Chapter 62 Dessert Shop and Chess Draw
Shang Yanci seemed not to notice where her gaze was. After finishing his instructions, he prepared to leave the kitchen.
Pei Yuning had just woken up, his legs were soft and weak, and he didn't want to stand on tiptoe, so he held the matcha cake in one hand and hooked Shang Yanci's ink-colored tie with the other hand and pulled it down.
Shang Yanci bent down accordingly, and Pei Yuning kissed the cream at the corner of his mouth and licked it between his lips.
The fragrance of matcha, the sourness of raspberries, and the sweetness of cream are intertwined.
Shang Yanci placed one hand on the center island and the other on Pei Yuning's waist. He nonchalantly cooperated with her in the kiss but did not take the initiative to seduce her.
The attraction of Go was so great that Shang Yanci didn't even care about kissing her. It was estimated that his whole heart had already flown to the chess game.
Pei Yuning loosened his tie and stopped kissing him.
Shang Yanci loosened his hand on her waist at the right time, patted her lower back, and said softly, "Madam, I'm going to play chess."
After saying this, he turned and left without waiting for Pei Yuning to respond.
All right! If she kisses Shang Yanci again before midnight, she will be a piglet!
Pei Yuning looked at his back and took a big bite of the matcha cake, her cheeks puffed up.
Shang Yanci returned to the chess table and nodded in apology: "Sorry for the long wait."
Pei Yunzhi said calmly: "It's your turn now."
Shang Yanci lowered his eyes and looked at the black chess piece that Pei Yanzhi had just placed on the chessboard. After thinking for a few moments, he placed the white chess piece.
Pei Yuning sat on the sofa, watching a movie and eating matcha cake.
After a while, Mrs. Pei and Mr. Pei came downstairs.
Pei Yuning looked at the two elderly people and said, "Grandpa and grandma, come and have some matcha cake. The fillings are raspberry, cherry, mango, and finger lime. What flavor do you want?"
Madam Pei: “Mango.”
Master Pei: "Cherries."
Pei Yuning cut the food into pieces, put them on plates, and handed them to the two men.
Master Pei brought the chess table over and watched the game while eating.
Mrs. Pei sat on the sofa and watched a movie with Pei Yuning.
Recalling an interesting incident, Mrs. Pei said with a smile: "I still remember that when you were a child, you liked to eat egg tarts from a dessert shop in the south of the city. One time, it was raining heavily and your father was stuck in a traffic jam when he went to buy you some. You waited from noon until the dessert chef at home made a table full of exquisite and sweet cakes, but you didn't even look at them. It was not until your father came back in the evening that you ate the egg tarts you had been longing for. You were so pitiful that you shed tears while eating them, and you said that you must marry a man who runs a dessert shop in the future so that you can eat delicious egg tarts anytime."
Pei Yuning had a vague impression of this incident. When she heard Mrs. Pei mention it again, her ears turned red with embarrassment: "I was still young at that time, and children's words were innocent."
Madam Pei joked: "With Yanci's skills, you're more than qualified to open a dessert shop."
Pei Yuning: "Grandma!"
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about it." Madam Pei coaxed, "Watch a movie, watch a movie."
Pei Yuning glanced at Shang Yanci who was playing chess, picked up the Yangzhi Ganlu on the table and took a sip.
Pei Yuchen, wearing a neat suit, walked down the stairs like a catwalk and looked at Old Madam Pei: "Grandma, I won't be at home for dinner tonight. I'm going to the party with Qingshu."
Madam Pei smiled lovingly: "Okay, go ahead."
Pei Yuning: "Brother, do you want to eat matcha cake?"
"No, I have to go pick up Qingshu right now." Pei Yuchen said, "She was watching a musical starring a friend in the south of the city today. She bought you some egg tarts from that dessert shop. I'll ask her assistant to bring them to you later."
Sure enough, no matter whether it is people or things, they cannot withstand the scrutiny.
Pei Yuning: "Okay, brother, thank Sister Qingshu for me."
Pei Yuchen laughed casually: "Why are we thanking each other as a family? Put away the work-related stuff."
Pei Yuning: "Only those who are registered in the household registration book are family. Brother, you have to work harder, really."
Pei Yuchen raised his hand and pinched her face: "You are such a little brat, let's go."
Pei Yuning pointed at his back and complained: "Grandma, he bullied me!"
Madam Pei smiled and said, "When he comes back, grandma will hold him down for you, and we will pinch him back."
Pei Yuning: "Okay!"
It was approaching evening.
On the chessboard, the black and white pieces of Pei Yunzhi and Shang Yanci formed a "four-robbery chain" situation, with multiple robbery points appearing, causing the game to enter an infinite cycle of robbery.
