After dinner, everyone sat around sipping tea for a while until Cui Lianying said her goodbyes.
Since everyone had been drinking that evening, it wasn't appropriate to drive, so Shen Mingzhu called a taxi.
Once the taxi arrived, Shen Mingzhu personally escorted Cui Lianying out.
"Aunt Cui, you should come over for dinner more often when you have the time."
"Eh, Mingzhu, I've troubled you today, thank you for cooking such a big meal."
"It's no trouble; we're just family having a simple meal together."
After exchanging pleasantries, Pei Ke also got into the taxi, insisting on taking Cui Lianying home himself.
As the taxi drove away, Pei Wenping whispered to Shen Mingzhu with a snicker, "I really didn't see it coming; my little uncle is quite the doting husband. It just confirms the old saying, this old house is on fire and beyond saving."
Shen Mingzhu glanced back teasingly, "Are you envious? Should I find you someone who knows how to cherish you too?"
