“I was away on a business trip for a while and just got back. I missed Lele, so I wanted toe pick him up. I called my older sister, and she said you coulde pick Lele up. I thought I’d try my luck here and see if I could run into you.”
Ning Tianlei doted on his nephew Lele.
“No wonder I hadn’t seen you for a while. So you were away on a business trip. My second brother asked me to pick up Lele, so I came. If I had known you were free, I would have had youe to my ce to get the pick-up card.”
Ning Tianleiughed, “I just got back from the airport too. It was ast-minute decision.”
So the two of them waited for Lele toe out of the kindergarten.
Ten minutester, Lele came out with his teacher.
“Uncle Ba!”
The little guy had sharp eyes and spotted his Uncle Ba in the crowd at a nce.
Well, his uncles were all tall and handsome, making them particrly eye-catching in the crowd.
After handing the pick-up card to the teacher, Zhan Yue smiled and picked up Lele. “Aren’t you happy that your Uncle Ba came to
pick you up?” “Yes! Uncle Ba, howe you had time to pick me up?”
“Your dad asked me to pick you up. Even if I didn’t have time, I had to make time. Nothing is more important than picking you up.”
Lele was very happy.
“Lele.”
Ning Tianlei called out to his nephew.
Lele looked over and saw his uncle, whom he hadn’t seen for a while. He excitedly called out “Uncle!” and reached out to his uncle, wanting him to hold him.
Zhan Yue handed his nephew to Ning Tianlei and gently patted his nephew’s bottom. “You don’t need Uncle Ba anymore when you see your uncle.”
Lele affectionately hugged Ning Tianlei’s neck. “I see Uncle Ba often, but I haven’t seen my uncle for a while.”
Zhan Yue smiled and gently pinched his nose.
The two of them carried Lele and walked back.
“Tianlei, you just got back. You probably didn’t drive here, right? How about I take you home? You can look after Lele?”
“Okay,”
Ning Tianlei didn’t refuse.
Lele, however, said, “Eighth Uncle, you cook for me. My uncle’s cooking isn’t as good.”
Ning Tianlei blushed.
“Lele, your uncle has been working hard to learn to cook.”
He felt his cooking skills had improved a lot.
Of course, he couldn’tpare to the young master of the Zhan family, who had been learning to cook since childhood.
Lele spoke the truth: “My uncle’s cooking isn’t as good as my Eighth Uncle’s.”
He said to Zhan Yue, “Eighth Uncle, well, my parents definitely won’t be home that soon. My uncle’s cooking is barely edible. Eighth Uncle’s is much better.”
When his father was home, his father cooked for him and his mother.
When his parents weren’t home, the chef would cook.
He wouldn’t go hungry.
However, Lele still preferred his father’s cooking, and also the cooking of his uncles.
Even his serious eldest uncle’s cooking was better than his uncle’s.
He had asked his mother why his uncle, who often cooked, never made it as good as his father and the others. His
mother said that cooking also requires talent; some people don’t have that talent, and no matter how hard they try, it’s just so-so.
Mom also said that when he’s a little older, she’ll let him learn to cook, saying that the Zhan family children are expected to developprehensively, and cooking is not only good for his own stomach, but also for the stomachs of those he cares about in the future.
Zhan Yue lightly tapped his forehead, “You’ve be too attached to your Uncle Ba. Uncle Ba was thinking of sending you and your uncle home so you’d be free, but you still want Uncle Ba to cook for you. Fine, Uncle Ba will cook you something delicious.”
Zhan Yue resigned himself to his fate.
His arrival to pick up Lele meant he was destined to be a “nanny uncle” tonight.
