Quick wear: a good pregnancy, the treasure in the palm of an emperor's hand

Chapter 729 The sickly prince's beloved pet - rude and unreasonable 19

Not long after, the proprietress came over with a smile on her face, carrying four bowls of steaming wontons, and placed them carefully on the table one by one.

Every bowl of wontons is crystal clear, fragrant and mouth-watering.

The proprietress said enthusiastically: "Four guests, please enjoy your meal."

Liu Qingyin couldn't wait to pick up the spoon, scoop up a wonton and put it into her mouth.

The moment the delicious filling and the smooth dough blended in her mouth, an extremely happy smile immediately bloomed on her face.

"Mom, so this is what wontons taste like! They're so delicious!" She was as happy as a child.

Once upon a time, for Liu Qingyin, being able to taste such delicious wontons on the street was simply an unattainable dream.

The hardships of life made it a sin for her to even think of such luxuries.

However, at this moment, this little wish has come true. How can one not feel ecstatic?

Liu Huai'en was also immersed in the satisfaction brought by the delicious food.

He lowered his head and ate the wontons in big mouthfuls, while drinking the delicious and rich soup, as if he wanted to swallow all of this long-lost delicacy into his stomach.

All along, he could only watch others enjoy these delicacies, but he never dared to have the slightest hope.

Now I can finally taste the flavor of wontons myself.

Gu Jiuyue, who was sitting aside, was eating wontons silently, but his heart was filled with emotion.

When she tasted this familiar flavor again, those long-forgotten memories flooded into her heart like a tide, making her eyes slightly red.

She tried to lower her head, fearing that the three children around her would notice that something was wrong with her.

Because she didn't want the children to see her vulnerable side, and she didn't want to ruin this warm and beautiful moment.

Once, when her husband was still alive, the couple would secretly go to the wonton stall when they had free time on the street.

Even though they were just two people sharing a bowl of wontons, the unique taste was deeply imprinted in her memory and she still can't forget it.

If we were to ask who is the most heartless among these people, it would undoubtedly be Yun Youran.

The expression on her childish little face was as calm as lake water, without even the slightest ripple.

She moved extremely quickly and finished all the wontons in the bowl in the blink of an eye.

She gently put down the spoon in her hand, blinked her big watery eyes, and glanced at the other three people one by one, and asked:

"Are you all full? If not, do you want me to order another bowl for you?"

After hearing this, Liu Qingyin and Liu Huai'en, who were sitting nearby, shook their heads in unison and replied in unison: "No, we are already full."

The bowl in front of them was really too big. The two of them had already filled their stomachs. If they had one more portion, they might not be able to swallow any more.

After listening to the two's answers, Yun Youran turned his gaze to Gu Jiuyue who was sitting opposite him and continued to ask, "Mom, how about you? Are you full? Do you want another bowl?"

She looked innocent and carefree on the surface, but in fact, she had already noticed Gu Jiuyue's sadness.

However, she couldn't think of any good way to comfort her mother, so she had to let her adjust her mood slowly.

At this time, Gu Jiuyue, who had been somewhat sad, had completely returned to normal.

She slowly raised her head, met the concerned eyes of the three children, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealed an extremely gentle smile, and said with a hint of teasing:

"If you have another bowl, I'm afraid your mother's stomach will burst!

Do you really think I am the reincarnation of Taotie?"

Hearing Gu Jiuyue's witty and humorous words, Liu Qingyin, Liu Huai'en and Yun Youran all couldn't help laughing.

For a moment, a cheerful and warm atmosphere filled the space between the four of them.

After paying for the wontons, the four of them did not stay in the prosperous and bustling Xiangyang City any longer, but galloped non-stop towards Huaiyu Town.

Along the way, the breeze caressed their faces, bringing a hint of coolness.

After two long and tiring hours, they rode on a donkey cart and slowly returned to the familiar town.

At this time, the sun had already set, and like a ripe orange, it gradually disappeared behind the distant mountains.

The afterglow dyed the entire town a warm yellow.

They did not dare to delay for even a moment and quickly went to the carriage workshop, returned the rented donkey cart, and then hurriedly set out on their return journey towards Liujia Village.

When they arrived home, the night had already completely enveloped the earth. It was pitch black all around, with only a few weak oil lamps emitting a dim light.

As soon as they entered the house, before they could even catch their breath, Old Lady Liu, who was sitting in the main room, came to greet them.

I saw her triangular eyes squinting, with a mocking smile on her face, and she said in a sarcastic tone:

"Wow! You finally came back. You've been out for the whole day, and you're coming back empty-handed. Are you embarrassed?"

Hearing this, Yun Youran suddenly raised her head, and her beautiful eyes instantly became extremely sharp, like two cold rays shooting straight at Old Lady Liu.

Without hesitation, she shot back, "What's it to you? We can come back whenever we want."

What's wrong? Are you itching again? Do you want me to help you loosen up your muscles right now?"

Old Lady Liu was frightened by Yun Youran's intimidating look and words, but she still pretended to be calm and said with her neck stiff:

"Am I wrong? You guys were out for a whole day and didn't buy anything. Isn't that just a waste of time?"

Just when the atmosphere was so tense that it seemed to freeze, Gu Jiuyue, who had been silent all this time, suddenly took a small step forward, then raised his head and said in a soft but firm voice:

"Mother, have you forgotten? Every penny and every cent our family has worked so hard to earn has been handed over to you!"

At this point, Gu Jiuyue bit her lip lightly, and then continued: "We actually also want to buy some things back home to make our lives better.

However, you are so tight on money that we can't even take out a penny. We really don't have any extra money, so we can only do what we want but can't."

Hearing what Gu Jiuyue said, Old Lady Liu was stunned at first, then as if she remembered something, her face instantly became a little ugly.

She opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something in defense, but finally closed it, silently took a few steps back, and quietly hid behind Mr. Liu's slightly hunched body.

At this moment, Old Lady Liu was filled with anxiety and uneasiness, because she knew very well that Yun Youran's temper was not something that could be easily provoked.

If Yun Youran was really angry, he might start hitting someone without saying a word.

Thinking of this, Old Lady Liu couldn't help but shrink her neck and dared not even breathe.
