"Hey, Yiyi knows."
Liu Yiyi responded sweetly and gently pushed the half-open door.
Immediately, she held a tray in her hands and a lantern with flickering candles, and walked into the study with gentle steps.
"Daddy."
Liu Mingzhi turned sideways and looked at his eldest daughter, who was slowly walking towards him, looking at her lovingly, smiling softly and nodding.
"Hey, dear daughter, have you had dinner?"
"Go back to Daddy, I just ate and haven't had time for a cup of tea yet."
Liu Yiyi walked lightly to Master Liu and stopped, first placing the tray in her hand on the desk.
Then he turned around and walked aside, placing the lantern in his hand on the lamp stand.
Liu Mingzhi looked at the porridge bowl on the tray, then turned to look at Liu Yiyi.
"Yiyi, this porridge water?"
Liu Yiyi returned to the desk, stretched out her beautiful hand to pick up the porridge bowl on the tray, and handed it to Young Master Liu with a smile on her face.
"Dad, when Yiyi saw that you didn't go to the main hall for dinner, she was worried that you would feel empty, so she specially left a bowl of white fungus and lotus seed soup for you.
Daddy, the lotus seed soup hasn’t cooled down yet, so drink it while it’s hot.”
Liu Mingzhi raised his hand and rubbed his brow, then happily took the lotus seed soup into his hand.
"Okay, okay, my dear daughter, you are interested. Daddy, drink now, drink now." Then Young Master Liu pointed to the chair beside him: Yiyi, please stop standing, sit down and have a rest."
Liu Yiyi frowned slightly when she saw the tiredness on her father's face. Instead of sitting on the chair, she walked sideways and stopped behind Young Master Liu.
Young Master Liu looked slightly startled, looking up at his good daughter behind him.
"Hmm? Yiyi?"
Liu Yiyi rolled up her sleeves with a smile, directly exposing half of her jade arms with creamy skin.
"Daddy, you drink porridge first, and Yiyi will pat your back and rub your shoulders."
As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Yiyi didn't wait for her father to respond. She directly raised her hands and put them on Young Master Liu's shoulders, and gently kneaded them with her ten green-white jade fingers.
My daughter has already started rubbing her shoulders, and I can only enjoy it.
"Okay, okay, as a father, I will drink porridge first."
"Yeah, yeah, daddy, is this strength okay?"
Mr. Liu picked up the spoon and took a small sip of the lotus seed soup. He looked up at the little cotton-padded jacket and nodded happily.
"Good girl, just right, just right."
Hearing her father's satisfactory answer, Liu Yiyi smiled lightly and tapped her head a few times.
"Hmm, then Yiyi will follow this strength. Dad, please continue to drink porridge."
Young Master Liu saw his good daughter's obedient and sensible appearance, and silently drank the lotus seed soup from the bowl.
Unconsciously, my eyes gradually became sour.
Before you know it, it seemed like it was just a blink of an eye.
The little girl who was chattering around her and couldn't get rid of her father, who was older than her father and couldn't get rid of her, has grown into a young girl, and it's time to get married.
Before my eyes, I can see how the children have changed year by year over the years.
Young Master Liu felt both emotion and melancholy in his heart.
My sons and daughters are gradually growing up one by one, and I and my wives are also getting older.
Time, this kind of thing.
It went by really fast.
Even more ruthless.
Liu Mingzhi drank the lotus seed soup from the bowl one mouthful at a time, and the pictures that appeared in front of his eyes were all the voices and smiles of Liu Yiyi, Liu Chengfeng, Liu Chengzhi, Liu Yaoyao and their brothers when they were young.
Especially there are many scenes of Liu Yiyi when she was a child.
Whenever I think about the fact that in less than three months, my good daughter will get married, I can't help but feel a little sour in my heart.
A pair of eyes were equally unsatisfactory, and their sockets, which were already a little sore, became even more sore at this moment.
Feeling that his eyes had become a little blurry without realizing it, Young Master Liu breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly adjusted his mood.
Immediately afterwards, he used the action of drinking porridge to wipe the corners of his eyes with his sleeves without leaving a trace.
Men should get married when they are older, and women should get married when they are older.
Sooner or later there will be such a day, sooner or later there will be such a day!
Men should get married when they are older, and women should get married when they are older.
It's a matter of morning and evening, it's a matter of morning and evening.
Young Master Liu reiterated twice in his mind the previous conversations between himself and the ladies, and the sourness in his heart calmed down a little.
"Daddy."
"Why!"
Young Master Liu responded immediately, blinked his eyes hard several times, and looked up at his good daughter behind him with a smile.
"My dear daughter, what's wrong?"
“Dad, can you be full with just this bowl of lotus seed soup?
Do you want me to prepare some dishes for you or bring you some cakes?"
Mr. Liu shook his head with a smile, drank the remaining lotus seed soup in a few gulps, and then put the porridge bowl back into the tray.
"Hehehe, no need, no need.
When my father went to pay homage to your Aunt Tao Ying this morning, he had already eaten and drank enough while chatting with her in the imperial mausoleum.
Why, didn’t your mother and aunts tell you?”
"I told you, but it's just that it's been so long, and Yiyi is still worried that you won't have enough to eat."
Young Master Liu took out his handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth, then waved his hand cheerfully.
"I'm full, I'm full, I'm full."
Liu Yiyi smiled sweetly and said sweetly: "Hey, it will be fine when Daddy is full, so Yiyi doesn't have to worry."
Mr. Liu casually picked up the tobacco bag on the desk and filled a pot of tobacco with skillful movements.
He picked up the fire stick on the corner of the table and was about to light his tobacco when he thought of his good daughter standing behind him and put the fire stick back into the distance.
Seeing this, Liu Yiyi leaned her waist and took the fire seal in her hand, then handed it to her father with a smile.
"Daddy, if you want to smoke, just smoke. Yiyi will be fine."
Seeing the fire dumplings handed over by his daughter, Mr. Liu hesitated for a moment, took the fire dumplings and stood up.
"Yiyi, let's go for a walk in the yard."
Liu Yiyi directly withdrew her slender hands that were rubbing her father's shoulders, and nodded with a smile.
"Hey, Yiyi listens to you."
Young Master Liu raised his arms high, stretched out, and took the lead to walk out of the study.
Liu Yiyi immediately walked to the lantern stand, took down the lantern she brought, and ran after Young Master Liu.
"Daddy, wait a minute, baby."
When Liu Dashan saw Liu Yiyi carrying a lantern and followed him, he cheerfully pointed to several lights under the eaves next to him.
"Yiyi, there are already seven or eight lanterns hanging in the yard. The surrounding area is bright enough."
Liu Yiyi smiled and scratched her head as she saw the bright courtyard in front of her.
"Hehehe, daddy, Yiyi just forgot about it in a hurry."
Young Master Liu chuckled, shook his head, and walked slowly towards the courtyard.
