午夜的女人

“Hurry up and prepare breakfast.”Li Menting ordered.

“Madam, Second Young Madam is making handmade noodles inside. It will be ready in a while.”Aunt Hui said with a smile.

“Ruowan?” Li Menting was a little surprised and followed Auntie Hui into the kitchen.

In the kitchen, a large chopping board was filled with hand-rolled thin noodles, and Su Ruowan was wearing an apron and standing in front of the stove, making the noodles.

Li Menting walked over to take a look and was very satisfied. However, she said,” Ruowan, you should have a good rest on the weekend. Why did you wake up so early and make so many noodles? You must have worked hard, right?” Are you tired?”

Su Ruowan kept stir-frying the vegetables in the pot with a spatula and said with a smile,” I’m not tired, Mom. I have Aunt Hui to help me.””

“Hey, how am I helping? I’m just helping out.”Aunt Hui quickly waved her hand and said.

Li Menting nodded her head and looked at Su Ruowan who was working nimbly with a smile in her eyes.

An hour later, Grandpa Jing and Jing Shaofan were chatting as they came back from their morning exercise. Grandpa Jing sniffed the air as soon as he entered the living room and shouted loudly,” What did you have for breakfast today? It smells so good!””

“Dad, this is the handmade noodles that my granddaughter-in-law specially made for you. Come and try it.”Li Menting said with a smile.

At the dining table, Jing Yan and Jiujiu were eating noodles. When Su Ruowan saw the two elders, she stood up and said,” Grandpa, Dad, wait a moment. I’ll go make two bowls of noodles for you now.””

She put down the bowl of noodles and walked towards the kitchen.

Grandpa Jing and Jing Shaofan washed their hands and walked to the dining table. They heard Li Menting say,” Sigh, I didn’t expect to finally have the chance to eat breakfast made by my daughter-in-law in my lifetime.””

Li Muchen, who was sitting opposite her, raised his head to look at her. His eyes moved but he did not say anything. He continued to eat his noodles with his head lowered.

“Where’s Ah Xuan? How is she today?”Jing Shaofan sat beside Li Menting and asked.

“Sigh, Ah Xuan was making a scene for most of the night last night, and she didn’t really sleep at night. When I woke up just now, she was still sleeping, so I didn’t bother about her.”Li Menting said.

“Yes.” Jing Shaofan nodded and looked at the large plate of braised noodles in front of him.” Did Ruowan prepare all these?””

“Isn’t that so? Ruowan said that she couldn’t eat too greasy food in the morning. Moreover, her grandfather had high blood pressure, so she put some prawns in. The rest of the dishes were fungus, mushrooms, and other vegetables. She also didn’t dare to put too much oil. However, the taste was indeed very good. It tasted especially fragrant, right, Yanyan?”

“Grandma, Wanwan’s noodles are the best! I want to eat two bowls today!” Jing Yanxi ate until her mouth was bulging and she didn’t forget to help Su Ruowan get votes.

“Hahaha!” Everyone at the table was amused by Jing Yanxi.

At this moment, Su Ruowan came out with two bowls of noodles.” Grandpa, Dad, the noodles are here.””

Grandpa Jing picked up his chopsticks and praised him as he ate. Jing Shaofan nodded and even added half a bowl of noodles to each bowl.

After the meal, everyone left the table. Li Muchen sat on the sofa reading the morning newspaper while Jing Yanxi went out to play with his round belly. Only then did Jing Muchen come down from upstairs and stand casually at the dining table.

When the little girl saw her father, she looked up and shouted,” Daddy! Let’s eat breakfast!”
