Early in the morning, Feng Yifan, his wife and daughter woke up almost at the same time.
The family of three on the bed looked at each other, and then Feng Ruoruo stopped lying there obediently. The little girl turned over and got up, then climbed into her father's arms and lay on top of him.
"Yeah, this is very comfortable."
Seeing her daughter lying on her father like an old kitten, Su Ruoxi couldn't help laughing.
"You little thing, you just like to pester your dad like this. If your dad is not at home in the future, what will you do?"
After hearing what her mother said, Feng Ruoruo immediately raised her head in surprise. The little girl looked at her father seriously and asked, "Dad, where are you going when you're not at home? If you want to go out, you must take Ruoruo with you. You can't leave Ruoruo and mom. If you leave, Ruoruo won't like you anymore."
Feng Yifan smiled and hugged his daughter and said, "Don't worry, Daddy won't leave Ruoruo and Mommy."
Su Ruoxi continued, "Dad won't leave, but what if Ruoruo leaves in the future?"
Feng Ruoruo raised her little head again after hearing her mother's words. She looked at her mother in surprise and asked, "Ruoruo won't leave. Why would Ruoruo leave mom and dad? Ruoruo doesn't want to leave mom and dad."
As the little girl spoke, she reached out to hug her mother and dad tightly.
Being hugged by her daughter like this made Su Ruoxi feel a little amused and helpless.
She reached out and patted her daughter gently and said, "Ruoruo will grow up. When she grows up, she will leave mom and dad, because Ruoruo will have her own life, her own ideals and pursuits. Besides, Ruoruo will have to leave home when she goes to college."
When Feng Ruoruo heard what her mother said, her little face first fell into deep thought, and then she began to look distressed.
"But Ruoruo doesn't want to leave mom and dad. Ruoruo wants to be with mom and dad."
Feng Yifan smiled and said, "Well, actually when Ruoruo grows up and goes to college in another city, she won't be leaving mom and dad, because that's just a temporary absence. Ruoruo will come back in the future, and mom and dad will wait for Ruoruo to come back in grandpa's restaurant."
Feng Ruoruo raised her little head and looked at her father and mother. The little girl still didn't quite understand what a temporary separation meant.
However, after listening to her father's words, the little girl thought of the time when her father went abroad for many years and came back.
"Isn't it just like Dad? He went abroad and then came back?"
After hearing what his daughter said, Feng Yifan smiled and nodded: "Yes, just like dad, go out and learn something, and come back when you have learned it well."
Feng Ruoruo smiled again after hearing this answer: "Okay then? Ruoruo wants to be like dad? Go and learn well and come back later."
After hearing what her daughter said, Su Ruoxi also smiled.
Although the parents know in their hearts that their daughter is still a child who doesn’t understand many things, some of the things they say now may not count in the future.
But after hearing their daughter say this, the parents are still very happy and think their daughter is very well-behaved.
The family of three lay in bed for a while. Feng Yifan picked up his daughter and said, "Okay, Daddy has to get up and make breakfast for everyone. After breakfast, Daddy will take Ruoruo to kindergarten today, okay?"
When Feng Ruoruo heard what her father said, she still hugged her father's neck and said, "Dad, can Ruoruo not go to kindergarten today?"
This time, before Dad could speak, Mom said, "No, the kindergarten isn't closed yet. How can Ruoruo not go to kindergarten? Feng Ruoruo, you have to go to kindergarten, understand?"
The little girl was very unhappy when her mother said that. She pouted and let go of her mother's hand. Then she hugged her father's neck with both hands, ready to act coquettishly with her father in a low voice.
Su Ruoxi turned over and sat up, and continued to say to her daughter seriously, "Feng Ruoruo, come here, do you know that this is wrong? If you don't go to kindergarten, you can't learn from the teacher, and going to kindergarten is your current task, just like mom and dad have to get up to do business and teachers have to go to work."
When Feng Ruoruo heard her mother say this and saw that her mother was very serious, she quickly hugged her father and dared not say a word.
Feng Yifan saw his wife's serious look, and then looked at his daughter who was hugging him tightly.
He also hugged his daughter and sat up, then reached out and held his wife's hand. He patted his daughter gently and said, "Okay, let's just say Ruoruo. Actually, Ruoruo is so well-behaved, how could she not go to kindergarten? And if Ruoruo doesn't go, Xixi and Feifei won't be able to see Ruoruo."
The little girl still felt that her father's words made sense.
Especially since Dad said that if I didn’t go to kindergarten, Xixi and Feifei wouldn’t be able to see him.
This made Feng Ruoruo realize that she was going to kindergarten.
