After seeing off her two good friends, Feng Ruoruo came back yawning all the way. As soon as she entered the door and saw her grandfather and father, the little girl forced herself to cheer up and ran to her father and hugged him.
"Ha, Dad, Ruoruo wants to sleep with you and mom today, okay?"
Seeing his daughter with sleepy eyes but still trying to sleep stubbornly with mom and dad, Feng Yifan felt pity for her.
He bent down and picked up his daughter, letting her little head rest on his shoulder.
Feng Yifan patted his daughter gently and said, "Okay, Ruoruo, if you want to sleep with mom and dad, then hurry up and go upstairs with mom to take a shower. Take a shower and then go to sleep."
With her little head resting on her father's shoulder, Feng Ruoruo began to fall into a daze.
I don’t know if she heard her father’s words clearly, the little girl just responded on her father’s shoulder: “Hmm…”
Feng Yifan turned his head to look at his daughter and realized that she was indeed sleepy. He wanted to carry her upstairs directly, but was stopped by his wife.
Su Ruoxi took her daughter from her husband's arms and whispered, "Ruoruo, let's go upstairs and take a shower, and then go to bed, okay?"
Being held by her mother, Feng Ruoruo turned around and hugged her mother again, as if she was worried that her mother would not let her sleep with her parents.
When Lu Cuiling saw her granddaughter's look, she reached out and gently patted the little girl's butt.
"You little thing, you just want to sleep with mom and dad, you don't like sleeping with grandma, right?"
The little girl was in a daze and actually knew that her grandmother had spanked her. She kept twisting her little butt, as if she didn't want to be spanked.
Seeing her granddaughter's cute appearance, Lu Cuiling said, "Okay, okay, hurry upstairs and wash up."
The mother and wife took their daughter upstairs, while Feng Yifan closed the door of the restaurant, then carefully checked the electrical circuits in the restaurant and went to the kitchen to check again.
Only after making sure there was no problem did he carry his father-in-law upstairs.
When I passed by the room, I heard my daughter's laughter coming from inside.
It was obvious that although the little girl was very sleepy, she was still quite awake during the bath and was still playing with her mother and grandmother.
Feng Yifan carried his father-in-law on his back into his father-in-law's bedroom, put his father-in-law on the bed, and quickly went to the bathroom to get water for his father-in-law to wash.
I wiped my father-in-law's body carefully and gave him a massage before letting him lie down.
Su Jinrong watched his son-in-law serve him, and he reached out and held his hand and said, "Yifan, if you want Su Ji to be more famous, that's good, but don't get lost in fame and fortune."
Feng Yifan was stunned at first by his father-in-law's words, but he soon understood what his father-in-law meant.
Combined with the previous sentence "do your duty well", this is the father-in-law's true intention.
Obviously? Su Jinrong felt that his son-in-law had too much to do, as he had to record a video reviewing the Fujinglou competition with Mr. Zhuang and also had to record a TV program. So many other things? Might cause distraction? So that Feng Yifan could not concentrate on cooking.
After understanding his father-in-law's intention, Feng Yifan held his father-in-law's hand and responded to him seriously.
"Dad, don't worry, I won't lose myself. I will remember my duty. I am just a cook. I should cook well and study some dishes. I cooperated with my uncle to comment on the competition and promised to record a program for Li Fei'er and others. In fact, these are also part of the study."
At this point, Feng Yifan paused for a moment and said seriously: "And I won't get involved too much. When Ruifeng's stall business stabilizes and Ruoruo has a holiday, we will go back to the countryside together to my parents' place. You can take good care of your health, and I will also study the dishes carefully."
After hearing his son-in-law say this and looking at his very determined eyes, Su Jinrong still believed in his son-in-law and understood that he should be able to do what he said.
"Okay, I'm glad you understand."
Feng Yifan continued, "Dad, you should rest early. You can also have a good rest in the next few days. Ruoxi and I will accompany you to exercise every day and try to help you recover early."
Su Jinrong smiled and said, "Okay, you guys should go to bed early too."
After saying goodbye to his father-in-law, closing the light and door of his room, Feng Yifan returned to his own room.
Just as he reached the door, the mother next door opened the door and waved to her son: "Come here, I have something to tell you."
Feng Yifan turned and went into his mother's room.
Lu Cuiling looked at her son and said seriously, "I think after this weekend, I will go back with your dad."
Hearing his mother's words, Feng Yifan was a little surprised: "Mom, you want to go back?"
