212 The Ignored Qin Huai

Little Ah Yu shouted at Wenwen, “Sister Wenwen!”

Her shout attracted the attention of the Wang family to the door.

Wenwen was a little embarrassed and handed the pot over with a red face.

“Grandma asked me to bring this over,” she whispered.

Old Madam Wang glanced at Liu Shi, who went over to take the pot of food.

“Your grandmother is too polite. Wenwen, come in and sit.” Liu Shi brought the pot to the kitchen and took out the four-joy meatballs inside. After washing the pot, she filled it with the dried fish they had just fried.

Seeing Wenwen beside her who seemed to have something to say, Little Ah Yu also looked at her eagerly.

Liu Shi smiled. “You want to play with Ah Yu, right? Go on.”

Little Ah Yu jumped up in joy. “Mother, can I go to Liu’er’s house?”

Ever since Wenwen and Little Ah Yu became friends, Yang Liu had also become their companion.

“Sure. Remember to come back early. You can’t go anywhere else, understand?”

“Yes, yes, Ah Yu knows.” Little Ah Yu was extremely obedient.

Liu Shi finally understood. Her daughter had also learned how to wheedle. Usually, she would address herself as ‘I’. If she wanted to wheedle, she would call herself Ah Yu.

But what could she do? Her daughter was so cute.

Even if Liu Shi knew that Little Ah Yu was deliberately acting coquettish, she could only give in to her.

When the two little girls were about to go out, Liu Shi said to Tang Yuan at the side, “Follow Ah Yu. Make sure that she doesn’t suffer a heat stroke outside. Let her come back after playing.”

Tang Yuan nodded and hurriedly followed Little Ah Yu.

When Little Ah Yu saw Tang Yuan coming, she pulled her hand affectionately. “Big Sister Tang Yuan, Liu’er’s health is better now. Teacher made a new swing for her. Let’s go and try it out together.”

“Alright.” Tang Yuan smiled and tucked Ah Yu’s hair neatly behind her ear.

Tang Yuan had been in the Wang Family for a while. After some observation, the Wang Family was more at ease with Tang Yuan following Ah Yu now.

Although she was young, she was indeed very good at taking care of people. Sometimes, she could even notice details that the adults did not notice.

Most of the people on the streets were acquaintances of the Wang Family. After the incident last time, the Wang Family even specially brought buns to thank the various families.

Now, everyone would help watch over Ah Yu. This was also the reason why they were more at ease.

Recently, the weather was hot, and the children at home could not sit still. They went to the docks to wait for Wang Chuanman. It was not that they were idle. After doing the homework assigned by their teacher, they would also fish and swim by the river.

They were the ones who had fished up the dried fish today.

“Grandma, Grandpa, Father, Mother... Fourth Uncle, Fourth Aunt, Little Aunt, we’re going out to play!” Seeing that Little Ah Yu had gone out with Wenwen, the children called out to all the elders in the family in one go and could not wait to follow them out.

They only sat here initially because of their curiosity. Now that their curiosity had dissipated, they did not want to stay any longer.

Old Madam Wang said with disdain, “Hurry up and leave. My eyes are bulging just looking at you! No one will call you back at night. If you miss dinner, don’t blame me for going hungry!”

Wang Wulang replied loudly, “Got it! We’ll definitely come back early!”

Little Ah Yu accompanied Wenwen and brought the fried dried fish back to the Wen family before planning to go to the Yang Family.

However, she was stopped by Qin Huai on the way.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Little Ah Yu did not expect to see Qin Huai and was a little happy. “Big Brother Ah You, why are you here? Are you going out to play too?”

Although Qin Huai’s face was expressionless, Wenwen, who was beside him, felt that he seemed a little bitter.

“Will you never think of me again if you didn’t meet me?”

Previously, after Little Ah Yu left school every day, she would follow her brothers to Qin Huai’s house. In the past two days, everyone felt that the weather was too hot and did not let Little Ah Yu continue learning martial arts.

Little Ah Yu was playing well with Wenwen and the others. Every day after school, she wanted to play with Wenwen and the others.

She had completely forgotten about Qin Huai.

“No, I miss Big Brother Ah You sometimes.”

Qin Huai: “Didn’t you want to eat Iced Edelweiss? I’ve made it for you. But you didn’t come even after it melted.”

Chi Jia coughed at the side.

Young Master, should I remind you that although you’re indeed young, there’s no need to be so childish?

Qin Huai looked at Chi Jia and realized that his tone did sound like a resentful wife.

“Forget it.” Qin Huai turned around and left.

When Little Ah Yu heard the words Iced Edelweiss, her eyes widened. When she heard that it’d melted, her eyelids drooped again.

The Iced Edelweiss was a special dish that Chi Jia had learned from outside. Actually, it was to cut ice into flower patterns by sculpting it with a knife. This still required a certain level of cooking foundation.

Of course, Chi Jia could not compare to an old master who had been doing it for decades. It was completely a miracle that he could make it using True Qi.

“Isn’t it gone?” Little Ah Yu muttered. She felt that Big Brother Ah You must be sad, but she didn’t remember that she had asked to eat it.

Of course, she did not remember this.

Qin Huai took two steps before his sleeve was grabbed.

He did not turn his head, but he listened carefully to Little Ah Yu’s voice. “I’m sorry, Big Brother Ah You. It’s all Ah Yu’s fault. I’ll compensate you!”

Qin Huai said nothing.

Little Ah Yu continued, “Then, let’s go to your house now. Can I bring Wenwen and Liu’er along?”

“Suit yourself.”

...

Although he said that it was up to her, Qin Huai had already said to Chi Jia beside him, “Prepare three servings of Iced Edelweiss.”

Chi Jia: “...” Young Master, don’t you think this is more troublesome for your subordinates?

Little Ah Yu and Wenwen went to fetch Yang Liu over and made their way to Qin Huai’s house.

Little Ah Yu was the youngest. Wenwen and Yang Liu took good care of her.

The three of them chatted and laughed. When they arrived at Qin Huai’s house, they saw that the stone table in front of them was already filled with all kinds of snacks.

Yang Liu and Wenwen looked at each other in embarrassment.

“We forgot to bring a gift.”

“It’s okay, I have it!” Little Ah Yu lowered her head and took out a pile of food from her pocket. There were fruits, crispy sweets, hemp potatoes, sweet cakes, lotus root, and even two pieces of dried fish.

There were actually quite a lot.

Yang Liu looked at Little Ah Yu’s pocket with an indescribable expression. “Ah Yu, why do you have everything in there?”

Little Ah Yu took out a handkerchief and wiped her little fingers. She chuckled. “Because I’m gluttonous!”

...

Little Ah Yu liked to hide things in her pocket, so Liu Shi specially sewed two oil cloth bags for her to store those things that were difficult to store.

“Ah Yu, your Second Aunt’s food is getting better and better. I think she can even open a restaurant!” Yang Liu’s health was not good, and her appetite was usually bad. However, she could always eat a lot of the things Little Ah Yu brought.

Little Ah Yu pondered seriously. “I also think that the food Second Aunt makes is better than the food from the stalls outside. Then when I earn money in the future, I’ll open a restaurant for Second Aunt. All of you have to come and support us!”

Wenwen: “Alright, alright. I’ll definitely be the first to support you!”

Yang Liu said, “Don’t sell it too expensive, I don’t have enough savings”

“Don’t worry, I’ll sell it to you at the cheapest price.” Little Ah Yu patted her chest and promised.

At the side, Qin Huai, who was waiting for Little Ah Yu to take the initiative to speak to him.

“...”

Where did the little cutie who used to revolve around him go?
