Chapter 807: Chapter 808 Really Changed

"Great-Auntie..." Chiang Caijiao’s eyes reddened, and tears fell promptly, making her look as pitiable as could be.

Chiang Baoguo entered too, and after giving Song Xiyun a fierce look, he said to Chiang Caijiao, "Why are you crying? Your great-auntie will definitely give you some pastries. Just eat them and then get back to work."

As he spoke, he also said to Ge Liutao, "Second Aunt, since Caijiao came to the city, she has been feeling under the weather, not eating much every day. Look, she’s become as thin as a monkey. It’s rare for her to want to eat something herself; clearly, it’s because of Second Aunt’s excellent cooking."

"Great-Auntie, I really am so hungry," Chiang Caijiao said again in a small voice, wiping away her tears.

Ge Liutao couldn’t bear to see her looking so pitiful and quickly gave her another piece of the pastry.

These two pieces meant the loss of over a dozen yuan in income.

"Second Aunt, you can just put the plate down. Why keep holding it?"

The pastry Song Xiyun had just eaten felt like it was devoured without being properly savored, and only after finishing did she realize how delicious it truly was! Her eyes turned green with envy, and she couldn’t wait any longer, immediately reaching out to snatch the whole plate.

Chiang Songhai quickly stepped forward, took the plate from Ge Liutao’s hands, and in a swift turn, he placed it inside the highest cabinet, then he closed the cabinet door.

Without Chiang Baoguo’s help, Song Xiyun would need to stand on a stool to reach that height.

His action left both Chiang Baoguo and Song Xiyun stunned.

Since when had Chiang Songhai become so petty?

He was supposed to let them eat a whole plate of pastries without a word of complaint!

What was happening now?

Chiang Songhai maintained a composed expression, and although he felt a bit awkward and embarrassed inside, at least it didn’t show on his face. Moreover, it even made Chiang Baoguo feel his demeanor was somewhat cold.

"Sorry, but these pastries are preordered and can’t be eaten anymore. If Caijiao is hungry, one piece should tide her over. Tonight, Dongdong’s mother will make more food so that Caijiao can eat more."

This statement from Chiang Songhai gave Chiang Baoguo an almost ghostly sense of unease.

Was this really his honest, straightforward, and slow-witted Second Uncle?

Really?

The words almost seemed to imply they weren’t welcome to stay for dinner either!

"Second Uncle, by the sound of it, you’re not going to keep us for dinner. When did you become so stingy?" Chiang Baoguo’s face darkened.

Chiang Songhai said, "Your Second Aunt works hard preparing three meals a day. Today, with Little out, we planned to just have a bowl of noodles to get by, and we didn’t go grocery shopping, so we’re not prepared to host you." He gestured them toward the living room, "Come, take a seat and let’s talk."

Chiang Baoguo really felt Chiang Songhai had changed a lot. He snorted and pulled Chiang Caijiao down to sit on the sofa.

Song Xiyun, however, couldn’t stop thinking about the pastries, peering back at the cabinet after every few steps. She now regretted not eating the pastry in small bites, as she had stuffed it down in one go without savoring it. Only after finishing did she realize how good it tasted, how delicious indeed!

"Did Baoguo’s Wife come to the city with no plans to return?" Chiang Songhai glanced at her.

Though Song Xiyun had to give up on the pastries, her eyes still roamed around. She found the house genuinely nice, pleasant everywhere, spacious and bright, and clean.

"Go back for what?" She pursed her lips and said, "I go wherever Baoguo goes, otherwise there are temptresses all over this city, ready to snatch his soul away!"
