"Huh?"
"Mom, that's not right!" Yang Mei exclaimed. "If water spilled on the sofa, it would just get wet. Why does this water have such a strange smell?"
"This smell is really weird!" As she spoke, Yang Mei sniffed her hand again.
Seeing this, Feng Chunling's face turned red. This... this... How embarrassing!
Suppressing her shame, Feng Chunling explained with a straight face, "Oh, what strange smell could there be? Think about how many years we've had this sofa. We haven't washed it once since we bought it! It'd be stranger if it *didn't* have a smell!"
Hearing Feng Chunling's explanation, Yang Mei finally let go of her doubts. "Oh, is that so?"
Seeing that Yang Mei believed her, Feng Chunling breathed a sigh of relief and poured her daughter a glass of water. "By the way, daughter, I haven't asked you yet, what's your situation? How is it that you looked for a job for two months, couldn't find one, and just came back? You're a university graduate!"
