142 Embarrassment
Shao Xiaozhi and Shao Meiling were not very happy to go when they saw the dishes on the table, but they had to agree to the instructions given.
At the eldest section of the Shao Family, they were already done with food, and were just cleaning up the table.
When Shao Xiaozhi and Shao Meiling entered the room, Shao Taotao was carrying the last bowls into the kitchen.
Shao Meiling and Shao Xiaozhi did not see what the feast was like, but looking at the happy expression on the whole family’s faces as well as the layers of bowls which Shao Taotao had carried away, along with the remaining smell in the air, they could tell that the dinner must have been abundantly tasty.
“Eldest Aunt, my parents asked me to take you there for dinner, but you seem to have eaten already?”
These two girls were not well-mannered since they were taught by their parents. Ms. Fang did not want to throw temper at them, and said smilingly, “Yes, there are so many of us here, so we aren’t going over. We have eaten dinner. You can go home to eat yours.”
Shao Meiling nodded and left with Shao Xiaozhi.
“Dad, Eldest Aunt and the others already ate. They had already finished and the table was getting cleaned. The table was full of dishes!”
Shao Meiling pursed her lips.
They were all startled.
“What?”
“Eaten already?”
Second Uncle and the others turned to Eldest Uncle.
“…”
Eldest Uncle’s sweat dropped from his forehead. He was so embarrassed that he wanted to dig a pit in the ground and disappear.
“Oh yes, let’s just forget them, it is their bad luck not to have eaten dinner here, let’s just eat our food!”
“Eldest Brother!” Third Uncle sighed in disappointment. “Is she still mad?”
Ms. Ma pursed her lips. “Yes, otherwise what is she behaving like this for? She could have just carried the dishes here and we could have celebrated together!”
Second Uncle sighed too. “Eldest Brother, when will Eldest Sister stop this behavior? It is such a small matter! We have already apologized. Is she going to cut ties with us just because of that thing?”
“Of course not!”
Eldest Uncle denied directly, as he forced out a smile. “We can leave her alone. You know her well, right? She is sharp in tongue but soft in heart. She should forget about this soon.”
Since the guests were absent, Second Uncle and the others could do nothing but start the dinner.
At the dinner table, they kept showing passion to Eldest Uncle, who was so moved…
The following morning after breakfast, Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan told Ms. Fang about buying fields, before heading towards the town.
The crops were budding, and farmers had started plowing the fields and planting rice seedlings. Every household was very busy.
Qiao Xuan had to postpone the planting of mushrooms.
When the busiest period was finished, and the wedding of Shao Sanlang and Yang Xiaoni was done, she could come and get the mushrooms.
But she could start to make lipsticks.
Also, she could also start the planting of medical herbs.
With her superpower, she could always make sure that the plants grew well from the seedlings.
Those gastrodia in the garden were growing unbelievably well.
The watermelons were as big as small fists, round and green, spread all over the land. They looked really tempting.
Wild grapes were all over the stack, creating a large shelter whilst small grapes started to bloom and fruits were growing out.
The loquats, plums, and bayberries were also turning ripe, but Qiao Xuan intentionally controlled the growth so that they could stay on the branches for at least one more month.
