Chapter 230: Only Managed to Hold in a Fart (3)_1
"I just ate! There’s still plenty at home!" Lady Zou urged them to eat, took her son in her arms, and let Pei Qin enjoy some melon.
The little guy was about to turn five months old, and at home during meals, they would always dip a chopstick in some mushy food to feed him. As soon as he saw food being brought out, he would excitedly reach out his little hands wanting some, and whoever pretended to bring their hand to his mouth, even without feeding him anything, he would immediately pucker up, ready to eat, and everyone enjoyed teasing him.
Lady Zou held him and stood under the eaves, looking at the sweet potato vines in the yard, "They are growing so vigorously! Can these things really cover several acres?"
"We can only start with a small area to try it out, after all, it’s the first year and we’ve never planted these before." Pei Qin, munching on a melon, came out and wiped a bit of the melon juice on little Xingwang’s face, and the little guy was happily smacking his lips.
Lady Zou nodded, her mind turning to Young Master Shen, who had made a long journey to find Pei Qin. She became more and more convinced that Pei Qin’s future was bright and upward. Even if her brother waited three years for her, it probably wouldn’t pan out. She decided to go back and persuade her brother; he wasn’t getting any younger and it was time to settle down. She turned her head to bid farewell to Pei Qin, saying it was time to get back and prepare lunch. Looking at her, with glossy black hair neatly tied at the top of her head, wearing a pale, ivory-colored shirt embroidered with water grass pattern, and her fair, youthful face, she thought to herself that the girl was just beginning to bloom. In another year or two... who knows what kind of family would be worthy of Xiao Pei!
As Lady Zou was about to leave, she heard Feng Bo arriving outside, "I said I’d bring you vegetables a few days ago, but these past few days have been so busy with the wheat harvest that I couldn’t find the time. I finally managed to squeeze out half a day, so I hurried over with the vegetables for you!"
With the experience of an older sister and her thoughts lingering on her brother’s situation, she noticed that as soon as he entered the door, his gaze kept circling Pei Qin, his eyes revealing a flicker of interest. Was this Xiao Pei’s aunt’s family hoping to marry into their family or something!?
At this time Feng Bo came over; it was almost noon and he was delivering vegetables for her and her brother, which certainly meant he was planning to stay for a meal.
