Chapter 44 She cried, but she was faking it.



I can eat the braised turtle with radish, but not the other two dishes.

The soup she ate was still turtle and chicken soup, the broth was thick and white, and the chicken oil was bright yellow.

The gelatinous texture of the turtle skirt is very fresh and fragrant, but it's a bit sticky. Besides the deliciousness of the ingredients themselves, it's also thanks to the love from my family.

Su Tiantian was in Su Chengguo's arms. Su Chengguo was eating turtle meat and said to Su Tiantian with a smile, "Tiantian, let me tell you, this turtle meat is especially delicious."

Su Chengguo really enjoys teasing Su Tiantian.

As Su Tiantian listened to him, her mouth watered.

Seeing Su Chengguo's cheerful expression, Su Tiantian decided to scare him a little.

Su Tiantian pouted: "Wow—"

She cried, but she was faking it.

Su Tiantian is usually so well-behaved, but this one shout successfully attracted the attention of the whole family.

Su Dahai frowned and yelled at Su Chengguo, "Do you even know how to hold a child?"

Zhou Chunmei leaned over to look: "What's wrong? Why is Tiantian crying?"

Upon seeing this, Zhou Chunmei laughed. Su Tiantian was faking her tears; no tears had actually come out.

But seeing Su Chengguo's anxious and helpless look, Zhou Chunmei decided not to tell him, letting him tease her on his own and make her anxious.

"It's okay, it's okay, he made him cry, let him comfort him himself."

Zhou Chunmei smiled and said, "Please eat in peace."

She winked at Su Luo, giving her a meaningful look.

Su Luo only saw her second sister-in-law's eyes twitching. She didn't know what it meant, but she understood that Zhou Chunmei was telling her not to worry.

So Su Luo ate her meal in peace.

Zhou Chunmei gave the whole family a meaningful look, and this time everyone fell silent.

Liu Xiaohua suppressed a laugh and said to Su Chengguo, "Your wife is right. You made her cry, so you should comfort her."

Su Chengguo quickly and gently coaxed, "Sweetie, don't cry, I'm your uncle."

When Su Tiantian's wicked sense of humor kicks in, nothing works.

She cried out twice, and when Su Chengguo wanted to eat meat, she started crying again.

Su Chengguo couldn't eat well anymore; she was really worried.

Seeing his state, Zhou Chunmei felt sorry for him and couldn't bear to tease him anymore. She smiled and said to him, "You silly boy, your niece is just teasing you."

Su Chengguo was completely confused: "What do you mean?"

He seemed to understand, yet not quite.

He genuinely doesn't understand.

Zhou Chunmei said with a smile, "Tian Tian has always been greedy for food. You deliberately ate meat to tease her, but she couldn't eat any. So this little one teased you back. Now neither of you, uncle and nephew, can eat any."

"You're dumbfounded, aren't you, kid?"

Su Dahai couldn't help but sigh.

Su Chenggong and Li Xue could no longer hold back and burst into laughter.

Su Chengguo suddenly realized what was going on. Embarrassed, he touched his head and said, "Why is the little guy who usually smiles at me crying all day?"

"Look, Tian Tian didn't even shed a tear."

Zhou Chunmei showed it to Su Chengguo.

Su Tiantian was faking her tears; she only made a sound of crying without shedding any tears. It was only because Su Chengguo was anxious that she didn't notice.

"You little rascal, you're so clever! You even fooled your second uncle, who's the smartest guy in the family."

Su Chengguo looked at Su Tiantian helplessly. This little one was deliberately teasing him. What could he do but spoil her?

"Oh!"

I'm sorry, Second Uncle.

Su Tiantian responded with a childlike voice.

Su Chengguo smiled and shook her head: "Never mind, Second Uncle has no choice but to spoil Tiantian."

Su Chengguo was eating meat, so he dared not show off now.

The braised turtle and potatoes were eaten completely, and even the broth was used to drizzle over the rice and other dishes. Only a little bit of the mackerel ball soup was left.

