Chapter 460: How Harmonious
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In his outward demeanor, Su Shen always seemed cold and indifferent. Yet, perhaps his inner emotions were more genuine than anyone else’s. How could he not deserve a bowl of glutinous rice from his own younger sister?
Gu Zi could only hope that this time, Su Jing truly understood, truly held her brother, a man not adept at expressing his feelings, close to her heart.
Once the glutinous rice was steamed, Su Jing lifted the pot lid, and a fresh aroma of rice filled the entire kitchen.
She poured the stir-fried diced mushrooms, corn kernels, squid pieces, bamboo shoots, fish cake bits, and fried peanuts into the iron pot, stirring until all the ingredients were evenly mixed with the distinct grains of glutinous rice. She added the seasoning sauce and stirred some more. As a final touch before taking the pot off the stove, she sprinkled a handful of chopped green onions, fully releasing the fragrance at that moment.
She carefully scooped the glutinous rice into a lunch box, a self-mocking smile tugging at the corner of her mouth. “My brother loves this dish, but I didn’t know how to cook back then. I never made it for him. It wasn’t until I met Tian Hai, who also loved his mother’s fried glutinous rice, that I started learning to cook… for his sake.”
As Su Jing spoke, tears welled up in her eyes. Gu Zi silently handed her a tissue and placed a large aluminum basin next to the iron pot, saying, “Just put the rest of the glutinous rice in here.”
Gu Zi didn’t know what to say. After all, her relationship with Su Jing had only just started to improve; they were not yet close enough for her to offer heartfelt comfort.
Gu Zi and Su Jing loaded all the food onto a small cart, not planning to eat at home first. They weren’t very hungry yet, so they decided to eat together at the factory.
As for the little girl, Gu Zi was still worried about her getting hungry. So, before they left, she made her some formula, handing her the bottle to drink as they walked. By noon, they had just arrived at the pig farm, where everyone was having lunch in the main hall.
Someone with sharp eyes spotted Gu Zi and her companions from a distance and called out loudly, “Sister-in-law has come to bring food for Brother Shen, hello, sister-in-law… Is this Miss Su Jing? Did you come together?”
This voice attracted everyone’s attention, and they all turned to look in that direction. Indeed, Gu Zi had come with Su Jing. The crowd looked puzzled, and someone quietly asked his wife, “Where did you hear the unreliable news that the Su family’s sisters-in-law are not getting along? Look at them, the sister-in-law is holding the child, and the younger sister is pushing the cart. How harmonious!”
The woman who was asked was also confused, thinking, wasn’t it said not long ago that Su Jing’s man was injured by Su Shen?
Wasn’t it all because of Gu Zi? When did they become so close? It must be just a superficial phenomenon.
Before she could figure it out, people around her had already started to praise, “Brother Shen’s family is so harmonious, it’s hard for our factory not to make money. People always say that self-cultivation, family governance, and world peace, Brother Shen is not lacking in any aspect!”
“It can’t be Brother Shen’s credit alone, our sister-in-law is also very virtuous, right? Only when she manages the house in an orderly manner and stabilizes the rear can our Brother Shen lead us without worries.”
“I think everyone in the Su family is the best, not only Brother Shen is good, sister-in-law is good, our Miss Su Jing is also sensible, she didn’t because of that Tian… Ah, look at me, I really can’t speak, anyway, Miss Su is also good!”
Gu Zi stopped outside the hall and laughed, “You are indeed people who’ve hung around Jin Long a lot, you all know how to speak. Seeing that you are so eloquent, we can’t be without a response. Su Jing made a big pot of fried glutinous rice today, you take it and share it. Consider it an extra dish!”
The workers and their wives thanked them when they heard this, and a big man carried the pot of glutinous rice out.
Su Jing watched this scene and felt relieved. She didn’t expect to be praised like this. This was the first time she felt the advantage of family unity.
At the same time, she also realized how foolish she had been in the past. She is a member of the Su family, she used to be biased towards outsiders, but she couldn’t do that anymore. Not only would she not benefit from it, but she would also become a laughingstock behind her back, which was not worth the loss.
When Gu Zi and Su Jing arrived at the office, Su Shen was buried in a pile of documents. Gu Zi called him, “Su Shen, your sister and I brought you food. You continue with your work, I will go and deliver food to my brother and Jin Long.”
Gu Zi remembered that Su Shen had said that recently Lin Cheng was learning something with Jin Long, so she could just deliver it to Jin Long’s office, which was located in the staff lounge.
