Feng Ruoruo, wearing a small straw hat, stood beside the rear wheel of the pickup truck, pointed at the truck bed with her little hand and said, "No, Ruoruo, don't sit in the front. Ruoruo, you still want to sit here."
At this time, the little girl was almost soaked with sweat all over, and she looked like she had just been washed.
The mother also wiped the sweat with a towel, washed her daughter's face with warm water, and applied some sunscreen on her face. However, the mother still felt distressed to see her daughter in this state.
Su Ruoxi said to her daughter, "It's already noon. The sun will be very strong on the way back. Ruoruo will get sunburned. If Ruoruo gets tanned, she won't be pretty. And look, there's air conditioning in the car. Wasn't it very cool for Ruoruo sitting in it just now?"
Despite what her mother said, Feng Ruoruo was still unwilling to go back and sit in the car, insisting on sitting in the bed.
"No, Ruoruo should sit in the back with Grandpa, Grandma, and Brother Haohao. This way, Ruoruo can see many people when she goes back. Ruoruo has a little straw hat, so she won't be afraid of the sun."
Faced with her daughter's stubbornness, Su Ruoxi was really a little helpless.
She could only turn around and yell to her husband, "Feng Yifan, why don't you come and take care of your daughter?"
When Feng Youfan heard his wife's shouting, he could only run over quickly, then squatted in front of his daughter and began to persuade her.
"Ruoruo, mom is worried that you will get tanned and sunburned when you go back. Look outside, the sun is very strong now, so we can't be exposed to the sun outside. We have to sit in the car and avoid the sun, so that we won't get tanned or sunburned."
Feng Ruoruo looked outside the big shed in the parking lot, and the little girl could feel that it was very hot outside.
The little girl thought about it carefully, and suddenly asked her father: "Why does the sun want to shine on Ruoruo?"
Feng Yifan was a little stumped by his daughter's question.
Su Ruoxi, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but want to laugh, thinking that her husband had "shot himself in the foot" this time. Who told you to say something like "Mr. Sun" to your daughter? Mr. Sun is obviously good, and now you are saying that Mr. Sun can burn children, aren't you saying something bad about Mr. Sun
Su Ruoxi really wants to see her husband make a fool of himself. How is she going to make it right for her daughter this time
Feng Yifan thought for a moment and said, "Actually, the Sun God suddenly got angry not because of Ruoruo, but because he saw a lot of pests and bacteria outside, so he got angry and used his anger to kill all those pests and bacteria, thus protecting us."
Not only was Feng Ruoruo stunned by these words, Su Ruoxi was also stunned.
Even Yue Qihao, who was standing aside, felt that what Uncle Feng said made sense.
"Uncle Feng is right. The sun is there to kill viruses and bacteria. It's there to protect us all. So we shouldn't blame the sun for being so hot. Instead, we should be grateful. And we should avoid the times when the sun gets angry."
Feng Yifan looked at Yue Qihao. He didn't expect that this boy was so knowledgeable and could say so much along the lines of what he said.
Then Feng Yifan looked at his daughter and said, "Look, brother Haohao understands everything. Shouldn't Ruoruo just sit in the car obediently and not cause trouble for Grandpa Sun?"
This time, the little girl finally agreed, but she still asked: "Then, let grandpa, grandma, and brother Haohao sit in the car together."
Su Ruoxi couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Feng Yifan was stunned for a moment, then nodded and agreed: "Okay, everyone sit in the car."
Then everyone got in the car. Feng Ruoruo and her mother sat in the front row, her grandparents and grandfather sat in the back row, and Yue Qihao sat on his grandfather's lap.
Feng Ruoruo was in her mother's arms. She turned her head and looked at the back row, smiling and said, "This is great. We should all avoid the sun and let it kill all the bad bacteria. This way, we can all be healthy."
Lu Cuiling smiled and said, "It's only because our little baby Ruoruo can talk that we can all be healthy."
Feng Yifan started the car, and the car quickly drove out of the vegetable base and returned to the village.
Soon after entering the village, at the first intersection, Yue Qihao shouted to stop the car: "Uncle Feng, please park here. I will go home from here and will not go to your house for lunch."
Su Jinrong was a little surprised: "What's wrong? You're not going home for lunch?"
Yue Qihao said seriously: "Grandpa, I told grandma at noon that I would go home for lunch."
Lu Cuiling then said, "Your grandma is really a fool. How much money can a meal cost? Wouldn't it be better to have lunch? You can go to our house for lunch at noon and go back in the afternoon."
