"Miss Gu, what a coincidence! Are you out grocery shopping too?" Aunt Xiao, carrying a basket on her arm, blocked Jin Qianqian's path.
Seeing a piece of meat in her basket, Jin Qianqian replied, "Just taking a stroll. Have you finished your shopping, Aunt Xiao?"
"My daughter is coming back to visit today, so I had to buy some groceries to treat her," Aunt Xiao said, glancing proudly at the meat in her basket. "She's incredibly filial and brings bags full of gifts every time she visits. I can't let her feel shortchanged, so I have to at least make something delicious."
Jin Qianqian finally understood the old woman's purpose for stopping her. "You are truly blessed to have such filial children. By the way, this meat looks quite fresh. Did you buy it at the butcher shop up ahead?"
"I bought it precisely because it looked fresh! It's from the shop just ahead. But don't go to the second one. Old Zhao lost his motivation a long time ago, and the meat he sells isn't fresh at all."
