My childhood sweetheart, who was reborn with me, ended up as a loser.

Chapter 71 Surrender to a small child

There was no big meal at noon, but there was a big meal at lunchtime.

My maternal grandparents and uncle were all busy and didn't have time to cook, so we only had instant noodles for lunch.

It's just a deluxe version of instant noodles: a sausage, a braised egg, and a bowl of instant noodles. For a kid, that's a feast!

Children's taste buds are truly amazing. The braised beef noodles that Xu Qingfan and Xia Xiao ate to the point of vomiting before their rebirth became so delicious after they returned to their childhood!

They even found the instant noodles too spicy, and would drink a big gulp of water after just one bite.

The five of them sat at the entrance of the courtyard enjoying their meal. The cats and dogs in the house smelled the food and came over to eat and drink. Lin Wanning generously shared some of his food with them.

"Brother Qingfan, what's its name?" Lin Wanning asked, pointing at the big yellow dog.

Last time they came, the big yellow dog ran outside to attend a big meeting, and no one saw a single hair of it.

"It doesn't have a name, it's just called 'Dog.' When my grandma calls it back, she just calls 'Dog,' and it knows it's coming back when it hears my grandma's voice."

Xu Qingfan patted the big yellow dog that was eating noodles with its head down. In the countryside, dogs that are not kept to guard the house rarely guard their food.

"Doesn't this cat have a name?" Xiao Ruanwen asked.

"Yes, it does. Its name is Mimi. All the cats my grandma raised were named Mimi. This one is the second generation of Mimi. The previous one died after accidentally eating rat poison."

"what!"

"That's how it is with free-range animals; their lifespans are all very short. I'm actually quite worried about Xiaoyu. She often comes to us alone. Please be careful, okay?"

"Yeah, Brother Fan, I always cross the street where there are traffic lights!"

At the turn of the millennium, there were no barriers installed in the middle of the road, so there were a lot of pedestrians crossing the road and vehicles making U-turns at will, which was particularly dangerous.

"In short, don't be distracted when crossing the street, always pay attention to oncoming vehicles, don't go home too late, don't go to secluded places, and..."

"Xiao Fan, you're nagging again!"

"Hahaha!"

Xu Qingfan: ......

...

The five of them quickly devoured the instant noodles.

Wu Lingyu had initially pretended to be reserved, only drinking a little bit of the instant noodle soup left. But after seeing that Xu Qingfan and Xiao Ruanwen had finished every last drop of the soup, she stopped being reserved and drank the rest of the soup in one go.

"Burp~ I'm so full." Xiao Ruanwen rubbed her round belly. "I wish I could eat instant noodles every day from now on!"

Xu Qingfan and Xia Xiaoxiao exchanged a smile. Sure enough, everyone made such a promise in their childhood, and then when the dream came true, you were unhappy.

"Don't you have any ambition? You're content eating instant noodles every day? Why don't you say you eat KFC and McDonald's every day?"

"Oh my god, Xiao Fan, why didn't you say so sooner!" Xiao Ruanwen finally realized.

"Hahaha!"

"Xiaoyu, what do you want to eat every day?" Xu Qingfan tilted his head to look at her.

Seeing that Wu Lingyu was starting to think seriously, he added, "Don't mention bananas, those who eat bananas every day are monkeys!"

This is a bit of a hellish joke, because as anyone who has seen Odbiao knows, bananas are the staple food in many African countries.

However, children might naively believe that monkeys eat bananas every day, even though monkeys don't have bananas to eat every day either.

"I love eating New Year's Eve dinner the most. I wish I could eat New Year's Eve dinner every day!" Wu Lingyu thought for a long time and finally came up with an answer.

"Wow! Xiaoyu, you're so thoughtful! I wish I could have New Year's Eve dinner every day!"

"Ningning wants to eat New Year's Eve dinner every day too!"

I'm not sure about other places, but in most families in GD province, the New Year's Eve dinner is definitely better than McDonald's. Just the braised pork and poached chicken alone easily beat McDonald's.

