Chapter 37: Money is meant to be spent!

“Boss, give us four bowls of vegetarian noodles!”

As he spoke, Di Yelei shouted to the busy stall owner without stopping.

“Alright! Four bowls of vegetarian noodles!” The stall owner repeated loudly, picking up the noodles skillfully.

Having been busy all morning, Liu Sisi was now tired and naturally sat down on a small stool.

“Mom—”

Di Ying, who was originally held by Di Yelei, looked at the busy owner with hopeful eyes and couldn’t help but put her little finger in her mouth…

“Don’t put your hand in your mouth, it’s dirty. Our Di Ying knows better, eating your hand will cause your stomach to hurt, do you understand?” Liu Sisi quickly pulled Di Ying’s little hand away.

“Hehe, Mom, YingEr wants a hug!” Di Ying said as she tried to break free from Di Yelei’s arms.

“Don’t move! Be careful not to get burned by the noodle soup.”

At this moment, the stall owner had already brought over a bowl of vegetarian noodles, and Di Yelei quickly pulled Di Ying’s little body aside to avoid getting burnt.

Di Ying shyly stuck out her little tongue.

“Here, customer, the vegetarian noodles are cooked! The other three bowls will be served shortly. Please take your time.” The boss quickly left.

Di Yelei pushed the first bowl of noodles forward: “Sisi, you eat first.”

Liu Sisi glanced at Di Ying and Di Xuan, who were obviously very hungry: “Let YingEr eat first, it’s just a short wait, I can wait a little longer.”

Di Yelei thought about it, and that made sense. So, he picked up the chopsticks and carefully blew on two strands of noodles to cool them before putting them into Di Ying’s mouth.

The bowl of vegetarian noodles was really just plain noodles, a bunch of wild vegetables placed at the bottom of the bowl, and the thoroughly cooked noodles were then swirled in the middle of the bowl. Chopped green onions and chili sauce were sprinkled on top, and a large bowl of vegetarian noodles was ready!

While Liu Sisi was looking, the remaining three bowls of vegetarian noodles were also served.

By this time, Di Yelei had already fed half a bowl of noodles to Di Ying!

Di Xuan, sitting next to them, was sensible and picked up his chopsticks to eat quickly. Although he was only a seven-year-old boy, he was very well-behaved, and his eating posture was quite elegant, showing that he had been well trained.

Looking at the large bowl of noodles in front of her, Liu Sisi couldn’t help but add more than half of it to Di Yelei’s bowl, and finally awkwardly stuck out her tongue, “There’s too much noodles, I can’t finish it.”

What she said was true. Her appetite was small, and she could only eat half a bowl of rice before feeling full!

“You need to eat more! Look at how thin you are.”

Di Yelei frowned and said, “With such a small frame, how can she endure my demands?”

It seemed he needed to work hard to strengthen her body more, so she wouldn’t faint when things got intense – that would be a total mood killer!

“There is already a lot, look, I still have a big bowl of noodles here.”

Liu Sisi naturally didn’t understand the lewd thoughts running through Yelei’s mind and stirred the noodles in her bowl with her bamboo chopsticks.
