Chapter 391: Chapter 391: The Needle Against the Wheat, Sisi from the private school busily investigates
“You’ve got that wrong. Today, I’m all in for this meal!”
Right as Liu Sisi was stepping into the kitchen of the Liu family through the side door, she paused upon hearing this and turned around with a radiant smile.
“Not only am I going to eat, but I’m also going to eat my fill. Furthermore, I’m also planning to take away a generous portion!”
“You, you…You are so shameless…”
Liu Quan, pointing at her nose, was so angry that he was lost for words.

“How am I shameless? I’m eating my Mom’s home-cooked food. Is it because you think that Sisi can’t eat much and that’s making you upset? Lord Father, rest assured! Not only is Sisi going to eat, but she’s also brought your favorite son-in-law to eat together.”
Father and daughter were in a showdown: “You don’t want me to eat, so I’m going to eat. You don’t let me in, so I’m going to come in anyway. I’ll eat you out of house and home, let’s see what you’ll do then.”
With that, she held her head high and went directly into the kitchen to help.
The left-behind Liu Quan, his mouth wide open, shaking his outstretched finger in disbelief, finally lowered his arm after a while.
Upon turning around, he came face-to-face with the father and son, who were sitting leisurely on the other side of the room, enjoying the drama.
YingEr was eating her Fried Dough Twist, which was crispy and delicious, and she loved it. When she looked up and saw Liu Quan looking at her, she instinctively thought that Liu Quan wanted some too.
She took a Fried Dough Twist from the fruit plate, reached out and said, “Here, try this! It’s so crispy and delicious! You can have a taste too.”
At the sweet and innocent sound of her voice, Liu Quan was caught off guard.
Seeing that he didn’t respond, YingEr picked up the Fried Dough Twist, took two steps forward, grabbed his hand, and stuffed it in.
“Grandfather, please have a taste! Grandfather always praises YingEr, saying that anything YingEr offers is especially delicious!”
Liu Quan’s eyes widened as he stared at YingEr, speechless.
“YingEr, come back quickly!”
The nervous Di Xuan came forward and protected YingEr behind him.
The movement made Di Yelei’s muscles tense, and even his hand instinctively grasped the back of the chair, leaning forward, ready to rush forward at any moment.
However, YingEr was oblivious to all this. She still smiled sweetly, “Grandfather, you must hurry up and eat! If you wait any longer, it will be lunchtime. Mom says, we are not allowed to eat snacks during lunch, otherwise, we’re not good kids.”
After saying that, she sweetly smiled at him again, and then trotted back to the fruit plate to pick out more treats.
Liu Quan looked down at the Fried Dough Twist given by YingEr, and as if a kitten had taken away his tongue, he didn’t say anything for a long time.
“What’s so delicious about this, cough cough! These are all snacks, and eating too many of them will damage the teeth.”
He said this very seriously, then lifted his hand and put the Fried Dough Twist into his mouth, slowly chewing it.
It seemed as if the Fried Dough Twist had a special flavor, it was incredibly delicious!
The crisis was over, and Di Yelei sat back down in his chair, appearing more relaxed.
Liu Quan glanced at him and evaluated him from top to bottom. The more he looked, the more worried he became: “You are Di Yelei? The one who is notorious for causing his mother and wife’s death in the Upper Village?”
Di Yelei’s eyes narrowed almost imperceptibly, then relaxed again. He stood up and bowed to Liu Quan.
“Son-in-law pays respects to Lord Father-in-law.”
Liu Quan coldly snorted, “Don’t you go around claiming relatives. I, Liu Quan, have not had a wedding recently, I dare not have a good son-in-law like you!”
So his tone was blaming him for not coming back after getting married? Di Yelei found this secretly amusing.
What a difficult person!
He bowed again respectfully, “After I got married with Sisi, she was suffering from continuous high fever, which led to the loss of her past memories. Many things happened afterwards, only until today was I able to bring Sisi back for a visit. I hope you can forgive us, Lord Father-in-law.”
“Hmph! Only now you know you were wrong?”
Liu Quan didn’t show any good face, as he sternly stared at him, “How are you playing the role of a husband? How could you let her suffer from unending fever that even damaged her brain?”
Talking about this, Di Yelei also had a pained expression, “This matter, ah, it’s a long story…”
Putting aside the conversation between the two men, Liu Sisi had entered the kitchen. Ms. Yao was busy preparing food by the stove. Liu Zhi’er was busy helping out, closely followed by Da Mao, who was like a shadow or a small tail.
Seeing Liu Sisi coming in, Ms. Yao urgently called her, “Why are you here too? Go back to the hall and rest. Your body is important; be careful you don’t slip on the kitchen floor.”
“It’s okay, I just came to chat with you.” Liu Sisi laughed lightly and walked to the stove to help add firewood.
Unlike the Di Family, who had plenty of firewood and warm heating, Liu’s house was definitely colder in comparison. Sitting by the stove was actually much warmer.
She quickly changed the topic “Mom, can you tell me about my past? After I got married into the Di Family, I had a severe fever and almost forgot everything about my past.”
“You don’t remember anything at all? I thought… I thought you were just kidding…” Ms. Yao’s tears started flowing instantly.
“Mom! We just got together as a mother daughter trio after so long. You need to stop crying quickly.”
Liu Zhi’er was anxious to console Ms. Yao.
Narrowing her eyes, Ms. Yao said through her tears, “I seem to have gotten some dust in my eyes. Speaking of the past, I have to mention this kitchen.” Ms. Yao laughed through her tears, “I remember you used to dislike staying in the kitchen because of the smoky oil fumes. I didn’t expect that after you got married, you’d become more understanding…”
“And besides being interested in embroidery, the only other thing you used to be interested in was secretly listening to the classes conducted in Wu Family’s school.” Liu Zhi’er jumped in excitedly and continued the conversation.
“Oh, what school? Is there a school nearby?” Liu Sisi was interested in this.
“The school is a private one, it’s right next to the Ancestral Hall of Liu Family’s Mansion. The teacher is Mr. Wu, so everyone calls it ‘School of Wu Family.’”
Ms. Yao explained in detail, “Teacher Wu would give a day off from school every 1st and 15th day of the Lunar month—two morning classes and one afternoon class. Except for holidays and busy farming periods, he teaches our Liu Village children tirelessly all year round.”
Such a conversation made Liu Sisi suddenly interested, she was eager to try, “Where is this private school? I want to go and see.”
“This wild girl, you still haven’t changed your curious nature even though you’ve lost your past memories. Think for a moment, the school is on break for Spring Festival right now, there’s no one in the classrooms. What could you possibly see there?” Ms. Yao shook her head with amusement.
That’s right! It’s currently New Year’s and all schools are on summer break!
Liu Sisi patted on her forehead regretfully, as she realized she had made an impulsive comment!
She playfully stuck out her tongue, “I was just being curious, forgot that it’s New Year. Mom, tell me what else I liked back then. Please tell me more.”
“Sure, sure, we do have time, let’s chat.”
Ms. Yao heartily laughed!
