The owner was quick; in no time, he brought over two bowls of noodles, each bowl containing the equivalent of two bowls in later times.
The two children immediately started drooling over the steaming pork noodles, but their good upbringing prevented them from overstepping their bounds.
"Miss, it seems you really enjoy my family's noodles."
Upon hearing this, Su Jingjing exclaimed in surprise, "Boss, you still remember me?"
The boss smiled mysteriously and said, "My old man's memory is excellent."
The main reason was that the other party's weight of over 100 kilograms was too conspicuous, so he paid more attention to it.
“You were sitting in this spot last week and even praised my noodles.”
Glancing at the children beside her, she was speechless. "Are these your two children? They're so handsome."
It seems the child inherited his genes from his father.
Su Jingjing wasn't stupid; she immediately understood the boss's implied meaning: her size was simply too eye-catching.
She's determined to lose weight and dazzle everyone.
"You guys eat first, I still have work to do."
The boss then realized he had spoken too much and might have even lost a repeat customer.
Li Cheng'an knew his mother was a regular here, so he just pursed his lips and didn't say anything.
But when a bowl of fragrant lean meat soup noodles was placed in front of him, Li Cheng'an lost his composure.
What does Mom mean by this?
Wasn't it supposed to be that he and his sister share a bowl?
Su Jingjing asked the owner to bring an extra set of chopsticks and bowls from the beginning, as she planned to share the food with Yuanyuan. However, she also made sure to take care of Yuanyuan while she ate the noodles, as the little one wasn't very good with chopsticks yet, and the soup noodles were too hot.
Suddenly realizing that An'an hadn't touched his chopsticks, she turned slightly to him and smiled, "Silly boy, hurry up and eat! What are you standing there for?"
"Look how much your little sister is enjoying her food."
The little guy, his mouth glistening with oil, said, "Mmm, brother, the noodles are delicious, but Mom's cooking is still the best."
She whispered the last sentence in their ears, not wanting the boss to hear.
Su Jingjing smiled brightly, "You're so sweet-talking, Mom will try it sometime."
Li Cheng'an could obviously see that his younger sister was eating happily, and then he moved his lips and asked, "Should I eat a bowl by myself?"
"Yes, my sister and I share the food. Anyway, I'm on a diet and need to control my food intake."
An'an has a big appetite, and a bowl of noodles is just right for him.
With his mother's encouraging gaze, Li Cheng'an finally began to eat.
Mmm, this is delicious!
However, it would taste even better if Mom cooked it.
He suddenly realized that his strong inner strength was about to crumble.
Secretly gazing at his mother's tender face, Li Cheng'an noticed that she seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and he now felt very averse to people saying that she was fat.
The family of three happily finished two bowls of noodles, and even let out a satisfied burp, instantly restoring their energy.
The innocent little one showed his mother his big belly, saying, "Mommy, my round belly is so big."
Su Jingjing patted it gently, "Did Yuanyuan enjoy her meal?"
The little one grinned, revealing a few grains of rice, "Yuanyuan is so full. I wish Daddy was here too."
This is so delicious, Dad has never eaten it before.
My little darling, your dad has eaten everything since he was a child, so there's no need to worry about him.
Su Jingjing tried her best to treat everyone equally, and smiled at An'an, a smile playing on her lips, "An'an, are you full?"
For the first time, Li Cheng'an didn't argue and obediently replied, "I'm full too."
Su Jingjing suggested, "How about we go to the meat stall now and have dumplings for dinner tonight?"
She used to love dumplings the most, and she would always order a bowl of dumplings whenever she went out for breakfast.
The little one was definitely the most enthusiastic, saying, "Okay, okay, Mommy, Yuanyuan wants to eat."
She'd only ever eaten it at her grandma's house, and it was delicious.
Su Jingjing hadn't expected the little guy to be such a foodie. If she continued to feed him, he would definitely grow into a chubby, adorable little guy. She looked forward to that day.
However, we still need to ask An'an's opinion.
Li Cheng'an had no objection, of course. He also liked dumplings. His grandmother had brought a box of steamed dumplings to school just two days ago, and he and his sister enjoyed them very much.
However, he didn't dare tell his mother about this yet, as the scenes of their past arguments were too vivid in his mind.
He dares not gamble!
Without hesitation, Su Jingjing took her two children straight to the meat stall, the same stall as last time.
The owner recognized her at a glance and greeted her with a smile from afar, "Miss, you've arrived. The meat is pretty good today, would you like some?"
"Oh, right, we also have some pig offal today. If you want it, I'll just give it to you."
This customer is a big spender; he always buys meat in bulk, starting from a pound. I need to cultivate a good relationship with him.
Su Jingjing really didn't expect her boss to have such a good memory. But it's always good to have someone you know. And so, the boss gave away pig offal for free again.
She happened to be craving it too, so she readily asked the owner to cut a pound of lean meat.
This was the first time Li Cheng'an had experienced the vibrant atmosphere of everyday life. The shouts and calls from vendors filled the air, proving that with enough money, you could buy anything.
When his mother handed him the pig offal, a stench assaulted his nostrils, and he immediately covered his nose and carried the bag away.
"It stinks! Why do you want me to hold it?"
He strongly suspected that his mother was retaliating against him, but he had no evidence.
"Smelly?"
Didn't you eat happily that day?
Su Jingjing smiled faintly. This brat is actually complaining. He'll have to face me later.
Li Cheng'an never expected that something that tasted so delicious would smell so bad. But then he thought about it, otherwise why would the owner have given it to him for no reason?
The mother had to put in a lot of effort to get rid of the smell.
He immediately fell silent and obediently carried it.
Seeing that the brat had quieted down, Su Jingjing continued her shopping spree.
I bought two more pounds of eggs this time. The eggs I bought a couple of days ago were not only steamed but also fried, so there are only four left.
On the way, they came across a vendor selling mung bean cakes. Her round eyes never left the vendor. Su Jingjing bought a pound of mung bean cakes and some rice and flour, and that was it.
"Okay, that's all for today."
No matter how many there are, you can't carry them all.
Looking at his body, which was completely covered in loose fabric, Li Cheng'an's lips twitched. Was this what he called a little bit?
He finally realized his mother's purchasing power and couldn't help but worry whether his father's allowance would be enough for her.
On her way to the train station with her child, Su Jingjing passed by the Shuqi Newspaper Office without stopping for a second, and walked straight ahead without looking back.
Actually, she had translated two articles in the past two days and was thinking of bringing them over today to exchange for a few dollars, but when she thought of her two children beside her, she changed her mind.
She doesn't want anyone to know she works at the newspaper right now, especially An'an, who isn't on her side and might tell Li Hanting about it.
Having served in the military for so many years, he could immediately detect even the slightest disturbance.
