Chapter 765 - Eaten Too Much Salt (1/2)
When the nanny brought Lin Qing in, Su Yunfei was still accompanying Rainy to watch cartoons. Before she could ask further, Rainy had already jumped off the couch herself and ran to Lin Qing while hugging her dolly.
“Did Brother come to find Rainy?”
“Mm, Brother’s here.” Lin Qing touched Rainy’s braids and had the urge to pull it, but he hurriedly retracted his hand and stood aside politely.
Su Yunfei knew that Lin Qing was the child that Xia Ruoxin wanted to adopt. Initially, it was two people, a pair of siblings; but her hometown relative had come to take the sister away, leaving the brother here. Jingtang had also mentioned it to her before. Originally, he wanted to bring both children back, but because Lin Qing’s school was further, he let him stay at the hostel first. When she thought about it, this was Su Yunfei’s first time seeing Lin Qing. It was not strange that she and her nanny did not recognize him.
Su Yunfei did not mind another kid in the house as her house was originally empty, and in the day, there was only her. Since her son would stay and eat at the office every day, she was lonely herself. Now that she had two children to accompany her, it was much better for her.
“Brother, did you come here to play with Rainy?” Rainy tugged Lin Qing’s sleeves and asked.
“Yes, I came here to play with you.” Lin Qing tugged her braids but harder this time as there was no one around.
Rainy frowned, but in the end, she still smiled lightly.
“Stupid.” Lin Qing pinched Rainy’s cheeks strongly, but Rainy still smiled the same way.
Ever since Lin Qing came, Su Yunfei felt that she no longer had anything to do. Lin Qing was a good brother and knew how to take care of his sister. He would help his sister wear clothes, feed her, and even do the chores. Also, she did not need to worry about his homework as he would do it on his own.
“Auntie Qi, I want some salt.” Lin Qing went into the kitchen and said to the nanny. There were two nannies in the Du family: one’s last name was Huang and was older, and the other was the Auntie Qi that Lin Qing was talking to now, who was not that old but was very deft in her work.
“Salt?” The nanny did not think much and directly took salt out from the cupboard. However, she still said, “Children should not eat that much salt, especially don’t give the young girl.”
“I know. Auntie and Uncle Chu said it before. I’m going to eat it myself.” Lin Qing answered, but something flashes in his eyes. The nanny even thought that she had cooked the dishes too blandly today.
Ever since the little missy came to the house, every meal they ate was much blander because the child could not eat salty food so she was used to putting less salt. However, when she put less salt, it was a bit bland at the start; but after eating a few times, they started liking the taste.
Perhaps she really did put too little salt in the food today. Indignantly, she went back and was going to try her own food to see if she really put too little salt.
Lin Qing took the salt bottle and scooped a big spoonful of salt before tasting it himself. He spat the rice out and brought the bowl out. At this time, Rainy was sitting on a stool while hugging the dolly in her arms and playing with it quietly.
“Eat.” He walked over, squatted down, and put the spoon by Rainy’s mouth.
She tried a little and shook her head.
“Brother, it’s not nice.”
Lin Qing fed another spoonful to her mouth. “If you don’t eat, your mother won’t come home; and next time, your father won’t come home. No one will love you anymore. You will become like me and Guo’er that no one loves or dotes on.”
