Chapter 255 Even Foodies Are Picky Eaters
Grandma Qin was momentarily stunned. Initially, she attributed Zhouzhou's refusal to eat meat to her previous life as a little Taoist. But now, upon hearing this, she suddenly felt that something was off. Li Yuanming was not a reliable person.
She quickly exchanged a glance with Qin Lie, who understood and made a phone call. Unfortunately, Li Yuanming didn't answer, so Qin Lie dialed Mu Xuan's number instead.
Mu Xuan was sleeping at the moment, and upon hearing the call, he yawned and said, "Well, before Zhouzhou came up the mountain, Sanqing Temple used to eat meat. But after Zhouzhou arrived and we couldn't afford meat anymore, the master was afraid that she would break her vegetarian vows and crave meat. So he decided that the entire Taoist temple would go vegetarian."
Just as Grandma Qin suspected! She clenched her teeth, realizing that Li Yuanming was behind all of this.
Sanqing Temple emphasized inaction, non-contention, and going with the flow, so they didn't have many strict rules regarding eating meat. The main focus was on cultivating the heart. But poor little Zhouzhou was born with a lack of financial luck and had a big appetite. Li Yuanming couldn't resist fooling her.
Upon hearing this, Zhouzhou looked as if her world had been shaken. She scratched her head, tilted it, and asked in confusion, "Eldest Senior Brother, so does that mean we can eat meat?"
"Yes, we can, Sanqing Temple doesn't have so many rules."
But even that was just something Li Yuanming made up on the spot for her.
Mu Xuan added, "By the way, the master has also secretly eaten meat before."
Zhouzhou looked incredulous. "But when we went back before, the master also ate vegetarian food."
"Oh, about that, the master was afraid you would find out and that your family would discover his deception, and then they wouldn't donate money to the temple anymore. So he continued eating vegetarian food in front of you. Didn't you notice he gained some weight?"
She thought he gained weight from eating more vegetables!
Zhouzhou pouted, feeling wronged, and pointed her chubby little finger. She said with a sullen expression, "Master is bad."
Mu Xuan chuckled lightly. "Zhouzhou, don't take everything the master says to heart. He's not a reliable person."
"Um." Zhouzhou's voice sounded muffled as she drooped her little head. She said in a miserable tone, "Master lied to me."
The little girl looked so miserable that even through the screen, Mu Xuan could sense it. He wished he could immediately rush to the Qin family and hug her, comforting her by saying, "It's alright. Next time I go back, I'll help you beat up the master."
"That won't work," Zhouzhou became anxious. "If we hurt the master, he'll just lie on the ground and let us support him in his old age! He's been looking forward to that day!"
"Pfft—" Mu Xuan couldn't hold back and burst into laughter. He couldn't help but admit that Zhouzhou understood Li Yuanming in certain aspects.
The Qin family burst into laughter as well.
It turned out to be a misunderstanding, so they could rest assured now.
"Yes!" Zhouzhou nodded vigorously. Qin Lie walked towards the roast duck. It was prepared by Grandma Qin specifically for Zhouzhou, intending to give it to her if she was willing to eat. But unexpectedly, Zhouzhou didn't eat the roast duck and instead developed a liking for the pancakes!
In the end, Qin Lie could only watch as Grandma Qin fried a plate of shredded potatoes, which Zhouzhou wrapped in the pancakes, eating all ten of them, while ten roast ducks were left untouched.
Grandma Qin's mouth twitched, and she couldn't help but glare at Qin Lie. He indulged Zhouzhou, didn't he?
That's what she said, but hadn't she always indulged Zhouzhou as well? She had tried various methods to entice her to eat, but she couldn't bring herself to say anything harsh.
An Ya watched this scene, laughing so much that her soul trembled. She couldn't contain her joy and laughed until her stomach hurt. She leaned against Ye Lingfeng, still laughing uncontrollably.
Ye Lingfeng was also unable to stop laughing.
Only Grandma Qin was the one worrying, unable to sleep as she tossed and turned. Grandpa Qin, seeing this, couldn't sleep either and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I'm worried about Zhouzhou! This Li Yuanming is so unreliable. He keeps tricking Zhouzhou." Grandma Qin complained.
Last time, Zhouzhou almost became a baldy, and now she might become a stunted child. She had never seen such an unreliable master as Li Yuanming!
Grandpa Qin thought for a moment and suggested, "Why don't we ask Old Zhou for ideas? There are many people at school, and the meals are all provided together. Let's tell Zhouzhou to integrate with the group and not have special treatment. Everyone eats meat, and she might start eating meat gradually too."
That's a good idea!
Grandma Qin's eyes lit up. She thought of a solution and felt more at ease. Finally, she managed to get a good night's sleep.
They wasted no time and the next day, Grandma Qin brought a cart full of meat to the kindergarten and said to the principal, "Old Zhou, please make a few more meat dishes in the future and see if we can get Zhouzhou to eat some."
Make a few more variations, and there must be one that Zhouzhou likes, right?
However, the principal misunderstood and patted his chest, saying, "Don't worry, it's a small matter. Leave it to me."
Not eating meat? Then mix it in with the dishes. After all, she couldn't avoid eating it, right?
So, at lunchtime, Zhouzhou happily ran to the cafeteria and looked at the dishes on the plates but paused.
She used her chopsticks to search and quickly found the meat inside. She then leaned closer to the soup, sniffed, and quickly covered her nose, pushing the plate aside. They all had meat.
She looked around and suddenly her eyes lit up.
The principal was serving food at the counter, feeling proud when he saw Zhouzhou coming with an empty bowl. "See, she's eating!"
However, Zhouzhou stood on tiptoes, holding up her empty bowl, and said, "Grandpa, give me twenty bowls of plain rice!"
