Xu's mother said angrily, "Come on, I won't scold you. Hurry up and sit down to eat."
"Hehe, thank you, mom." Xu Qianjiao immediately hugged her mother and acted coquettishly.
"Come on, Jiawen, stop busying yourself and sit down to eat." Mother Xu looked at Cheng Jiawen who was still busying around and quickly asked him to come over and sit down to eat.
