"I didn't give birth to Tangya, nor did I raise you, but you are so kind to me and take care of me. I really don't know what to say. This is really my blessing!" Wang Cuilian murmured.

.

Yang Ruoqing smiled and said, "Auntie, I know what you are worried about. You really don't have those miscellaneous thoughts."

"Tangyao has been a kid since he was a child. During every New Year and festival, you would get him food, make him clothes and shoes."

"Your life is tight. Although you don't have many things to give him, for him at that time, it was a timely help."

“Sending carbon in the snow is far better than adding icing on the cake.”

"Don't tell me that you are our aunt now. Even if you don't marry my uncle, we will still take care of you because of the kindness you showed to Tang Yazi."

"Besides, you are still our aunt. It is only natural that we take care of you until you die, and wait for your illness at your bedside. You must not have any thoughts of life, otherwise we will feel uncomfortable!"

Yang Ruoqing's words, like a pot of warm wine, a cup of hot tea, and a bowl of thick soup, warmed Wang Cuilian's heart.

It also calmed down the anxiety she felt due to being bedridden.

"Come, aunt, take this medicine first. It is a medicine for resolving phlegm and relieving cough."

Yang Ruoqing came to the bedside with a bowl of brewed medicinal powder and freed up one hand to help Wang Cuilian.

After taking care of Wang Cuilian and drinking the medicine, Yang Ruoqing twisted another piece of handkerchief and wiped Wang Cuilian's face and hands.

"Uncle and Tang Yazi went to burn incense at the Earth Temple in the south. The last fish in the kitchen is about to be cooked. I asked my mother-in-law to take care of it there."

"Auntie, when we have the New Year's Eve dinner later, please see if you can put on some clothes and come down. I will light a charcoal brazier in the main room and stir the fire in the heating bucket to keep it warm. You can sit down and warm it up.

Would you like to have New Year's Eve dinner with us in Tongli?" Yang Ruoqing asked softly.

Eating New Year's Eve dinner is the most important reunion dinner of the year.

When the family gathers together and eats happily, this is happiness.

Although Wang Cuilian is ill at the moment, Yang Ruoqing still has to invite her. If not, she is worried that Wang Cuilian's body will not be able to bear it.

However, rather than her body being unable to bear it, Yang Ruoqing was more worried that her seriously ill aunt would have random thoughts again, thinking that she was being disliked because she was sick, and would isolate her even during the New Year's Eve dinner...

Sure enough, when she heard Yang Ruoqing's invitation, Wang Cuilian's face showed a look of joy.

"Qing'er, I understand your kindness. This year's New Year's Eve dinner should be casual. I don't want to move, I just want to lie down in bed and feel comfortable." Wang Cuilian said.

Yang Ruoqing said: "Auntie, you should sleep for a while. When they come back later, you can decide when dinner is served. There is no rush."

Letting Wang Cuilian sleep first, Yang Ruoqing hurried back to the backyard kitchen.

At this time, the last bowl of braised fish had already been out of the pot, and Tuoba Xian was scalding chopsticks, bowls and spoons with boiling water.

Seeing Yang Ruoqing come in, Tuoba Xian asked: "How is your aunt?"

Yang Ruoqing said: "I've seen it. The blood should be a little bloodshot from the throat after coughing. It has nothing to do with the blood in the internal organs."

Tuoba Xian breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, that's good!"

Mr. Luo Tiejiang and Tang Yazi came back with their two children. The two little guys were very excited. Tuoba Xian took them to wash their hands and prepare for the New Year's Eve dinner. They were still dancing and gesticulating and talking.

There will be firecrackers and fireworks at night...

Here, Yang Ruoqing twisted a handkerchief and handed it to Luo Fengtang, while telling him about Wang Cuilian.

"What I mean is to take aunt to the main room to eat together. What aunt means is that she is tired and doesn't want to move. What do you think we should do?" Yang Ruoqing asked.

Luo Fengtang said: "It's cold at night, and it's a long walk from Auntie's house to the main room. As a sick person, she walks all the way just to have a meal. It's not worth it if she gets cold."

"But if I pack the food and send it to her room, I'm worried that she will eat coldly alone..."

"I have an idea!" Yang Ruoqing snapped her fingers and whispered a few words into Luo Fengtang's ear.

Luo Fengtang's eyes lit up, "This is a good idea, but my Qing'er has more ideas. I'll take care of it right now!"

When the dinner was put on the table, Wang Cuilian found that they had placed it in the room next to hers.

Luo Fengtang also carried the warm bucket over, and Yang Ruoqing spread warm mats in the warm bucket.

"Grandma, happy New Year, let's have New Year's Eve dinner!"

Luo Baobao, who had already put on festive clothes, stood in front of the bed, bowed his hands to Wang Cuilian and wished her New Year greetings. He smiled with bright eyes and white teeth and invited Wang Cuilian to come over for the New Year's Eve dinner.

Yang Ruoqing also came over with a cloak and said softly: "Auntie, the New Year's Eve dinner is placed next door. Everyone is seated and waiting for you."

Wang Cuilian was so moved that she almost burst into tears.

When are people most vulnerable?

When you are sick and unable to do anything about yourself, that helplessness is enough to devour a person.

The warmth at this time made her so happy that she almost cried.

"Okay, okay, I'm here." Wang Cuilian said the word "ok" twice and got out of bed.

She sat next to Blacksmith Luo and had a poor appetite. Facing the delicious and delicious dishes on the table, she only moved her chopsticks symbolically.

The whole time, she was smiling and watching the big family eat. Especially when she saw Baby Luo scooping the rice in the small bowl all over the table with a small wooden spoon, and also on his face, Wang Cuilian couldn't help but smile.

, his eyes are filled with doting and loving kindness.

"My dear granddaughter, eat slowly and don't choke." Wang Cuilian said softly.

Luo Baobao smiled sweetly and continued working.

This year's New Year's Eve dinner was still very warm, and everyone at the dinner table said auspicious words to Wang Cuilian.

Especially Luo Baobao and Dazhi were instructed in advance to say some words of good health to Wang Cuilian.

Wang Cuilian took out the red envelope of New Year's money she had prepared in advance and handed it to the two children, and then gently stroked the heads of the two children, tears suddenly coming down.

"I really want to watch you like this every year and watch you grow up year by year..."

The two children did not understand Wang Cuilian's sadness. After receiving the New Year's money, they ran away happily.

Here, Yang Ruoqing heard Wang Cuilian's words and frowned slightly.

"Aunt, I'll take you back to your house to rest," she said, walking over and helping Wang Cuilian go to the next door.

"Auntie, just focus on recuperating and you will be fine when the weather gets warmer. This cough is nothing." Yang Ruoqing helped Wang Cuilian tuck the corners of the quilt and said again.

Wang Cuilian sighed and said: "Qing'er, I know my own body well. I'm afraid it will be difficult to recover from my illness."

"Auntie, why are you saying unfavorable words again?" Yang Ruoqing asked.

Wang Cuilian said: "It's not that I'm saying anything bad. Originally, I didn't want to say these things on New Year's Eve, but I couldn't help it."

"When I think about this year, it might be the last year I spend with you, I feel so panicked that I want to cry, but I don't dare to cry." Wang Cuilian said solemnly.
Chapter completed!
