The Strong Female Lead Versus The Most Miserable Male Lead-Chapter 263 - 261 Edamame
Chapter 263 -261 Edamame
Fu Yunhe didn’t even look up, his hands kept tugging at the edamame, he even picked up a few bean stalks and handed them to Dou Dou and Elder Hua.
Dou Dou furrowed his little nose angrily, turned his back, his whole body radiating refusal.
“No, this is wrong, I can’t do it! Auntie will be angry.”
“Right! We can’t stoop to your level.”
Elder Hua reacted similarly, the old and the young stood as embodiments of justice, to the left and right, even trying to preserve evidence.
Fu Yunhe remained unmoved, leisurely picking edamame and said, “Your auntie asked for it to be picked.”
What?
Dou Dou’s combative expression relaxed in the blink of an eye, he immediately squatted on the ground, grabbed a bean stalk with one small hand, and tugged forcefully downwards.
On the other side, Elder Hua also moved quickly, squatting on the other side and began to pick edamame as well.
He still found time to instruct Fu Yunhe, “Xiao He, next time such important information must be given first.”
“Otherwise, it can easily cause misunderstanding.”
Fu Yunhe’s edamame picking hand paused for a moment, a slightly relieved smile appeared, but quickly vanished.
Elder Hua, during different occasions, had also said the same thing to him.
Although the teacher’s memory was somewhat blurry, his essence remained unchanged, teaching and nurturing seemed to be etched into his bones.
It was good, everyone was doing well.
The three of them, sitting together in a small pile, quietly picked edamame, with the addition of the two, Fu Yunhe’s speed indeed increased quite a bit.
After they finished picking, he handed the edamame to Mr. Fan to boil.
Mr. Fan looked at the green edamame, realizing that it was already edible at this time.
Boss said it was tasty, so it definitely must be.
Mr. Fan took the edamame and began to prepare it, and when it had boiled for a certain time, the aroma of the edamame started to waft out.
Mr. Fan scooped out one, tasted it to see if it was cooked.
“Dou Dou, don’t rush, we still have to wait a bit.”
Outside the kitchen, Dou Dou, standing on tiptoe, continuously staring at the kitchen, laughed a bit shyly, patting his little belly, “I told you not to rush.”
Mr. Fan was amused by Dou Dou and laughed out loud, continued monitoring the edamame, and started preparing lunch.
Dou Dou didn’t wait outside anymore and went somewhere else to play.
When the edamame was ready, Mr. Fan called Dou Dou over and gave him a stalk.
Dou Dou happily thanked Mr. Fan, holding the small edamame in his palm, and ran off.
Mr. Fan was a bit curious, why did he run off?
His gaze followed Dou Dou, watching him cross the creek, walking along the narrow path left in the fields, staggering along, miraculously not falling.
The little short legs ran quite a distance, finally reaching a place close to Nian Shutong.
Dou Dou used all his strength to shout, “Auntie! Auntie!”
Nian Shutong, who was clearing the land, heard Dou Dou’s voice, looked in the direction of the sound, and Little Douding was at the field’s edge, his little face flushed, panting heavily.
She put down what she was doing, lightly dashed a few steps, quickly arriving at the field’s edge, squatting down to look at Dou Dou.
“What happened?”
“Auntie!” Dou Dou’s voice was filled with excitement, his small hand opened, inside was a cooked bean.
“Auntie, the edamame are ready, Dou Dou brought them for you.”
Nian Shutong looked at the edamame in Dou Dou’s palm, instantly burst into laughter.
“Thank you Dou Dou, auntie accepts it.” It was the first time Nian Shutong referred to herself as Dou Dou’s auntie, previously she always referred to herself as mine.
Dou Dou didn’t feel much, he just wanted to give the best to his auntie.
Nian Shutong peeled the edamame, inside were three small beans, under Dou Dou’s insistence, she ate two, and Dou Dou ate one.
After eating a piece of edamame, Dou Dou looked like a little hamster that had just stolen food, his eyes squinting in enjoyment.
“This is delicious, auntie is so amazing, always able to find tasty things.”
In Dou Dou’s eyes, there was nothing Shutong couldn’t do.
“Dou Dou will also be amazing when he grows up,” she said, wiping the sweat from Dou Dou’s forehead with her finger.
Shutong felt as though she was missing a handkerchief.
“Dou Dou, learn your skills well, so you can protect auntie when you grow up.”
“Okay, auntie will wait.”
Shutong stopped working. She took Dou Dou’s hand and slowly walked back.
“Tired?”
“Not tired!”
Dou Dou stubbornly insisted. Auntie had been working, he couldn’t let others carry him.
As if to prove he wasn’t tired, Dou Dou let go of Shutong’s hand, looked up, and took big steps forward.
Shutong watched Dou Dou, like a little adult, and flicked her hand; a streak of green light appeared under her feet.
The next second, Shutong scooped up Dou Dou in one arm and said, “Don’t be scared.”
At that moment, Dou Dou was flying.
He stood on that streak of green light, his collar gripped by Shutong, hanging about a meter off the ground, progressing slowly through the air.
But it was so thrilling!
This was different from flying in a Flying Device; he could vividly feel the wind.
“Dou Dou is flying! Auntie, auntie, Dou Dou is flying!”
Dou Dou was not scared at all; instead, he was wildly excited.
If it weren’t for Shutong holding him, he would have wanted to jump around on it.
Even then, he kept waving his little arms, shouting loudly to others, “Auntie is making Dou Dou fly! Auntie is taking Dou Dou flying!”
The happiness of a child is just that simple.

After they crossed the stream, Shutong landed. Dou Dou was slightly unsatisfied but obediently didn’t complain.
With Shutong back, everyone could eat edamame.
A big bowl was placed in the center of the table.
Nobody sat down; everyone just took one piece after another to eat while standing.
Edamame was such a thing—once you had one, you craved another; it was addictive.
A large bowl of edamame—if it weren’t for the concern about lunch later and Shutong’s warning that eating too much could cause diarrhea, everybody really wanted to eat more.
It truly tasted great.
At noon, Shutong told Zhang Hui that she could let each family pick some of the edamame to eat while it was fresh in the next couple of days, but they must pick it in patches, not randomly.
Zhang Hui understood and told each family to gather some to boil and taste.
Everyone acknowledged and planned to gather some in the afternoon or evening.
Now, everyone had already started eating lunch.
After lunch, those who had to work, went to work. Shutong, who was planning to work, was stopped by Fu Yunhe.
Shutong pointed to herself and said, “You want me to help you test for bugs in the game? And you’re going to pay me?”
“Yes.”
Shutong looked at Fu Yunhe, who didn’t seem to be joking. It probably wasn’t a sudden pang of conscience to give her money.
“Alright, alright, but I’m telling you, my services aren’t cheap, don’t think you can get away with just a few pennies.”
“Also, if I accidentally damage you or crash your game, I won’t compensate.”
