Chapter 486 Virtue
Ye Qian was speechless. If she ate like this every day, she would become a fat pig.
Seeing Ye Qian not saying anything, the three children became anxious, "No, Mom, let's eat something else tomorrow."
"Yes, yes."
"Aren't you afraid of getting fat? If you keep eating like this every day, what if you turn into piglets?" Ye Qian said this, and the children hesitated again, but only for a moment before food took over. "We're not afraid of getting fat."
"But I'm afraid that you're afraid too." Ye Qian's family has a good diet, and her children are stronger than those of other families. Although being thin is not considered beautiful nowadays, being too fat is not good either, as it makes it difficult for them to walk.
"Mom, you're worrying about nothing. We can just go for a run outside after eating." Ningning said with disdain.
Ye Qian thought for a moment and said, "What you said makes sense, but can you do it?"
"Of course I can do it, Mom, don't you believe me?" Ningning couldn't believe that Ye Qian would actually doubt his words.
Ye Qian nodded without hesitation: "Yes."
She really didn't believe in exercise. She could persist for one, two, or three days, but no one could say if she could persist for more than a few times. She was determined to lose weight and went out for a run, running 5 kilometers every day for half a year. Not only did she not lose a pound, but she gained a lot of weight because the midnight snacks nearby were too delicious. So she didn't believe in exercise, especially exercising at night.
Ye Qian didn't believe Ning Ning and became anxious, "Brother and sister, come together. One person can't hold on, but the three of us can definitely hold on."
"Who wants to run with you?" Ranran quickly distanced himself from the matter. He didn't want to run every day. He might as well go out and play.
Xixi also didn't want to run. She didn't like the smell of sweat on her body. Her brother was so annoying.
"That's a good suggestion. How about this? Forget about the evening. Let's run for an hour every morning. If you run better today, I'll cook dinner for you. If you don't run, you won't have anything to eat. How's that? It's fair, right?" Ye Qian thought her idea was fantastic. However, with the exception of Ningning, the other two children strongly opposed it. "Mom, my sister and I aren't fat, so we don't need to run."
"That's right, I don't like the smell of mom's sweat." Xixi said.
"It's because you don't move much that your health is not good. It's decided. Let's start tomorrow. It's a happy decision." After saying this, Ye Qian ignored the three children and turned around and left.
The three children stayed where they were. Except for the happy Ningning, the other two made the decision happily. We didn’t make any decision.
Ranran and Xixi glared at Ningning, but Ningning didn't care. "Don't you want to eat something delicious? How tired can it be from just running? Anyway, we get up early every morning, so how can Mom know if we really run?"
Come to think of it, it's true. Ranran thinks Ningning is right. She can just go out in the morning and come back an hour later. It's not like she won't run, she just can't run for that long. However, Xixi thinks this is not a good idea and she can't fool Ye Qian.
"You really think your mother is a god. You know everything and can even tell whether you've run or not." Ningning didn't care.
Sorry, Ye Qian really could tell, judging by her experience as a runner, that the three of them weren't blushing or breathing hard, and apart from their foreheads, there wasn't a speck of sweat on their bodies. "You told me you ran? What month is this? Do you think I'd believe you?"
Ye Qian punished the children severely for their cheating behavior. She fried a plate of chicken legs and let the three children watch her eat it all by herself. The three children groaned, but Ye Qian didn't feel sorry for them. They thought that they were cheating at such a young age. What would happen in the future? They must be punished severely. Compared with the delicious food, the punishment from her children was nothing.
Ningning didn't believe it, so she pretended the next day. Her face was sunburned red, and although she didn't sweat, she was splashed with water. Ye Qian saw through it again. It seems that a little chicken leg can't be taught a lesson, so this time the punishment was even more severe. Few people can resist the aroma of spicy hot pot, and with sesame paste and coriander, the aroma is even more overwhelming. The three children still begged to have a taste, but Ye Qian was indifferent.
On the third day, he was still not behaving well. Ye Qian could see that he ran away for a while, but only for a short while, and Ye Qian did not compromise.
Ning Ning was completely stunned. After a moment, she asked Ye Qian, "Mom, did you follow us and watch it from beginning to end? Otherwise, how could you know so much about it?"
"Yes, I have my eyes on your back, watching you from beginning to end. You must have had a great time along the way, looking here and there. But you didn't run, didn't keep your word, and still want to eat? No way."
The three children were stunned. As for whether she followed the children, Ye Qian said that she really didn't, because the running experience of half a year was so painful and so wonderful that she still remembered it vividly after many years. A few days ago, when she came back from running, she was almost out of breath. She was panting and didn't want to talk. She wanted to lie down and sleep soundly. How could she have time to think about food?
The three children were obviously not in good condition. Even if they were young and in good spirits, it was impossible for them not to be out of breath. As for looking around, it was entirely due to Ye Qian's understanding of the children. These three children, especially Ningning, loved to join in the fun and would go wherever there was fun. The street where they ran in the morning was not very lively, but there were quite a few people. Given their personalities, they would definitely walk around and take a look, so Ye Qian said it so confidently.
Obviously, today's conversation was effective. On the fourth day, the children really started running. When they came back, their condition was almost the same as when she was first there. Ye Qian also expected that the children would definitely not be lazy today, so she made glutinous rice wrapped in fried dough sticks early in the morning. The glutinous rice and black rice were soaked the night before, and the fried dough sticks were also kneaded and fried in the morning. She got up to prepare it as soon as the children left the house. After coming back, she rested for a while and made it in time for breakfast.
A simple breakfast is ready with a glutinous rice wrapped in fried dough sticks, a bowl of soy milk, shrimp dumplings and braised pork buns.
Ye Qian had just stood at the table that morning when the children returned from their run. They were stunned by the breakfast on the table, gasping for breath and pausing several times before they could finish a complete sentence: "Mom,...why...are there so...many...delicious...foods...today?"
"Because you exercised seriously today." Ye Qian said to the children with a smile.
The three children's legs went weak instantly and they all fell to the ground, looking up at the sky in silence. What the hell, they were really exercising seriously. Did their mother really have eyes behind their backs?
"Hurry up and get up. Why are you lying on the ground? You're so dirty. You don't have to wash your own clothes, right?" Ye Qian couldn't stand the children's behavior.
"Mom, these clothes are in the washing machine."