Yue Qihao laughed and said, "Grandma Lu, I eat Uncle Feng's food at your house every day. My grandma is jealous when she sees me eating so happily. So I want to go home and eat grandma's food so that she won't be jealous."
When Lu Cuiling heard the boy say this, she was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "Hahaha, your grandma is jealous?"
Feng Jiandong said: "Well, Haohao is a sensible child, so can you go back from here alone?"
Yue Qihao nodded: "Sure, I can go home all the way from this alley."
Feng Yifan parked the car on the side of the road, and Feng Jiandong opened the door and let the boy get out.
Yue Qihao stood under the car and waved, saying, "Goodbye, Grandpa and Grandma, Goodbye, Uncle Feng and Auntie, and bye, Ruoruo."
Feng Ruoruo leaned against the window and shouted, "Goodbye, Brother Haohao. Wait for Ruoruo to wake up at noon, then go find Ruoruo."
Yue Qihao smiled and replied: "Brother will come to see you in the evening. Brother has to do homework in the afternoon."
Su Ruoxi said softly to her daughter, "Brother has to do his homework. I'll come find you in the evening and take you out to play, okay?"
Feng Ruoruo nodded and agreed: "Okay, brother, you must come to see Ruoruo in the evening."
Yue Qihao agreed seriously: "Okay, I will definitely go."
Then the boy turned and ran to the side road, and after running a few steps he turned back and waved goodbye.
Feng Yifan watched the boy run back home before continuing to drive home.
After returning home, Feng Ruoruo immediately pushed the door open and went to look for her little duck. She had not forgotten the fireflies that her father helped her catch yesterday.
Feng Yifan first took his father-in-law's wheelchair down, let his father-in-law get out of the car and sit in the wheelchair, and then took down the various vegetables brought back from the vegetable garden.
Feng Ruoruo found her little duck under the persimmon tree in the yard, squatted there and talked to the little duck for a while.
Then the little girl saw her father holding a small basket, and immediately stood up and rushed to her father.
"Dad, are you going to cook all these dishes for lunch?"
Feng Yifan looked down at the things in the basket and said, "Well, I think they will all be eaten."
Then he asked his daughter: "Ruoruo, do you remember what vegetables we picked with grandpa and grandma today?"
Feng Ruoruo said without thinking: "Remember, we picked melons today, called bamboo melons."
Feng Yifan nodded and took out a bamboo shoot from the basket. He looked at his daughter and said, "Ruoruo, do you want dad to make you a dish with the bamboo shoot?"
Feng Ruoruo was silent for a while, and lowered her head as if she was thinking.
After a while, the little girl said, "Ruoruo wants Dad to use this to make snacks for Ruoruo."
puff…
Hearing her daughter say this, Su Ruoxi couldn't help but laugh out loud: "How is it? Our Chef Feng? Are you stumped by my daughter this time? My daughter wants to eat snacks, how are you going to make a snack for her with this bamboo shoot squash?"
In Su Ruoxi's opinion, winter squash is a vegetable, so it is impossible to be made into a dessert.
The dim sum my daughter requested was obviously not the usual dim sum on a Chinese table; it was definitely a Western dessert.
Feng Yifan saw his wife's smug look, and it was obvious that she was waiting to see him make a fool of himself. He was not angry at all, but smiled and said to his daughter, "Okay, Daddy promised Ruoruo that he would make a delicious snack for Ruoruo with this squash, and wait for Ruoruo to eat it after she wakes up from her nap."
When Feng Ruoruo heard her father say this, the little girl was naturally very happy and cheered.
"That's great. Dad, you must make it beautiful and delicious for Ruoruo."
Feng Yifan nodded and agreed: "Okay, it must be beautiful and delicious."
After her daughter jumped up and down to report to her grandparents, Su Ruoxi curiously asked her husband, "Can you really make a dessert with this squash?"
Feng Yifan smiled at his wife and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely make snacks for my daughter, but snacks don't have to be sweet."
When Su Ruoxi heard what her husband said, she immediately had some ideas in her mind. She thought her husband would cook it like a dish and give it to their daughter as a snack. Thinking of this, she did not forget to remind her husband: "Don't just cook it and use it to fool us Ruoruo."
Feng Yifan smiled and responded: "Don't worry, I guarantee that it will be delicious snacks and you will all like it after eating it."
Then, Feng Yifan walked to the kitchen and started to busy himself in the kitchen, washing the vegetables picked today and taking out some meat that had been prepared in advance.
Although no friends are coming over for dinner today, the food at home still needs to be delicious and beautiful.
