There is Room For Abandoned Women In the 1980s

Chapter 172 What a great maternal love

 “No! I was in a hurry to come back and didn’t bother.”

Gao Guilan wiped her sweat with her sleeve and answered with a smile. It was only after her daughter asked this question that she felt her stomach growl.

“Mom, you eat a piece of cake first, and I’ll heat up your lunch for you.”

Zheng Xinyue almost burst into tears when she heard Gao Guilan's stomach growling. She stood guarding a large pile of food and couldn't bear to take a bite. Such great motherly love.

“Mom won’t eat it, so keep it for me, Xinyue. You don’t need to heat the food, and you won’t be afraid of the cold spot in the summer.”

Gao Guilan stood up from the ground, holding all the things in her arms. Smelling the sweet taste of the cake, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

“Mom, if you don’t want to eat, I won’t eat.”

Zheng Xinyue wiped away her tears of disappointment and said stubbornly.

I grabbed the mung bean cake from my mother’s arms and fed it to her. In such hot weather, the old lady walked dozens of miles of mountain roads, so she didn’t want to suffer from heat stroke again.

 “It’s better for me, Xinyue, I know how to love my mother.”

Gao Guilan was moved to tears. She took a small bite and refused to eat any more. She deliberately said with disgust:

 “Mom doesn’t like to eat, nothing tastes good at all.”

 “Then throw it away!”

Zheng Xinyue pretended to throw it away with a stern face, but Gao Guilan hurriedly grabbed it:

“My little ancestor, do you know how expensive this is? It takes three kilograms of big fish to exchange for just one kilogram!”

"oh."

Zheng Xinyue walked forward expressionlessly and raised the corners of her mouth where her mother could not see her. She was in such a good mood after coaxing her relatives to eat?

After entering the house, Zheng Xinyue hurriedly scooped a basin of cold water for her mother:

“Mom, there’s no one here right now, please wipe yourself and cool off.”

　　　“Don’t be afraid of anyone.”

 Gao Guilan regained her energy after eating a mung bean cake. She carried all the delicious food to her daughter's room. She took off her coat and vest and started washing them with a splash.

Zheng Xinyue hurriedly went to the kitchen to find the steamed buns that her sister-in-law had left for her mother at noon. She lit the stove, put oily steamed buns in the pot, cut them into slices and fried them in oil.

“Xinyue, what are you doing? Why does it smell so good?”

Gao Guilan scrubbed her whole body and the heat was gone. She went back to the house and put on clean clothes. She heard the clanging in the kitchen and smelled the aroma of fried steamed buns and ran to the kitchen to ask Xinyue.

 “Mom, you go inside and rest, I’ll be fine.”

Zheng Xinyue took the spatula and turned the wotou. When she saw that her mother had finished washing, she said with a smile.

 “Oh, this wastes a lot of oil! No need to heat it, just eat it directly.”

Gao Guilan looked distressed. She was only generous to her daughter and husband, and was as harsh on herself as she was on her daughter-in-law.

"How about that? It's too cold and your stomach will feel uncomfortable. I'll make you some egg soup later."

Zheng Xinyue looked up at her mother and winked playfully. This was an opportunity to show off her cooking skills.

"What? Eggs, that's not good. There aren't many in total. I'll save them for you to replenish your health."

Hearing that her daughter wanted to make egg soup for herself, Gao Guilan became anxious and refused to agree.

“Mom, let me tell you some good news. Didn’t Master Huang eat our eggs? I went to the warehouse today to have a look, and they sent them back. You eat first, and I’ll show you the surprise later.”

Zheng Xinyue lowered her voice mysteriously and counted the eggs on Master Huang. Anyway, her mother believed this.

 “Huh? Really?”

Gao Guilan was overjoyed immediately. She had not seen Master Huang give anything to her in the past few days, but she was so upset that she put three eggs on it and took back the good things she originally gave.

She ran to the warehouse every day to look at it, but every time she went there with high hopes and came out disappointed.

“Of course it’s true, otherwise the eggs are locked in your cabinet, can I take them out?”

Zheng Xinyue nodded fiercely. Gao Guilan no longer had any doubts and ran out excitedly: "I have to go and see. Master Huang can't just send three eggs. There must be other good things."
