When they returned home, Cheng Su had a sip of hot tea before she started preparing the New Year’s Eve dinner. Qi Taiguo, instead of helping and getting in the way, stayed to chat with their son and parents, while Qi Fengping actively went to the kitchen to help out.
Cheng Su and Qi Taiguo had some time to themselves and were in a great mood, humming a tune while deftly washing and chopping.
Qi Fengping was also by her side, helping with the vegetables and washing. Seeing Cheng Su’s radiant look, she couldn’t help but tease, "Sis, you and my brother went out to buy groceries but came back looking like you just visited a beauty salon, with your cheeks looking all rosy like a young girl."
Cheng Su turned her head and said, "You’re just talking nonsense, aren’t you?"
"I’m speaking the truth; your complexion truly looks radiant. As they say, women need love." Qi Fengping, looking at her lips, whispered, "Sis, did you and my brother do something naughty?"
"What naughty thing? Stop making stuff up!" Cheng Su glared at her. This cheeky girl dares to say anything.
"Deny it all you want, but your lips are chapped." Qi Fengping pointed to the corner of Cheng Su’s mouth, saying, "I mean, how long does it take to buy groceries?"
"You’re still talking." Cheng Su put down the potato and tickled her, saying, "We just sat in the café downstairs for a while, and you make it sound like an affair!"
Qi Fengping giggled, pleading, "Good sister-in-law, it’s my fault. Forgive me!"
After teasing her enough, Cheng Su let her go, humming, "See if you dare to make fun of me again!" and picked up the potato to peel it once more.
"I’m not really making fun of you; it’s just that I think you and my brother have a good relationship!" Qi Fengping said, "You got married in ’85, and now it’s just hours to ’90, so it’s been five, six years. Keeping a good relationship is rare. It seems you truly like my brother. No wonder you clung to him even before you got married."
