Chapter 25 - Owner?

An hour later, Hua woke up to check on the man's cooling cloth. She felt his forehead and he was still a bit feverish. After changing the cooling cloth, she got ready to do the chores for the day.

She barely got any sleep but she had been used to that from the Zhangs so it didn't bother her. After brushing her teeth, Hua put on the apron and went to the kitchen.

Scanning the refrigerator and the ingredients, she decided to make chicken corn soup. It'll be light and tasty to eat while sick. It was her Brother Sheng's recipe. Feeling nostalgic, Hua smiled slightly hoping to meet him soon one day.

After getting the soup ready on the stove, she put a timer on and left it to simmer on a low flame. Meanwhile, Hua went to clean up the backyard. There were leaves and mud washed up on the tiles after yesterday's storm. Periodically, checking on the soup, Hua went through all the chores for the day in a few hours. It was almost 12.30 PM.
