When I opened my eyes, I went back to the night when I forced my husband to give birth to a son.

After waiting for a long time for Su Xiaowan's answer, Xiao Beiguo turned his head and saw her staring at him with her brows tightly furrowed.

He pursed his lips, and an indescribable feeling surged in his heart, and he just felt depressed.

So...didn't she ever think about growing old with him?

Thinking of how happy and confident she was when she was talking to Song Nancheng before, she felt inexplicably lost.

Judging from the current situation, with Song Nancheng's help, Su Xiaowan will soon be successful in business.

"Does it still hurt?"

Su Xiaowan came back to her senses and shook her head at him, "It doesn't hurt anymore. It's like this every time. It's very uncomfortable at first, but it will be fine after that period."

But in the past she had just endured it, but this time, Xiao Beiguo helped her massage it, and she didn't feel any pain at all.

"That's good. Do you want to sit in the yard for a while? I'll go cook."

Xiao Beiguo looked at Xixi who was having a lot of fun. The little girl didn't notice anything here at all.

"I'll do it, you go and keep Xixi company."

"You're feeling better now. Stop it. I'll do it. You can cook it tomorrow when you feel better."

Xiao Beiguo said as he took a chair and pulled her to sit in the shade, where they could watch the sunset and Xixi.

Su Xiaowan didn't force it. Although it didn't hurt, she always felt soft during her period.

Watching Xixi carrying earthworms from the bucket to feed the ducks, the ducks now weigh more than one kilogram.

These days, Old Man Xiao would go out and get some earthworms when he had nothing to do, and the grandfather and grandson were very careful in feeding the ducks.

Old man Xiao brought a glass of boiled water, walked to the sweaty Xixi and called out, "Ni, drink some water, don't be thirsty."

"Grandpa drinks too."

The little girl grinned and squinted her eyes as she pushed the cup of water towards Old Man Xiao.

"Grandpa drinks, Ni drinks, drink and then play."

There was a bit more kindness in Old Man Xiao's eyes, and his eyes were a little cloudy, but he couldn't hide his love for Xixi.

Watching the interaction between the grandfather and grandson, Su Xiaowan recalled the one in her past life that she remembered most clearly.

Xixi was already in her teens at that time, in the period of adolescence, the most rebellious period.

One time, she came home from school and asked me to get money, saying that the school required payment.

But she scolded the girl without giving any explanation and said a lot of unpleasant things.

The little girl was scolded and had a quarrel with her and ran away, not coming back until the evening.

But she didn't argue with her anymore, she even called her and admitted her mistake.

Su Xiaowan clearly remembered that she scolded the little girl again. The little girl did not argue with her, but just said, "Why does even grandpa know to care about whether I have eaten or not? You are my mother, I don't want you to care about me too much, but at the very least, shouldn't you worry about me a little bit?"

In her previous life, she only remembered that she scolded the little girl again and told her that her grandfather was so good, so she should follow him and let him take care of her.

Thinking about it now, Su Xiaowan felt extremely guilty. Old Man Xiao loved Xixi, no matter in the past life or this life, but his ability was limited and he was not very good at teaching others.

But he always tried his best to take good care of Xixi.

As Su Xiaowan watched, her eyes became red, until Xiao Beiguo's voice came.

"time to eat."

The family sat at the dinner table. Su Xiaowan looked at the food that was barely presentable, and her lips moved slightly.

Apart from whether it is cooked, she doesn't know whether it tastes good or not, but as long as someone else makes it and she can eat it, she won't be picky.

Xixi was probably very hungry. When she saw Old Man Xiao picking up his chopsticks, she hurriedly picked up a piece of meat and stuffed it into her mouth.

After taking a bite, the chubby little face wrinkled up immediately, "Mom, why is the meat so salty today? It's not fragrant and not delicious."

Xiao Beiguo took a bite and his face darkened. Not only did Xixi dislike it, but he himself also disliked it.

Not only was it not fragrant, the meat's aroma was also gone. He had clearly cooked it according to Su Xiaowan's usual cooking method, so how could it be so different?

Seeing that Su Xiaowan only picked up some beans and eggplants, he felt more and more annoyed.

"How about I cook it again?"

"I'll get it." Su Xiaowan originally wanted to eat it, but looking at the expressions of the three men, young and old, it was obvious that they couldn't eat anything.

But she lost her appetite after just one look at the white meat, as it was obviously not cooked well.

Xixi's eyes sparkled, "Mom, this isn't made by you, no wonder it tastes so bad."

"It was your father who did it. Your mother was not feeling well." Old Man Xiao explained quickly.

These days at home, he had gotten used to eating the food cooked by Su Xiaowan, and he simply couldn't swallow Xiao Beiguo's food.

It tastes terrible, even worse than what he cooked.

Su Xiaowan glanced at Xiao Beiguo, who was staring at her and smiling awkwardly, like a child who had done something wrong.

"Help me light the fire, I'll fix it, it shouldn't be a big problem."

Xiao Beiguo hummed and said to Xixi, "Dad will learn from your mom and it will definitely taste good next time."

"Dad, you'd better not learn from me. You definitely won't be able to learn Mom's craftsmanship." Xixi blinked her eyes and spoke very seriously.

In the kitchen, Xiao Beiguo heated the pot and watched Su Xiaowan rinse the meat again, drain it, and put it into the pot to stir-fry.

I couldn't help but ask, "What's the difference?" Doesn't he stir-fry it like this?

Su Xiaowan said with some amusement, "If you want the meat to be fragrant, you have to stir-fry it more, until the surface is a little golden, and then add some soy sauce for color."

"Just like that?" Watching Su Xiaowan skillfully fry the meat until it turned golden brown, pouring soy sauce and adding water, she then covered the pot.

This is the same as his method, except for stir-frying and using soy sauce, everything else is the same, so why is it... so unpalatable?

"For braised pork, stir-frying and adding ingredients are crucial. If these two are not done well, the meat will definitely not taste good."

Listening to the sizzling sound in the pot, Su Xiaowan opened the lid and the aroma of meat filled her nose, it was completely different.

Xiao Beiguo stared at the braised pork which was completely different from what he had made before and fell into deep thought.

At the dinner table, Xixi saw the braised pork and exclaimed, sniffing hard, as if she wanted to take in all the aroma.

Su Xiaowan was amused by her and put a piece in her bowl, "Eat it quickly."

The little girl took a bite and smiled until her eyes narrowed into a line. She said with satisfaction and joy, "Mom's cooking is delicious. I don't want Dad to cook it anymore. It's too disgusting. Even Grandpa won't eat it."

While they were cooking, Xixi secretly asked Old Man Xiao.

Old man Xiao lowered his head in embarrassment and didn't dare to say anything.

"Okay, don't let daddy make it from now on. Mommy will make it for you. Xixi will grow taller after eating it."

As long as Xixi likes it, it doesn’t matter if she works hard.

"That won't work!" Xiao Beiguo refused bluntly.

"Your mother has so many things to do every day. Sometimes she is very tired and exhausted."

Xixi pursed her lips, and suddenly felt that the meat in front of her was not delicious anymore, and looked at Xiao Beiguo eagerly.

"Then can Dad cook when Mom is not feeling well, but not the meat?" She thought it was such a waste.
