Chapter 326: 094: Meeting the Lifesaver_6

Grandma Lu also smiled, trying hard to control her emotions, not letting tears fall, "Good."

Lin Guixiang continued, "Let’s have dinner, I don’t know if the dishes I made will suit Aunt Jin’s taste."

Lin Guixiang had cooked four dishes and one soup.

Spicy crayfish, sour soup fish in golden broth, along with scallion-flavored tofu and a hot and sour enoki mushroom dish, as well as a tomato and egg soup.

All were very common home-style meals, yet Lin Guixiang cooked them to perfection, full of color, aroma, and flavor.

It looked tantalizing.

Seeing this made Grandma Lu swallow hard; it had been so long since she had such home-style meals.

"Guixiang, your cooking skills are really good!" Grandma Lu couldn’t help but compliment.

Lin Guixiang smiled and said, "Please sit down and try."

Grandma Lu sat down at the dining table, scooped herself a spoonful of the sour soup fish, the golden broth enveloping the thin slices of fish. One bite and the sour, spicy, fresh flavor exploded, with the fish cooked just right, firm and chewy, delicious enough to make one wanting to swallow their tongue along with it.

Grandma Lu then picked up a piece of scallion-flavored tofu. Unexpectedly, the uninspiring-looking tofu was distinctively flavorful and very refreshing.

"Guixiang, this is simply too delicious!" Grandma Lu looked up at Lin Guixiang, beginning to sob, "Even better than spicy strips!"

Spicy strips were Grandma Lu’s favorite, yet now, Lin Guixiang’s home-cooked meal had replaced her favorite. This spoke volumes about Lin Guixiang’s culinary skill.

"Really?" Lin Guixiang asked smilingly.

"Really, really!" Grandma Lu nodded hastily, "Guixiang, did you specially go to learn this?"

"Poor families’ children manage households early." Since her parents passed away early, Lin Guixiang had started doing laundry and cooking from a young age.

Practice makes perfect.

Back in those times of hardship, Lin Guixiang could even make a variety of dishes from simple potatoes.

As she finished speaking, Lin Guixiang added, "If you like spicy strips, I can make some for you tomorrow if I have time."

Hearing this, Grandma Lu looked at Lin Guixiang with admiration, "Guixiang, you can make spicy strips too?"

Lin Guixiang nodded slightly, "Yes, when I was young my brother and sister loved them, so I learned how to make them."

When she mentioned the word ’sister’, a clear dimness flashed in Lin Guixiang’s eyes for an instant.

In the future.

She would never have a sister again.

Grandma Lu picked up a spicy crayfish to eat; the flavor of the spicy crayfish was even better than what she had tasted in the night markets. She couldn’t stop eating them.

But as she was eating,

Grandma Lu suddenly felt something was off, ladled herself a bowl of the tomato and egg soup, took a sip, and tasted it carefully before saying, "Guixiang, did you put fresh perilla leaves in this tomato and egg soup?"

"Yes, I did add a little," Lin Guixiang nodded slightly, smiling, "Do you not like perilla leaves?"

"No, no,no, I like them a lot. It’s just a bit strange; I think not many people put perilla leaves in tomato and egg soup, do they?" Grandma Lu said.

Lin Guixiang peeled a crayfish and placed it in Lin Wu’s bowl, "I quite like perilla, so I have a habit of adding some perilla leaves whenever I make soups, not just in tomato and egg soup."

Grandma Lu just watched Lin Guixiang with a complex look in her eyes.

In that moment, she felt as though she could see another person’s figure through Lin Guixiang’s eyes.

If she remembered correctly.

Fang Youling also liked to put perilla leaves in various soups.

Previously, Grandma Lu did not used to enjoy such soup because perilla leaves had a distinctive taste, but after becoming accustomed to it with Fang Youling, she had come to accept it.

After that.

She had never met another person with the same habit as Fang Youling.

Until she met Lin Guixiang.

At this thought, Grandma Lu spoke again, "Guixiang, could I take a look at your left arm?"

Look at her arm?

Lin Guixiang was puzzled for a moment, then nodded, "Sure."

With that, Lin Guixiang rolled up her left sleeve.

Her skin was very fair.

The left arm was even more so, without a single dark spot.

Grandma Lu’s eyes widened.

She was somewhat stunned.

Lin Guixiang then said, "Aunt Jin, have you seen enough?"

"Seen, seen enough," Grandma Lu at last came back to her senses.

Although Tang Qiushui was not Grandma Lu’s daughter, Grandma Lu wished more than anyone for Fang Youling and Tang Shaowei to find their biological daughter.

Somehow.

For a moment just now, Grandma Lu felt that Lin Guixiang was very much like Tang Qiushui.

Whether in demeanor or in her way of life.

But...

There was no small black mole on Lin Guixiang’s arm.
