Chapter 60 - Joy Of Having Daughters
The ladies were sitting at the table with their eyes moist while they watched the scene in front of them.
Among them, Ning Wei had her eyes red but she had a broad smile on her lips as she gazed at her daughter.
To them, Little Jia seemed to be shocked and when happy with the circumstances but was unable to act as she was still in a daze.
The ladies heard Ye Qian's voice which was filled with love and care as he brought the dumpling to Little Jia.
"Come eat and tell me how is it?"
As the ladies watched tears formed in Little Jia's eyes and she bit a small bite from it and cried.
"It's tasty, Papa."
Hearing Little Jia calling him Papa, except Yuan Meng, both of them were shocked and had their eyes widened.
"Did she called him Papa?"
Ning Wie and Jiao mumbled.
Their voice was very low only Yuan Meng who was sitting in between them could hear them.
Yuan Meng smiled at Little Jia and mumbled.
"She has finally let go of her sadness."
Jiao and Ning Wei turned to her in confusion.
Yuan Meng consoled them as she continued.
"Little Jia asked Ye Qian if she could call him Papa, so Ye Qian agreed to it."
Then she recounted the incident that happened in the kitchen when Little Qiqi and Little Jia were helping her.
A tear rolled down Ning Wei's cheeks as she glanced at Ye Qian with a grateful look.
'He is so strong but still cares for small children's.'
'And he didn't even think that it would make others look at him in a weird way, he really is a god-like man.'
"Sister Wie, there is no need for you to think of this let them continue it will be good for Little Jia."
Yuan Meng urged as she thought that Ning Wie might get angry at Ye Qian.
"No there is no problem, it had always gripped my heart that I was never able to give Jia the love a father gives to his daughter, but now, I think this is best for her."
Ning Wie gave a grateful look to Yuan Meng, she knew if Yuan Meng had not accepted it, Ye Qian would most likely would have not continued.
Which woman would like her child to be compared with others in love?
But Yuan Meng was not at all displeased and was in fact convincing her to accept this.
"Let's continue eating or the food might turn cold."
Yuan Meng smiled and put a dumpling in her mouth.
Ning Wei and Jiao smiled at her and continued eating.

Meanwhile in front of them.
"Papa Jia, can't eat more dumplings."
Little Jia called out as she ate the dumpling in Ye Qian's hand.
"En? How can this be, look there is still soup and rice for you to eat."
"And look you have only eaten 10 or so dumplings, how can you eat so less?"
Ye Qian smiled as he tilted his head and pointer at her stomach.
Little Jia looked at her stomach in confusion.
Little Qiqi also peeked from the other chair to see what Ye Qian was pointing at.
"Look this is so flat, now can you say it is full."
Ye Qian asked as he opened the lid on the bowl and took some fried rice in it.
"But Papa it's really full."
Little Jia exclaimed as she rubbed her belly.
"Fufufu."
The ladies laughed at them as they continued.
Yuan Meng expressed.
"Little Jia wait for a while you will eat more."
"Huh?"
Little Jia, Ning Wie and Jiao glanced at her with a puzzled look.
"Papa, Qiqi also wants to eat Fried rice."
Little Qiqi poked Ye Qian as he brought the plate in front of Little Jia.
"Hmm."
Ye Qian nodded and took some fried rice into her plate.
"Here."
Taking a spoon full of rice, he brought it near Little Qiqi's mouth.
She had her maw open all the time and quickly ate it.
After Little Qiiq ate a few bites of rice, Little Jia who was sitting silently felt empty in her stomach and mumbled.
"Huh, why do I feel hungry again?"
Hearing her Ye Qian smiled and turned to her and took a spoon of rice and brought it to her mouth.
"Here now you are feeling hungry right."
"Hmm."
Little Jia nodded and opened her mouth as she continued to eat.
Ning Wei was astonished.
'Huh, a few minutes ago she said she was full now she is hungry, is this because of the food that Jiao talked about?'
Ning Wei thought as she glanced at the dumpling she held in her fingers.
Meanwhile, Ye Qian emptied another round of plated full of rice while he fed Little Qiqi and Little Jia.
Ning Wei was shocked as she had never seen Little Jia eating so much.
'She had eaten a full plate of rice and dumplings but still is hungry now.'
Meanwhile, Jiao turned to her and smiled
As is saying "Didn't I tell you, you will eat a lot of food."
Ning Wei glanced at Yuan Meng.
Yuan Meng was helping Ye Qian serve more rice in the pate as she noticed Ning Wei looking at her.
"Sister Wei do you also want some?"
"Hmm sure."
Not able to say anything Ning Wie nodded and continued to eat the rice that Yuan Meng served her.
About 20 minutes.
After they all ate the rice except for Ye Qian, only about two plates worth of rice was left now.
The bowl was full of it and seemed to be of about 12 litres of volume but now it was almost empty.
"Papa, you didn't eat."
Suddenly Little Jia exclaimed.
Ye Qian smiled and patted her head.
"Papa will eat later don't worry."
"No."
Little Jia shook her head and turned to Yuan Meng.
"Aunt Meng, give some dumplings and rice on this plate."
Little Jia passed the empty plate which was in front of Ye Qian and was not stained at all after so much time.
Yuan Meng smiled and handed her the plate as she emptied the rice and placed some steaming hot dumplings on top.
Little Jia took it carefully and placed it in front of Ye Qian.
She took a fork and poked a dumpling and blew it sometimes as Ye Qian did and dipped it in the sauce and extended her arm to Ye Qian's mouth.
"Papa eat it, now Jia will feed you. Hmm"
Little Jia exclaimed as she brought it to his lips.
Ye Qian smiled and opened his mouth and took the dumpling in his mouth.
Little Jia smiled and continued to feed him some more.
They were really looking like a daughter and after as they continued to feed each other.
The ladies had a smile on their faces as they looked at them and continued to eat with happy expressions on their faces
It didn't take long for Ye Qian to eat all the dumplings.
As soon as he finished the last one Little Qiqi giggled.
"Papa, Qiqi will also feed you."
Saying that she took a spoon and took the rice while bringing her tiny hand carefully to Ye Qian's mouth.
Ye Qian nodded and continued to eat.
"Hey, Qiqi let's feed Papa like how he fed us."
Little Jia urged.
"Huh, how so big sister Jia?"
Little Qiqi looked at her in confusion.
"See, you will feed him a spoon and then I will, after that you, then again me."
Little Jia explained as she took another spoon.
"Yes yes."
Little Qiqi's eyes shone as she heard her and clapped her hands.
Meanwhile, Ye Qian was in the heavens as he was being fed by the little girls.
Ye Qian was all smiles as they continued to bring him spoons of rice.
The ladies seemed to have noticed and felt jealous.
But there was nothing they would do and continued to blow their hot soup and drink it.
In another five minutes, the plate full of rice was turned empty.
"My little girls now Papa is full, till then Papa will help you eat the soup."
Then he took two bowls and filled them with hot steaming soup and placed them in front of them and took two spoons and alternately continued to blow some air and feed them.
The little girls were happy and giggled as Ye Qian fed them.
But Little Jia was even more happy than everyone at the table.
'Now Jia also has Papa, Jia had nothing to cry for and be sad about.'
She thought as she glanced at Ye Qian who was continuously blowing the soup and brought the spoon to her and smiled and she opened her mouth and a tear dripped from the corner of her eyes.
This was what she had always asked for from all the gods and finally, now she also had someone whom she could call PAPA.
Now she had nothing to ask for more, what she desired the most was given to her she was content with everything.
