Zhou Xiaobao felt very aggrieved, he pouted and sulked. His feet were chewed by Gu Ye, but what did he just say? 

“What’s wrong?” 

Chu Qiao’s sleepy voice came from behind the curtain, Gu Ye became tense and he immediately said, “Nothing, Xiaobao accidentally poked his foot into my mouth, and it stinks so bad!”  

“Pfft.” 

Chu Qiao couldn’t help but laugh.

Xiaobao couldn’t stay still when sleeping. Not only did he like to sleep on his stomach like a frog, but he would also turn around at night. 

He was obviously sleeping in a normal position before going to bed, but in the morning, he would definitely be in reverse. 

So for his feet poked Gu Ye’s mouth, it was understandable. 

Hearing his own wife’s laugh, Gu Ye’s anger subsided.

He glared at Zhou Xiaobao and shouted, “Get up and brush your teeth, let’s go for a run later!” 

“Oh!” 

The two brothers quickly got out of the bed and washed up. The three of them went for a run, and Chu Qiao didn’t continue to sleep either.  

She got up to make breakfast. She especially bought red amaranth yesterday, she had promised to make amaranth pancakes for the two children. 

-Red spinach / Chinese spinach / yin choy / Amaranthus dubious / spleen amaranth

-Amaranth pancakes

After cooking some mung bean congee, she made a large plate of amaranth pancakes, which were piled high. Some of those were sent to Xuan Hongxia’s family. 

When she finished cooking, Gu Ye and the two brothers came back, covered in sweat. 

After taking a bath, they started to eat. 

The Dabao brothers, who had never eaten amaranth pancakes before, enjoyed the food with great relish and had an exceptionally good appetite. 

Gu Ye ate it even faster, he finished a large piece of pancake in just a few bites. 

“Auntie, will you still make amaranth pancakes tomorrow?” Zhou Xiaobao was still chewing the pancake in his mouth, so he was bulging and speaking in a muffled voice. 

“Swallow the food first before you speak.”  Chu Qiao softly said. 

Zhou Xiaobao obediently swallowed the food and asked again, this time he was speaking clearly. 

“In the future, when you’re speaking, you must finish the food in your mouth first. If you want to eat pancakes, I will definitely make them, but you should listen to me.” 

Chu Qiao’s voice was very gentle and understanding. But Xiaobao took it to heart, and felt a little ashamed.

He secretly made up his mind that he would not speak before he finished eating, so Auntie wouldn’t be displeased. 

“I will listen to Auntie, I will never do it again.” 

Zhou Xiaobao said loudly, and opened his mouth wide to let Chu Qiao see that he didn’t have any food in his mouth at all. 

“So good, I will make amaranth pancakes again tomorrow!” 

Chu Qiao patted the little guy’s head with satisfaction. 

It was really easy to take care of Dabao and Xiaobao, because they are sensible. Unlike the Gu Wen brothers, who were oblivious although he was already 4 to 6 years old. 

The brothers cheered and continued to eat the pancakes.

Chu Qiao looked towards Gu Ye and asked in a low voice, “What do you want to eat?” 

She wouldn’t just focus on the two younger ones, the older one also had to be taken care of too. 

“Everything you made is delicious, I like them all.” 

After saying that Gu Ye took a big bite of pancake, which was the size of his palm.

He ate half of it in one bite and then it was gone with another bite. 

“Is there anything you don’t like to eat?” Chu Qiao asked again. 

Dabao hurriedly said, “Uncle Gu doesn’t like Glutinous rice balls.” 

-Chinese Glutinous rice balls / Tang Yuan
It is a traditional Chinese dessert made of glutinous rice shaped into a ball that is served in a hot broth or syrup. They come in varying sizes, anything between a marble to a ping pong ball, and are sometimes stuffed with filling.

Gu Ye’s face changed slightly, he smiled and explained, “There’s nothing I don’t like to eat, I can eat it too.” 

Chu Qiao had some doubts in her heart, it seemed that this glutinous rice ball had some inside story. 

“Okay, is there anything that Dabao and Xiaobao don’t like to eat?” 

Chu Qiao changed the topic, she didn’t want to touch Gu Ye’s sad past. 

Obviously this man loved to eat glutinous rice snacks. 

Last time in the teahouse, she ordered glutinous rice snacks, and Gu Ye ate them with relish. 

Obviously he had a sweet tooth, how could it be possible for him to not like eating glutinous rice balls? 

There must be a sad story behind it, something that made him feel hurt, which made him not like to eat them, right?
