Chapter 149: Tomato Scrambled Eggs

AndSeeing her mother like this, Song Jiaren was also very sad, but she had no choice. This matter was betweens her mother and Uncle Ye. As her daughter, she couldn’t do that much.

However, Ye Zhentian’s expression was also very anxious. He had never experienced such a thing before. At this moment, Ye Zhentian seemed to have aged overnight. Originally, Uncle Ye would tidy himself up every day, but today, for the first time, he didn’t change his clothes. Song Jiaren noticed that Ye Zhentian was still wearing yesterday’s clothes.

“Uncle Ye!” Song Jiaren put down her bag and patted Ye Zhentian’s shoulder. She looked at Song Meiyu’s room. “Don’t worry, I believe Mom will get over it.”

Song Meiyu wasn’t the kind of person who would mope around forever after being wronged. Others might not know, but she knew her mother. It was just that Song Meiyu still needed time. They should give her some time to recover!

Then, Song Jiaren went to her room on the second floor. She had treated Yan Cheng until late night last night and fell asleep in a daze. She hadn’t even taken a shower, so she wanted to take a shower now.

After returning to her room, Song Jiaren went to the bathroom and took off all her clothes. Song Jiaren filled the bath with water and placed herself in the bath.

“I’m so tired, so tired…” Indeed, too many things had happened recently. Liu Meifeng fell off the cliff and died, Song Yoyo was kidnapped, and then her mother, Song Meiyu, was kidnapped. These things were replayed in Song Jiaren’s mind.

She shook her head hard and forced herself not to think about those things. She finally returned home, so she had to appear in her best state.

When Song Jiaren washed up and went downstairs, she saw that the living room was already empty.

Ding! Suddenly, a notification came from her phone.

…
Song Jiaren opened WeChat and saw that it was a message from Ye Zhentian. It turned out that something had happened at Jiang Cang’s school and the parents needed to bring their children to the school, so Ye Zhentian brought him along. Because Song Jiaren was washing up just now, she only saw the message now.

She looked at Song Meiyu’s room again. The door was still locked.

“Mom ~” Song Jiaren called Song Meiyu as usual, but this time, no one paid attention to her. Song Jiaren knew that her mother hadn’t walked out of it yet.

“It’s almost noon. What do you want to eat? I’ll cook personally today!” Song Jiaren walked towards the kitchen and took off a rubber band from her wrist to tie up her loose hair.

“Let me tell you, this is an opportunity that can’t be missed. If you lose it, you won’t be able to get it again!” She deliberately spoke playfully. Song Jiaren knew that Song Meiyu liked her acting like this.

However, the door was still locked and no one responded.

When she reached the kitchen, Song Jiaren opened the fridge first. She wanted to see what was inside. “Well, there’s really a lot of food inside!” There were eggplants, potatoes, chili, apricot mushroom, red persimmon, and so on in the vegetable area on the upper section.

There was also beef in the fresh food area. Tuna, pork, beef, duck, chicken, and so on that had been flown in previously were all prepared by Ye Zhentian.

After looking at it for a long time, Song Jiaren realized that there were many groceries, but she really didn’t know how to cook much. Then, a distant memory filled Song Jiaren’s mind. It was when Song Jiaren was nine years old, and it was also a parent-child event held by the school. She remembered that her mission that time was to cook a dish with her parents.

“Mom, there’s nothing to do. I’ll make tomato scrambled eggs.” As she spoke, Song Jiaren washed her hands and prepared to cook.

As the general manager of Jinsheng Corporation, Song Meiyu was originally very busy. She had already agreed to let her nanny, Aunt Liu, go, but because Song Jiaren threw a tantrum and insisted on her mother going, Song Meiyu had no choice but to decline a very important meeting and accompany Song Jiaren to that parent-child event.

At the event, they were asked to make a dish. When they heard that, the two of them looked at each other. This was because Song Jiaren knew that her mother, Song Meiyu, didn’t know how to cook at all.

Fortunately, there were teachers present to guide them in the end. They were specially there for parents who knew nothing about cooking.

When she chose to make the dishes, Song Meiyu didn’t hesitate. Without another word, she chose the scrambled eggs with tomatoes dish from a pile of complicated dishes. Later on, she told Song Jiaren that the reason she chose this was mainly because those parents had all chosen meat dishes. She was different.

At that time, Song Jiaren, who was still young, didn’t understand what her mother meant. She only nodded. When she grew up and thought about it again, she still felt that it was very funny. After laughing, it also triggered her to ponder over it.

How much did her mother love her? Otherwise, how could she be willing to push off such an important meeting for her? Also, she clearly didn’t know how to cook, but she still studied very hard for her.

“Ah!” Perhaps she was too engrossed in her thoughts that she didn’t realize that the food was already burnt. Then, oil splashed everywhere and her hand was scalded.

Covering her scalded arm, Song Jiaren squatted on the ground and cried pitifully.

When she looked up again, she saw Song Meiyu standing in front of her with tears streaming down her face.

“Mom!” It had been a long time since Song Jiaren felt so wronged. In the end, she threw herself into Song Meiyu’s arms.
