Chapter 429 Sweet and Sour Jar

Zhang Ling watched the interaction between father and daughter.

Her next words were even sharper.

She even said that the father and daughter were united in isolating her as a mother.

Little do they know that such words are often the most hurtful to children.

After Xiaodouzi heard this, he bowed his head and became silent.

This is a common way for children to close themselves off when they feel extremely wronged.

Li Xiang originally wanted to wait for Zhang Ling to finish speaking.

Open your mouth again and say a few words for Xiaodouzi.

But now it is clear that we cannot wait any longer.

So Li Xiang reached out and patted Xiaodouzi's arm gently and said:

"Child, are you sad?"

Xiaodouzi raised his head and looked at Li Xiang with confusion and sadness in his eyes.

But there was no reaction to this.

Li Xiang's words were also a reminder to Zhang Ling.

That's why Zhang Ling realized and stopped talking to Li Xiang.

She turned to look at her little face, but was shocked by the negative emotions overflowing from her little eyes.

It seems that the words she just used did not take the child's feelings into consideration.

what to do?

She quickly thought of remedial measures in her mind.

Li Xiang saw Xiaodouzi and said nothing.

Zhang Ling also stopped talking endlessly.

So he tried to continue to guide and said:

"Xiaodouzi, don't be sad! Those words mom just said are enough to prove that mom loves us very deeply."

Xiaodouzi was so surprised by her father's weird explanation that she said "ah".

Also surprised was Zhang Ling.

But Zhang Ling's surprise lasted only for a moment.

Because Zhang Ling quickly understood what Li Xiang meant.

She wanted to stubbornly deny Li Xiang's statement in front of Xiaodouzi.

But he also realized what Li wanted to explain next.

Maybe it can be the key to Xiaodouzi's heart opening.

So she could only silently accept Li Xiang's statement.

And I am also looking forward to what Li Xiang will say next.

certainly!

Zhang Ling understood what Li Xiang meant.

But in her heart, she still wanted to hear Li Xiang's words with her own ears.

Li Xiang continued to explain:

"Xiaodouzi, think about it! If mother were a stranger who is not familiar with you, do you think mother would still say those words to us?"

Xiaodouzi touched his earlobe habitually and shook his head and said:

"Won't!"

Li Xiang then asked:

"Do you know why not?"

Xiaodouzi opened his mouth to try to explain.

Maybe the vocabulary available to Xiaodouzi at this age is not enough to express what he really means.

So Xiaodouzi is like a child who has just learned to speak.

Always repeating words such as "stranger" and "mom" back and forth.

Li Xiang saw Xiaodouzi's anxiety and waved his hand to signal Xiaodouzi not to say any more.

He went on to say:

"I know what you want to express, my child. Because only relatives like your parents in this world love you."

Li Xiang's words entered Xiaodouzi's heart.

So Xiaodouzi smiled and said "hmm" twice.

Li wanted to say:

"It is precisely because your relatives love you that they want to be responsible for you because of their love. At the same time, they are also willing to trust you."

Xiaodouzi looked at Zhang Ling uncertainly and said:

"Mom, is what dad said true?"

Zhang Ling once again wanted to stubbornly deny it.

But after glancing at Li Xiang hesitantly.

Then he decided to nod towards Xiaodouzi.

Li wanted to see Xiaodouzi focusing his attention on him again.

So he went on to say:

"It is precisely because I want to be responsible for you that I talk to you endlessly about my thoughts from time to time. Being willing to talk to you is a sign of trusting you."

Xiaodouzi saw her mother nodding subconsciously because of her father's words.

So I said "oh" like a sudden realization.

Li Xiang continued:

"That's why we, Xiaodouzi, were so unhappy just now. Is this because we don't want our mother to be responsible for you and trust you?"

How dare Xiaodouzi admit it?

The little head shakes like a rattle.

The little mouth kept saying words of denial.

But Xiaodouzi still felt that doing this was not enough.

So he rushed over and hugged Zhang Ling's thigh tightly and said:

"Mom, I'm sorry, Xiaodouzi is so unfilial! I just misunderstood that my mother doesn't love Xiaodouzi..."

Li Xiang watched the scene of mother and daughter embracing each other intimately.

A sweet smile appeared on his face.

right!

Li Xiang doesn't just care about Zhang Ling now.

But the focus is on their family of three.

Try to use your own way to strengthen family cohesion.

Because Li Xiang feels that the stronger their family cohesion is.

Then he and Zhang Ling can stay together for a long time without separation.

Li Xiang saw that mother and daughter could not be separated for a while.

So he took this opportunity and started to light a fire.

I saw him first breaking off a handful of branches as thick and long as chopsticks for later use.

Then he found a handful of dried yellow grass, lit it, and stuffed it into the stove inlet.

Then slowly put branches as thick as chopsticks on the fire lit by hay in small groups.

Remember: people need to be real, fire needs to be weak.

