Grandma Gao listened with a hint of disappointment in her voice. “You’re right, of course, but it’s not certain that the shop will open in the city. I thought it was a sure thing. You don’t understand, ever since I tasted the braised meat from this shop, I’ve been hooked. I’ve been craving it. I was hoping it would open in the city, making it more convenient for people to buy.”

Gu Zi blinked her eyes and said, “That’s quite a coincidence. My mother happens to work in Pingshui Town. They brought quite a lot of braised meat from that shop this time, all freshly made. I’ll pack it up with some other good stuff and bring it to you tomorrow.”

Upon hearing this, Aunt Gao was overjoyed. She rushed home and returned with two cheongsams. “I noticed that your mother and I have similar figures. Upon closer look, she’s quite a beauty. Women should dress up when they can. These two cheongsams were custom-made for me last month. I’d like to give them to your mother as a gift. Have her try them on. If they don’t fit, she can have them altered.”

Gu Zi looked at the two cheongsams. The patterns on them were hand-embroidered, exquisitely done, and there were pearls adorning the collar. They must have cost a pretty penny.

She politely declined, “Grandma Gao, this is too much. My mother brings you braised meat, and you give her handmade cheongsams in return? No, they’re too valuable. Just give me the address of the cheongsam shop, and I’ll take my mother there to have a couple made.”

Upon hearing this, Grandma Gao ignored Gu Zi’s protests. She left the cheongsams and went out for a while. When she returned, she called An Yun in.

Before An Yun could ask what was going on, she was already wearing a red cheongsam embroidered with large peonies under the old lady’s urging.

At that moment, even without makeup, An Yun’s complexion was brightened. The cheongsam fit her perfectly, giving her an air of elegance and grace.

Grandma Gao was very pleased with the effect. “See, changing into a different outfit is like becoming a different person. Look how beautiful you are, Gu Zi’s mother. From now on, I’ll call you Little An. You must accept this gift from me.”

An Yun was taken aback by the valuable gift. Naturally, she couldn’t accept it, but the old lady didn’t give her a chance to refuse. After saying her piece, she left with her grandson.

The moment Lin Lao’er saw An Yun, his eyes were filled with nothing but her. He lavished praise on his wife, “You look so beautiful, An Yun. You should dress like this more often.”

What Lin Lao’er didn’t say was that his leg was gradually getting better. Once it was fully healed, he was determined to take over his wife’s duties and work at the braised meat shop. By then, his wife would be able to relax a lot more. He hoped that at that time, his wife could rest more, take care of herself, dress up, and shine brightly like their daughter.

Lin Lao’er’s gaze at his wife made Gu Zi, who was standing by, feel a bit sour. “Sister-in-law, Mom and Dad look like a couple in their honeymoon phase. Meanwhile, we’re all alone. My brother just left, and my husband Su Shen is away on a trip. Sigh…”

An Yun felt embarrassed and looked away. “We’re an old couple. What are you talking about? Gu Zi, you’re really something, teasing your parents like this.”

After saying this, An Yun ignored everyone else and went into the kitchen to prepare dinner. Li Hua and Gu Zi also went in to help. Gu Zi didn’t need to worry about the yard because she knew that Su Bing and Su Li would clean it up.

In the kitchen, the three of them had clear roles. Not long after it got dark, the Su family began their dinner.
