Several people walked back to the guesthouse together, and Little Shitou started to tell tales.
"Dad, Dad, Mom didn't play with us. She went to the library by herself..."
She "whispered" a complaint in Shi Peng's ear, but the sound was heard by everyone in the hall passing by. Several people burst into laughter, and even the waiter showed her beautiful dimples...
Chu Xi seriously suspected that maybe because she couldn't hold the knife anymore, he dared to tell on her. He must have found a backer. It was a waste of her time to bring him along every day...
"Okay, little stone, I really love you for nothing!"
As she spoke, Chu Xi pretended to pounce on him, causing Shitou, who was secretly looking back, to quickly act like a quail and dive directly into Shi Peng's arms...
Aqiu couldn't hold back any longer and burst out laughing.
They returned to the room after joking and playing all the way. Chu Xi poured water for everyone and brought out a plate of persimmon cakes to fill their stomachs before going out to eat later.
The two little guys, Aqiu and Xiaoshitou, were still smiling. They happily grabbed two pieces of persimmon cakes and quickly hid in the corner again, as if Chu Xi would really beat him.
Take a bite and you will find the persimmon cake is soft, sticky, fragrant and sweet.
As expected, green and pollution-free food is still delicious. Coupled with the magical spring water in his own space, Chu Xi is still very proud of the food he makes...
Seeing that Shi Peng drank the water but did not take the persimmon cake, Chu Xi picked up a piece and stretched out her slender hand to hand it directly to Shi Peng's mouth.
"Oh, dear, open your mouth..."
Shi Peng was a little stunned for a moment. He felt that his wife had become much closer to him this time. It was the kind of communication that was closer, as if there was less of a barrier between them than before...
"Try it! I made this myself. I bought persimmons from the village and dried, processed, and preserved them myself. They're so delicious! Try it!"
Seeing the playful and expectant look in front of him, Shi Peng suddenly bit Chu Xi's index finger as if playing a prank...
"ah……"
Not to mention, Chu Xi was actually frightened by the sudden "bloody mouth", causing the little guys next to him to laugh again.
If Little Stone and Aqiu hadn't puffed up their cheeks like hamsters, their laughter would have been heard far away...
After a long while, Little Stone finally stopped laughing, which made Chu Xi extremely worried. Laughing while eating could easily cause choking...
"Mom, mom, I want to make dried persimmon cakes too. They're delicious. Let's make them together next time! I can make them and give them to dad!"
"Okay, okay, little Stone is so good!"
Shi Peng hurriedly praised them, saying that such filial piety was worthy of encouragement, and of course he would also take care of Aqiu and Chuxia.
"Then I'll wait for the persimmon cakes you guys make. When the time comes, you should separate yours and mom's. I'll see whose makes the most delicious and beautiful ones. I'll bring you gifts then!"
The two girls, who were a little envious of Xiao Shitou just now, were instantly filled with smiles. They had always longed for the feeling of being cared for, loved and pampered, but their family's unfortunate experiences made family affection out of reach for them.
Now hearing what Shi Peng said, how could they not be happy? At this stage, they particularly needed this feeling of not being ignored. They did not ask for endless love and favor, but would be happy as long as they were not forgotten.
Chu Xi's sensitive mental power can easily feel the emotional changes of the two girls. She actually wants them to open their hearts and integrate into this family, but this kind of thing cannot be achieved overnight and must be done slowly.
So she didn't help them too much, but just paid more attention to them, first satisfying them materially, then influencing them from the heart, and finally becoming a real family.
