"It wasn't until this moment that Liu Sisi had some free time, so she cooked some more food and called the children out to eat.
Di Yelei also came out and glanced up at the elderly Mr. Di's room.
\"Dad had a few drinks and went to bed early. Come and eat. Brother Zhang will be here later,\" Liu Sisi said while setting out bowls and chopsticks.
\"Zhang Peng is coming so late? It seems to be snowing outside again. Does he have something going on?\" Di Yelei said in surprise, picking up the bamboo chopsticks as he spoke.
Liu Sisi also sat down, picked up the bamboo chopsticks, and first served YingEr and Da Mao some food. Only then did she pick up her own bowl and quickly eat, taking advantage of the gaps between chewing to attend to the two children on either side of her.
Now that the New Year had passed, YingEr was already five years old and could feed herself, but Liu Sisi still liked to help her pick out some easy-to-chew meat and bones.
