A quarter of an hour later, Bibi Dong came out carrying a pot of something unidentifiable.
"What is that?"
Qian Renxue and Ya Wen were both puzzled.
Shen Nuonuo had guessed what it was.
It had to be noodles.
Seeing Qian Renxue and Ya Wen staring at it, Bibi Dong calmly said one word.
"Longevity noodles."
She had originally wanted to spend some "mother-daughter time" with her daughter.
She had not expected Little Xue to like this aunt and older sister so much.
Bibi Dong carried the noodles to the dining table and set them down. "Sit down, all of you."
Then she turned around and took several small bowls and pairs of chopsticks from the cabinet.
Ya Wen and Shen Nuonuo did not stand on ceremony, sitting directly to Qian Renxue's right.
Bibi Dong lifted the pot lid.
A fragrant aroma rushed forth.
Qian Renxue immediately cried out, "Mom, it smells so good!"
Bibi Dong's longevity noodles had been made with broth, and they smelled incredibly delicious.
Shen Nuonuo's brows furrowed slightly. She seemed to smell that familiar...
Cilantro scent!
Help, she did not like cilantro at all!
Hearing her daughter's praise, Bibi Dong smiled and teased Qian Renxue. "Does Mom smell good, or do the noodles smell good?"
"Both smell good..."
Qian Renxue answered without thinking.
"Oh?" Bibi Dong raised a brow, her eyes curving into crescents. "Then who smells the best?"
"Of course my mom smells the best!" Qian Renxue answered without hesitation.
Bibi Dong laughed, her laughter carrying a touch of delight and cheerfulness.
"Hehe."
Qian Renxue laughed as well.
Only Shen Nuonuo stared despairingly at the cilantro floating in the pot.
Ahhhh, who understands? Once I have money, I'm definitely hiring people to eradicate all the cilantro in this world! (Not really.)
Bibi Dong, Ya
