She is mine
Seeing so many tasty dishes in front of him, and then thinking that he usually ate like a pig, Liu Yunhe could not help but reach out to knock on Little Rock's head with his chopsticks. Little Rock easily dodged it.
Not only did he evade the boss's lecture, he even slammed the table twice.
"Hey, boss, you're stealing food. No wonder you sent me away. It's so unkind. Are you even family? You actually abandoned me."
Seeing how heartbroken the small stone was, Liu Yunhe almost vomited.
"The food is here. Start the meal, start the meal."
Lin Chunnuan and Dou Wang each held two bowls of rice in their hands. Lin Chunnuan felt really happy, this was the first time she had eaten rice in this world. Although the quality of the rice was not as good as the ones from her previous life, it was still better than nothing.
After placing the rice in front of everyone, Lin Chunnuan, Dou Wang, and Little Rock all looked at Liu Yunhe. Liu Yunhe stared at the three of them without saying a word, causing Lin Chunnuan to be unable to hold it in any longer.
Boss Liu, Uncle Liu, let's start the meal. Can we stop playing around?
Being called Uncle Liu by Lin Chunnuan, Liu Yunhe was so angry that he almost failed to catch his breath.
"Call him Big Brother Liu, call him Uncle again. No one is allowed to eat."
How old am I, to be called Uncle by a little girl? Liu Yunhe lowered his head and glanced at himself. Such a handsome, elegant, and beautiful young man, how can he be an uncle? I am only twenty-three this year, and at such a good age, to be called an uncle is too sad.
"Quickly call Big Brother! Quickly call Big Brother! Otherwise, we won't have any food to eat!"
The little stone quickly turned its spearhead around and began to persuade Chun Wen to compromise. Such a fragrant meal, if it really could not be eaten, then how vexing would that be. No, no matter what, it had to eat this meal.
He was just an eight-year-old girl, what was wrong with calling him Uncle, on what grounds did he have to change from Uncle to Big Brother? But, because he was hungry, Lin Chunnuan still knew his place.
"Big Brother Liu, let's start the meal. Otherwise, the taste of the dishes will be much worse when they get cold, don't you think?"
Lin Chunnuan held his hands together and supported her chin with his hands, her face was filled with flattery and even her voice had become softer, this was simply adultery, lowering her head for a meal, this was too embarrassing, but she was really hungry!
"Alright, since you're sincere about your promises, let's start the meal."
With that, the meal started. Liu Yunhe picked up the chopsticks faster than anyone else and filled them with shredded vegetables and red chilli. Although he could not call out his name, he could tell that the dish was very delicious.
"Ah, boss, you're cheating."
Seeing that Liu Yunhe was so quick to pick up a dish, Little Rock was even more reluctant to fall behind. He extended his chopsticks and picked up a small bowl of soy sauce for himself.
Dou Wang actually helped Lin Chunnuan pick up a piece of meat first. He didn't know what it was called, but seeing that it was oily and big pieces of meat, he was sure that it was very satisfying. He only wanted Spring Warm to eat more, but he was afraid that Boss Liu would think of something and picked up some vegetables instead.
"Wangzhige, eat this. I stewed Red Braised Meat for a long time, and the first thing I cooked was this. It only came out in the end.
He took a spoon from the side and scooped two spoonfuls of meat into Dou Wang's bowl along with the soup and water.
The two people who weren't served didn't have a temper because they didn't even think about taking care of the little girl first. On this point, the two adults couldn't even compare to a ten-year-old kid.
"Warm Spring, who taught you how to eat this dish? Why is it so delicious? The meat is soft, but not firewood. The meat is fat and not greasy, but it is also thin and fat.
Liu Yunhe was eating this dish that Lin Chunnuan called Red Braised Meat.
"I can't even eat meat, who else can I learn from?"
herself was a foodie, cooking delicious food was her forte. However, she could not say that she had specifically learnt it because she liked it. With her current status, even eating a mouthful of meat was a request of her.
Oh, it's warm spring, yet you can achieve this level just by thinking. I'm really willing to admit defeat, for the sake of cooking for my boss, I specifically learned a few moves. In the end, my boss said that I might as well not learn.
Little Rock was a very easy person to communicate with after getting to know him. He liked to talk a lot. Of course, the person who talked the most was the boss. Fortunately, the boss was a very strict and gentle person on the surface, otherwise, he would have been fired long ago.
