"Just frying some meatballs to give the fish a quick fry," Lian Shouxin said to Lian Xiuxiu, "Xiuxiu, what's up?"
"Erlang's wife is making braised pork, but we've run out of soy sauce at home. Mother asked me to come up here and see if you could lend us a bowl of it," Lian Xiuxiu said, her eyes darting around above and below the stove.
Lian Shouxin went over, took the bowl from Lian Xiuxiu, and poured the soy sauce for her.
"So Erlang's wife is cooking today!" Lady Zhang chatted with Lian Xiuxiu, "Her cooking is really particular."
Lian Xiuxiu stepped into the house, blatantly looking around.
"The dishes you're preparing today are really not that great," Lian Xiuxiu said, then muttered under her breath, "No wonder you don't want to spend New Year's with us."
