The Emperor of Qin gave six handsome men

Chapter 281 Missing

While Xuhe was immersed in his own thoughts, he didn't notice that the sweet and sour spareribs in the pot had begun to burn. When he came to his senses, he looked at the slightly burnt spareribs and felt a little annoyed. For him, if the food is not perfect, it is not worth serving. So he prepared to throw away these failed dishes.

"Wait, don't throw it away." Qin Xingfu quickly stopped him, "It's actually not that bad like this, not too mushy." As she said that, she quickly picked up a piece of ribs and put it in her mouth to taste.

"Hmm...it's great! Although it's a little bitter, it's completely negligible." Qin Xingfu nodded with satisfaction while chewing the ribs.

Xuhe looked at her with some suspicion, then took a cautious bite. Hmm, it was indeed acceptable.

“Really?” he asked.

"Well, of course!" Qin Xingfu said with a smile, "You see, this is the so-called Maillard reaction. It adds a unique flavor to the food. It's delicious!" After that, she picked up another piece of pork ribs and started to eat it with relish.

"Okay, since you said so, let's eat!" Xuhe finally felt relieved.

They sat at the table and enjoyed this simple and warm dinner. On the table were twice-cooked pork with green peppers, sweet and sour pork ribs, steamed sea bass and seaweed egg drop soup, each dish exuding an enticing aroma.

This small space was filled with warmth and happiness. Xuhe gently filled her bowl with rice. The delicious spareribs had whetted her appetite, so she couldn't wait to try other dishes.

"Hmm...home-cooked meals taste so wonderful! Xuhe, you should come and try them too." Qin Xingfu praised the delicacies. Seeing her so satisfied, Xuhe felt a sense of accomplishment and began to savor the delicious meal with her.

After the meal, Qin Xingfu gently stroked her round belly and couldn't help but sigh: "I'm really full! Xuhe, your cooking skills are quite superb. This meal has a strong taste of home."

"If you like it, I will cook it for you in the future." Xu He said as he cleaned up the dishes. Qin Xingfu walked up to him and hugged his waist tightly, his face full of gratitude. "Xu He, why are you all so nice to me? I always feel that I don't deserve such care."

Qin Xingfu often felt guilty because she seemed unable to give them anything in return. "Stop talking nonsense. It is our greatest blessing to be able to be a family with you. As long as it is you, it is enough." After Xuhe cleaned up the dishes, he wiped his hands, turned around and hugged her tightly.

After they hugged each other for a long time, Xuhe finally remembered to take her out to digest the food, so they went to inspect together hand in hand. Every place was carefully designed and built by Xuhe, full of his hard work and love.

"This place is prepared for the children. When they get married in the future, the whole family can live here..." Xuhe introduced to Qin Xingfu.

"This is the laboratory and study room reserved for you. I also built a swing next to it. If you feel tired, you can sit on it and take a rest..." Xuhe continued.

Qin Xingfu listened to his words and was deeply moved. She took the initiative to kiss him. This man showed his care and love for her everywhere, and her heart trembled fiercely.

Xuhe was tempted by her actions, but he thought that these places had not been cleaned up yet and he couldn't let her stay here. So, before they finished their tour, Xuhe took her back to the main courtyard.

That night, the two sent someone to tell Qin Shan and Qin Chuan that they would not be going back tonight. Qin Shan and Qin Chuan looked at each other and shrugged helplessly.

"Brother, does Dad think we are an eyesore? Why doesn't he like to take us with him?" Qin Chuan asked in confusion.

"Maybe it's because mom and dad need some time alone." Qin Shan comforted.

"But every time Mom is free, Dad forgets about us, as if we don't exist." Qin Chuan complained.

"Uh...we were an accident."

What can Qin Shan say? What can he say? Fortunately, these two kids are not really children. Otherwise, seeing Qin En and Qin Ci like this, they really thought they were forgotten by their parents.

Fortunately, he has reliable family members. Qin Chuan looked at his two younger brothers and sisters helplessly, and did not forget to pick up food for them while eating.

"Thank you, brother!" Qin En thanked his brother with a sweet smile on his face.

"You're welcome." Looking at this innocent and cute little guy, Qin Chuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart: What a silly child, he is still very innocent.

On the other hand, Qin Xingfu was enjoying his leisure time in the manor, when he suddenly slapped his head and remembered something. "Oh! It's all your fault. I clearly said yesterday that I would take Qin En and the others out to play."

As she said this, she clenched her fist and gently hit Xuhe's chest. Seeing this, Xuhe smiled and hugged her, saying gently: "It's okay, children have very poor memories, it will be the same if we go tomorrow. And... don't you feel tired?"

The ambiguous and dangerous tone made Qin Xingfu's heart skip a beat, and he subconsciously touched his waist.

"I'm tired, go to bed."

So, she lay down with her back to him, and Xuhe hugged her from behind. He was also tired and had to admit that people were really not very good at a certain age. In the first two years after their marriage, he wanted to be with her all the time and compete with her. At the age of thirty, he felt that he had enough strength left, but this year he was forty and needed external help to replenish his energy. He could still withstand it occasionally, but it was only limited to one day. After a long time, they would be exhausted.

On the other side, Ying Bu, Yue Xin and others rested at the post station.

Nowadays, the post stations have been expanding again and again, but they are still not enough. Yue Xin and his companions could only grab two rooms. The five teenagers squeezed into one room, and Yue Xin and Ying Bu were in the same room.

"How do you feel about going out for a walk today?"

Ying Bu was quite excited and couldn't fall asleep easily.

"It's okay during the day. Everything I see and hear is relatively new and interesting. But now I miss the adults and children a little bit."

Yue Xin told his feelings truthfully, and Ying Bu felt a little nostalgic when looking at the roof.

"I don't know if the children will miss us. The adults won't miss us."

It might be a little difficult to make Qin Xingfu miss them on her own initiative. Even if they are not around, it is not like there is no one around to accompany her. Yue Xin couldn't help but smile.

"Yeah, the kids probably won't miss us, they're just a little uncomfortable with it for now."

"My daughter will definitely miss me."

Ying Bu would never compare his daughter with that brat Qin Yue again. Although his daughter didn't send her off, he knew that he must be there watching her.
