Chapter 1874: 095, Mother and Daughter et_3
Lin Yuan always knew that Xiao He was a very sensible and good child, but she didn’t realize even her crying was so restrained.
However, feeling Xiao He’s sobs, Lin Yuan also felt her longing and attachnt to Lady Chen, even though that woman didn’t stand up when Lin Dashuan was hitting her, even though that woman abandoned her after Lin Dashuan went to prison, but she was her birth mother, after all!
For a long ti, until Xiao He’s sobbing stopped, Lin Yuan gently patted her back and asked about the purpose of this trip: “Xiao He, have you ever thought of going to see your mother again?”
The person in her arms shivered instinctively, Lin Yuan knew her heart was moved.
“Big sister.”
A muffled voice ca, and Lin Yuan heard Xiao He say, “Do you rember the full moon celebration of the second aunt’s son? When we went back to Zhuma Town, I seed to have seen my mother. It’s just that when I turned back to find her, I couldn’t find her, I thought I missed her so much that I was seeing things.”
Lin Yuan was silent, maybe it wasn’t Xiao He seeing things, maybe she truly saw Lady Chen.
Wasn’t Wan Jinnian doing business with the Capital city? Maybe that’s when Wan Jinnian brought Lady Chen to the Capital city for business.
Who would have thought that the passing by would let Xiao He feel it, too.
And now, Wan Jinnian has settled in the Capital city, Lady Chen wouldn’t leave the Capital city. In the future, they could see each other anyti, who knows when they might et.
Lin Yuan secretly nodded, helping Xiao He up by her shoulder, looking at her red eyes, she said: “Xiao He, go and make a new dish of Beijing Shredded Pork, later, deliver it to the main hall yourself. I’ll ask Shopowner Liu to take you there.”
What?
Xiao He was montarily stunned, but she was a smart child, as long as she connected everything Lin Yuan had said before and after, she could guess the reason behind being asked to deliver the dish.
“Big sister, you, you an…”
Tears surged again in Xiao He’s eyes, Lin Yuan hurriedly helped wipe her tears, feeling both heartache and happiness for her: “Go cook first, the rest we’ll talk about later.”
“Yes, okay, I’ll go right away!”
Wiping away the tears, Xiao He almost ran back to the kitchen.
Watching her almost jubilant figure, Lin Yuan worried for her again, what if later she finds out her mother has beco soone else’s second wife, might she still be able to smile?
However, she didn’t want to tell her about this matter, so things are better faced alone.
For the mother and daughter, in the end, she was an outsider.
Upon hearing that she was to cook for her mother, Xiao He’s emotions were unusually high.
Even the at chosen was carefully selected, she even sliced the tenderloin into square pieces before cutting them into shreds, making them almost of uniform thickness and length. The scallion and cucumber used as garnishes were even more ticulously sliced.
A dish of Beijing Shredded Pork normally takes a tea-ti to finish, but today it took nearly double the ti.
Even other chefs in the kitchen noticed sothing off with Xiao He, although she was usually very diligent with everything, she had never been as serious as she was today.
What surprised them more was that usually quiet Xiao He was exceptionally cheerful today, her little face like a freshly blood spring flower, beautiful and bright.
Gao Xuan, who was working with Xiao He managing the first-floor main hall, couldn’t help but glance at her a couple more tis, his lips involuntarily curling into a smile.
Lin Yuan stood outside the kitchen, watching Xiao He’s performance, feeling more apprehensive inside, not knowing whether what happens next would be good or bad.
Shopkeeper Liu was already waiting at the door, looking at Xiao He curiously after hearing Lin Yuan’s words.
But after all, he was an experienced old man, with a little thought, he quickly guessed the relationship between Lady Chen and Xiao He.
Thinking of this, Shopkeeper Liu couldn’t help but worry, he discreetly arranged for a few adept guards to stay nearby, in case Xiao He suffered, they could promptly step in.
Of course, that was the worst-case scenario, they still hoped Xiao He and Lady Chen could reunite, and Jin Wannian wouldn’t stop them.
After a busy period, Xiao He’s dish was finally ready. After serving it out, Xiao He carefully wiped the sauce accidentally sared on the plate’s edges with a handkerchief she carried with her.
