Kapitel 69: Requesting

Mu Yangling took out a cabbage from the cellar. "Let's eat noodles with stewed cabbage tonight."

Xiuhong and Xiulan clapped and cheered. Bowen sniffed and said, "Do put more noodles and less vegetables."

Mu Yangling tapped his nose and said, "Dream on. We don't have so much noodles at home."

Little Bowen pouted and said, "Since you don't like noodles, why don't you give me your portion and I'll give you my cabbage?"

"Thanks but no thanks. There's no shortage of cabbage at home."

Seeing Little Bowen pout, Xiuhong hurriedly offered, "Cousin, I'll give you my portion."

"Xiuhong, don't indulge him. We need to eat a nutritionally-balanced diet, so we can't just feed him noodles. We should let him eat more vegetables and meat."

Little Bowen pointed out indignantly, "But you and Father don't like to eat vegetables and always eat just meat. You and Father are disobedient, too."
