"Is it okay for me to call you like this?" the girl asked softly.

The man nodded, his voice becoming a little hoarse, "Okay."

After that, neither of them spoke. The rustling sound of wrapping the dumplings was heard along with the interlocking breathing of the two.

With Lu Jingchuan's help, all the pots of glutinous rice, pickled meat and pickled egg yolks were soon used up.

The two of them placed the wrapped dumplings in the pot one by one, turned on the fire, and started cooking the dumplings.

The water in the pot quickly boiled, bubbling, and the green triangular dumplings were cooked in the boiling water.

Shen Li put some remaining red beans and yellow beans into the grinding wheel and poured in some water.

She turned the grinding wheel with her hands, and soon the soy milk was ground.

Lu Jingchuan took four bowls and poured the ground soy milk into each bowl.

The fresh fragrance of banana leaves mixed with the sweet fragrance of soft glutinous rice, and the salty aroma of salted egg yolks and meat also wafted out.

"The rice dumplings are cooked." Shen Li said with a smile, and she was about to use a spoon to scoop out the rice dumplings one by one.

"Blank it, I'll do it." Lu Jingchuan took the iron spoon from Shen Li's palm, scooped out the dumplings one by one and put them on the plate.

"Then I'll go see the children." Shen Li felt that there was nothing left for her to do, so she spoke.

"Yeah." Lu Jingchuan nodded.

……

Shen Li walked towards the second floor.

At this time, the two children had woken up.

"Good morning." Shen Li stood at the stairs, looking at the two little kids who had just sat up from the bed.

At this time, Duoduo was wearing a little skirt, sitting on the bed, with two tufts of little hair on her head.

Xiao Minghui had already put on his green vest and black pants. He squatted in front of Duoduo's bed, and his dark little hands were putting shoes on Duoduo's little feet.

Xiao Minghui was clumsy and put on his shoes very carefully.

"Let me do it." Shen Li walked over quickly, bent down to pick up Duoduo's black little shoes on the ground, and was about to put them on Duoduo's right foot.

At this time, Xiao Minghui stood in front of Shen Li, staring at her vigilantly with his dark eyes.

Shen Li smiled helplessly, "It's just putting shoes on Duoduo, don't be so nervous."

Seeing that Shen Li had no intention of hurting Duoduo, Xiao Minghui finally moved away.

Shen Li quickly put the shoes on Duoduo's feet.

Li Cuicui is such an incompetent nanny.

The child's shoes are black, but he doesn't even know how to clean them.

It's already eight o'clock in the morning, and Li Cuicui's people haven't arrived yet.

Soon, the shoes were put on.

"Duoduo, can I carry you out of bed?" Shen Li curved her lips and smiled at Duoduo in a friendly manner.

Duoduo blinked her big dark eyes at Shen Li.

She ate the meat cooked by the beautiful aunt and a bowl of delicious noodles.

The beautiful aunt cooks such delicious food and smiles so gently at me, she must not be a bad person!

Duoduo held the somewhat worn-out teddy bear in her arms and nodded obediently.

Shen Li stretched out her arms and took Xiao Duoduo down from the bed.

Xiao Duoduo is already three years old, but she is still very light, even not as heavy as some one-year-old children.

You can pick up little Duoduo with just one arm.

Shen Li felt a little sorry for the child. She could tell from the looks of her face that she was malnourished. She would have to make more delicious food for her in the future to help her replenish her nutrition.

The moment Duoduo was held in Shen Li's arms, her big eyes like black grapes blinked, her eyes were full of confusion.

The beautiful aunt’s embrace is so warm...

Warm like a mother's embrace...

Her mother died when she was born. Other children had mothers, and she wanted a mother too...

She dreams of being gently coaxed by her mother, kissed by her mother, and hugged by her mother.

And now, her dream seemed to have come true.

Duoduo's slender little hands tentatively put their arms around Shen Li's neck. Seeing that the beautiful aunt was not unhappy, she was satisfied. Her dark eyes lit up, and she rubbed her little body against the beautiful aunt's arms, moving closer.

"Breakfast is ready. Auntie is carrying Duoduo downstairs." Shen Li curved her lips and smiled gently.

When Xiao Duoduo heard the word "breakfast", her big, dark and bright eyes lit up. She stretched out her pink little tongue and licked her little mouth.

Last night's dinner was the best thing she had ever eaten, what would breakfast be like or would it be just as good?

She likes pretty aunties!

Lu Minghui, who was standing by, was stunned when he saw Shen Li carrying Xiao Duoduo downstairs.

My sister used to be very resistant to strangers. She was unwilling to take the initiative to contact anyone, and she didn’t like to be disturbed by anyone. Even my father, my sister never got close to him. She stayed in her own little world all day, like a little snail curled up in her shell.

And now, Sister Snail seemed to have opened her heart to this beautiful woman.

She was actually willing to take the initiative to hug this beautiful woman.

"Minghui, let's go downstairs." Shen Li looked back at Lu Minghui.

Lu Minghui finally reacted and quickly followed.

When Shen Li came downstairs with the child in her arms, Lu Jingchuan had already placed the rice dumplings on a plate, and put a fried egg and a cup of soy milk on each person's seat.

Shen Li sat in her seat holding Xiao Duoduo, Xiao Minghui sat beside her, and she could only sit with Lu Jingchuan.

"Try the rice dumplings made by your Aunt Shen and see if they are delicious." Lu Jingchuan said.

Shen Li opened a rice dumpling, untied the silk thread wrapped around the rice dumpling bit by bit, turned over the rice dumpling leaves, and revealed the white and tender glutinous rice inside.

The glutinous rice mixed with red beans has a crystal clear luster in the sun, and the grains are full and dense, which makes people's appetite increase.

Shen Li handed the glutinous rice dumplings to Duoduo, "Duoduo, try it and see if you like it."

Duoduo opened her little mouth and took a bite. The moment she ate it, her big, black and clear eyes instantly became sparkling!

too delicious!

She took the rice dumpling and took a big bite.

Shen Li peeled another rice dumpling and handed it to Lu Minghui.

Lu Minghui said with a straight face, "I can do it myself."

He picked up a rice dumpling and started to unwrap it.

Shen Li didn't take it seriously. She knew that Xiao Minghui was not easy to approach. It would take time to get him to open his heart and live in harmony with him.

But it doesn’t matter, she has plenty of time and can take her time.

"Salty rice dumplings are delicious too." Lu Jingchuan opened a salty meat rice dumpling, took a bite, and said.

Lu Minghui, who was standing aside, raised his dark eyes and looked at Lu Jingchuan, his face becoming stern.

He had never seen Father Lu praise anyone.

Mr. Lu seems to like this beautiful woman a little.

In this case, is this woman destined to be their stepmother?

Then what about his future with his sister...

As he thought about it, Lu Minghui felt heavy-hearted, and the rice dumpling in his mouth no longer tasted delicious.

Lu Minghui stood up and walked upstairs with his thin body.

"Minghui, are you full?" Lu Jingchuan asked.

"Well, I'm going upstairs to do my homework." Lu Minghui said, his voice a little low.

Lu Jingchuan was a little puzzled. Why did this child only eat so little at noon today?

He clearly had a big bowl of noodles and ate a lot of meat last night.

Lu Jingchuan didn't think much about it and continued eating.

Shen Li sighed in her heart. She knew that Lu Minghui didn't like her arrival.

But it doesn’t matter, she is confident that she can conquer this sinister little boy.