Seeing her son's surprised expression, Lu Cuiling immediately laughed: "Why are you so surprised? Didn't we agree that when Ruoruo has a holiday, you will take Ruoruo to the countryside to play? Your dad and I will go back and pack up first, otherwise where will you stay when you go back?"
Feng Yifan was a little surprised by his mother's words: "Mom, isn't the house big enough for us?"
Lu Cuiling said immediately, "How can there not be enough accommodation? Your father and I have made some money in the past two years, and we renovated the houses left by your grandmother. Now we have a lot of living space at home, a three-story building, so no matter how many people you have, we can accommodate them when you return."
Seeing her son was a little confused, Lu Cuiling continued without waiting for him to ask, "I have to go back to clean up. Although there are houses at home, not many people live there, so I have to go back early to open the windows to let in some air, and also prepare sheets, quilts, pillows and other things for you."
After hearing what his mother said, Feng Yifan suddenly understood, and then said, "But, isn't it the same if we go back together and clean up?"
Lu Cuiling said seriously, "I've been here for so long, can't I go back and take a look? Besides, the streets outside are temporarily closed, and Su Ji can't open for business, so you guys are relatively free, and you don't need me to stay and help take care of Ruoruo, so I'll go back first."
Seeing his mother's firm attitude, Feng Yifan shook his head and sighed: "But Ruoruo will definitely be sad."
Lu Cuiling immediately said, "Let's talk to Ruoruo. Besides, you will be back soon, so we can meet then, right? I'm telling you in advance so that you and Ruoxi can remember to pay attention to Ruoruo's mood."
Feng Yifan finally nodded and agreed: "Okay, I will tell Ruoxi."
Finally, Lu Cuiling patted her son's shoulders vigorously with both hands and said, "My good son, you have really grown up now. You are an upright man, a husband, and a father. Mom is very happy to see you like this. You must maintain it and take good care of Ruoxi, Ruoruo and her daughter, as well as your father-in-law."
Feng Yifan responded to his mother seriously: "I know, Mom. I will take care of this family."
Lu Cuiling was very satisfied. She turned her son over with both hands and gave him a light kick: "That's enough, go back to sleep."
After being kicked by his mother, Feng Yifan turned around immediately, but after seeing his mother glaring at him, he could only leave, feeling both amused and helpless.
As soon as she walked out the door, Lu Cuiling, who had already laid down, said, "Close the door for me."
Feng Yifan had no choice but to be careful and close the door for his mother.
He would only go to his own room after closing his mother's door.
When I pushed the door open, I saw my wife hugging our daughter on the bed. I could see that our daughter was already asleep.
It was obvious that little Feng Ruoruo was very tired today, and it was already very late, so she fell asleep early in her mother's arms.
Feng Yifan walked in quietly, closed the door, then tiptoed into the bathroom to take a shower.
After washing up, Feng Yifan gently got on the bed, then lay down with his wife and daughter in his arms.
Although it was very gentle, the movement still woke up his wife.
Su Ruoxi glanced at her husband, then at her sleeping daughter, then gently moved her daughter so that her husband could lie down better.
After Feng Yifan lay down, Su Ruoxi whispered, "Are Dad and Mom asleep?"
Feng Yifan moved closer to his wife and whispered, "Everyone is asleep. Mom kicked me tonight. I don't know what I did wrong."
Su Ruoxi couldn't help laughing after hearing this, but she quickly glanced at her sleeping daughter, then covered her mouth to suppress the sound.
After controlling her laughter for a long time, Su Ruoxi looked at her husband and said, "Did mom kick you in the ass?"
Feng Yifan looked at his wife curiously: "How did you know?"
Su Ruoxi smiled and said, "Because I told mom that I was going to kick you. Who told you to entertain so many guests today and keep us busy all night?"
After hearing what his wife said, Feng Yifan finally understood that his mother had agreed with his wife about that kick.
Because there were too many guests at Su Ji's today, the entire Su Ji family was very busy, which made Lu Cuiling very dissatisfied. She felt that it was all Feng Yifan's fault.
Su Ruoxi smiled and said, "So my mother told me that after we finish cooking at night, she will definitely kick you in the ass and warn you not to show off again and to cook the dishes well."
This evening, Feng Yifan heard similar words for the third time.
My father-in-law said it, my mother said it, and now my wife said it.
This made Feng Yifan fall into deep thought. After thinking for a while, he asked in a deep voice: "Do you think that I shouldn't have agreed to so many people's requests? Shouldn't I have gone on Li Fei'er's show? Shouldn't I have continued to comment on the Fujinglou cooking competition with my uncle?"
