The next afternoon, Wang Xiaoxue brought Yue Jiuyue another bowl of milk tea, this time with just the right amount of sweetness.
Lin Chaobei silently sacrificed so much for this bowl of milk tea with just the right amount of sweetness.
He felt that he might never like sweets again for the rest of his life, having been ruined by all the milk tea he drank today.
Although the sweetness gradually decreased, he could never forget how cloyingly sweet the first bowl was. No wonder his mother coughed for a long time yesterday. You know, the first bowl of milk tea he drank was already one-third less sweet than yesterday. You can imagine how uncomfortable his mother must have felt after drinking that sip yesterday.
It also made him realize how much his wife loved sweets.
After all, his wife thought the sweetness of yesterday's milk tea was just right.
"Mom, how did you like today's milk tea?"
Wang Xiaoxue asked cautiously, her expression one of eager anticipation for praise.
"Mmm, today's milk tea is quite delicious, and the sweetness is just right. Thank you for your hard work, Xiaoxue."
Being able to drink delicious milk tea naturally put Yue Jiuyue in a good mood, after all, good food can make people happy.
Hearing Yue Jiuyue's answer, Wang Xiaoxue breathed a sigh of relief. It was the first time she had cooked something delicious for her mother-in-law—no, something sweet—and it was so cloying that her mother-in-law coughed. She was so embarrassed. She just wanted to wipe away this stain as quickly as possible, so she didn't go to the shop in town all day. She was busy all day, just so that her mother-in-law would forget about the milk tea she had brought yesterday and only have a good impression of today.
"I'm glad Mom likes it! If you want to drink it in the future, just tell me. Now I know what Mom likes, so I can make it for her anytime!"
Finally, it's all perfect!
Wang Xiaoxue was satisfied and didn't bother Yue Jiuyue too much. She had been married into the family for two or three months now and knew that her mother-in-law was a person who liked peace and quiet. The reason she came over for two consecutive days was because she wanted to bring her mother-in-law a bowl of delicious milk tea. Now that she had delivered it, she had achieved her goal and should go about her business.
She's very busy these days. Not only has she taken over the needlework shop, but she's also taken over the bookstore that doesn't make much money. She even asked Lin Chaonan for another shop. She hasn't decided what kind of business to start yet, but she has an idea. Her family sells pork, and they can't sell all the pork they have every day. They have leftover scraps that they can't sell. Why not open a small restaurant that sells stewed pork with cabbage?
She was just thinking about it; whether it would work out would be another year. The Lunar New Year was approaching, and the shop would soon be closing down, so it wasn't a good time to open.
Unbeknownst to her, Yue Jiuyue also wanted to do something, and was currently in the thinking stage, but just couldn't come up with anything.
Fortunately, Yue Jiuyue is not one to make things difficult for herself. If she can't think of something, she simply stops thinking about it. Perhaps one day, an idea will naturally come to her, saving her from racking her brains and wasting her brain cells.
Before we knew it, it was Lunar New Year's Eve.
This year's Lunar New Year's Eve was similar to previous years, the only difference being that the eldest son's wife, Liu, was replaced by the fourth son's wife, Wang. When everyone sat together at the table, looking at the people sitting around it, it was hard not to feel a little sentimental.
Fortunately, Dazhuang is young and doesn't understand anything.
Fortunately, Xiaoman'er was not saddened by Liu's absence. Perhaps it was because she was not lacking in love and had a good living environment. She remained as innocent and naive as ever.
