FSC [QT] Chapter 8.3

The candied haws were also made from hawthorn so that little fool would probably like them very much.

The candied haws on a stick were quickly bought. Although Diao Jindong had the physique of an adult, he was still just a child under the age of eleven. He was holding a bunch of candied haws on a stick that Huo Lindong gave him and was enjoying eating them.

Huo Lindong only tasted it before he was forced back by the pungent sour taste. Looking at the remaining candied haws, he did not know how to deal with them.

“It’s time for dinner. I heard that Juxiangzhai had released some new dishes. When I went to Juxiangzhai to deliver prepared pork a few times, I heard many customers praise it. Let’s go and try it today, okay?”

Because of their son’s conspicuous figure, Sister Diao and Huo An quickly joined them after buying jewelry.

As Sister Diao spoke, she kept touching the hairpin on her head with her hands.

“Mom, is your scalp itchy? Can I scratch it for you?”

Diao Jindong was so stupid that he stretched out his hand to scratch Sister Diao’s scalp.

“Auntie’s new hairpin? It’s very beautiful.”

The mood of the Diao family was easy to guess, so Huo Lindong followed Sister Diao’s wishes and praised the hairpin.

“Your uncle chose it. He also praised the hairpin as it looks very beautiful on my head.”

Sister Diao glared at her son. Who had an itchy scalp? She thought that it was this boy’s itchy skin.

Lindong is still well-behaved and sensible, and what he says makes people happy.

After getting the compliments she wanted, Sister Diao happily took the three young men to Juxiangzhai to eat. Perhaps because she was praised by two men in the family one after another, Sister Diao also felt that she was much more beautiful at this moment.

She walked like a tiger and was very powerful. With her little black bear-like son beside her, everyone around her subconsciously kept a foot away from them, and there was a vacuum around the family.

“I’m sorry. There were many guests today, and all the seats were occupied. I wonder if you would mind sharing a table?”

There are more people going to the city to buy New Year’s goods these days. During the New Year, it is the time when everyone is most willing to spend money.

Juxiangzhai is the most famous restaurant in Qingyang County. Even if they could not afford the delicacies in the store for a few taels of silver, everyone was still willing to spend a few hundred coins to eat a few bowls of noodles cooked in broth.

Therefore, Juxiangzhai is almost full these days, and sharing tables is common.

“Okay.”

Sister Diao and the others were not that particular. Huo Lindong was a bit of a germaphobe. However, after coming to Ping Village for so many years, the problems he had raised in his original family have been cured by reality.

Coincidentally, the person the waiter led them to share a table with happened to be the Jiang family. Jiang Baozong took his daughter and Mrs. Ding to choose clothes, measured the sizes, and rushed to Juxiangzhai, just in time to catch up with the last empty table.

They all came from the same village, so Jiang Baozong would naturally not refuse the request to share a table.

At first, both families were a little embarrassed, but soon, they got along harmoniously.
