Chapter 24 - 023 Tian Sangsang’s Facial Skin Thickness
"No, no, Auntie, that won’t do. I just ate at home—I’m absolutely stuffed." Tian Sangsang waved her hand and, with a serious expression, said, "I’m here for something else."
Realizing the atmosphere wasn’t quite right, Tian Guodong chimed in at the right time to ease things. "Sangsang, go ahead, what brings you here?"
"Uncle Tian, it’s like this—I made some sweet potato cakes and brought them over for you to try." Tian Sangsang glanced at them and added with a smile, "Our sweet potatoes were harvested today, and I couldn’t have managed without Auntie’s help. Plus, you all have helped me so much before, and I’m very grateful. You must accept these cakes; it’s just a little token of my appreciation."
Li Xiaoqin’s expression softened. "You made them yourself?"
"Yep." Tian Sangsang nodded and said kindly, "Sister Xiaoqin, you absolutely have to try them. And Dog Left, kids like him love these kinds of snacks. Our Yanyan already ate several."
"Thanks are enough—what’s the need to bring stuff? But since you’ve brought them, Auntie won’t be polite—I’ll try your cooking." Aunt Zhong accepted the cakes; after all, neighbors couldn’t really stand on ceremony.
"But my cooking’s not great, Auntie, so please go easy on me." Tian Sangsang playfully blinked.
Tian Guodong chuckled. "Sangsang’s getting better at talking, huh? Alright, we’ll all go easy on you."
