"Mom, where are you going?" Mu Shuangshuang called out to Yu Si Niang, who was about to head out the door.
Yu Si Niang's face turned red all of a sudden.
She stammered, "Shuangshuang, I... I was just going over to see your grandparents. Your grandma is busy taking care of your grandpa and doesn't have time to cook, so I... I just made something simple to bring over."
"Something simple? Mom, our hen has gone missing. You didn't cook it for them, did you?" Mu Shuangshuang asked.
"Shuangshuang, do you want some chicken? Mom can cook another for you. After all, your grandpa is sick, and..."
Seeing Yu Si Niang looking flustered, Mu Shuangshuang shook her head. "Mom, that's not what I mean. I don't want to eat chicken! It's just that you serve them every day like they're the master of the house, exhausting yourself and getting mistreated!"
Yu Si Niang had been bringing meals over there for two consecutive days.
She went over in high spirits each time, only to come back dejected.
