"Sister Jun, please let me do it. You are a guest..."
Shen Jun smiled and turned around, saying, "Since Chu Yu has recognized me as her godmother, I haven't treated myself as a guest. Sister, don't be shy with me. Just wait patiently and let me show off my skills to my daughter and let her taste my cooking."
Shen Jun insisted on doing it, so Shu Hui had no choice but to stand aside and chop and prepare the vegetables, helping her out.
In less than an hour, Shen Jun had prepared braised pig's trotters, braised pork belly, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, pickled cabbage and tofu, spring rolls, and chicken soup. The five dishes and one soup were served, which shocked Chu Xiang and Chu Chu.
"Mom, did you make all of this?" Chu Xiang asked in surprise.
"It doesn't look like my mom's work; it must have been Aunt Shen Jun who did it," Chu Chu guessed.
Shu Hui is also a good cook, but she is slow. When guests come to her house, she starts preparing the dishes early in the morning. Even so, it is difficult to have a delicious meal when it is time to eat. Shen Jun is extremely fast. She can cook a whole table of dishes by herself without the help of the other girls.
Everyone found it strange.
Shen Jun smiled, wiped her hands on her apron, and handed Chu Yu chopsticks.
These are all Shen Jun's specialty dishes. Aren't a mother's specialty dishes the dishes that her children love to eat the most?
These are all dishes that Chu Yu likes to eat.
Everyone sat down around the table. Chu Yu picked up a piece of food with her chopsticks and was so moved by the familiar taste that she almost cried. Shen Jun knew her taste best. She had always wanted to eat her mother's cooking, and she never expected to actually get to eat it.
"Godmother, your cooking is so delicious! I'm going to be so lucky to eat here from now on," Chu Yu said with a smile.
Seeing that her mouth was bulging out like a satisfied little hamster, Shen Jun couldn't help but feel her eyes well up with tears.
When people are too happy, they become afraid of losing it. Even now, Shen Jun still can't believe that Chu Yu has also come to this era, and the two have become mother and daughter again.
"If you like it, your godmother will cook it for you every day."
Shen Jun is a great cook, and Chu Xiang and Chu Chu enjoy her cooking. Moreover, Chu Yu is close to Shen Jun, and influenced by their older sister, they also find Shen Jun particularly kind.
Dai Donglin was eating the food in his bowl, and he was not unaware of their interaction.
From any perspective, Chu Yu's feelings for Shen Jun were somewhat inexplicable.
Even if ordinary people survive a near-death experience together, they wouldn't be this close, but Chu Yu and Shen Jun seemed to have known each other for many years, with no sense of distance between them.
The eager look in Chu Yu's eyes when she asked him to save Shen Jun didn't seem fake. If Shen Jun weren't a middle-aged woman, Dai Donglin would definitely be jealous, feeling that his girlfriend treated Shen Jun better than him.
There have always been too many mysteries surrounding Chu Yu waiting to be solved, but Dai Donglin has always selectively ignored them. He stopped himself from thinking about these things in detail. No matter where Chu Yu is from or what her past is like, as long as she is who she is, that is enough for him.
But today's events cannot be ignored by him any longer.
Chu Yu initially said Shen Jun was his mother, but later changed his story to say she was his godmother. And what a person says in a moment of crisis is unlikely to be a lie.
In other words, Chu Yu had already revealed the truth to him.
Shen Jun is her biological mother. As for why Chu Yu has two mothers, considering her unusual behavior and extraordinary insight, Dai Donglin has his own guess.
If his guess is true, then the story that happened to Chu Yu is far more shocking than he imagined.
But can a person really have two lifetimes?
Even with his extensive knowledge, Dai Donglin couldn't accept such an absurd speculation. He couldn't possibly ask Chu Yu, so he could only silently process the news in his mind.
Dai Donglin is a hero in the family; his two mothers take turns serving him food.
Chu Yu found it amusing and kicked his calf on the table. Dai Donglin, hidden in the shadows, held her hand and stroked it repeatedly.
Chu Yu felt a little embarrassed. This guy was really bold, doing this in front of so many people. It really felt like he was doing something wrong.
She glared at Dai Donglin, annoyed.
The short man hasn't been caught yet, so Shen Jun can't go back to her residence. Chu Yu wanted to take her to stay in a courtyard house near Houhai, but Shu Hui rejected the idea.
“Your place hasn’t been cleaned in a long time, it’s missing this and that, it’s not convenient to live there.”
"But it's really not safe for my godmother to go back."
“You definitely can’t go back. You might as well stay here with me. There are two guest rooms in the house. If you stay here, I can take care of anything you need.”
Shen Jun hesitated for a moment. Of course, she wanted to stay and take care of her daughter. After hearing Chu Yu say that Chu Yu had been alone ever since she died in her previous life, Shen Jun's heartache was palpable.
After coming into this world, Shen Jun waited for her daughter for another eight years. In both her previous and current lives, the separation over so many years made both mother and daughter feel particularly sad. Although Chu Yu had Shu Hui to love her in this life, Shen Jun still wanted to make it up to her daughter and wanted to get closer to her.
She is Chu Yu's mother, but she has no relation to Shu Hui or the Chu family girls.
It was perfectly reasonable for Shen Jun to stay at Chu Yu's place, as it's always inconvenient to stay at someone else's house, but Shu Hui was really hospitable.
Shu Hui felt a sense of familiarity when she saw her. Besides, people are very hospitable these days. It was just a matter of adding a pair of chopsticks and an extra quilt for Shen Jun to stay at home. It was really nothing.
"Why are you being so polite with me? I still have several outfits that Chu Yu bought for me that I haven't worn yet, including both outerwear and underwear. We're about the same size, so you'll definitely be able to wear my clothes. Since you're staying here, you'll have plenty of clean clothes to change into. Isn't that more convenient than living in Houhai?"
Shen Jun couldn't refuse, so she stayed at Shu Hui's place. Chu Yu was happy to accept, but since Shen Jun was there today, she couldn't keep Dai Donglin company.
She saw Dai Donglin off, and the two sat in the car. Chu Yu gave her boyfriend a big hug.
"You smell so good."
