Chang Maoming watched the children play on the rafters. When he saw that everyone was tired, he quietly left.

He had already ordered a pot of soup to be cooked in the small kitchen.

It is stewed with pork ribs using several medicinal materials and some ingredients with the same origin as medicine and food. It looks like a delicious soup on the surface, but it actually has a variety of conditioning effects on the body.

Cao Yingying ran back to the yard of the second room huffing and puffing, and smelled a scent as soon as she entered the yard.

"Mama Zhang, what's stewed in the pot?" Cao Yingying sniffed hard.

Zhang Ma had already received instructions from the second master, Chang Mao, and deliberately said that the soup was for the second master and his wife.

Cao Yingying flinched when she heard Zhang's mother talking about the second master, her uncle Chang Maoming.

With Mrs. Cao protecting her in the second room, she was not afraid of anything. But as soon as her uncle glared at her, her legs suddenly became weak. Usually when she saw Chang Maoming's shadow, she wanted to walk around.

She wanted to give up, but the smell was so delicious that Cao Yingying couldn't bear to leave.

Finally, she tugged on Zhang Ma's sleeves and said, "Give it to me. I'll send it to my aunt."

"Oh, Miss Yingying is really sensible and knows how to be filial to the Second Madam." Zhang Ma pretended to be surprised, "Let the maid carry it to Miss Yingying?"

"No, no need." Cao Yingying waved her hands quickly, "I can handle it!"

Carrying this bowl of soup, Cao Yingying went straight to Cao's courtyard.

It's not that she is really filial, but she knows that Mr. Cao loves her too much. As long as there is good food and drink, it must be close to her.

Sure enough, when the cup of soup was brought over, Ms. Cao was so moved that she shed tears. While praising Yingying for being sensible, she pushed the soup in front of her and let her drink it.

Cao Yingying was stunned for a moment. Although everything in front of her was as she imagined, her aunt's unhesitating push to her still made her feel some different emotions.

"Yingying, why don't you eat?" Ms. Cao urged.

Cao Yingying responded, then lowered her head and started eating.

While drinking soup, Ms. Cao also asked her where she had been during the past half day. When she heard that she was making a bet with Long Baoer and playing sandbags with the Xue brothers, Ms. Cao wanted to say something but shut up.

Although she disliked Long Baoer very much, she was not happy that Long Baoer actually looked down on Cao Yingying for being able to play.

But as long as her niece can exercise, she feels the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

Cao Yingying was very satisfied with this cup of soup.

There are yams, carrots and a lot of ribs in the bowl. The ribs have been stewed until they fall off the bones. If you bite into the meat and pull it gently, the bones will come off.

As for the herbs that don't have a strong taste, they are fished out before they are served.

After eating a cup of soup, Cao Yingying was still unsatisfied, but she was almost full.

Mrs. Cao wiped her mouth and said, "Eat this bowl first, and dinner will be in a while."

Yingying nodded.

Because she had been playing all afternoon, Yingying had eaten her fill of pork rib soup, snuggled up on the chair next to her, and fell asleep in a short time.

"I'm afraid this child is too tired from playing!" Mrs. Cao quickly called the strongest rough lady in the yard and carried Cao Yingying to her room.

Cao Yingying didn't take much time to sleep. She woke up not long after dinner.

In the evening, the Chang family and the Xue family had dinner together. The old lady did not eat in the evening, but she would go over to have a look. She was happy to see her children and grandchildren eating.

Mrs. Cao didn't want to wake up because Cao Yingying was asleep, so she asked the small kitchen to prepare some food. Although it was not as good as the ones in the big kitchen, the chicken legs and eggs that Cao Yingying liked to eat were still there.

Unexpectedly, when Cao Yingying rubbed her eyes and came to sit down, she grabbed the chicken leg and took two bites, then paused.

"What's wrong? Are today's chicken legs not delicious?" Ms. Cao asked in confusion. The chicken legs were for Cao Yingying, so Ms. Cao picked a piece of chicken and tasted it no different from what she usually eats.

"I can't eat, I'm not hungry." Cao Yingying touched her belly and said in confusion.

"Not hungry? Can't eat?" Ms. Cao was shocked, "How is this possible!"

She knew what kind of appetite her niece had. Not to mention that I just drank a cup of pork rib soup before, even if I eat a plate of snacks, it will not affect my dinner at all.

"Are you sick? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?" Mrs. Cao touched Yingying's head in panic and told her maid, "Go and invite the doctor!"

How could Cao Yingying ask her to invite the doctor? When the doctor came, he would need medicine.

It doesn't matter if she eats delicious food like chicken legs and eggs, but she doesn't want to take a sip of the soup.

His head was shaking like a rattle, "No, no, no, I'm not sick, I just..."

Cao Yingying stammered and couldn't think of a reason, and suddenly thought of playing with sandbags in the afternoon, "I'm just too tired."

"Too tired? Too tired to eat?" Mrs. Cao was doubtful, "Yingying, if you don't want to see the doctor, let your uncle come and see."

Cao Yingying still wanted to refuse, but Mrs. Cao didn't give her a chance and sent her maid to invite Chang Maoming.

Chang Maoming was having dinner with everyone. After hearing this, he smiled and said, "You go back, I will go back after eating."

"But..." The maid wanted to say something else, but when she saw Chang Maoming's fleeting glance, her legs suddenly trembled and she didn't dare to say another word.

"Is Yingying okay? Why don't you go back and take a look first?"

"It's okay." Chang Maoming knew exactly what was going on, but such a trivial matter was not worth mentioning.

He just said to the Xue brothers and Long Baoer, "I will play with Yingying more in the future."

Chang Maoming also wanted to understand something when he came back this time.

Yingying's temperament is not only due to Cao's spoilt, but also because there are no children of her own age to play with at home. She is really used to being domineering.

But the Xue brothers will not pamper Yingying, they will only pamper Long Baoer.

Long Baoer is smart and smart. Although he is several years younger than Yingying, he is far more sensible than Yingying.

Furthermore, Yingying is already seven or eight years old, so she can't let Long Baoer, who is only three or four years old, let her go, right?

So it would be a good idea to use the power of a few children to change Yingying's temperament.

"Okay!" Long Baoer was the first to respond.

Chang Maoming blinked at this smart little girl, who also laughed.

After eating, drinking, and chatting happily, Chang Maoming returned to his yard unhurriedly.

"Husband, you are back!" Ms. Cao was wandering around the room, and when she heard Chang Maoming's footsteps, she hurried out to greet him.

"what happened?"

"Yingying is sick." Ms. Cao hurriedly told the story and looked at Chang Maoming eagerly.

"Husband, I know that you are proficient in medical skills, even better than the doctors at the Imperial Hospital. Please show Yingying quickly."

"Okay." Chang Maoming took a deep look at Mr. Cao and said.
