Chapter 617: Chapter 617: The Most Delicious Cooked Dishes
Looking at the child who had gradually fallen asleep after his fever subsided, Di Yelei patted her shoulder.
“Don’t worry, this is not something you wanted to see, nor is it something you did intentionally. Besides, the child’s fever has already subsided, right? Stop blaming yourself and get some rest.”
Seeing her so worried, he figured she probably wouldn’t be able to sleep, so he suggested that she just close her eyes for a bit.
“No need. Generally, such a small child will have a fever again in four hours, and that is the most severe time. I’ll wait until that time is over before I sleep.” Liu Sisi stood up.
Having crouched for too long, her legs were already numb and had no feeling. She almost fell, but luckily, Di Yelei quickly caught her and pulled her into his arms, both concerned and reproachful.
“Look at how tired you are. Be good and go to sleep. I will take good care of the child. Are you afraid that I won’t take good care of him?”
Di Yelei was a bit angry.
Liu Sisi stubbornly shook her head and pushed away Di Yelei’s support: “This is not a matter of trust or distrust, but I am his mother, and when he is sick, it is natural for me to guard him.” As she spoke, she looked at the other child in the cradle: “Third Son has a fever, and this youngest one, who was born so thin and small, who knows…”
She went to her youngest son’s cradle and carefully picked him up.
Now, the three children had one cradle each, which was cool and comfortable, so they didn’t have to worry about the children getting too hot.
The little guy seemed to sense that someone was holding him, lazily opened one eye, saw it was Liu Sisi, and then closed his eyes again to sleep.
Feeling his little forehead and then testing his temperature with her own forehead, Liu Sisi was relieved to find that the seemingly weak little guy did not have a fever.
She let out a long sigh!
Neither of the two had the heart to sleep as both silently guarded their children without speaking.
Di Yelei looked up at the exhaustion in Liu Sisi’s eyes: “Are you hungry? Do you want me to have the kitchen cook something and send it up?”
Liu Sisi shook her head and nodded: “That would be good. Taking care of the children requires strength too. Just tell the kitchen to heat up whatever is left from this evening and send it up.”
Di Yelei left and returned after a while with a tray in his hand, containing two bowls of rice and a plate of vegetables.
“I saw that everyone in the kitchen was asleep, so I didn’t wake them up. I just made a plate of vegetables myself. Let’s make do with this.” As he spoke, he handed the bowl and chopsticks to Liu Sisi.
Was this dish actually stir-fried by Di Yelei?
Amazement filled Liu Sisi’s eyes!
Picking up the bowl, she suddenly realized how hungry she was. Slowly eating the rice and vegetables.
The rice is this year’s new rice, fragrant and delicious, while the vegetables are just ordinary sweet potato sprouts, apparently stir-fried with chicken oil, bringing together the unique flavor of chicken meat and the special fragrance of sweet potato sprouts. The taste is so sweet and delicious, something she has not tasted for a long time!
Di Yelei occasionally picked up some vegetables for her, and more than half of the small plate of sweet potato sprouts ended up in Liu Sisi’s stomach.
Liu Sisi also occasionally picked up some vegetables for Di Yelei. As their eyes met, a sweet warmth lingered between the two.
It took a while for the two to finish the small bowl of rice.
After putting down the bamboo chopsticks, Di Yelei couldn’t help teasing her: “Today, you ate especially slow.”
