In the library, Lin Jin devoured every book, leaving no corner untouched. However, despite searching through every single volume, she still couldn't find what she needed. It seemed it would be a long time before she could fully understand the banquet's contents!

Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Lin Jin quickly put down the apple, wiped her mouth, and then left the space. She ran out of the house to open the door!

As soon as the door opened, Li Yanjun was seen standing there, bundled up tightly and carrying a large bag. Seeing Lin Jin running out in just a sweater, she urged, "Xiao Jin, come in quickly! Why aren't you dressed warmly enough? Don't catch a cold!"

Lin Jin tried to take the things from Li Yanjun's hands, but Li Yanjun said: "The things are too heavy, just carry them!"

Upon entering the house, Li Yanjun was shocked by the cold. She said with concern, "Oh dear! Why is this house so cold? Why didn't you light the stove? Is there no coal? Or do you not know how to light it? It's my fault for being so busy lately. I should have come earlier to bring you some coal! You're just a young girl here, and there's no one to take care of you..."

Seeing this, Lin Jin quickly greeted her with a smile, handed her a steaming cup of tea, and said, "Aunt Li, don't worry, I'm really not cold. You see, the places I went to before were much colder than here, and I still made it through."

Li Yanjun took the hot tea, took a small sip, then placed the large bag she was carrying on the table, opened it, and took out the contents one by one as she spoke.

“These two are down jackets, I bought them according to your size, try them on and see if they fit. And these leather shoes, they’re also your size! I know you young girls like to dress up nicely, so I specially picked out these nice pairs,” Li Yanjun said gently.

Then, she took out some snacks from the bag and continued, "I know you girls like to eat snacks, so I bought some for you so you can have a snack when you want."

Looking at the pile of things on the table, Lin Jin felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She said gratefully, "Aunt Li, you're so kind to me. How much are these things? I'll give them to you!"

Upon hearing this, Li Yanjun's expression immediately changed, and she said, "Are you disgusted by what I bought, or do you no longer recognize me as your aunt?!"

Lin Jin quickly said, "I don't mind, I really like all these things, but they're too expensive. This down jacket alone must cost several hundred! How can I accept such valuable items!"

Li Yanjun quickly said, "It's not expensive at all! In this freezing weather, you've been running back and forth every day to treat my father's illness. What are these things compared to that? Besides, you need to keep the stove burning in your house, otherwise you'll definitely freeze in this cold weather. How about this, I'll have someone bring you some coal tomorrow, please don't refuse! I truly like you, I've liked you from the first moment I saw you. I don't have a daughter myself, so whenever I see things that young girls like, I can't help but want to buy them. Now I finally have someone like you who I can buy things for, I'm so happy! I wanted to take you shopping several times before, but you didn't want to, so I had no choice but to buy it for you and bring it over myself!"

"Well, thank you, Aunt Li!" Having no other choice, Lin Jin accepted it.

Li Yanjun gave a few more instructions and then left. Before leaving, she reminded him to have someone deliver coal for her tomorrow and to wait at home. Lin Jin agreed.
