"It's fine even if you've eaten, have some more at my place. Our bean paste buns are especially delicious," Xiao Qi said, letting Xiao Hetao accompany Xiao Tanzhi to the side room to sit and eat.
"Sister, we just saw Yin Suo and her mother at the temple," Xiao Qi told Lian Manman as they walked toward the main courtyard.
Today is the second day of the month, and Lian Lanlan returned to her mother's house, which is not unusual.
"Just the two of them? Are they just arriving now? Did they take a cart?" Lian Manman asked casually.
"Sister, I saw them leaving the village and heading to the town," Xiao Qi quickly replied.
This was a bit strange, making Lian Manman stop in her tracks. Lian Lanlan visiting her mother's house, even if not staying overnight, should at least stay for lunch before leaving. But at this Chinese hour, even if Lian Lanlan left the county town super early and arrived at Thirty Mile Camp early, there wouldn't be enough time to eat lunch.
