Now, Huang Luoxiu said that he would return to the castle this weekend and make her a good meal. She was looking forward to the weekend.
For the first time, Zi Lingxi was looking forward to the weekend.
After Liu Ningning packed her things, she took out some pickled cucumbers and her own steamed buns from her luggage.
Liu Ningning looked at Zi Lingxi and said,””These are the steamed buns and pickled cucumbers my mom made herself.”
Seeing the things Liu Ningning was holding, Zi Lingxi suddenly felt like crying.
She missed her parents too, but they were no longer around. She grew up with her grandmother, who also liked to marinate these.
She still remembered her grandmother’s figure as she limped and worked in front of the stove.
She would move a stool over and sit by the side to watch.
As she thought about it, Zi Lingxi’s eyes turned red and she wanted to cry.
She missed her grandmother, but her grandmother was no longer around.
Liu Ningning saw that Zi Lingxi was about to cry and asked worriedly,””What … What’s wrong?”
Zi Lingxi sniffled.”No, it’s just that I ate this when I was young. My grandmother also marinates this. Can I try it?”
Liu Ningning’s eyes lit up when she heard Zi Lingxi’s words.
In fact, she was quite afraid that she would be looked down upon if she took out these.
But Zi Lingxi’s words made her feel much better.
She was actually grateful to Zi Lingxi.”I’m glad you don’t mind.”
“How can that be? I ate this when I was young.”
Zi Lingxi picked up her chopsticks and started eating with Liu Ningning.
As she chewed, Zi Lingxi thought back to the warm days she had spent with her grandmother when she was young.
At that time, he was young and had no worries. He thought that the food his grandmother made was delicious.
However, now that her family was gone, she had placed all her feelings on Huang Luoxiu.
That was her family, her only relative.
Zi Lingxi took a few bites, then took out a lot of food from her box.
“Here, you eat this too. My brother asked me to bring this.”
Zi Lingxi’s box contained a lot of snacks and food, all of which Huang Luoxiu had prepared for her before school started.
Liu Ningning looked at the snacks that Zi Lingxi had taken out and quickly shook her head.”No, no, these are too expensive. I can’t eat them.”
“I don’t really like to eat these snacks. I like the pickled cucumbers you brought. They remind me of my grandmother. To me, they’re expensive too. If you don’t take them, you don’t treat me as a friend. As friends, you don’t have to be polite.”
Zi Lingxi had been brought up by her grandmother, so she could understand how Liu Ningning felt.
She didn’t give her snacks or good food directly. She used this method to protect a girl’s self-esteem.
Liu Ningning looked at the sincerity in Zi Lingxi’s eyes and said gratefully,””Thank you,” she said.
“Treat me as a friend in the future. Don’t be so polite. I’m still thinking of finding a part-time job in the University. Let’s do some part-time jobs and earn some pocket money, okay?”
Zi Lingxi actually didn’t lack money at all. Huang Luoxiu had given her a lot of living expenses.
She didn’t want it at first, but Huang Luoxiu said that if she didn’t want him as her brother anymore, she didn’t have to take it.
So, she kept all the pocket money.
However, she knew that Liu Ningning definitely needed a part-time job.
She wanted to help her, and at the same time, she wanted to train herself. This way, she could enrich herself!
She wanted to become better in front of Huang Luoxiu.
Liu Ningning felt as if Zi Lingxi’s words were spoken in her heart.
She quickly nodded her head.
