was not interested in this and had no intention of asking further questions. He began to chat with the children actively.
Time always passes quickly in joy. In the blink of an eye, they arrived at the vegetable market. The three little guys were obviously not used to such occasions. In the end, Yan Mo took them to the amusement park, and the chore of buying vegetables was left to Si Ze.
As for what happened afterwards, Si Ze still regretted that he shouldn't have asked Xun Jiage to go back so soon. He should have let him finish buying groceries before going back.
However, regret is the most useless thing. Then, such a scene appeared in the vegetable market. Si Ze, who was wearing expensive clothes, was squeezed with those aunts and uncles in the vegetable market. As a result, he spent twice as much money to buy half of the vegetables of others, and let those aunts take advantage of his good looks for free.
So, when they set out on their journey home, Si Ze was still feeling scared.
However, the four of them were still discussing their experience at the amusement park, and no one paid any attention to Si Ze, which was exactly what he wanted.
Just as he was breathing a sigh of relief, Yan Mo took some time off. She silently opened her bag, took out five hundred yuan, handed it to Si Ze, and explained:
"This is money for groceries. I see what you bought. Five hundred should be enough."
For Yan Mo now, the prices of all the dishes are clear at a glance.
Although Si Ze bought a lot, Jiangcheng is remote and the prices are lower than in many places. She estimated that the vegetables Si Ze bought cost more than 500 yuan.
Si Ze was no longer surprised by Yan Mo's behavior, but he looked at the money she handed over and fell into deep thought.
"Not enough?" she asked uncertainly.
Si Ze didn't answer, but Yan Mo thought it was his consent.
Yan Mo silently took out another hundred yuan: "That's enough now!"
Still the same reaction, she took out another two hundred, and again, she was shocked and took out another two hundred:
"Isn't that enough?" Yan Mo couldn't find any adjectives to describe his current mood.
She couldn't help but sigh: "Si Ze, you no longer care about Zheng Hong. If you continue like this, these three little guys will probably starve to death if they follow you."
"Then I'll let you manage the money." As he said that, he actually took out his wallet and put all the money into Yan Mo's hand.
"I don't want to." Yan Mo returned it directly, and the topic came to an end.
After a while, they returned to the store. One advantage of running a restaurant was that everything was fully prepared and they didn't have to prepare anything.
