“Wow, it smells good. Daddy, what delicious food do you make this time?”
Before the small bun arrived, his voice sounded first, the next second, a small figure appeared at the door, he went across the door and moved straight to Sister-in-law Song, followed by Chu Ci, his son and Ling Wen who all wore a helpless but doting smile.
Seeing their arrival, especially they all heard that Chu Ci was quite learned, people of Wang family stood up prudently, even the old man took the initiative to offer the main seat for him, but Chu Ci did not really sit up, but only gently nodded at them, and then took his son and went to Ling Jingxuan’s side to sit down.
“Everyone, you needn’t stand on ceremony. Just take us as ordinary people.”
“We dare not…”
Old Lord Wang swept off the cold sweat with his trembling hand. How dare they treat him as an ordinary man? To be a scholar is to be the top of society. In their eyes, the position of a learned man is very noble, or even sacred.
“So you are the two things’ tutor? Pretty handsome.”
None of the Wangs dared to speak, and they even felt that a big breath was like blaspheming him. However, someone with no brains not only said something, but also stared at him with a blushing face. The only thing she hadn’t down was not drooling. Chu Ci slightly frowned, and then his eyes swept over at her blandly, “Yes, I am. Do you have any problem, ma’am?”
“No, no, no, no, I dare not, but Mr. Chu, I heard that you are very knowledgeable, anyway, you are a tutor. How about you teach my three kids altogether? It’s not that I am boasting, my third son is only eight years old, but he is very smart.”
Have you ever seen such a thick-skinned person? Who has ever seen such a thick-skinned person? Listening to her boasting with that proud face, the Wangs only felt all kinds of shame, only wishing to give her a slap in the face. And the few people of Ling family also wore a sullen face, and then their eyes swept over at the three kids behind her who were smiling like fools. Where did she get the confidence?
“I am not a tutor, ma’am, so I suggest you send him to a private school.”
His cold voice had no ups and downs, abruptly interrupted her. Lady Han’s face went stiff. As she was about to shrewish and make a scene, Wang Jingui who wore a pained expression instantly grabbed her. After making sure that she dare not open her mouth again, he turned to Chu Ci and said apologetically, “Sorry, Mr. Chu Ci. My wife is ignorant. I will lesson her after going back. I hope you wouldn’t mind.”
It’s really hard for him to marry a wife like that.
“Never mind. Uncle Jingui, don’t take it to the heart.”
He called him uncle? Then think about what he called Lady Han. It was clear enough who he was close to. Others might not notice it, but Yan Shengrui and Ling Jingxuan both noticed it. They exchanged an eye contact but still chose to stay silent.
“My lord, my ma’am, please have a taste. This is the food our Master Xuan has invented. Tastes quite good.”
Lady Yang and others picked an appropriate time to hand the sour and spicy rice noodles into everyone’s hands, which also indirectly resolved the embarrassment. Although the Wangs’ good mood was totally ruined, but, they couldn’t show it, so they could only shift their attention on the food.
Before they tasted it, the sour and spicy smell already went into their noses. The glittering and translucent rice noodles covered with a thin layer of minced stewed pork, a few fried soybeans and green chopped green onions sprinkled on the surface, perfect combination of color, aroma and taste! Everyone already couldn’t wait to eat it with the chopsticks. The moment the smooth rice noodles slipped into the mouth, the smell of the capsicol and the sour taste of the vinegar, and the scent of the minced stewed pork spread through the mouth. At last, the bean sprout on the bottom and a few slices of raw turnip made up the deficiency that the rice noodles were not so chewy. It tasted so much better than noodles!
“Delicious! Sister-in-law Song, I want another bowl.”
The small bun already forgot about the stomachache last time. Soon, he finished it already, even no soup left. Sister-in-law Song took the bowl and turned to look at Ling Jingxuan doubtfully. It’s not she didn’t want to let him eat more, but she was worried that he might have the stomachache again like last time.
“Look at your swollen belly! What! You wanna have another stomachache?”
Touching his chubby belly, Ling Jingxuan found it amused and knocked on his head. This silly kid only knew eating! He’d turn into a little fat pig instead of a meat-stuff bun if he kept eating like that.
“Oh, it’s so itchy, daddy, stop touching it. The sour and spicy rice noodles are so delicious. I wanna have another bowl, just one more bowl, ok? Daddy…”
Avoiding his hand, the small bun lay on his lap and acted cute, which amused Ling Jingxuan and Yan Shengrui, but meanwhile, they also felt angry. If was not that they didn’t want him to eat more. But, did he have to eat more after being full already?
“Xiaowu, be good. We still have to read books with Uncle Chu in the afternoon. You can’t eat more. We’ll eat at dinner later, OK?”
Ling Wen put down the chopsticks and walked over, took his little brother’s hand, touched his face and gently coaxed him. The small bun pouted his lips and looked at him and then Chu Ci and Chu Yan behind him, as if with great determination, he nodded with great difficulty, “Fine, Sister-in-law Song, save some for me to eat in the evening, don’t let daddy and others finish it all.”
“Sure, rest assured, little master Wu, there are a lot in the kitchen!”
Hearing the satisfactory answer, Ling Wu finally smiled again, and the whole family could not help laughing, the child…is a total little foodie!
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