Lin Chunnuan was laughing at his words, but she did not say much about the culinary arts, for fear of making a mistake. A person who could not even eat his fill was not an easy person, if one were to say that chickens, ducks, fishes, and meat were too smooth, would people think of them as monsters?
This was the most delicious meal he had ever had since he had returned to the Liuliu Town, better than what he had eaten at the little restaurant in the town. Of course, there were not as many people as that who had returned to the provincial capital, since after all, there were more resources there. However, in this little Liuliu Town, he was already very satisfied to be able to eat such a delicious meal.
"Warm Spring, if you have the chance, can you cook for us again? Not often, but sometimes. "
Lin Chunnuan also did not hold it, and very easily agreed.
"Of course you can, why not? The next time you come, prepare the ingredients, I'll cook for you."
Xiao Shi and Liu Yunhe were both happy, they felt that Lin Chunnuan was a good girl, generous, straightforward, and not hypocritical, really a good friend that was hard to come by. After the meal, she even cleaned up the dishes cleanly, and cleaned the kitchen so that there was not a speck of dust on it.
In the morning, Dou Wang came over to help Lin Chunnuan pack his things. Although he said that it was to pack his stuff, he actually wanted to use this room as an excuse to check up on yesterday's silver coins since it was still in the teahouse. He couldn't possibly look for money in front of others, right?
It wasn't that Dou Wang was suspicious, but he couldn't help but worry about the amount of money he had. That was why he was able to see it in the bag, so he was able to relax a little.
"Look for money here, I'll go help with the breakfast."
Lin Chunnuan didn't feel too good about staying the entire night and eating such a sumptuous meal, so she thought about it to help her eat breakfast again to make up for her guilt.
"Remember to leave behind one tael of silver. Wangzhige, we still need to buy something later."
Hearing Dou Wang's words, Lin Chunnuan went to the kitchen to busy himself with the work. This breakfast was actually easy to cook, a big pot of rice porridge, fried up the pot paste s with cornmeal, mixed some side dishes and then worked together. Only, Little Stone who was in the middle sneaked in, and after seeing that there were only two dishes left, Lin Chunnuan unwillingly discussed with Chun Wen.
"Warm Spring, can you cook two dishes? There's food in the kitchen anyways, you can make anything you want."
Seeing that Xiao Shi was looking at her with her eyes, Lin Chunnuan didn't reject her. She could probably guess what Xiao Shi was thinking.
So when Xiao Shi came out of the kitchen, Lin Chunnuan cooked six more dishes. However, she only brought out two dishes.
stonecrop, there are still four dishes left in the kitchen. I'll cover them with a veil, remember to warm them up at noon and eat with Big Brother Liu. Don't put them in the kitchen at night.
Hearing that he had cooked lunch for her, Little Rock was overjoyed. He immediately rushed over to hug her, but he did not think about the relationship between a man and a woman. He was only an eight-year-old girl, and he was already nineteen.
However, just as he rushed into the spring heat, Dou Wang dragged the spring warmth behind him. As Liu Yunhe looked at the scene in front of him, he did not know what to say, not to mention Little Rock's attitude of not treating him as an outsider, it was actually a lesson to him. He had only said that Dou Wang was too protective towards Lin Chunnuan.
"What are you doing? I'm just hugging a warm spring. What's wrong with that?"
Little Rock was very angry that he had missed out. Originally, he would most likely be able to hug her. This cute little girl, why did she give him a hug?
"No, I'm already eight years old, I can't just casually hug her."
However, Dou Wang refused to budge an inch and protected Lin Chunnuan in his arms.
"Then why are you holding her? Why can't I?"
Dou Wang was at a loss for words. He didn't know why he didn't want others to embrace him, but even if he didn't know why, he wouldn't let go.
"Am I his sister?"
Even if he managed to hug the little stone, Lin Chunnuan was indeed small, but Dou Wang's protective aura made Liu Yunhe exclaim in surprise. If Lin Chunnuan was bullied in front of Dou Wang, then Dou Wang would probably be able to kill him.
"Hurry up and eat. Don't you guys want to go shopping? It's a good time for us to have a good stroll at today's big event."
Liu Yunhe pulled the little stone that was about to say something onto the stool. Because Little Rock did not hug his benefactor angrily, he did not react at all; Dou Wang really did not want others to bump into Lin Chunnuan.
Just like how a small animal peed on its own territory, all the things inside the territory belong to itself. Dou Wang used his actions to tell others that she was mine, so you guys should stay far away from her.
