From a distance, Lin Weimin, who was riding a bicycle, saw the wall of the family compound and could not help pedaling faster. He waved to the guard and parked the bicycle in front of his house at lightning speed. He did not even have time to lock the bicycle. He directly took off the net bag hanging on the handlebars and quickly ran up the stairs.

After opening the door, there was only a small light on in the living room. Lin Weimin quietly placed the net bag by the door and tiptoed in.

"came back?"

The sudden noise startled him as he was about to go upstairs. He turned around and saw that his mother, Wang Xiuqin, was sitting at the dining table with her head propped up, waiting for him. There was a net covering the dinner next to her.

"Mom, why haven't you rested yet?" Lin Weimin retracted his foot and stepped into the restaurant.

"What do you think? No one was around when you left. I was waiting for you to come back for dinner. Where did you go?" Wang Xiuqin stood up and prepared to heat up the food. "You two brothers and sisters are going to piss me off to death, right? You don't even want to eat dinner. Are you going to become immortals?"

When Lin Weimin heard this, he exclaimed, came over and grabbed his mother's shoulders, "Mom, Xiao Qiao hasn't eaten either?"

"What are you eating? You went upstairs as soon as you came back and haven't come down yet. Your two sisters went to call him but he didn't come down. I went upstairs to ask him to come down, but he just wouldn't come down! Just eat yours!" Wang Xiuqin complained and glared at her son.

Grinning, Lin Weimin said, "Mom, don't bother, I've already eaten outside!"

"Huh, eating with Xiao Li and his third uncle?" Wang Xiuqin's eyes widened even more.

"Hey, Mom, you really know everything. Nothing can be hidden from you!" Lin Weimin smiled and drove his mother upstairs. "Don't bother, I'll clean up! Xiao Qiao didn't eat, I have a solution!"

"What can you do? Can you be older than a mother like me?"

Lin Weimin smiled slyly, "Then don't worry about it! Go and have a rest, it's getting late! Go ahead!"

"I'm really getting mad at you kids day after day!" Although Wang Xiuqin said this, she still untied her apron and hung it at the kitchen door, then turned around and went upstairs while nagging.

After waiting for a long time, until his mother's footsteps really went to the third floor, Lin Weimin tiptoed to the door, took out the jar from the net bag, placed it solemnly under the dining table, smiled knowingly, and quickly went upstairs.

The Lin family's small building is quite large. The first floor is the reception room, dining room and study. The second floor is the rooms for the three younger sisters. The third floor is the master bedroom for Lin's father and mother. The fourth floor is the rooms for the two sons.

After going up to the second floor, Lin Weimin quietly listened at the door of Lin Muyu and Lin Youwei for a few seconds. After making sure that they were quiet and thought they were asleep, he came to Lin Chuqiao's door and knocked, whispering, "Xiao Qiao, open the door. It's me, your second brother!"

After knocking once but no one answered, Lin Weimin was not in a hurry. He smiled and knocked a second time. When the first knock of the third time ended, Lin Chuqiao's slightly tired face appeared behind the door.

"Brother, I'm asleep, do you have anything to do?"

Seeing his sister finally open the door, Lin Weimin smiled and pulled her away, "I heard you didn't eat, I'll take you to have something to eat!"

"Second brother, I have no appetite. Please go. I won't go!" Lin Chuqiao struggled slightly.

"That won't do. You're busy at work, you can't skip dinner! Besides..." Lin Weimin chuckled, "I have a surprise for you, I guarantee you'll be able to eat!"

"..." After staring at Lin Weimin for a long while, Lin Chuqiao didn't want to make too much noise for the family to hear, so she whispered, "Second brother, don't persuade me anymore. I really have no appetite today! I want to sleep..."

"Fourth sister!" Lin Weimin pointed downstairs mysteriously, "Just follow me downstairs. If you really have no appetite, I won't say anything and will personally send you upstairs to sleep! I've never asked you for anything, have I? This time, please come downstairs with me!"

