Chapter 1423: Chapter 1423: Preparing to Cook

Feeling the change in Jiang Xue’s mood, Little Reunion couldn’t help but feel anxious and quickly said, "Mom, I’m really not hungry. If you don’t believe me, feel my tummy."

As Little Reunion spoke, he showed his round tummy. It was clear he really wasn’t hungry. Otherwise, his tummy would have already been flattened from hunger.

Jiang Xue laughed, then reached out to touch Little Reunion’s belly and hugged him tightly, showering him with kisses.

After kissing him for a while, she asked Little Fox beside her, "Besides milk, what else did Little Fox eat?"

"Bread, same as yesterday," Little Fox replied with a smile. It originally planned to cook noodles for Little Reunion, but its cooking skills weren’t great, and Little Reunion didn’t really like it, so he just ate bread.

Luckily, Jiang Xue had stored a lot of bread and other food in the space beforehand; otherwise, Little Reunion would have really had to go hungry.

"How long ago did he finish the bread?" Jiang Xue asked again.

"Two hours ago, I suppose." After listening, Jiang Xue calculated the time and then said to Little Reunion, "Son, Mommy is hungry and wants to have a late-night snack. How about you join her for a bite?"

Little Reunion nodded upon hearing this, thinking Jiang Xue was really hungry, totally unaware that she claimed to be hungry to make sure he would eat, preparing the food especially for him, fearing he might starve.

Little Reunion didn’t understand, but Little Fox did. Yet, it didn’t say anything as Jiang Xue carried Little Reunion to the storeroom to find something to cook.

Fortunately, the preservation function in the space was decent, allowing items stored for a long time not to spoil. Jiang Xue took out several eggs, grabbed a handful of dried noodles, and a tomato, heading to the kitchen to cook egg noodles.

Smelling the fragrance emanating from the noodles, Little Reunion, who was originally not hungry, immediately had his appetite piqued, feeling ravenous.

Looking at his son’s greedy expression, Jiang Xue smiled, then served three bowls of noodles, placing them on the table.

Jiang Xue sat with Little Reunion in her lap, ready to feed him. Unexpectedly, before she could move, Little Reunion started eating on his own.

Watching her son eat by himself, Jiang Xue smiled, then continued to watch while eating from her own bowl. As for Little Fox’s bowl, it was placed on the floor and devoured within a few bites.

After finishing the noodles, Jiang Xue handed Little Reunion to Little Fox to watch him, then washed the dishes herself. After tidying up, she took Little Reunion back into her arms and went to sleep.

The next day, Jiang Xue prepared food for Little Reunion first, instructing Little Fox to heat it up for him when he got hungry.

Once that was settled, Jiang Xue left the space. After breakfast, Jiang Xue and Huo Cong did not immediately head to Ah Li’s restaurant, as it was too early and Ah Li wasn’t there.

Around nine-thirty, Jiang Xue and Huo Cong set off together to Ah Li’s place. When they arrived, Ah Li had just returned from grocery shopping, unloading the goods from her car to the restaurant.

Observing this, Jiang Xue and Huo Cong approached her to offer help. It took about ten minutes for the trio to move all the groceries into the kitchen.

After the groceries were moved, they took a brief rest, then Jiang Xue went into the kitchen to inspect the produce Ah Li had purchased. Seeing the fresh vegetables, Jiang Xue nodded with satisfaction.

After inspecting the produce, Jiang Xue started preparing them. Although the meal was for dinner, the vegetables had to be sorted out in the morning, and some needed to be prepped in advance.

When Ah Li saw Jiang Xue starting to prepare the vegetables, she stepped forward to help. Even Huo Cong didn’t stay idle, as did Ah Li’s original staff in the restaurant.
