Seeing Chi Yue return, Yu Feng asked excitedly, "You're back, Yue, did you get engaged?"
Chi Yue hummed in agreement, nodding her head and vaguely responding.
"That's great, that's great," Yu Feng said as she set the bowls. "Our family, ah, is going to taste sweet after the bitterness."
"Mom, what does 'tasting sweet after the bitterness' mean?" Chi Yan asked, looking up with her hand already reaching for the meat on the table.
Yu Feng knocked her hand away and handed her chopsticks, smiling warmly, "It means that we don't have to suffer anymore. We'll eat meat at every meal."
"Yay, yay," Chi Yan also rejoiced.
Before the sun had set, the family gathered around the table, ready to have dinner.
Er Huang in the yard suddenly started barking, "Woof, woof" incessantly, fiercely scratching at the front gate.
Chi Yue turned her head, hearing someone shouting, "Chi Yue, are you home?"
"..."
Qiao Dongyang?
