Chapter 325 Finally, I got to eat food fed by my daughter.
"Yes!" Zhao Ziyun responded and stepped forward respectfully and obediently.
Tang Bugui looked at Zhao Ziyun, noticing the striking resemblance between his face and Zhao Ziqian's, and gave a soft snort.
"Your half-brother is much more capable than you!"
Zhao Ziyun pursed his lips and bowed slightly to Tang Bugui.
My elder brother was extremely fond of Lan Shuyu back then, and he used a lot of tricks to marry her!
Unfortunately, the Lan family looked down on him, and Lan Shuyu never had any feelings for him. She even sensed his scheming, so she never saw him again.
However, Zhao Ziqian felt that he and Lan Shuyu were already close friends because they were drawn to each other through literature and made friends through writing!
So, he 'accidentally' revealed to others that he and Lan Shuyu had a close relationship...
"A scoundrel..."
Tang Bugui snorted, looked at Zhao Yun, and said, "You weren't killed by him, were you?"
Zhao Ziyun didn't speak, but this silence spoke volumes...
His original name was Zhao Ziyun, but he changed it to avoid being hunted down by those people.
Little Su Bao listened to the two talking, her big eyes blinking as if she didn't quite understand.
"Alright, let's eat first, then we can talk!" Qian's voice came from the kitchen.
Little Su Bao's attention was instantly drawn to the food, but then, as if remembering something, she quickly looked away.
But those big eyes still couldn't help but look into the kitchen.
"Daddy, the food my mom and sister-in-law make tastes so good!" The little dumpling hugged Tang Bugui and said excitedly in his ear.
However, the little dumpling seemed to have thought of something and secretly whispered in her father's ear, "But please don't let my second sister-in-law cook, it will make her tummy hurt..."
The little dumpling's sneaky little appearance is extremely cute, especially when she lowers her voice even further when she talks about Wang Xiuer.
Knowing it was wrong to speak ill of her second sister-in-law, she quickly added, "But my second sister-in-law is a very good person, and she's very kind to me!"
"Okay, Father will remember!"
Seeing his daughter's expression, Tang Bugui didn't bother to say anything to Zhao Ziyun.
It seems that the daughter is doing really well in the Tang family; everyone must treat her very well!
Tang Bugui secretly remembered all of this, and was extremely grateful.
Zhao Yun, who was standing to the side, kept looking at the little dumpling, and his eyes were full of smiles as he saw her guilty look.
It turns out that the mature and composed little girl in my dream also has such a lively side!
Zhao Yun raised his eyebrows; although he was a young man, he looked like a little old man.
Tang Bugui raised an eyebrow, his gaze falling on Zhao Yun's face.
The way this guy looks at his daughter... there's something... off about it.
My daughter is not even five years old!
"Hmph!" Tang Bugui snorted lightly, holding the little dumpling and blocking Zhao Yun's view.
That brat is very cunning; we need to be careful!
Zhao Yun was taken aback, and his gaze instantly returned, making him look like a gentle and refined young master once again.
Tang Bugui glanced at the kid and raised his eyebrows slightly.
At that moment, he felt the little bundle of flesh in his arms lean forward slightly, and he followed her gaze.
Immediately afterwards, she and her eldest son's wife brought out the food.
"Mom, sister-in-law!" Little Su Bao looked at the two of them excitedly, her little ears turning red.
"Is Little Su Bao hungry?" Madam Qian handed Little Su Bao a small bowl of pork cracklings, her eyes full of doting affection.
She knew that Little Su Bao was strong and got hungry quickly; despite her small size, she ate quite a lot.
Little Su Bao held the bowl, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Qian Shi, and said in a soft, babyish voice, "Thank you, Mommy, Mommy will eat too!"
As she spoke, she picked up a piece of pork crackling and stuffed it into Qian's mouth.
After taking a bite, Mrs. Qian felt happy and said, "Su Bao, let your father try our family's pork cracklings too!"
Xiao Su Bao immediately picked up another piece of pork crackling and turned to look at Tang Bugui with some nervousness.
"Daddy...you want to eat pork cracklings...my mom's pork cracklings are so delicious!" Little Su Bao whispered, her eyes full of anticipation.
I hope Father won't dislike Su Bao like Uncle Lan and the others!
Once, she was eating in the house. She was still young at the time, and her mother was ill.
Third and fourth uncles suddenly came to eat with them. Little Su Bao was very happy to see so many delicious foods on the table.
She used serving chopsticks to add a piece of meat to her mother's plate, and also put meat on her third and fourth uncles' plates.