Don't be like a pile of firewood.

Pursue rules, smoothness and good-looking real codes.

Otherwise, if the flame is not strong enough, it is very likely that the newly started flame will be directly extinguished.

When more than one-third of the chopstick-thick branches have burned.

Next, you can stuff a branch that is thicker than your thumb into the stove inlet.

After five or six branches that are thicker than your thumb have been thrown in.

Then you can put a tree as thick as a child's arm into the stove inlet.

If possible, it can be cut into appropriate lengths.

It is said that a single tree cannot support itself, and the same is true for fire.

Generally, at least three pieces of wood will be stuffed into the feed inlet.

This ensures that the flame remains in a stable state for a long time.

Zhang Ling and Xiaodouzi were attracted by Li Xiang's skillful way of lighting the stove.

So they all stood aside and studied seriously.

When he saw Li Xiang throw five trees as thick as a child's arms into the stove, he stood up.

Zhang Ling picked up a bottle of water and poured it out to indicate to Li Xiang to wash his hands.

period!

Zhang Ling said with a bit of ridicule:

"I never expected it! The dignified new head of the Li family is so good at making fire. Did he learn it secretly from others?"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Li Xiang looked at Zhang Ling slightly stunned.

soon!

He put on a smile again and said:

"That's right! Zhang Ling, you are really amazing. Even I have learned from you and you know it."

Xiaodouzi asked in confusion:

"Dad, you have nothing to learn | Why make a fire? No way. You are a profound fortune teller. You will be able to use it today."

Xiaodouzi has such a rich imagination!

It's so natural to think of this statement.

However, this is not a bad step for Li Xiang.

Li Xiang nodded gratefully and looked at Zhang Ling and said:

"Xiaodouzi is right! I had already calculated that our family of three would go out for a picnic together today. That's why I learned these things in advance."

Zhang Ling asked with a suspicious smile:

"Really?"

She didn't want to believe in the occult science of fortune telling.

Fortune telling, in Zhang Ling's opinion, is just a variation and extension of sleight of hand and magic.

Mainly used for fun and entertainment.

Li Xianggang wanted to give Zhang Ling a serious affirmative answer.

Xiaodouzi's face showed a hint of admiration and she spoke to Li again:

"Dad, you are really great!"

After saying that, Xiaodouzi seemed to have thought of something more important.

So he quickly stepped forward and grabbed Li Xiang's hand.

His little eyes were full of endless expectations and he said:

"Speaking of which, I learned that dad is really so powerful."

Li Xiang pretended to be humble and waved his hand and said:

"It's just so so. Dad, it's not as powerful as Xiaodouzi thought."

Xiaodouzi said with a look of disbelief:

"I believe Dad. However, Xiaodouzi has been confused by a question. I wonder if Dad can give Xiaodouzi an answer?"

Li Xiang believed that this was an opportunity for Xiaodouzi to establish his dignity and show off his knowledge.

So he confidently signaled Xiaodouzi to continue asking.

After receiving permission, Xiaodouzi continued:

"That's why Xiaodouzi really wants to know if dad has calculated the future of our family of three?"

After saying that, Zhang Ling also looked at Li Xiang with expectant eyes and nodded.

Needless to say.

Zhang Ling is expressing that she is also looking forward to his answer.

Li Xiang suddenly felt a lot of pressure in his heart.

Because he knows it too.

It's not so much that Zhang Ling was expecting his answer.

Rather, she was expecting to hear his silence.

You must know that sometimes people do not have the courage to express their inner thoughts directly face to face.

That's why I express my inner thoughts through imaginary dreams.

Zhang Ling firmly believes that this is the case for Li Xiang.

Look at Li Xiang's serious face again.

Li Xiang's next expression was undoubtedly a promise.

In other words, it is also an expression of his attitude towards the future of their family of three.

Li Xiang said with slight hesitation:

"That, of course."

He thought this was an excellent opportunity to increase Zhang Ling's favor.

Definitely not to be missed easily.

Xiaodouzi said excitedly:

"Quickly, tell me quickly, Dad, tell me what the future will be like for our family of three?"

Li Xiang saw the water boiling in the iron pot on the stove.

He gave Xiaodouzi a look.

Indicated to wait first.

I saw him then put the hot pot base ingredients prepared in advance into boiling water to make soup.

After the water boils again, start adding various ingredients prepared by Zhang Ling.

This process is somewhat lengthy.

Xiaodouzi urged impatiently:

"Dad, please tell me quickly! Xiaodouzi really wants to know."

Li Xiang basically made up a story in this process.

So it's a bit like a leader's speech.

First, he reached out and gently rubbed Xiaodouzi's ears and smiled.

Then he looked at Zhang Ling's expectant eyes.

Then he opened his mouth and told Xiaodouzi a fairy tale.

The future is like this.

Dad, Mom's work is a bit bumpy.

But overall it went smoothly.

So our family of three doesn’t have to worry too much about money.

