Chapter 14: Another Ingenious Use of Space
Sun Mei slapped her mouth in annoyance. She was really flustered by her outburst. How could she curse in front of her child? It seemed that she had been spending too much time with Sun Liuniang recently and was being assimilated.
She walked over and slapped Zhao Zhitong’s bottom lightly. "You should learn the good things, not the bad ones."
Zhao Zhitong, being quite resilient and unafraid, said, "Mother, Elder Aunt is selling children; she’s a bad person. Grandpa Bai said that it’s okay to scold bad people."
"Grandpa Bai? Which grandpa?"
Zhao Zhitong replied, "My good friend."
Sun Mei and her husband didn’t know about the existence of Grandpa Bai in the space. When they heard Zhao Zhitong say this, they assumed she meant Scholar Meng.
"Stop making things up. What friend? You should call him Teacher. And his surname is Meng. Hurry back and eat. Look at your noodles; they’re already stuck together."

The dough prepared in the morning was almost ready. After finishing her meal, Sun Mei began to shape and steam buns.
Zhao Zhitong squatted by the vegetable garden in the courtyard, staring at the seedlings and chattering incessantly.
"Vegetables, grow up quickly, so I can eat you."
