Tang Dynasty: The pot is tied to the duck nest, the little rhinoceros is here!

At this moment, Xiao Sizi came up to Jiang Fan, rubbed his eyes,

In a childish voice, she said, "Brother, my tummy is hungry! When is it time for dinner?"

"You can eat anytime, but don't you need to catch up on sleep right now?"

"Weren't you all ready to go to sleep when your brother left last night? Why didn't you sleep a wink all night?"

"Because last night my mom and I watched GG Bond together, GG Bond is so awesome... hahaha—"

Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Sizi started yawning repeatedly, and his big, bright eyes lost their sparkle.

After reading it, Jiang Fan smiled and said, "It looks like you and your mother won't be able to go to the hospital today."

Go wash your face first, then eat, and then take a nap...

"No need, I'm not...yawning—sleepy at all."

Jiang Fan: "..." Si Zi, now all you have left is your stubbornness, huh?

You've been yawning non-stop and aren't sleepy at all? How much of a face-saving person do you have to say something like that?

Empress Zhangsun then came out of the bathroom.

Looking at Jiang Fan, she said somewhat embarrassedly, "Jiang Fan, do you... have any face powder?"

"Well... I really don't have any, because I never wear makeup. But Lizhi's room should have some, Auntie, why don't you go and take a look?"

A short while later, Empress Zhangsun came out of Li Lizhi's room, but the effect was not very obvious; she still had dark circles under her eyes.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Fan went straight to the car and took out his sunglasses.

When Empress Zhangsun put on her glasses, the black lenses immediately concealed her dark circles.

Looking in the mirror, Empress Zhangsun finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank goodness for this, otherwise my aunt would be too embarrassed to go out!"

"Auntie, don't you need to catch up on some sleep? You haven't slept all night, aren't you tired?"

"It's because Auntie was so engrossed in watching TV that she forgot to sleep. Let's go to the hospital, Auntie will be fine."

Seeing Empress Zhangsun's haggard appearance, Jiang Fan ultimately didn't dare to let her go to the hospital.

And then there's Little Sizi, who now has panda eyes, and his upper and lower eyelids are drooping.

Even so, she still mustered her strength to go to the hospital with me to see my grandfather.

After Jiang Fan turned off the TV, he said to Empress Zhangsun, "Auntie, why don't you take Sizi to catch up on some sleep?"

I'll make you breakfast. I'll call you when it's ready.

Staying up all night puts a lot of strain on your body!

"Well... okay, thank you for your hard work, Jiang Fan!"

"Auntie, you're too kind. You all go to sleep first, I'll go make dinner!"

Empress Zhangsun picked up the baby and went into the bedroom.

Jiang Fan went to the kitchen. As for Li Yuan in the hospital, he was being taken care of by nurses, so there was no need to worry.

To allow Empress Zhangsun and Xiao Sizi to rest more, Jiang Fan prepared to make some handmade noodles.

Although kneading and pressing dough takes time, it's perfect for Jiang Fan.

Without further ado, I took out a mixing bowl, added more than a pound of flour and purified water, and started kneading the dough.

……

An hour later, Jiang Fan arrived at the bedroom door and gently knocked.

"Clang, clang—"

Empress Zhangsun rubbed her sleepy eyes, put on her slippers, and opened the door from the inside.

After an hour's nap, Empress Zhangsun's mental state had noticeably improved.

However, Xiao Sizi was lying on the bed, fast asleep, and the knocking on the door couldn't disturb her sweet dreams.

"Auntie, dinner's ready. Let's eat first, then you can go back to sleep."

"Okay, I'll go wake up Sizi!"

"Okay, I'll go get the rice and wait for you..."

After saying that, Jiang Fan went back into the kitchen.

Empress Zhangsun came to the bedside and gently patted Xiao Sizi: "Get up and eat, Sizi!"

A soft call went unanswered; the creature didn't even change its sleeping position.

Little Sizi was sleeping soundly, but Empress Zhangsun, as his mother, naturally knew how to wake him up.

"Oh dear—Jiang Fan makes such delicious food, but it's not enough for Mother to eat alone."

Since Sizi can't be woken up, that's even better; no one will be fighting with Mother for food now..."

"(⊙o⊙) Hmm?"

Upon hearing this, the little girl suddenly opened her eyes the next second.

Although my eyes weren't focused, my brain was already forcibly turned on.

"Is it time for breakfast? Did Mother leave me a duck? My tummy is growling..."

Seeing this, Empress Zhangsun couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.

Sure enough, as soon as food is mentioned, even if Xiao Sizi is in a deep sleep, she will wake up immediately.

Xiao Sizi, who was still a little sleepy when she stepped out of the bedroom, suddenly perked up.

I sniffed hard and followed the aroma to the dining table:

"(⊙o⊙) Wow, it smells so good! What did you make for me, bro?"

After Jiang Fan placed the last dish on the table, he took off his apron, wiped his hands clean, and gently stroked Xiao Sizi's delicate nose with his finger, saying:

"Brother made you some handmade noodles, come and try them, see if they suit your taste!"

"Good duck, good duck! As long as it's made by the potter, I'll love it!"

Jiang Fan then picked up Xiao Sizi and put her in the baby high chair, then took out the bib he had prepared for Sizi and tied it on: "Come on, Sizi, have some noodles first!"

"Mmm, thank you so much, bro!"

After thanking him verbally, the little ox readily opened its mouth and sucked the noodles that Jiang Fan fed it into its mouth.

"Slurp—"

Little Sizi skillfully slurped the noodles directly into her mouth.

Silky smooth and soft yet surprisingly chewy, it leaves a lingering fragrance in your mouth after a gentle chew.

With the addition of braised tomatoes, the handmade noodles taste even better; the ones my brother makes are just as good as the ones I've had outside before.

"How's the roe deer? Is it delicious?"

"It smells so good, I want more..."

Empress Zhangsun was also infected by Xiao Sizi's eating habits, and her appetite was greatly aroused. She subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

The main reason is that Jiang Fan's hand-pulled noodles were excellent in color, aroma, and taste, far superior to those made by the chefs in the palace.

"Auntie, this bowl is for you, try it! There's also some cucumber salad and stir-fried potato shreds that I made over there!"

"Okay, Auntie will eat now. Jiang Fan, you should eat too. I'll feed Sizi!"

"I love being fed by my husband, the food he feeds me is so delicious, (^__^) hehe..."

Empress Zhangsun: "..."

"Brother, I can still eat a big bowl of rice! Come on, feed me!"

Then Jiang Fan and Xiao Sizi took turns feeding each other, and their long-term cooperation made them incredibly in sync.

Not a drop was wasted; even the soup in the bowl was drunk clean, as if it had been washed.

Jiang Fan held up the empty bowl and asked Si Zi, "How are you, Si Zi? Are you full?"
