Xiao Ruo glanced at Lady Meng and asked, "Prime Minister's Wife, are we waiting for someone?"
Lady Meng held Xiao Ruo's hand and replied mysteriously, "You'll find out soon enough."
Her husband instructed her to keep it a secret from Xiao Ruo for now, so she obliged. After all, her husband couldn't possibly harm Xiao Ruo.
The kindness on Lady Meng's face warmed Xiao Ruo's heart, and she didn't press further, "Alright."
"Grandma Miao, Ma, these pastries are so beautiful, can I try them?" Xiangxiang's chirpy voice rang out from the table.
Lady Meng glanced over and saw Xiangxiang staring at the green pastries with such desire that drool almost trickled down. She said jovially, "Go ahead, eat. If you like them, next time at the Prime Minister Residence, whatever Xiangxiang likes to eat, I'll have the chef make it, alright?"
"Thank you, Grandma Miao." Xiangxiang grinned happily at Lady Meng.
Lady Meng's heart melted, wishing she could take this child home with her.
