The grapes on the plate had a glistering appearance from the water droplets on them and looked especially tempting. There was also a pile of blueberries that smelt very fragrant.
"Try some of the fruits from our courtyard!"
Qiao Mei took a few grapes and handed them to Li Gui. She was afraid that Li Gui would feel uncomfortable and wanted her to open up more.
Li Gui tasted a grape and was immediately captivated by how sweet it was. Her eyes lit up, it was as if she had not eaten such delicious fruits in a long time.
She slowly relaxed as well.
"It's like this. Not long after I got married, your grandmother came to look for me and said that you were going hungry…" Li Gui said, her eyes looking like they were filled with memories.
Even after she went to the city, Old Madam Li would come and look for her every few months to ask for money and other things.
