Chapter 355: 355 Damn human competitiveness!

Lin Tang clutched her forehead in pain.

At the same time, she took a few steps back.

She was two meters away from Tang Kairui.

"Tang Xiaorui, you’re so heartless!"

Seeing the pained expression on her face, Tang Kairui’s lips curled slightly upward at the sight of her youthful and pretty young girl’s appearance.

In Lin Tang’s view, it was the gloating expression of a villain.

"Tang Xiaorui, you’re still laughing!!"

Li Xiuli came out of the kitchen and saw the boy and girl, one causing trouble and the other laughing, and she couldn’t help but smile as well.

She thought to herself that her daughter was still an immature young girl.

As for Tangtang and that Comrade Gu, perhaps she was too nervous about her daughter and had seen it wrong.

Just like now, she thought Kairui and Tangtang looked like they were dating.

It seemed her old eyes were really getting blurry!

Scolding herself inwardly, Li Xiuli called Lin Tang and Tang Kairui to eat.

"Tangtang, the food is ready, stop causing trouble." Saying this, she looked at Tang Kairui affectionately, "Kairui, make yourself at home, don’t be polite. You and Tangtang go wash your hands first, and we’ll start eating right away."

Lin Tang had a look of utter dejection, "..." Who was the one causing trouble?!

Tang Kairui couldn’t help but laugh out loud when he caught a glimpse of the fleeting small expression on Lin Tang’s face.

His rare little canine tooth showed up in his mouth.

Lin Tang saw it, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

"Eh? Tang Xiaorui, you actually have little canine teeth..."

Tang Kairui immediately restrained his smile and returned to his usual appearance where he never showed his teeth when smiling.

"You saw it wrong," he denied.

Lin Tang found his stubbornness so funny that she was about to die laughing.

"Okay then, if you say you don’t have them, you don’t have them!"

Seeing the smile on her face, Tang Kairui knew she was humoring him.

He felt utterly helpless for a moment.

Yet the corners of his mouth sneakily rose.

Li Xiuli, with her two daughters-in-law, set the table as Goudan and the other three returned home.

Everyone washed their hands and sat down at the dining table.

The table and chairs, built by Lin Lu, were simple and clean, pleasing to the eye.

Lin Tang sat with Tang Kairui across from her, sandwiched between Choudan and Niuniu.

The rest sat close to each other.

On the table was a dish of Pickled Vegetable Fish, a bright red fragrant tofu dish, a pork rib soup, and a smashed cucumber dish.

The rice was steamed dry.

Not plain rice, but mixed with grains.

Li Xiuli enthusiastically served Tang Kairui a pair of chopsticks full of food, saying, "Kairui, don’t be shy, treat this like your own home. Feel free to take whatever you like to eat."

Lin Lu also said, "Your Aunt Li is right, don’t be polite, go ahead and eat."

Tang Kairui responded openly.

After a taste, he sweetly said, "Thank you! Aunt Li, your cooking is really good, much better than my mom’s."

That was a hundred percent true.

His mom’s cooking skills were atrociously bad, the kind even dogs would despise.

Thus, in their home, his dad did the cooking.

He had also learned to cook quite well.

Thinking that someday...he would cook for someone special.

Li Xiuli beamed with joy, her face full of smiles, "If you like it, eat more."

When Lin Tang heard her mother’s words, she nearly spit out a mouthful of pork rib soup.

The slogan of a certain bread commercial started looping crazily in her head.

"Cough cough..."

Choudan, upon hearing his little aunt’s cough, stopped sipping milk powder from the Enamel Jar.

His lips were ringed with a little milk stain.

His clear, large eyes looked at his little aunt with concern.

Lin Tang suppressed her cough and petted Choudan’s soft short fur.

"It’s nothing, you keep eating your meal."

Choudan smiled softly, put down the Enamel Jar, and started to eat his Egg Custard with his little spoon.

