Surrounded by the Billionaire's Deep Doting-Chapter 384 - 347: About Shaobing 1
When the assistant professor passed by, he saw Dean Qi with a full smile on his face, though mixed with fatigue, it couldn’t hide his good mood.
Dean Qi was quite proud as he showed him a text message sent by Su Xiaomeng.
"This is..."
"My student!"
Dean Qi’s face was full of pride!
"Haha, Dean, don’t you have many students?"
"This is a new one!"
"Aren’t all the students in the full classroom today your new students? Of course, this one might be a bit more considerate, but it shouldn’t make you this happy, should it?"
Dean Qi put away his phone, organized the class materials, put them in his briefcase, and left the classroom with the assistant. He sighed, "Being a teacher, you teach batches after batches of students, isn’t it tedious? Is it not boring?"
"Who made us teachers?"
"But whenever you meet such a considerate student, you feel it’s worth it, you feel willing, you feel you have value."
The assistant listened and remained silent for a long while, taking it to heart.
In the evening, when Yin Shixiu came back, during dinner, Su Xiaomeng was chattering endlessly about the class she attended today.
When talking about Dean Qi, she still had a face full of admiration.
"Now I understand why so many students respect and admire Dean Qi. It’s definitely not just a matter of knowledge and insight. Honestly, there are many knowledgeable and insightful professors with high titles, but someone like Dean Qi, it’s my first time seeing!"
"Dean Qi is indeed an amazing person. When he wasn’t so busy in the past, he often came home to see Mom. Whenever translation topics came up, he couldn’t stop talking."
Yin Shixiu said with a smile.
"Looks like I’m really lucky to always meet great people."
"Do you know who the greatest person you’ve met is?"
Yin Shixiu put down his chopsticks and picked up the bowl of the sulking Shuangshuang, comforting the little girl and feeding her.
"Hmm..."
Su Xiaomeng thought seriously, and then hurriedly said, "It should be Mom!"
Yin Shixiu immediately gave her a glance, unable to understand how he ranked behind the mother.
Shuangshuang refused to eat, always murmuring "sao bing."
Yin Shixiu couldn’t understand what she was saying.
Ah Su hesitated for a long while beside, looking a bit embarrassed.
Su Xiaomeng asked when she noticed, "What’s wrong with you?"
Ah Su scratched her hair and said, "Actually, what Shuangshuang is saying is... um... roasted flatbread."
"Roasted flatbread? What roasted flatbread?"
"It’s the old-fashioned kind, with a cart by the roadside, an iron oven, made fresh and sold fresh."
Yin Shixiu vaguely knew what that was; he had never eaten it himself.
From his impression, it seemed to be a large cylindrical iron oven, inside filled either with wood or charcoal.
Kneaded dough was put inside against the blackened iron oven wall, baked for a few minutes until the surface was golden, then taken out with tongs.
He had seen it by the roadside, precisely because he had seen it, he never touched it.
He thought that method seemed pretty coarse and dirty.
This Young Master Yin had always lived in the circles of the wealthy, probably even the snacks he ate as a child were more upscale than most kids’.
But Su Xiaomeng was different!
Upon hearing about roasted flatbread, she excitedly said, "Ah! Roasted flatbread? How does the little girl know about roasted flatbread?"
Ah Su glanced at Fourth Young Master, whose face had turned dark...
Seeing Young Madam’s face full of excitement, she didn’t know if it was good or bad, and said, "This afternoon, after Shuangshuang and Huang Huang woke up from their nap, I took them out for a bit of sunshine, and happened to see someone selling by the roadside..."
Ah Su glanced again at Fourth Young Master, her voice even lower...
"When I was young, I really liked eating those roasted flatbreads, so I bought one, then Shuangshuang was tempted... I broke off a piece for her, not expecting... she finished it and wanted more... so I simply bought another one."
"I thought she’d just taste it, but who knew she quietly chewed away at half a flatbread for an entire afternoon and finished it."
Yin Shixiu pursed his lips and slightly raised his eyes to look at Ah Su, with a hint of displeasure in his eyes.
Ah Su nervously clutched her clothes.
"Is it still sold downstairs? I didn’t notice when I came back! I want to eat it too! It’s really delicious and aromatic!"
Yin Shixiu lightly furrowed his brows and looked at Su Xiaomeng, unsure if she was joking or serious...
Ah Su was also a bit dazed.
"Why are you in a daze? Is there still any? I want to eat too!"
"Huh? Oh... I don’t know, you’d have to go down and check..."
"Let’s go, let’s go down and have a look together."
With that, Su Xiaomeng put down her bowl and chopsticks, got up, and pulled Ah Su to go out.
Ah Su hadn’t even taken off her apron, looking at Yin Shixiu’s dark face here, not saying a word, she couldn’t help swallowing.
As Su Xiaomeng walked, she delightedly said, "I haven’t seen roasted flatbread sellers in ages, all because of this high-end residential area scaring off the vendors... In the old neighborhood in Chengdu, there were all sorts of delicious street food outside."
"Is, is that so..."
"Of course, I remember an elderly couple who made these roasted flatbreads exceptionally well! Every time they came out of the oven, they were snapped up!"
