Seeing Shi Guantao, Feng Qingxue was instantly taken aback.
"Comrade Shi Guantao?" she blurted out, noticing the surprised looks on Lu Jiang's and Shi Guantao's faces at the same time.
Lu Jiang's eyes flashed with a trace of confusion. "You know Comrade Shi Guantao?"
Feng Qingxue nodded and said, "Today, while queuing to buy grain, I happened to catch a glimpse of Comrade Shi Guantao and also learned from others about his past occupation and current profession."
Shi Guantao, hearing this, replied somewhat awkwardly, "Sorry to make my sister-in-law laugh."
"Family doesn't laugh at family! Come, come inside. You came at the perfect time; the dumplings just came out of the pot. Eat them while they're hot. The ones with the crimped edges are filled with cabbage, no spicy onion, specially made for the kids, so you should let them eat first. Adults like us can have the rest later. Ajiang, you entertain Comrade Shi Guantao, and I'll reheat the dishes you brought."
