“Has Zhang Niansheng left?”
War Yin still remembered his love rival.
“I didn’t see him when I came back. Still jealous?”
After a silent moment, War Yin said, “You also said that my temper is like that, jealous, it might become a habit for me.”
If Sunan and the old lady were present, they would have had to stab him with words again.
Hai Tong chuckled, “I’ll give you sauerkraut every day from now on.”
If you have a vinegar jar, it would be a waste to not pickle the pickles.
“As long as you make the dishes, I love them all.”
“War Yin, this mouth of yours is anointed with honey, right? The words you say are getting sweeter and sweeter.”
The corners of War Yin’s mouth twitched, his grandmother always disliked him for not being able to say love words to Hai Tong, see, when he said two nice words, Hai Tong disliked his mouth as if it was smeared with honey, she probably didn’t like to hear sweet words.
The
“You’re busy, I won’t bother you.”
“Good.”
Hai Tong hung up the phone first.
War Yin moved the phone away from his ear and stared at the screen for a while, complaining, “Not even a word about missing me.”
Putting the phone down, he quickly adjusted his mood and threw himself into his busy work.
Hai Tong finished drinking the brown sugar and ginger water, cleaned the thermos, then took some fruits from the fridge, cleaned them, put them in a fruit plate and carried it out.
Mrs. Shang’s mother and daughter were sitting outside the cashier.
“Auntie.”
Hai Tong put the fruit plate in front of Mrs. Shang, “Auntie, have some fruit.”
“Thanks.”
Mrs. Shang thanked her and when Hai Tong sat down, she didn’t beat around the bush and said bluntly, “Hai Tong, I’m sure you’ve guessed the reason why I’m here today. I was separated from my sister when I was eight years old, and fifty years have passed, and during these fifty years, I have been thinking about my sister all the time.”
“Worried that she was not doing well in her adoptive parents’ home, and worried that she would not remember me as her older sister, I also often asked Mother Superior about her recent situation after she was adopted, but unfortunately all to no avail.”
“When I grew up and could afford it, I tried all sorts of ways to find my sister, it was not easy to find her before, now that the internet is developed, I thought it would be easier, still time and time again, I held on to hope and met with disappointment.”
Hai Tong had heard Shang Xiaofei talk about these details.
“After seeing your sister and Yang Yang, my intuition tells me that you are my sister’s daughters, Yang Yang resembles my sister as a child, and at your sister’s house, I also saw her wedding photo, she looks more like my sister.”
“I wonder if you could join me for a DNA test?”
Seeing that Hai Tong did not say yes right away, Mrs. Shang said eagerly, “No matter what the result is, I can accept it.”
Shang Xiaofei also said, “Hai Tong, if you don’t have time to go with us, you can give us a few hairs with hair follicles, and we can take them to do the identification without you being there.”
Of course, it would be better if Hai Tong was willing to go with them to the identification centre to have her blood drawn for DNA identification.
“If you’re worried about not having anyone to watch the shop for you, why don’t you go with my mother and I’ll stay and watch the shop for you.”
After Hai Tong waited for the mother and daughter to finish, she said, “Auntie, Xiaofei, you guys wait, I’ll call my sister and talk to her about it. I’ve spoken to Xiaofei about my mother’s situation, and I’m touched that my aunt hasn’t given up looking for my sister, but”
Her mother had been dead for fifteen years, and this result might be difficult for Mrs. Shang to accept.
Mrs. Shang’s eyes were red, she had been sad all day yesterday, and at this moment, the mention of her sister possibly having passed away for fifteen years made her throat feel like it was blocked and she couldn’t say anything.
