Chapter 24: Sorrow of Parting
She asked just out of curiosity, wanting to understand the local people’s taste a little better.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Yun pondered for a moment, then his eyes lit up: “Third Aunt, naturally this clear soup is the most delicious! It’s neither too salty nor greasy, so tasty!”
The three people next to them also nodded their heads in agreement.
“This soup?”
Liu Sisi was also quite surprised!
The soup was simply boiled with clear water and then cooked with vegetable leaves. She thought that in a time where there was a lack of fatty and meaty dishes, it shouldn’t be that popular, but she did not expect…
“Yes, this soup you made is indeed the most delicious.”
Di Yelei also spoke up, it seems that he also has a particular fondness for this clear soup.
“Mom, the food you made is the best. YingEr’s stomach is so full, give me a rub, mom.” Little Ying beside her leaned directly on Liu Sisi’s thigh, her face full of sleepiness.
Liu Sisi laughed and gently lifted YingEr: “Oh my, our YingEr is too full, huh? You need to rest now, rubbing your belly after you are full could hurt your stomach, what are we going to do then? Remember to eat less next time, understand?”
“I know, mom.”
YingEr squinted her eyes on Liu Sisi’s arm, rubbed her eyes, and let out a big yawn on her shoulder: ” Mom, YingEr is so sleepy.”
“Are you sleepy, YingEr? How about you wash your hands and face, and then we’ll take a nap together?” Liu Sisi, of course, was willing to spoil her four-year-old child.

“Okay, but YingEr doesn’t want to move, mom help YingEr wash.” YingEr agreed with her mouth, but her body was still sprawled on Liu Sisi’s thigh, showing no sign of moving at all.
On the other side, Zhang Yun was saying goodbye to Di Yelei.
“Third Uncle Di, if I go back too late, my parents will be worried. Third Aunt, I’m going home first.” After saying that, Zhang Yun turned and was about to leave.
“Wait a moment, Zhang Yun.”
Liu Sisi gently picked up YingEr, swiftly walked a few steps, picked up a small bowl that was being warmed on the stove, and put it into the basket hanging next to the stove. The bowl contained some eel fillets and dried shrimps, which she had intentionally left aside when she was cooking: “I’m not a great cook, take these dishes to your parents and let them give some suggestions.”
Zhang Yun quickly declined: “Third Aunt, there’s no need for these dishes, I have already eaten at your place, if I take more…”
“Don’t our Xuan’er and YingEr often eat at your place? Why so polite? Hurry up and take it! This dish is best eaten while hot, if it gets cold it will smell fishy, it won’t taste as good.” Liu Sisi didn’t wait for him to refuse, and firmly handed the basket to Zhang Yun.
Di Yelei on the side was very happy, he could tell that Liu Sisi genuinely prepared the food for Zhang Peng’s family: “Just take it if your Third Aunt gives it to you, hurry home and ask your dad if he’s going hunting with me tonight.”
Only then did Zhang Yun accept: “Okay, Third Uncle Di, I’ll go home and ask my dad right now.” After that, he quickly hurried away.
“You’re going hunting in the mountains again?” Liu Sisi instinctively asked.
