Ever since moving into Old Man Linton’s house, Lily Turner’s favorite line to say was: If you dare bully , do you believe that I’ll tell Grandpa?
When Easton Hols first heard this, he thought it was funny but also annoying. Over ti, as he heard it more often, he got used to it.
Sotis, when she didn’t nag him with this line, he felt like sothing was missing and would even mischievously provoke her on purpose just to hear her shout it at him.
Watching the couple happily bicker, Old Man Linton’s heart blossod with joy, and he couldn’t hide the smile on his face.
"Grandpa! What are you laughing about all by yourself over there? Joy shared is joy multiplied, why don’t you tell us so we can laugh too?"
Seeing Old Man Linton laughing to himself, Lily Turner, clueless, got up and walked over to sit next to him, questioning him up close.
But Old Man Linton played mysterious, putting away his smile and firmly declared, "Why should I tell you two? I won’t tell! I absolutely won’t tell you!"
At that mont, Old Man Linton appeared just like a cheeky old child.
They say people turn childish when they age, is this the so-called old child syndro?
Lily Turner wanted to press further, but seeing his deanor, she changed her mind, "As long as you’re happy. If you won’t tell, then you won’t tell."
Having such an optimistic and cheerful elder in the ho is wonderful!
"Girl! What do you want to eat tomorrow? I’ll have Aunt Li cook it for you."
Callix Linton decided not to continue this topic with Lily Turner and naturally transitioned the conversation to food.
When it cos to food, Lily Turner didn’t have any particular cravings like other pregnant won; she simply ate whatever Old Man Linton instructed Aunt Li to prepare.
Her appetite hadn’t increased due to the pregnancy; she still ate the sa amount, but the only change was that she no longer skipped dinner.
Having three proper als a day was finally normal for her, and this change reassured the others under the sa roof.
"Anything’s fine, whatever you all eat, I’ll eat."
When it ca to als, she felt she didn’t need to worry or think too much — Old Man Linton and Aunt Li had it covered; all she had to do was eat.
"Why do you always say that?"
Every ti he asked, he got the sa answer. Callix Linton felt sowhat helpless and shifted his gaze to Easton Hols, who had been silent for a while, with a disapproving look. "Kid! Can’t you ask your wife what she wants to eat?"
What’s with not saying a word for so long? Am I the only one concerned about the al matters, making seem like a foodie?
"My wife said it herself, anything’s fine," Easton Hols replied, glancing at Lily Turner sitting beside Callix Linton, "Wifey! Is that what you ant?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Old Man Linton imdiately glared at him disapprovingly, "You brat! Don’t you know she’s pregnant? Pregnant won usually have cravings, did you not know that?"
This was experience talking, not just sothing he made up.
"My wife isn’t an average pregnant woman."
Upon hearing Callix Linton’s words, Easton Hols instinctively retorted with this phrase.
Ding dong! Ding dong!
Just as Old Man Linton was about to fire back, the doorbell rang inopportunely.
