Shang Xiulin, though the head of the academy, didn't have a single servant at home; all the household chores were handled by the old lady herself. If he had time, he would also lend a hand.
Tang Fei had seen with his own eyes Shang Xiulin carrying a hoe, digging and planting vegetables in the yard...
They took great pleasure in such tasks, feeling that it was simply a part of life.
Although many people had numerous drivers and nannies, they had lost the essence of living.
So, we shouldn't envy them at all.
Tonight's dinner was prepared by the old lady and Teacher Ran Ran, consisting of roasted chicken, braised pig's trotters, grilled lamb chops, snow crab soup, and several stir-fried home dishes—it looked full of color, aroma, and flavor.
The old lady's cooking skills were as excellent as always.
Seeing that the evening's dishes were good, Shang Xiulin said to Tang Fei, "Join me for a drink?"
