Mrs. Huo wants to have a second child

Jiang Lijia put the cabbage into a wooden basin, scooped a few buckets of water and began to wash the cabbage.

Grandma Han on the side quickly lit a fire and put the washed rice into the pot. Soon, the aroma of rice filled the air.

"Grandma, I'm back!"

There was a noise outside the door.

Jiang Lijia turned her head and saw a thin and skinny boy with hair a little longer covering his eyes, a short-sleeved shirt that was washed white, and a disposable lunch box in his hand.

Han Fangyuan naturally also saw Jiang Lijia, but he did not show much enthusiasm for this sister.

Putting down the lunch box in his hand, he said, "Grandma, Brother Wang asked me to bring back some food."

"Didn't we tell this kid to stop sending us food?"

Grandma Han sounded a little helpless, but she still poured the food in the lunch box into the plate and brought it to the table.

"It's okay. I'll remember to pay you when I get my salary."

Han Fangyuan took the firewood from his grandmother's hand and added it to the stove, then started cooking skillfully. Except for a glance at Jiang Lijia when he entered the door, there was no more communication between the two.

Jiang Lijia bit her lip helplessly, feeling inexplicably nervous. It seemed that her brother was too indifferent to her arrival.

But she still felt that she had to break this situation. She came to find her brother and to shoulder the responsibilities of her sister.

"Han Fangyuan, I am——"

Jiang Lijia was interrupted before she could finish her words.

"I know, stay."

The boy's tone was just like himself, sounding indifferent, as if he didn't care about anything.

"Huh?" Jiang Lijia blinked blankly as she looked at the boy carrying the food out of the kitchen, her face full of confusion.

Stay?

Didn't he think that she came to him with nowhere else to go after being kicked out of the Jiang family?

Jiang Lijia made a bold guess.

The boy indeed thought so. After all, they were siblings, and their train of thought and ideas were surprisingly similar. They both believed that the other was desperate and needed them.

The three of them sat around a square table with several dishes on it.

Braised pork, shredded potatoes with vinegar, cold cucumber salad, and a clear cabbage soup.

The braised pork was sent by Wang Wazi, as Grandma Han called him. Probably because he knew there was a new young lady in the family, the portion of the dish was much larger than usual.

These seemingly simple dishes completely aroused Jiang Lijia's appetite. She secretly swallowed her saliva, but still waited obediently for Grandma Han to start eating.

"Eat it, it's not that complicated."

Han Fangyuan handed Jiang Lijia a pair of chopsticks and spoke softly, taking in her little movements just now.

Grandma Han picked up a piece of greasy and fatty braised pork with chopsticks and put it in the bowl in front of Jiang Lijia. "Girl, eat it quickly. The braised pork made by Wang Wazi is delicious."

"Um... ok, thank you grandma." Jiang Lijia looked at the pieces of meat in the bowl and found it a little hard to swallow, but she still did not refuse.

Grandma Han gave her another helping of shredded potatoes with her chopsticks. "Oh, you're really too particular, always saying thank you all the time. Please stop saying that. I, your grandma, don't like to hear that."

"Thank you, grandma." Jiang Lijia hurriedly picked up the bowl and took the dish that Grandma Han gave her, without forgetting to say thank you.

Grandma Han pretended to be angry and said with a stern face, "You are here again."

Jiang Lijia was stunned for a moment, then realized something and replied with a smile, "Okay, okay, I won't say it anymore."

"Hey~, that's right, a family says thank you."

Grandma Han patted Jiang Lijia's head lovingly and nodded at her, "Eat quickly, or the food will get cold later."

"it is good."

Han Fangyuan, who did not participate in the conversation between the two, just shook his head helplessly. Women tend to talk more when they get together.