Even though more than two years have passed, the little dumpling still clearly remembers the disdainful looks from her third uncle and his family.
"I...I'm sorry...Su Bao..." Little Su Bao saw that Tang Bugui didn't open his mouth, so he quickly tried to withdraw his hand.
It would be a lie to say she wasn't sad, but she still tilted her head back and tried to force a smile.
“My hands are dirty, Daddy…” Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly paused and looked down at her little hands.
The greasy pork cracklings on her fair and tender little hands were gone.
Tang Bugui's eyes were full of tenderness.
he!
I finally got to eat food fed by my daughter!
The pork cracklings had a slightly salty taste, and the aroma of the oil made him feel as if all his fatigue and discomfort had disappeared.
"This is the most delicious thing Daddy has ever eaten!" Tang Bugui's nose tingled with emotion. If Shuyu were still here, the three of them would be together!
The dim light in Xiao Su Bao's eyes instantly brightened.
Father didn't despise me!
Seeing this loving scene between father and son, Mrs. Qian was also happy for Xiao Su Bao.
She paused for a moment before placing the other items on the table to the side.
There weren't many ingredients; I made a big bowl of spicy red broth and another bowl of garlic broth.
What's left is the pork they braise every day: ears, liver, trotters, and everything else they have.
In addition to these, Qian also made fish soup and baked flatbread, which could be soaked in the soup and eaten.
"Everyone, please don't be shy today. There's plenty of food in the kitchen, so please eat to your heart's content!" Madam Qian said to Tang Bugui and the others.
Tang Bugui's eyes held a hint of a smile: "Then thank you, sister-in-law!"
"Uncle, I'll go help Aunt Qian first!" With that, Zhao Yun got up and left.
Tang Bugui was taken aback, but didn't say anything.
He had just turned around with Xiao Su Bao in his arms when he heard Zhao Ziyun's faint voice.
“He is indeed a…scoundrel…” After saying this, Zhao Ziyun walked towards Madam Qian.
"Auntie, let me help you with the work!" Zhao Ziyun rolled up his sleeves, showing no airs of a young master from a wealthy family, and turned to go to the kitchen with Madam Qian to work.
Tang Bugui watched his retreating figure, and heard Qian Shi's cheerful voice, tinged with laughter.
"You child, why are you always like this? I've already told you, no need. You're a guest, how can you make a guest do chores!" Although Madam Qian said this, she still handed the things to Zhao Yun.
Zhao Ziyun skillfully picked up the plate, a smile in his eyes.
Since he wanted to be with Xiao Su Bao, he definitely had to win over his mother-in-law and the others first.
It's important to know that Tang Bugui only spent some time with Xiao Subao, while his mother-in-law and the others stayed with Xiao Subao the whole time.
Their status in Su Bao's heart was not much lower than that of Tang Bugui.
"Auntie, I was so grateful to you and Xiaosubao when I was injured. I survived because of you. If it weren't for you, I would have died long ago. I owe you this. Doing some work is nothing!"
As Zhao Ziyun spoke, he quickly went back to work. Qian looked on helplessly, but there was a hint of a smile in her eyes.
This child, though cunning, is capable of handling things.
"Sigh, I just can't win against you young people!" Mrs. Qian muttered to herself before continuing her work.
Little Mo Bao, who was tending the fire nearby, looked up at Zhao Ziyun and frowned slightly.
However, he quickly looked away and continued working.
Zhao Ziyun glanced at Xiao Mobao out of the corner of his eye, raised his eyebrows, and thought, "These days, this kid doesn't really like to talk much."
This time, no matter what, I must first develop a relationship with Xiao Su Bao.
Zhao Yun clenched his fist slightly.
"Mo Bao, you are a guest, how can I let you do the work? Go and rest, let me do it!" Zhao Ziyun walked up to Yun Mo and said with a smile.
However, the smile didn't quite reach his eyes.
Xiao Mobao frowned, but ignored him and continued with her work.
After a long pause, he finally said, "No need!"
Zhao Yun didn't insist, he just smiled and continued with his work.
Tang Bugui stared blankly at the large table of red-colored pork and braised meat.
"How do you know how to make these things?"
He looked at Sun Cuihua, his eyes full of curiosity.
Sun Cuihua looked at this uncle who was probably even younger than her, and then looked at Xiao Su Bao beside her with a touch of pride.
"These are all snacks that our little Su Bao invented, and they taste pretty good!"
Tang Bugui subconsciously looked at the little dumpling in his arms, who showed a silly smile.
"Father..."
Little Su Bao was a little embarrassed, and her little ears turned slightly red.
