Chapter 126: She Liked Him So Much

After returning home, she was surprised to find that her parents and brothers had already returned. Her father pulled Little Big Brother’s guards and insisted on making them stay for dinner. Only when she heard that did she know that they had gone to help them plant seedlings.
Although Guard Yun and the others had never farmed before, the five men worked hard together and settled the Ning Family’s three days of work in a day. Everyone was pleasantly surprised and very grateful. It was really unreasonable not to treat them to a meal.
When Xiaoxiao went to cook, Yun Yi and the others praised sincerely when they smelled the fragrance. “Miss Ning is young, but her culinary skills are really good. Unlike us, we only know how to cook meat when we buy it. If Miss Ning didn’t send some seasoning and sauce from time to time, we could only swallow them with the steamed buns.”
The Ning Family, who had been eating very well recently, actually began to pity the Zhao Family, who had better conditions than them. Of course, their hearts ached for the ingredients that had not been treated properly.
Ning Fengnian and Madam Song looked at these guards, who were still children in their eyes, with heartache. They invited them warmly, “Come to Uncle’s house to eat in the future.”
The guards could not help but say, “There are so many of us. It’s fine if we come once in a while, but if we keep coming, won’t your house be empty?!”
Ning Erlang looked at them as if they were fools. “Then can’t you bring the rice and ingredients to my sister to cook?”
Madam Song wanted to slap his head. “How can you say that!” There was no reason for the guests to bring their own ingredients!
Xiaoxiao, who came to serve the dishes, had a thought. “Actually, I think it’s okay.”
Madam Song and Ning Fengnian looked at their daughter in confusion. Ning Erlang, who was just joking, also looked at his sister in confusion. Ning Dalang took the things from his sister.
Xiaoxiao, who was the center of attention, handed the plate to her brother and said, “I mean, our families are eating together. This time, my family is buying groceries, and next time Little Big Brother All Yan’s family will buy groceries.” Yun Yi’s chopsticks fell on the table with a clatter. He and his brothers exchanged glances crazily—Did Miss Ning call Master “Little Big Brother Ah Yan” just now? And Master has no intention of objecting! What is going on! What happened! What did they miss!
Xiaoxiao continued, “Look, it just so happens that we have a lot of things to do at home recently and everyone is very busy. Although there’s a vegetable field at home, it’s always a little tiring to eat the same vegetables every day. Moreover, there’s vegetables at home without meat, so we have to go out and buy them. If the two families eat together in the future, we can split the time to buy groceries and 1 don’t have to think about what to cook every day. Little Big Brother All Yan and the rest don’t have to think about what to eat for their next meal. Isn’t this the best of both worlds?”
That made sense. Yun Yi and the others could not agree anymore. God knew how much they had to worry about their master’s food every day. However, in order to keep their identities a secret, they could not find a chef casually. They would rather go into battle to kill the enemy than be responsible for what their master would eat later!
Everyone thought about it and felt that this suggestion was quite reasonable. Only Rong Yan said, “You’re working too hard this way.”
Xiaoxiao smiled. “Thank you for your concern, Little Big Brother Ah Yan, but cooking has never been difficult for me, especially when I see you guys eating happily. I am very satisfied.”
Yun Yi and the others were almost scared out of their wits by this title, but Rong Yan was stunned for a long time because of her words.
During the days when they were eating at the General’s residence, Uncle Gu once said to him, “The original intention of cooking is to hope that the person you like can eat happily. The happier she is, the more satisfied I will be.” He said, “This is called happiness.”
Did Ning Xiaoxiao also feel the same way when she cooked for him?
So she… liked him that much?
