Huo Yuping was both delighted and flabbergasted. The girl was skilled in anything and everything.
Both the young and the old were busy plowing, planting, and watering the land till the afternoon.
Huo Yuping smiled at the girl. "Are you tired?"
Shen Xi nodded. "Yes."
"You should be, and here I thought, you don't feel a thing!" Huo Yuping's heart went out to her. "Great work. Let's have lunch."
Shen Xi was a well-behaved girl, especially towards an elder who deserved her respect. Since her arrival in the morning, Shen Xi had a vague idea where he was coming from.
The Huo family's chef cooked well, preparing four dishes and a soup with a mix of meat and greens. The well-balanced meal may taste a little bland but it was understandable since food for the elderly should not be overseasoned.
