Zhuang Qingsui scratched her nose with a hint of awkwardness.
Kids, are inevitably playful, especially with such a lively companion at home, it’s hard to avoid being distracted.
Zhuang Qingning understood, she reached out and pinched Zhuang Qingsui’s nose, “You should be more careful in the future. If you want to be a teacher, you should work hard from now on, so you can fulfill your dreams and goals in the future.”
“I get it. I’ll definitely pay more attention.” Zhuang Qingsui stood upright, even going as far as to nod seriously.
“That’s good.” Zhuang Qingning chuckled, pulling out the neatly folded handkerchief from her lap, “Here, Sister Qiuying gave this to you. She said she embroidered it herself.”
“Let me see.”
Zhuang Qingsui impatiently took it over, looking at it over and over, her excitement made her nostrils red. “Qiuying is really skilled, the flowers she embroidered are so pretty.”
“Speaking of which, it’s been a while since I last saw Qiuying. I miss her very much, I’m sure she also misses me a lot.”
Which is why Qiuying specially sent a handkerchief to her, and asked Zhuang Qingning to bring it back.
“I’ll take you to town with me on your rest day, so that you two could have a nice chat.” Zhuang Qingning said with a smile.
“Sister is the best.” Zhuang Qingsui jumped joyfully, lunged forward and wrapped her arms around Zhuang Qingning’s neck, even kissing her cheek with a “mwah” sound.
This affectionate action made Zhuang Qingning feel very comfortable, especially seeing Zhuang Qingsui’s happy, glowing eyes was like a warm spring in her heart.
For the first time, she thought crossing over wasn’t such a bad idea after all.
[Please don’t forget about me, host! I’ve been working tirelessly to help you reach your life’s peak!]
Apparently, the inevitable self-promotion from ‘Five’ never stops!
Zhuang Qingning, feeling rather helpless, wanted to roll her eyes but decided against it. Instead, she squinted and laughed, giving ‘Five’ some well-deserved praise.
After being praised, ‘Five’ was overjoyed and expressed its heartfelt gratitude again before it slowly left.
It was getting late and Zhuang Qingning decided to prepare dinner, asking Qingsui what she wanted to eat.
Zhuang Qingsui suddenly smacked her forehead, “I almost forgot about dinner until you mentioned it. Before you came home, Sister Zhou came over and invited us to join the family dinner at Aunt Wen’s house tonight. She said they caught a big carp and Sister Zhou’s going to make sweet and sour fish.”
“Since you weren’t here, I accepted the invitation on both of our behalf and said we’d definitely come. The time’s getting on, let’s get ready and head over.”
They were both close to Aunt Wen’s family, so there was no need to turn down the invitation. Zhuang Qingning washed her hands and together with Zhuang Qingsui, they both left the house, also bringing a piece of marinated pork liver that Zhang Yongchang had generously given her on her visit to town earlier today.
Pork liver is believed to be good for the eyes. The marinated pork liver tastes great when served chilled or stir-fried, making it a perfect dish for the hot summer days.
“Here’s Ning, come and take a seat.” Mrs. Han had already set the table in the courtyard and was getting the chopsticks and bowls ready. “We were just saying that if you don’t come soon, we would have Daya come look for you. It’s just as well that you’ve arrived.”
We specifically timed our arrival to match dinner time, so you didn’t have to wait.” Zhuang Qingning joked as she took out the pork liver, “I’ll go to the kitchen and prepare this pork liver. We’re having an extra dish tonight. This is specially made by chef Zhang, it tastes great.”
Last time when she prepared food, though Mrs. Han and Zhou Daya were not there, Mrs. Wen tasted Zhang Yongchang’s cooking. After hearing Zhuang Qingning’s words, she agreed, “This definitely would be delicious. Add some green onions would be nice.”
