Siheyuan: The happy life of a little chef

"Lu Yuan, when are you going to go home with Wen Yu? When are you going to get married? When are you going to have a child?"

Lu Yuan lowered his head in shame.

"Uncle, it's my fault. I feel sorry for Wenyu for dragging it on like this, but I wanted to break up, but Wenyu scolded me. She said she was willing to wait for me and take me to see you when I stand up again."

Li Jianjun smiled. This was something his precious daughter could do.

"She said that, and you have no idea?"

Lu Yuan said.

"I listen to Wenyu."

Li Jianjun nodded with satisfaction.

"Settling down and starting a family, start with a family, then start a career, there's nothing shameful about that. When I met Wen Yu's mother, she was just a small chef. Isn't she a successful career now? Don't take these things too seriously."

Lu Yuan nodded.

"You're right."

Nonsense, since we have succeeded, of course everything we say is right.

Li Jianjun sighed.

"Recently, Wenyu and her mother had a big fight. You should know that she even moved out because of this."

Lu Yuan looked confused.

"Uncle, I don't know, what's going on?"

Li Jianjun was stunned for a moment, then he understood.

"Her mother wanted her to go on a blind date, but she refused, so there was some unpleasantness. But you have to understand, as parents, who of us doesn't worry about our children? Besides, we didn't know you existed, so I hope you can understand."

Lu Yuan lowered his head.

"I understand. Wenyu didn't tell me, so I don't know. Otherwise, I could have advised her."

Li Jianjun glared at him.

"What are you advising her to do? Are you advising her to go on a blind date?"

Lu Yuan waved his hands quickly.

"No, no, I advised her to go home and talk to her aunt nicely and not to be angry."

Li Jianjun's tone improved a little.

"That's more like it. Let me tell you, I raised Wenyu little by little. If you dare to let her down and make her sad, I can do anything. I don't want you to regret it one day. Do you understand?"

Feeling the aura of a superior from Li Jianjun, Lu Yuan's heart beat violently and he swallowed.

"No uncle, I will definitely not let Wen Yu down."

Li Jianjun nodded with satisfaction.

"Lu Yuan, don't lose the one you cherish for the sake of so-called face. It will be too late to regret it later. Find a time and let Wen Yu take you back to see her mother. This way she will feel relieved."

How could Lu Yuan dare to refuse?

"I know. I'll listen to uncle."

During this conversation, Li Jianjun was very satisfied with Lu Yuan's attitude. He thought the young man was quite good.

"It's good that you understand. I'm not here to force you. You have to understand our feelings as parents. Okay, I'm leaving now."

Lu Yuan stood up quickly.

"Uncle, I'll take you there."

Li Jianjun waved his hand.

"No, my car is right there, go ahead and do your work."

Li Jianjun took a few steps and came back.

Lu Yuan was a little nervous.

"Uncle, is there anything else?"

Li Jianjun approached Lu Yuan and looked at him seriously, which made Lu Yuan feel a little uneasy.

"Tell me the truth, how far have you and Wen Yu come? Have you crossed the line?"

Lu Yuan was startled and shook his hands quickly.

"No, no, uncle, how dare I? We've never held hands before."

Li Jianjun breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm not an old-fashioned person, but my family still attaches great importance to family education. Things like this must not happen before the time is right. Do you understand?"

Lu Yuan nodded quickly.

"Uncle, I understand. I am also a conservative person."

Li Jianjun patted him on the shoulder.

"Just so you know, let's go."

Li Jianjun returned to the car, and Qiqi asked hurriedly.

"Dad, what took you so long?"

Li Jianjun smiled.

"Didn't Dad say he had something to do? Now that we're done, let's go home, okay? I'll build you a playground, okay?"

The three little ones clapped their hands repeatedly.

"Okay, let's go home and make a playground."

Watching Li Jianjun drive away, Lu Yuan wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"It's so scary. I'd better talk to Wenyu tonight and ask her to take me home. I'm afraid I'll be scared to death if it happens again."

Li Jianjun brought the three little ones back home and opened the room where the sundries were stored. Inside were various wooden boards that Li Jianjun had prepared long ago for assembly. Each piece was polished with tung oil.

Li Jianjun moved the wooden boards to the yard, and the three little ones gathered around to watch.

Qiqi asked hurriedly.

"Dad, when are we going to do it?"

Li Jianjun touched her head.

"Dad is going to cook now. After lunch, Dad will start to play. You can eat and take a nap and then you can play. Okay?"

Qiqi shook her head.

"I don't want to sleep. I want to do it with my dad."

Haohao and Xinxin also refused and said they wanted to do it together.

Li Jianjun had no choice but to agree.

"Okay, let's do it together after dinner."

The three little ones got Li Jianjun's permission and shouted excitedly.

Li Jianjun looked at the three happy little ones and couldn't help but smile.

"Okay, now go play with your toys for a while. I'm going to cook. Do you want anything to eat?"

The three little ones are now in an excited state and don’t care what to eat at all. As long as it is made by Li Jianjun, they will love it and say they are definitely not picky eaters.

Li Jianjun was also relaxed and happy. He made a tomato and egg soup, a stir-fried lettuce, a braised chicken, and a dish of braised beef in soy sauce. The braised beef was ready and he just had to cut it and serve it on a plate.

It was time for dinner, and the three little ones sat down immediately. None of them acted naughty today, and they ate efficiently. They ate whatever Li Jianjun asked them to eat and seemed particularly obedient.

Looking at Qiqi who was eating very quickly, Li Jianjun said.

"Eat slowly, no one is snatching it away. Chewing slowly helps digestion. Do you hear me?"

Qiqi said quickly.

"We want to finish eating quickly and then make toys."

Li Jianjun said.

"Eat slowly, if you don't obey me, I won't do it."

Sure enough, this sentence was the most lethal, and the speed of the three people slowed down significantly.

After dinner, Qiqi couldn't wait to ask.

"Dad, when are we going to start?"

The other two little ones also looked at Li Jianjun with wide eyes.

Li Jianjun laughed.

"It's the same as in the morning. You guys take a slow walk to help digest the food. Daddy will wash the dishes and come back."

Qiqi said considerately.

"Dad, let me help you wash the dishes."

Haohao and Xinxin said hurriedly.

"Uncle, we'll help you wash the dishes too."

Li Jianjun knew what they were thinking.

"Okay, be obedient. I'll wash the dishes quickly and be back in a moment. You go first."

The three little ones had no choice but to digest their food.

Li Jianjun was very satisfied looking at the cleanly eaten food. Li Jianjun had controlled the quantity well, not too little, not too much, just right, and there was no leftover.

It's easy to clean up and wash dishes faster.

Seeing Li Jianjun coming out, the three little ones surrounded him.

Qiqi said hurriedly.

"Dad, we've been walking for a while, isn't it time to do it?"
