Mr. Chen looked at Jiang Xue with surprise and said, "Girl, not bad, you even tasted the flavor of your mother’s cooking."
"Sorry to make you laugh, Mr. Chen."
"These dishes are pretty good too, have a taste of each." Under Mr. Chen’s eager gaze, Jiang Xue tried all the other dishes.
Although she can cook herself, the difference is clear when a chef cooks—the flavors are just different. The food was so delicious that she almost wanted to swallow her tongue.
At that moment, Jiang Xue silently vowed to earn more money. Even if she can’t cook such delicious dishes, she can at least afford to eat here often in the future.
After they finished eating, they sat in the restaurant for a while before paying the bill and leaving. Jiang Xue was the one treating, and Mr. Chen didn’t fight over the bill with her.
Luckily, the meal wasn’t too expensive, just over two hundred yuan. In the past, Jiang Xue would have felt a pinch, as she had no money then.
But it’s different now; she has money, and Mr. Chen helped her a lot, so treating him to a meal was the right thing to do.
After paying, they sat for another half hour before finally leaving.
They had explored the antique market all morning, but not thoroughly, so they went to see the remaining areas.
By the time they finished, it was four o’clock. Seeing it was getting late, Jiang Xue bid Mr. Chen farewell and hurried home.
On the way, she bought some meat and snacks, and by the time she got home, it was nearly six o’clock.
At home, Mu Siwu and Bai Yuhua were waiting anxiously. Last time, Jiang Xue had come back by five o’clock. But today, it was already this late and she still hadn’t returned.
Bai Yuhua wanted to go to the main road to check, but there was a child in the house. She had no choice but to say to Mu Siwu, "Old partner, go and see. Xue’er hasn’t come back yet, and I’m a bit worried."
"Alright, you stay at home with the child, I’ll go have a look." Mu Siwu nodded and went out. As soon as he exited the courtyard, he saw Jiang Xue and felt relieved.
He stepped forward to take the things Jiang Xue was carrying and asked with a smile, "Xue’er, why are you so late today?"
"I was delayed by something today," Jiang Xue said as she followed Mu Siwu inside. Bai Yuhua, hearing the commotion, had already come out of the room.
Seeing Jiang Xue return, she also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Xue’er, why are you so late today? Did something come up and delay you?"
"I did encounter something," Jiang Xue smiled, then stepped forward to hold Little Reunion.
Surprisingly, Bai Yuhua avoided her and said, "You just got back, go wash your face first."
"Okay!" Jiang Xue nodded, went to the well to pump some water, and then washed her face.
After washing, she went to pick up Little Reunion and then told her in-laws about today’s events.
When Mu Siwu and Bai Yuhua heard that Jiang Xue’s calligraphy would be exhibited and she had to stay in the city for a few days, they couldn’t help but worry.
Bai Yuhua first thought about Jiang Xue’s safety and said, "Xue’er, can you handle taking the child so far on your own? How about I and your dad accompany you?" ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ NoveIꜰire.net
Jiang Xue knew that she would have to take the child for a few days. Of course, she could also leave the child in the space temporarily. However, that would mean she would frequently have to enter and leave the space. After all, Little Fox is an animal, and changing diapers and such still needs to be done by herself.
After some thought, she felt it would be better if her in-laws came along. This way, when she has things to do, they can help take care of the child.
