Chapter 732 Tears Instantly Filled Her Eyes!

Bianca felt relieved when she found that Luke was alive.

Around noon, Tommy said that he was hungry, while Old Master Rayne said that he was craving cornbread buns with collard greens.

He was already quite old, and he missed comfort food from his younger days. Furthermore, he was sickly, and it was natural that he had specific cravings.

Bianca almost missed the taste of cornbread too.

She had lived with her grandfather since young. They were poor, and they ate cornbread for most meals.

Grandpa used to make his own cornbread in the kitchen, and Bianca had learned how to do so by watching him.

Cornbread was quite tasteless and rough, but it was delicious to her because she was hungry and poor. Now that her living conditions had improved and the food at every meal was of much higher quality, it was nonetheless healthy to eat grains sometimes. It might help Old Master Rayne in his recovery too.

Bianca got the driver to go to the grocery store and bought a bagful of cornmeal and collard greens. She would be making cornbread for her grandfather this

time.

When the driver returned with the groceries, Bianca went to the kitchen with a caretaker, while the other caretaker took care of Old Master Rayne in the front yard.

Tommy stood on a stool and watched his Mommy and the caretaker hard at work.

Bianca might not have cooked for a long time, but she maintained her culinary skills.

She mixed the cornmeal and flour in a bowl with the correct proportions, added some sugar, baking soda, salt, and eggs, and mixed it well with her hands.

While she did so, she gave instructions to the caretaker. "Aunt Jemma, please wash the collard greens and remove the wilted leaves, then poach them for a while and mince them."

Aunt Jemma was impressed with what Bianca was doing. "I didn't expect that you would know how to make cornbread. I'm embarrassed to say that I don't."

Aunt Jemma was born and raised in the city, and she had never learned how to make cornbread.

She became a caretaker because she had debts to pay. She had used all her savings to fund her two sons' weddings and houses.