His eyes curved with each bite, his little expressions endearingly sweet.

Tang Kairui couldn’t handle spicy food very well, and he picked up a chopstick full of what looked to be non-spicy Pickled Vegetable Fish.

Who knew.

The moment he took a bite, his brain buzzed, and it felt like a train whistle was blowing above his head.

He almost lit up on fire!!

In his desperation, he grabbed a cup from the table without thinking.

He brought it up and gulped it down.

After gulping down several mouthfuls, he realized— he might, perhaps, possibly have taken the wrong cup.

Choudan was stunned, and then exploded.

This milk powder was specifically instructed by the Little Aunt to be given only to the few children, to help them grow taller. No one else had any.

This bad brother ate their meat and even snatched their milk to drink.

"Little Aunt, Little Aunt, he stole my milk waaaah..." Choudan cried out, raising his head.

Lin Tang was caught between laughter and tears, busily comforting the child.

"Your Brother Tang didn’t do it on purpose, he just drank it because the spice got to him, don’t cry, don’t cry, I will mix more for you."

Choudan threw himself into Lin Tang’s arms, his chubby little fingers wiping away his tears.

His wet eyes looked up at Lin Tang.

"...After dinner."

His sensibility was heart-meltingly sweet.

Goudan, seeing his little brother crying, quickly swallowed the meat in his mouth.

He shot Tang Kairui an annoyed, frowning look.

Moved his own cup in front of his little brother.

"What are you crying for, have mine."

Choudan’s tears turned to laughter, revealing a mouthful of shiny little teeth.

"Thank you, Brother, when Little Aunt makes more later, I’ll give mine to you."

Goudan, imitating grown-ups, waved his hand dismissively.

"No need, I’m good with just the meat."

For him, having meat was enough!

Lin Tang complimented, "Goudan, you are such a good brother."

After saying that, she saw Choudan staring at her with hopeful eyes.

She affectionately pinched the little guy’s soft, smooth cheek rarest of rare.

"...Choudan is a good little brother, too."

Sheesh, this damned competitive spirit applies to every age group.

Tang Kairui, seeing that he had made a child cry, blushed with embarrassment.

He coughed and said, "I’m sorry, I can’t really handle spicy food."

Lin Lu poured a glass of water and handed it over.

"There’s nothing to be sorry about, I also can’t handle too much spice.

Tangtang here wanted the Pickled Vegetable Fish.

She likes strong flavors, so you can just eat something else, everything else isn’t spicy."

Tangtang indeed had her mother put plenty of dry chili peppers in it, making it quite pungent.

Tang Kairui took the water, his face still red, and took a sip, "...Thank you, Uncle Lin."

Then he looked at Choudan and cajoled softly, "Choudan, it was my fault, how about I make it up to you with some candy after dinner?"

Choudan was a generous child.

Hearing Little Aunt would make more milk later, and seeing Goudan offering his milk, he was no longer upset.

His voice was soft as he said, "No! My mom said not to take candy from others."

Tang Kairui’s usually failproof method of placating children was rebuffed, and he was taken aback.

Why won’t anyone act according to common sense?

Li Xiuli, concerned Tang Kairui might feel uneasy, said with a smile, "Brother Kairui is a familiar person, you can accept the candy he gives."

Then turning to Tang Kairui, "Kairui, don’t give too much, just one piece will do, otherwise it’ll ruin the teeth."

And also to avoid unnecessary expense!

Choudan nodded his little head and hummed in agreement, "Okay then, I’ll take it."

After dinner, Tang Kairui very perceptively began to clear up the bowls and dishes.

Li Xiuli hurried to stop him.

"Hey, no need for you to busy yourself, we have plenty of people here."

And then she said to Lin Tang, "Tangtang, go see Kairui off, and take a walk outside while you’re at it, don’t just stay inside all day."

Spending the whole day cooped up at home, one’s bones might just rust.
