Because she was worried, Shen Qingli didn't sleep well that night. As soon as she closed her eyes, she thought of the considerate little girl in her dream.
I gradually fell asleep in the second half of the night, but ended up being in a half-asleep, half-awake state the entire time. By six or seven in the morning, I simply couldn't fall asleep.
She simply decided not to sleep. It was a rare opportunity for her to get up early, so she decided to make some breakfast for her family.
Damn! This sleep is really tiring!
No one in the family got up yet. When Shen Qingli passed by the living room, he saw the sealed egg cake on the table and remembered what his father said yesterday.
She paused, walked over, opened the oil-paper package, and took out two.
She looked around and whispered, "Are you there? Dad bought some egg cakes. I put them here. Have some."
After saying that, she stood there for a while and then went to the kitchen.
First, wash the rice and put it into the pot to prepare a pot of white rice porridge, then quickly knead the dough and roll out the pastry to make thousand-layer pancakes and sauce-flavored pancakes.
The Thousand Layer Pancake has a crispy and fragrant crust and a soft and crispy inside. The Sauce Pancake is filled with sauce and generously sprinkled with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
Shen Qingli likes to eat the sauce-flavored pancakes with a thick layer of sauce on them. It tastes delicious.
It was a rare opportunity for her to make breakfast, so she took out some handmade buns from her space and placed a steamer on the rice porridge pot, which made it easier to heat up the buns.
The Shen family's own house has a large kitchen. Not only does it have a clay stove and a ground pot, but it also has a gas stove and a coal stove. However, Shen Qingli still likes the rice cooked in the ground pot the most. It has a strong aroma and the rice cooked over firewood is very fragrant.
When she heard the noise coming from the kitchen, Aunt Liu was the first to get up. She got up and washed up. The two children also woke up. She was busy making milk powder for the two children, changing their diapers and clothes, washing their faces and applying cream. She was the last one to go downstairs.
When Shen Ping saw her come out, he hurried upstairs to pick up another baby. After all, Aunt Liu could only carry one baby downstairs at a time. He didn't go to work today, his son-in-law was home, and he had to accompany them to the Ye family.
Seeing that everyone was up, Shen Qingli quickened her pace, busying herself inside and outside, and no longer had time to think about random things. Soon the rice porridge was cooked, and the pancakes were out of the pan.
While no one was looking, he took a bottle of sauce from the space and poured it into the bowl and spread it all over the pancake. He couldn't help but cut and ate a piece of the pancake first.
Otherwise, Meng Xiao would be considered lucky.
He drove over just as his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had brought the delicious breakfast to the table.
The more the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more she likes him and likes him more and more.
Gigi Lai quickly asked him to sit down and have breakfast. In order to see his wife earlier, Meng Xiao came early and did not have time to go to the cafeteria for breakfast. Moreover, he had borrowed the team's car and had to rush back before noon.
Time is tight.
"Dad, Mom, Aunt Liu." He greeted them one by one.
Finally, he sat down next to Shen Qingli, picked up a piece of sauce-flavored pancake and put it in his mouth. As soon as he tasted it, he knew it was the work of his wife.
After swallowing the cake, he said to Shen Qingli:
"You're quite diligent today, getting up so early."
In fact, what he really meant was that Shen Qingli usually slept until noon, and he must not have slept well to get up so early to make breakfast today.
But the words have different meanings when spoken by different people, such as him, a straight man.
Shen Qingli frowned and gave him a look:
"What? You mean I'm lazy and wake up late?"
Meng Xiao was pointed out by her and immediately felt that his words were not appropriate, so he quickly made amends:
"No, no, I mean, you must not have slept well last night if you get up so early to make breakfast. Isn't this just out of concern for you?"
Shen Qingli snorted as he tore the bun:
"That's more like it."
Gigi Lai glared at her daughter slightly, but she was still happy in her heart. Her daughter was more lively and spoiled in front of Meng Xiao, which was also good, which showed that the two had a good relationship.
She turned around and asked Meng Xiao, "What do you want to eat for lunch? Mom's going to buy some groceries."
Meng Xiao was drinking porridge, and when he heard this, he wiped his mouth and said:
"Mom, we won't be eating at home at noon. After we go to Ye's house, we have to leave. This is a car borrowed from our boss in the team. He needs it for lunch."
"In such a hurry?" Shen Ping frowned. He had originally wanted to invite the Ye family to come for dinner. But since the child was in a hurry, there was nothing he could do.
"I've prepared some gifts, just bring them over later."
"Dad, I prepared it too. I bought it on the road when I came here just now."
"It's okay, take them all. The more gifts, the less blame."

"Hey! Old Shen, just come if you want to. What are you doing with these things? You are being so polite!" He Yu and Ye Chaochen came forward when they heard the sound at the door.
"What's the big deal, Meng Xiao, Qingqing, this is your Uncle Ye and Aunt He."
"Uncle Ye. Aunt He."
"Hey, Qingqing, long time no see. Meng Xiao, come on, let's all go inside and sit down. Don't stand at the door and talk. Lao Shen, Xiaozi, come in and sit down."
"These are our nephew and niece, they are so cute, come and give them a hug."
He Yu fell in love with the two babies at first sight. They were so cute. He and Ye Chaochen each took one.
As soon as they sat down on the sofa, Old Master Ye came out of the study slowly. He was old and walked slowly.
They were all well-educated and polite people, and they all stood up at the same time.
"dad"
"Uncle Ye."
"Grandpa Ye."
"Hey! Everyone, sit down."
After the old man came back, he met Shen Ping and Li Zi, but he had not seen the grown-up Shen Qingli. However, he still locked onto Shen Qingli's position at a glance:
"Xiao Qingqing, do you still remember grandpa?"
It was completely the tone of an elder expressing love and doting to a younger generation. After all these years, it was obvious how much he loved Shen Qingli back then.
Shen Qingli walked over and helped the old man sit down:
"Of course I remember Grandpa. He loved me so much."
In her memory, the old man really loved her, even more than her biological grandfather.
"You've grown up, Xiao Qingqing has a child now. Courtier, let me hold the child."
He sat closer to Ye Chaochen, so naturally he took the child from him.
"That's great, that's great." He looked at Shen Qingli, his loving eyes couldn't be faked.
After everyone chatted for a while, Shen Ping got to the point: "Today, the main focus is on Meng Xiao and Qingqing. They must come home. If it weren't for Mingchuan, the child would be in danger."
The Ye family waved their hands and said, "Fortunately, both children are fine. Don't worry too much. Mingchuan would save anyone."
The Shen family members all heard that Ye Mingchuan might not have told the truth to his family.
Just as they thought, Ye Mingchuan only told his family that he was slightly wounded by a gunshot, but did not say that he had a near-death experience.
So the Ye family didn't know how critical the situation was.
