Chapter 127

Jessica ordered two dishes without much thought.

Timothy picked up the menu and proceeded to order a whole slew of dishes.

Jessica frowned.

She didn't believe in wasting food.

At home, she might prepare a variety of meals, but she always kept the portions

small.

She tried to make sure there were never too many leftovers.

Her grandmother used to say that wasting food was like throwing away good fortune.

The more blessings you had, the more abundance you'd enjoy.

Someone like Timothy-able to amass so much wealth-must truly be a man favored by fortune.

As his wife, Jessica never took part in his business affairs, but at home, she did everything she could to keep things in order.

She treated every member of the household staff with kindness.

She respected his elders.

She cared for his family as if they were her own.