This is generally called a "draw", and the game can no longer proceed normally. If this happens in a Go game, an extra game is usually required to determine the final winner.
Master Pei said: "This game is a draw. You have been playing for nearly seven hours today. You are exhausted. Take a break. Stand up and walk around. Don't take advantage of your youth and ignore your waist and neck."
The two players responded and collected the black and white chess pieces.
After dinner, the family went for a walk in the back garden.
Shang Yanci's phone rang. It was Fu Siqi calling. He didn't avoid people. He answered the call while walking and turned on the speakerphone.
Fu Siqi: "Yanci, do you and your wife have anything to do this weekend?"
Shang Yanci looked at Pei Yuning and saw her shaking her head before replying, "Nothing, what's wrong?"
Fu Siqi: "There is something going on in the private kitchen, so I have to go with Shuying. Yangyang just recovered from a cold a few days ago, so it's not suitable to take her around. I was going to send her to the main house, but she said she wanted to go to the fairy sister she met last time. Is it convenient for you?"
Pei Yuning chuckled and said, "It's convenient. Ah Yan and I are at Yuhua Mingyuan. Please bring it over."
Fu Siqi: "Okay, sorry for the trouble."
Pei Yuning: "You're welcome. We are one family and we shouldn't talk behind each other's backs."
Hearing this, Shang Yanci's mouth curled up and he bent down to kiss her.
After hanging up the phone, Pei Yuning dodged and refused to let him kiss her. He said seriously, "The elders are still here, please be careful about the occasion."
Shang Yanci chuckled and rubbed the back of her hand affectionately with his fingertips.
After the walk, Fu Siqi drove to the main house. He got out of the car holding Yangyang, with a furry pink bag slung over his shoulder.
Yangyang saw Pei Yuning and called sweetly, "Fairy Sister."
"Yangyang baby." Pei Yuning stretched out his hands and held her in his arms.
Yangyang looked at Shang Yanci next to Pei Yuning and said obediently, "Uncle."
Shang Yanci smiled gently and did not bother with the child's name.
Fu Siqi handed the bag on her shoulder to her friend: "Yanci, inside is Yangyang's skirt, pajamas, toiletries, milk powder, storybooks..."
Shang Yanci took the bag and said, "I'll take a look at it myself, talk about the important points, and then go about my own business. Yangyang doesn't need to worry about this."
Fu Siqi: "The 'Child Raising Manual' in the bag records Yangyang's habits and preferences. Just follow it. If you have any questions, call me. She is very well behaved and doesn't make trouble."
Shang Yanci: "Okay, I will take a closer look."
Fu Siqi touched Yangyang's head and said, "Dad will come to pick Yangyang up tomorrow afternoon. Be a good boy here with Fairy Sister, okay?"
Yangyang: "I know, Dad."
Pei Yuning thought of her aunt and asked, "Is Yangyang allergic to cats?"
Fu Siqi: "No, she has no allergies."
Pei Yuning: "Okay, you can go to City Z without worry, A Yan and I will take good care of her."
"Okay, let's go." Fu Siqi sat in the back seat of the car, lowered the window and looked at Yangyang.
Yangyang didn't cry or make a fuss, she just waved goodbye obediently.
Pei Yuning carried Yangyang into the main house, not wanting her to keep looking at the car's receding figure.
Shang Yanci: "Madam, let me hold Yangyang."
"No need." Pei Yuning said, "Ayan, take a look at what is written in the "Child Raising Manual", summarize the key points, and tell me later. I will watch cartoons with Yangyang first. The child has just changed the environment and will not be able to adapt well."
Shang Yanci: "Okay."
After entering the hall, Mrs. Pei and Mr. Pei were very surprised to see Yangyang.
Yangyang was brought up to be very polite: "Grandpa and grandma, my name is Fu Yuyang, and I am three years old this year."
Madam Pei smiled and said, "Yangyang is three years old now, so cute!"
Mr. Pei handed Yangyang a piece of egg pie.
Yangyang took it and said, "Thank you, Grandpa."
Old Master Pei's heart was about to melt, as if he was back to the time when he was coaxing Pei Yuning as a baby.
Pei Yuning played the educational cartoon Yangyang had watched before: "Baby Yangyang, how about watching this?"
Yangyang ate the egg tarts in small bites and nodded: "Okay."
Shang Yanci read the nearly twenty pages of "The Handbook of Raising a Child" carefully and put it in his bag. He then turned to look at Pei Yuning who was discussing the protagonist of the cartoon with Yangyang.
A twenty-year-old child still has a childish nature.
She's so cute. I want to kiss her until she cries and then comfort her.
