After Lord Yao left, Tong Huaqiong's eyes searched around for Gu Xiaoxue's shadow.
"Xiaoxue is in the kitchen," Chen Sufen said to Tong Huaqiong.
Gu Xiaoxue followed Tong Huaqiong home, rolling up her sleeves and working as if nothing had happened.
One could not tell that she almost orchestrated a rural poisoning incident.
Tong Huaqiong walked into the kitchen and saw Gu Xiaoxue sitting on a bench eating, with Tong Pandi sitting beside her.
"Aunt," Tong Pandi said, standing up when she saw Tong Huaqiong come in, knowing that she had something to say to Gu Xiaoxue, "I'll go check if Hua Er is eating properly."
Tong Huaqiong sat down next to Gu Xiaoxue.
Gu Xiaoxue was shoveling food into her mouth one bite after another.
Her aunt's family had good food, rich and oily. Chen Sufen and Tong Pandi had given her a lot of meat dishes, and there were even two large chicken legs in her rice bowl.
Such good food would never reach her at home.
Tong Huaqiong watched Gu Xiaoxue eat.
