Dad's Pastoral Life

Chapter 471
When Cheng He got home, he parked the car, and Cheng Xinxin rushed over like flying, yelling "Dad, Dad" from afar.

As soon as she saw her father get out of the car, she immediately threw herself on his lap, begging for a hug, acting like a baby.

Cheng He hugged her, plucked the hair beside her eyes, and asked her: "Did you listen to your mother these days? Be good or not?"

Cheng Xinxin nodded obediently, and then asked, "Father, you haven't been back for four days!"

"Four days? Not three days?" Cheng He asked her back.

Cheng Xinxin counted with her fingers and said, "That's four days."

Cheng He said: "Didn't you come back today? How can it be counted as four days?"

"Then..." Cheng Xinxin thought for a while, then changed her tune, "That's three and a half days. Dad, you haven't been back for three and a half days."

Seeing that the little girl was counting the days waiting for him, but it was not the first time to eat, Cheng He felt inexplicably warm, and said: "Okay, Dad won't go out these few days, and will be with you every day, okay? "

Cheng Xinxin nodded sharply.

Bai Qian also came out, seeing him holding the child as soon as he came back, and talking affectionately for a long time, she was able to interject at this time, chatting with him with a smile: "Look at you, hold her as soon as you come back, You've been busy for a few days, are you tired?"

As she said that, she stretched out her hand to pick up Cheng Xinxin, and said, "Okay, Xinxin, Dad has been busy for a few days before he comes back. Let Dad take a breath, okay?"

Cheng Xinxin said "No", but she didn't make a fuss, and didn't insist on letting her father hug her again.

Cheng He replied to Bai Qian: "It's okay, I'm not tired. The bidding will be really busy these days, but busyness also pays off."

To be honest, when it comes to presiding over big events like bidding, especially international ones, consortiums from various countries come here, and Liu Zhicheng is obviously more experienced.

From choosing a venue to serving a buffet, everything is handled properly, at least to satisfy the guests.Not to mention the little things like translation, accommodation, etc., all arranged seamlessly.

Presumably, he used to host such activities before, and he managed them with ease, and he hardly made Cheng He and the others worry.

For Liu Zhicheng, it was just right for him to give full play to his strengths in these aspects, at least he left a good impression on those general agents.

Bai Qian was of course happy when he heard that the bidding would go well.

Then, she put Cheng Xinxin down and went to help him organize the things in the car.I haven't come back for a few days, the changed clothes, the mess in the car, help him tidy up.

However, as soon as the car door was opened and she saw the gifts Cheng He bought for the two of them, she immediately smiled.This guy just closed the car door solemnly, pretending that he didn't bring a gift.

Sometimes, it's not about what the gift is, but whether there is a gift itself.Even just bringing a snack or a toy for the child can make her happy.

This shows that they are being missed.

Sometimes, women's brain circuits are so strange.

Bai Qian first took out a small cake and greeted Cheng Xinxin: "Come on, Xinxin, take a look at what Dad brought you?"

As soon as Cheng Xinxin saw the food, she immediately went over with a smile on her face, took the cake, and opened it to eat by herself.

In the past, whenever she had something to eat, she would think of her father first and let him take the first bite.Now, there is one more person. After Dad took the first bite, Mom took the second bite, and she took the third bite.

Whoever doesn't want to eat is in a hurry. If they are in a hurry, they stamp their feet on the spot and refuse to eat.

Now, as usual, she dug a piece with a spoon, walked towards Cheng He, and said sweetly, "Dad, try it."

According to the old rules, Cheng He quickly rubbed down, caught it with his mouth, and said while eating, "Thank you, baby. It's delicious."

Cheng Xinxin smiled sweetly, and said in a milky voice, "You're welcome."

Then, in the same way, she fed Bai Qian another bite, and it was her turn to eat by herself.

Sometimes, Cheng He didn't ask her to do these things, let alone Bai Qian taught her, she would just do it herself, I don't know how she learned it.

Bai Qian took a bite of her small cake and continued to tidy up the car, packing up Cheng He's clothes, shopping, some documents, etc. for the past few days, and took them out.

Cheng He said: "No hurry, it's okay to do it slowly, and I don't have to go out these days."

Bai Qian kept on talking, and said, "There's no rush, I'll tidy it up for you, the environment in the car will be better, and you will feel more comfortable driving."

Of course, seeing the little gift Cheng He bought for her, she was naturally happy.

In terms of material things, she can be said to be short of everything, such as platinum necklaces, diamond rings, designer bags, etc., I don’t know how much she has since she was a child. Even now, she has no shortage of money in her hands, and Cheng He will not limit her spending. It is sold, so I don't care about these vulgar things at all, what is rare is that they are remembered.

When she saw a hairpin that Cheng He bought for herself, she couldn't help but smile, and thought to herself: Who still wears such outdated things now?The eyes of men choosing accessories are terrible!
Even so, she was very happy to put it on her hair, and then asked him: "What do you think?"

