Chapter 820: Chapter 0820: Letter from Tianjun 3

It’s quite awkward to get caught speaking ill of someone, just like Little Baldy who got slapped because of it.

Of course, Lu Jiang’s slap was very light.

No matter how light it was, a slap is not a caress, it instantly angered Xibao, who jumped up on the spot, quickly spun around, and, seeing it was Lu Jiang, immediately charged at Ye Zhengjun, "Big baddie Daddy, Grandpa, hit him quickly!"

If there were any hair on his head, it would have stood on end in anger.

"Grandpa is old, I can’t beat your daddy," Ye Zhengjun said with a smile.

Xibao went "Ah," biting her finger, her big eyes whirling around, contemplating some cunning plan.

Fubao was nothing like her brother, as she sweetly beamed at Lu Jiang with a smile, cheerfully calling out, "Daddy! Daddy!"

"Ah, my darling daughter!" Lu Jiang put the hat he was holding onto his head and scooped up his daughter into his arms, taking a good look at her and immediately felt a pang of distress, "Darling daughter, how come you’ve lost so much weight?"

Fubao touched his stubble and giggled.

Feng Qingxue said with annoyance, "She eats so little every day, it would be strange if she gained weight, what she eats in a week doesn’t add up to what Xibao eats in a day." That’s why Xibao has never lost weight.

"Darling daughter, you can’t skip meals, come on, Daddy will go home and make you some fish puree."

"Where did you get the fish?" Feng Qingxue asked.

Lu Jiang replied with a smile, "Tibetans may not eat fish, but that doesn’t mean the plateau lacks lakes or fish."

He had someone bring a few fish that were kept alive in a bucket, and when he turned around, the two children were already peering into the bucket, laughing and pointing at the fish swimming to and fro, Xibao told Fubao cheerfully, "Look, fish, there are fish!"

Fubao looked delighted and tried reaching into the bucket, but her arms were too short to touch the surface of the water halfway up the bucket.

Xibao looked around and, finding Feng Qingxue’s rolling pin, handed it to her. The two children lay on the edge of the bucket, watching Fubao stir the water with the rolling pin, causing the frightened fish to dart and leap around.

When Lu Jiang took a fish out of the bucket to prepare it for cooking, Fubao burst into tears with a loud "Wah," sitting on the ground and pointing at the fish in his hand.

"You better put it back, your little girl won’t let you kill it!" Feng Qingxue said.

Lu Jiang said helplessly, "I still need to make dinner for them."

Feng Qingxue shot him a look, and with her back to the children, she took out a fish from her space—it was already slaughtered but still very fresh. Working together, the couple made a small bowl of fish puree for Fubao and a large bowl of fish dumplings for Xibao.

In the end, Fubao only ate a few bites before she refused to eat any more, but Xibao cleaned out the dumplings completely.

"So full!" Xibao patted her protruding belly, her face beaming with satisfaction.

Lu Jiang looked at the remaining fish puree, quite worried. "If Fubao refuses to eat, how skinny is she going to get?"

In fact, compared to other children, Fubao’s face was round, and her body had an even distribution of flesh; she was not skinny at all. But the comparison was unfair; she was much thinner than Xibao had been at one year old.

After that, Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue got creative with cooking for the children, brainstorming what to make whenever they had free time.

As a result, Fubao’s condition remained stable, and she didn’t lose any more weight, but Xibao’s figure became rounder, eating happily every day, her appetite almost matching Feng Qingxue’s.

This couldn’t go on, Feng Qingxue quickly asked Lu Jiang to take Xibao out for exercise.

Xibao liked to play, and following Lu Jiang every day for runs and horse riding, she fortunately didn’t continue to gain weight but grew taller instead.
