Lin Qixia looked up at the sky and said, "Let's wait until tomorrow. It's very late now. We can continue tomorrow."
"Okay," Yunxia agreed.
He Zhilan took her arm and said, "Let's have dinner at my house tonight. You two are so tired, there's no need for you to go back and cook."
"Oh, I can't accept that." Yunxia instinctively wanted to refuse He Zhilan's words, after all, they were the ones who helped her today.
She should have invited them to her home for dinner, but what she had at home... was really not presentable.
"Don't be shy, come on, Brother Xiao offered to cook for us today," He Zhilan urged her again.
Yunxia was quite surprised by her words.
She simply looked at He Zhilan and asked, "Lin Xiao is cooking? I'm quite curious about that."
He Zhilan chuckled: "In that case, you may all come."
"Come to my house, Aunt Yunxia," Lin Qixia said, taking the initiative to suggest.
Seeing that the two women were so insistent, Yunxia had no choice but to agree, "Then, I won't stand on ceremony."
"That's great, Mom!" Tian Ye'er was also very happy to see that she had agreed. "We're going to have dinner at Sister Xia'er's house today!"
She couldn't forget the chicken Lin Qixia made after eating it last time.
Even though they still had a rabbit at home, they didn't cook it well; it was barely edible.
Afterwards, the group pushed the cart back.
When I got home, I could already smell the aroma of food.
"Is Big Brother really cooking?" Lin Qixia was initially a little skeptical of He Zhilan's words, but now, smelling the aroma coming from the yard, she was quite surprised.
He Zhilan said, "Don't you remember? Your older brother used to be an excellent cook, but after that accident..."
This was the first time he had cooked since that incident.
After she told Lin Xiao about Yunxia's situation at noon, Lin Xiao took the initiative to suggest that she invite Yunxia to his home for dinner, and he would cook for her himself.
Yunxia held He Zhilan's hand: "Let's not talk about it anymore. I'm happy for Lin Xiao now that he's recovered."
"Let's go." He Zhilan looked up at her and smiled.
Afterwards, the group entered the courtyard. Lin Xiao, having probably heard the commotion, pushed his wheelchair out of the kitchen.
Yunxia and he met eyes, and both of them paused for a moment.
"You've arrived." In the end, Lin Xiao spoke first, greeting them.
Yunxia lowered her eyes and responded with a soft "Mm".
The atmosphere became a little awkward for a moment. Lin Qixia cleared her throat and said, "Brother, you really cooked? Then I'm really looking forward to today's meal!"
Lin Xiao twitched the corner of his lips: "It's nothing, it's mainly the wild boar meat you brought back before, as well as sweet potatoes and braised rice."
"I see." Lin Qixia turned to Yunxia and said, "Let's go, Aunt Yunxia, let's go wash up first, and then come back for dinner later."
"Okay," Yunxia replied.
Lin Qixia then invited He Zhilan and Tian Ye'er to join her in cleaning up.
It was a tiring and sunny day; I sweated a lot and looked quite disheveled.
Lin Qixia washed herself with well water. The cool well water washed away the stickiness on her skin, and she instantly felt refreshed and comfortable.
"Phew, that's much easier now," she couldn't help but exclaim.
He Zhilan said, "Xia'er must be exhausted today. You need to eat something good and rest well later."
"It was my oversight; I shouldn't have made you do so much work today," Yunxia said apologetically, seeing Lin Qixia's face flushed and her disheveled appearance.
Some of the heavy work should be done by her; Qi Xia is still a young girl after all.
However, she didn't expect that Lin Qixia would go to such lengths to help her after saying she would, to the point that she was exhausted.
Lin Qixia chuckled nonchalantly, "It's not that exaggerated. It's just that work is bound to be a bit tiring."
"Dinner is ready, come and eat."
At that moment, Lin Xiao shouted from not far away.
"Coming!" He Zhilan called out and went over to help Lin Xiao bring his meal.
Lin Qixia went over to help, but when she saw Yunxia was about to come over, she quickly refused her, saying, "Aunt Yunxia, you can just sit down. You don't need so many people to help you."
Lin Qixia then turned and ran towards the kitchen.
Yunxia stood there, watching the busy figures of the Lin family members not far away, her eyes filled with complex emotions.
"Come and eat, Aunt Yunxia!"
After a while, Lin Qixia's voice rang out from beside the dining table, urging her.
"Ah?" Yunxia woke up with a start and replied, "Coming."
Then she sat down and picked up her chopsticks.
"Try it, it's the roast pork that Brother Xiao made." He Zhilan looked at her expectantly.
Yunxia hummed in agreement, then took a small bite.
"How is it?" He Zhilan asked.
Although Lin Xiao didn't speak, he was silently watching her with a nervous look in his eyes.
She smiled and said, "It's delicious."
He Zhilan and Lin Xiao both breathed a sigh of relief. "That's great." He Zhilan then quietly patted Lin Xiao's thigh, silently comforting him as she sensed his tension.
Lin Xiao was no longer so nervous at this point, and said to Yunxia in a deep voice, "If you like it, eat more."
"Yes, you two must be very tired today, you must eat your fill before going back," He Zhilan said with a smile, constantly putting food on their plates.
Soon, both the mother and daughter's bowls were full.
Yunxia was a little embarrassed to stop her, "That's enough, Zhilan, this is enough to eat."
Has the Lin family been doing so well lately?
They eat so much meat, they don't hold back at all.
Yunxia was astonished to see that they all looked perfectly normal, as if they had been eating like this every day.
