After Da Bao ca back, Nuonuo imdiately returned to the past, always smiling sweetly with her little curly hair.
At dinner, she ate half a bowl of rice, then voluntarily asked for more.
This made Le Tong, her mom, very happy. You know, Little Nuonuo hadn’t had much of an appetite these days. No matter how much she coaxed her, she only took a few bites and said she was full. Watching her chubby little face get thinner by the day, Le Tong was heartbroken.
Little Treasure watched his mom happily scoop another half bowl of rice for his sister and looked up at Da Bao, "Brother, so you’re the digestant pill."
Little Treasure’s serious comnt made everyone at the table, except for Nuonuo, burst out laughing.
After Le Tong finished laughing, she jokingly continued while looking at Da Bao.
"Little Treasure, you’re wrong. Your Brother Da Bao is only a digestant pill for Nuonuo, right? Look at you, you’re eating only one bowl as usual."
Da Bao now understood why his dad always looked helpless, "Dad, aren’t you going to say sothing to your wife?" His expression even showed a bit of sympathy.
Ji Rui continued eating unconcerned, "I think your mom is right!"
Look, it’s really sad. Outside, he’s a big figure, commanding respect. But at ho, he’s his wife’s echo!
However, in Da Bao’s view, this is precisely where Dad and Mom’s happiness lies, or more accurately, this big family’s happiness.
Outside, he’s fierce and commanding, but at ho, he knows how to put away all his sharp edges and face his wife and children with the softest and most delicate side.
In the future, maybe he’ll beco such a man?
Working hard outside to provide for his wife and children, then coming ho to make them feel endless love with tolerance and tenderness, even spoiling them.
In Da Bao’s eyes, the dad who was once irresponsible and needed his effort to get a little attention has unknowingly beco a very competent husband and dad.
"Fine, it’s my fault. In Dad’s eyes, when is Mom ever wrong?"
Da Bao was relentlessly teasing with words, but there was a slight smile on his face.
Ji Rui looked at him with a side-eye, "You’re making sound like a foolish king!"
Da Bao looked back at him, "If not a foolish king, then what?"
Le Tong placed an abalone into Da Bao’s bowl and then another one into Ji Rui’s bowl.
"Alright, alright, you two are equally matched, neither should talk about the other."
Da Bao was a bit reluctant, "What does this have to do with ?"
Le Tong glanced at Nuonuo, who was sitting next to Da Bao and eating heartily, suddenly squinting her eyes, "Baby son, how about a bet with Mommy?"
Da Bao couldn’t quite fathom the strange interest in his mom’s eyes. To be honest, he still felt that the most unpredictable person in this family was his mom.
"What are we betting?"
Le Tong had already finished eating, but her hands kept moving while she talked. Seeing that half a bowl of shelled shrimp was left, she stood up and scooped so into Little Treasure’s bowl, then poured the rest into Nuonuo’s bowl.
After dividing the shrimp, she sat down and looked at Da Bao, who was leisurely waiting for her answer opposite her.
"Bet that you’ll be just like your dad in the future, afraid of your wife!"
In the Ji Family, being afraid of one’s wife was a complint rather than an insult.
A mont ago, Da Bao was holding eye contact with Le Tong, but now he lowered his eyes and reached to grab a piece of chicken to put in his mouth.
"There’s nothing to bet on."
In Da Bao’s heart, of course, being afraid of one’s wife was nothing to be ashad of. Just like Dad was afraid of Mom. Is he really afraid?
It’s rely about doting on her and protecting her, not wanting her to have any unpleasant experiences.
In the future, if he loves a woman as deeply as Dad loves Mom, surely he will be afraid of his wife too.
Da Bao naturally thought this, so he felt his mom’s bet had no suspense.
The cards were already laid out; betting further was aningless.
Le Tong smiled intriguingly at her beloved son but didn’t insist any further.
The family quickly switched to other topics, chatting while eating. What usually took half an hour to eat stretched to over an hour.
Fortunately, Le Tong had the foresight to call the instructor earlier to take a day off. After dinner, the five of them moved outside to the yard, lying around in various positions on the grass, watching the stars and the moon.
Ever since she got off the big bus, except for going to the bathroom, Nuonuo hadn’t left Da Bao’s side much.
Now, she was directly lying on top of Da Bao, humming a song while leisurely swinging her little legs, her small hand clinging to Da Bao’s neck, in an extrely close manner.
"Nuonuo, where do you want to play tomorrow? Brother will accompany you."
Originally, being away from ho for so many days was sothing Da Bao was forced to do, so there shouldn’t have been any guilt.
But Da Bao felt deeply guilty. Touching her face now, the once plump and pleasing feel was gone, making his heart even heavier.
"Nowhere..." Nuonuo’s answer was straightforward and unexpected to Da Bao.
"Huh?! Why?"
Nuonuo could be more reserved around strangers, but with Da Bao and Little Treasure, she could also play very wildly.
After all, she’s just a child. What child doesn’t love to play? It’s just that differences in personality show different levels of desire to play.
"Play at ho!" Nuonuo, clinging to his neck, rubbed her forehead against his chin.
"Okay, play at ho then."
At Da Bao’s age, with such a calm nature, it didn’t matter where he played. After all, his goal was only to spend more ti with his brother and sister. As for where, it was all the sa.
"Brother, won’t you have military training anymore?"
Nuonuo had no concept of military training, so to her right now, military training seed as scary as a monster.
"No need, it’s just this once at the beginning of school. After that, Brother will take you to and from school."
The university schedule wasn’t tight, Da Bao calculated. Besides his studies, he could still drop off and pick up his brother and sister like before, and occasionally, he could spend a morning or afternoon at the Ji Family’s business.
"Dad, do I really have to be eighteen to take the driving test?"
At this mont, Da Bao felt it would be more convenient if he had a driver’s license.
"Of course, don’t even think about anything sneaky!"
Although Ji Rui doted on his children, and sotis you could even say he indulged them, he never compromised on principled issues!
"I know, I was just asking!" Da Bao also understood his dad’s good intentions and didn’t ntion any excessive demands.
