Chapter 143: A Sumptuous Dinner (2) (1/2)
“There’s also a packet of medicine that I’ve concocted. Just put it into a teapot, or boil it in a pot, and let Aunt Jiang drink it. If she drinks this for some time, her health will slowly improve. You must remember to give it to her.”
The black woolen scarf felt cozy around his neck. The girl was standing so close that Mo Beihan could almost smell the faint herbal smell on her body.
“Yao Yao!”
“Hmm?”
Mo Beihan just looked at the young girl, who was standing on a bench to arrange his scarf, but did not say anything. He just smiled and patted her head. “It’s cold out here. Go back in!”
“Alright! Be careful on your way home. The roads are slippery in winter.”
“Alright!”
Mo Beihan took the things that his wife had given him. The wind and the snow were chilly as he walked home, but his heart was warm!
When he got home, his mother and nephews were still awake. They were warming themselves around the fire!
Jiang Yingqiu smiled when she saw that Mo Beihan was back. “You’re back!”
Mo Beihan nodded. He went to the kitchen for a ladle, bowls and chopsticks. He knew that his mother and the two children had already eaten, but they definitely did not have much. The mutton soup was still hot, they might as well eat it straight away.
In any case, he was here. He would not let them go hungry.
“Yao Yao cooked this. You should try it!”
When he opened the jar, the aroma immediately wafted out, and the two children leaned over.
“It smells wonderful!”
Mo Beihan poured a bowl for each of them.
