Lu Gui was dumbfounded and looked over to Lady Tian. Lady Tian chortled and shoved the rest of the cake into her mouth.
Lu Gui turned bitter. Was she his birth mother? He must've been adopted, that must be it.
Lady Tian finished her cake. Lu Jiao then snuck out two giant peaches for herself and Lady Tian.
Just to spite her son, Lady Tian didn't decline and the two ate happily.
Before, Lu Gui was hungry and felt like he needed food. Now, he simply wanted the peach. The peach smelled sweet and he could see how juicy it was. How tempting.
He's never had such a giant peach before and was certain that this didn't come cheap. Did his sister get rich?
The daughter and mother ate red bean cake and giant peaches and were no longer hungry. They walked back to the Xie Village without another break.
