Su Bing started clearing the table and wiping it down. He didn’t want their stepmother to come back and find a messy table.
He could tell their stepmother was a neat person. Since her arrival, the house not only became spotless, but it also smelled delightful everywhere. Even the scent of osmanthus permeated from the dandelion in the courtyard.
Su Li nodded and opened his school bag. Suddenly, his nose twitched, and he informed Su Bing, “Our stepmother must have made us something delicious. There’s a unique aroma of meat!”
The two brothers entered the dining room, unveiling the mosquito net covering the dishes. The sauce-red color and tantalizing aroma pleased their senses.
Beside the plates lay a note, written in elegant handwriting.
“This dish is called Squirrel-shaped Sweet and Sour Mandarin Fish, made from mandarin fish! Hope you enjoy your meal!”
Following the dish’s name were the reheating instructions and some notes, meticulous in detail.
With bright eyes, Su Li exclaimed, “It really looks like a squirrel! Big brother, our stepmother is so lovely!”
Su Bing didn’t say anything, but his expression confirmed Su Li’s words. He replaced the mosquito net over the dish.
When the sky was about to turn dark, Su Bing steamed rice and reheated the Squirrel-shaped Sweet and Sour Mandarin Fish according to the note. He also stir-fried some vegetables, preparing dinner for himself and his brother.
At that moment, Su Shen returned from outside. Seeing the beautifully prepared dish, he felt a sense of pride; his wife truly was remarkable.
It wasn’t just Su Li’s words; it reflected Su Bing’s thoughts and even Su Shen’s intentions.
This statement was more like an agreement among the Su family men, a manifestation of responsibility!
Su Shen stood up, patting the shoulders of his two sons reassuringly. “As your stepmother said, take care of yourselves first, nourish your bodies, eat when you should, got it?”
Both brothers nodded quickly. But Su Li remembered something and said, “But
Dad, why does stepmother say you also need to take care of yourself?”
Su Li thought their stepmother was exaggerating. His dad was tall and robust; where would he need to take care of himself?
With that said, the room fell silent, filled with an awkward atmosphere. Su Shen rubbed his forehead, spoke softly, “Go to bed early. Goodnight!”
The woman always thought he wasn’t capable, hence she wanted to take care of him, but he couldn’t explain that to the children.
Su Bing didn’t quite understand the situation either, but he wasn’t interested in figuring it out. He advised Su Li, “Don’t be so curious. If you don’t understand something, keep quiet.”
Su Li felt a bit aggrieved but replied, “Okay,” though he was still puzzled: What did Dad need to take care of?
In Little Lin Village, at the Lin family’s house.
After finishing their meal, the family sat in front of the house, enjoying the cool evening.
People from the neighborhood gathered when they heard that the Lin family’s daughter had returned, marveling, “Gu Zi is truly beautiful.. No wonder Boss Su is rushing to marry her!”
