Shalu said: "Mom, she is Xia Yuanqiu, a friend I met when I was on a mission. She came to Donghai City for the first time. She has no relatives and no identity card. She can't even stay in an inn. She comes from a girl's family and always sleeps on the streets. That's not good, I thought we still had a vacant room at home, so I brought her back, mother, you won't be angry, right?"
When the woman heard what Shalu said, she hurriedly laughed and said: "You silly child, how could my mother be angry? She is a girl. If she sleeps on the street, something might happen. Since they are friends, of course they should be brought home. Come and take care of me. Besides, my mother is alone at home all day and is bored. There is someone here to talk to my mother, and she can’t even be happy."
With his mother's words, Shalu finally felt relieved. This was the first time he brought a friend to his home. He didn't know how his mother would react, and he was still worried. Fortunately, his mother did not object.
The woman reached out and took Xia Yuanqiu's hand, and said with a smile: "From now on, you will treat this place as your own home. Don't be polite to your aunt, you know?"
Xia Yuanqiu nodded, with a smile on her face and a warm heart. She didn't expect that she would meet such a good person when she just arrived in this unfamiliar place.
"thank you all!"
When the woman saw her smiling, she also laughed: "You look so beautiful when you smile. You should smile more often. If you are in a good mood, you will be more energetic."
Xia Yuanqiu hummed heavily, saw the cabbage on the ground, and said hurriedly: "I can also cook, let me help you."
When the woman heard this, her eyebrows lit up and she said with a smile: "You can also cook? Aren't you a student at the college?"
Xia Yuanqiu shook his head: "I'm not a student of the academy, but if I were a student of the academy, wouldn't it be strange to know how to cook?"
The woman said: "Of course it's strange. If a girl's family is selected to be admitted to the academy, she will be like a star holding the moon. Will she still learn such a low-level job as cooking?"
Xia Yuanqiu shook his head: "I don't think cooking is a low-level job. People eat three meals. Food is the foundation of the world. If there is no food to eat, wouldn't we starve to death? I think cooking is the highest job and should not be People despise.”
The woman hurriedly praised: "You're right, I think so too, but it's a pity that we are the only ones who think so. Students who enter the college don't want to learn to cook."
Shalu looked at the green vegetables on the ground and thought of Xia Yuanqiu's first visit to the house. He had to eat something good for this first meal, but he took out a cloth bag from his arms and handed it to his mother: "Mom, This is the reward for this mission, you can exchange it for some meat."
The woman looked at the sky outside, shook her head and said, "At this hour, we can't exchange for meat anymore. I'll go there early tomorrow."
Xia Yuanqiu said hurriedly: "It's not easy to eat meat. Just wait, I will make you a delicious roast duck later."
The woman shook her head and said: "We don't have ducks at home. People like us can't eat this kind of thing. Don't even think about it."
What the hell? Who else can eat a duck? Don’t even think about it
Shalu was a little embarrassed and said, "Miss Xia, to be honest, our family is very poor and cannot afford ducks."
Xia Yuanqiu was puzzled: "Are ducks expensive? How much does one cost?"
"Money? What is money?" Shalu asked, confused.
What is money? Her ears aren't broken, right? Doesn't Donghai Kingdom need to pay for purchases
"Don't you have to pay for things?" Xia Yuanqiu asked.
Only then did Shalu realize and said with a smile: "You are talking about Jing!"
