Chapter 1090

“Time to eat, old man!”

Then she came to the kitchen to wash some fruits. Piggy Looked at

Carlos quizzically.

“Why does Mom call you ‘old man?'”

Carlos stroked her hair and answered, “Because I’m older than your mom.”

“That is a good question. I’m not that much older than her, ‘ he thought, confused.

Shaking his thoughts away, he went to the bathroom to wash up. Then he held Piggy’s hand and led

her to the dining room.

“Evelyn, don’t you want any?”

Piggy shook her head.

“Uncle Carlos, I’m full. Just eat! The wontons are yummy!”

There were two bowls on the table, one for beef and noodles and the other for wontons. Carlos found

the layout rather strange. ‘No veggies?’

Nevertheless, he picked up the chopsticks and began to eat the wontons.

The wontons were small dumplings, with a shell of thin dough, and minced fish inside. Piggy hated

meat, but she would sometimes eat fish if Debbie insisted. The wontons were mainly for Piggy, so the

girl at least got some kind of meat in her.

“I love this!’ Carlos praised in his mind.

He polished off the wontons in just a few minutes and even slurped up all the soup. He wasn’t full,

though

Looking at the empty bowl in front of Carlos, Piggy said cheerfully,

“Uncle, you Like wontons?”

Carlos nodded, “Yeah. It’s yummy.” Then he started on the beef and noodles.

Debbie walked out of the kitchen in an apron, holding a plate filled with a variety of sliced fruit.

“Here, Piggy, have some fruit with

Uncle. I bought your favorite cherries.”

“Thanks, Mommy!” Piggy got to her feet and shot towards the bathroom to wash her hands.

Placing the plate on the table, Debbie followed Piggy into the washroom.

“Hold on, honey. Mommy turns on the tap.”

Watching their retreating figures, Carlos couldn’t help but smile.
