She gave most of the things she brought back yesterday to her mother-in-law, who then distributed them.
Ming Xiangru stepped back and nodded with a smile.
Hearing Ming Xiangru's voice, Bu Ling got off the kang (a heated brick bed) inside the room: "Sister Xiangru?"
"Bling sister?"
"Long time no see, Sister Xiangru."
Ming Xiangru's face lit up with a delighted smile: "It's been a long time."
"Sister Xiangru, here, these are your apples." Wu Yuanyuan came out from next door, holding three round and big red apples in her hand.
Ming Xiangru didn't take it immediately. Instead, she took out a ticket from her pocket first: "This is a milk powder ticket." She showed it to Wu Yuanyuan before handing it over.
After the transaction was completed, Ming Xiangru looked at Buling and asked, "Little sister Buling, are you back to play?"
"Yes, I heard from Sister Yuanyuan that all the neighbors in the courtyard miss me, so I had to come back and see you all." Buling said with a grin, "Sister Xiangru, did you miss me?"
Ming Xiangru suddenly smiled, her beauty captivating: "I've thought about it."
Bling winked at her: "Don't rush, beauty, I'm here now~"
Ming Xiangru also winked at Bu Ling: "Are you still leaving?"
"I'm leaving, I'm leaving." Buling shook his head. "I'll be back this time next year."
“That will take a long time~” Ming Xiangru agreed readily.
"You can't bear to part with me, can you?" Bu Ling said with a lewd expression.
"Yes, I'm reluctant to part with it," Ming Xiangru said seriously.
"Then come with me, I'll take care of you!" Bu Ling reached out and touched Ming Xiangru's face. "A girl as beautiful as you should belong to me."
“Okay.” Ming Xiangru also reached out and put her hand on Bu Ling’s shoulder.
"Let's go~" Bu Ling pulled Ming Xiangru back into the house, and Wu Yuanyuan followed behind, laughing and crying at the same time. They went inside and closed the door.
Then, the three of them started chattering away until Aunt Zhao knocked on the door: "Yuanyuan, I'm back."
Wu Yuanyuan quickly opened the door and took her precious son from Aunt Zhao's arms. "An'an, did you miss your mother?"
Comrade Tie An gave his mother a toothless smile.
Aunt Zhao saw Buling on the kang (heated brick bed): "Little Buling is here too?"
"Oh, Aunt Zhao, what's wrong...?"
"Hi, Sister Lan and I went to the grocery store. It's almost Chinese New Year, and they'll be getting a new batch of goods every now and then. We went to try our luck," Aunt Zhao explained.
Buling didn't hear anything else; her attention was entirely focused on the phrase, "going grocery shopping with Sister Lan."
A smile played on her lips as she asked, seemingly casually, "Is Aunt Lan back?"
"Ah, of course we'll come back together since we went together." Aunt Zhao was puzzled, and then she saw Bu Ling get off the kang (a heated brick bed) and put on her shoes: "Little Bu, what's going on?"
"I'm going to have a chat with Aunt Lan."
