Chapter 41 Eat spicy food to save face for your old father
Shi Zhufeng was carrying the greedy cat.
“You can’t handle spicy food!”
Ran Le argued: "I can eat it."
Shi Zhufeng stated the facts: "I can't eat it."
Ran Le looked at Shi Zhufeng in condemnation: "I haven't even eaten yet, why are you complaining that I can't eat."
Ran Xuejuan found where the others were. They had not finished selling yet, so he looked back at the father and son who were confronting each other.
"Le Le, let's go see how your brother Qi Yu is doing."
Ran Le hesitated for a moment, but the roast duck would not taste good if it got cold, so he could eat a piece first and then go see Brother Qi Yu.
He stared at the roast duck, motionless.
Ran Xuejuan raised her eyebrows slightly. It seemed that the little guy would not give up until he had the roast duck today.
Shi Zhufeng asked helplessly: "Do you really want to eat?"
Ran Le nodded very quickly.
Shi Zhufeng sighed.
"You definitely can't eat it."
The little guy has hardly touched anything spicy in the past month at home. Because of the little guy's arrival, his family's menu has been changed, and the seasonings have been kept as small as possible. The roast duck outside smells strong, spicy, oily and salty, and is only suitable for him and Ran Xuejuan to eat secretly.
Ran Le disagreed: "Wotun is definitely edible."
Shi Zhufeng handed the roast duck to Ran Xuejuan.
Ran Le immediately turned around in Shi Zhufeng's hand and smiled wearily at Ran Xue.
Ran Xuejuan raised her eyebrows. Was she planning to let him stop it?
Shi Zhufeng let Ran Le go.
"I'm going to buy something, you keep an eye on him."
Ran Le hugged Ran Xuejuan's legs and said, "Baby, let's eat duck together."
Ran Xuejuan pretended to be indifferent: "I don't want to eat."
Ran Le hugged from one leg to the other: "Eat it, it smells delicious."
Ran Xuejuan: "Ran Le, what did I just tell you in the car?"
Ran Le was puzzled. What? What did he say?
There was a smile in Ran Xuejuan's eyes, but his little head really couldn't remember too many things, so he hid his smile.
"Didn't I tell you not to run around when you get down here?"
Ran Le: "No one ran away."
Ran Xuejuan: “?”
He said coldly: "So you just wander around?"
"Look at how many people are here. Just now your father and I turned around to get something and you disappeared. Where did you go? You went to the roast duck place and asked a stranger for roast duck, right?"
Ran Le became obedient instantly, blinking his big watery eyes at Ran Xuejuan.
Ran Xuejuan met Ran Le's eyes, paused for a moment, and then continued, "We are recording a program today, so there is a photographer following you. If there is no photographer, it is very dangerous for you to do this. You know you are cute. If you are taken away by someone, there are so many people here. What will your father and I do? We can't catch up with you, and we don't even know where the bad guys took you. What will you do then?"
Ran Le thought about it. If he was taken away by bad guys, it would be like what was shown on TV.
The bad guys would secretly put a sack over him, and he couldn't see anything. When he wanted to call for his father, the bad guys covered his mouth and said, "No one will come to save you even if you scream your throat out."
Then he was taken away by them. He wanted to use his cat fist, but he was a two-legged beast now and could not run fast or flexibly. He was subdued by the bad guys in no time. There were many people in the vegetable market, and the big father and the little father could not catch up with him. Finally, he was thrown into a corner and watched Shi Zhufeng and Ran Xuexue pass by him. His mouth was blocked, his hands and feet were tied, and he could only watch with tears in his eyes as the two fathers were anxious but could not find him, and he even vomited blood.
But he couldn't do anything.
Ran Le was so scared that his pupils stood up. No, no, he didn’t want to be captured by the bad guys.
He lowered his head and apologized: "I made a mistake. I won't run around anymore."
He didn't want to be captured by the bad guys, and he didn't want to leave his two fathers. He had found them with great difficulty.
"I, I will be obedient from now on. Don't scratch me."
