"Okay, I understand."
Liu Jiu was a little embarrassed, as she hadn't had her mother wash her clothes in a long time.
Bonnie then spoke with Sister Xiang again, asking if she had any dishes suitable for nourishing Liu Jiu.
“I know, Liu Jiu has grown up. I’ll make her some soup tonight, especially for women during their periods.”
"Alright, thank you for your help, Sister Xiang."
Bonnie sincerely thanked her, saying that her son Liu Jiu gets a lot of exercise and shouldn't neglect his health.
