  Chapter 39 I Smell the Smell

  She never asks what other people do, but the scent of her stuffing is too attractive, and the children of the neighbors on both sides have good noses.

  Sneaking out from the house following the smell, an eight-year-old boy and a four-year-old boy were looking in through the crack of the door.

   "Little brother, this smells really good"

   "Yes, it's more fragrant than my mother's stewed meat."

   "This is the house of the aunt who sells fruit."

   "What delicious food do you think she cooks?"

"have no idea."

  Qiao Mai put the prepared stuffing on the table in the courtyard, and started making dough again. Hearing the conversation of the children outside, she laughed.

   After finishing his work, he moved the chopping board to the table in the courtyard, tilted his head and looked at the door, and the two little greedy cats were still there.

  Qiao Mai looked at Linger in the space with his mind, the little guy was sleeping soundly on his back.

  The child grows up slowly and cannot stay in the space all the time, she needs a playmate.

  Thinking of this, she opened the courtyard door and looked at the two little ones.

   "Who is nagging at my door, tell me your name?"

  The eight-year-old boy blushed, "Auntie, I, I am my aunt's left neighbor. My surname is Chen, my first name is Hao, and my nickname is Niu Niu."

  The four-year-old boy smiled at her, "Auntie, we have met several times, I am your right neighbor, my name is Yuan Haichuan, nicknamed Chuaner"

   "Welcome to my house as guests."

  Qiao Mai moved his body and made a gesture of invitation, and the two little guys came in with a smile.

  Qiao Mai didn't barge in the door either, but kept the courtyard door ajar, led them to the courtyard, moved two benches and placed them in front of the table.

   "Come on, sit down and talk."

  The two sat down obediently, with a somewhat restrained look.

   "Auntie, what do you make delicious at home, so delicious?"

   "How about making dumplings, have you ever eaten dumplings?"

  Chen Hao stretched out two fingers, "I seem to have eaten here twice."

   "What about you?" Qiao Mai asked Yuan Haichuan.

  He pursed his mouth, "It seems that he hasn't eaten."

   "After the aunt wraps up the dumplings, can I invite you to eat the dumplings?"

  The two little eyes lit up, and they nodded happily. They sat on the bench obediently, motionless, very obedient and lovable.

  Qiao Mai took a small bunch of grapes from space, washed them in a small basin, and put them in front of them.

   "Before the dumplings are cooked, auntie invites you to eat this."

   "Wow, what is this?"

"Grape!"

  Qiao Mai reached out and pulled a grain, peeled the skin, put the meat in his mouth, and spit out the seeds.

   "That's how it's eaten. It's so sweet. Come and taste it."

  The two little ones stretched out their little hands, grabbed the grapes on the top and ate them.

  After waking up, she began to rub and squeeze her skin. She bought several green curtains and never used them.

  She was talking to the two children while packing, and when they heard the family members calling them, they quickly responded.

   When Yuan Jiaqi and the Chen family next door came to find him, they saw such an eye-catching scene.

  Ms. Chen saw her son eating such precious fruits at Mrs. Qiao's house, so she immediately ran over and took his hand.

   "You're not playing at home, what are you doing here to disturb your aunt?"

  Yuan Jiaqi didn't complain about the child, but came up to salute Qiao.

   "I'm causing trouble for Mrs. Qiao."

   "No trouble, I also like children, they are very good here."

   Mrs. Chen smiled at her embarrassedly, "These grapes haven't been released yet, have they?"

   "It's coming soon. I plan to sell this in a while. You don't have to take it to heart. As much as a child can eat, you are a guest when you come to my house. I should entertain my little guests."

  The two little ones liked Qiao Mai very much, and Chuan'er looked up at Yuan Jiaqi.

   "Daddy, auntie said to invite me to eat dumplings tonight."

  Yuan Jiaqi and the Chen family were in a dilemma, and Qiao Mai could see that the two families were thin-skinned.

   "Go back, let them play with me, after dinner, you can come and pick them up."

   "How embarrassing is this?"

   "They are all neighbors, so there is no need to worry so much. I am single, and I need you to take care of me."

