Professor Dong hugged Xingxing and kissed her "little" cheek. Then he bent down to look her in the eye. Seeing Xingxing's uneasy expression because of the fight, he said to her with a soothing look, "Baby, although it was wrong for you to fight today, I think I should forgive you for the reason you did it. Next time if this happens, keep fighting, and fight hard! We should not only live a good life and study hard to make them mad, but also make them regret what they said about us, okay?"

The women around were stunned. The director of women's affairs had a very special way of educating her children. How could a mother teach her children to fight?

The battle ended in vain, and this time we finally got to see the true faces of the people in Guanjia Village.

Fifth Grandpa was utterly scrambling, shipping goods to the Shanghai Stock Exchange every night. He'd catch up on sleep at home in Xingfu Village in the morning, attend meetings in the food factory's conference room in the afternoon, and review and sign off on documents and reports in the CEO's office. He embodied the modern, overbearing CEO. Whenever Jiang Huashu entered his space and saw Fifth Grandpa's frantic efforts, he'd cover his grinning mouth and shed a solemn tear of sympathy.

Sun Mofei had no idea Fifth Grandpa would be home every day. She simply assumed he'd been in Shanghai and wouldn't be back. The commute was time-consuming, and since he was busy with important matters with his older brother, Jiang Huashu, she didn't know when he'd be back, so she'd been feeling listless for the past two days. Professor Dong was already feeling suffocated and didn't feel like cooking. There was nothing a hot pot couldn't solve, so they decided to just have some hot pot as a family.

The shabu-shabu hotpot, with a rich tomato base on one side, exudes an alluring aroma; the other side, a spicy beef fat base, exudes a pungent, spicy flavor. Sun Mofei is a perfect dining partner. Her tastes are remarkably similar to Professor Dong's, and their favorite parts of the ingredients are almost identical. After sharing three meals a day for several months, their tastes are surprisingly similar, exceeding 70%.

On the table were some cleaned wild mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, white fungus, black fungus, etc. In addition, there were also vegetables such as baby cabbage, spinach, and enoki mushrooms. These were all artificially grown vegetables brought in by modern times. They grew big and straight, making the comrades with a strong sense of history unable to resist swallowing them in one bite.

In front of Sun Mofei, there was no need to worry about arousing suspicion by showing these vegetables. This eldest daughter of the Sun family's fourth branch knew nothing about farming, and she had no idea what was in season. If you asked her which vegetables were in season and when, she would have no idea. As long as she had something to eat, she was content, even mistakenly believing that these vegetables were in season! She would not be suspicious at all.

Xingxing particularly enjoys the wide noodles in the tomato pot, so Shuishui puts a generous amount in. She stirs constantly with her chopsticks, fearing the noodles will burn to the bottom of the pot. Sichuan wide noodles are particularly easy to cook, requiring only a short wait before serving. Rinse them with water beforehand and cook them in a short while.

The four large plates of mutton rolls and beef rolls are what carnivores demand.

When Professor Dong saw that the children were enjoying their meal, his annoyance was relieved a lot.

She looked at the food on the table and thought of her modern family and friends.

I wonder how they are doing now, and whether they miss the past as much as I do.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Professor Dong opened the door and saw a woman from the village who was particularly fond of taking advantage of others waiting outside her house. "Hello, what can I do for you?"
