“Wouldn’t it be too much trouble for you?” Li Meng asked.

“Not at all. It’ll be ready in two minutes. Let’s eat together!”

“Alright. Thank you so much.” Li Meng sat down with the children.

Doudou was still hiding behind Li Zekai. She peeked at her mother. “Mom, I was wrong. I am sorry. I didn’t do it on purpose,” said Doudou.

“My mother is the best!” said Doudou.

Li Meng sighed. Doudou was so naughty! She couldn’t even stay angry at her daughter.

“Alright. Don’t do it again,” said Li Meng. “Stop hiding behind Li Zekai. I don’t bite.”

[Hahaha… this is so funny! Who can resist Doudou’s sweetness?]

[Doudou, you’re too good. You’ve got Li Meng completely under your control.]

[Mengmeng loves Doudou more than cooking.]

[How dare you make a comparison between Doudou and cooking?]

[Is Mengmeng a foodie? She was moved by Lawyer Tao’s delicious food.]

[She must be. Doudou is pitifully admitting her mistake, but Li Meng isn’t angry anymore. The lunch invite completely changed her attitude.]

Doudou saw that her mother wasn’t angry anymore and walked out from behind Li Zekai. She hugged her mother. “Mom, did you see our paintings?”

Li Meng picked up the papers. Some of them were very colorful and others were simple. However, it was well done! She could instantly recognize that all the paintings were of the village.

“Very nicely done!” said Li Meng.

The children talked with Li Meng.

“Auntie Li, I heard that you’re a famous author. I heard you write a lot of books!” said Tutu.

“What’s so great about it? Anyone can write it as long as they’re willing,” Li Meng said humbly.

“You can publish a book just by casually writing it? It isn’t that easy! I wrote a story for a competition, but I didn’t even get selected, ” said Li Zekai,

“Uh…” Li Meng was a little flustered by the children’s questions. “You’re still young, Jiejie. I’m sure you will be writing great articles in a few years from now.”

“Thank you! I’m afraid of writing. I feel like I’m no good at it. But I have to keep doing it if I want to be better at it. I won’t quit!”

“That’s the spirit!” Li Meng ruffled Li Zekai’s hair.

[In college, I was always afraid of writing classes. I admire Li Meng for being able to write so many books.]

[Count me in as one of the struggling writers. I get headaches as soon as I have to write anything.]

[I feel that I’m quite well-read, but it comes to writing, I feel like an illiterate.]

[My son is in the third grade. When he turns his oral composition into a written one, I see him scratching his head in confusion. I’m afraid he’ll go bald at a young age, but I can’t help him. I sometimes search for things online to help him write, but the teacher can always tell.]

[Going bald at a young age? That’s hilarious!]

[Same here. Writing is a matter of life and death for my child. I have no idea how to help him.]

Li Meng shared some of her tips for writing.

“I don’t know if my methods are applicable to everyone, but… When I was young, I loved reading books. I would read anything. Fairy Tales, newspapers, etc. I used to note down quotes and phrases I liked the most. Whenever I was given a writing task, I would try to use the words and phrases that I had noted down. Gradually, that helped. My word usage and sentence construction began to improve. Even now, I still maintain that habit. I read something for an hour or so every day. Although most books are in electronic format now, I still prefer physical copies of books. It feels nice to hold them in my hands.”

“Doudou likes reading books, just like me. She often reads phrases or new words aloud to me. Her coherence and sentence construction had improved a lot from the past.”

[See? Children copy what their parents do. If parents aren’t reading themselves, how do you expect your kids to do that?]

[Parents need to pay attention and teach by example. What Li Meng says makes sense. Writing isn’t something you can improve overnight. You have to keep practicing.]

“It’s time to eat.” Tao Jingyuan finished cooking.

The children offered to set the table.

Tao Jingyuan hadn’t known before that Li Meng would be joining them for lunch, so she had only prepared food based on the children’s preferences.

“Li Meng, I don’t know if you’ll like these dishes. I only prepared the dishes that the children loved because I didn’t think adults would be joining us. I’m so sorry.”

“That’s alright. I’m already grateful that you invited me. It smells divine. I’m not a picky eater. I’m sure I will love the dishes as much as the children,” said

Li Meng. “Oh… I’ll call my husband and tell him I’ll be eating here with Doudou.”

Zheng Kuo came out of the kitchen holding a plate. “Just call him over. He must feel bored eating alone.”

“Would that really be okay?” Li Meng was a little embarrassed. It was her first day in this show, and she was already freeloading at other people’s houses. “Of course,” said Zheng Kuo. “You know, it’s better if I go and get him myself.” Zheng Kuo put down the bowl and headed to Doudou’s house.

Pei Lingfeng had just finished cooking shredded pork noodles. He was about to call his wife when he saw Zheng Kuo arrive in the courtyard.

“Hi,” said Zheng Kuo. “Is that your lunch?”

“Yes. Shredded pork noodles and there are some eggs too. Just a simple lunch,” said Pei Lingfeng.

“Li Meng and Doudou are having lunch at my house. Let’s go. We can take your noodles and eggs too!”

“Huh?” Pei Lingfeng was a little surprised.

“We made a lot for lunch. It’s enough for everyone. Your daughter even teased Li Meng on the livestream, saying she can’t cook at all.” Zheng Kuo chuckled.

“You don’t have to feel awkward. Let’s go.”

Pei Lingfeng felt that it would be impolite for his whole family to eat at Zheng Kuo’s place. “That’s alright. I can eat here. ”

“Oh, come on! It’s perfectly okay. If you don’t come, I think Doudou and Li Meng will also feel awkward,” said Zheng Kuo.

Pei Lingfeng hesitated, but Zheng Kuo carried the pot of noodles and walked out.

Pei Lingfeng had no choice but to follow him.

In Feifei’s courtyard, the children sat together at one table, while the adults sat at another.

Both tables were filled with dishes. It was indeed a lavish spread.

Pei Lingfeng was hungry.

“Daddy, you’re here too!” Doudou happily ran over to her father with her arms wide open for a hug.

“Whv didn’t you come back for lunch?” said Pei Lingfeng as he lifted hisdaughter into his arms. “We are being troublesome.”

“It’s okay. We can invite Auntie Tao and Uncle Zheng to our house for a meal,” said Doudou.

“Okay, it’s settled then. We’ll eat dinner at my house,” said Pei Lingfeng. The six families had been divided into two groups that day for lunch. Only Nannan and Michael weren’t present.

[It’s so lively! Zheng Kuo is so funny! He just picked up the pot and rushed here to make Pei Lingfeng follow him.]

[He was genuinely happy to invite them. Everyone should learn from this..]
