Dreaming of Lion Rock: Recipe in Hand

Old Man Li glanced at Old Man Chu with a smug look, and said to Chunni with a pleasant expression: "Ni'er, please help me pick up a package at the city train station this afternoon."

The eavesdropping Old Master Chu was unhappy and said bluntly: "You should have asked Yan Qing to get it. It would be more convenient for him to work in the county!"

Old man Li smiled so amiably and said in a nonchalant tone: "It's still my unfilial descendant. I don't know what he sent me, but he insisted that I pick it up as soon as I received the letter!"

Old Master Chu thought of his own children and grandchildren. Except for the New Year and other festivals, he never thought of sending him anything. Alas! He still didn't send enough.

But he would not let Old Man Li know that his descendants were unfilial! He said to Chunni: "Then you go and have a look. What if it is a seasonal fruit and it will rot in one day!"

Chunni...had to go to the county town again! She didn't expect the package to be so big, so big that it couldn't fit on her bicycle. She had no choice but to go to the hospital to ask her husband for help!

When the two men returned home with two large bags, the whole family including Chu Ci were stunned!

Old Master Chu muttered to himself, wondering how much fruit had this old man Li’s children and grandchildren sent him?

Old man Li had no idea what Old Master Chu was thinking, so he walked forward excitedly and unbuttoned his pockets.

"Clatter..." Packages of various sizes slid out of his pockets.

Chunni was well prepared and was not shocked at all. Well, actually, she had been shocked.

Old man Li laughed three times, "Hahahaha, hahahaha, hahahaha, those brats have finally grown up and know how to care for old men!" He picked up a bag and opened it. What caught his eye was a piece of paper with the words "Uncle Chu!" Obviously, this was for Old Master Chu. Old man Li reluctantly handed the bag to Old Master Chu, "Here, these brats give it to you!"

Thinking of so many packages, he became excited again and opened another one: "Chun Ni!"

Another one: "He Yanqing Collection"

He opened another one: "Aunt Chu receives it!"

Even the twins got gifts...

When it came to the last package, old man Li's face turned pale. He pretended to be strong and said, "These unfilial descendants actually bought gifts for everyone!" Of course, this was what he really thought. What he said was, "My son is thoughtful. He bought gifts for everyone!"

When Old Master Chu saw the big cloth bag in his hand and compared it with the last cloth bag in Old Man Li's hand, he felt that Old Man Li suddenly looked 20 years younger and no longer looked so hideous. Forget it, he still allowed Old Man Li to stay at home for a while longer!

Old man Li finally opened the last cloth bag. Inside was no longer a piece of paper, but a bulging envelope with the words: My dear father!

After seeing the thick stack of big unity bills inside, the sad face of old man Li suddenly turned bright, and he said to old master Chu smugly: "You little bastard, you still have some conscience! Bah, why send money? What if you lose it? There are so many pickpockets on the train! Besides, my monthly pension is more than the salary of an ordinary worker, and you are still worried that I don’t have enough to spend! You are really worrying too much..."

Old Master Chu rolled his eyes, not commenting on Old Man Li's hypocrisy, and told his children and grandchildren to go back to their rooms and open their presents!

It's so nice to open a free gift! Never mind, since Big Li is so thoughtful, Old Man Li can stay as long as he wants.

Since then, Old Man Li has taken root and grown in Lion Rock.
