“I don’t think so,” Su Qingsang sighed. “I can probably understand her without one.”
Huo Jinyao nodded and said, “Good, then we have one more mother to take care of.”
Xiang Caiping did not look like a sophisticated person. Huo Jinyao thought about his investigation and believed there was nothing bad about her.
Su Qingsang looked at Huo Jinyao, a little touched. She opened her mouth but suddenly realized that the word “thank you” seemed too simple.
“What?” Huo Jinyao leaned over and pulled her into his arms. “Do you suddenly realize your husband is so unbelievably handsome? Do you feel like you found a treasure?”
“Drive.” This man could not remain serious for more than three minutes in her presence.
Jinyao approached her and kissed her on the cheek. “Yes, Madam,” he answered.
When they got home, Xiang Caiping was standing in front of the table. She had just put soup on the table. Seeing Su Qingsang come in, she rubbed her hands on her apron.
“You are back. Are you tired? I made dinner.”
“Where is Sister Lu?” Su Qingsang asked, looking into the kitchen. “You can leave these kinds of things to Sister Lu.”
“It’s okay. I was idle anyway.” Xiang Caiping looked at her nervously, thinking Su Qingsang was angry. “I just wanted to do something for you. I really didn’t mean anything by it.”
“Aunt.” Su Qingsang could not help sighing in her mind. “I didn’t mean to blame you. I’m just telling you that you don’t have to do these things.”
Xiang Caiping stood there at a loss, not knowing what to do.
Su Qingsang felt helpless again and turned to look at Huo Jinyao, who had just changed his shoes. “Exactly, Aunt. Since you are here, you are our elder. How can we let you do these things? Leave them to Sister Lu.”
“Ok. Well, these…” Xiang Caiping looked at the food on the table warily. Su Qingsang somehow felt sorry.
“That’s all right. Let’s eat.”
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.”
“It doesn’t matter. Sit down, Aunt.”
Su Qingsang was never a harsh person and this person was her biological mother.
Huo Jinyao had had some doubts in his mind, half of which had disappeared after the investigation. The other half disappeared now that he saw what she did for them.
The dinner was rather quiet. Xiang Caiping ate silently and only ate the food in front of her. Su Qingsang was sorry to see that and put some food in her bowl.
Xiang Caiping’s eyes immediately turned red at Su Qingsang’s action, as if she was about to cry.
Su Qingsang was made uncomfortable by her response and did not dare to do that again. She ate quietly.
After dinner, Xiang Caiping stood up to collect the bowls again. Su Qingsang didn’t stop her, but followed Huo Jinyao to the living room and sat down.
She looked in the direction of the kitchen and then at Huo Jinyao. “You said she had business in Rong City before?” She asked.
“Yeah.”
“Doing well?”
“Not badly. Although it’s not in first-tier cities, she has supermarket chains in several second and third-tier prefecture-level cities. The chains don’t seem bad.”
“She must have had a hard time these past few years, right?”
“I don’t think so,” Su Qingsang sighed. “I can probably understand her without one.”
Huo Jinyao nodded and said, “Good, then we have one more mother to take care of.”
