“Mom, didn’t you say Aunt Suxin and her family would come back after the middle school exam?” Seeing that the holiday was nearly over, Shen Zhaozhao finally couldn’t help but ask Shu Ran.
Shu Ran, “Oh, I forgot to tell you, Aunt Suxin’s family isn’t coming back this year.”
“What? Why aren’t they coming back?” Full of anticipation, it all turned to nothing, and Shen Zhaozhao was completely stunned.
Shu Ran, “They said they took Little Ali abroad for treatment.”
“What’s wrong with Ali?” Shen Zhaozhao hurriedly asked.
“That child has always been silent, and he is also uninterested in things around him. Your Aunt Suxin is worried—she just heard about a specialist abroad, so she thought to take him to see the doctor, and at the same time, the whole family could take a holiday abroad.”
...
“Then why didn’t you tell me earlier?” She had been looking forward to it for so long, only to end up waiting in vain.
“I just forgot!” She couldn’t have remembered if this girl hadn’t brought it up.
“You all eat, I’m not eating!” Shen Zhaozhao was very angry, unable to say if she was more upset that her mom hadn’t told her right away, or that someone hadn’t come back. In any case, she suddenly lost her appetite, didn’t eat her meal, and angrily went back to her room, leaving her bowls and chopsticks behind.
“What’s wrong with this child?” Shu Ran was shocked by her daughter’s temper.
This reaction is too much!
“Don’t you know? This child has always been close to Yi. She’s been hoping for so long, and now to hear he’s not coming back—it must be hard on her,” Daddy Zhaozhao said, while serving his wife some vegetables, “Alright, if she won’t eat, we will—let’s not bother about her, let her process this by herself.”
“This girl, getting such a big temper.” Shu Ran shook her head.
Shen Zhaozhao returned to her room to sulk alone for a while, but soon figured it out—someone doesn’t come back, she doesn’t care.
After a while, there was a knock at the door.
“Come in.”
“Sweetheart, are you hungry? Look what dad has bought for you.” Daddy Zhaozhao appeared at the door with a bag, speaking while opening the bag and intentionally fanning it with his hand to spread the aroma faster.
Shen Zhaozhao sniffed the air, her eyes lit up, “It’s barbecue and crayfish.”
“Very clever! Just like my daughter,” Daddy Zhaozhao said as he closed the door, inviting her, “Come on, eat it while it’s hot.”
“Thank you, Dad!” Shen Zhaozhao immediately climbed down from her bed.
Father and daughter sat down on the floor.
Shen Zhaozhao held a kebab in her left hand and a Coke in her right, eating with unparalleled happiness.
As Daddy Zhaozhao peeled shrimp for her, he said, “Your mom is getting older and forgetful; she didn’t intentionally keep it from you. Don’t be hard on her.”
“I was wrong too, I shouldn’t have lost my temper at her. Is mom okay?” Shen Zhaozhao had already calmed down by then, her upset feelings forgotten due to the healing power of delicious food.
“You know your mom. Has she ever really been mad at you? Just forget about it, and eat up!” Daddy Zhaozhao said.
“Mm-hm!” Shen Zhaozhao nodded and passed a piece of grilled pork belly to Daddy Zhaozhao’s mouth, “Dad, eat this, it’s especially delicious.”
“Thank you, sweetheart.” Daddy Zhaozhao took a bite and casually stuffed a piece of crayfish into his daughter’s mouth.
Father and daughter ate the meat, looking at each other happily.
There is nothing that a meal of barbecue and crayfish can’t heal; if there is, make it two meals.
