"You're too kind, don't be so polite, you even brought so much stuff!"
"I don't need anything, you should take this back and use it to nourish your grandson!"
"Besides, since Xiaoxue saw it, she'll definitely give you a heads-up."
"We're all from the same village, we see each other all the time, shouldn't we lend a hand to each other if someone's in trouble?"
Lin Cuihua really wanted to decline the old lady's offer, but this old lady was just like Uncle Ge from noon.
"I've left the things here. Your Xiaoxue saved my grandson's life, we can't leave without showing our gratitude!"
"If you need anything in the future, just let me know. Our family may not have much else, but we have plenty of labor!"
"My daughter-in-law has already prepared dinner, so I have to go back first. We can get together again another time!"
The old woman spoke as she walked quickly outside.
Lin Cuihua chased after him with her things but couldn't catch up.
"Here you go. I don't know what good luck you had, everyone's bringing you food!"
Lin Cuihua carried the things to Lin Xue's room, and then scooped the cooked dumplings into a plate.
Because of that interruption, the dumplings were overcooked.
However, because it didn't last long, the skin didn't break.
"What can we do? If we see it, can we just stay silent?"
"If that old lady were allowed to carry her grandson to the hospital, the little boy would probably go into shock halfway there!"
Lin Xuemei ate her dumplings with relish, but her face showed a helpless expression.
"You're just too soft-hearted. Where did that unwavering spirit you used to have, the kind that wouldn't budge even if the sky were to fall?"
"Remember to call me if you need anything in the future, don't try to be a hero and do it all by yourself!"
"It's good that the other child is okay this time, but if it's delayed in getting them to the hospital, they'll blame you!"
Lin Cuihua was very happy, as her daughter was kind, but she was also a little worried for her.
She knew that some kindness came at a price. Although the villagers seemed nice, wasn't that because no one was involved in any conflict of interest?
If one day you do something good but end up doing something wrong, not only will others not be grateful, but they will also resent you.
It wasn't easy for the two of them, a widow and her child, to maintain this family business. They tried their best not to do anything out of the ordinary.
The meal finally came to an end amidst Lin Cuihua's incessant chatter.
After finishing her meal, Lin Xue sat down on the kang (a heated brick bed) and waited for her mother to finish cleaning up the dishes and bring in a basin of water for washing her feet.
She came downstairs, washed her feet in hot water, watched TV with Lin Cuihua for a while, and then went to bed.
Early the next morning.
I was woken up again by the crowing of the roosters in the village.
When Lin Xue got up, Lin Cuihua had already finished feeding the chickens.
"Mom, let's go for a walk in the streets today!"
"Push the bicycle upstairs and get it fixed, so you can ride it more easily when you're working!"
Lin Xue had wanted to go for a stroll in the streets for a while, but her health wouldn't allow it. She felt a bit better today than yesterday, so she decided to go out.
"You're just starting to feel better, what are you showing off for?"
"Let's rest for a few more days. If you haven't had a relapse in a few days, then I'll take you for a walk in the street!"
Lin Xue was surprised that Comrade Lin Cuihua refused so decisively.
They didn't give us any room to maneuver.
Since I'm physically weak, I have no choice but to obey.
After finishing her meal, Lin Cuihua pushed her bicycle to the street to get it repaired.
My daughter wants to go out on the street, but she'll definitely get tired if she walks.
We should hurry up and fix the bicycle at home. That way, she won't be so tired when she rides it with her daughter.
Lin Xue watched TV for a while, but found it boring, so she moved a small stool and sat down at the front door.
Villagers passing by her house would stop and chat with her, which helped her learn about the village and prevent her from feeling bored at home.
"Auntie, do you mean that Aunt Wang's kittens are ready to be born?"
Are you planning to take one home and raise it?
Lin Xue brought a stool for the old lady. Lin Cuihua wasn't there, so she didn't know how to address her.
Anyway, older women are called "auntie", slightly younger women are called "auntie", and women around the same age are called "sister".
Lin Xue has a mouth; she can chat with anyone she wants.
"Her cat, Da Hua, gave birth to five kittens this time, all of them tabby cats, and they are all very beautiful!"
"My granddaughter pre-ordered one a long time ago, the one that's all pear-colored with no stray hairs!"
The old lady wasn't particularly attached to whether or not to keep a cat, but her granddaughter liked them, and she couldn't refuse her child, so as soon as the cat was ready to be sold, she rushed to bring the kitten over.
If her granddaughter's favorite cat is taken away by someone else, her granddaughter will probably throw a tantrum again.
Since we've decided to get a cat, we'll definitely choose one that our granddaughter likes.
"Grandma, you're so good to your granddaughter!"
"I wonder if Aunt Wang has any extra kittens. I get quite bored being home alone all the time!"
In fact, Lin Xue also likes kittens, which is why 629 always chooses cats when transforming into animal form.
Aside from the fact that there's no other way to survive in the ocean, dogs are much easier to keep alive than cats.
Now, when she thinks of cats, she thinks of her own system.
I suddenly felt a little lost.
"Why don't you come with me to take a look? I haven't heard of anyone wanting any other cats in the past couple of days!"
"Your old cat at Aunt Wang's house has been having kittens quite frequently, so she's probably worried about where to send them!"
In the end, Lin Xue closed the gate and followed the old woman to Aunt Wang's house.
"Oh, Aunt Hua, you've come to hold the kitten, haven't you?"
"Hey, who's that in the back?"
"Let me see, whose little girl is this, so beautiful!"
As soon as Aunt Wang saw Lin Xue, she happily came up to her, grabbed her hand, and looked her up and down.
