After the hotel chef finished cooking dinner, Second Uncle Lu sent the chauffeur to send them back to the city. The four of them sat at the dining table and ate the chef's cooking. The three adults even drank a little wine. The atmosphere at the table was very harmonious.
"It's a pity that Xingzhi has returned to the army. Otherwise, there would be one more person to drink with." Second Uncle Lu sighed. "Ever since he went to the military academy, he has grown up. We have been apart more than together all year round. This time, he has returned to the army. I don't know when he will come back next time."
When Lu Xingzhi first went to the military academy, Second Uncle Lu was against it. However, with Lu Xingzhi's character, it was useless to say no to him. That guy had his own ideas since he was young. He made his own decisions.
"Today is the closed-door training. It's said that it will last for half a year. It depends on whether he has two days off after the training is over." Mother Lu sighed. "He is now in Luo City, Province A, which is closer to us. It's also convenient for him to go home. It's not like in Jin City, where half of the time was spent on the road back and forth."
The three adults talked about Lu Xingzhi's work. Jiang Yao did not interrupt. Moe squatted by her feet and pulled her trouser leg hard, asking her to pick up some meat and lobster on the table for him to try. Jiang Yao took advantage of the fact that the adults at the table were not paying attention and picked up a large piece of lobster meat for Moe.
Jiang Yao did not have a big appetite, but Moe's appetite was very big. In the end, Jiang Yao's portion of meat was basically in Moe's stomach.
They had dinner early. Not long after dinner, Second Uncle Lu asked the chauffeur to send Jiang Yao and the other two back to town. Therefore, when the three of them returned home, the sky had just begun to show signs of darkening.
Moe's belly was round from eating. He lay in Jiang Yao's pocket and yawned repeatedly. After returning home, Jiang Yao took the Chinese medicine from the county to the kitchen to boil it. She would apply it on Mother Lu later.
However, as soon as she walked into the kitchen, Moe suddenly jumped out of her pocket and ran upstairs at a very fast speed. Jiang Yao did not know what was going on, so she looked in the direction that Moe had left. Then, she turned on the fire on the stove and poured some water into it.
She was still waiting for the water to boil when Moe returned to her in a battle stance.
"When we weren't home this afternoon, two strangers came into the house. Go and check if there's anything missing."
Moe stood on the kitchen counter with his spine high. "The smell that belongs to them is still very strong in the house. They should have left not long ago. Judging from the smell, it should be two men."
Jiang Yao's hand, which is holding the pot lid, trembles. She frowns. Moe is an animal, and his sense of smell is more sensitive than that of ordinary people. He remembers the smell of his family. So, he suddenly rushed out just now because he smelled a stranger in the house?
"I just walked around upstairs and found that the smell in your room and the study was the strongest. The two of them should have stayed in these two places for the longest time." Moe used his paw to nudge Jiang Yao. "Hurry up and see if there's anything missing."
Jiang Yao nodded, but she still waited for the water to boil before putting in the medicine that needed to be put in. After adjusting the temperature, she went upstairs.
Father and Mother Lu had been upstairs for a long time, but they didn't say anything about a burglary. So, they probably didn't notice that something was missing or that an outsider had entered the house.
