Chapter 301 This brat has mistaken his mother for someone else's.
In the kitchen, Xu Yiyi was teaching Yunniang how to cook, and the two could only stop and rest when the number of diners decreased in the afternoon.
"How are you? Tired, aren't you?"
Aunt Zhao sipped her fish soup. No new customers were coming for the time being, and the people working in the backyard also stopped.
A few people sat together chatting.
Yunniang sat on a small stool with her arms hanging limply, nodding weakly.
“I used to only cook two meals for the host on the ship, and rest the rest of the time. I’ve never spent so long in the kitchen like I have today.”
Yunniang was lucky to have won the favor of her master. After entering the mansion, she served the master's family for eleven or twelve years.
Later, they went to sea with merchant caravans, which made things even easier.
After all, there's only one master on the ship.
“It’s even busier at night. Before I opened the restaurant, I used to set up a stall at the dock, and we always ran out of ingredients to sell.”
Ah Rong said it with certainty.
Xu Yiyi came out of the shower room, her body radiating coolness, and slowly walked to the front.
"Miss!"
Sihai stood behind the counter, waving his little hands like a lucky cat.
"Hey! That woman's out."
Gao Haoming was drowsy, but he immediately woke up when he saw Xu Yiyi.
"Don't make such a fuss, it's too eye-catching!"
Xu Wenli smacked Gao Haoming on the head with his fan. When Xu Yiyi looked up, Gao Haoming had just stepped back from the windowsill.
"Doesn't something feel off?"
Xu Yiyi walked behind the counter, bent down, and picked up Wu Yuan, who was eating tiny feet, from the basket.
A-Yue silently shook her head.
"After the number of people increases..."
As she spoke, she suddenly reached out and caught Sihai, who was about to fall. "It's like the tide is carrying broken seashells, and everyone's scent is mixed together, making it impossible to distinguish them."
Xu Yiyi remained silent for a while, looking around at the guests in the courtyard who were drinking and boasting.
"Please pick Er'er up when she comes back from the clinic later. I'll pick up Sanchuan."
A-Yue nodded. "That's all we can do for now."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Yiyi carried the yawning Wu Yuan back to the backyard.
"If there are any more customers ordering food later, Yunniang, you can make it as you see fit. If you really don't know how, then come and call me."
Xu Yiyi's eyelids felt like they were weighed down with lead, pounding against her eyelashes again and again.
Yunniang responded.
"Let's take a good rest, my older sister is exhausted..."
Xu Yiyi rubbed her chin against Wu Yuan's hair. The two of them, one big and one small, lay on the bed and were soon overwhelmed by a wave of weariness.
When I woke up again, the setting sun had already turned the window orange-red.
There was no one around as he came out of the room.
Sihai was whipping his whip in the courtyard, while Wuyuan sat in a rattan chair, humming and kicking his legs, his chubby little hands still clutching half a piece of fish cake that he hadn't finished eating.
"Miss?"
……
"What's wrong, Sihai? Did you feed your brother the fish cake?"
Xu Yiyi, who was originally a very vigilant person, has been sleeping very soundly these past two days because she is too tired.
Wu Yuan must have woken up hungry and asked Si Hai to carry him out. I don't know if he cried or not.
Sihai smiled and said, "Wuyuan can talk now."
"real or fake?"
Xu Yiyi looked on with delight, and saw that Wu Yuan's eyes were shining as he stared at her.
"Why don't you call one for me to hear?"
She knelt down and wiped the drool off the child's chin.
"Call me 'sister'... Sister—Sister—"
As soon as she leaned closer, Wu Yuan immediately pushed himself up and pounced on her, his chubby cheeks slamming directly into her face.
Suddenly, he opened his mouth.
He cried out "Ah—ah," his tongue pressed against his gums, unable to produce a complete sound. The last syllable lingered in his throat, turning into a sticky "Niang...niang."
His little fingers were still tugging at the stray hairs at Xu Yiyi's temples, and drool dripped down his chin onto her face.
"Oh no, this brat has mistaken his mother for someone else's..."
Xu Yiyi's vision went black, and she stood up by supporting herself on the ground.
Sihai covered her mouth and laughed.
"Still laughing? Behave yourself and teach Wu Yuan to call me Big Sister! I'm going to fetch your Third Brother back."
Xu Yiyi laughed in exasperation, pinched Sihai's cheek, and walked out.
When we arrived at the Xiang family's house, the front door was just open.
