“We can’t spoil a boy, since we can’t raise him for the rest of his life. What will he do when his mother and I are old? Therefore, we have to train the boy early on! Let him learn to earn money by relying on himself. After he knows how difficult it is to earn money, he’ll know how to be a down-to-earth person!” Wang Guang explained his concept.

“Yes, Wang Guang, you’re right! Guys should be raised like this!” The person beside him also agreed.

As they spoke, the pancakes were ready.

After Zhao Huaishan paid, he took two pancakes. He gave one to Zhao Long and took the remaining one himself.

“Hey, Mr. Zhao, didn’t you buy it for your son? Why did you only give him one pancake?” a busybody asked.

“I have two sons! One for each!” Zhao Huaishan said as he picked up the pancakes and left.

As Zhao Long held the pancake in his hand, he didn’t know if he should eat it or not.

“Eat it! I remember that you liked to eat pancakes the most when you were young! Every time your mother made it, you and your third brother would fight over it! In the end, when there was only one pancake left, you gave half to your third brother!” Old Master Zhao Huaishan seemed to have seen Zhao Long’s hesitation and started talking about the past.

Zhao Long also remembered what had happened previously. After some thought, he placed the omelet in his mouth.

It had to be said that Wang Guang’s culinary skills weren’t bad. The omelets tasted very delicious.

Then, Zhao Huaishan brought Zhao Long to the sliced noodles shop.

At this moment, there were no customers in the shop, but Li Xiaoran and Zhao Sisi were already prepared.

Seeing Zhao Huaishan and Zhao Long walk in, Li Xiaoqing ran over happily.

“Grandpa, Second Uncle, you’re here! What do you want to eat today?! I’ll cook for you!”

Zhao Huaishan smiled when he saw Li Xiaoqing’s excited expression.

“I want to eat the sliced noodles. Put less chili and cook them softer! As for your second uncle, ask him if he wants to eat sliced noodles.”

Li Xiaoqing immediately looked at Zhao Long.

“Second Uncle, what do you want to eat?”

Zhao Long felt a little awkward at the thought that he didn’t bring any money.

“I’ll cook a bowl of sliced noodles for my father! My father likes to eat minced meat the most. I’ve never cooked sliced noodles for my father before! Take today’s noodles as an expression of my filial piety to my father!” Zhao Sisi seemed to have seen through Zhao Long’s embarrassment and walked over with a smile.

“Alright, then I’ll cook my grandfather a bowl of noodles. You can cook your father a bowl of noodles!” Li Xiaoqing nodded with a smile and pulled Zhao Sisi to cook the noodles.

There were a total of four pots cooking sliced noodles now. Because customers came in groups, if they only relied on one pot to cook noodles, they definitely wouldn’t be able to keep up with the speed. Therefore, there were a total of four pots in the shop now. Two pots were placed in the built stove, and the other two pots were burning in two ovens.

Therefore, the sisters worked together and quickly cooked the sliced noodles.

Because Huaishan had to eat soft food, Zhao Long’s knife-cut noodles were served first.

Looking at the bowl of noodles and green vegetables, Zhao Long couldn’t help but feel his appetite whetted even though he had eaten pancakes before.

After taking a bite of the sliced noodles, Zhao Long was amazed.

“Daughter, you cooked the sliced noodles very well. Your culinary skills will definitely be praised by everyone!”

Zhao Sisi smiled when she heard her father’s praise.

“It’s good that you like it. Let me know if you want to eat it in the future. I’ll make it for you!”

Looking at the brilliant smile on his daughter’s face, Zhao Long was immediately touched.

To be honest, Zhao Long hadn’t seen his daughter smile so happily in a long time.

Not only Zhao Sisi, but even his youngest son, Zhao Yuanzheng, had never laughed so heartily before.

Suddenly, Wang Guang’s words sounded in his mind.

At this moment, Zhao Long came back to his senses.

It was as if his mind had been shrouded in a fog.

Now that the fog had dissipated, he was sober.

At this moment, Mao Dao came over and gave him a few big buns.

“Mr. Zhao, Sr. Zhao, these are the fresh meat buns I made. Try them!” Mao Dao said with a smile.

Before Sr. Zhao could speak, Zhao Long laughed.

“You’re still calling me Mr. Zhao? You’re going to marry my daughter, so why aren’t you changing your address?”

Everyone froze at those words.

Zhao Huaishan laughed when he heard his son’s words.

As expected, his efforts today weren’t in vain!

“What? Are you so overjoyed that you’re speechless? Did you hear that? Hurry up and address Father and Grandpa!” Yuan Cheng quickly came over and poked Mao Dao’s waist as he reminded him.

Mao Dao was overjoyed.

“Father, Grandpa, try it quickly! If you think the buns are delicious, I’ll make them for you every day in the future!”

Zhao Long said, “Don’t make it every day. Don’t you need to earn money to raise a family? I gave my precious daughter to you so that you can treat her well! If you bully my daughter, I won’t let you off!”

Mao Dao replied, “Yes, yes, yes. Father, don’t worry. I’ll definitely treat Sisi well. Hurry up and try it. If you like it, I’ll make some for you and Grandpa every once in a while!”

Only then did Zhao Long let Mao Dao off. Then, he picked up a meat bun and

ate it.

It had to be said that this meat bun tasted very delicious!

When Zhao Sisi saw this scene, her eyes turned red.

When Li Xiaoqing saw Zhao Sisi like this, she immediately laughed.

“Look, hasn’t the matter you’re most worried about been resolved? Although I don’t know why Second Uncle suddenly figured it out, it’s a good thing that he supports you and Mao Dao! Smile. We have to welcome every day with our happy selves! No difficulties can stump us!” Zhao Sisi nodded and smiled happily.

On the way back, Zhao Huaishan smiled.

“Second son, you didn’t let me down! I hope you can still face life so clearly after you go back and stop being so muddle-headed! Look at your third brother. He’s already starting to work hard! As his brother, you can’t lose to him!”

After Zhao Long figured it out and thought about his previous self, he felt that he was quite a bastard.

After coming out, he was bewitched by everything in the outside world. He always wanted to take shortcuts, but he didn’t know that this mentality harmed others and himself.

“Father, I know I was wrong! Don’t worry, I’ll definitely pull myself together this time! I can’t harm my children!”