Ran Xuejuan looked at Ran Le's expression and knew that the little guy must have thought a lot. He suppressed his curiosity and said, "That's the first thing. The second thing is that it was very impolite to ask for food from passers-by just now."
Ran Le was holding Ran Xuejuan. Seeing that the photographer was still around, his father was also relieved. He raised his eyes and asked, "Why are you not polite?"
Ran Xuejuan squatted down.
"There's a camera behind you, right?"
Ran Le nodded.
Ran Xuejuan: "Then your behavior of asking her for food is coercion. If someone doesn't want to give it to you, but has to give it to you because there is a camera behind you, you should know that what the camera shoots will be broadcast on TV. She is worried that if she doesn't give it to you, she will be scolded by others. You don't want her to be scolded either."
Ran Le didn't understand.
"Why would you be scolded for not giving me a nest?"
If the lady is willing to give him food, it means she is a good lady. If she is unwilling to give it to him, it doesn’t mean she is a bad lady.
Ran Xuejuan: "Because you are small and cute, there will be audiences who like you. Audiences who like you don't want to see you can't eat what you want, so they will scold the little sister to help you, so you can't make such requests to others in the future, understand."
Ran Le thought for a long time. Bipeds are so troublesome and complicated.
It's really hard to understand.
If you like someone, do you have to help him scold others? If he doesn't like someone, it's because there are things about that person that he doesn't like, but these have nothing to do with the person who likes him, so why scold him?
Just like he doesn't like the dog that steals his food because the dog steals his food.
But he also doesn't like the two-legged beasts scolding dogs, because the dogs will snatch his food because they are too hungry.
Ran Xuejuan waited for the little guy to think about it slowly. It didn't matter if he couldn't figure it out now. Just tell him the truth first. When he grows up, he will slowly understand many things.
Touching the hair on Ran Le's belly, the mulberry juice was very sticky. The hairs were not clearly separated and some were stuck together.
Ran Le looked at Ran Xuejuan and said seriously, "I don't understand."
Ran Xuejuan chuckled, "You will learn the truth slowly. You are only three years old now, so we will take it slow. But you can no longer ask for food from strangers. You are too young, and others are worried that you cannot eat some things. They dare not give it to you, but they are being filmed, and they don't want to be called stingy, so they have to give it to you. But if they give it to you, they will worry about whether you will get into trouble after eating it, and whether they will be held responsible. Then your behavior will cause trouble for them."
"But the girl today is very nice. She likes you very much, so you must not cause her any trouble."
Ran Le understood what was said. Apart from the logic, what Ran Xuexue meant was that if he ate the roast duck, it would cause trouble for the young lady, which meant that he could not eat the roast duck.
It’s just that the roast duck smelled so good that he secretly glanced at the roast duck in Ran Xuexue’s hand.
"I'm not useless, I'm responsible."
Ran Xuejuan looked at Ran Le. No matter how much she said, she still couldn't make the little guy give up. He had already seen the green peppers in the roast duck, and he didn't know where it was cooked. There were green peppers, spicy chili powder, and garlic in it. Ran Le definitely couldn't eat it.
Seeing that Ran Xuexue was unmoved, Ran Le waved to the photographer to come closer to him.
Ran Le said to the camera: "I am Lele, the lady who bought me roast duck today is very nice, you can't scold her, I really want to eat this roast duck, the lady is good, Lele is also good."
Photographer: “?”
What is this for?
After Ran Le finished speaking, he looked at Ran Xuexue eagerly and said, "Has Wo Kuoyi eaten yet?"
Ran Xuejuan was speechless. How could the little guy be so cunning when it comes to eating?
Ran Le was anxious: "It won't taste good if it gets cold."
Ran Xuejuan: "Wait for Zhufeng to come back."
Ran Le grabbed Ran Xue's tired hand and whispered: "Why? There are so many nests that we can't finish them all, just leave them to Shi Zhufeng."
Ran Xuejuan showed no expression: "Oh, because you can take responsibility, but I can't."
