Chapter 258 - 251: Ate too many green balls
It’s not that green balls can’t be eaten in large quantities, but because they are made from fresh glutinous rice, eating too many can cause indigestion and bloating.
So, foods like green balls, mochi, and rice cakes, which are all made from glutinous rice, should be eaten in moderation to avoid stomach discomfort.
“Fine, fine, I won’t argue with you. I’ll go make her some aged orange peel tea, so she won’t suffer later.
An adult like me still can’t be reliable.” Mrs. Qin said as she went to the kitchen.
Qin Yu and Qin Jiale watched as their grandpa was scolded by their grandma.
“You heartless child, you’re still laughing. Because of you, your grandpa, at my age, is still being lectured by your grandma.” Mr. Qin lamented to his grandchildren by his side.
“Hehe, grandpa, you can’t blame us. If grandma speaks, how dare we interrupt?” Qin Jiale said, smiling at Mr. Qin.
“Well, that’s true, you don’t know how gentle your grandma was when she was young.
I don’t know why, but the older she gets, the more nagging she becomes.” Although Mr. Qin said this, his expression and eyes told a different story.
The siblings exchanged a glance, both muttering in their hearts, Qin men must he wife-doting demons.
After Qin Jiale’s inner snark, she wondered what her brother would be like when he had a wife.
But according to their family tradition, her brother would definitely be a man who dotes on his wife.
Being a woman in the Qins was truly a blessing, because they all had a man who loved them deeply.
“Jiale, come and drink this cup of aged orange peel tea.” Mrs. Qin brought a cup of digestive tea and said to Qin Jiale.
“Thank you, grandma. You’re the best to me.” Qin Jiale hugged Mrs. Qin’s arm, shaking it and acting adorable.
“Hey, stop shaking! You’re making the tea spill.” Mrs. Qin looked at her teacup and then at her overly cute granddaughter, trying to stop her.
Qin Jiale stuck out her tongue, just remembering she was overly adorable.
She quickly took the tea cup from Mrs. Qin, blew on the digestive tea, and began to drink slowly.
She had indeed eaten too many green balls just now. No matter how delicious they were, she shouldn’t have been so greedy.
Since her family wasn’t very wealthy, they didn’t eat well regularly; her stomach had little oil and water, yet she had consumed so many hard-to-digest green balls.
If she didn’t drink this digestive tea, she wouldn’t get a wink of sleep tonight.
Mrs. Qin, seeing her granddaughter’s obedient actions, couldn’t bear to scold her further and shook her head.
She picked up the flower tea on the table, poured a cup for her husband, and handed it to him.
Shulan just told me that she and Xiao Yu will go to the army compound to see Qin Xue tomorrow. Jiale is going to school, so we don’t need to worry too much about her.
As for Thunder’s meals, we can cook and let him come over for each meal, or we can cook together here. What do you think?” Mrs. Qin asked her husband for his opinion.
“Let’s cook at our place and have Thunder come over to eat. It’s more convenient at our home.” Mr. Qin preferred their own home for convenience.
“Alright, we’ll follow your suggestion.” Mrs. Qin thought similarly.
Xiao Yu, you go with your mother to the army compound tomorrow. If something happens outside, be patient and don’t argue with others. After all, it’s not like being at home, so try to avoid any trouble if you can.
Of course, if someone goes too far, you don’t need to endure it—do what you have to do, understood?” Mr. Qin sternly advised.
“I understand, grandpa. Don’t worry, I’ll be patient and avoid causing trouble.” Qin Yu was only relaxed and showed his true self when he was with his family.
At other times, he was calm and collected. His motto was, “If others do not offend me, I do not offend others.. If others offend me, I will retaliate!”
