Jiang Ran and Pei Jing came to the living room together, seeing Wang Cuilan and Pei Baoshan already seated there.

Chen Bing was also there, sipping tea while chatting with the other two.

The three of them saw Jiang Ran holding Pei Jing’s hand as they walked in, and they all looked over at them.

Wang Cuilan patted the spot beside her, "Ranran, come, sit down."

Jiang Ran went over and sat down, Pei Jing sat beside Jiang Ran obediently.

Chen Bing looked at Jiang Ran, "Ranran, the restaurant I booked is a bit far from here. It’ll take us some time to get there, so we should leave early to avoid delaying dinner."

After all, this is Beishi, not the small county town we were in before. Not everything is nearby, so it’s necessary to leave early when going to a further place for a meal.

Jiang Ran nodded, "Okay! I’ll go call Pei Yang and Shanshan, and they can pack up after we get back."

Anyway, after we return, there will be plenty of time to pack, no need to rush right now.

Just as Jiang Ran finished speaking and was about to stand up, Pei Yang and Pei Shanshan walked in one after the other.

"Sister-in-law, what were you going to call us for?" Pei Yang asked.

"To call you for dinner."

"Dinner? Great! I’ve been hungry for a while now."

As he spoke, Pei Yang even patted his stomach.

Actually, not just Pei Yang, Jiang Ran was feeling a bit hungry too.

They didn’t have a proper meal at noon, and just finished packing up, busy for half the day.

Since everyone was already hungry, they didn’t waste any time. They locked the door and got in the car, heading to the restaurant together.

Although Wang Cuilan heard from Chen Bing that the restaurant was a bit far, she thought they would get there in just a few minutes by car.

Unexpectedly, it took more than twenty minutes to reach the dining place.

Getting out of the car, Wang Cuilan was still shaking her head.

"Going this far just to have a meal."

Hearing Wang Cuilan’s words, Jiang Ran just smiled without responding.

It’s actually not that far.

In a few years when Beishi develops further, driving for half an hour just to eat would be quite normal.

This roast duck restaurant is very famous in Beishi.

Even though it’s just past 5 pm, there were already quite a lot of cars parked outside, and people coming and going at the main entrance.

To dine here, you either have to come early or reserve a spot in advance.

If you arrive late and haven’t reserved in advance, you probably won’t get a chance to eat.

Chen Bing not only reserved in advance but also booked a window-side private room.

Sitting at the table, they could look out the window to see the happenings outside.

The restaurant was decorated in a classic style, although there was still a difference compared to the courtyard house they lived in, it was quite nice.

Wang Cuilan was amazed, "A dining place like this, better decorated than some people’s homes, it must cost a lot!"

"Mom, since the place is nicely decorated, won’t you also be in a good mood while eating?"

Wang Cuilan gave Jiang Ran a look, "Do you really think your mom doesn’t know anything? Since it’s well decorated, the meal prices must be higher, otherwise, how will they make their money back?"

Jiang Ran looked at Wang Cuilan in surprise, "Mom! You’re really insightful! You’re truly my mom!"

"You’re just good at talking!"

Wang Cuilan was smiling widely, clearly very pleased with Jiang Ran’s compliment.

Chen Bing brought over the menu, inviting Wang Cuilan and Pei Baoshan to order, but both waved it off.

"We’ve never been here and don’t know what’s good to eat, you all order for us."