Because if she doesn't go to kindergarten, she won't be able to play with Xixi and Feifei today. What if Xixi and Feifei are "bullied" by other children in kindergarten
Thinking of this, Feng Ruoruo said in her father's arms: "Well, then Ruoruo has to go to kindergarten."
Hearing her daughter's words, Su Ruoxi immediately smiled with satisfaction.
Reaching out and gently pinching her daughter's little face, Su Ruoxi smiled and said, "That's right, and the kindergarten will be closed in ten days, so Ruoruo needs to hold on for ten days and be a good child who doesn't miss a day of kindergarten. Then mom and dad will give Ruoruo a big red flower."
When Feng Ruoruo heard about the big red flowers, she immediately perked up: "Mom and Dad, Ruoruo's number of small red flowers in kindergarten is almost catching up with Xixi, except that she has two fewer."
Feng Yifan said with surprise, "Really? Our Ruoruo is so amazing?"
Su Ruoxi also gave her daughter a thumbs up and said, "Ruoruo is awesome. Work hard and make sure we have only one less flower than Xixi."
Feng Ruoruo was praised by her parents. The little girl was very happy and a little pride appeared on her face.
"Then, if Ruoruo gets the big red flower from mom and dad, won't she be the same as Xixi?"
After hearing what their daughter said, Feng Yifan and Su Ruoxi looked at each other, and felt that it did make sense.
Su Ruoxi pinched her daughter's face and said, "That's right. When mom and dad give Ruoruo a big red flower, Ruoruo will have as much as Xixi."
Feng Ruoruo clapped her hands and said, "Great! Ruoruo finally caught up with Xixi."
Feng Yifan picked up his daughter and placed her in her mother's arms: "Okay, Ruoruo, continue to lie down with mom for a while. Dad will get up and go downstairs to make breakfast."
Feng Ruoruo climbed up from her mother's arms and said, "Dad, Dad, Ruoruo will go with you."
Seeing that the father and daughter were going together, Su Ruoxi smiled and lay down and said, "Okay, you two go together. Mom will lie down and sleep for a while. When you have finished breakfast, come up and call Mom."
Seeing her mother lying down again, Feng Ruoruo pouted and said, "Mom is such a lazy bum."
Su Ruoxi looked at her daughter and said with a smile, "Mom is a lazy bug. Mom won't get up early. She'll wait for Ruoruo and Dad to finish cooking before getting up to eat."
Feng Ruoruo heard her mother say this and pouted, "Then Ruoruo won't call mom. Let mom sleep all the time."
Su Ruoxi continued, "If Ruoruo doesn't yell, Dad will."
Feng Ruoruo immediately turned her head and looked at her father.
Facing the gazes of his daughter and wife, Feng Yifan also smiled and said, "Okay, the two of you stop bickering. Ruoruo, hurry up, brush your teeth, wash your face, and go downstairs with Dad."
Feng Ruoruo still listened to her father very much. She immediately got up from the bed and followed her father into the bathroom to wash up.
The father and daughter stood side by side in front of the sink, holding toothbrushes and teacups, and brushing their teeth together.
After brushing his teeth, the father washed his daughter's face first, and then washed his own face.
When the father and daughter came out together, Su Ruoxi threw a bottle of facial cream over and said, "Apply some to Ruoruo. Don't let Ruoruo's little face get too dry."
Feng Yifan also picked it up and applied some on his daughter's face and some on himself.
Then the father and daughter walked out of the room hand in hand and prepared to go downstairs to make breakfast.
Before closing the door, Feng Ruoruo poked her head out and shouted to her mother on the bed: "Mom is a lazy bum."
Su Ruoxi raised her head and saw that her daughter was making a face at her, and she did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Feng Yifan smiled at his wife and mouthed, "You take a nap. I'll come up and call you when breakfast is ready."
Seeing her husband's lip movements, Su Ruoxi smiled and nodded, then lay down and continued to sleep.
Feng Yifan closed the door and took his daughter downstairs quietly.
The father and daughter were very quiet. When they passed by grandma's door, Feng Ruoruo was still crouching, with a finger on her lips, saying to her father: "Shh, Dad, keep your voice down."
Seeing his daughter's look, Feng Yifan understood that she didn't want to disturb her grandmother.
He also imitated his daughter, made a gesture to keep quiet, and carefully walked with his daughter past the mother's room.
The father and daughter went downstairs together and came to the back kitchen. Feng Yifan changed into the cook's clothes and put on the apron and sleeves made by his grandmother for his daughter.
Then we went into the kitchen together and started preparing breakfast this morning.
Feng Yifan first asked his daughter: "Ruoruo, what would you like to eat this morning?"
Feng Ruoruo thought for a moment and said, "We want to eat wontons. Also, Ruoruo wants to eat something different. We don't want buns or siu mai."
