Chapter 1222: A Little Lost and Sad
She said gently, “Mianmian, if you like to eat my noodles, you can come over and eat it from now on. I can cook a lot more dishes for you in the future.”
Qiao Mianmian felt that Madam Bai had s.h.i.+fted her feelings towards her because she looked like her daughter.
She couldn’t help but think of Bai Yusheng.
That was probably why he treated her so well.
He felt that she looked like his younger sister when she was young. Like Madam Bai, he transferred his feelings to her.
So, if the daughter of the Bai family really returned, would she still receive such treatment in the future?
Definitely not.
Qiao Mianmian couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed.
Although this was human nature, she could understand why Bai Yusheng and Madam Bai would not treat her as well in the future.
However, she still felt a little disappointed and sad.
Perhaps it was because she felt the warmth of a home from the Bai family and the happiness of being loved by her family that she hoped that this warmth and love could continue.
That was why she was afraid and scared about losing it.
“Sigh, you’re just too skinny. If you have the time and opportunity, how nice would it be for you to move to my place? When the time comes, auntie will help you nourish your body. I guarantee that in less than a month, you’ll be fair and fat.”
Qiao Mianmian wasn’t very skinny, and her figure was rather standard.
But in the eyes of Madam Bai and her generation, she was too thin.
She felt sorry for Madam Bai.
Madam Bai’s noodles were delicious, and Qiao Mianmian was also hungry, so the bowl of noodles was quickly finished.
Looking at the empty bowl, Madam Bai was extremely satisfied. “Mianmian, are you full? If you’re not, Auntie will make something else for you.”
“Auntie, I’m full.”
Qiao Mianmian knew that Madam Bai probably had maternal instincts now, so she quickly said, “I’m full. Thank you for cooking this bowl of noodles for me.”
“You’re welcome.”
Madam Bai patted her head and then held her hand and said in an intimate tone, “In front of Auntie, just treat it as if you’re in front of your own family. Don’t stand on ceremony with me. The banquet should be starting now. Let’s go out and take a look.”
“Okay.”
…
Madam Bai had just pulled Qiao Mianmian out of the kitchen when she saw Shen Rou walking towards them.
And Qiao Anxin.
“Auntie Bai.”
Shen Rou held a gla.s.s of red wine in her hand and walked towards Madam Bai with a smile.
She ignored Qiao Mianmian and said to Madam Bai directly, “Aunt Bai, I was just about to propose a toast to you. Although today is Brother Bai’s birthday party, it’s also your day of suffering. Every mother in the world is n.o.ble. Thirty years ago, it was you who gave birth to Brother Bai on this day. You’re the greatest mother, Aunt Bai. Let me toast you.”
Shen Rou’s expression and words were sincere. After she finished speaking, she raised her wine gla.s.s to Madam Bai.
On such days, most people would congratulate the birthday girl.
Madam Bai did not expect that Shen Rou would actually remember that today was her day of suffering and even specially came over to toast her.
Madam Bai was touched by her words. She originally had a good impression of Shen Rou, and now she felt that she was a sensible person.
