Chapter 39: Elma was stunned after winning two games

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

After saying goodbye to Philip, Monn immediately went home!

Things had been quite chaotic these few days, and he didn’t even buy much food.

For Meng En who was used to working from nine to five, and had every period of time well allocated, it was absolutely unforgivable that he didn’t buy food and cook.

Meng En could even imagine that the lady boss of the vegetable store and the aunties at the market would miss the way he bargained.

Thinking about it again...

Little Elma was about to finish school. It would be awkward if there were no dishes to eat at home!

Even if he was hungry, he could not let little Elma starve and mumbled, “Daddy, you forgot to buy food. Elma won’t cook for you anymore!”

Thinking of this, Meng En kept speeding up that he even used some saint power.

It was not even enough time for a cup of afternoon tea, the city was right in front of him.

Coming to Saint Selvan City, Meng En quickly rushed to Aunt Mamie’s vegetable shop!

Although it was not the time for a discount, there were no vegetables at home, so Meng En did not care about this little money.

“Oh! Mr. Meng En, it seems that you haven’t been here for a few days!”

Outside the vegetable shop, before Meng en entered, a warm voice of a woman came from inside!

As expected, Meng En thought so in his heart.

Then, he nodded with a smile and walked into the store,

“Mrs. Sandy, you’re the one selling vegetables today! Where’s Aunt Mamie?”

The tall woman in front of him, whose figure could be described as “robust”, was Aunt Mamie’s daughter-in-law.

In the past, when Meng En came to buy vegetables, he had met her a few times!

Ever since this Madam Sandy had seen Meng En once.

She always wanted to introduce her younger sister to Meng En.

Every time, the corner of Meng En’s mouth twitched as he refused!

Not to mention that he was not ready to get married yet.

Even if he was, looking at Madam Sandy’s figure, Meng En would not dare to marry her younger sister!

It was not that Meng En had any resistance towards a woman with a robust figure.

He simply prefered beautiful women.

“Mom is resting today. She might be shopping at the market with the auntie next door...”

Madam Sandy replied enthusiastically and then winked at Meng En.

“Hey, Mr. Meng En, seriously, do you want to meet my younger sister?”

“She’s a beauty! That’s what my family says!”

Meng En’s temples throbbed, and he quickly waved his hand to reject the offer!

It didn’t matter if she was good-looking or not, the main thing was that he really couldn’t control her figure!

“Mr. Meng En, you’re just too shy!”

I’m not shy! I’m scared!

Meng En’s heart was filled with bitterness.

Then he joked, “If she’s a beautiful woman like the Princess of a kingdom, I’ll consider it...”

“Really?” Sandy pursed her lips and snickered.

Soon, Meng En picked a few vegetables.

Cabbage, broccoli...

Anyway, the final destiny of these vegetables was to be washed and directly cooked.

So Meng En didn’t care much about the type!

As long as it was vegetables, they could basically be vitamin supplements.

“These will do.”

Madam Sandy took the vegetables Meng En picked and weighed them on a scale that looked antique.

She smiled and saidm

“Two shillings and six pence!”

Meng En nodded and handed her a five shillings coin.

After Madam Sandy gave him back the two shillings and fourteen pence coin.

Meng En nodded politely and walked out of the vegetable shop.

Behind him, Meng En could still vaguely hear Madam Sandy’s muttering,

“Mr. Meng En is good in every way, but he’s too shy...”

The corner of his mouth twitched as he walked towards old John’s beef shop.

Meat was a must-have food in Meng En’s house. Firstly, Meng En had to consume a lot of it himself, and secondly, when Elma was growing, she needed more nutrition.

“Beef, steak...”

Meng En picked and chose, and soon picked out a good amount of meat.

...

Ten minutes later, Meng En returned home.

In his hands, he was already carrying a large pile of ingredients!

Because he did not buy them at discount time, the total price was slightly higher than usual, costing a total of 11 shillings!

When he reached home, little Elma had not came back yet.

Meng En hurriedly washed the ingredients and made the Old Three Dishes!

Not long after.

Little Elma’s voice came from outside the door.

“Daddy Meng En, I’m Back!”

“Alma’s back? Come and eat!”

“It can’t be beef soup, boiled vegetables, and baked bread again, right?”

“Umm... balanced nutrition, balanced nutrition!”

Meng En smiled awkwardly and placed the Old Three Dishes on the table.

Of course, there was still some leftover fish on the table from the morning, so Meng En warmed it up a little.

Although little Alma disliked it, she was still very happy when she ate.

“Dad! Something interesting happened in school today. Lena was last in the running test in physical education class today.”

“Isn’t she the best in your class?”

“She has the best academic performance, but her physique is a little weak.”

“What about Elma’s physique?”

“Me?” Elma pointed at herself with her fingers and said proudly, “I can beat dad to the ground!”

“...” Meng En praised her lovingly, “Yes, yes, yes, little Elma is the best...”

After the father and daughter finished their meal, little Elma took the initiative to help Meng En clean up the kitchen and the dining room.

Meng En smiled with relief and praised little Elma!

After dinner, it was the usual “Five-In-A-Row chess game” between the two of them!

Today, Meng En was lucky enough to win two out of ten games!

Little Elma was stunned!

At nine thirty, Meng En was on his bed on time.
