Uncertain whether Wang Xiuzhu's remark was mocking her for being a rural woman or dissatisfied with her serving plain boiled water, Shen Mingzhu looked at her without saying a word.
Wang Huizhen reproached Wang Xiuzhu with a pat, "What are you saying!"
Wang Xiuzhu gave Shen Mingzhu a slight smile, "I was just joking, you don't mind, do you?"
Shen Mingzhu wasn't really angry, but still felt a bit uncomfortable on the inside. She deliberately ignored Wang Xiuzhu and turned to Wang Huizhen to explain why she couldn't find any tea leaves.
Wang Huizhen smiled and said it was okay, mentioning she usually didn't like drinking tea, and the matter was dropped just like that.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Wang Huizhen's gaze landed on Pei Ziheng, who was sitting on the balcony in a daze, and couldn't help but feel emotional, "In the blink of an eye, Ziheng has grown up so much. I hardly dared to recognize him when I saw him; last time I saw him, he was only this tall."
