Chapter 59: Chapter 59 Full and Bloated Chapter 59: Chapter 59 Full and Bloated However, they made Da Bao and Xiao Bao so upset that both came back crying.
Yun Xiaoxiao looked at Sanya and Xiao Mao, wanting to know what exactly had happened.
How come they went out to play and came back crying?
“Little Aunt, they all say you are very fierce, and that Wang Laowu is in prison.”
Yun Xiaoxiao thought it was something else?
“Alright, no more crying, no more crying. We shouldn’t cry over other people’s issues—it’s not worth it. If you do something wrong, you have to face the consequences. If Wang Laowu hadn’t come to our house to steal, would he be in prison?”
Yun Xiaoxiao gently patted their heads and spoke softly, “Da Bao and Xiao Bao, aren’t you little men?”
The two brothers stopped crying and firmly patted their chests, saying, “We are.”
“So little men shouldn’t cry often.”
After cheering them up, Yun Xiaoxiao prepared some powdered milk for the four of them to drink.
Everyone happily drank it.
“How about we have sweet potato buns for lunch?”
Da Bao and Xiao Bao had no objections; as long as they could fill their bellies, that was enough.
They didn’t start ordering dishes just because they had been eating well the past few days and mom was easy to talk to.
“Little Aunt, can I have sweet potato buns?”
They didn’t even want sweet potato porridge anymore.
“Of course, you can.”
“Then let’s eat earlier.”
They had breakfast at seven and planned to have lunch a bit earlier.
Yun Xiaoxiao washed the sweet potatoes, sliced them, steamed them, then mashed them and added flour. If they weren’t sweet enough, she could also add some sugar, fry them with oil, or even make sweet potato balls or sweet potato steamed cake.
Yun Xiaoxiao could make this; it was one of her dad’s specialties. She heard Ms. Fan had craved it when she was pregnant with her, and her dad had learned to make it then.
Steam some more sweet potatoes.
When the first batch of sweet potato pancakes was done, the children could smell the sweet aroma.
“Wait for it to cool a bit before eating…”
Once all the sweet potato pancakes were finished, Yun Xiaoxiao went back to her room to get some yeast, mashed the remaining sweet potatoes—which had cooled down quite a bit and were still warm—added flour, milk, and yeast. The sweet potato pancakes had already been taken to the living room, and there were no children in the kitchen, so she didn’t have to hide.
The mixture needed to ferment naturally for more than half an hour.
The little ones hadn’t eaten yet and were waiting for Yun Xiaoxiao to join them.
“Let me make you some more powdered milk…”
Eating sweet potato pancakes and drinking powdered milk was delightful.
The sweet potato pancakes were sweet, and so was the powdered milk; naturally, sweet things are favorites among children.
Once they were full, Sanya took Xiao Mao and bade farewell to Yun Xiaoxiao to go home.
When the siblings arrived home, the sweet aroma from the sweet potato and the scent of powdered milk still lingered on them.
“What did your Little Aunt make for you?” Mrs. Zhao was cooking sweet potato porridge and asked when the kids came back.
“Sweet potato pancakes and powdered milk,” Sanya immediately said, not hiding anything from Mrs. Zhao.
This led to another matter.
“Grandma, everyone is saying outside that Little Aunt is fierce, that Little Aunt is ruthless, and that she sent Wang Laowu away for a year.”
Who is spreading that?
How could they forget that Wang Laowu was the one stealing first? It served him right to end up .
What, does the collective have such a thief and the members plan to shield him?
It must be those old women spreading this.
Do these people have nothing better to do, full from eating too much?
Why spread such rumors?
When their stuff got stolen, did they have the guts not to go around cursing?