Su Ruoxi said calmly: "Actually, I don't think these are a big deal. I believe my husband, Ruoruo's father, will not be distracted by these things, and will not stop cooking because of these miscellaneous things."
Feng Yifan listened to his wife's words and kissed her forehead: "Thank you, my wife."
Su Ruoxi continued, "I think it's okay to help Xixi's mother do the show. After all, Ruoruo and Xixi are good friends, and Li Fei'er is having a hard time too. We can help her, but I think that you and Uncle Shigong have agreed to comment on the cooking competition at Fujinglou, so it's actually unnecessary."
His wife's words made Feng Yifan fall into deep thought, and after thinking about it, he realized that what his wife said was indeed right.
Originally, I was going to record a video with my uncle-grandmaster to comment on the cooking competition at Fujinglou in order to compete with my aunt.
But now I have defeated my aunt, and she has completely withdrawn and no longer competes for Su Ji’s old plaque, so that matter seems to have become unnecessary.
Seeing her husband lost in thought, Su Ruoxi continued, "I think that instead of going to comment on the cooking competition at Fujinglou with Master Uncle, you should do a good job with Master Uncle on Xixi Mama's show. I think if that show is done well, it will have a greater influence and can also spread more food culture to everyone."
My wife's words really enlightened me and woke me up.
Feng Yifan suddenly figured out a lot of things.
It was just as his wife said, the matter of reviewing the cooking competition at Fujinglou that he had discussed with Mr. Zhuang now seemed to be meaningless.
On the contrary, Li Feier's show will be more meaningful in the future.
A program like "Taste Huaicheng" not only promotes some local dishes of Huaicheng, but also promotes the culture behind various dishes.
Through such programs, more people can understand the cultural core of Chinese cuisine.
Maybe the show didn’t have much impact on Feng Yifan and Zhuang Daozhong themselves.
However, as long as the program is broadcast, it will inevitably bring a certain amount of publicity to Huaicheng, and will also allow more people to understand Huaicheng and then understand Chinese food culture.
Judging from these, helping Li Fei'er to do that show is more meaningful than commenting on the Fujinglou competition.
Feng Yifan figured this out and said to his wife with a smile, "Thank you, honey. I understand. Tomorrow I will tell my uncle that we will not comment on the Fujinglou competition. I will personally invite my uncle to participate in Li Fei'er's program with me."
Su Ruoxi smiled and said to her husband: "Well, I believe my husband, he will definitely understand."
This time Feng Yifan kissed his wife and said, "Yes, I have been a little carried away recently, and even in Su Ji's business, I have been a little bit disregarding the rules and principles, which should not be the case.
Although our Su Ji business is better now, we still have to adhere to the principles and rules. We must not make such mistakes again in the future. We must correct them and continue to follow the rules of Su Ji and pass on Su Ji well. "
Su Ruoxi nodded: "That's right, I think Dad and Mom mean the same thing."
In fact, it was only after his wife’s reminder that Feng Yifan realized that he had been somewhat deviated during this period.
Perhaps because more and more people were following him, he thought he would never become arrogant, but he did not expect that he would unknowingly fall into a vicious circle of being dragged by those diners.
Everything that happened tonight was a wake-up call for Feng Yifan.
His wife's words also reminded him and made him realize many problems.
At this moment, Feng Yifan has decided to reduce his appearances on the Internet and in the media, or simply not show up at all, and just do what he should do as a chef.
Then take care of your family while doing business.
Thinking of this, Feng Yifan asked his wife: "Otherwise, we should just ask for leave for Ruoruo and go back to the countryside with our parents this weekend."
Su Ruoxi looked at her husband, thought for a moment and asked, "Mom, are you going back this weekend?"
Feng Yifan nodded: "Yes, after Dad comes this weekend, she and Dad will go back first to clean up the room for us, so that we have a place to stay when we return."
Su Ruoxi thought about it seriously and said, "We should not go back with our parents. Ruoruo's kindergarten is not on vacation yet, and if we leave directly, Ruifeng may not be able to run the stall alone. You can take him with you for a while, and wait until he is familiar with it and stable, then we can leave."
After listening to his wife's arrangement, Feng Yifan smiled and agreed: "Okay, I'll follow your instructions in everything."
The couple looked at each other, then slowly moved closer.
Their lips were about to touch, when Feng Ruoruo suddenly turned over, waved her little hand, and muttered, "Dad... Mom... Mmm..."
Being interrupted by their daughter, Feng Yifan and Su Ruoxi were stunned for a moment, then smiled at each other. They turned off the light and fell asleep with their daughter in their arms.
