Chapter 275 Roasted Sweet Potatoes
Chapter 275 Roasted Sweet Potatoes
The next morning, the hotel staff's child came to find Yoyo with a few friends. "Yoyo, are you home? We've come to play with you. Let's go roast sweet potatoes together today!"
YoYo was brushing her teeth and washing her face when she heard her new friends from yesterday inviting her to play together. She was very happy and ran to the balcony with her toothbrush in her mouth. She stood on tiptoe and waved to them, saying, "Wait a minute, I'll come down to find you after I finish brushing my teeth."
"Okay, little sister, don't worry, we'll wait for you, no matter how long it takes," the child downstairs called out.
Standing at the door looking at the triplets, I felt something was off. Why did this scene look like a confession under a girls' dormitory?
I'm obsessed! Now, whenever I see a boy, I feel a sense of crisis that he might steal my sister away.
"okay."
Standing behind, Zhan Guiting looked at the excited little dumpling and felt as if he were one of the triplets.
It's okay, if that day ever comes, he will make a move.
The man, his long, straight legs swaying beneath his trousers, walked up behind the little dumpling and asked in a deep voice, "Can't you just not go?"
"Daddy, you've been a bit clingy lately." The little dumpling, toothbrush in her mouth, tilted her head up, glanced at Zhan Guiting, and mumbled something indistinctly before walking past him and into the bathroom.
Zhan Guiting: ...
Soon, YoYo finished washing up, quickly ate breakfast, and went out with her friends.
The group held hands and gracefully left them with only their backs.
"Going to roast sweet potatoes? I think I should go and see." Zhan Juzhou watched Youyou run off and hurriedly chased after her.
"Roasted sweet potato? I've never seen one before. I have to go and see it." Zhan Chiyan also ran out.
Gradually, the uncles, the triplets, and Zhan Jinxi all chased after them.
Zhan Guiting stood there, hesitating for a long time, before finally slowly following after him.
The fields are unusually lively at this moment.
The Zhan family and more than a dozen villagers gathered together to roast sweet potatoes.
The fire for roasting sweet potatoes has been set up.
"Little sister, step aside, let your brother light the fire." Zhan Jingwen pushed Youyou far away, took a lighter, and lit the straw. Several friends were stuffing firewood into the fire to make it burn brighter so that the sweet potatoes would roast faster.
"Throw in some more cow dung, it'll smell even better." A local child, who had somehow gotten hold of cow dung, threw it all in.
The triplets tried to stop them, but it was too late. Then, fearing they might have misheard, they asked again, "What did you just lose?"
“Cow dung can make sweet potatoes more fragrant and delicious,” a local child said with a laugh.
"Cow dung? You can eat that? It even adds flavor?" Zhan Jingyang felt his worldview was shaken.
Although many traditional Chinese medicines are made from animal excrement, he really couldn't accept this because he had seen it with his own eyes. How could he possibly eat it?
"Of course you can eat it. We use cow dung to roast sweet potatoes every year. Don't worry, it's safe to eat and not poisonous." A local child patted Zhan Jingyang on the shoulder and comforted him with a smile.
……
A group of people sat on the ground around a fire, chatting and warming themselves while waiting for the sweet potatoes to roast.
Everyone was chatting happily, but Zhan Jinxi seemed out of it. She picked up her phone, took a picture of everyone gathered around roasting sweet potatoes, and sent it to Huo Kongye.
However, after a long time, the other party did not reply.
Does Huo Yan's improvement mean that their connection is about to end?
Suddenly, everyone stood up, sang folk songs, and danced.
Zhan Jinxi was forced to stand up and join in the singing and dancing.
Soon, the sweet potatoes were cooked, and everyone ate them amidst laughter and joy.
However, Zhan Jinxi's interest didn't seem to lie in the sweet potatoes; she kept glancing at her phone, as if she was expecting something.
Zhan Chiyan, who was standing to the side, noticed Zhan Jinxi's actions several times and understood immediately.
"Are you in a relationship?" Zhan Chiyan grinned at Zhan Jinxi, showing off his bright white teeth, and teased her with a smile.
"No." Zhan Jinxi rolled his eyes at him and quickly denied it.
"So you want to talk, huh?" Zhan Chiyan smiled again.
Zhan Jinxi glared at him, "You talk too much, don't you?"
"Want me to find you one? What kind do you want? Tall, handsome, ascetic, fatherly, or gentle and melancholic?"
Zhan Jinxi glared at him.
"Hey, let me tell you, you absolutely have to have a relationship in college. Otherwise, once you graduate, you won't have time to date. It'll either be a long-distance relationship, or your values will change, and there will be a whole host of problems. It won't be as pure as campus romance..."
"How do you know so much?"
Zhan Chiyan is the same age as her and is still a freshman in college. He hasn't graduated yet, but he knows so much.
"Hey, I know much more than you think. As the saying goes, 'Listen to advice and you'll eat your fill.' That's always true."
"So, have you decided which one you want? I'll find them for you, I guarantee they'll all be incredibly handsome." Zhan Chiyan was nonchalant and had no sense of propriety.
"Shut up!"
Zhan Jinxi thought Zhan Chiyan was being a bit too noisy, so he grabbed a uncracked sweet potato and stuffed it into Zhan Chiyan's mouth to shut him up.
Startled, Zhan Chiyan quickly vomited.
Damn, the skin isn't even peeled! Do you know that this sweet potato is roasting in a fire with cow dung in it? If the cow dung gets on the skin, he'll probably eat a mouthful of cow dung!
Zhan Jinxi glanced at him, thinking, "Serves him right."
After eating sweet potatoes, everyone gathered together to play games, which brought back memories for the older generation and allowed the younger generation of children to learn about traditional culture from earlier times.
Everyone had a great time, and the party didn't end until evening.
Huo family
Huo Kong was cooking, while Huo Yan was playing with the Maine Coon cat in the living room.
Huo Yan really liked Zhan Jinxi's Maine Coon cat, so Zhan Jinxi temporarily gave the cat to Huo Yan to raise, which was also helpful for his physical and mental development.
Huo Kong originally wanted to buy Huo Yan an identical one, but for some reason, Huo Yan refused no matter what he said and insisted on having Zhan Jinxi's one.
"Bang bang bang..."
Suddenly, a loud knocking sounded, startling Huo Yan, who grabbed the Maine Coon and ran to the balcony.
Huo Kong also rushed out of the kitchen in a hurry. Instead of responding to the person knocking on the door, he was looking for Huo Yan, who must have been frightened.
Suddenly, Huo Kong also heard sobbing and found Huo Yan on the balcony.
Huo Kong also picked up Huo Yan to comfort him.
While feeling sorry for Huo Yan, Huo Kong was also relieved that, at least after being frightened, Huo Yan did not burst into loud, shrill cries as she usually did.
This also shows that Huo Yan has made great progress.
Huo Kong was also sincerely grateful for the help from Zhan Jinxi and his team.
"Huo Kongye, I know you're home. Open the door, open the door now, or I'll kick it down!"
Suddenly, Mr. Huo's father's cursing voice rang out.
Huo Yan tightened his grip on Huo Kongye, sobbing softly as his body began to tremble slightly.
