Chapter 277 - I Can Understand Her. (2/2)

They washed their hands and sat down at the table.

Xiang Caiping had made the local specialties of Lin City. There were so many that they covered the whole table.

Seeing Su Qingsang sit down, she seemed very happy again. “I don’t know what you like. I made these in the old ways of Lin City,” she said. “I don’t know whether the cooking style here has changed or not after so many years.”

Su Qingsang was never a harsh person and this person was her biological mother.

Su Qingsang was made uncomfortable by her response and did not dare to do that again. She ate quietly.

“She must have had a hard time these past few years, right?”