She thought, if he dared to say that he looked good, he must be blind.

Cheng He saw that she was secretly beautiful, so he also asked her with a smile: "Xiaoqian, how did you and Xinxin survive the few days I was away?"

These few days, Cheng He has been busy during the day and night. The foreigners who come here are all jet-lagged, and they almost don’t need to sleep at night. They either continue to ask questions about Su Lanzi, or they go here and there to have fun.

Although he is not the main receptionist, he has almost no idle time.

Therefore, when I called back these days, I just chatted in a hurry and didn't talk about the details—Cheng He was very curious. The cooking skills that Bai Qian has learned now are boiled white noodles, boiled whole eggs, and some fried vegetables. That's all.

Did she support Cheng Xinxin just by relying on these things?

Bai Qian was fiddling with the new card in one hand, and holding the messy things in the car in the other. She was in a good mood, but when she heard Cheng He's slightly sarcastic question, she gritted her teeth angrily.

This guy will use his cooking skills to ridicule himself!Wait for me someday...

Bai Qian stared at him, thinking fiercely, but what will happen someday?I'm afraid that I won't be able to turn around my culinary skills in my life, how annoying.

While eating the cake, Cheng Xinxin ran over to her father, leaned on her body, and said, "Grandma Jinhua brought us food every day..."

She already understood some grown-ups' words, and when she heard her father ask, she took the initiative to answer.

Grandma Jinhua is Cheng Shi's mother.Since there are quite a few people of Chengshi's mother's generation in the village, they are called by their first names and titles to distinguish them.

Bai Qian said very embarrassedly: "On the first day you left, I was busy in the kitchen. I planned to make egg noodles for us to eat. Cheng Shi's mother asked us to go to their house to eat. You said, why am I so embarrassed? Refused……"

The more she talked, the more embarrassed she became. Although she refused that day, she was busy with noodles in the kitchen, and Cheng Shi's mother brought the dishes.

Cheng Shi's mother knew that she was not good at cooking, and she was too embarrassed to go to other people's houses to eat every day, so she brought them here.She also told Bai Qian not to worry about it, it was just a little home cooking.

Fish, fried chicken nuggets, drunken duck, these "home-cooked dishes", it can be seen that they have actually taken a lot of effort.

Cheng He knew for a long time that Cheng Shi's family was really good to his family. Before Bai Qian didn't come back, he took care of Cheng Xinxin for him.

Therefore, it is indeed worthwhile for him to help Cheng Shi invest and contract the mountain.If others are worthy of him, he is willing to be worthy of others.

Bai Qian put away the things at hand, came to sit with Cheng He, and said solemnly: "Let me tell you, I want to learn how to cook, I must learn how to cook."

In the past few days, Cheng He was not at home, and she deeply felt the importance of cooking.In the past, learning to cook was just learning to help.

For example, washing vegetables, cutting vegetables, peeling green onions, and doing some simple, but important processes are all done by Cheng He, so although she has learned it, she can't know any dishes.

This is not possible, the progress is too slow.

Cheng He looked at her, grabbed her chin, and said, "Okay, the disciples of the church will starve to death, Master, I admit it, and I will definitely train you to become a generation of chefs in the future. Even if I am not at home, you can still treat you and me children to feed."

Bai Qian was depressed, and was also amused by what he said.

After resting for a while, Cheng He said, "Let's go, get some food. I'll teach you how to cook tonight."

"I don't want to wash and chop vegetables anymore, I want to learn how to cook." Bai Qian bargained.

"Okay, no problem, as long as I don't hate eating what you cook, I can bear it." Cheng He looked at his daughter and said.This little guy's appetite has long been nurtured!
Cheng Xinxin ate her little cake comfortably, completely ignoring what the adults were saying, as long as there was something to eat anyway.

After eating, some children outside called her to play together, and she ran out immediately.

Cheng He asked from behind: "Xinxin, Dad is going to get vegetables now..."

Tell her, in case she comes back in a while and doesn't see myself looking around.

Cheng Xinxin let out an "oh", and ran without looking back.

Cheng He picked up a bamboo basket and a shovel and went to the field to get vegetables.The taro is almost ready to eat, and this is the first meal of the year.

Bai Qian also put on her hat and followed him.

Outside, Cheng Xinxin and a few kids who were about the same age were playing under a tree, maybe they were playing marbles, maybe they were playing cards, they were very devoted to it.

Children at such a young age almost regard the clothes they wear as rags, sit on the ground, lean on trees, climb trees, etc., and don't care if they are dirty or not.

Cheng He called out from a distance: "Xinxin, you just play here, don't run around, you know?"

"Okay." Cheng Xinxin heard it, and answered crisply, without even raising her head, having fun with her friends.