After washing the bamboo shoots and drying them, Feng Yifan broke the skin of the bamboo shoots and scooped out the flesh. Then he used a knife to cut the bamboo shoots into very thin slices.
With every cut, the bamboo shoots were cut into long thin slices. With Feng Yifan's knife skills, the slices were so thin that you could see the words through them.
This is also the essence of the first dish that Feng Yifan is going to make today. The bamboo shoots must be cut thinly enough.
After Feng Ruoruo talked to her grandparents and grandfather for a while, the little girl couldn't help herself again and quietly slipped into the kitchen.
Feng Yifan didn't look back, but he could feel his daughter coming in.
"Feng Ruoruo, don't you feel hot? Wouldn't it be nice to go and enjoy the air conditioning with your grandparents, grandpa, and mom?"
After hearing what her father said, Feng Ruoruo knew that she was discovered by her father, and she immediately exclaimed: "Oh, my father discovered me."
Then, the little girl came closer to her father and gently pulled the hem of his clothes with her little hand: "Dad, but Ruoruo wants to be here with Dad. If Ruoruo is not here with Dad, Dad will be the only one cooking, and Dad will have no one to talk to."
Feng Yifan turned his head to look at his daughter, smiled and said, "Well, okay, Dad thanks Ruoruo for thinking of Dad."
The little girl raised her head and looked at her father. Seeing the smile on her father's face, the little girl naturally smiled too.
Then, Feng Ruoruo looked at the things on her father's chopping board and saw the bamboo shoots sliced thinly by her father. The little girl was very surprised when she saw it: "Oh, Dad, this is so thin, what is this?"
Feng Yifan introduced it to his daughter: "This is the bamboo shoot we picked this morning."
Feng Ruoruo looked at the thin slices that her father picked up with a knife. She could almost see through the slices and was amazed. But her father said it was a bamboo shoot, which made the little girl feel a little unbelievable: "Dad, bamboo shoots are not like this."
Hearing his daughter say this, Feng Yifan also explained with a smile: "The bamboo shoots were cut into slices by dad, and they became like this."
Feng Ruoruo was still very curious: "Dad, how can you cut it so thin?"
Feng Yifan pointed to his knife and said to his daughter: "First of all, you need a very sharp knife, and then you need to practice unremittingly to improve your knife skills, so that you can cut such thin slices."
Having said that, Feng Yifan gave another demonstration in front of his daughter.
Feng Ruoruo stared at it with curiosity at first, and soon she saw the knife in her father's hand. With just a few "clicks", she saw her father cut very thin slices.
The little girl reached out to take it out of curiosity, and Feng Yifan separated two pieces and handed them to his daughter.
Feng Ruoruo lifted the sheet and looked at it carefully on her hand. She was really surprised because the sheet was so thin that her pink and tender palm could be seen through.
Feng Ruoruo put the melon slices on her hands, waved them in front of her eyes, and said to her father with a smile, "Great, this feels cool when I put it on. Dad, put it on Ruoruo's face too, so she won't feel too hot."
Hearing his daughter's request, Feng Yifan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Feng Yifan naturally did not put the sticker on his daughter. Instead, he said to her, "Okay, if Ruoruo feels hot, go back quickly and enjoy the air conditioning with grandpa, grandma, and mom. When daddy has prepared the meal, we can eat together."
After hearing what her father said, Feng Ruoruo's little face was immediately filled with displeasure, and it was obvious that she didn't want to go out.
But it was really hot to stay here, and the girl was conflicted for a moment.
After a long silence, Feng Ruoruo pouted and said, "Dad, let's ask grandpa and grandma to install an air conditioner in the kitchen. That way, Ruoruo can stay with dad in the kitchen."
Hearing his daughter's words, Feng Yifan couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha, installing an air conditioner in the kitchen consumes a lot of electricity."
Feng Ruoruo pouted and said, "But Ruoruo is here with Daddy and it's hot. Really, it makes Ruoruo feel embarrassed."
The daughter pouted her lips and pinched her waist with her hands, looking as if she was making things difficult for the baby, which made Feng Yifan burst into laughter.
While the father was still thinking about how to persuade his daughter to go out, the mother's voice sounded outside: "Feng Ruoruo, come out, Mom and grandma will take you to take a shower. You have sweated so much today that your clothes are stinking from sweat. Let's go take a shower. After the shower, we should be able to eat."
Feng Yifan heard his wife's words and said to his daughter, "Go quickly. Mom is right. Go take a bath so that you won't stink. You can eat when you're done."
Feng Ruoruo first lowered her head and smelled her clothes and found that it did smell like sweat.
Then, without her father urging her, the little girl ran out quickly.