"..." Hearing what her second brother said, Lin Chuqiao sighed helplessly, then followed him downstairs, came to the living room and sat down at the dining table. Seeing the familiar dishes after her second brother lifted the net cover, she stopped Lin Weimin who was about to heat up the dishes, and said weakly: "Second brother, don't heat up the dishes, I really can't eat! I'm leaving!"

“Hey, hey, hey, why are you in such a hurry!” Seeing that she had no appetite at all, Lin Weimin pulled her to sit down directly, “Do you know that this is what I’m going to give you to eat? No way! This is what I’m going to give you to eat!”

As he spoke, he lifted the jar from under the dining table onto the table and opened the lid. Immediately, a familiar sour and spicy smell rushed into Lin Chuqiao's nose. Lin Chuqiao's nostrils twitched, and she was a little confused.

She tilted her head and stared at her second brother in confusion.

Lin Weimin didn't say anything either. He handed her a pair of chopsticks and pointed at the jar.

For some reason, Lin Chuqiao was really aroused by the familiar sour smell. After struggling a little, she gave up resisting, took the chopsticks, tentatively stretched her neck and picked up a piece from the jar.

"It's ginger?" Seeing the crystal white ginger slices, Lin Chuqiao was immediately surprised and asked, "Brother, how did you know that I love this?"

She couldn't help but stuff the ginger slices into her mouth. When the familiar sour, sweet taste and the unique spicy taste of ginger filled the tip of her tongue, Lin Chuqiao couldn't help but narrow her eyes and chewed them carefully, with the light in her eyes slightly brightening.

One piece, two pieces, three pieces, Lin Chuqiao's chopsticks moved faster and faster, squeezing her pink cheeks until they bulged.

Seeing his sister like this, Lin Weimin finally breathed a sigh of relief. He smiled and picked up the dishes around him and turned to the kitchen. "I'll heat up these dishes for you too. You can eat some together. Mom has been waiting for you until now! Eat more!"

"Hmm!" At this moment, Lin Chuqiao felt her mouth watering and her appetite increased greatly. Her whole spirit seemed to become active all of a sudden. She narrowed her peach blossom eyes with satisfaction and asked vaguely: "Second brother, you are really amazing. How do you know that I like to eat this? Where did you buy it?"

"How could I buy it? Xiao Li's third uncle came to Yanjing today, and he brought it to you from Hongshan County! This was made specially for you by Xiao Li's mother!" Lin Weimin said while cooking in the kitchen.

"..." Lin Chuqiao was startled suddenly. She caught a glimpse of the jar full of ginger slices out of the corner of her eye. Only then did she understand why she felt so familiar with the jar when she saw it just now.

It turned out to be something from the Li family thousands of miles away!

After waiting for a long time, Lin Weimin heard no more sounds from the restaurant. Strangely, he came to the table quickly with a plate of fried wild rice stems. Just as he was about to ask his sister to have some more, he was suddenly stunned and said in panic, "Xiao Qiao, you...why are you crying?"

I don’t know when, but fourth sister’s face was already covered with tears.

It would have been better if she hadn't said this. Once she said it, it was like the last straw that broke the camel's back for Lin Chuqiao, instantly igniting the frustration, melancholy, and longing in her heart. She burst into tears, sobbing and wailing loudly.

"Xiao Qiao, fourth sister...sister, you...what's wrong with you? Don't cry, are you feeling sad...sister..." Lin Weimin was completely panicked.

Tapping.

Suddenly, footsteps were heard one after another.

Sisters Lin Youwei and Lin Muyu came out from the stairs.

Lin Weiguo and his wife Wei Lan, Xiao Qing caressing Wang Xiuqin, and finally Lin Jianzhou also came down from upstairs after hearing the news.

The huge living and dining room was full of people. Everyone was stunned as they looked at Lin Chuqiao, who was sitting at the dining table, crying loudly while holding the jar and carefully picking up a small piece of ginger and putting it into her mouth.

No one spoke, but everyone's eyes were red. "Please give me some good reviews, thank you very much! Ratings are also very important to young authors!"
