Chapter 28: Visiting the Jiang Family

Jiang Xiaomei might have been obtuse at times, but occasionally she was particularly sensitive, as she was now. She chatted on about various fun and interesting things without mentioning a word about Lin Xiaoguai's near miscarriage.

When lunchtime came around, Shen Chi also returned and when he heard that Lin Xiaoguai wanted to visit Jiang Xiaomei's house, he wished to accompany her. However, Lin Xiaoguai stopped him and simply gave him the address of Jiang Xiaomei's house, asking him to come pick her up before dinner.

"Xiao Guai, I had no idea you could cook so deliciously, even better than my dad," Jiang Xiaomei said, arm in arm with Lin Xiaoguai as they got off the passenger bus.

Jiang Xiaomei's dad had been a head chef at a restaurant in the county town in his youth until a special period forced him to retreat to the countryside to lay low. Naturally, his culinary skills were not lacking, and locals would always want him to cook for their weddings and funerals.
