Chapter 80

~2 min read 310 words

Seeing Xia Zhu not taking it, he simply walked into Xia Zhu's house. This was his first time coming inside Xia Zhu's house. Xia Zhu's house was the same as many people here, with four walls and nothing, and it looked like it was destitute at a glance.

Su Xinghui walked into the kitchen at the back. Xia Zhu's mother was decocting medicine in the kitchen. This was her daily homework. Xia Zhu's father had to drink medicine every day. Su Xinghui called "Auntie" and put those meat and vegetables on the chopping board in the kitchen.

Xia Zhu's mother was only in her forties this year, but the hardship and heavy pressure of life had long bent her back a little. She looked like a person in her fifties. Seeing Su Xinghui, she hurriedly shouted "Little Su cadre".

When she saw the vegetables Su Xinghui brought, she complained, "Little Su cadre, how can we let you bring vegetables to our house? This is really too rude!"

Su Xinghui smiled and said, "Auntie, it's nothing. I'm also having a meal at your house at noon today. How about this, I'll cook at noon today, and you and Uncle can also taste my craftsmanship."

Xia Zhu's mother didn't know what to say anymore. She could only nod and said, "Alright, thank you, Little Su cadre!"

Su Xinghui went out of the room and saw that Xia Zhu's eyes were already red, and tears were swirling in her eyes. He said gently, "Xia Zhu, don't cry, aren't you calling me Brother Xinghui? Since I am your brother, what does it count for me to bring some vegetables? You won't be pretty if you cry again!"

Xia Zhu wiped the tears from her eyes with the back of her hand. She looked up and said seriously to Su Xinghui, "Brother Xinghui, thank you!"
