The newly married reborn cold-faced boss dotes on his delicate wife
Chapter 172 This is their uncle
Steamed buns these days are big and solid, each weighing nearly half a pound. Jin Xiaowen and Jin Xiaobao ate two big steamed buns each, and Jin Xiaoyu, who was small, also ate one. For a child, this was a huge appetite.
Firstly, traveling was really hard, and his mother only gave them a few dollars, which was not enough for them to buy food every day, so most of the time they could only survive by eating dry food.
Later, when the dry food was finished, they could only buy a meal every day and share it among the three siblings.
Jin Xiaobao takes care of his older sister and younger sister, always thinking about letting them eat more, so he can only eat less.
But he got hungry quickly, so every day he would rinse a few bowls of water from the leftover lunch boxes and drink it until there was no trace of oil left in the lunch boxes.
Secondly, the food in the restaurant is really good. There are big fat meats that you can’t even eat during the Chinese New Year in your hometown, and big, white, fragrant steamed buns. They are so delicious that you can’t help but want to swallow your tongue.
There was only the base of the food left on the table. Jin Xiaobao stood up from the stool, picked up the plate, and ate all the remaining food directly into his mouth. Finally, he carefully wiped the soup with the steamed bun in his hand and stuffed the last bite of the steamed bun with soup into his mouth.
As the bun was large and his mouth was small, he chewed it with great effort and enjoyed the meal with great satisfaction.
Seeing the children like this, Li Changpu asked, "Are you full? If not, order some more food."
Jin Xiaowen was sensible enough to know that eating too much would make people annoyed, so he nodded and whispered, "No, I'm full."
What she said was half true. With two steamed buns and so many dishes, and especially plenty of oil and water, she must be full in her stomach and not hungry. But if you give her something more, she can still eat.
Jin Xiaobao shook his head and said, "I'm not full."
Li Changpu then asked, "What else should we eat?"
He pointed to the wall, where there was a blackboard with a menu written in chalk. Li Changpu asked, "Would you like some dumplings?"
Jin Xiaobao's face lit up with joy, and he said loudly, "Eat."
Seeing that the children were still able to eat, Li Changpu simply ordered two more pounds of pork and scallion dumplings.
When two large plates of steaming dumplings were served, Jin Xiaobao thought he was dreaming!
He couldn't wait to pick up one with chopsticks and stuff it into his mouth. As a result, he was panting and wanted to vomit because of the heat. However, he was reluctant to waste the dumpling, so he had to grit his teeth and finish it.
At this time, he saw Li Changpu saying to him seriously: "Sit down and eat slowly!"
Having not seen him for many years, Jin Xiaobao was very unfamiliar with his uncle Li Changpu, but he often heard his mother and the villagers talk about his uncle, saying that he was very powerful, a soldier and an officer, and a well-known figure in the whole county. Wherever he went, people would say, "Oh, you are the nephew of the eldest son of the Li family in Gaoshan Village."
He admired and respected his uncle. When he saw him wearing a military uniform to pick up his three siblings today, Jin Xiaobao's first thought was that his uncle was really tall and even more majestic and domineering than in the photo.
Then, Li Changpu's stern face and iron-blooded and resolute temperament made Jin Xiaobao a little afraid of him again.
So, when Li Changpu scolded him and asked him to sit down, he sat down obediently. If it was someone else, such as his two cheap uncles from his hometown, who dared to scold him, he would definitely spit in their faces.
Moreover, his uncle was very nice to them. He didn't beat or scold them like others did. He was also willing to give them so many good things to eat. Jin Xiaobao immediately regarded Li Changpu as a relative like his mother, father, and sister.
He said what he said, and he listened.
Jin Xiaobao sat down and started eating dumplings. He was afraid of being hungry, so he wanted to eat as much as he could at once. So when Li Changpu asked them if they wanted to eat anything else, even though he was no longer hungry, he still said, "Eat."
If you don’t eat this meal, you don’t know where the next meal will come from.
