For lunch, they ate egg noodles, and Liu Yingying also blanched a few green vegetables.
Although it's simple, it tastes pretty good.
Someone came over right after I finished lunch.
Lü Sufeng, along with her two children, Shi Sanmei and her daughter Lin Cuicui, Wang Yulan, and several aunties and young wives from the village with whom she didn't usually interact, entered the courtyard in a grand procession.
"Sister Liu, yesterday was all so rushed, and no one was prepared. We've come today especially to congratulate you!"

Liu Yingying didn't respond to her, but instead smiled and instructed Zhaodi to bring over the sweet potatoes steaming in the pot for everyone to eat.
