He lay down until seven o’clock and then returned to the kitchen.
The aroma of the bone had been cooked, and the entire room was filled with it.
He opened the lid and took a look. The soup had already turned milky white.
He closed the lid with satisfaction and took out the frying pan.
At 7:20, he knocked on the door one by one.
As soon as he got out of bed, Zhang Kun smelled the rich aroma of the bone soup.
He and Li Xu wore their clothes expectantly and walked out of the bedroom.
When they arrived at the dining table, the two of them were dumbfounded.
There was only a bowl of soup on the table; the rest were noodles.
Fortunately, Li Yong’s conscience was still there. He knew to make a braised pork belly and fried a few eggs instead of clear soup noodles.
Li Yong protected the bowl of soup well, and when Ji Yuanyuan came out, he quickly greeted her, “Yuanyuan, come here quickly. Second Uncle has made you some soup!”
Ji Yuanyuan rubbed his eyes as she walked to the dining table. Seeing the soup on the table, she felt that something was wrong.
“Go brush your teeth first. You can wash your face after breakfast,” Li Xu urged them.
The three children went into the bathroom and sat at the dining table after brushing their teeth.
Li Yong pushed the bowl of soup in front of Ji Yuanyuan.
Ji Zi’ang waited for a long time, but his bowl did not appear. Feeling wronged, he asked, “Second Uncle, what about Big Brother and me?”
When Li Yong faced Ji Yuanyuan, he still had a gentle expression. However, when she looked at Ji Zi’ang, his expression turned serious. “You and Zixuan are already big kids. You don’t need to drink soup.”
He then looked at Ji Yuanyuan and urged her, “Yuanyuan, drink it quickly. After you’re done, Second Uncle will get you another bowl!”
Ji Yuanyuan lowered her head and looked at the thick soup in the bowl, then said very calmly, “Second Uncle!”
“What?” Li Yong quickly replied.
“With our relationship, you don’t have to be so deliberate. I’ll help you.” Ji Yuanyuan raised her head and looked at Li Yong as she said this in a serious manner.
Ji Yuanyuan could easily understand his Second Uncle’s thoughts.
It was a Saturday, and she would usually go to Grandfather Qin’s place on Saturdays and Sundays.
Auntie Xiaomin, on the other hand, lived next door to Grandfather Qin’s house.
Her Second Uncle had come over early in the morning to court her, so he must have wanted her help.
Upon hearing Ji Yuanyuan’s words, Li Yong’s expression was a little embarrassed.
He patted Ji Yuanyuan’s head. “My niece is so smart. Drink up quickly. After you’re done, Second Uncle will send you to Grandpa Qin.”
Li Xu and Zhang Kun had finished brushing their teeth and came over. They only came back to their senses after hearing Li Yong’s words.
“So you were waiting for our Yuanyuan here?” Li Xu said unhappily, “You’re just going to deduct it like this. Don’t you know how to give Zixuan and Zi’ang some?”
Li Yong pushed the noodles in front of the two children. “The clay pot is only this big. There’s not much left. I’ll buy you guys something nice to eat later. You can eat whatever you want!”
Ji Zi’ang was instantly happy when he heard that there was good food. “Second Uncle, you have to keep your word!”
He took the noodles and ate them happily.
Li Xu sat down and looked at her silly son. She shook her head helplessly.
He is really too easy to bribe!
After the meal, Li Xu and Zhang Kun went to the shop, leaving only the three children and Li Yong at home.
Li Yong urged them to pack up while he poured the soup from the clay pot into a thermos.
It was not even eight o’clock when everything was ready.
Li Yong brought them downstairs. He used Li Xu’s little three-wheeled motorcycle to carry the three children to the Qin family’s villa.
After entering the villa, Li Yong didn’t dare to approach. He was afraid that Niu Allan and Qin Zhiye would be angry if they saw him.
He stopped in the distance.
He took a thermal container and placed it in Ji Yuanyuan’s hands, instructing, “Go to Auntie Xiaomin’s house later and say that you’re bringing soup to her. Don’t ever say that I prepared this soup. Just say that it was prepared by your mother, understand?”
Ji Yuanyuan nodded seriously and asked him, “Then, Second Uncle, are you leaving now?”
“Second Uncle isn’t leaving. I will stay here for a while!”
Hearing this, Ji Yuanyuan quietly moved closer and whispered, “Then find an angle where Auntie Xiaomin can see you. I’ll ask her to go to the window later, and you’ll be able to see her!”
Hearing Ji Yuanyuan’s words, Li Yong’s eyes lit up, and he couldn’t help but step forward and kiss Ji Yuanyuan on the face. “You’re really my niece, and you’re the best. In the future, whatever you want, Second Uncle will buy it for you!”
Ji Zi’ang ran over and asked expectantly, “Second Uncle, what about me?”
Li Yong, who was in a good mood, reached out to pat Ji Zi’ang’s head. “You, it all depends on my mood!”
Ji Zi’ang looked a little aggrieved, but Li Yong urged them, “Alright, alright. Hurry up and go.”
Ji Yuanyuan and Ji Zixuan each pulled Ji Zi’ang to to go to Qin Junshan’s place.
The nanny, Xiao Qi, opened the door and looked down. The three children were standing at the door, hand in hand.
“Why are you here so early today?” Xiao Qi was a little surprised.
Ji Yuanyuan carried the thermos and entered the house. Qin Junshan asked in surprise, “Oh, you have soup again today? Quick, Xiao Qi, get a bowl. My Granddaughter-in-law is so filial…”
Ever since Qin Junshan’s body had gotten better, Ji Yuanyuan had stopped bringing him soup.
It was just that when they came over, they would occasionally rush to pour water for Qin Junshan, changing the water to spiritual spring water.
Therefore, Qin Junshan was quite surprised to see Ji Yuanyuan carrying a thermos in her hand.
Ji Yuanyuan didn’t expect Qin Junshan to misunderstand. She said with an embarrassed expression, “Grandpa, this soup is for Auntie Xiaomin, not for you!”
After she finished speaking, she chuckled.
This laughter seemed particularly awkward at this time.
Qin Junshan was stunned for a moment before he sighed, “So it’s not for me!”
“Grandpa is a little sad!” he clutched his heart.
Ji Yuanyuan stepped forward and patted Qin Junshan’s shoulder. “Grandpa, don’t be sad. I’ll ask Mom to make more tomorrow for you to drink!”
Qin Junshan couldn’t help but laugh out loud when he saw the serious look on the little girl’s face.
“All right, hurry up and find your Auntie Xiaomin. Otherwise, the soup will get cold,” he said.
Ji Yuanyuan nodded and looked at the two. “Big Brother, Second Brother, you guys play with Grandpa. I’ll go look for Auntie Xiaomin.”
She was afraid that her two brothers would say something wrong, so she didn’t bring them along.
Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang also obediently called and did not follow.
Qin Junshan looked at the nanny, Xiao Qi, and ordered, “You send Yuanyuan over.”
The nanny, Xiao Qi, took the thermos from Ji Yuanyuan and went to Qin Xiaomin’s house.
The nanny, Xiao Qi, accompanied them. In addition, Ji Yuanyuan and Qin Mucheng were engaged when they were young.
No matter what Niu Ailan thought in her heart, she couldn’t reject her on the surface.
Just as she was bringing Ji Yuanyuan up to the second floor, Qin Xiaojie came down.
His classes were almost over, so he had to stay a little longer in China.
“Where did this little kid come from?” Qin Xiaojie saw Ji Yuanyuan and asked casually..