Ran Le would get a stomachache if he eats this amount of chili.
Ran Le: “?”
duck?
Ran Le was stunned and held Ran Xuejuan foolishly.
Ran Xuejuan pretended to be angry: "He clearly knew that he would have a stomachache after eating it, but he still ate it. A three-year-old child keeps saying that he is an adult, but he is so irresponsible. Doesn't he know that I will be worried if he has a stomachache?"
Ran Le understood, he said: "Oh, oh."
You may not necessarily have a stomachache, and whether you feel pain or not is something that has not happened yet, but whether you eat or not can happen.
What if he didn't have a stomachache?
But Ran Xuexue said he would be worried. He remembered that Ran Xuexue cried secretly when he was sick before. He felt so conflicted and didn't want to make Ran Xuexue worry, but the roast duck was really delicious.
If, if he doesn’t feel any pain, we’ll have to eat it to know whether he feels any pain or not.
He whispered, "I'll just try it, but I won't eat too much."
Shi Zhufeng came back with the milk and saw Ran Xuejuan and Ran Le squatting. He asked, "What are you talking about?"
He went to several stores before he found the right milk.
Ran Le looked at Shi Zhufeng and came up with an idea. He said, "Hand."
Shi Zhufeng squatted down and handed his hand over: "Hmm?"
Ran Le took Ran Xuejuan's hand and put it in Shi Zhufeng's hand. Ran Xuejuan wanted to pull it back but was stopped by Ran Le.
Ran Le: "Don't move, it's fine this way. If the baby is worried about me, I can comfort you sometimes."
After he finished speaking, he stared at the bag in Ran Xuexue's hand and laughed: "Now let's eat roast duck."
Shi Zhufeng pulled Ran Xuejuan's hand and smiled. It seemed that the other party was trying to reason with the little guy but failed.
In this regard, Ran Le is very persistent.
Ran Xuejuan: "Let go."
Shi Zhufeng let go.
He opened the roast duck and said to Ran Le, "Let me make it clear that you can only eat one piece, otherwise you won't be able to eat your lunch, and if you eat too much, you will definitely have a stomachache."
Ran Le was drooling, he nodded: "Okay, okay."
Shi Zhufeng took out disposable chopsticks, picked up a piece and gave it to Ran Xuejuan.
Ran Le: “Duck?”
But seeing that it was Ran Xuejuan, he agreed and he could eat the third piece.
Ran Xuejuan: "I don't want to eat."
Shi Zhufeng: "Try it for him to see how spicy it is. I don't know."
Upon hearing this, Ran Xuejuan looked down and saw that there was only this pair of chopsticks in the entire box.
Ran Le urged: "Ran Xuexue, eat quickly."
Ran Xuejuan looked at the roast duck on the chopsticks, lowered her head and took one end of the piece.
It's very fragrant. The excess oil in the duck meat is fried dry. The first bite is crispy, but the meat inside is tender. The chili is plenty, a mixture of numbing and spicy flavors, and a fresh fragrance of green pepper.
He swallowed it and said calmly to Shi Zhufeng, "He can't eat it."
He thought it was spicy. Ran Le was only three years old and definitely couldn’t eat it.
Shi Zhufeng tilted his head and looked at Ran Le: "It's over."
Ran Le quickly shook his head: "Not finished yet."
Shi Zhufeng picked up another potato and passed it to Ran Xuejuan: "Try this. He can't eat meat, but can he eat potatoes?"
Ran Xuejuan took it, and when he put the things in his mouth he realized that they were all from the same bag. The spicy duck meat and potatoes must be spicy too. When he looked at Zhu Feng, he bumped into the other person's smiling eyes.
Chase the wind when you are bored to death.
Ran Le was so greedy that he was dying.
"Where's the nest?"
If Big Daddy takes one more bite, it will be his turn.
Shi Zhufeng picked out a boneless piece and fed it to Ran Le.
"Slow down, please."
Ran Le couldn't wait to open his mouth and bite it.
