Even after he had earned money for them, once he refused to marry Pei Qin, Pei Qian's attitude toward him changed instantaneously. It was as if they owed him a great favor just for eating a meal at their home. She didn't want to let him eat. As for helping them earn money, that was because their eldest sister had previously earned even more for him, and their family had only gotten a tiny bit of it!
Pei Qin and Pei Yuan were cooking when Shen Songming motioned for Pei Qian to come over, wanting to ask her something.
Pei Qian snorted and pretended not to hear, heading to the kitchen to help out instead.
With three people working together, the meal was prepared quickly: bamboo tube rice, stir-fried sweet potato leaves with meat, spicy braised tofu skin, and a simple stir-fried choy sum.
Shen Songming washed his hands and sat down at the dining table without any hesitation, picking up a bowl and a pair of chopsticks to start eating.
