Chapter 667: 183: The Show Begins! _6
Lin Fang declined, “Furong, I can’t accept it. I only gifted you the mbership card because I felt we had a strong connection, not because I’m after your stuff.”
“Just take it.” Shangguan Furong was not one to be petty.
Helplessly, Lin Fang accepted it.
After Lin Fang left, Shangguan Furong also departed the Zhao household.
With Shangguan Furong’s departure, the atmosphere in the Zhao house instantly lightened.
The smile had returned to Grandma Zhao’s face.
...
Lin Fang, who had previously left, returned monts later. This ti, she held a thermos to her hand.
“Grandma, I heard you often have headaches. I made you so Gastrodia Chicken Soup specially. It’s very good for the head,” Lin Fang removed the lid from the thermos and ladled out a bowl of soup for Grandma Zhao.
“Thank you, Xiaolin.” The old lady accepted the soup with a face full of smiles.
As the matriarch of the Zhao family, was she lacking in chicken soup?
What she lacked was a gesture of kindness!
Shangguan Furong had never once shown such filial piety!
Lin Fang was really wonderful. She was kind, gentle, and understanding.
Why hadn’t Zhao Shen t such a good person?
“Grandma, Furong and I are good friends. Making you a bowl of soup is no big deal, I just hope you don’t mind,” Lin Fang said.
“Look at you, talking like that! I’m more than happy to have it! Why would I mind?” Grandma Zhao drained the bowl of soup in one gulp.
The taste of the Gastrodia was slightly bitter, so Lin Fang promptly handed over a piece of honey loquat.
Grandma Zhao took it, laughing, “Xiaolin, you’re a really thoughtful child.”
Lin Fang replied, “Maybe because I’m used to being around children a lot. I’ve got used to it.”
Grandma Zhao nodded approvingly.
Not long after, Zhao Zijun and Zhao Ziqing, the two siblings arrived ho from school.
“Zijun, Ziqing.”
“Auntie Lin Fang.” The siblings imdiately rushed over to greet her. They seed more excited to see her than their own mother.
Shangguan Furong was often harsh to others, including her own children.
This led to the siblings being quite fearful of Shangguan Furong and not very close to her.
Lin Fang then opened the second layer of her lunch box, “Zijun, Ziqing, didn’t you two say last ti that you liked Auntie’s dumplings? I specially made so for you today.”
Zhao Zijun and Zhao Ziqing, who were ten and eight years old, respectively, really relished treats.
“Thank you, Auntie Lin Fang!” The siblings imdiately started wolfing down the dumplings.
The dumplings were delicious!
Despite them being only minced pork and leek dumplings, they were irresistible. Plus, they were beautifully made.
“Auntie Lin Fang, you’re so amazing!”
With a modest smile, Lin Fang said, “It’s just a plate of dumplings. If you two like it, I can make them more often and bring them over to you.”
“Really?” The siblings looked at her, stunned.
“Of course!” Lin Fang nodded.
Zhao Ziqing said, “Auntie Lin Fang, I wish you were our mother, so my brother and I could have these delicious dumplings every day.”
Zhao Zijun, sensing this comnt might be inappropriate, pulled at Zhao Ziqing’s sleeve.
Zhao Ziqing asked, “Brother, why are you pulling ? I didn’t say anything wrong! Our mother doesn’t even like us! We’d be better off with Auntie Lin Fang being our mother!”
Zhao Zijun was two years older than Zhao Ziqing and more sensible.
Even though their mother wasn’t very attentive to them, a mother is, after all, a mother!
The speaker may not an it, but the listener may take it to heart.
A flash of light glowed in Grandma Zhao’s eyes.
Lin Fang approached, “Ziqing, you can’t just say whatever you want! If your mother heard it, she will be heartbroken!”
“Let her be heartbroken.” Zhao Ziqing responded nonchalantly.
Lin Fang continued, “Promise Auntie, you won’t say such things anymore, otherwise, Auntie won’t co to see you two!”
Perhaps the last sentence scared Zhao Ziqing, who nodded and said, “Okay, I won’t say it.” In her heart, however, she truly wished that Lin Fang was her mother.
Shangguan Furong invited Jia Zhenzhen, Zhao Yiyun, and Su Manlin to Guose Tianxiang.
The four won t at the entrance of Guose Tianxiang.
Jia Zhenzhen asked, “Furong, don’t tell you really have a mbership card for Guose Tianxiang?”
“Of course,” Shangguan Furong took out the Black Card and flaunted it, “See, isn’t this it?”
Jia Zhenzhen took the Black Card while the others imdiately huddled around to take a look.
