Chapter 189
It was almost noon, and Qiao Chu went out to eat at the mutton soup stand that he often went to. The owner of the store saw Qiao Chu coming, and served a bowl of mutton soup graciously, and his ten-year-old daughter brought over two pancakes .

Qiao Chu said thank you, the little girl smiled in surprise, her chapped black and red lips grinned, revealing her white and neat teeth, and then ran away shyly.

Seeing that it was almost finished, Qiao Chu asked the shop owner to pack another portion, and prepared to take it back to Dongfang Shuyuan who was competing with him.

The shop owner filled a big soup pot with half a pot of mutton soup, and wrapped two pancakes in straw paper for Qiao Chu.

Seeing Qiao Chubai's tender little hands, the shop owner hesitated for a moment: "Caoya, you can bring the mutton soup home to this little lady before coming over."

The little girl agreed, picked up the basin bigger than her head, put the pancakes wrapped in straw paper in her arms, and walked up to Qiao Chu cheerfully.

"Elder sister, you lead the way. I'll send you there." Qiao Chu was infected by this little girl's smile, and couldn't help but miss Qiao Xiaofu.

My little niece always smiles like this, always smiling so cheerfully and kindly.

"Okay." Cao Ya had just walked a few steps, when a loud woman shouted and cursed: "Old Ge, are you secretly feeding pancakes to your short-lived niece again?!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? The little lady bought a lot of food. I thought she couldn't handle it, so I asked Cao Ya to deliver it to her home." The shop owner hurriedly explained, his tone full of resignation and forbearance.

Qiao Chu couldn't help but stopped and looked back, just in time to see the woman with her hips on her back who was cursing and the shop owner who was anxious to calm things down.

The store owner saw Qiao Chu looking over, and hurriedly cupped his hands to apologize: "Miss Chen, it has nothing to do with you, you just go home...Cao Ya, come back after delivery."

"Hey." Cao Ya agreed, and took two quick steps, closely following Qiao Chu's pace.

It seemed that she was afraid that the woman would take her back.

Qiao Chu was still surprised: Isn't this grass girl the daughter of the stall owner? !

When I got home, I changed the bowl of mutton soup to make room for the bowl, and Cao Ya was about to leave.

Qiao Chu stopped her, "Cao Ya, aren't you the daughter of Boss Ge?"

Cao Ya hesitated for a moment, shook her head, and smiled: "Big sister, no. I am Boss Ge's niece, and my father is his elder brother. My parents were killed when they fought two years ago. My uncle adopted me."

"Then... can you eat enough?" Qiao Chu remembered the woman's words.

Said that Boss Ge secretly ate pancakes for this grass girl? !

The pancakes are just full, and the taste is not necessarily delicious.

That is to say, this grass girl can't get enough to eat? !
Cao Ya smiled: "In this place, there are not many that can eat enough every day. My uncle has three children in his family, all of whom are younger than me. He runs a stall by himself and has to support the whole family. How can I have enough to eat?" ?”

Qiao Chu was surprised: "Then don't you complain?"

"What is there to complain about?" Cao Ya really laughed this time, "My uncle raised me to spend food, and my aunt also felt sorry for her children, worried that I would eat too much, her own children Just eat less, isn't that normal?"

"..." Qiao Chu didn't know what to say for a while.

For such a young child, his parents died and he was adopted by his uncle. He couldn't eat enough all day long, and he still had to work at a mutton soup stand.

Ordinarily, this kind of background seems to be very bitter, but she doesn't complain about others, on the contrary, she understands her uncle and aunt very well...

"You help at the mutton soup stand every day, but can you cook?" Qiao Chu remembered that every time he went to the mutton soup stand before, he would always see Cao Ya busy.

"Of course it will." Cao Ya nodded.

"Then are you willing to come to my house to do something? I'll pay you, just help me cook some meals, and you'll leave when you're done."

Qiao Chu wanted to help the child.

Cao Ya was stunned for a moment: "I... I have to help my uncle's stall every day."

"It's okay, you can help me cook some meals and wash clothes, and you don't need to be with me in the rest of the time." Qiao Chu explained.

"Then... I'll ask my uncle and aunt when I go back." Cao Ya hesitated for a moment, but didn't finish her sentence.

Qiao Chu couldn't help but sigh with emotion: It's just a ten-year-old girl, because she has dealt with people at the stall all year round, seeing that she is very mature and sensible in dealing with people.

Sure enough, life is the best teacher!
Dongfang Shuyuan was a little surprised when she saw the food that Qiao Chu packed for her: "I'm not hungry, what did you have for lunch?"

Qiao Chu pointed to the mutton soup and pancakes in front of him: "Eat this."

Dongfang Shuyuan was very guilty: "It's my fault, my mind is muddled, I forgot to cook."

"Why is it your fault? You owe me?" Qiao Chu laughed.

Dongfang Shuyuan was stunned for a moment: "But you don't know how to cook..."

"It's my business that I don't know how to cook, and you don't owe it to me. I don't know how to cook, I just figure out a way!" Qiao Chu continued to smile.

In fact, Qiao Chu is not picky. It is good to have delicious food, but if no one makes delicious food, she doesn't care if she eats something casual.

But Dongfang Shuyuan couldn't turn the corner. She looked at Qiao Chu for a while, and after making sure that Qiao Chu was not talking ironically, she looked down at the mutton soup in front of her in a daze.

"Although I don't know how to cook, I can't starve myself to death. I can always find a way to fill my stomach. I am not your responsibility. You have no obligation to cook for me."

Qiao Chu felt that she couldn't talk too much, if she talked too much, Dongfang Shuyuan's head would be dizzy again.

While Dongfang Shuyuan was eating dizzily, Qiao Chu went back to her room to sleep.

In the evening, Dongfang Shuyuan cooked a sumptuous dinner for just two people, but Dongfang Shuyuan made three dishes and one soup.

Qiao Chu was a little stunned when he saw the sumptuous dishes in front of him: "Why are there so many? What's wrong with you?"

Dongfang Shuyuan laughed, and then said seriously: "I think what you said is wrong."

"Ok?"

"You protected me. Without you, if I lived here alone, I would be eaten to the bone. It was because you wanted to come that I dared to come here with Ah Qiu."

"If only Ah Qiu came here alone, I wouldn't dare to follow him!"

"I cook for you, but you also provide such delicious vegetables and fruits, and you also do the daily shopping..."

"We need each other. You don't owe me anything, and I don't owe you anything." Dongfang Shuyuan said with a smile on her face.

Qiao Chu couldn't help laughing: After thinking about it all day, it's not bad to be able to understand this matter.

After all, knowing where your value is, this is a great progress.

So the two ate happily.

Unexpectedly, before the meal was finished, there was a knock on the door.

Qiao Chu went to open the door and found a man and a woman standing outside, both with flattering smiles on their faces.

It was Boss Ge and his wife...
