Chương 40: Contrasting Cuteness
Biên tập viên: Dragon Boat Translation
Mo Ruyue filled a bowl with the cooked noodles and a small plate of pickled vegetables that had been marinated before. She was about to feed Si Bao when she turned around and found that the babies were holding the bowls and chopsticks and staring at her.
She didn't know how long they had been staring at him.
"Why are you guys looking at me? Eat!"
Mo Ruyue said in surprise. She thought they were almost done eating, but now, not only did they not touch the dishes on the table, they didn't even finish much of the rice in their bowls.
"Mother, eldest brother, and second brother's food is not as good as yours. We really can't eat."
San Bao answered honestly. Da Bao and Er Bao glared at him at the same time while Tang Tang bit the tip of her chopsticks. She only stared at the noodles and soup in Mo Ruyue's hands. The saliva in her mouth flowed down her chopsticks and accumulated on the dining table.
Mo Ruyue was not surprised by this situation at all. She was a top assassin and also a top gourmet.
Cooking and constantly maintaining her energy were the two different ways she used to relieve stress.
After tasting her cooking, even the dishes made by a 5-star Michelin chef would be tasteless, let alone the cooking of Da Bao and Er Bao. It could be said that the babies were already afraid of hunger and dared not waste the food by biting the bullet and eating a few mouthfuls.
"There's still half a pot of noodle soup in the pot. Each of you can take a small bowl to eat as side dishes. It should be enough. I still have to feed Si Bao. I don't have time to make anything else."
It wasn't that Mo Ruyue didn't want to make more food for the babies, but no matter how hard it was to swallow the food made by Da Bao and Er Bao, it was the result of their efforts to help her share her worries. Besides, if she left for a period of time, would they not eat?
Da Bao was the first to stand up. He walked over and took out a new bowl. He filled a small bowl of noodle soup for his younger siblings one by one. After he was done, he realized that Mo Ruyue had already left.
He saw that the bottom of the pot was already empty, so he first boiled the pot out, then put his bowl of noodles, soup, and the food he had left for Mo Ruyue into the pot. He then covered the pot to keep it warm and then returned to the table to continue eating.
Although Si Bao's body was very weak, his appetite was still good. He took a bowl of noodles and soup and let him finish most of it. In the end, Mo Ruyue was afraid that he would eat too much and asked him to stop.
"Si Bao, lie down first. Later, your second and third brother will come back and help you walk. Then, you can sleep. You won't be so tired when you wake up tomorrow morning."
Mo Ruyue reminded him. When she saw Si Bao nod obediently, she reached out and patted his head to comfort him. Then, she took the remaining noodles, soup, and side dishes out.
By the time she returned to the kitchen, the babies had already finished eating. Even the bowls and chopsticks had been cleaned up, and they were about to leave.
"Er Bao, San Bao, help Si Bao get off the kang after you go back to the house. Tang Tang, you should be good too. Da Bao, stay here. I have something to tell you."
Mo Ruyue said to the babies.
The three babies went back to the house as she asked. Da Bao stood in front of Mo Ruyue and said with some doubt, "Is there something you need me for? If it's dinner, I'll keep your portion warm in the pot. "
Mo Ruyue shook her head. "It's not about that. Come and sit here. I'll tell you while I eat."
She went to the pot and opened the lid. When she saw the small bowl of noodle soup, she was stunned for a moment and turned to look at Da Bao, who was already at the table.
According to her judgment of the remaining broth after serving Si Bao the rice, there would be no leftovers if each of the four babies had a small bowl. Now that there was such a small bowl left for her, it was obvious that Da Bao did not eat his portion.
This little radish head was really very awkward, but he couldn't lower his head and even secretly cared about others. Really...
She placed the dishes on the table and deliberately gulped down the noodles and soup first. From the corner of her eye, she saw that Da Bao's lips seemed to curl up for a moment, but they quickly returned to normal. A smile flashed across her eyes.
See, he was still very happy that his efforts were being reciprocated. This was more like it. This was the reaction that a normal person should have. Although being tsundere was also very cute in contrast, when it was time to honestly express one's true feelings, one should still be honest.
Da Bao quietly watched Mo Ruyue eat a few mouthfuls of rice with the green pepper and egg he made before saying to him, "I called you here to tell you that the Qin family has already thought of a vicious way to frame us. What do you think about this?"
"You really went to the Qin family."
Da Bao was not surprised by Mo Ruyue's actions. If it was him, he would also think of ways to eavesdrop.
The Qin clan had suffered such a big loss in silence. How could they let it go? they would definitely think of some ways to stir up some trouble.
"Aren't you going to ask me what I just heard?"
Mo Ruyue looked at Da Bao's confident expression and suddenly felt a little unhappy. It was really glaring for such an arrogant expression to appear on the face of a little kid like him. He had only guessed her thoughts once, and he was a little too arrogant.
"Weren't you just about to tell me?"
Da Bao used the most indifferent attitude and honorifics to speak to Mo Ruyue. The sense of disharmony was particularly strong. He rarely called Mo Ruyue "mother" and only called her that a few times when she handed him the silver and bank notes she earned. Before that, he didn't address her. After that, he used the honorifics of "you".
Mo Ruyue felt a "crack" in her head, and a vein seemed to pop out from her temple. She put down her chopsticks and reached out to rub her forehead.
Damn kid, why did he look so uncute at this time?
Although she was complaining in her heart, she still had to say what was important. Mo Ruyue calmed her slightly boiling emotions and then told Da Bao what she had heard about Qin Qingyuan's plan.
"He still has such thoughts? I thought he was just an idiot, but I was wrong. "
Da Bao shook his head. From his expression, one could not tell that he was angry. His calmness did not seem to be faked.
He paused for a moment. "Such a plan full of loopholes. To think he still had the face to say it. And grandma and second uncle actually listened to him."
Da Bao's tone was filled with disdain, which also made Mo Ruyue raise her eyebrows.
"So you already have a way to deal with it?"
She admired Da Bao's performance during the separation today. She felt that he was now an adult who could take charge of things on his own and should try to face and solve some problems. This was also the reason why she had asked Da Bao to stay behind to talk about this matter alone.
"He's just adapting to the situation. Didn't you say that we have to consider everything before taking action? I have to see what he will do first. But as long as he does it, I will make him lose everything. He won't get any advantage."
Da Bao's face revealed a determined expression again, causing his small face to reveal a ruthlessness that should not belong to his age.
