Chapter 787: Visiting the Su Family
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
An Yun simply added, “Alright, your aunt has made a big bone soup in the kitchen. We’ll have it for dinner.”
Su Bing had already ascended a few steps of the staircase when he heard his grandmother’s words. A warmth spread through his heart, and he turned around to acknowledge her with a nod. The gloom that had been accumulating in his heart completely dissipated.
Upon seeing him ascend the stairs, Gu Zi turned and entered the kitchen. Her sister-in-law was chopping celery, and she asked, “Sister-in-law, what are you planning to stir-fry with the celery? Let me do it once you’re done chopping.”
She needed to keep herself busy to digest the unspeakable worries in her heart. Today’s incident had left her uncertain about whether she could truly guide Su Bing onto the right path. However, she didn’t want to doubt the child excessively. She chose to trust him first, to unconditionally believe that he would make the right choices.
Li Hua noticed her preoccupation, likely due to issues with the child. But she didn’t say anything, and Li Hua didn’t plan to ask. After all, asking might not necessarily help, and Gu Zi would speak when she was ready. Then they could see if there was anything they could do to help. “I’ve washed a piece of cured meat and chopped it up. We can stir-fry it with the celery.”
Li Hua was quick with her hands. In the midst of their conversation, she had already finished chopping the last bunch of celery. She brought out the pot of big bone soup she had been simmering and placed it on the dining table’s heat pad. After that, she didn’t return to the kitchen, leaving Gu Zi alone to cook in peace.
The Su family’s dinner was particularly lavish that night. A pot of big bone soup, two stir-fried meat dishes, a stir-fried vegetable dish, and a cold dish. Once the food was served, Lin Cheng arrived. Whenever he had free time, Lin Cheng would come over to have dinner with everyone before heading off to his night shift at the pig farm.
After dinner, the elderly Lin couple took care of cleaning the kitchen and dining area, while Li Hua went out to see Lin Cheng off. Just as Lin Cheng drove away and Li Hua was about to go back inside, a woman’s voice called out to her, “Oh, this is Gu Zi’s house, right? Wait for us.”