Although Jin Xiaobao is young, he has experienced a lot and is used to seeing the hypocritical faces of relatives and friends. As a child, his first reaction is to look at people with dark thoughts.
When Li Changpu asked them if they wanted to order more dishes, he knew that this was just a polite remark from the adults. They always said this. They clearly didn't want to give them food, but they pretended to ask them if they still wanted to eat, and then waited for you to refuse.
Jin Xiaobao doesn't do that. If you ask him, he will definitely say "still eating". It doesn't matter whether there are dates or not. Nothing is more important than filling his stomach.
Unexpectedly, Li Changpu ordered more dishes for them directly, and Jin Xiaobao could see that he was not unhappy because he ate too much.
His mother was right, he was their uncle and would treat them well.
Li Changpu was picking up dumplings for Jin Xiaoyu, and said to Jin Xiaowen, "Xiaowen, eat some more too."
Jin Xiaowen smelled the pork dumplings and was extremely greedy, but she was too embarrassed to pick up her chopsticks.
She had already eaten enough today. After hearing what Li Changpu said, a happy smile broke out on her face and she picked up the dumplings and ate them with confidence.
The food on the table just now is definitely enough for three children.
Li Changpu is an experienced person. He also went through the days of hunger and cold when he was a child. He knows very well that these children are not eating because they are hungry, but because of psychological factors that make them unable to stop.
He knew that this was called fear of hunger.
That's why he ordered two more kilograms of dumplings for the children and put them full on the table, so that they would feel safe.
But seeing that Jin Xiaoyu's stomach was swollen, he had to stop her and said, "Xiaoyu, you can't eat anymore."
"If you eat any more, your stomach will explode."
Jin Xiaoyu obediently put down her chopsticks, but her face still looked aggrieved, and she said timidly, "I don't want to eat anymore."
In the past, when she was at home, her grandparents and her uncle would directly hit her hands when she was using chopsticks to pick up food, and then tell her not to eat. In comparison, this uncle was very good, but when she heard that she was not allowed to eat, Jin Xiaoyu still felt a little aggrieved.
Li Changpu looked at Jin Xiaowen and Jin Xiaobao, who were eating slower, and said, "You too, stop eating when you're full."
The two children also put down their chopsticks.
Li Changpu put the lunch box on the table and said, "Pack up the dumplings you haven't finished. The next meal will be yours too."
Jin Xiaowen and Jin Xiaobao looked at each other. When they heard that they could have dumplings for the next meal, they were very surprised and happily started to pack the dumplings.
Li Changpu asked the children to get in the car.
When he saw the car, Jin Xiaobao excitedly touched it left and right, thinking, this is my uncle's car, I have never seen a better car than this in my hometown county, his uncle is so awesome.
Jin Xiaowen held her little sister in her arms and patted her brother with her hands to tell him not to move. She whispered, "Don't touch it or it will break."
Jin Xiaobao listened to his sister and climbed into the car swiftly. He sat in the back seat and touched his stomach comfortably. He hadn't eaten so full in a long time!
When Li Changpu was driving back, he saw an ox cart carrying passengers stuck in a big hole on the road. A group of people were surrounding it. A dozen men, women, young and old were pushing the cart with great effort. He stopped the car, asked the children to stay in the car, and he went down to help.
He pushed the cart with one hand and shouted, "Brother, push this way."
"One, two, three, get up."
"Come again."
"One, two, three, get up."
The crowd pushed the ox cart while shouting slogans.
……
Jin Xiaobao sat in the car, leaning against the window and looking at the figure in military uniform outside, and said, "Sister, I want to be a soldier like my uncle in the future."
Such a small person, but his eyes are full of admiration and yearning.
“He’s the most amazing person I’ve ever met.”
With everyone's efforts, the ox cart was finally pushed out of the pit. Li Changpu put down his rolled-up sleeves and trotted onto the cart.
The car drove away.
Guo Huifang's eyes always followed the imposing military green figure until his car drove away and disappeared at the end of the road.
She thought that since this man was wearing a military uniform, he must be a soldier stationed here. When she arrived at Chazipo, maybe she could meet him again.
