Chapter 454: Lotus Seed Porridge, Bitter and Sweet
Wang Sanniang waited by the door.
“Mother, mother, put it on quickly!”
“And Candied Hawthorn! It’s so sweet, Mother!”
Wang Sanniang took the hairpin. She patted Ping’an and Ruyi’s heads and smiled. “Ping’an and Ruyi have both grown up.”
She felt very comforted in her heart.
After sending Ping’an and Ruyi inside, Wang Sanniang stepped forward. “Brother Chen, please take this little money. I can’t let you spend without payment.”
Chen Changsheng didn’t accept it. He shook his head and smiled. “That pin? It didn’t cost me any money. Ping An guessed it from a Lantern Riddle. The Candied Hawthorn was what I didn’t want to eat, so I saved it for them. Didn’t cost a thing. So no need.”
Wang Sanniang was about to speak, but Chen Changsheng cut her off. “It’s getting late. I should head back now.”
He didn’t pay Wang Sanniang any more mind. After returning to the courtyard, he closed the door.
