Chapter 66 Convincing Mommy to Make Daddy's Favorite Dish
Kong Chi sighed softly beside him: "Of course, it's all thanks to Mommy's excellent genes."
Murong Chen sighed, "What are we going to do now? Daddy doesn't believe Mommy is Chanyi, and he won't beg Mommy to reconcile with him. Why is it so difficult to get Daddy and Mommy to make up..."
Kong Ran snorted: "If you ask me, don't waste your time. Mommy is such a beautiful fairy, there are men who want to pursue her all the way overseas. Why make Daddy, a mere mortal, pursue her?"
Murong Chen coughed lightly: "Ran-jie, don't say that. It's precisely because Daddy is just an ordinary mortal that we must let him marry Mommy, this fairy. Don't forget, since ancient times, the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, and Dong Yong and the Seventh Fairy, are love stories that have been passed down for thousands of years."
"If the three of us could bring this couple together, we'd be incredibly proud!"
“Little Chenchen, you’ve been reading a lot of extracurricular books, haven’t you?” Kong Ran rested her chin on her hand: “Then what do you suggest we do? My brain cells are killing me. If you ask me, we should use this time to think about what kind of big meal Mommy should make for dinner tonight.”
"Make a big meal..." Murong Chen's little head lit up: "That's right, how come I didn't think of that?"
"What are you thinking about, Xiao Chen?" Kong Chi sat up straight and looked at him.
"There's a saying that goes, 'The way to a man's heart is through his stomach.'" Murong Chen tilted his head back, his big eyes sparkling with wisdom.
"Oh, I think I understand now." Kong Chi nodded.
Kong Ran was bewildered: "What do you mean, 'understand'? Stop playing riddles, I don't understand any of it!"
Murong Chen chuckled: "Ran-jie, Mommy cooks so well. If she makes Daddy's favorite dishes every day, do you think Daddy will ever be able to live without Mommy?"
Kong Ran blinked: "No way, my stingy mortal daddy and fairy mommy signed an agreement that they won't eat together."
"Ran-jie, you underestimate Mommy. That's food made by fairies. Is there any mortal in this world who can resist it?"
Kong Ran thought about it and agreed, after all, Fairy Mommy's cooking was just too delicious!
Daddy isn't very smart, and I doubt he has much willpower either. He definitely won't be able to resist the temptation of delicious food!
Kong Chi nodded his little head beside him: "Xiao Chen's idea is feasible. We'll make a menu later, write down what Daddy likes to eat, and then ask Mommy to make it."
"So what does Daddy usually like to eat?" Kong Ran looked at Murong Chen: "Little Chenchen, you've lived with Daddy for so long, you must know. Tell us."
"Ah, what do you like to eat..." Murong Chen pondered at a 45-degree angle: "Braised duck, braised pork, spicy chicken, and braised pork trotters with soybeans would also be good, and sweet and sour pork ribs would be the perfect accompaniment to rice..."
As he spoke, he couldn't help but swallow hard.
Kong Chi: "...Xiao Chen, are you sure these are Daddy's favorite foods and not yours?"
Isn't it too greasy to eat so much meat and fish for dinner?
Murong Chen exclaimed "Ah!" as if waking from a dream, then touched his nose sheepishly and said, "Um, let me try a few more... vegetable porridge, okra salad, blanched bok choy..."
Kong Ran: "..."
Isn't the difference before and after too big?
"Daddy, you're eating such a light meal tonight?" Kong Ran couldn't help but ask.
This is simply going from one extreme to another!
“Sigh, Ran-jie, you’re still young, you don’t understand,” Murong Chen sighed. “Dad is getting old, after all, he definitely needs to start paying attention to his health. He can’t eat too much oily food at night. When we get old, we’ll be just like him, only able to eat these soupy and watery things every day…”
Kong Ran: "Tch, nonsense. Don't forget, we were born of fairies. How could we be like Daddy, a mere mortal?"
Murong Chen: "...Praising Mommy as a fairy is just a way of complimenting her, you actually took it seriously."
He turned to look at Kong Chi, thinking that the mature Kong Chi must agree with him.
Unexpectedly, Kong Chi followed Kong Hou, nodding and saying, "That's right!"
Murong Chen: "..."
After the three finalized the menu, Murong Chen volunteered to go find his mother.
Kong Wange was exhausted after installing the surveillance cameras. She had just lay down on the bed to rest when she heard a knock on the door.
She got out of bed and opened the door.
"Mommy!" Murong Chen smiled like a sunflower.
Kong Wange looked down and saw the little boy standing at her door, holding a piece of paper in his hand.
She glanced at his little head and smiled, "Chenbao, is something wrong?"
Murong Chen's eyes widened: "Mommy, you're so amazing! How did you know I wasn't Brother Chi!"
Kong Wange patted his head: "Because Mommy has done her homework recently. Among the three of you siblings, you only have one cowlick, Chi Bao has two cowlicks, and Ran Bao has three cowlicks. You can't see this little feature unless you look closely. Mommy also observed for a long time before I found it."
"No wonder the three of us have different heads! I remember there's a rhyme about this, something like..."
"Oh right, one spin is a stagger, two spins are straight, three spins are for fighting like there's no tomorrow..."
Murong Chen realized his mistake after speaking, and frowned slightly: "Pah, pah, pah, what a ridiculous rhyme! It's utter nonsense and it's ruining my reputation. It should be: one whorl for handsome, two whorls for rich, three whorls for beautiful, and it'll be the most beautiful thing in Jiangcheng!"
"What is all this about?" Kong Wange quickly coughed lightly to interrupt, "This is not important. Chenbao, didn't you want to talk to Mommy about something?"
"Oh, right," Murong Chen scratched the back of his head and chuckled, "Mommy, are you going to make dinner later? Can we order some food?"
"Of course, just tell Mommy what you want to eat."
“Then I’ll say it!” Murong Chen stood up straight, then cleared his throat and began to list the dishes: “We want blanched bok choy, okra salad, tofu with scallions, and vegetable porridge.”
Kong Wange: "...Chenbao, are you sure you want to eat such a bland meal? You are still young and growing. You can have some meat in your diet. Only old men eat like this at night."
Although Ranbao and Chibao usually like to eat vegetarian food, they don't usually eat such shabby food.
Murong Chen nodded guiltily, "Oh, Mommy, it's okay to eat something light once in a while. Just do as we say!"
Kong Wange thought for a moment and said, "These dishes can be made, but Mommy will make some slight modifications, is that okay?"
"Hmm..." Murong Chen thought about it and felt there was no problem, so he nodded and said, "No problem, as long as it tastes good."
Kong Wange smiled and tapped his little forehead: "Okay, then Mommy will get ready. You guys play for a while, and I'll call you when it's time to eat."
"Okay, love you, Mommy."
“Mommy loves you too. By the way, baby,” Kong Wange asked, remembering something, “bring your current clothes so Mommy can see them.”
"Hmm? What do you need me to do, Mommy?"
“I’m going to buy some matching items for your brother, just in case your dad notices if you’re dressed differently.”