After lunch, Su Luo carried Su Tiantian back to the house.

Su Xuemin and his children are playing shuttlecock.

Su Dahai and the others were tidying up their fishing gear.

It rained that night.

During dinner, Su Dahai said, "Judging from the weather, it's going to rain for a few days. Let's rest tomorrow and go to the market the day after tomorrow."

“Your mother can stay at home so that A-Luo can be looked after when needed. If the children want to go, we can take them along to play.”

Su Dahai addressed everyone.

Li Xue and Zhou Chunmei were both very happy; it had been a long time since they had gone to the market.

"Make a list of everything you want to buy so we can buy it all at once and not forget anything."

Su Dahai gave another word of advice.

"Okay, thank you, Dad."

Zhou Chunmei and Li Xue thanked them together.

It's been a long time since I went to the market. It seems like I have a lot to buy, but actually, there aren't that many things I want to buy.

But we still need to discuss and make a note of what we should buy.

Su Dahai then looked at Su Luo and said, "Luo, if there's anything you want to buy, just tell your mom."

Su Luo wanted to shake her head and say no, but before she could speak, she saw Liu Xiaohua nod gently to her, so Su Luo smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, thank you, Dad."

After the meal, it was time to clean up and wash.

When falling asleep at night.

Liu Xiaohua said to Su Luo, "The day after tomorrow, your dad and the others will go to the market to buy you some medicinal herbs to make soup to nourish you, and they'll also buy you some red date soft candy."

"Mom, I'm so healthy now, I don't need any more supplements."

Su Luo leaned against Liu Xiaohua, her heart filled with gratitude.

Since she returned, Liu Xiaohua has been looking for medicinal herbs in the homes of people she knows in the village, and she adds them to her soup every day. Now she has good blood circulation and plenty of energy.

“Your eldest and second sisters-in-law have good taste. I’ll ask them to help you choose a couple of outfits so you can wear new ones after you finish your postpartum period.”

Liu Xiaohua gently stroked Su Luo's hair and said.

"I already have clothes, I don't need to buy new ones."

Su Luo felt her nose sting again.

She hadn't had any new clothes in the two years she had been married to Yi Guohai.

Many of the clothes she brought back had holes, but because she was good at handicrafts, they weren't visible unless you looked closely. However, Liu Xiaohua felt sorry for her and noticed all of this.

"Mom, I really don't need anything. I'll be content as long as Tian Tian and I have a home to shelter us from the wind and rain."

Su Luo choked up.

Liu Xiaohua patted her arm and said, "Mom knows you don't want to cause trouble for the family, but you have to know that this is not trouble. Just like before you got married, you are still your parents' daughter and your older brothers' sister."

Su Luo didn't need to say anything; she could make the decision herself.

Liu Xiaohua reached out and hugged Su Tiantian's swaddle, smiling as she said, "We also need to buy something for our Tiantian. We'll buy her a string of wind chimes to hang on her rocking chair, the kind with many colors, she'll like to look at them. We'll also buy her a little plush doll to keep her company."

Su Tiantian smiled at Liu Xiaohua.

"Ah~"

Okay, okay, I like it!

Su Tiantian listened obediently; she understood. She had thought that since she was a baby, she wouldn't need to use it.

But as long as it's part of her life, she's happy.

"Sweetie, sleep well, have sweet dreams and smiles..."

Liu Xiaohua gently hummed a nursery rhyme and patted Su Tiantian's blanket softly.

Su Tiantian immediately yawned, the sound was really... *snoring*

Su Tiantian fell asleep, and Liu Xiaohua turned to Su Luo: "You should go to sleep too."

Su Luo hugged Liu Xiaohua: "Mom, thank you, goodnight."

Liu Xiaohua hugged Su Luo, feeling the same as before; her good daughter hadn't changed at all. Liu Xiaohua thought to herself, "Baby, sweet dreams."
