The happy little days of the Ye family

Wang Chunyu was racking his brains in the kitchen thinking of new pastries, while not far away Ye Xilin and Xiao Qi were happily roasting sweet potatoes.

Ye Xilin never liked to eat alone, so he baked a sweet potato for everyone in the family, including Ye Qingqing next door.

There were many people in the Ye family, so Ye Xilin brought a bagful of sweet potatoes over to bake.

Fortunately, there were several stove holes. Ye Xilin put two sweet potatoes in each stove hole.

The giant sweet potato in Xiao Qi's hand was placed alone in a stove with the hottest charcoal fire.

Ye Xilin guards the stove every day to cook pig food. He usually eats roasted sweet potatoes and is very experienced in roasting sweet potatoes.

The best roasted sweet potatoes are those that look a little wilted and have less water, so they taste sweeter.

And the size of the sweet potatoes should not be too big. It is best to be thin, long and even, so that they can be cooked easily when roasted.

Like the giant sweet potato in Xiao Qi's hand, roasting it is a test of skill.

If you don’t bake it for enough time, the inside will still be raw. If you bake it for a long time, the outside will be burnt and the inside may not be cooked through.

Anyway, the sweet potatoes he picked just now were enough to eat, mainly to entertain the children.

Ye Xilin happily put the big sweet potatoes into the stove hole and buried them with Xiao Qi.

After putting the sweet potatoes in, Xiao Qi squatted beside the stove, staring straight at the roasted sweet potatoes inside.

Ye Xilin looked at the little guy's greedy appearance and couldn't help laughing:

"Little greedy cat, you are not hungry at home. There is always fish and meat."

Knowing that Ye Xilin was laughing at him, the little guy ignored him and pointed his butt at him.

"He has quite a temper. Just take a look here. You can't reach in and touch him, and you can't play with fire, you know."

Xiao Qi is playful and curious about everything. Every time he comes here, Ye Xilin always tells him not to play with fire.

"I know~, you can't play with fire~"

The little guy's attitude is very perfunctory, but his words deserve a good treatment.

"It's good to know. If you dare to play with fire secretly, I'll beat your ass to pieces."

Ye Xilin deliberately frightened him, and even patted the little butt facing him with his big hand.

The little guy covered his little butt with both hands, "Xiaoqi doesn't play with fire~, uncle is bad~"

"Our Xiao Qi is so good! Remember not to play with fire."

Looking at the little guy staring intently at the roasted sweet potatoes, Ye Xilin couldn't help but tell him again.

Not long after the sweet potatoes were put in, the sweet smell of roasted sweet potatoes came out of the stove, making Xiao Qi almost drool.

Ye Xilin looked at Xiao Qi's greedy look and couldn't help but tease the little guy again.

"Xiaoqi, uncle or Tangtang, which one do you like best?"

The little guy rubbed his little head and struggled for a while, then suddenly hugged Ye Xilin's thigh and said sweetly:

"Uncle~, Xiao Qi likes uncle the most~"

"Uncle's love for you is not in vain."

Ye Xilin happily hugged Xiao Qi into his arms and rubbed the little guy's little head.

Although Xiao Qi is young, he is very thoughtful. The little guy knows that his uncle has candy in his hand, so he coaxes his uncle to eat candy.

Ye Xilin, who was so excited, thought for a while and then asked:

"Your father and I, Xiao Qi, who do you like best?"

Ye Xiaoqi scratched his little head, but this time the little guy was stumped.

Ye Donglin usually hugs Xiao Qi to play with him when he comes back, and also gives him lifts and rides on big horses. Xiao Qi still likes his father.

But Ye Donglin's time at home was short, and his uncle Ye Xilin was the one who played with him more during the day.

Moreover, Ye Xilin would secretly give him sweets and roast sweet potatoes, and the two of them played very well.

Xiao Qi looked at Ye Xilin for a while, and then looked down at her little feet. After thinking about it, she still couldn't figure out what to do.

