While everyone was eating, Lu Mingming quietly picked up the bowl of potato and pork rib stew that she had saved for Aunt Shi next to the iron pot and walked in a certain direction.
Aunt Shi is still in a weak state these days and can't come to watch the live broadcast. In addition, Aunt Shi has never been in contact with the outside world's quantum computer, so she probably doesn't even know what Lu Mingming is going to do tonight.
With a mix of trepidation and excitement, Lu Mingming gently knocked on the door and called out, "Aunt Shi, I've brought you your food."
"Oh, it's Naruto! Come in."
Aunt Shi's voice sounded strong and healthy, much better than a few days ago when she was so weak that she couldn't even speak.

Having obtained permission, Lu Mingming pushed open the wooden door—
Aunt Shi was sitting on the edge of the bed, using a method she had recently learned to knit red yarn with two long wooden sticks to pass the time.
Lu Mingming placed the bowl on the table and asked curiously, "Aunt Shi, what are you doing? Is it too cold lately? I can buy you some warmer clothes."
Aunt Shi stopped what she was doing, put the yarn on the bedside table, and briskly sat down at the dining table.
She took a sniff of the potato and pork rib stew in the bowl, her expression brightening, a hint of amazement flashing in her eyes. She quickly prepared to dig in, explaining to Lu Mingming as she did so:
"This is for you. Looking at your small frame, I imagine you'll be quite busy in the future. Spring is almost here, so I can knit you a thin scarf and a light cardigan to keep you warm."
Lu Mingming was stunned, not expecting it to be a gift from the other party. In an instant, a thousand thoughts flashed through her mind.
In the tranquil atmosphere, Lu Mingming's eyes reddened slightly, and gradually glistening tears welled up.
She pursed her lips tightly. Although spring hadn't arrived yet, the warm spring breeze gently brushed against her heart, bringing a surge of warmth.
Lu Mingming felt a lump in her throat as she looked at Aunt Shi's dry, cracked hands, remaining silent.

Aunt Shi finished her meal in a quiet setting. Perhaps because she had a deep impression of Lu Mingming's cooking in Sin City, she didn't show much excitement on her face, which made Lu Mingming wonder if her cooking was not good enough.
"How is it?"
Aunt Shi wiped the grease from the corner of her lips and said without any surprise, "Because it's you, I feel that no matter how big the surprise is, it's all within my expectations. Mingming, you are a very remarkable person."
Lu Mingming blushed slightly upon receiving the praise.
She took out the necklace Aunt Shi had given her and was about to speak when Aunt Shi, mistaking her for Lu Mingming trying to back out again, quickly hardened her expression: "What are you doing? Trying to pull that trick on me again?"
Lu Mingming hurriedly interrupted, "I wanted to ask if you would be my godmother? I have many friends and many cubs in this world, but I have no blood parents."
Lu Mingming recounted the story earnestly.
Having experienced the pain of losing her daughter, Aunt Shi couldn't control her emotions. Tears streamed down her face, leaving a zigzag line on her skin.
The tears that flowed to my lips didn't taste salty, but rather sweet.
Aunt Shi suddenly laughed, wiped away her tears with her fingers, and said with a smile, "You little girl, do you want Aunt Shi to pay for your dowry later?"

Lu Mingming subconsciously waved her hand to refute, but Aunt Shi continued, "Since you treat me as your godmother, I will naturally treat you as my own daughter!"
If anything happens to you in the future, your godmother will be there for you immediately. You won't receive any less care from me.
Aunt Shi had a domineering demeanor and spoke in a manner like a queen, but Lu Mingming could feel the care she conveyed.
They smiled at each other, feeling each other's love through their glistening tears.
After Aunt Shi finished eating, Lu Mingming cleaned up the dishes and went to the open space to check on everyone's situation.
They had clearly just eaten, yet they wandered around like starving ghosts, their empty bowls devoid of any grease, as if they hadn't eaten at all.
That pot was cleaner than a person's face; I don't know how many times it had been scraped with a spoon.
When everyone saw Lu Mingming arrive, it was as if they had seen their savior.
The little cub rushed straight to Lu Mingming's leg and hugged her tightly, its round eyes wide open, pouting cutely: "Sister, do you have any more potato and pork rib stew? I ate a bowl, but I still feel like it's not enough."
Upon hearing this, the bald man glared at the little boy with hatred: "If one bowl isn't enough for you, who's going to compensate me? The rewards that were supposed to be there were all snatched up by you wolves and tigers! You're utterly wicked space pirates!"

The bald man felt resentment whenever the matter was brought up.
His reward?! His stewed pork ribs!!
Lu Mingming covered her lips and chuckled, "What's so difficult about that? If you want to eat it, we can make it tomorrow. Everyone just needs to prepare the ingredients."
Lu Mingming made a promise, which drew cheers from the crowd. Anyone who didn't know the situation would think that the new chieftain of Blue Star had already been chosen.
Everyone expressed the following:
"I'm going to dig potatoes tomorrow!! Can I have an extra bowl?"
"Then I'll go get those seasonings tomorrow, and nobody can take them from me!"
"I'll take care of the firewood tomorrow; I have plenty at home!"
Everyone was scrambling to get to the front row so that they could see the bald man getting a bowl of stew as a reward for tomorrow.
