Si Tian couldn’t help smelling the fragrance. She took her chopsticks and tasted a small piece of bamboo shoots by herself. It was tender, fragrant, and delicious.
Si Tian put down her chopsticks restrainedly, fearing that she would not be able to hold back and eat more here. She silently gave Ji Jiangzhou extra points in her heart.
This was really a modern snail girl1The ‘snail girl’ came from a famous Chinese folklore. However in Chinese today, people use the word ‘snail girl’ (田螺姑娘) for people who take care of cooking and other trolls in the households.!
Si Tian deliberately lingered in the kitchen for a while, and then there was a knock on the door, and the voices of two children sounded outside the door: “Mom, open the door quickly. We are here to help you!”
Si Tian opened the door, with a kind smile on her face: “No need to help, Mom has already cooked.”
When the two children saw the dishes in the kitchen, their eyes widened. Ji Zhile swallowed his saliva. Although he always felt that the food cooked by his mother was not delicious, he said at this moment: “It looks delicious.”
Ji Ningyi said: “It smells good too.”
“Mom is amazing!” Finally, the two children said in unison.
Si Tian took the praise that should not belong to her with a smile: “Come and eat.”
Ji Zhile nodded while eating, praising this and that, and finally said, “It would be great if Dad were here. Mom’s cooking is as delicious as his.”
Ji Ningyi poked his arm, reminding him not to reveal that their father was with them.
Ji Zhile rolled his eyes, trying to make up for himself: “We can see Dad when we get home.”
He could count and knew that in two days they would be able to go home.
These few dishes could fool two children, but not the audience.
[Did Si Tian really do this? Can a person really change so much in a short period of time?]
[I know how to cook, but it’s impossible to say that it’s impossible. The time is probably enough to cook two dishes, and the rest are probably ordered by takeaway.]
[Okay, it’s okay to take it away. Don’t worry about the two children. Eat better during the growth stage. Let’s see how delicious Zai Zai eats tonight. Be good and eat more!]
[Which takeaway restaurant is this? The food is really good]
[They worked so hard to earn some money, but in the end, it was all spent on food. Thank you for your hard work.]
Ji Ningyi and Ji Zhile didn’t feel that it was hard work at all. Ji Zhile even told Si Tian that he would want to eat it again tomorrow. Si Tian looked at his innocent eyes and thought that he should say this to his own father.
After they ate and washed the dishes, they finally finished their day’s work. The staff left their house, and after a while, Ji Jiangzhou walked out of the room.
As soon as the two children saw him, they immediately shouted: “Dad!”
Ji Zhile immediately said: “Dad, the meal cooked by Mom today is super delicious, but it’s a pity that you didn’t taste it.”
Ji Ningyi also nodded, recalling the taste just now, and said: “It’s similar to what Dad made. It’s very fragrant.”
Ji Jiangzhou glanced at Si Tian with a half-smile, but Si Tian looked away silently. Just as she was about to admit that the dinner was not her work, Ji Jiangzhou’s gentle voice rang out: “Mom is great.”
The two children nodded in unison, agreeing with this sentence very much.
Ji Zhile showed Ji Jiangzhou the plaster dolls they painted this afternoon and said, “When we get home, Dad will also give us plaster dolls. I will paint Mom and Dad.”
“I want to paint Mom beautifully!”
Si Tian suddenly remembered the picture Ji Zhile gave her. It was really not beautiful. She tried her best to wink at Ji Jiangzhou to tell him to refuse, but Ji Jiangzhou was talking to his youngest son and his eyes also fell on Ji Zhile, so he did not notice Si Tian’s eagerness.
“That’s right, but Zhile, Dad thinks it would be more meaningful to paint yourself. When we get home, can we buy a doll that looks similar to Zhile and let Zhile color it himself?”
When Ji Zhile heard this, he nodded on the spot. He was not only happy but also touched. He threw himself into his father’s arms and said, “Dad is so kind. I love Dad so much!”
Ji Jiangzhou smiled slightly, already experienced and content. Si Tian admired him very much.
Although Ji Jiangzhou had only been here for half a day, their quality of life had directly improved by several degrees, first in terms of food, and secondly in terms of food.
But it also brought up a question, where would Ji Jiangzhou sleep at night? After the two children fell asleep, Si Tian began to think about this issue.
Although they lived in a villa, it was incomparable to the one at their own house, and there were only two bedrooms that they usually used.
Ji Jiangzhou showed no requirements for this and spoke in a very negotiable manner: “I can live anywhere.”
It was just that Si Tian could see his vague expectations in his eyes when they looked at each other. They were husband and wife now, so it was normal to sleep together.
However, Si Tian had other problems that she wanted to find out from Xiao Ai, so it was not convenient for her to sleep with others. She said, “Then, I will prepare a room for you to live in.”
Ji Jiangzhou lowered his eyelashes, with some disappointment in his eyes, but he still said considerately: “I can just clean it up myself. Just tell me where it is.”
He stood up as if he wanted to find a room, and his back showed a bit of grievance as if she had bullied him into quietly digesting his anger and swallowing his anger.
After walking two steps, he stopped, turned around, and said, “Si Tian, you go and rest first. I can do it myself.”
Si Tian quickly caught up with him and couldn’t help but say, “I’ll help you.”
Ji Jiangzhou whispered, “Okay.”
“What do you want to eat for lunch tomorrow? I’ll make it in advance and put it in the kitchen. You can just take it out when the time comes.” He asked virtuously again.
