Chapter 103 Name
Chapter 103 Name
"Look how impatient you all are."
Feng Shuyuan, both amused and exasperated, brought over a few glasses of ice water.
"Eat slowly, it's all for you."
"Holding saliva in your mouth makes you feel much better."
The ninth and tenth brothers did as instructed, and sure enough, after a short while, their furrowed brows relaxed.
"Brother and sister, you should eat too."
Seeing the older children waiting for their turn, the ninth and tenth brothers also became a little anxious.
They genuinely wanted their older siblings to try this delicious food.
Seeing that the two little ones were getting impatient, Ying Ziping and the others also picked up their chopsticks and launched an attack on the hot pot.
Although they weren't very familiar with how to eat hot pot, almost every child couldn't help but exclaim in admiration as the aroma of the first slice of beef filled their mouths.
"This beef slice is so delicious!"
After swallowing a piece of beef, the sixth brother sighed contentedly.
"It feels like it melts in your mouth after just one bite!"
"Yes, yes! The meat smells amazing from the broth!"
The fifth brother also spoke up excitedly.
"I thought instant noodles were the best thing in the world this morning, but I never imagined there was something even better!"
The second son looked delighted. He hadn't put down his chopsticks yet, and he was still chewing on a slice of beef, but his eyes had already lit up.
"Instant noodles are delicious, but they are not very nutritious and need to be eaten with a nutritional supplement. If you ask me, beef is still the best."
A soldier who was nearby heard their conversation and happily chimed in.
He couldn't be more grateful to the major general right now.
If he weren't a major general, how would he have had the opportunity to come out with Boss Feng?
Where did I get the chance to eat something so delicious?
The ninth and tenth brothers also finished their ice-cooling ritual and rejoined the battle.
"You two be careful, don't get burned again!"
Seeing the two kids getting ready to play again, the fourth brother couldn't help but remind them.
"Fourth Sister, we will be careful."
The two children answered in perfect unison.
They're not twins, but they're even closer than twins.
They ate voraciously, as if trying to stuff every last bit of delicious food into their bellies.
"Don't just focus on eating meat, try the vegetables too, they're delicious."
Feng Shuyuan pointed to the perfectly cooked vegetables in the pot, reminding the children who were eating quickly.
You need to eat a variety of foods to achieve a balanced diet.
……
The atmosphere of the hot pot briefly brought everyone closer together.
As the dishes on the table gradually disappeared, the children's sense of satisfaction grew.
By the end of the meal, the children were so full that they slumped in their chairs, unwilling to even lift their chopsticks.
Therefore, people in this world really don't have very big appetites.
Looking at the children's table with almost half of their food left, and then at his own table which was spotless, Feng Shuyuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Seeing that the soldiers had already left to work, Feng Shuyuan and Ji Lu went to the children's table.
"Boss Feng, thank you so much... These two meals today were the best we've ever had."
The fourth brother spoke with a satisfied expression, his eyes filled with gratitude.
Feng Shuyuan smiled and waved his hand: "No need to thank me, eat more if you like it. You need to be full to have the energy to study well."
"Boss Feng, what are all these delicious things? How do you make them so delicious?"
The fifth brother looked at Feng Shuyuan with reverence.
Since they met Boss Feng, they have never gone hungry again.
In his mind, Boss Feng was the most powerful person besides his eldest brother.
"These are all local specialties of Anwar."
Feng Shuyuan smiled slightly.
"When you come to our home later, you'll be able to eat even more delicious food."
"Wow!"
The sixth brother looked on with anticipation.
Food is already so delicious these days, do you think there's even more delicious food at home?
"Oh, right, you haven't told me your names yet."
Ji Lu smacked her lips and suddenly spoke:
"I only know Ying Ziping's name. What are the other kids called? You can't really call them 'second brother' or 'third brother,' can you?"
Upon hearing this, Feng Shuyuan noticed that the children at the table stiffened visibly.
After exchanging glances, Ying Ziping, as the eldest brother, spoke with some difficulty:
"My younger siblings... they don't have names yet."
"no name?"
Feng Shuyuan frowned.
"Yes, Boss Feng."
The third brother answered in a low voice:
“We were all children picked up by our eldest brother, and we have almost no memories of our childhood. Besides, in the environment we lived in before, we hardly needed to be addressed by name.”
Despite saying this, the children all looked embarrassed.
Perhaps they never imagined that one day they would feel embarrassed because of their names.
There's no need for that expression.
Feng Shuyuan felt a pang of pain in her heart. But she didn't show it, instead revealing her usual smile.
"Not having a name also means that you are free to choose your own name, doesn't it?"
"kindness?"
Upon hearing Feng Shuyuan's viewpoint, the children all looked up, gazing at her with longing.
It's impossible to say that they haven't felt inferior about not having a name all these years.
However, given their previous living conditions, how could they have had the time to dwell on this issue for an extended period of time?
"Everyone's name is given by their parents and is determined at birth."
"That's why, now that you have the ability to think for yourself, aren't you freer to decide your names?"
"You are free to choose your surname, your given name, or who will choose your name. Isn't that a kind of happiness?"
Feng Shuyuan said with a smile.
"Really! We...we can decide for ourselves..."
The sixth brother stared at Feng Shuyuan with bright, sparkling eyes.
After they were taken away by Feng Shuyuan, she naturally assumed that everything about her would be arranged by Feng Shuyuan.
Who would have thought that I could decide my own name?
"Yes, that's why you all need to study even harder!"
"The more characters you recognize and the more meanings you understand, the better you can decide on your own name."
At this moment, it seemed as if a fox's tail was wagging behind Feng Shuyuan.
"Consider this homework for you, but don't rush, you can think about it slowly while you're studying."
The children were clearly very interested in the assignment; judging from their restless expressions, they seemed unable to contain their desire to discuss it.
However, given that Feng Shuyuan and the other person were still present, they were merely plotting and did not show any other intentions.
But how could Feng Shuyuan not see it?
"Alright, you can all go back to your rooms and rest."
She shooed the little radishes back into the room.
Watching the little ones whispering amongst themselves as they walked into the room, Ji Lu pouted.
Ah, Boss Feng really goes to great lengths to entice these little brats to study hard.
With Boss Feng's persuasive skills, it's a shame he's not involved in pyramid schemes.
However, looking at the smiles on the little ones' faces, Ji Lu sighed again.
Well, what Boss Feng said makes some sense.
