Chapter 750 Chen Yunxi's Foodie Confirmed
"So many flowers!"
Chen Yunxi wandered among the flowers.
Then, she poked her head out and winked at Xiao Han, "Uncle, your house is so big! So many flowers, I love them!"
"An'an, Mom said you can't run around like that!" Chen Yunqian chased after Chen Yunxi, panting heavily.
He didn't understand why he was older but not as strong as his sister.
"What kind of flowers do you like? I'll have the housekeeper deliver them to your home."
To everyone's surprise, Xiao Han answered Chen Yunxi's question in a gentle tone, with a hint of doting in his eyes.
Chen Yunqian was taken aback, then quickly waved his hand, "No need, Uncle Xiao Han, it's no trouble!"
Both my mother and my teacher have said that I should not accept favors from others.
Chen Yunxi, however, didn't stand on ceremony. She pushed Chen Yunqian aside and pointed towards the flower bushes: "That...that...and that...I like them all..."
As she spoke, she stared longingly at Xiao Han.
"Okay, send them all!" Xiao Han said gently.
"Yay! Thank you, Uncle Xiao!" Chen Yunxi clapped her hands and jumped around Xiao Han, she couldn't be happier.
These things came into the view of the two people behind them.
Doukou couldn't help but ask, "Madam, is it really alright for Miss to do this?"
She recalled how Xiao Han reprimanded the servants and couldn't help but feel a little scared.
"That's great. She's bold and smart, and she never lets herself be taken advantage of. Can you believe that she, a small girl, once swindled ten taels of silver from someone twice her age?"
Wan Qiqi stared at Chen Yunxi's back and smiled indulgently.
"Ten taels of silver?" Doukou exclaimed in surprise.
It's already quite remarkable that a child this age can count!
They asked for ten taels right off the bat. Where did they get the audacity to ask for such a large sum?
Seeing that Doukou didn't believe her, Wan Qiqi told her how Chen Yunxi had tricked Feng Gan.
Doukou was stunned.
Finally, she realized that her cute appearance was just a deceptive tactic; the little guy's true nature was cunning and ruthless.
Just as Doukou was thinking this, she saw Chen Yunxi turn around, grin at her, and look smug.
Doukou was puzzled, but Wan Qiqi understood what Chen Yunxi meant.
Because the flowers Chen Yunxi chose were all ones he liked.
This child is using someone else's flowers to present to Buddha!
"She's so precocious for her age!" she thought to herself.
In no time, they arrived at Old Master Xiao's courtyard.
There were many potted plants in the yard, and a fishpond next to it.
Grandpa Xiao was standing by the fishpond feeding the fish.
When the servants saw Xiao Han arrive, they tried to bow, but Xiao Han interrupted them and told them to leave.
He placed the food box on the stone table beside him and quietly looked at Old Master Xiao, who seemed to be in the prime of his life.
Unexpectedly, two small figures suddenly appeared beside the fishpond.
"So many fish, so beautiful!" Chen Yunxi exclaimed.
Grandpa Xiao was drawn by the children's voices. He turned his head and saw two adorable children, like mud dolls, peeking through the gaps in the railing at the fishpond.
One of the older men met his gaze, paused for a moment, and then immediately reached out to pull the little girl away.
As a result, the little girl completely ignored him, staring intently at the fishpond, and complained, "Brother, don't pull me!"
Helpless, Chen Yunqian could only straighten his clothes and bow respectfully to Grandpa Xiao, saying, "Greetings, Grandpa Xiao!"
Grandpa Xiao nodded.
The more he looked at the two children, the more familiar they seemed, as if he had seen them somewhere before.
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Xiao Han and Wan Qiqi standing not far away.
He immediately realized what was happening.
Aren't these Wan Qiqi's two children?
After several months, you've become even fairer and cleaner!
Chen Yunxi seemed to realize something as well, turned her head to look at Grandpa Xiao, and asked curiously, "Grandpa Xiao, these little fish are so beautiful, did you raise them all?"
"Yes, do you like it?" Old Master Xiao asked with a smile.
In the distance, Wan Qiqi suddenly realized something was wrong and wanted to step forward to stop Chen Yunxi, when she heard Chen Yunxi say:
"I love it! Such a beautiful fish! It would taste amazing if it were cooked!"
Wan Qiqi: "..."
Chen Yunqian: "..."
Xiao Han: "..."
Grandpa Xiao burst into laughter, "Child, these fish are for ornamental purposes, not for eating! If you want to eat fish, Grandpa will have the kitchen make some for you, okay?"
"You can't eat it!" Chen Yunxi said with a regretful expression and a hint of disappointment in her eyes.
She stared at it longingly for a few moments before finally looking away from the fishpond.
"Grandpa Xiao, my mother made a lot of delicious food. Would you like to try some?" She stared at Grandpa Xiao and blinked.
“Okay, I’ll try it!” Grandpa Xiao replied, and invited the two children to come over with him.
Chen Yunxi skipped and hopped ahead, bumping into Wan Qiqi's arms, and said with a smile, "Mom, I've called Grandpa Xiao over!"
Wan Qiqi gently pinched Chen Yunxi's nose, somewhat helplessly, but her tone was gentle as she said, "Don't be naughty! Are we that poor?"
“But when I see something nice, I want to give it to my mother and father!” Chen Yunxi said, pointing to the fishpond. “We don’t have a fishpond at home!”
Wan Qiqi: "..."
"With the size of our house, can we even dig a fishpond? Even if we did, I'm afraid you'd go crazy and jump in!" she thought to herself.
On the surface, she sighed helplessly, bowed to Old Master Xiao, and said, "Qiqi greets Old Master. I am just a child and do not know the rules. Please forgive me!"
Grandpa Xiao waved his hand and sat down at the stone table.
Doukou immediately helped to arrange the food from the food box and handed chopsticks to Grandpa Xiao.
Grandpa Xiao looked up and nodded. "Now that my status is different, I do need a maid to serve me, and a few skilled people by my side."
