Chapter 992 Huo Xingzhou understands her best
Qiao Xi did not answer his question, but said: "After Jiaojiao's wedding is over, I want to go back to Moon Village to see Master Cheng. Do you want to go?"
"I'll go. I also want to pay tribute to Grandma Qiao."
"Well, I'll call you then."
Xu Yunye nodded.
The two of them talked for a while, and then a voice came from downstairs calling them to eat.
"Let's go, I'll go try what my mother has made. She's been busy for a long time, if it's really unpalatable you don't have to give her face, don't let my little nephew and niece down."
Qiao Xi smiled and went downstairs with him.
The big round table was already full of people, and the seat next to Huo Xingzhou was reserved for her.
The dishes that were less attractive in presentation were placed in front of her.
It seems that this is Liu Huimin's craft.
"Xixi, don't be polite, just eat whatever you want." The big round table can rotate, so it can accommodate Qiao Xi.
"Eat more."
"Cousin, you should try your cooking skills."
Qiao Xi picked up a piece of lotus root with chopsticks. It was refreshing and delicious.
It's just a little sour.
If she remembered correctly, this was a famous dish called Moonlight over the Lotus Pond. She just didn't expect the cooking method to be different, but it tasted just right to her.
"tasty."
Liu Huimin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I heard that you didn't like to eat after you got pregnant, so I thought about my taste at the time. I added some rice vinegar to the lotus root slices, so it tastes a bit sour and is more appetizing. If you like it, try something else, but don't force yourself."
"Well, thank you for your trouble."
Qiao Xi tasted them one by one and found that Liu Huimin's cooking skills were quite good.
It doesn't look like the quality of a novice's dish. It looks like she must have spent a lot of time in the kitchen today.
"They are all delicious, you guys should eat them too."
"Okay, let's eat."
"Finally, the family is reunited."
"I've been looking forward to this day for a long time."
They were eating and talking at the same time.
The commotion lasted until after ten o'clock in the evening.
On the way back, the Liu family took a lot of supplements and luxury goods and put them in the trunk, insisting that Qiao Xi take them back, saying that they were for health. Even if she didn't need them, she could give them to friends. She also prepared gifts for other people in the Huo family.
Liu Huimin picked out a set of jewelry specifically for Du Ya, as she wanted to curry favor with her.
As I get closer to Du Ya, I will have more opportunities to see Qiao Xi.
Hearing that Du Ya and Qiao Xi were as close as mother and daughter, Liu Huimin was really envious and hoped that she and Qiao Xi would be together one day.
Qiao Xi sat in the car and waved goodbye.
Huo Xingzhou handed her a thermos cup and asked, "Would you like a drink?"
"What's in it?"
"Drink the red date and hawthorn water to help digestion. It's already past ten o'clock, you will feel uncomfortable if you go back. I ate a lot tonight, so you can sleep better after digesting it."
I have never seen this thermos before. It doesn't look like something from the Huo family.
“Who prepared it?”
Qiao Xi took a sip gently.
The red dates are sweet and the hawthorns are sour, which is just right. It seems to have been boiled for a long time, but there is no residue at all, which means the person who made it was very considerate and had filtered out the residue.
"It tastes good, would you like to try it?"
"This is for you, drink it first. If you like it, go home and ask Aunt Qian to make some fruit tea. You usually just drink plain water, which doesn't taste good. I've always heard that pregnant women always want to eat this or that, so why don't you do that?"
"Maybe Aunt Qian took such good care of me that she had already prepared something for me before I even had time to eat."
"Then I will give her processing fees later."
Qiao Xi drank two more sips of red date and hawthorn water, and suddenly thought, "This is me..."
Huo Xingzhou nodded.
It turns out that it was really prepared by Liu Huimin.
Not only did she go to the kitchen to cook so many dishes, she also took the time to make her a dessert.
Realizing that she might eat late tonight, I made this digestion aid for her.
Qiao Xi felt an indescribable feeling in her heart. "If I had grown up with her, I would have been spoiled and arrogant. It is actually lucky for a daughter to have such a mother."
No matter what she did wrong, she was partial.
In the details of life, he is also very careful.
Without thinking too much, Qiao Xi also knew how much effort she had put into Xu Xingluo. The care and companionship she gave him day and night were all real.
But she has never enjoyed maternal love in her life.
"Hubby, I'm a little jealous of Xu Xingluo."
Because she once got something she didn't have, something she had always dreamed of.
The better Liu Huimin was, the more unbalanced she felt.
Huo Xingzhou put the thermos aside and said, "Why do you envy her? You own the whole world now, and she is dead. Liu Huimin treats her well only because she thinks Xu Xingluo was once her biological daughter. It's not because her name is Xu Xingluo. She mistook Xu Xingluo for you. She stole something that originally belonged to you, so you don't have to be jealous."
Think about it this way.
Qiao Xi felt much better.
"You always find a way to make me happy."
Huo Xingzhou touched her head and said, "Let's not think about other people. Nothing can affect our happiness."
"Um!"
Qiao Xi nodded heavily.
"Are you sleepy?"
"No, I couldn't sleep even after eating so much."
Huo Xingzhou looked at Lao Chen in the front row and said, "Lao Chen, go to Binjiang Avenue."
"Okay, Master."
When Lao Chen heard this, he quickly turned around.
He knew what was on Binjiang Avenue.
Qiao Xi was very curious, "Going to Binjiang Avenue so late?"
If she remembered correctly, it was actually not far from Tianyuan Building and was located in the bustling city center.
"I'll take you to see it."
The car drove along the way. There were not many cars on the road at this point.
There is a piece of land on Binjiang Avenue that is designed like a park, with a high degree of greenery. There are street lights everywhere, and there is a sense of beauty under the shade.
Qiao Xi followed Huo Xingzhou out of the car, and the wind outside blew away the warmth inside the car.
She and Huo Xingzhou walked up the stairs and went inside.
It is a semi-glass building.
The decoration and layout inside can be seen clearly, and even the bonsai are planted with Chinese medicinal herbs.
"Qiao's... Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic?"
Qiao Xi thought of the ancient plaque at the top.
"This is Master Cheng's inscription. He said that you have become a master. You can be independent in the future and can establish a school to teach disciples. Qiao Xi, this will be your battlefield from now on. Do you like it?"
Qiao Xi's eyes were filled with tears. She looked at the large, bright and spacious Chinese medicine clinic in front of her and could not help but nodded.
"Is this the surprise gift you said you would give me? I love it, I love it so much."
The former Chinese medicine clinic was burned down, and she thought it would take a very long time to rebuild it.
At least she will have to wait until she gives birth to the child and settles everything before she can pick up her dream again.
"Starting tomorrow, you can plan whatever you want here!"
Qiao Xi stretched out her hands and hugged his waist, buried her head in his chest and said, "Thank you."
Thank you for always being the one who understands me the most.
