Chapter 439: Take it Quickly
The adults ate in silence, only glancing occasionally and not interfering.
The other side.
The corners of Zhou Shian's thin lips twitched.
He glanced at Mingyi, who was crying heartbrokenly with his mouth open.
Zhou Shian quickly put the egg back into his bowl.
Mingyi sobbed and glared at Zhou Shian like a puppy guarding its food.
Crystal beads hung on the corners of his eyelashes. Mingyi gave the egg to his sister again:
"Sister eats eggs."
“…”
The fried egg went around and ended up back in my sister's bowl.
Fortunately, Xiao Mingxia ate the egg in small bites and did not continue for another round.
The three adults at the table breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Lu Miao took a small bowl and picked up some stir-fried vegetables and placed them on the "small table" next to the armchair.
This time I used two bowls, for fear that he would start crying again like he did just now.
Fortunately, everything is fine.
"We haven't eaten many eggs at home lately, so we should have saved a few, right? Next time I make fried eggs for the kids, I'll make three, one for each child."
"OK."
Tang Mei nodded.
Lu Miao added, "Steamed egg custard is also fine. Two or three eggs can make a big bowl. Everyone can eat some."
"Next time I have a voluntary class in the countryside, I'll see if I can trade a rooster with the villagers."
Fu Jingyou followed up:
"When I have some eggs, I can hatch some chicks. I can eat both the eggs and the chicks."
“This is good.”
Lu Miao nodded in agreement.
…
Zhou Shian didn't listen carefully to the adults' conversation.
When he came, his father told him that he would stay here during the day and would pick him up at night.
Zhou Shian didn't believe it and thought his father was the same as his uncle and uncle-in-law.
No one wants him, they must want to give him away.
That's why he was so resistant when Tang Mei pulled him.
Zhou Shian was in a tense mood and felt a little uncomfortable.
But after all, he is young.
The best thing I ate at my grandma’s house in the past was vermicelli noodles during the Chinese New Year.
For three meals a day, Zhou Shian ate steamed buns made of bran and vegetables.
After arriving in the capital, I ate a few large white flour buns with my father and lived a good life for a few days.
But dry rations are no match for oily ones.
Faced with the white and shiny rice and the fried vegetables that were shiny and slippery.
Zhou Shian couldn't hold it in any longer and started to eat voraciously.
It’s so delicious!
The green vegetables are tender and crispy and taste refreshing, which is completely different from eating meat.
How can someone cook so deliciously?
Zhou Shian’s little head was filled with many questions.
After dinner, Fu Jingyou moved a wooden board into the yard.
It was a bit unreasonable for the children to always use chairs as dining tables, so he planned to nail out a small table.
Tang Mei was washing up in the kitchen while Lu Miao was taking care of the three children.
After having a hearty meal at the Fu family, Zhou Shian's resistance faded a lot, but he was still very alert and nervous.
Lu Miao wanted him to adapt as quickly as possible, so he asked the two younger children at home to surround Zhou Shian and help him get familiar with the environment.
Perhaps it is because he subconsciously has the consciousness of being an older brother in front of children younger than him.
Even though Zhou Shian was unwilling, he tried hard to cooperate.
Lu Miao was sitting in the house reading a book, but he could actually hear the voices of Dabao and Erbao coming from outside:
"Brother, this is my family's melon field. The melons grown there are delicious."
"Sister, I know."
"I'm talking about this brother..."
"I'm the older brother!"
"He is also your brother. He is older than you."
"snort!"
Dabao was obviously unhappy that his sister's attention was not on him.
I don’t know how Mingxia coaxed him, but Mingyi happily followed Zhou Shian and started calling him “brother”.
There was a commotion in the yard for a while, and then suddenly there was silence.
It took Lu Miao a while to react and he hurried out to see what was going on.
Fu Jingyou was shaving wood chips and didn't see the child.
Lu Miao was startled and looked around before finally finding someone in Tang Mei's room.
The three little ones fell asleep on the kang.
Among them, the new brother Zhou Shian was lying in the middle, with one arm resting on Mingyi's little head, and little Mingxia was lying on his chest.
The picture is quiet and beautiful.
Lu Miao had a feeling that the three little ones would get along well with each other in the future.
After watching for a while, Lu Miao moved forward quietly and carefully carried Ming Yi and Ming Xia to the side.
Let the three little ones sleep side by side, don’t press on Zhou Shian, which will cause poor blood circulation and nightmares.
Her movements were very gentle, but they still startled Zhou Shian.
The little guy was dazed, but still struggling to get off the kang.
Lu Miao pushed him back, touched his head and said:
"Sleep with your brother and sister for a while longer, okay?"
She deliberately slowed down her voice, and it was so gentle that it seemed to carry magic.
Zhou Shian lay back down dizzy.
During this period, I have to get up at 3:30 every night.
He was really too sleepy...
Zhou Shian's frown relaxed and he soon fell into a deep sleep.
Around two o'clock in the afternoon, Zhou Shian woke up on the kang in the Fu family's house, his face full of confusion and regret.
He probably couldn't understand why he was so familiar with others and went to sleep on someone else's kang.
When dealing with children's many special emotions, it is better to choose to deal with them calmly.
For example, Zhou Shian would feel annoyed and embarrassed if he brought up this matter again at this time.
Then he will most likely keep it in mind and will not be able to let it go.
Lu Miao simply skipped over the matter.
I took some time to wash a few cherry tomatoes, and asked Erbao to take Zhou Shian to wash their hands, and then each of them got two.
She gave it to Zhou Shian, who pursed his thin lips, frowned, and didn't take it.
Lu Miao turned his hand and handed it to Erbao.
Xiao Mingxia couldn't hold so many tomatoes, so he carefully held them in his pocket by pulling them with the hem of his clothes.
She ran to Zhou Shian and said in a baby voice:
"Brother, hurry up and get it! Ouch! It's going to fall, it's going to fall!"
The little girl's hands were white and small, and she could hardly hold the hem of her clothes.
There was a small tomato with a hint of yellow in the red color that had rolled to the edge of the gap in the fabric and was stuck there, about to fall off at any moment.
Xiao Mingxia took a breath and uttered a nervous "hmm" with a tearful tone. Her voice was soft and revealed a sense of anxiety.
"Brother, it's really going to fall!"
Zhou Shian pursed his lips and exhaled. His hands were bigger than Mingxia's, so he grabbed two of the tomatoes and stuffed them into Mingxia's pocket.
The other two were held firmly in his own hands.
He acted like a little adult and said seriously:
"How stupid! Next time, put it in your pocket and it won't fall out."
Xiao Mingyi didn't care about eating the tomato anymore. He quickly took a step forward and pushed Zhou Shian away, protecting his sister behind him.
"My sister is not stupid, she is very smart."
On Zhou Shian's dark little face, the two thin lips moved slightly twice. He turned his head with a "humph" and sat at the door, eating tomatoes in big, ungentlemanly mouthfuls.
Xiao Mingxia looked back and forth, gave his brother a rewarding kiss on the face, and pulled his brother along to sit next to his new brother outside the door.
That's how kids are.
Innocent and simple, not holding grudges.