Hearing his daughter say this, Feng Yifan thought for a moment and said, "How about this, Dad will make Ruoruo a hand-pulled pancake."
Feng Ruoruo was very curious: "What is a hand-pulled pancake?"
Feng Yifan smiled and said: "Shouzhabing is a pancake that can be eaten with your hands. It is crispy and delicious."
The little girl nodded immediately: "Okay, okay, if Ruoruo wants something to eat, Daddy, please make it quickly."
Then Feng Yifan took out the ingredients and placed them on the cooking table.
The first thing to do is to knead the dough. Use medium-gluten flour, add a little salt, and then knead the dough with warm water.
Then Feng Yifan kneaded the dough into a flocculent state and added a little bit of lard into the dough.
After the dough was kneaded into a ball, Feng Yifan took out the dough and began to beat it on the chopping board.
Feng Ruoruo was standing aside. Seeing this, the little girl was full of curiosity. She thought it was very interesting to see her father beating the dough. Then she couldn't help but stretch out her little hand and wanted to touch the dough in her father's hand.
When Feng Yifan saw his daughter's outstretched hand, he smiled, plucked off a small piece, and handed it to his daughter.
"Come on, Ruoruo, follow Dad and learn. But you have to be careful, this dough is a little sticky. If it feels sticky, you can use a little dry flour so it won't be sticky."
Feng Ruoruo got the dough and immediately followed her father, imitating him by throwing it on the chopping board.
Although the little girl's hands were small and she didn't have much strength, she was able to follow her father in beating the dough quite well because there was not much dough.
After beating the dough for a while, Feng Yifan rolled it into a dough and put it into a bowl to rise.
When Feng Ruoruo saw her father's expression, she handed the dough in her hand to her father.
"Dad, I want Ruoruo's too."
Feng Yifan took a small bowl and put his daughter's dough in it.
When kneading the dough, Feng Yifan cut some very fine chopped green onions, then melted and heated a mixture of lard and butter, then poured the chopped green onions in, immediately turned off the heat and stopped heating, using the residual heat to slowly stir-fry the flavor of the chopped green onions.
Let the dough rest for about fifteen minutes.
While the dough was kneading, Feng Yifan also prepared some other things, such as wonton fillings.
This is also Feng Yifan's characteristic when working in the kitchen. He always makes good use of every moment, so he can get everything done in a seemingly short time.
The wonton filling has been almost prepared and the dough is ready.
Take out the dough and flatten it directly on the chopping board without kneading it.
After rolling the dough into a relatively thin layer, apply a small amount of salt on it, and then brush the scallion oil on it.
Feng Yifan also cut the dough into strips and then rolled it up.
After rolling it up, Feng Yifan then coils the long strip of dough and finally forms it into a round, flat dough.
A total of four pancakes were plated out, and then they had to be set aside to rise for about eight minutes.
During this time, Feng Yifan quickly started making wontons.
When the wontons are partially wrapped, the dough is ready. Press the dough flat on the chopping board until it becomes a large pancake.
Then put it in the pan and fry it.
Slowly fry over medium heat, cover the pot and wait for a while.
At the same time, Feng Yifan continued to make wontons.
Wait for a while, open the pan and then turn the pancake over.
The moment the lid of the pot is opened, the rich aroma of oil, green onion, and noodles rushes out, instantly filling the entire kitchen with fragrance.
Feng Ruoruo, who was playing with her own dough, smelled the fragrance and immediately turned to look at her father.
"Dad, Dad, is it ready? Can we eat it?"
Feng Yifan smiled and replied to his daughter: "Not yet, but it will be soon, Ruoruo, wait a moment."
Feng Ruoruo obeyed obediently and continued to knead her dough. The way the little girl kneaded the dough really looked more and more like a little chef.
Finally, the hand-pulled pancakes were ready. Feng Yifan took the pancakes out of the pan, let them cool a little, and then gently squeezed them with his hands. The crispy pancakes immediately broke into strands, which looked very beautiful.
First pick up a piece and let my daughter taste it.
Feng Ruoruo ate a piece and exclaimed, "Wow, Dad, this is delicious, so fragrant, and crispy."
Feng Yifan smiled and asked, "Does Ruoruo like it?"
The daughter nodded and said, "I like it."
Feng Yifan was not in a hurry to cook the wontons. Instead, he said to his daughter, "Let's go upstairs quickly and call mom, grandpa and grandma to come downstairs and eat together."
Feng Ruoruo immediately agreed, asked her father to pick her up from the chair, and ran upstairs quickly.
Feng Yifan followed his daughter and found that although she had said that she didn't want to wake her mother up, she still ran directly to the room and called her mother after going upstairs.
