After the proposal succeeded, Xu Xingguang immediately stood up.
She jumped from the corridor to the yard, picked up a corn stalk, and broke off the tender corn. She said to Huo Wen'an, "You're not feeling well, let's have corn mush for lunch."
After saying this, Xu Xingguang asked Huo Wen'an, "Have you ever had this stuff?" It's rare to find authentic corn mush now.
Huo Wen'an said, "I had it when I was little. Back then Grandma Zhong was still alive. Her family had an old stone mill, and every time the corn was ripe, she would make some. Her family had a little granddaughter who was five years old at the time and got along with my sister. I went to pick my sister up from her place and had it there."
Huo Wen'an couldn't clearly remember the specific taste of that bowl of corn mush, just that it was particularly sweet.
"Being handsome is just appealing," Xu Xingguang said.
Huo Wen'an shook his head, "With a mom like that, they wouldn't dare get too close to me."
