Xie Yi said casually, “How can you teach a child like that?”
Tianxin said, “Mom, do you think my dad is very protective of me? That’s because you didn’t see what the girl group looked like. If you did, you would want to teach them a lesson, just like I did.”
Xie Yi couldn’t help but laugh. She asked Ye Tianxin, “Does your hand hurt? If it does, I will take you to get some medicine.”
“It doesn’t hurt.” Ye Tianxin chuckled. She took Xie Yi’s arm and said warmly, “Mom, you don’t know whose apprentice I am, do you? I can take care of a few little girls.”
“You can’t be strong in everything.”
Xie Yi was helpless because she liked Ye Tianxin very much.
This was probably the so-called eyes-affinity in the legend.
Once their eyes-affinity matched, and everything the other party did was lovely.
“I know. My principle is that if you can fight, don’t be stupid.”
Xie Xuning, who protected his daughter very much, said, “The fists can teach people how to behave.”
While they were talking, the chronograph in the kitchen rang. Grandma said, “The steamed buns are ready.”
The chef helped to open the steamer. The steamer was full of big white steamed buns, which looked very cute.
Ye Tianxin couldn’t wait to have a hot steamed bun and took a big bite out of one.
The syrup mixed with sesame, peanuts, and osmanthus flew into Ye Tianxin’s mouth, and the sweetness reached Ye Tianxin’s heart.
“It’s so sweet… Sure enough, the best thing in this world is the bun made by Grandma.”
The bun was so hot that Ye Tianxin jumped, but she refused to spit out the buns in her mouth.
Xie Yi handed a bun to Xie Xuning with a smile and gently said to Ye Tianxin, “Tianxin, you shouldn’t eat hot food. It’s not good for your throat.”
“Mom, I know what you want to say is that eating too hot food can cause esophageal cancer, but the buns steamed from my grandma are so delicious.”
Xie Yi smiled helplessly.
Xie Xuning took a bun over and had a bite.
The stuffing he bit was red bean.
The red bean filling was so sweet that he thought Ye Linlang once steamed some buns and brought them to him.
There were sweet, glutinous, fragrant and soft red beans inside the buns.
Red beans grew in southern China, and a few branches grew in spring.
I need to pick some more; I’m missing her again…
“I am going out for a while.”
Xie Xuning took the bun and went to the study with slightly warm eyes.
He sat in the study and looking at Ye Linlang in a picture that was hung on the wall.
Some people would gradually be blurred in his memory as time went on, but she wasn’t one of those people.
No matter how quickly time passed, she would always be so vivid in his memory.
Those moments with her were engraved so deeply in his mind, and would never be erased.
Xie Xuning held the steamed buns in his hand and didn’t have another bite until it became slightly cold.
For Xie Xuning, only the food she personally cooked could be called world-class cuisine.
“Mr. Xie.”
Xie Yi stood at the door of the study and knocked on the door.
“May I come in?”
“Please come in,” Xie Xuning said to Xie, silently covering up all his feelings.
Xie Yi held a bowl of sweet red bean porridge in her hand.
“Mr. Xie, the old lady asked me to bring this porridge to you.”
Xie Yi’s eyes fell on the picture on the wall. The woman on the picture happened to be smiling at Xie Yi.
Her smile was so gentle and full of power.
She was like… a compassionate Bodhisattva.
