Chapter 791 Braised Lotus Root and Twice-Cooked Beef Fried Rice



Jian Shu ignored the two little ones over there and waved to Wu Xiufang, "Sister-in-law, come and sit down."

Since the summer vacation, Tiedan has developed a strong interest in this little sister who is becoming more and more cute and beautiful. He doesn't even have time to play with his friends. He runs home every day, thinking about teaching his sister to call him brother.

Unfortunately, little Gu Yiyi didn't cooperate at all, but this didn't dampen his confidence at all. Instead, he became more and more courageous and reported to school on time every day.

"This kid always talks about his sister's good and bad sides. Just after finishing his meal, he pulled me over here." Wu Xiufang chuckled and shook her head.

"Children just want to see something new. He is the youngest in the family and doesn't see many children on weekdays. If a little baby suddenly appears next to him, wouldn't it be fun?" Jianshu understood Tiedan's psychology very well.

Not to mention that children of this age are really cute, and strangers want to pinch their little faces when they see them.

"Speaking of which, this child really changes every day. He has grown a lot since the last time I came." Wu Xiufang is busy with work and may not come every time during her rest time. Sometimes the child falls asleep and she doesn't see him, so she is the one who feels the most about this.

I read Jianshu every day, but I don’t feel anything.

"Has she grown bigger? I haven't noticed, but I just feel that she is getting heavier and heavier. In a few months, I won't be able to hold her anymore." Jian Shu couldn't help rubbing his arms as he said this.

"She is now slowly learning to crawl. She is so excited about it that she won't want to be held in her arms in a while." As someone who has been through this, Wu Xiufang shared her experience with her.

Jian Shu couldn't help but sigh, "Then I'd rather hold her. She's already starting to act naughty now. When she really learns to crawl, my heart will be hanging in the air and I won't be able to let go."

"You have to pay attention now. I heard a while ago that a family in a nearby village didn't watch their child for a moment, and the child fell off the bed and got a big bump on the head. The child's mother cried so hard. Fortunately, the hospital said that nothing serious happened. Otherwise, it would be too late to regret." Wu Xiufang reminded seriously.

Jianshu's expression straightened up, "Thank you for the reminder, sister-in-law. I will pay attention to it next time." When she was not around, he would rather put the child on the floor and get it dirty than put him on the bed.

There are also a lot of miscellaneous things in the house that need to be put away to leave enough space for the children to avoid bumping into things.

"By the way, I heard that my sister-in-law became a leader? I haven't had time to congratulate her yet." Thinking of something, Jianshu congratulated with a smile.

"Hey, what do you mean by being a leader? I'm just a team leader, taking care of some trivial matters on weekdays." Wu Xiufang waved her hand and smiled modestly, but a hint of joy still appeared on her face.

Although her position wasn't high, and her salary hadn't increased much, the fact that she was able to move up meant that her work was recognized. For Wu Xiufang, who had previously been working in her own little corner of the family, nothing made her happier than the recognition from her superiors.

"Team leader is also making progress. Sister-in-law, you have only been working for a few years, and you have been able to stand out among so many people who entered with you. This shows your ability. You will definitely continue to improve in the future."

"Haha - I wish you good luck." Wu Xiufang laughed heartily.

When the little boy Gu Yiyi heard the noise, he tilted his head and kept reaching over here, as if he wanted to join in the fun.

Seeing that she was having difficulty turning over, Tiedan reached out to help her. However, instead of receiving any thanks from his sister, she frowned and muttered something to him.

Although I didn't understand, I could tell from her expression that she was unhappy.

Tiedan felt a little aggrieved for a moment.

Seeing this, Jian Shu quickly waved at him, "Tiedan, come and have some fruit. Don't bother with her. She's been very stubborn lately. She refuses to be helped with anything, and she gets angry otherwise. Leave her alone and ignore her."

"I'm accompanying my sister." Tiedan insisted.

Okay, Jianshu won’t force him, just let him be.

That night, the mother and daughter were having dinner.

Gu Mingjing is not at home, and Jianshu doesn't like to do anything complicated. He just cooks one dish and steams some rice at noon every day, and then heats up the leftovers in the evening and eats them directly.

Today's lunch was braised lotus root and twice-cooked beef. Tonight, Jianshu felt lazy and just fried the food together. It was fragrant and delicious, with both vegetables and rice, which was much more to her liking than the usual egg fried rice.

You don’t need chopsticks, just pick up a spoon and feed it into your mouth one spoonful at a time.

"Yi Yi, come here, look at mommy, open your mouth, and then eat it." Jianshu demonstrated to the little one on the side.

Little Gu Yiyi watched attentively and imitated her, "Awooo——" and fed it to her face.

She didn't get any food and didn't notice it. Instead, she clapped her little hands as if she had accomplished something great.

This is also imitating adults. In the past, every time she accomplished something, Jianshu would applaud and celebrate. Over time, she learned it herself. She would applaud whenever she thought of it and encourage herself every day.

The corners of Jianshu's mouth twitched, but she didn't show any impatience. She had been mentally prepared for this.

She wiped the rice grains off the child's face with a tissue and continued to demonstrate.

By the time Jianshu finished eating, there wasn't much left in Gu Yiyi's bowl. However, most of the food went to his face and body, leaving him with less than half.

Fortunately, Jianshu had anticipated this and specially increased the portion, otherwise the little one would have to get off the chair with an empty stomach after finishing the meal.

Jianshu picked up the dirty little cat that was reaching out to her and was about to give her a bath and change her clothes when she heard a knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Jian Shu walked out with the child in his arms, puzzled.

"It's me—"

Jianshu's mouth twitched slightly, and he opened the door, and it was as expected.

"This is the first time I've seen you like this. When someone asks you who you are, you don't tell them your name, but instead say 'it's me'. How would anyone know who you are?"

"Hey, don't you think you can recognize my voice?" Gu Mingjing smiled awkwardly. Then he turned to look at the child in her arms, "Hey, where did this little cat come from? Why is our little baby so dirty?"

After saying that, he reached out and wanted to hold the child.

Little Gu Yiyi looked at him with his big black and white eyes. Seeing this, he hid back, lay on his mother, and hugged her neck tightly.

Gu Mingjing looked hurt, "Oh no, the child really doesn't recognize me!"

Jian Shu looked him up and down, then raised his chin towards the kitchen. "The water's boiling now, so hurry up and wash and tidy yourself up. Who would recognize you with your unshaven face? It's a good thing the kids don't think you're a weird uncle."

Gu Mingjing touched his chin and asked, "Is it ugly?"

"It doesn't look good anyway." Jianshu doesn't like beards.

"Then I'll go clean up." After saying that, he ran back.

Jian Shu shouted again, "Pour some water for your daughter too. I want to give her a bath."

Gu Mingjing went to the bathroom to wash up, and Jianshu simply closed the door and gave the child a bath in the living room.

Take off the dirty clothes, soak it in water, and rinse it, and the dirty little cat will become a white and tender little cutie again.
