Mrs. Qi laughed, but she still agreed, saying, "Alright, I'll make it for us someday."
Director Song: "Do we have Sichuan pepper, star anise, bay leaves...those seasonings at home?"
Mrs. Qi nodded, "Yes, but not much left. I'll go buy more soon. With another month or so to New Year, the little we have won't be enough."
"Li Bao and Yanqing are probably going back to their hometown for the New Year."
Upon hearing Director Song say this, both Mrs. Qi and Song Xuan were stunned. Song Xuan asked, "Do Aunt and Uncle really have to go back to their hometown?"
Although he had heard Aunt, Uncle Guoan, and Brother Yang mention returning to their hometown for the New Year on the way home after the college entrance exam, if they really went back before New Year, he wouldn't be able to see Aunt and Ruirui for quite some time!
Thinking of this, Song Xuan couldn't help but feel a bit down.