"Haha, hahaha..."
The door closed, and silence enveloped the room.
Yin Shixiu took a deep breath, and then exhaled slowly.
Holding the small bowl, but the daughter almost turned her head ninety degrees, staring at the closed door.
Prince Huang reached out and patted Yin Shixiu, pointing to the plate of braised pork further away from him.
Yin Shixiu picked up a piece for him and placed it in his bowl. Prince Huang attempted several times to pick up the big piece of meat with his chopsticks but couldn’t manage it, so he silently threw down his chopsticks and used his hands instead.
He ate seriously and with concentration, completely ignoring what others were doing.
Yin Shixiu could only awkwardly find a space to wipe his mouth, so his face wouldn’t be half-covered in braised pork sauce.
"Shuangshuang, look at how deliciously your brother is eating? Come, have some rice."
Shuangshuang lay on the table, seriously glanced at her brother, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then looked at the plate of braised pork.
Yin Shixiu almost thought his daughter was tempted, but who knew—
Shuangshuang firmly waved her hand and stubbornly uttered two words: "Shao bing!"
Even if the sky fell, Boss Yin, who remained calm, really wanted to flip the table at this moment.
At first, Ah Su thought Su Xiaomeng had noticed Fourth Young Master’s displeased expression and wanted to ease the atmosphere, so she went downstairs with her.
Who knew—
"Ah, still there!"
There really was a small vendor selling shaobing at the street corner opposite the community, and business was quite good.
Su Xiaomeng waited for a while before she managed to buy them.
She carried five or six bing upstairs and started munching on one with Ah Su even before entering the house. "It’s really super tasty. Nowadays, those places with fancy renovations, with artsy names, and using electric ovens, just don’t have this taste!"
Ah Su nodded eagerly!
Couldn’t agree more.
The two entered the house, still incessantly discussing shaobing.
"It’s delicious when hot, but even when cold, it’s still good, though not as crispy as just out of the oven."
Yin Shixiu heard the noise and saw Su Xiaomeng approaching with a shaobing in her mouth...
"Shao bing!!"
Shuangshuang was so excited she almost jumped up, nearly tipping over her baby highchair.
Yin Shixiu frowned, "You’re not really going to let her eat that, right?"
"Shuangshuang likes it, and it’s sweet."
Xiaomeng said as she broke half a bing for Shuangshuang.
"Wow! Shuangshuang’s eyes are all smiling, haha!"
Ah Su laughed, inadvertently meeting Yin Shixiu’s gaze, immediately withdrawing and falling silent.
"It’s not hygienic."
Yin Shixiu took a shallow breath and said.
"Where?"
Su Xiaomeng blinked her eyes and asked.
Yin Shixiu was at a loss for words for a moment...
Thinking to himself, this definitely isn’t hygienic!
"Shuangshuang and Huang Huang are still so young. What if they get an upset stomach?"
Su Xiaomeng raised an eyebrow, looked at Yin Shixiu, and squinted, "Young Master Yin, have you never had a shaobing?"
"...not hygienic..."
"Haha, not hygienic? This is a traditional folk food. Come have a bite, have a taste, I guarantee you’ll find it delicious, Ah Su, isn’t it so?"
Ah Su nodded quickly, "Fourth Young Master, you really should try it."
"No thank you."
Yin Shixiu said in mild annoyance.
"Just have a bite!"
Su Xiaomeng kept nudging it towards his mouth, and Yin Shixiu got flustered, quickly ducking into the bedroom.
"Don’t run away!"
Yin Shixiu entered the bedroom, kept shaking his head, sighed lightly, sat on the edge of the bed, and started searching on his phone for "are roadside shaobing hygienic"...
The search results were overwhelmingly positive, and no one seemed to concern themselves with the hygiene issue...
It seemed there really was a generation gap between him and his wife.
Just as he put down his phone, the bedroom door was pushed open, and Xiaomeng poked her head in. Seeing Yin Shixiu sitting by the bed, she giggled and immediately slipped in, closing the door.
She held a shaobing in her hand!
Yin Shixiu’s heart skipped, on rare alert, "What are you doing?"
Su Xiaomeng sat on him, "Really not gonna try?"
"You just eat it yourself then."
"I’ll feed you, and you still won’t eat it?"
Su Xiaomeng threw him a flirtatious glance...
Yin Shixiu was amused by her antics, wrapped his arms around her waist, and laughed, "I must say, wife, was it necessary? To use a beauty trap to make me try a shaobing?"
"You see, since Shuangshuang loves munching shaobing now, she’ll be even keener in the future. Prince Huang also enjoys it. In this family, you’re the only one not eating it. In the future... you’ll be excluded by us."
Yin Shixiu saw her earnestly talking nonsense, yet he truly felt a sense of contentment.
"Come on, open wide..."
Yin Shixiu looked at her, suddenly leaned in to capture her lips, tightened his hold on her waist, and kissed her deeply and passionately.
"Mmm..."
He carefully laid her sideways on the bed, leaning over to gaze at her from above, teasing, "For a shaobing to make you so happy, you should’ve married Wu Dalang."
