"No, no, no, this is for my wife to eat..."
Luo Buyu's smile carried the weight of years and a hint of helplessness.
Good heavens, he never expected that in this day and age, he would be scolded because his son-in-law performed better than him.
He almost had a delusion.
Perhaps later, he should seek advice from Lin Xiao, to see if there were any suitable ways to coax Li Xin into talking.
Luo Qinghan was rendered speechless by this. Her own parents were joining in the teasing?
During the meal, Luo Qinghan took the opportunity to ask Xun'er, "Xun'er, about what we talked about before, doing pottery with Daddy, how did it go? Is it done?"
Luo Qinghan didn't think too much about it; she just suddenly remembered it was Xun'er's homework, and she asked casually. Going out today was primarily for homework.
"Mommy, Daddy said, it's best not to talk about this matter."
Xun'er said mysteriously, shaking her head. She also secretly glanced at Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao rolled his eyes. This little girl.
"What is it? What do you mean, 'best not to talk about'?"
Luo Qinghan found it peculiar. Didn't they agree to take Xun'er to do homework? Why couldn't the homework be discussed?
"Mommy, look!"
Xun'er took out the thing they had put together haphazardly.
"Oh, this gourd is made quite well. These few gourd leaves also look quite lifelike," Luo Qinghan said, examining the gourd.
"Mommy! This is not a gourd!"
Xun'er raised her voice and explained loudly, "This, Daddy and I made, a penguin!"
"A penguin?"
Luo Qinghan stared at the little girl, then at the object. She couldn't understand.
Let alone her, Luo Buyu and his wife couldn't understand either.
"Yes, a penguin."
Xun'er then pointed at the gourd and said, "Look, these are the eyes, this is the nose, this is..."
"Lin Xiao, is this how you help Xun'er with her homework?"
Luo Qinghan's entire attention was now focused on Lin Xiao. This guy claimed he was very capable, but what happened? He made a gourd and called it a penguin? Don't think you can call a deer a horse just because you're the Dragon King!
"It's just that... a little accident happened?" Lin Xiao chuckled sheepishly. He hadn't intended for it, but it was a truly wonderful accident. He genuinely didn't know his talent in pottery had reached such a pathetic level.
He would never do anything artistic again in this lifetime.
"What accident? One that made you accidentally turn a penguin into a gourd?" Luo Qinghan looked at him, uncomprehending.
"Ahem... it's just, I'm surprised I have no talent for pottery."
Lin Xiao chuckled sheepishly, then continued, "It's not too bad. At least, as a gourd, this thing is quite functional."
"Lin Xiao, from now on, be clear. You don't need to participate in this kind of after-school homework."
Facing Lin Xiao's smile, Luo Qinghan took a deep breath and emphasized her words to Lin Xiao. Compared to Lin Xiao's sheepish grin, Luo Qinghan was clearly not in a good mood.
"Ah? You don't mean that..."
"Leave your child's homework to me. From now on, you just find a place to watch from the side and see how I teach him!"
Luo Qinghan interrupted Lin Xiao's futile resistance. This matter was essentially settled.