So our family of three has at least one picnic outing like today every year.

I thought about setting up a tent on the grass as a family.

daytime.

We spread out a nice checkered mat on the grass and ate the prepared meal.

There will be some edible wild vegetables in the meal.

For example, bitter herbs, plantain, etc.

You can also eat some fruit after eating.

Then, under the blue sky and white clouds, with the wind mixed with the strong smell of grass blowing, we got on our horses and walked on the grassland chatting.

rise.

You can gallop your horse on the grassland to your heart's content.

The horse is tired from riding.

After dismounting, you can play games such as eagle catching chicks together.

night.

We light a small lamp in the tent.

A family of three sat at the window of the tent and looked at the starry sky outside.

at this time.

Our family of three tells each other interesting things in our lives.

The tent was filled with laughter and laughter.

It's time to go to bed.

Xiaodouzi had to drag her father or mother to tell them traditional virtue stories.

Otherwise, you little guy still refuses to sleep.

Speaking of which.

Li Xiang's words seemed to have penetrated into Xiaodouzi's heart.

That's why I kept smiling sheepishly.

Where is Zhang Ling?

He seems to be quite obsessed with living like this.

Her face was filled with a yearning smile.

Li Xiang continued talking.

A small home for a family of three doesn’t have to be big!

But there must be a small balcony at home.

Because I see Xiaodouzi that you especially like to plant flowers.

So we will open up an exclusive space for you on the balcony.

Let the little beans grow various small flowers.

Like geraniums, roses, clematis, etc.

If conditions permit, place another small table on the balcony.

There are textbooks and homework on the table.

I'm sure Xiaodouzi, your academic performance will improve a lot by then.

After hearing this, Xiaodouzi jumped directly into Li Xiang's arms.

Happy shouting:

"Dad, you are so good to me!"

Zhang Ling was even more impressed with Li Xiang because of this.

Because she never noticed that Xiaodouzi liked to plant flowers.

Li Xiang's expression was not interrupted.

He went on to say that the dining table purchased by a small family of three must be made of wood.

I believe Zhang Ling will definitely put a cloth tablecloth on it.

Sometimes, he would buy Zhang Ling a bouquet of flowers when she was in a bad mood.

Then Zhang Ling inserted it into a beautiful vase and placed it on the dining table.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! That is the unique mood of life when our family of three eats.

When Li wanted to say this.

Zhang Ling pretended to be unhappy and asked:

"Hey, why does it have to be when I'm in a bad mood? It's impossible for you, Li Xiang, to be in a good mood every day."

Li Xiang smiled and said to Zhang Ling:

"That's true. But, at this point, I want to ask you, will you send me flowers when I'm in a bad mood?"

Xiaodouzi said with a smile at this time:

"Give it, give it, mom, you will definitely give it."

Zhang Ling lowered her head slightly in embarrassment because of Xiaodouzi's words.

But he quickly raised his head and looked at Li with a bit of stubbornness and wanted to say:

"You, a grown man, have the nerve to let me, a woman, send you flowers? If you are so kind, I will."

Li Xiang continued to smile and said:

"Accept! The child's father will naturally accept the flowers sent by the child's mother. Otherwise, he would be sorry for Xiaodouzi."

Zhang Ling and Xiaodouzi interpreted in unison:

"What does this have to do with Xiaodouzi (me)?"

Li Xiang looked back and forth between mother and daughter.

In the end, he smiled slightly and didn't answer a word.

Even though Xiaodouzi asked Li Xiang again after getting to the bottom of it.

Li Xiang just took the lead in picking up the bowl and chopsticks, picked up a piece of mutton roll from the boiling pot, took a careful taste and said:

"Well, it tastes good!"

Xiaodouzi looked at Li Xiang and felt like his mouth was about to drool and asked:

"Dad, are you ready?"

Xiaodouzi always remembers that food must be cooked before eating.

Otherwise, you will definitely have diarrhea after eating it.

Li Xiang took another piece of mutton roll from the pot, placed it in front of Xiaodouzi, nodded and said with a smile:

"It's cooked and ready to eat. Do you want dad to feed you a bite?"

Xiaodouzi ate raw mutton when he was a child.

I was so stunned that I vomited myself.

From then on I no longer like eating mutton.

So the little eyes staring at the mutton exuded strong disgust.

Then the little head shook and said "no".

Then he stretched out his little hand towards Zhang Ling and said:

"Mom, give me a pair of bowls and chopsticks! The little beans have grown up. You have to eat them by yourself. You don't want dad to feed you."

Xiaodouzi's reaction made Li Xiang feel a little embarrassed.

Zhang Ling looked at Li Xiang's humbled appearance in front of her children.

I couldn't help but laugh!

Zhang Ling's laughter is so clear and pleasant.

Listening to this, Li Xiang felt as if he had been soaked in a jar of sweet and sour.

The whole body, including the bones, feels soft and sweet.
