Zhuang Xiao’ai was angry and sad, so she yelled at Xia Xibei, who came in. Her small stature made her look more like a pissed off kitten, showing her teeth but with not much aggression.
Zhuang Xiao’ai thought the bad guys were the ones who came in, but when she saw who it was, she froze.
“Who are you?”
Xia Xibei had changed her appearance and looked much more ordinary, so Zhuang Xiao’ai couldn’t recognize her.
“I… I heard that there is good food here, so I came over…”!!
Xia Xibei’s mind worked quickly and she immediately came up with a good excuse.
Before, Zhuang Xiao’ai had said that she had good cooking skills, and with the pots and pans outside, this was likely a small restaurant selling food.
This reason made Zhuang Xiao’ai frown.
“How do you know?”
“I heard about it from others,” Xia Xibei explained casually.
“Oh.” She didn’t think too much about it, and she could only nod. “But you’re in the wrong place today, we’re a little busy and we’re not open.”
She wiped her tears away, her demeanor a bit wilted.
“Did something happen?” Xia Xibei couldn’t help but ask.
“It’s nothing, just a little trouble. You’d better go back now and come later… Forget it, there is no later.” Zhuang Xiao’ai showed a bitter smile, “If it’s meant to be in the future, I will make you a meal.”
These words made Xia Xibei raise her eyebrows. It seemed the situation was much more troublesome than she had expected.
While they were talking, an old lady came out from the inside.
The old lady was probably in her sixties, with white hair and wrinkles on her face, but her eyes were kind.
Her hands and feet were obviously a bit unsteady, but when she saw Xia Xibei, she still showed a gentle smile.
“Hi! What are you doing here?”
“Grandma, I’m here to eat.”
Xia Xibei’s words made the old grandmother’s smile become brighter, like that of a blooming flower.
However, when she thought of what happened at home, her smile froze again.
“Sorry, we can’t make food now.”
“It’s okay, I came at a bad time!” Xia Xibei hurriedly laughed.
“Grandma! Go sit down!” Zhuang Xiao’ai helped Grandma to sit down while admonishing her, “Didn’t I tell you to rest inside? Why did you come out again?”
“It’s you who should rest.” Grandma patted Zhuang Xiao’ai’s hand, “You’ve been tired for days! It’s time to take a break!”
She looked at the chaos outside, her eyes a bit sad.
“As for these things outside, we don’t need them. Grandma has lived for many years. It’s enough, so don’t wear yourself out.”
These words made Zhuang Xiao’ai’s eyes turn red.
“Grandma, what are you talking about?! You haven’t lived long enough! You’ll be with me for many more decades!”
Grandma laughed, patting her arm, and didn’t argue with her anymore.
She knew that this child was stubborn and would not listen so easily.
“Sorry to interrupt, but what’s wrong with Grandma’s health?”
Xia Xibei spoke carefully.
Grandma smiled, “Nothing’s wrong, just some little problems.”
Zhuang Xiao’ai didn’t nod, but she didn’t deny it either.
Seeing that they did not want to talk to her, a stranger, Xia Xibei did not continue to ask.
“Grandma, you sit down first. I’ll go pack up the things outside.”
Zhuang Xiao’ai walked out and started to clean up the things that were knocked over on the floor, with Xia Xibei following suit.
There was a spilled pot on the table, and when she turned it over, there was some marinated meat underneath, still a little warm.
Xia Xibei reached down and picked up a piece, putting it in her mouth.
After a few chews, her eyes lit up.
Delicious!
