Seeing that everyone else had started eating, but the waiters and Wu San Niang and the others were still standing there awkwardly, Min Yueqing deliberately raised her voice and said to Amei and the other woman, "Take it over to them, and they can continue eating later."
Upon hearing this, Wu San Niang and the others could no longer stand still. Seeing that A Mei and A Zhu were really about to put down their plates, they immediately stepped forward and obediently each took a plate back.
When Shi Tou saw the uniquely shaped pastry, his eyes were immediately glued to it. When he saw that Min Yueqing had cut it open, he was even more drooling because of the many layers inside and the beautiful cut surface.
With one spoonful, Shi Tou scooped out a third of the cake in his hand, and couldn't wait to stuff it into his mouth, which was immediately filled with the sweet taste.
The white cream melted in his mouth, and with a couple of bites, he could still taste the crunchy peach. Stone devoured most of it in no time. When only a little was left, he started to feel reluctant to eat it, and for the first time ever, he began to savor it slowly.
Pei Ji had been looking forward to it for most of the afternoon and had even participated in making the cake himself. Now, when he tasted it, he felt completely satisfied.
With one bite, the aroma of eggs, milk, and fruit instantly filled his mouth, and the taste was soft and sweet. He looked up at Min Yueqing and said, "Mother, this cake is so delicious. Shouldn't we save some for Father?"
Pei Ji was a filial son, and every time he ate something delicious, he would immediately think of Min Yueqing and Pei Han. But when he looked up, he found that the plate was completely empty.
Upon hearing this, Amei and her companion immediately thought of the plate of pan-fried potatoes. Looking at the cake in their hands, which only had a corner left, they couldn't help but look at each other in bewilderment.
Amei: What do we do? How could we forget about our son-in-law again? Ah!!!
Azhu: That's right, if the young master hadn't mentioned it, I would have finished eating by now, boohoo...
Min Yueqing calmly said to the little one, "This is a surprise I prepared for your father on his birthday. Today is just a trial run, so he can't know yet. You all be careful not to let it slip after we leave."
As she spoke her last words, Min Yueqing glanced around the room. Everyone who met her gaze immediately nodded repeatedly, like chickens pecking at rice.
Amei and Azhu exchanged a glance, then both breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to themselves, "That's right, how could Miss forget her son-in-law? There must have been a reason for what happened last time!"
Upon hearing this, Pei Ji was pleasantly surprised and immediately covered his mouth with his hand to indicate that he would not tell anyone before continuing to eat the cake.
Min Yueqing was probably the only one in the house who wasn't entirely satisfied with the finished product, because she had tasted a better version and found it hard to accept this low-end version.
The cream and fruit were fine, both fresh and delicious. It was just that the cake base was a bit rough, not fluffy and dense enough, and had a noticeable grainy texture.
Min Yueqing guessed that there was a little too much flour, and that she would need to adjust it tomorrow.
Seeing that Min Yueqing was completely ignoring it and was even eating by herself, Xiao Wei became even more unhappy and quickly nudged itself against Min Yueqing's legs twice, trying to show its presence.
Min Yueqing initially pretended to be nonchalant, but in reality, she had been secretly glancing at it out of the corner of her eye. Now that she saw that it could no longer hold back, Min Yueqing decided to stop while she was ahead.
She squatted down, tapped Xiao Wei's nose with her finger, and said in a serious tone, "Not throwing tantrums anymore? Your body hasn't grown much, but your temper is getting worse."
Seeing Min Yueqing's serious expression, Xiao Wei immediately stopped acting up and gently rubbed his big head against her hand twice as if admitting his mistake, his big, watery eyes never leaving her.
Min Yueqing couldn't resist its obedient, innocent, and slightly bewildered gaze. Moreover, its black-gold eyes were becoming increasingly clear and bright, and the domineering aura of the master of the mountains and forests was beginning to emerge in them, making it look extremely beautiful.
Min Yueqing is naturally protective of her own children, and perhaps due to the filter of her own child, she thinks day by day that Xiao Wei is simply the most beautiful little tiger in the world.
Are the other tiger cubs' fur this glossy and smooth? And Little Wei's fur is mainly black, which looks so majestic, not to mention the soft white fur interspersed among it, how adorable!
Min Yueqing found even the tuft of white hair on Xiao Wei's black forehead quite unique and would often touch it affectionately.
Therefore, she was basically never angry with the little tiger. Even if she felt it was being a little naughty, she would at most pretend to be serious and scare it.
Little Wei is very clever. As soon as it notices that Min Yueqing's expression becomes serious, it immediately realizes that it has done something wrong, and then obediently admits its mistake, begging and rolling around to get away with it.
As soon as Min Yueqing saw that it had admitted its mistake, she immediately forgave it and even fed it a bite of the cake in her hand.
Little Wei devoured the cake in a whirlwind, chewing and swallowing it whole. For it, the cake was far too small, and it was gone before it could even taste it.
Seeing that it still seemed a little unsatisfied, Min Yueqing pointed to the food bowl next to it. This time, Xiao Wei understood very quickly and obediently wagged its long tail and went over to eat without saying a word.
Pei Ji ate cake while watching the show, and couldn't help but chuckle when he saw Xiao Wei's cowardly appearance.
Shi Tou had already finished the small cake and had been watching the show for a while. When Pei Ji smiled, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Not to mention those who were familiar with Xiao Wei, they couldn't help but laugh. In fact, Wu San Niang and her daughter, along with their friends, were also secretly covering their mouths, afraid that they might burst out laughing on the spot.
After Xiao Wei came in, they would occasionally steal glances at them. They had never seen a real tiger before, and now that they had the chance to see one so close up, how could they not be curious?
When they saw that a little tiger could skillfully act cute and charming, weren't they all amazed?
Moreover, after overcoming their fear, they almost immediately noticed the little tiger's beautiful and majestic appearance, and couldn't help but want to take a second look.
Under so many eyes, both overt and covert, Little Wei remained completely unmoved. It focused intently on its meal, not even glancing at the food out of the corner of its eye.
As long as these people don't attack it or suddenly approach it, it ignores everyone.
Seeing that it was getting dark outside, Min Yueqing guessed that Pei Han was about to finish his shift, so she called Pei Ji and the others to go outside.
Xiao Wei noticed the movement, raised its head and licked its lips. Without hesitation, it gave up the remaining milk in the bowl, jumped up, and followed Min Yueqing.
The men were once again amazed, marveling at how loyal the little tiger was to their wife.
Wu Yanyan ate her cake in small, precious bites, and now she had her last bite. She carefully scraped the cream off the plate and then went over to help the staff clear the dishes off the table.