But the little dumpling couldn't help but look forward to it, hoping that Tang Bugui would say something.
Tang Bugui suddenly picked up Xiao Su Bao and started spinning around in circles.
"Oh my, how amazing my little Su Bao is! She can make such delicious things. She truly is her father's and mother's daughter, so intelligent and quick-witted..."
Xiao Su Bao was a little scared at first, but when she heard Tang Bu Gui's voice, her tension disappeared instantly.
The little girl giggled, her eyes crinkling with joy, looking exceptionally happy.
Mrs. Qian came over carrying the last plate of stir-fried mushrooms.
"You're Su Bao's dad, try some of the food Su Bao made, it tastes really good!"
Hearing Xiao Su Bao's laughter, Qian felt somewhat conflicted.
Little Su Bao has been here for so long, and they have been carefully protecting the little dumpling.
This warmed the child's heart and helped her gradually accept everyone.
But Tang doesn't return...
Even though they'd only been together for two days, the little dumpling's dependence on her father was already enviable.
"Yes, thank you, sister-in-law!" Tang Bugui nodded, expressing his sincere gratitude.
Little Su Bao turned to look at Madam Qian and immediately reached out her arms, saying, "Mommy, hug me..."
The slight disappointment in Ms. Qian's heart vanished instantly, and she reached out to take the little dumpling in her arms.
Her eyes were full of tenderness: "What's wrong? You and your father have just reunited. You two should spend more time getting to know each other!"
Little Su Bao hugged Qian Shi and suddenly kissed her on the cheek.
"Su Bao loves Mommy so much!" She nestled in Qian Shi's arms, her small body soft and full of dependence.
Mrs. Qian paused for a moment, then reached out and patted her head.
"Good, Mother loves Su Bao very much too." Madam Qian smiled, and the bitterness in her heart instantly disappeared.
As long as the little one is happy, that's what matters most.
“Su Bao, there’s me too, and there’s your dear second sister-in-law!” Wang Xiuer peeked out from behind Qian Shi.
"Smack..." Little Su Bao hugged Wang Xiuer's face and gave her a big kiss.
"Su Bao also likes Sister-in-law, Second Sister-in-law, Big Brother, Second Brother, Third Brother, and Fourth Brother. She likes everyone in the village!" Little Su Bao said sweetly, her eyes full of joy.
"You silly girl, can't you like me a little more? It's a shame your second sister-in-law likes you the most!" Wang Xiuer secretly stuffed a piece of pork trotter into Xiao Su Bao's mouth.
"Mmm..." Little Su Bao didn't have time to speak, so she could only puff out her cheeks and start eating.
Just as Madam Qian was about to say a few words about her second son's wife, a cheerful voice rang in her ears.
"Junior sister, junior sister, your third senior brother is back again!" A slightly hoarse voice could be heard.
It's my third senior brother...
Ms. Qian turned her head to look at the doorway.
Under the sunlight, the third senior brother, with a bald head, dressed in the uniform of a yamen runner and a sword at his waist, strode in, his eyes full of smiles.
Compared to his days as a bandit, he now possessed a greater sense of righteousness.
Little Su Bao couldn't help but look over, also showing some curiosity about her mother's third senior brother.
While everyone else was filled with karmic obstacles, he was the only one with a faint trace of merit.
This person should be considered a good person!
Little Su Bao ate while watching him.
"Third Senior Brother, what brings you here!" Madam Qian was taken aback at first, but then a smile appeared on her face.
Qian Shi never expected to meet her third senior brother, but she was still in a pretty good mood.
"The adults sent me here to bring some rewards back to our village!" The third senior brother chuckled, a hint of excitement in his eyes.
There were many people standing behind him, carrying a lot of things.
He scratched his head, looked at Madam Qian, and carefully took out a silver plum blossom hairpin from his pocket.
"This was bought with the reward money given by the county magistrate. I handed over all the money I had before to the magistrate!" The third senior brother looked at Madam Qian cautiously, a little nervous and a little excited.
Little Su Bao blinked her eyes, and suddenly, she saw a red line!
The red thread ran from the third senior brother's body towards his mother.
However, in just a moment, Qian's red thread vanished.
They look like they've hidden themselves!
Little Su Bao's eyes widened in delight!
"Third senior brother, you've gone to so much trouble, but I'm a grandmother now, I don't need these things anymore..."
Madam Qian smiled and declined. She walked past her third senior brother and called out, "Everyone has worked hard. I don't have anything special to offer you today, just some simple food. I hope you won't be shy!"
The third senior brother was about to say something, but before he could get close, a ghost-like figure appeared.
