Chapter 389 Daily Cuteness Overload!

at all. He peeked his head in and grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth."My daughter is so beautiful, she must be blessed!"Tao Hongying affectionately hugged her daughter, but worry started to...Tao Hongying was tired after a long day, her arms ached. She only ate a few bites before putting down her chopsticks.

Jia Yin seeing that her mother was looking, took a spoon and fed her spoonful by spoonful the egg custard.

She was making plans in her heart. After these busy days, she would quickly arrange a small business for her mother so that she wouldn't be so tired and would also have the opportunity to shine!

Tao Hongying was unaware that her daughter was secretly plotting for her. She ate egg custard, lowering her head to gently rub her daughter's soft hair. Even if she was tired, she felt a sense of security in her heart...

The second day was Mid-Autumn Festival, but because the restaurant was busy, everyone went about their work as usual.

But he came back early in the afternoon because every household would gather together in the evening to admire the moon.

The old woman and Mrs. Cui, accompanied by He Grandma, Qiao's sister, Dongmei and others, were busy for most of the day, getting up early to deliver mooncakes to each household in the village.

Even the teachers and children in the school were not left out.

After lunchtime, they began preparing various ingredients.

The pots are ready for cooking - scrubbed clean, neatly arranged, and even the oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar are stored right by the stove.

Then, Tao Hongying and Jiahu were allowed to cook stir-fries in the kitchen, just in case they got too tired.

Originally, Old Man Li and Zhao Yuru were also supposed to bring the children back, but for some reason, the academy only gave them a half day off and did not allow the students to leave Lu'an Town.

Therefore, Jiarren and Liguer hurried back.

Li Laosan and Zhao Yuru couldn't possibly leave their two children alone during the festival, so they could only send a message to the tavern and let their family know that they would be staying in Lu'an for the holidays.

Li Laotai didn't mind.

As children grow up, they naturally can't be together all the time like they were when they were young. All that matters is that everyone is safe and well.

And this year, her most cherished eldest son returned home. If she had any further dissatisfaction, it was simply that she was too greedy.

But she, like everyone else, was curious about the school not having a holiday.

Then, after the meal, the table was cleared. People set out fruit, tea, and mooncakes in the courtyard and gathered together to admire the moon. Li Laotai herded the children away and quietly asked a few questions.

In the crowded teahouse, where all sorts of gossip flowed freely, Li Zhensheng replied: "I heard that a student from the academy had been communicating with a peasant woman from outside the town, which caused some trouble. The woman's family went to the academy and made a big scene."

"After consulting with the masters, the headmaster decided that there would be no full holiday for students before the New Year. Instead of a ten-day break, they would now have half a day off every five days."

Everyone nodded, and then they understood.

Jia Huan hasn't been in Luo An these past few days, and today he's been busy in the kitchen. I don't know what happened, but from snippets of conversation I overheard, he seems both guilty and fearful, yet also grateful.

Although they had never held hands, he and Wenjuan had been spending quite a bit of time together privately for so long. It just didn't seem right!

Luckily, Peng family's concubine was greedy and her own shop was involved. It just so happened that the grandmother came to visit and managed to put things down in time.

Otherwise, the one who would be gossiped about and ridiculed by everyone, losing all face, would be him and Wenjuan…

The more Jiāhuān thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he couldn't help but tremble.

At this time, Jia Yin ran over and squeezed into his arms, acting coquettishly, "Brother, hug me!"

Jia Huan easily picked up his younger sister and placed her on his lap. The chubby little girl seemed to radiate endless warmth, making him unconsciously hold her a little tighter.

Jia Yin leaned against her brother's arms, nibbling on a piece of fruit and mumbled, "Brother, is my seashell bed still there Has anyone stolen it You must have watched over it, that's mine!"

Thinking back to the daytime, Jia Huan couldn’t help but smile when he recalled that someone had offered a high price for the large conch shell. "Rest assured," he said, "it's not just me, Uncle and Fourth Aunt, everyone is watching over it. Don't even think about outsiders stealing it, or even touching it!"

"Hm, that's more like it! Mine, all mine!"

Jia Yin, overjoyed, waved her little hands as if there were silver in the air, reaching back with all her might.

Jīa huānxiozhè wò zhòu tā bāo gù yán shì de xiǎo shǒu, “Duì, dōu shì nǐ de, zhège zòngzi yě shì nǐ de!”

Jia Yin not only didn't get angry, but her eyes rolled around, and she immediately acted coquettishly, "Brother, Grandma said eat what you need to supplement! I also want to supplement, so my wound can heal faster!"

Jia Huan feigned ignorance, looking embarrassed and replied: "Ah, are you talking about zongzi This season, glutinous rice is easy to buy, but zongye leaves are hard to find!"

Jia Yin's eyes widened, and she waved her chubby hands even more frantically.

She wants to eat pig's trotters, pig's trotters! Who said they wanted to eat zongzi

You eat what you supplement, did she have to tie her little hands with even more layers after eating zongzi

Because the gossip about the academy scholars' scandals had already been spread, everyone couldn't help but look at Jiahuan a few more times.

At this moment, seeing him "secretly" bully his younger sister, Jia Yin was so angry that she almost blew up, but she couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Tao Hongying hugged her daughter, poking her little nose and smiling reproachfully: "Why are you so sly Just tell your brother what you want to eat, he'll make it for you. You don't have to be so clever and say what you want to eat is for health!"

"You're so greedy now, and you have so many tricks up your sleeve. Was it because your family fed you too much pig stomach and chicken heart when you were little"

Jia Yin hung her head, hugging the rolls of fat on her stomach, looking like a well-behaved child.

This broke old Li's heart. She cried out repeatedly, supporting her granddaughter, "What are you doing, what are you doing My little Fu Niu just wants to eat some pork trotters, and you keep bullying her! Tomorrow I'll buy ten or eight of them back, and let our Fu Niu have her fill!"

Funiu'er immediately ran out of her mother's arms and into her grandmother's embrace, "Wow, Grandma is the best! Funiu'er loves Grandma the most!"

"Grandma loves you the most!" Li Laotai hugged her granddaughter and kissed her deeply, saying with a beaming smile.

The grandparents were known for their daily displays of affection. The Li family was used to it, but outsiders found it both enviable and strange.

After all, this love thing is too embarrassing to talk about. Even if you feel it, no one would ever say it out loud...

Suddenly, there was the sound of horses galloping in the distance. It turned out that the Marquis had returned with several personal guards.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, there was a banquet in the palace. As the newly appointed Marquis of Xinting, he couldn't miss it. After finally getting out, he took his token and ordered the city gates to be opened before hurrying back.

Everyone was happy and rushed forward to greet each other.

The lord had a slight smell of alcohol on him. He was eager to go back and change his clothes, so he said to Li Laotai: "Auntie, the banquet at the palace wasn't very tasty. I'm actually quite hungry. Could you please make me a bowl of noodles"

"Oh, alright, alright!" Li Lao quickly agreed.

Then, the marquis took a bath and changed his clothes. When he came back to the Li family courtyard, there was not only a large bowl of bone broth noodles on the table, but also two dishes: a plate of egg pancakes.

The Lord didn't stand on ceremony either, picked up his chopsticks and started eating. After a hearty meal, he let out a long sigh of satisfaction.

Li Lao'er then joked, "Fortunately, I only received the official uniform and haven't been registered at the Ministry of Personnel, otherwise, I would be starving right now, and you'd have one more person to worry about."yful the Li family was upon Li Lao Si's return. As for the Marquis, after entering Xin Du, he went straight to the palace.He's been gone for several months now, and Jiangbei has once again become a ha...