Seeing the little guy's troubled appearance, Ye Xilin urged with evil intentions:

"Come on, tell me, who do you like more, your father or me?"

The little guy's face was so anxious that he wrinkled up. Under Ye Xilin's urging, he said in a sweet voice:

"I like them all~, both dad and uncle Xiaoqi like it~"

Ye Xilin rubbed the little guy's furry head again and smiled happily:

"You little guy, you're pretty good at carrying water. You won't offend anyone."

Seeing Ye Xilin smiling, the little guy knew that he had been fooled and was a little angry.

Xiao Qi raised her white and tender chubby hands and slapped Ye Xilin's calf twice.

"Uncle is bad, uncle is a bad guy~"

The little guy's hands were fleshy and weak, and he had no strength at all when he hit his legs.

Ye Xilin teased the little guy for a while, and the smaller sweet potatoes were almost roasted.

The yard was filled with the sweet smell of roasted sweet potatoes. Both sweet potatoes and Xueqiu were fascinated by the smell of roasted sweet potatoes, and they lay beside them with drooling eyes.

Ye Xilin dug out a total of 6 medium sweet potatoes of about the same size in the three stoves.

Ye Xilin had already settled down. Mrs. Ye, Ye Mu, Wang Chunyu, him, Xiao Qi and his sister all had just one child each.

As for Xiaoqi’s giant sweet potato, it’s not yet baked. As for whether it could be baked through, he couldn't say that.

Even the sweet potatoes Ye Xilin picked were very good. Each one was bursting with sweet honey. You could tell they were delicious just by looking at them.

Looking at the honey flowing out of the sweet potatoes outside, Xiao Qi secretly swallowed and kept staring at the roasted sweet potatoes.

"Eat eat."

The little guy stretched out his little hand to get the sweet potato.

"It's hot, don't worry."

Ye Xilin put all the sweet potatoes into a basket on the side. He held the sweet potatoes in one hand and held the little guy's hand with the other to deliver sweet potatoes to his family.

The stove for cooking pig food is next to the kitchen. Ye Xilin and Xiao Qi first delivered roasted sweet potatoes to Wang Chunyu.

At this time, the little guy had forgotten that Wang Chunyu ignored him just now. When he saw Wang Chunyu, he immediately ran over and hugged his mother without letting go.

The mother and son were sticky for a while. Just when Wang Chunyu wanted to ask him to eat roasted sweet potatoes together, the little guy ran away to find Ye Xilin.

The little guy was still thinking about his roasted sweet potatoes and ran towards Ye Xilin without looking back.

Wang Chunyu looked at the little guy's happy back and felt a little disappointed.

Ye Xilin held Xiao Qi's hand, and the two went to find Ye's mother again.

Usually at this time, his mother is doing embroidery in the house.

Ye Xilin did not disturb Ye Mu, put the sweet potatoes on the table, said something to her and left with Xiao Qi.

Old Mrs. Ye was tending her small vegetable garden at the door. When she saw Ye Xilin and Xiao Qi coming to deliver roasted sweet potatoes, she was so happy that her mouth almost reached behind her ears.

"Okay, okay, our Xiao Qi is so good."

Taking the roasted sweet potato from Xiao Qi's hand, Mrs. Ye looked at the little guy with a loving face, and was so happy that she couldn't even close her mouth.

Ye Xilin was very dissatisfied when he saw that Mrs. Ye didn't even look at him.

"Grandma, there's also me. I baked these sweet potatoes."

Mrs. Ye deliberately teased him, pretending to be very perfunctory and said:

"Oh, you're still here."

"Hmph, Xiao Qi, let's go."

Ye Xilin forcibly pulled Xiao Qi away who was about to eat.

Seeing the two people walking out, Mrs. Ye couldn't help but ask again:

"Where are you going?"

"Go to my sister's place and give her roasted sweet potatoes."
