[Someone go block Yan Jin’s brain. She analyzed it wrong from the start!!] [Even I, a chronically oblivious person, can tell that Yu Shu’s delight was because their fingers touched. How could Yan Jin misunderstand it like that!] [I thought Yan Jin’s reaction would be: Yu Shu is so cute, I want to be with him. But her actual reaction is: I don’t treat Yu Shu well, yet Yu Shu still likes me. Yu Shu has Stockholm syndrome.]

Most of the roasted whole lamb ended up in their stomachs before they stopped to take a break, sitting in the courtyard and drinking hawthorn tea to aid digestion.

“Although the roasted whole lamb is delicious, eating just meat is still a bit greasy.” Yan Jin lowered her head and took a sip of hawthorn tea.

“It’s my oversight.” Yu Shu, who was in charge of ordering the food, conducted a self-reflection. “I usually strictly control my intake of such meat dishes, so I’m not very clear on how big a whole roasted lamb is. I thought with the three of us, we could easily finish it, so I didn’t get the portions right and forgot to buy some vegetables and fruits.”

“How can this be blamed on you?” Yan Jin shook her head. “I was right next to you when you ordered the food. I also missed this point.”

“There’s still so much lamb left, but I’m already stuffed.” Yan Jin nudged Yu Shu with her elbow. “Classmate Yuan Yuan, can you finish the rest of the roasted whole lamb?”

Yu Shu sighed deeply. “I really want to beat my chest and guarantee that I can definitely finish it, but I dare not overestimate myself. There’s really too much, I can’t finish it all.”

“We’ve already eaten most of it, so it’s not good to go out and share it with the neighbors. It’s even worse to share it with beggars, lest we reveal our wealth and attract bad people.” The more Yan Jin analyzed, the more distressed she became. “Let’s drink some more hawthorn tea. Once we’ve rested enough, let’s continue tackling it.”

Although she was a carnivore, eating so much meat at once without any vegetables or fruits to balance it out was really unbearable.

Yu Shu nodded with a slight grimace. “That’s all we can do.”

In the end, Yu Shu also lamented, “If only there was a refrigerator here. If we can’t finish it, we could just stuff it in the fridge. We wouldn’t have to worry about it spoiling.”

“If only this was winter in the north.” Yan Jin also lamented. “Leftover food wouldn’t even need to be put in the fridge. It could be directly left outdoors for refrigeration and preservation.”

After saying that, Yan Jin and Yu Shu looked at each other and both sighed.

Transmigration is so troublesome.

[From the moment they only ordered roasted whole lamb without any vegetables or fruits, I predicted this outcome.] [When I first saw the roasted whole lamb, I was drooling profusely; now seeing this scene, I’m also shedding tears profusely, but these are tears from laughter.] [I found that for the childish things they’ve done, the other person has always been indirectly or directly involved.]

Guo Bao Rou rubbed her round belly and sighed.

“What are you sighing about, child?” Yu Shu glanced at her. “Be careful. Sigh too much and you’ll turn into a little old lady.”

Guo Bao Rou, who was about to imitate the adults sighing before discussing important matters after seeing them do so from outside, quietly put down her little meaty paw.

How come Dad’s reaction is different from others?!

Shouldn’t Dad show concern all over his face, come up to her to ask if she’s cold or hungry, and ask her why she’s sighing?!

How could he scare her by saying she’ll turn into a little old lady if she sighs frequently?

“It’s not as serious as you say.” Seeing Guo Bao Rou shrinking her neck after being scared by Yu Shu, Yan Jin “kindly” came to the rescue. “Guo Bao Rou is so cute. Even if she turns into a little old lady, she’ll be the cutest little old lady in the world.”

The delight of having Mom speak up for her instantly froze on Guo Bao Rou’s face.

How come Mom is as mean as Dad? Isn’t she their little darling?

[You two are starting to team up and bully the child again (pointing fingers).] [I feel these two are really not fit to have children. Other people treat children: like treasures. They treat children: this toy is so fun to play with.]

Guo Bao Rou pounced into Yan Jin’s arms and wailed theatrically, “Mom, Dad, am I not your little darling, your heart and soul, your apple of the eye anymore?”

“Can’t you just be a person?” Yan Jin was puzzled. “If we treat you as edible body parts, that would be too scary.”

Yu Shu: “…”

Guo Bao Rou: “…”

“Dad, you’ve had it tough.” Guo Bao Rou patted Yu Shu’s shoulder like a little adult. “Although everyone says it was Dad who fell in love with Mom at first sight, I think Mom must have gone to great lengths to trick you into marrying her back then.”

Yu Shu held back his laughter and nodded. “Our Guo Bao Rou is indeed clever.”
