Because her mother was great at cooking, Huo Mian rarely cooked . Now that she was cooking, Yang Meirong felt incredibly comforted by her daughter's gesture .
She sat on the couch eating sunflower seeds and watching TV shows . For some reason, hints of warmth crept into her heart .
Although Yang Meirong missed Zhixin, she knew that Zhixin was safe in New Zealand, so she didn't worry about him .
The only thing worrying Yang Meirong now was that Huo Mian was still not pregnant… Her mind was constantly filled with the thought of this .
Huo Mian was good at making dumplings, and she quickly made forty white dumplings .
Then, she boiled water and put the dumplings in the pot . . .
Yang Meirong was worried about her daughter, so she walked into the kitchen and watched her from behind .
"Mom, why are you here again, I said that I don't need you . " Huo Mian laughed, trying to conceal the sadness in her eyes .
"I'm worried that you might mess up . "
"No way . "
"You know how to cook them, right?" still unsure, Yang Meirong frequently looked into the boiling pot .
"I know, you've taught me many times . Lid off to cook the skin and lid on to cook the filling . "
Only then did Yang Meirong nod, somewhat convinced by her daughter's skills . . .
Ten or so minutes later, Huo Mian placed two plates of steaming dumplings onto the table .
"Mom… dinner's ready . "
Yang Meirong washed her hands and silently sat down with her daughter . . .
"I wish Zhixin were home," Huo Mian suddenly said, a little depressed .
"Zhixin? If he's home, we would have had to make thirty more, okay?" Yang Meirong smiled .
Huo Mian helped her mom make some garlic sauce and put a dumpling in her bowl .
"Mom, try this . Give it a good review . "
Yang Meirong lowered her head and bit it gently, then, she slowly chewed .
"How is it? How is it?" Huo Mian quirkily asked .
"Mhm, it's okay . "
After hearing that, Huo Mian smiled . She knew that her mother didn't like to compliment others, as long as she said it was okay, or it wasn't bad, it meant that she liked it .
"You need to eat more too . You don't look good, have you been too tired lately?"
Yang Meirong looked at her daughter heartachingly . . .
"No, everything's been good . " Huo Mian lowered her head and ate slowly . The truth was, her heart was in great pain .
She really wanted to tell her mother that she wasn't her biological daughter, but she thought that it would be too cruel .
It would be better if she didn't tell her mother . If she didn't survive tomorrow, then that secret would be buried forever, right?
Thinking about that made Huo Mian look up and smile at Yang Meirong with tears in her eyes .
"Mom, I love you so much . "
"Kid, why are you so emotional all of a sudden?" Yang Meirong thought that Huo Mian was behaving really weirdly today .
But she couldn't tell what was wrong exactly . She looked fine and didn't have any injuries on her body .
"Nothing, I just want to tell you that I love you . " Huo Mian held in her tears and tried her hardest to smile .
"Right, you went traveling . Did Qin Chu go too?" Yang Meirong suddenly asked .
Hearing Qin Chu's name made Huo Mian's hands shake a little .
"He… He didn't go with me, he's pretty busy with work . "
"No matter how busy you are, you have to take care of your body… Also, don't think that I am annoying, but remember to take your Chinese medicine, fix your body, and have kids as soon as possible . "
"I know, Mom," Huo Mian lowered her head even more, scared that she couldn't control her tears .
At this moment, her mother's nagging seemed like a luxury . . .
If possible, she wanted to listen to her mom nag her and Zhixin forever . . .
Because nagging was a form of love . Those who didn't care about you wouldn't repeat the same things, over and over again .
After having dinner with her mother, Huo Mian washed all the dishes . Then, she helped her mom clean the living room too .
It was already eight thirty at night when she finished . . .
"Mom, I am leaving . "
"Mhm, go home . Qin Chu's probably bored at home . You guys need to be good to each other . "
"Mhm . " Huo Mian obediently nodded .
When Yang Meirong saw Huo Mian out, Huo Mian suddenly turned around and hugged her mother .
