"Aria, do you miss your dad?" Mrs. Lee smiled and interrupted the memories in Aria's mind.
Aria nodded when she heard Mrs. Lee's words. "I miss Daddy, I miss Daddy very much!"
She really missed her father. She had not seen him for many years.
Because her father had passed away a long time ago.
So now that she was reborn as a child, the happiest thing was that she could see her father again!
Wendy was shocked when she heard her daughter's answer. Her husband had always had a bad temper and looked very serious. He had always frightened Aria. Now, Aria said that she missed her father.
It seemed that her daughter had grown up and was sensible.
Wendy was gratified when she thought of this.
"By the way, did her aunt not come to visit during this period?" Mrs. Lee remembered this matter.
Aunt...
Aria couldn't help but frown.
Wendy smiled bitterly at Mrs. Lee and said, "She said that she still has her own child to take care of. How could she have the time to take care of me and my children?"
Mrs. Lee shook her head when she heard this. "She's becoming more and more inhumane. Aria's grandmother had gone early. She should be here to take care of you. Why is she now..."
"Forget it. I'm already used to it. I can't force her." Wendy said, "What she said makes sense. William is still young and needs her to take care of him."
"William is already in primary school. What else does she need to take care of?" The more Mrs. Lee thought about it, the angrier she got.
Aria was also angry at her aunt. Her aunt was just like that. She did not have any affection for her family at all. Other than returning to the Lewis Village during the New Year, she would not come back at all, let alone visit her and her brother. It was better not to have such an aunt.
"What's wrong with Aria? Are you pouting and unhappy?" Mrs. Lee found it very funny to see Aria pouting.
Aria looked at Mrs. Lee and then at her mother. "I hate Aunt!"
Mrs. Lee and Wendy were stunned.
Wendy looked at her daughter and said helplessly, "What did you say? She's an elder. How can you hate her?"
Aria pursed her lips and didn't speak.
Mrs. Lee smiled and pulled Aria into her arms. She said, "Aria must be concerned about you. Moreover, children are the worst at hiding their thoughts. An aunt like that is indeed annoyed!"
Aria nodded in agreement when she heard Mrs. Lee's words.
Looking at her daughter's expression, Wendy couldn't help but smile. "You..."
After that, Mrs. Lee stayed to talk to Wendy for a while before she went back to her house.
Only Wendy, Aria, and the baby who had fallen asleep were left in the room.
Aria looked at the clock on the wall. Unknowingly, it was already past four o'clock.
"Mom, what do you want to eat? I'll cook for you." Aria said.
Wendy laughed when she heard her daughter's words. "What are you talking about? Isn't this the opposite? What do you want to eat? I will make it for you."
A five-year-old child said that she wanted to cook. This was a little too ridiculous.
However, Aria's expression was exceptionally serious. "Mom, I know how to cook. I've seen you cook. Let me do it."
"Don't talk nonsense. You're only five years old." Wendy reached out her hand and gently tapped Aria's forehead. "Alright, you stay here and look after your brother. I'll go and cook."
Wendy wanted to get out of bed to prepare dinner.
However, just as she lifted the blanket, Aria pulled her back and refused to let her get off the bed.
"Aria, listen to me. Don't mess around!" Wendy wanted to pry her daughter's hand away.
Aria quickly said, "Mom, I beg you. Please let me try once. I really want to try. I know how to do it!"
However, how could Wendy believe that her daughter could cook? Moreover, she would never let a five-year-old child cook. What kind of mother would she become?
"Mom, how about this? At most, you can just watch from the side, okay?" Aria pleaded, "Let me try, Mom..."
Seeing her daughter's insistence, Wendy was helpless. In the end, she could only compromise and say, "Alright, you can play if you want. I'll watch from the side."
Wendy didn't think that her daughter could cook. She only thought that her daughter wanted to play. However, if she wanted to play, she could do it once. Nothing would happen if she just watched from the side.
Aria looked at Wendy and knew that she still didn't believe her, but it was normal. Although the children in the countryside were sensible, they were only able to wash the pots and pans. They wouldn't cook until they were 15 or 16 years old. She was only five years old.
Therefore, it would be strange if her mother allowed her to do it directly.
However, this time, she wanted to let her mother know that her daughter was a genius now!
Alright, Aria had already given herself a rather cheeky title because she had lived a few more years.
Aria got off the bed and ran to the kitchen in her slippers.
Wendy followed behind her daughter.
The kitchen was the room where Aria had just woken up. There was a stove on the side of the door. There were some eggs in the basket and some fresh vegetables that had just been picked from the vegetable field in their yard.
Their family was really poor when they were young... Her mother had just given birth and needed nutrition, but there was no meat in the kitchen. The only nutrition was eggs.
"Alright, then I'll make fried vegetables with eggs."
Aria took a clean bowl and two eggs. Then, she quickly beat the eggs into the bowl and scattered them.
She opened the ventilation cover under the coal stove and saw that the flames were burning. Then, she put the pan on the stove with some effort and poured some oil into the pan.
There were no onions, ginger, or garlic, so she gave up the side dish. After the oil was heated, she poured the eggs in and quickly stirred them with a shovel. The eggs gradually turned golden and looked very tempting.
After that, she put the washed vegetables into the pan and stir-fried them a few times. Then, she took a plate. Because the pan was too heavy and difficult to carry, Aria used the shovel to pull the stir-fried vegetables along the edge of the pan onto the plate.
Wendy was dumbfounded.
