Fang Chi rolled his eyes. ” I am pregnant, not incapable to do anything, and sitting still is boring at least give me something to do lest I get bored.”

Seeing his vivid expressions as he refused to sit still, Yu Dong chuckled and then took out a large piece of pork that she needed to clean before handling it. ” If you are bored, why don’t you take care of this pork? I am thinking of cooking it together with the cabbage later on.”

Taking the pork from Yu Dong, Fang Chi walked out of the room and as soon as he walked out Yu Dong felt a tug on her trousers. Surprised, she looked down, only to see Mu Ran standing next to her—— she raised her brows and looked at Mu Ran before she lowered her head and carefully asked, ” Is there something that you want?”

Mu Ran hesitated but after a short pause he nodded his head and looked at Yu Dong seriously, ” I … I want to learn how to cook.”

Earlier she was stunned when she noticed that it was Yu Dong who was cooking in the kitchen and Fang Chi was only responsible for helping her around in the kitchen. Mu Ran has never seen something like this before, she has always heard her granddaddy say that it was the responsibility of the mers to cook and clean the house, as the heir of the house she only needs to take care of making money and leave everything to her daddy and then to her husbands.

But there was something that she didn’t understand, why was it that only her daddy have to take care of the house and her mother can sit still and wait to be served upon? If she helped her daddy it wasn’t as if the sky was going to fall —— when Mu Ran was young, she watched her daddy run around doing this and that while her mother would often complain that her daddy was lazy and couldn’t even do something so simple as cook warm meal when she returns home. But her daddy just didn’t have to cook a warm meal, he had to take care of the fields, weed and sow the seeds —— and he also needed to clean the house, even wash the entire laundry of the house.

Her granddaddy was of no help either, he would continuously say he has taken a lot of trouble while giving birth to her mother and the sufferings that he has to go through while he was raising her mother wasn’t small either. So, it was high time he started to enjoy his retired life and wouldn’t help her daddy—— all the work of the Mu house was done by her daddy when they stayed with them.

But now that she was seeing Yu Dong working in the stead of Uncle Chi and even taking care of Uncle Chi, she couldn’t help but idolise Aunt Dong a little, after all—— this was how a good family was supposed to be, they needed to take care of each other.

Yu Dong was surprised by her sudden request, she looked at Mu Ran who was still young and smilingly asked, ” You want to learn how to cook? Why?” She then looked at her son and Mu Zhu who were playing together and added, ” you don’t want to play with little bun and your brother?”

Mu Ran tilted her head, thought about it and then shook her head as she loudly exclaimed, ” They are scary.”

” Ah well,” Yu Dong felt sweat drop from her forehead as she raised her head and watched her son pick up a wooden block, and take aim as he threw the wooden block at the cotton stuffed doll that has his daddy portrait stuck to it. After Chen Mi left, little bun made a huge fuss asking her to draw his daddy’s drawing, she thought it was because he was missing Chen Mi and did as he asked, it took her a good three hours to draw a portrait that had a bit of resemblance to Chen Mi and gave it to little bun, who later asked her to stick it to a teddy bear.

She was on the verge of thinking that he was so adorable but then little bun dragged the teddy bear to the other corner and then placed it against the wall before he started throwing wooden blocks at it. Of course, it was still adorable in one way or another but that was just her mommy heart looking through the rose-tinted glass to Mu Ran who has never seen anything like this —— it must be somewhat scary.

Just as she was going to tell Mu Ran that little bun wasn’t that scary, she saw her son hold wooden blocks in both his hands and started throwing the blocks like he was using a windmill and beside him, Mu Zhu clapped his hands as he cheered the former on. ” You are doing great! You are doing great!”

Well, these brats were indeed scary, weren’t they?

She felt three black lines drop on her forehead as she turned her attention to Mu Ran and changed her words at once, ” I know that he is a bit rough but he has his heart in the right place.”

” Haaaaaa!” A loud scream, followed by a loud bang and then —— Crash!

The teddy bear could no longer withstand the pressure and finally succumbed to the torture as the portrait got torn in half.

Both Mu Ran and Yu Dong turned to look at what just happened and then turned their heads away just in time to see little bun’s triumphant dancey dance.

After watching that sight, Mu Ran simply said, ” I still want to learn cooking, it’s much safer.”

Yu Dong: “…..” You know what you are right, my dear little one.