   "Well then, we'll pick them up after dark."

"Uh-huh"

  The parents of the two children have left, and they are relieved knowing that they are playing here.

   Half an hour later, all the dumplings were wrapped, the fire was lit, and the water was filled. They planned to cook a pot first and let the two children eat first.

   It happened that shopkeeper Lu and the others were all here, some were lighting the fire, some were cooking dumplings, so they made room for her and Lu Sanniang.

   "Sister, who are these two children?"

   "It's from the neighbor's house. I smelled it when I was mixing the stuffing."

   "Be cautious when making friends. I'll help you find out about their personalities and family backgrounds later."

   "When the thief was caught that day, they all came over. I am so busy that I don't have time to make friends."

   "I understand, take your time."

  The first pot of dumplings is cooked, and everyone takes their own bowls. They will not be polite when they are so cooked.

  Qiao Mai put two small bowls in front of the two little ones, and put the dumplings in their bowls.

   "Eat it after cooling down, or it will burn your mouth."

  The two little ones looked at the dumpling, swallowed their saliva, and blew hot air with their small mouths. They looked so cute.

   Shopkeeper Lu observed Qiao Mai while eating, seeing that she liked children so much, he couldn't help but say something.

   "Seeing them, do you miss your children?"

   "Yes, if the child is alive, he can eat and drink now, and he can crawl all over the ground."

   "When it stabilizes and the household registration is completed, then go to another family? You are still young, and you will have children."

   "Hey, let's not talk about this after dinner."

  Lu Sanniang knew that she was sad, so she quickly changed the topic.

   "I said, your craftsmanship is really good, everything you make is very delicious, you can open a restaurant if you can't."

   "It's too tiring to open a restaurant. Besides, I don't want to compete with shopkeeper Tong. As long as others do business, I don't do it. I don't like to compete with others."

   "Do you think that if you don't fight or grab, trouble won't come to your door? If others want to envy you, you can't escape."

   "Let's talk about it at that time."

  All the dumplings are cooked, and everyone is having dinner around the big table. The dumplings tonight are very delicious, and they praised them while eating.

  After Chuaner was full, he patted his belly, "Auntie, this dumpling is so delicious, I'm full, but my father has never eaten such a delicious dumpling, can I bring him a bowl?"

   This little guy is really filial, he eats well and doesn't forget his father.

   "It's ok. Auntie still has a lot of dumplings here. If you can't eat them, they will go bad the next day. I just took a bowl away to help Auntie share."

  Qiao Mai said in his heart, you little fine bean, take my things and go home to be filial to your father.

   "Then I'll send it to my dad now, it will get cold later, it won't taste good."

  Qiao Mai pointed at Chuan'er and shopkeeper Lu and said, "See, you are only a little old, so you know you love his daddy. He will make things happen like this, and he will definitely be promising when he grows up."

   "Where's his mother?"

   "It was difficult to give birth to him, and it's gone."

"Pitiful!"

   Shopkeeper Lu picked up a bowl of dumplings and put them in front of Chuan'er.

   "Go, aunt will take you back."

   Shopkeeper Lu picked him up, and he walked out of the courtyard with the bowl in his hands.

  Chen Hao also wanted to give his mother a bowl of dumplings, "Auntie, I want it too"

   "I'll give you a bowl too, you can choose"

   "Thank you, Auntie"

  Two pups came to her house as guests, and left with food and food.

   Shopkeeper Lu looked at Qiao Mai strangely after he came back, and Qiao Mai asked her.

   "Sister, what's the matter with you?"

   "I think he grew up pretty well after that. You treat his child well, so it's because you fell in love with him?"

  Qiao Mai couldn't laugh or cry, "Then how do I treat that boy well? Could it be that I fell in love with his mother?"

   "Pop, haha!"

  Everyone in the yard laughed, and Shopkeeper Lu couldn't hold back his laughter.

   "I'm overthinking!"

   "I've said it all, no matter what, I have to buy my own house, get my household registration, and don't consider anything else."

   "Why don't I give this house to you and forget it, and get the household registration as soon as possible so you can feel at ease."
