Chapter 21: Going to Bao Niang Embroidery Workshop
Mrs. Qin couldn’t stand people talking in a mushy way. As soon as she heard Beisitian’s tone, she gave her a glance, pursed her lips, and quickened her pace.
Luo Anping hurriedly caught up, turned his head and smiled at Beisitian, "Sis, hurry home. We’ve got some cracklings to eat today!"
Beisitian wasn’t someone who liked sentimentality either. Seeing Mrs. Qin’s expression, she smiled broadly, thinking, this mother-in-law is quite adorable!
The three of them made their way home, and by the time they arrived, the sun was directly overhead, and every household had already had lunch.
Luo Anguo stretched his neck out through the open window, looking outside, hoping for the three of them to return.
Upon hearing the door sound, he immediately looked over and saw the three come in, talking and laughing. He finally felt relieved, as this trip to the market took a bit longer than usual.
"Dad, we’re back!"
Entering the courtyard, Luo Anping let go of Mrs. Qin’s hand and ran inside the house.
Mrs. Qin had taken the basket from the cart halfway home. Now, she put down the basket, and Beisitian started picking out the items one by one.
Mrs. Qin went inside the house, feeling exhausted from the journey, especially with the basket on her back. With one old and one young at her side, she carried most of the load.
Beisitian was also tired but considerably better off compared to Mrs. Qin. After putting down the items, she went to the west wing’s firewood room to fetch firewood. She brought back a bundle of firewood, stuffed it into the stove, struck a match, threw it in, and quickly operated the bellows a couple of times.
The fire in the stove immediately came to life.
