Finally, a party of six, and no one’s hands were empty.
All six entered the living room, making quite a bit of noise. Yu Shuling, wearing an apron, walked to the kitchen doorway and looked out, "Have Huaijin and Yueyue come back?"
Surprised to see Yu Luowan and Luo Fenghe, Yu Shuling asked with a tinge of excitement, "Wanwan, Feng He, you guys are here too?"
"Auntie." Yu Luowan immediately called out obediently.
"Ah, good girl." While responding to Yu Luowan, Yu Shuling walked briskly to Luo Fenghe and sized him up and down, "Feng He, what brings you here? Are you feeling better?"
"Aunt Yu." Luo Fenghe first greeted her, then nodded at Yu Shuling, "I’m all better now."
"Ah, better? You’ve gotten so skinny, what’s that about?" As she spoke, she took the items from Luo Fenghe’s hands and couldn’t help but turn to Gu Huaijin, "Gu Huaijin, why aren’t you taking care of your wife? She’s lost so much weight, on top of that, you let Feng He carry things."
He raised his hand, touched his nose awkwardly, and didn’t say a word.
Speaking up at this time clearly wasn’t the wisest choice.
"Don’t just stand there, go on and sit down after putting your things away." Yu Shuling urged everyone as she pulled Luo Fenghe towards the couch, "Feng He, you sit down. Huaijin, next time, give us a heads-up when you bring someone over. If I had known earlier, I would have stewed a nourishing soup for you."
Luo Fenghe smiled amiably, "There’s no need to go through the trouble, I have it at home every day, I won’t miss a meal or two. Aunt Yu, please don’t busy yourself over me."
"That won’t do, not even one meal can be missed. I will stew it for you in a bit." She said, and reaching out, she touched Luo Fenghe’s face, "Oh my, you’ve lost so much weight in your face."
"Mom, the vegetables." Noticing that Yu Shuling was on the verge of chatting with Luo Fenghe for an eternity, Gu Mengyang spoke up, giving her a nudge.
Upon hearing this, Yu Shuling remembered that she still had to cook.
"Ah, that’s right, I need to cook. Feng He, you all sit for a bit. I need to go cook." As Yu Shuling spoke, she quickly stood up, heading to the kitchen, but she didn’t forget to look back at Gu Mengyang, "Yangyang, bring the vegetables over."
"Right away." Gu Mengyang immediately picked up the vegetables and headed to the kitchen.
"Auntie, let me help you." Yu Luowan quickly darted into the kitchen after Gu Mengyang.
"Help with what? Go play with Yueyue, Qiqi, and Feng He." Yu Shuling said, trying to shoo Yu Luowan out of the kitchen.
"If you don’t let me cook with you, I’ll be upset all day. Besides, I can play on any other day, but cooking with you isn’t something I can do every day."
"Auntie~ please let me help you~" Yu Luowan clung to Yu Shuling, putting on an act of cutesy begging and pleading.
Yu Shuling couldn’t help but laugh and cry at her antics, hardly daring to refuse.
Fearing that denying her help would cause her to cry, she simply allowed her to stay, "Alright then, you stay."
Yu Luowan became Yu Shuling’s little helper and was thrilled, "Thank you, Auntie~"
After thanking her, Yu Luowan cheekily said, "Hehe, Auntie, can I film a video?"
Yu Luowan was a food blogger who enjoyed making all sorts of dishes and then uploading the videos online. Yu Shuling knew this well and waved her hand without much concern, "Whatever suits you, just don’t film my face."
"Ah, Auntie, you’re so pretty and yet you won’t let me film you. It looks like my fans are out of luck." Yu Luowan sounded a bit disappointed, but then she started chuckling again, "I was even thinking of telling them you’re my sister."
"You flatterer, here, help me pick the vegetables first."
Yu Luowan cheered, "Got it!"
