For Xu Nianhua, the days are very bland. Ji Ying puts a lot of effort every day into making various blood-nourishing soups for her; anything that nourishes the blood, Ji Ying brings home.
Xu Nianhua pinched her waist silently, always feeling like she’s going to gain a bit of weight.
She couldn’t refuse her mother’s good intentions, but why was Pei Yicheng also sending her all kinds of nutritional supplements?
She wasn’t seventy or eighty years old; why did she need these supplements all the time?
"Sweetheart, this was specially bought for you. Try it. These goji berries were specially acquired through someone. You can eat them as a snack or make tea." Pei Yicheng presented the goji berries like a treasure; Grandfather said they were very nourishing.
She didn’t feel like eating these now; she wanted to eat popsicles, wanted to eat cold mung bean jelly. Now she finally understood the pain Pei Yining felt due to her period, frequently enduring not being able to eat popsicles.
"By the way, I also bought this this time."
Pei Yicheng took out another box and said, "This square brown sugar is made especially well. You can eat it as a snack or dissolve it in water for drinking."
Xu Nianhua silently glanced at him, pursed her lips and said nothing.
"Next year, I’ll buy you popsicles, the kind you love." Pei Yicheng looked at her with a little resentful gaze, knowing she wanted to eat popsicles. This little resentful gaze, in his eyes, looked cute.
"Next year, that’s three hundred and sixty-five days." Xu Nianhua counted on her fingers; the more she couldn’t have something, the more she thought of it and wanted it, the more delicious it seemed.
"No, it’s three hundred and thirty days."
Pei Yicheng corrected her, "You can have them before the summer vacation." Get full chapters from 𝗻𝗼𝘷𝗲𝗹•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝕟𝕖𝕥
Three hundred and sixty-five days and three hundred and thirty days didn’t make much difference now; it would still be a long time before she could eat them.
"Brother Cheng, how about sneaking in one?" Xu Nianhua held up a finger, looking at him eagerly, "I’m just getting a blood transfusion, not sick, my mom’s stingy not letting me eat, but Brother Cheng, you wouldn’t be stingy, right?"
Her bright eyes blinked at him.
For a moment, Pei Yicheng couldn’t find a single word to refuse. Conveniently, just then, the sound of a popsicle vendor came from outside, and Pei Yicheng impulsively bought one. Just at that moment, Ji Ying and sister-in-law Zhou He had gone to the factory, leaving just the two of them at home.
"Brother Cheng, you’re the best!"
Xu Nianhua looked at the old popsicle, couldn’t help but swallow her saliva; she felt she hadn’t had an old popsicle in ages, the sweet taste was particularly delicious!
Just when Xu Nianhua was about to take it, Pei Yicheng raised the old popsicle high and said, "Look at it, smell the fragrance, just pretend you’ve eaten it."
Xu Nianhua looked at him incredulously and asked, "So, you went to buy it just so I could look at it?"
"Uh-huh, otherwise what? I eat it, and you watch?" Pei Yicheng peeled the wrapper from the popsicle, the white old popsicle emitting a sweet fragrance, smelling of milk, and still giving off cold air in this scorching summer.
"Brother Cheng, you’re not kidding, right?"
Xu Nianhua felt she was rash in her anticipation just now; she looked at Pei Yicheng, crying and laughing, feeling that buying a popsicle just to have it at home was something only a three-year-old would do.
No, a three-year-old would definitely eat the popsicle until it’s gone.
The two of them watching the popsicle melt seemed so silly.