However, Xu Qingfan has to admit that after the third day of the Lunar New Year, McDonald's is indeed more attractive, as those who know, know.

Wu Lingyu smiled happily, her eyes crinkling, revealing two shallow dimples on her cheeks.

Although her reason for wanting to eat New Year's Eve dinner every day wasn't because the dinner was delicious, she enjoyed the feeling that everyone agreed with her point of view. At this moment, Xiaoyu was not invisible!

"What does Brother Fan want to eat every day?" Wu Lingyu is starting to improve; she now dares to ask Xu Qingfan questions on her own initiative.

"Eating the same thing every day would get boring, right? I just want to eat delicious food every day, whatever it is. Of course, it's best to eat with everyone, because everything tastes better when you're with people!"

"Wow!"

"As expected of Xiao Fan, he really knows how to talk!"

"Everyone, eat!"

Xia Xiaoxiao rested her chin on her hand and looked at Xu Qingfan. Although she always called him Xu the pervert, Xia Xiaoxiao still felt that Xu Qingfan was charming at this moment, as if he was radiating light.

She couldn't help but wonder if, in her past life, if she had made a choice earlier, would Xiao Fan have been just as patient in teaching their children?

As for whether Xu Qingfan will dislike her?

Young people think that marriage requires love, but adults know that marriage is about finding someone suitable for each other to spend the rest of your lives together.

With both sets of parents approving of her, she was undoubtedly the most suitable person for Xu Qingfan.

"Xiaoxiao, what are you daydreaming about again? Come on, come and see our crayfish!" Xu Qingfan tapped Xia Xiaoxiao on the head three times and caught up with Wan Ning and the others.

Xia Xiaoxiao glared at him, but when it came to crayfish, Xiao Fan's spicy crayfish was still the one that suited her taste the best.

The snails and crayfish they collected were kept in a large red basin with well water. Next to them was a large red bucket containing the large soft-shelled turtle that Lin Wanning had caught. The bottom of the bucket was dirty and had a lot of black stuff on it, which was probably its droppings.

"Xiao Fan, are we going to eat this turtle tonight?" Xiao Ruanwen teased the turtle with a small wooden stick.

"I don't know! There's already so much meat and vegetables tonight. They killed a goose, a chicken, and a big fish that weighs over ten pounds. There are also freshwater prawns in the kitchen. Why am I already drooling?"

"Brother Qingfan, there are also crayfish and river snails!" Lin Wanning reminded him.

"The snails can't be eaten yet. They need to be kept alive for a few days because their bellies are full of sand, and they need to purge it clean," Xu Qingfan explained.

"What about the crayfish?" Xia Xiaoxiao rarely spoke up.

"We'll cook the crayfish after we wake up from our nap. Xiaoyu, do you know how to kill crayfish?"

"Brother Fan, I know how!" Wu Lingyu answered with great enthusiasm. She really did know how, and she was very good at it.

For children who grow up in the countryside, by the age of six or seven, they should already know a lot of farm work and housework. Even if no one is home, they can pick some vegetables from the fields, fry an egg and cook a bowl of noodles at home, so they won't go hungry.

"Okay, let's take a one-hour nap, then get up at two o'clock to make something delicious!"

"Make something delicious!" (Xiao Ruanwen)

"Make it delicious!" (Lin Wan-ning)

"Gurgle, gurgle!" (Xu Qingfan)

"Gurgle, gurgle!" (Lin Wanning)

"Gurgle, gurgle~" (Wu Lingyu)

The inescapable "gurgling" sound has even influenced Xiaoyu, and who knows, maybe Ruanwen will follow suit one day...

"Gurgle, gurgle!!"

"???"

Xia Xiaoxiao looked at Xiao Ruanwen in disbelief.

"Hey Xiaoxiao, you should shout too! We need to fit in!"

"Don't shout." (Strongly opposed)

"Just say it!"

"Don't shout!" (Resistance)

"Little~ Little~"

Wan Ning wanted it, and Wan Ning got it!

"Goo goo ga ga, goo goo ga ga, okay now!" (Sighing helplessly)

"Yay!"
