An Ning ate quickly. Just as she finished and was about to get up, Lin Cuihua yanked her back, making her stumble.
The force of the stumble made An Ning look at Lin Cuihua with suspicion. 'Is my own mother the real hidden master?'
'She's incredibly strong.'
"Who said you could get up? Even a workhorse gets to eat some grass and drink some water after a hard day's work. What's your rush?"
"Sit down!"
At Lin Cuihua's roar, An Ning plopped down cross-legged and rested obediently.
Watching the spectacle from the side, Jiang Xia pressed his lips together to hide a smile. 'So there *is* someone she's afraid of.'
"Jiang Xia, get going once you're done eating. Don't dawdle."
Jiang Xia turned his head to look at the grandfather who was rushing him off to work.
"You really are my dear grandfather, aren't you?"
"Heh, I wouldn't be so sure."
Jiang Xia rolled his eyes at his grandfather's joke, but he still obediently got up and went to work.
