Yang Huazhong jumped off the carriage cleanly and threw the reins to Yang Yongzhi who was waiting aside: "Go to the town by yourself!"

Then, he quickly came to Sun and Tan, and also held Tan's other arm.

"Mom, it's the first day of the new year and we haven't had breakfast yet. You should listen to what my father says first!" the man said.

The first breakfast on the first day of the new year is the first meal of the year.

In the minds of the villagers in Changping Village, the first meal of the year is very important. Eating well and eating well means that they will be able to eat and drink well in the following year.

Before breakfast, Mrs. Tan ran out, which is unlucky.

Old Yangtou obviously thought of going together with Yang Huazhong.

The old man came over and said to Mrs. Tan: "What Hong'er needs most now is medicine, not your past babbling."

"The child is not in good health to begin with. If he is frightened again, his condition will become more serious. You stay at home with me and you are not allowed to go anywhere!" Old Yangtou said.

Mrs. Tan gritted her teeth: "I'm going to go over and tear Mrs. Chen apart!"

Old Yangtou frowned: "On the first day of the Lunar New Year, I don't like your nonsense the most!"

"Third brother, be quick and carry your mother back to the house. Third brother's daughter-in-law, don't waste time here and cook breakfast."

"In the morning, Meier's family will come over to pay New Year's greetings and have lunch!"

After hearing Lao Yangtou's instructions, Yang Huazhong and his wife took action quickly.

After breakfast, Yang Ruoqing came over in the morning.

As soon as I arrived, I heard about Hong'er.

Yang Ruolan also came over, and said to Sun, Tan and Yang Ruoqing: "Last night, Hong'er cried all night in the next door room. At first, the child's voice was quite loud, but later he couldn't cry anymore. Listen,

I couldn't sleep for most of the night, I was so worried."

Mrs. Sun sighed and said: "Diarrhea is the most troublesome thing. Even adults like us can't handle it, let alone such a small child? Alas!"

Tan spat, still gritting his teeth.

"It's all the fault of that stupid woman Chen. There was such a strong wind last night. Everyone is smart enough to leave their children at home. But she was so stupid that she dragged her children out. They must be really cold now! Suffer!"

Yang Ruoqing said: "The most important thing now is not to blame Third Sister-in-law, but to hope that Third Brother can get the medicine back sooner and make Hong'er feel better sooner."

Mrs. Sun nodded, "Qing'er is right. When Hong'er gets better, I really need to give Jin Hong a good warning. He won't be so confused next time."

Mrs. Tan snorted, "This is the first day of the Lunar New Year. For the sake of good luck, I won't settle the score with her. I'll keep this score in mind for now. I'll have to teach her a lesson after the third day of the new year!"

"Oh, grandma, you are pretty good!"

Yang Ruoqing was surprised, then glanced at Sun and Yang Ruolan: "Mom, sister, did you hear that? My grandma actually said something like 'teach a lesson'!"

Sun and Yang Ruolan both pursed their lips, wanting to laugh but not daring to.

Tan said: "Hey, you haven't eaten pork and haven't seen pigs running? Your eldest brother is now a teacher, I heard him say that!"

Yang Ruoqing smiled knowingly.

In the second half of the year, sometimes when the sun was nice and Mrs. Tan was bored in the village, she would call Mrs. Sun and Bao Suyun to help her go to the entrance of the primary school halfway up the hill behind the village to bask in the sun and listen to the sound of reading inside.

"Qing'er, don't just joke around here. It's not convenient for me to go into the village. Your mother has to take care of the lunch meal."

"You and Lan Yatou will run for me and go to the old house to see how Hong'er is doing right now?" Mrs. Tan ordered again.

"Well, even if you don't tell me, I still have this intention." Yang Ruoqing said, and then stood up.

"I'll just go and have a look at the old house by myself. Sister Lan'er, don't go there," she said again.

Yang Ruolan said: "Okay, then I'll stay and help third aunt cook."

Everyone parted ways and took action on their own.

Mrs. Tan was sitting in the fire barrel in the main room, waiting for the arrival of Yang Huamei and his family.

As soon as I walked past the pond, I saw two familiar figures coming towards me under the old maple tree.

One is Aunt Osmanthus, a slender girl walking beside her, holding Aunt Osmanthus's arm...

"Xiaoyu?"

Yang Ruoqing shouted in surprise.

Across the way, Xiao Yu was walking and laughing with Aunt Guihua.

Hearing this cry, Xiaoyu raised his head.

Their eyes met, both of them were excited.

"Xiao Yu? Is it really you? I thought I was dazzled!" Yang Ruoqing said, walking forward quickly.

Xiaoyu also let go of Osmanthus's arm, trotted to Yang Ruoqing, and the two hugged each other intimately.

"Girl, when did you come back? Why don't you go find me?" After hugging her for a while, Yang Ruoqing let go of Xiao Yu and pretended to be angry.

Xiaoyu said with a smile: "I got home at midnight last night. I knew you were all asleep at that time, so I didn't bother you."

"Look, I just had breakfast and I didn't even bother to wipe my mouth before I came to your house. I even brought a gift for my goddaughter!"

Bringing gifts?

Yang Ruoqing followed Xiaoyu's gaze and looked towards Aunt Guihua.

Aunt Osmanthus also came to the two of them with a smile, carrying a bamboo basket covered with red cloth in her hand.

"I got home at midnight last night, and I was asleep at that time. When she came to my bedside, I thought I was dreaming!" Aunt Guihua said with a smile. The corners of the woman's eyes and eyebrows were filled with the joy of reunion after a long separation.

Hearing this, Yang Ruoqing's eyes fell on Xiaoyu again.

"Why didn't you send a message beforehand when you were coming back? I could make arrangements for you! Besides, why did you come back in the middle of the night? Who did you come back with?" she asked.

Xiaoyu laughed and said, "You have so many things to do, so you don't need to be distracted by small things like me coming back."

"Then why did you come back?" Yang Ruoqing asked.

Xiao Yu said: "I came back with a bodyguard. They took the official road to the east and they sent me smoothly to the intersection of the road leading to Changping Village."

Aunt Guihua looked at Xiaoyu happily from the side and said: "My Xiaoyu is really promising now, and she even knows how to find an escort to follow her back."

Xiao Yu smiled, hugged Aunt Guihua's arm again and acted coquettishly.

"Qing'er, where are you going?" Xiaoyu asked.

Yang Ruoqing said: "Oh, my third brother's child has caught a cold. I'm worried about it and sent me to see what's going on with the child."

Xiaoyu nodded: "Then you go quickly."

Yang Ruoqing said: "Well, I'll go and come back. Xiaoyu, aunt, you go to my house first, my mother is at home."

"Okay, okay, Qing'er, go about your business first." Aunt Guihua said with a smile.

Xiao Yu said: "Qing'er, come back early after you finish reading. I have a lot to say to you!"

Yang Ruoqing nodded: "Yes, I understand. I'll go and come back as soon as possible."
