Chapter 504: Chapter 504: Da Bao and Er Bao Return to the Country
That afternoon, Li Long, Lili, and Sanbao went to the supermarket to buy ingredients. Li Long and Lili wanted to eat everything they saw, and they ended up buying a cartful of snacks.
When they got ho, Lin Feng was busy in the outdoor vegetable garden. When he saw the children returning, he patted the dirt from his hands and stood up to start cooking.
"You bought a fish!" he called out. "How should we cook it? Braised, stead, or as fillets?"
Sibao, the little foodie, imdiately shouted, "Braised!"
Of course, he couldn’t just listen to one son. "You all decide together!"
Xiaobao was sleeping soundly in her crib in the living room, with Dabai and Feifei dozing on the floor beside it.
After they ca inside, Lin Feng reminded the children, "Go to your rooms and do your howork. I’ll call you when dinner is ready."
After they washed their hands, Sibao tried to touch Xiaobao’s hand, but Sanbao swatted his hand away.
"Don’t disturb her! Let Xiaobao sleep!"
Sibao waved at his sleeping sister, and as Sanbao watched them for a mont, he couldn’t help but feel a surge of emotion. Our little sister is the cutest being in the world. She’s absolutely adorable!
When Zhang Yuxi got ho, she looked exhausted. It had been her first day back teaching. After taking a year off for her pregnancy and maternity leave, she was surprised to feel so tired after just two classes.
"You’re back? How was today?" Lin Feng asked.
"Not bad!" Zhang Yuxi replied, entering the kitchen with a beaming smile. "Are the kids back?"
"They’re back and doing their howork upstairs. Xiaobao’s in the living room." As Lin Feng spoke, his ears twitched. "Ah, Xiaobao’s awake."
The couple went over to the crib and saw that Xiaobao was indeed awake, just in ti for Zhang Yuxi to nurse her.
Lin Feng squatted down and asked Xiaobao, "Did you wake up because you heard Mommy’s voice?"
Slling the familiar scent, Xiaobao latched on and began to feed. She was very strong and had a large appetite, often breaking into a sweat every ti she ate. She was bigger than average when she was born and had been growing rapidly since her first month, making her much larger than other babies her age.
As Xiaobao gulped down her milk, she watched Lin Feng with wide eyes, her little legs kicking energetically.
"You feed her, I’ll go cook."
Lin Feng kissed Xiaobao’s little sock-clad foot and went to the kitchen to continue cooking.
Zhang Yuxi gazed tenderly at Xiaobao and said softly, "Eat slowly, sweetie. No one is going to take it from you."
Right now, she had more than enough milk to feed the baby for at least eight months. For so won, the more the baby nurses, the more milk they produce. For others, their supply diminishes if the baby doesn’t eat enough. Zhang Yuxi was firmly in the forr category. Every ti Xiaobao fed, it was clear she had an abundant supply.
After Xiaobao finished feeding and had been burped, Zhang Yuxi felt her back and, sure enough, it was damp with sweat. She placed a sweat-absorbent cloth on her back and carried her to the kitchen.
"Co on, let’s go see what Daddy’s doing."
After eating, Xiaobao would usually stay awake for a little while.
Lin Feng was already plating the food. "Oh, Xiaobao’s here to watch Daddy cook! Whatever you want to eat in the future, Daddy will make it for you, okay?"
Zhang Yuxi answered on her daughter’s behalf, "Of course! Daddy’s cooking is delicious. He can make anything!"
Lin Feng wiped his hands, took out his phone, and called the children down for dinner.
Dinner was a rich spread, and Li Long and Lili loved Lin Feng’s cooking.
After dinner, Sibao took Dabai for a walk. Their last visit to the vet had revealed that, in human years, Dabai and Feifei were already seventy or eighty years old. We have to be prepared for them to leave us at any ti.
Sanbao helped Li Long and Lili with their howork while Lin Feng looked after the baby and Zhang Yuxi worked on her lesson plans.
Babies need milk, but they also need an appropriate amount of water. The old-fashioned belief that milk contains enough water and that babies don’t need more is incorrect. Lin Feng sterilized a baby bottle with boiling water and then filled it with warm water. After coaxing Xiaobao to finish the water, he changed her diaper and cleaned her bottom. Because she was a baby girl, he was always extra gentle.
The days passed by, one after another...
Before they knew it, the exchange period ca to an end. Li Long and Lili were very reluctant to leave, wishing they could stay in this ho forever. The Lin family prepared parting gifts for them and also gave them small presents for their own parents.
Li Long, unable to hide his reluctance, asked, "Can I co to visit you if I have ti in the future?"
"Of course," Lin Feng replied with a smile. "You’re always welco!"
Lili was more reserved. "I’m sorry for all the trouble I caused. I had a very happy month here."
"We did too," Zhang Yuxi said with a gentle smile.
The exchange students would all be returning to their ho country together.
「The next day.」
Dabao and Erbao returned ho, dragging suitcases that were filled to the brim.
"What’s all this?" Zhang Yuxi asked with a laugh.
When they opened their luggage, it revealed snacks, practical items, and so interesting toys. There was sothing for everyone. Even Xiaobao, the littlest one, received a cute musical toy.
It felt indescribably good to be ho. It wasn’t that being away was bad, but there was just no sense of belonging.
After bathing, they lay in their beds and opened their sibling group chat.
Sibao had already posted in the group: "How was it? Was it fun?"
Erbao replied: "It was alright. The howork was no problem, but I just couldn’t get used to the food!"
Dabao added: "Their school’s laboratory really impressed . I want to set up one at ho. I’ll talk to Dad about it tomorrow when I have a chance."
Erbao continued: "They have all sorts of clubs, like university societies!"
Sanbao typed: "Thanks for the gifts, guys. I really like them!"
Dabao replied with a laugh: "Don’t ntion it. We weren’t sure what you’d like..."
Erbao added: "You’re not allowed to dislike them! I bought the best stuff! HAHAHAHA!"
...
「anwhile.」
Li Long was back at his school, scribbling furiously in his notebook. Man, I feel like I’ve leveled up! These questions all seem so simple now.
In just one class period, he transford. He now asked questions whenever he was confused and took impeccably neat notes. His teachers were amazed. Li Long had always been smart, but he’d never applied himself to his studies before.
In the cafeteria, Li Long frowned as he picked at the bland food. If there was one thing he missed most, it was definitely Lin Feng’s delicious ho-cooked als!
His best friends ca over. Li Long had missed the morning classes because of jet lag. They crowded around him, eager to hear about his trip.
"So tell us, is that girl really as beautiful as people say?"
"Are you two dating? A lot of guys want to go after her..."
"She’s a musical genius, right? Send
a picture of her! My little sister’s a huge fan!"
Li Long found himself the center of attention and was clearly enjoying it. He pulled up the photos on his phone but gave them a warning. "I’ll let you look, but don’t you dare post these anywhere. They’re very low-key and private people."
Everyone was stunned by the good looks of the Lin family’s children. Especially since the group was all boys, they were completely blown away by Sanbao’s staggering beauty, clicking their tongues in amazent.
Li Long’s phone cara didn’t have any beauty filters, making Sanbao’s natural, unadorned face look utterly divine.
