Wang Aiguo: "I understand, Sister Buling."
Seeing the two of them like that, Bu Ling sighed inwardly, took out two pieces of candy from her bag and handed them to him: "One for you and one for your brother."
Wang Aiguo glanced timidly at Buling, then picked up the candy. "Thank you, Sister Buling." His tone was somewhat flattered.
Bu Ling didn't say anything and followed the two into the courtyard.
That evening, while Sangshen was cooking, she heard a knock on the door.
Bu Ling stood up from the recliner, opened the door, and said, "Sister-in-law Li." The person who came in was Li Na, Wang Aiguo's biological mother.
Li Na, carrying a basket, smiled at Bu Ling and said, "Bu Ling, Aiguo told me about what happened today. Thank you so much!"
As she spoke, she handed the basket to Buling: "It's nothing good, just a pound of peanut cakes. You and Xiaosang can take them and eat them." She lifted the cloth on the basket, revealing the peanut cakes inside.
Peanut cakes are made from the residue left after peanuts are pressed for oil. In modern times, these are considered waste, but nowadays, they are considered quite good.
Bu Ling didn't refuse. She took the basket, poured out the peanut cakes, and put half a pound of walnuts into the basket: "Sister Li, these were sent by my aunt. They're not worth much. You can take them back for Aiguo and the others to eat."
Sister Li declined several times, but finally accepted it: "Buling, I came here to thank you, how can I accept your gift!"
Buling laughed and said, "What's the big deal? We're neighbors, it's only natural to give and take care of each other!"
Sister-in-law Li: "That's great, then I won't stand on ceremony with you."
Bling: "Don't mention it."
After a few rounds of back and forth, Li Na finally left with the walnuts. Seeing this, Sangshen asked curiously, "What happened?"
Bling explained the whole story to him, and finally sighed, "Adults commit sins, and children suffer."
After hearing this, Sangshen shook her head: "Hopefully, Aunt Lan will learn her lesson this time!"
Bling thought to herself, "Probably so?"
That evening, when Jiang Sheng returned, Sang Shen called him over and told him about Widow Liu's new location. Jiang Sheng was naturally extremely grateful to Sang Shen.
