Then, he smiled and kissed his daughter's thin little face.
"How could that be? Daddy went to find something delicious for Tuan Tuan. Daddy loves Tuan Tuan very much.”
Tuan Tuan's eyes instantly lit up, their round eyes glistening.
"Then Tuan Tuan will wait for Papa here!”
The little guy said.
She staggered to the door of her house and brought over a small stool with a crippled leg. She sat obediently at the door.
Yan Liyi could no longer control her tears.
……………………
Li Xiu's village was called Li Family Village.
20 miles away from the county.
This year was the year 2000, and every household was running toward the road of a well-off society, except for Li Xiu.
His family was still living in the two-story building that his father had lent him money to build.
However, he really couldn't take it out later on. He only made a shell, and there was no decoration inside at all.
Therefore, this red brick house was leaky in summer and winter.
They didn't even have money to install windows.
At the beginning of the 20th century, the small bungalows that had slowly emerged in Li Family Village seemed so out of place.
Li Xiu didn't notice it before, but now that he was walking on the road, he noticed that the way others looked at him was slightly different.
He sighed.
He didn't explain and just wore his dirty clothes and ran straight to the river.
When he arrived at the river, he plunged into it.
At this moment, the river in the village had not been polluted and was very clean. One could see small fish and prawns just by flipping over the rocks.
There were even small shrimps hidden in the water grass by the shore.
Li Xiu swam two laps in the water. The cream stains on his body were soaked. He rubbed them off with his hands.
He took off his clothes and tied his sleeves tightly. Then, he fished up the water grass on the shore.
In the next moment, a large number of shrimps and a few small fish appeared in the temporary net bag made of white shirts.
Li Xiu was delighted.
He casually picked up a plastic bag from the rocky beach and put it away.
Then, he started to fish for prawns.
Half an hour later, half a bag full of shrimps and a bowl of fish appeared in the plastic bag.
Li Xiu was satisfied.
He filled the bag with some water and tied it up before diving into the reeds by the shore.
It was close to the Dragon Boat Festival. The egg yolk of wild ducks in this season was especially nutritious.
It was yellow with a hint of red.
Li Xiu stepped on the reeds and walked around the reed marsh. He found more than ten big duck eggs.
He heaved a sigh of relief and carefully put the dozens of duck eggs into his shirt pocket.
Then, he picked up the plastic bag on the shore and quickly went home.
An hour later, Li Xiu appeared at the door of his house.
He pushed open the door and saw that Yan Liyi had finished cooking porridge. She took out a small bowl and placed all the rice grains into Tuan Tuan's bowl.
There was only a bowl of light yellow soup in front of her.
Li Xiu had actually returned.
For the first time, surprise flashed across Yan Liyi's eyes.
Tuan Tuan reacted even faster.
She stood up from the small stool and opened her arms to pounce on Chen Hanfei.
"Papa! You're back? Tuan Tuan misses you!"
Li Xiu smiled.
He squatted down but did not hug her.
After all, he was still wet.
"Tuan Tuan, be good. Daddy went out to look for food, so it's a little late.”
He smiled and leaned over to gently touch the little fellow's forehead with his forehead." Is Tuan Tuan hungry?"
The little guy tilted his head, blinked his big eyes, and nodded.
She poked her flat stomach and said aggrievedly,"Tuan Tuan is so hungry. Tuan Tuan wants to eat meat.”
Li Xiu smiled.
"Okay, Daddy will cook now!"
Yan Liyi also came over.
She looked at the drenched Chen Han in front of her and opened her mouth, but she didn't say anything for a long time.
Chen Han was holding a plastic bag with one hand, which was full of small shrimps.
Although the white shirt on his other hand was made into a net pocket, the opening was still open.
She could see the snow-white duck eggs inside.
Yan Liyi's cold expression finally changed.
She looked at Chen Han speechlessly and widened her eyes."Did you…catch them?"
Li Xiu smiled and nodded.
He shook off the water in his shoes and walked in with his things.
"I went to the river to get some prawns and a bowl of fish. These duck eggs were all picked up from the reeds.”
He looked at Yan Liyi and said," Don't worry. I didn't do anything illegal. I didn't borrow money."”
Yan Liyi was speechless.
She believed that.
At this moment, everyone in the village who could borrow money had been borrowed by Li Xiu.
Who would be willing to lend it to him?
She remained silent.
For the first time, he had a slight change in his opinion of Li Xiu.
Li Xiu didn't say much.
He quickly walked to the courtyard, took off his soaked leather shoes, and changed into sandals.
He walked to the stove and scooped up the pot of porridge with a large basin.
In addition, the water spinach in the pot was also placed on a plate, and the inside had been washed clean.
Li Xiu glanced at the seasoning.
Fortunately, the condiments at home were complete.
He quickly washed the shrimps in his hands and heated the oil in the pot.
However, when he was pouring the oil, he clearly saw Yan Liyi frown. Her face was filled with heartache, but she hesitated to speak.
Li Xiu naturally understood.
She felt bad for putting in too much oil.
However, Li Xiu knew that from today onwards, he would never let his mother suffer again!
Forget about oil, even if it was something good, he would buy it for them!
Li Xiu poured the small shrimps into the wok and stir-fried them over high heat.
Yan Liyi came over to help burn the firewood.
He threw in some garlic and some salt. The fragrance collided, and in an instant, it filled the air with passion!
Tuan Tuan blinked his eyes, and his eyes lit up instantly!
"It smells so good! Daddi! It smells so good!"
The little fellow was really craving for it.
She ran over to the stove and looked at Li Xiu.
