Chapter 461: Family Reunion

After asking about Pei Ke's preferences, Shen Mingzhu made a list of ingredients and had Sister Yu go shopping; she tied on her apron, soaked the rice, and took out cured meats, preparing to make cured-flavor rice.

In the living room, Guoguo was playing happily.

Although it was her first time meeting Pei Ke, she didn't act shy at all. One moment she was asking Pei Ke to admire the braids she had made for her doll, the next she was showing off the lantern she had crafted.

Upon learning that Pei Ke didn't know how to make a lantern, she immediately dragged him to the second floor to teach him.

"Mom?"

Pei Ziheng stood at the kitchen doorway and was very surprised to see the person cooking was Shen Mingzhu.

Shen Mingzhu smiled at her son, "Your great-uncle is back, playing upstairs with Guoguo. You should go too, but remember to call others."

Hearing that Pei Ke was back, Pei Ziheng was quite surprised and promptly went to the second floor.