The first feeling when he took a bite was spicy, very spicy. He endured the spiciness and bit into the meat. The numbness spread and he tasted the flavor of duck meat. There was also minced garlic in it. The mixture of these things made the tip of his tongue numb.
It's so fragrant and delicious, but very spicy.
He wanted to stick out his tongue, but that made him look a bit like a dog and he was a cat, he couldn't do such dog-like movements.
Ran Le jumped twice on the spot, breathing in and out continuously.
My eyes feel a little dizzy.
The straw suddenly touched his lips and he subconsciously took a sip.
It's milk!
He held the milk and took several sips.
Shi Zhufeng calmed the little guy down and said, "Some things can only be learned after you have tried them yourself."
Ran Xuejuan glanced sideways: "My biological father?"
Shi Zhufeng laughed: "Take another bite. If you eat more, the little guy will eat less."
Ran Xue began wearily: "I don't want to eat."
Shi Zhufeng: "Just one bite."
Ran Xuejuan leaned back: "You are annoying."
Shi Zhufeng: "It's okay to be annoyed. There's one person in my family who doesn't like to eat and the other who only likes to eat. I have to be normal."
There was a smile in Ran Xuejuan's eyes. What was wrong with him and Lele? He thought Shi Zhufeng was the most abnormal.
Shi Zhufeng: "Take a bite, it smells really good."
Ran Xuejuan had no choice but to lower her head and eat the roast duck.
He asked, “Why don’t you eat?”
Ran Le finally put down the straw: "Fourth Master Feng can't eat spicy food."
Ran Xuejuan looked over and saw that the little guy's face was red.
And Shi Zhufeng can't eat spicy food? Then Shi Zhufeng also ate cold lotus root yesterday.
Ran Le held the milk and laughed: "But Sizhu Feng won't blush."
Ran Xuejuan looked over and said: "The small one is greedy, and the big one is just pretending."
Shi Zhufeng: “…”
Little Ran Le, could you please stop taking advantage of your grandpa for the fact that he bought you milk?
Ran Le didn't know what Shi Zhufeng was thinking. He didn't even look at Shi Zhufeng. He was staring at the potatoes. He hadn't eaten any potatoes yet. To be fair, he had to take a bite each.
"Big bang, potatoes."
Shi Zhufeng: "...Are you sure you still want to eat?"
Ran Le nodded. Although it was spicy, it was very fragrant. He would definitely be able to eat spicy food in the future, like Ran Xuexue.
Shi Zhufeng picked up the smallest piece of potato and handed it over: "The last piece."
Ran Le: "Okay, okay."
He also knew that he couldn't eat too much, otherwise he would have a stomachache.
When I bit into the potato, the spicy aroma spread again. The potatoes were fried perfectly, with a soft and glutinous texture inside and the outer skin having just the right hardness.
He finished his mouthful of potato with a breath, then started drinking the milk.
Seeing this, Shi Zhufeng put the roast duck away. There was a microwave in the kitchen, so he could take it back and ask them if they wanted to eat it.
"Okay, we can't eat anymore. We should go see how your brother Qi Yu is doing."
Mai Sui and Qi Bojian looked out of place in a place like the vegetable market. He saw them when he went to buy milk just now. Both of them were the kind of people who were unwilling to solicit customers.
Qi Yu did attract customers, but it was obvious that she was well dressed and there were a bunch of photographers behind her, so few people came over.
Ran Le: "Okay."
This bottle of milk is too small and not enough for him to drink. He sees a big bottle in his father's bag and wonders why he doesn't give him that one.
Shi Zhufeng touched Ran Le's rabbit ears.
"You can't drink this bottle. If you drink it, you won't be able to eat."
Ran Le grabbed Shi Zhufeng and Ran Xuejuan: "Okay."
Actually, it's still a little spicy, it should be fine if he cools it down.
Ran Xuejuan chuckled. That bottle of milk might have been prepared by someone for her. If the little guy hadn't discovered it, that person would have drunk the milk too.
