“Mom, I'm hungry!”

It was already afternoon, but lunch was taking a long time to appear on the table.

The kitten girl, with her belly rumbling, padded up to the door with her hands, peeking into the kitchen, her ears drooping with fatigue: “I'm so hungry.”

Her mother was preparing the ingredients, with meat stewing in the pot, the kitchen filled with the rich meaty aroma.

Without looking up, she replied, “Your sister will be back soon. We'll eat when she gets home.”

“When will my sister be back?”

“In an hour?”

“I'm so hungry now...”

She took a small bowl, lifted the lid of the pot, and used long chopsticks to take out a few pieces of braised pork with a mixture of fat and lean meat. “Then you eat first.”

"Okay~”

Black Bean excitedly dashed into the kitchen, grabbed the small bowl and ran out, shouting excitedly, “Sister is coming back!”

Her mother could only smile and shake her head. After some time of correction, Black Bean had gradually gotten used to calling Ning Chu “sister”.

This cat girl was registered under her name, and her name was Ning Xin, and Black Bean became the cat's nickname.

After finally raising two children, one became a designer working away from home, and the other went to university without her having to worry about it, and she had not enjoyed her retirement for long before she inexplicably had another child.

Perhaps it was because of her previous experience as a stray, but although Black Bean is a bit of a rascal during the week, she is very obedient and doesn't need much care.

She has gradually become accustomed to her “human” identity and abandoned her former habits as a cat. She has also done very well in the cram school. In just a few months, the kitten that was wandering the streets and eating garbage in September has gradually caught up with the progress of the second grade of elementary school.

Her mother plans to directly transfer Black Bean to the fourth grade next September.

With six dishes and a soup, she was busy almost the entire afternoon.

After serving all the food on the table, she glanced at the side and saw the hungry Black Bean, who was about to drool, and covered the gauze vegetable cover.

“Don't look, go downstairs and pick up your sister.”

“!!!”

Black Bean immediately forgot about the delicious food on the table and eagerly ran to put on her shoes.

"After my sister comes back, will she not leave?”

“She has to go back to school in a month."

Her mother put a white fur hat on Black Bean and took the cat's hand as they left the room.

The residential area was built at the beginning of the century, and most of the buildings were residential buildings with less than 20 floors, with two households per floor. However, after all this time, the entire residential area was somewhat run-down, and the corridors were full of graffiti and advertisements.

Originally, most of the wall space in front of the door was covered with Ningchu's childhood graffiti, but now there were also Black Bean's graffiti.

There is a large semi-circular flower bed at the entrance to the residential area, and once you leave the area, there is a path along the stream. The banyan trees planted along the path shade the sky and block out the sun, bringing the whole road under their shade.

My mother went outside the residential area and sat by the flower bed, waiting patiently, while Black Bean, who could never sit still, squatted on the flower bed, destroying the flowers and plants.

In a few minutes, a ride-hailing car slowly drove into the path and stopped at the entrance to the residential area.

The door was opened and a girl with long hair casually hanging down got out of the car excitedly. She was wearing a white down jacket, the hem of her clothes covering her hips, and slim black jeans that showed off her long, straight legs.

As soon as she got out of the car, she eagerly came forward.

“Mom! Hei Dou!”

"You actually came out to meet me~”

Ning Chu leaned forward, affectionately rubbing the little black head of Heidou, then looked at her mother with a playful smile, “I'm hungry, I purposely didn't eat for two days waiting to eat what you cook!”

“So you didn't come back the day before yesterday after the exam?”

“Wasn't there something?”

Ning Chu turned her head to look at the online car service, Wen Yang had already taken out two suitcases and walked slightly nervously towards her.

She glanced at her mother's gentle smile and let out a sigh of relief. She gave Wen Yang a wink.

"Mom, Wen Yang is here too.”

“Hello, auntie. Sorry to disturb.“

”I'm not blind.“ Her mother watched her little actions and sighed helplessly, ‘Let's go home for dinner.’

It's just like him.

Every time she saw her daughter with that poor boy, her mother's eyes were full of the image of her own youth.

Therefore, she knew clearly that, with Ning Chu's temperament, if she strongly opposed it, she might not be able to stop her daughter from eloping, just like she did back then.

”Brother-in-law~”

Black Bean ran up to them, holding Wen Yang by one hand and Ning Chu by the other, swinging them back and forth like a seesaw. “Did you bring me something to eat?”

“I brought lots of snacks. I'll give them to you when we get back.”

“Mom doesn't let me eat too many snacks...”

“Just eat a little.”

With Black Bean around, Wen Yang's nervousness in the face of her future mother-in-law

subsided considerably. She looked curiously at the neighborhood where Ning Chu had grown up.

The four of them walked slowly through the community, and Ning Chu, holding Black Bean's hand, asked her mother with a smile.

“Mom, is Black Bean still behaving herself at home?”

“She's doing quite well. At first she didn't want to go to cram school, but now she's not happy if she's not allowed to go.” Her mother laughed and covered her mouth. “She's very popular with her classmates and teachers at cram school.”

"Doesn't she look a bit chubby? Mom, you need to keep her in check.”

“She's only gained a few pounds. It's okay for her to eat more when she's growing.“

The mother and daughter were chatting when a shout suddenly came from a distance: ‘Xiao Juan! Are you playing mahjong this afternoon?’

Ning Chu froze for a moment, then looked up and saw a familiar middle-aged woman sitting at the entrance to the snack bar.

She was a mahjong playing friend of her mother's.

”No, I have some things to do this afternoon,” her mother said with a smile and a shake of her head.

“Who is this girl next to you? I've never seen her before.“

”She's family.“

”Another one?“

Seeing her friend's shocked expression, her mother laughed even more happily. She lowered her head and whispered to Ning Chu, ‘If she knew you had become a girl, would she be shocked?’

”Mom~"

Ning Chu tugged on her mother's sleeve, objecting like a spoiled child.

She blushed slightly. Although it was not her intention to become a girl, she still did not want to mention her former identity as a male.

Just thinking about her former gender, and then looking at her own body, which had become increasingly feminine and attractive... her sense of shame always overwhelmed her mind.

Her mother sighed helplessly, “So shy... can't we even hide it from your grandparents?”

“Well...”

"They've been talking about you every day recently, and they want you to come over and stay for a few days.”

Ning Chu pursed her lips in worry.

Fortunately, her grandmother was also a demon, and she believed that they would understand why she had turned into a girl, and would not dislike her because she was now a granddaughter.

However, just the thought of having to face them as a woman made her feel guilty.

“Let's wait a few days and see what happens,” she could only continue to use delaying tactics.

They took the elevator to the front door, and her mother used the key to unlock the door.

Heidou was famished and tugged at Wenyang and Ningchu's hands, hurrying to the dining table: “Dinner's ready!”

“Brother-in-law! My mother is a great cook!“ She sat down in her chair and stared at the food.

”Let's eat first.“

Heidou eagerly took his chopsticks and quickly picked up a piece of fried spare rib, until his mother opened the food cover with her own hands.

”Apart from being greedy, you're not acting like a cat anymore.“

Ningchu laughed, resting his chin in his hand, ‘Mom, you've taught him well.’

”Isn't that right?”
