Chapter 121 – Wanting to pee (4)
However, Li Man discovered that she felt full enough after eating one bowl of dough drop soup . She wasn’t used to eating too much at night . And so, she scooped out the remaining soup into a large bowl and brought it over to the eastern hut . Putting it down on a small table, she said, “There’s one more bowl of soup left . You guys should divide it amongst yourselves . The dough in the soup will get too soggy if you leave to tomorrow to eat, and it won’t taste good . ”
Little Five rubbed his stomach . He already felt way too full after having two bowls of soup .
The amount of food that Li Hua could eat wasn’t a lot . He wasn’t hungry either after eating two bowls of dough drop soup .
Li Yan was sick, so he didn’t have much of an appetite . He had only eating one bowl of soup and gave his second bowl to Li Shu .
Li Shu usually had a pretty good appetite, but after eating three bowls of soup, he balked at eating the large bowl of soup on the small table . “I’m full . ”
Advertisement“You’re all full?” Seeing that the large bowl of soup was going to become unappetizing soggy leftovers, Li Man felt distressed .
Li Mo looked at her and asked, “You only had one bowl of soup?”
“En, I ate a lot during lunch, so I wasn’t hungry at dinnertime, “Li Man said as she was about to pick up the bowl of soup and bring it back .
But, Li Mo stopped her . “I was worried there wouldn’t be enough . Since you’re all full, I’ll eat all of this then . ”
“Ah?” His brothers all looked at him .
Li Shu cried out, “Oldest brother, didn’t you say before that you were full? I’m feeling too full now because you didn’t want to eat any from second brother’s second bowl . ”
Li Mo didn’t answer him . Sitting on the side of the bed, he picked up the bowl and started to eat . He looked like he was enjoying the food so much that it really didn’t seem as if he was already full .
The corners of Li Yan’s eyes were twitching as he watched Li Mo, “Oldest brother, is it that tasty? Don’t eat to the point of getting a stomachache . ”
Li Mo didn’t say anything . He kept his head lowered as he ate with gusto . He really hadn’t eaten enough to be full . It was because he had seen there wasn’t much left in the pot before, and he wanted to leave behind more food for her . Third brother usually had a big appetite, so he had turned down second brother’s remaining share to his third brother . He just hadn’t expected that wife would eat so little . She had gotten full from eating only a small bowl of soup .
Moreover, he knew that wife would feel distressed if such a large bowl of soup went to waste .
Seeing how happily he was eating, the corners of Li Man’s lips slightly curved up . She liked to cook, and she liked it when people enjoyed her cooking . The more happily they ate her food, the more accomplished she felt .
Seeing the smile in Li Man’s eyes as she watched his oldest brother, Li Shu couldn’t help feeling a bit jealous . Oldest brother, how about leaving some for me to eat? I feel a bit a hungry too now . ”
“Third brother, don’t be so immature . ” Li Yan irritably looked at in Li Shu in askance .
Li Shu rubbed his stomach . His face wasn’t twitchy or red as he lied, “I really do feel a bit hungry . ”
“Alright, third brother, even if you feel hungry, you’ll have to wait until tomorrow morning . ” In a few bites, Li Mo finished the last piece of dough drop in the bowl .
Li Man clapped her hands . “Great . ” She stood up to take the bowl back .
“I’ll do it . ” Li Mo had already picked up the bowl and was one step before her in heading to the kitchen .
Li Man hurriedly followed after him . When she got to the kitchen, Li Mo was already scooping water into the pot . She said, “I can wash the pot and bowls myself .
She had washed the dishes with Little Five as well as Li Hua . That had seemed normal enough . But, Li Mo was a grown man . She felt it was a bit strange to see him by the stove .
“I’ll be done soon . ” Li Mo had finished adding water to the pot . He put the bowls and chopsticks into the pot, then he started washing them one by one with a dishcloth .
T/N: Aww, Li Mo is such a thoughtful older brother .
