Tang Xiaorou was shocked when she heard what Old Lady Cao said, and she quickly stepped forward and said, "Grandma Cao, let me take your pulse."
Old Mrs. Cao had already heard Old Mrs. Yao talk about Tang Xiaorou's abilities, so she smiled and nodded.
Seeing that Mrs. Cao was pleased, Tang Xiaorou stepped forward and felt her pulse. She immediately realized that what the old lady said was true. She had aged naturally as she got older. However, Mrs. Cao's condition was better than Mrs. Yao's. "Grandma Cao, I'll make you a few bottles of pills when I get back. You can take one pill every day. It will have some effect after all."
Old Madam Cao had suffered from health problems like Old Madam Yao, so even though there was a big age gap between the two, Old Madam Cao was still in better health.
Hearing this, Mrs. Cao smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll trouble Xiaorou."
When Tang Xiaorou returned, she saw her mother talking to Old Lady Yao. When the two saw her come back, they asked, "Xiaorou, has Auntie also been notified?"
"Yes, Grandma Cao already knows about it. However...she is old too. I plan to make two bottles of health pills for her in the next two days."
Old Madam Yao nodded and said, "Alright, although she is much older than me, she is stronger than me. If she can be treated, it's better to treat her." At the end, she turned to look at Qin Xueqiong and continued the previous topic, "Xueqiong, remember what I said just now, even if you find your biological parents now and marry Yue Yuan, you still have to stand up on your own."
Seeing that Old Lady Yao still considered her, Qin Xueqiong's eyes immediately became red.
"Aunt, I remember. I know that a woman needs to be capable in order to gain more attention and respect. Besides, I have also thought about what I want to do in the future." If they had wanted their daughter to be capable, the mother and daughter didn't know what would happen. So she really had to stand on her own.
Hearing this, Mrs. Yao's face was full of curiosity.
"What are you going to do? Are you going to make clothes like before?"
Qin Xueqiong nodded and said, "I've made up my mind. I'll make my own clothes in the future."
"good."
Old Lady Yao laughed and said, "You are really good at making clothes. You can do this business." As she spoke, she looked at Tang Xiaorou and said, "Xiaorou, I will trouble you to take care of Bingcheng from now on."
Before Tang Xiaorou could speak, Yao Bingcheng, who had just entered the room, said, "Grandma, I will take good care of myself." At the end, he tried to force a smile, took out the roast duck he had bought and said, "Grandma, I bought roast duck. You just said you wanted to eat it. Let's eat it now."
"good."
Old Mrs. Yao saw her grandson coming back and waved to him with a smile.
"Our Bingcheng has really grown up."
After Yao Bingcheng served the roast duck, the few of them sat together and ate slowly.
"It's delicious. When I was young and came to Beijing, the roast duck I ate tasted like this."
"Grandma, I'll give you another one." Upon hearing this, Yao Bingcheng quickly gave Old Lady Yao another one, "Grandma, you eat it."
"good."
After Mrs. Yao took it, she began to stutter.
"Grandma, eat slowly. I'll give you another one."
Old Madam Yao waved her hand and said, "No need to worry. I'm full. You guys should eat quickly too."
After eating a roast duck for a few days, Mrs. Yao said she was sleepy and wanted to lie down for a while.
"Grandma, let me help you in."
Yao Bingcheng carefully helped Old Lady Yao into the room and settled her down, then quietly left.
"Bingcheng, is your grandma asleep?"
Yao Bingcheng nodded and said, "Grandma fell asleep. She fell asleep as soon as she touched the pillow."
Qin Xueqiong glanced at the door with some concern when she heard this, then looked at her daughter and said, "Xiao Rou, I talked to my aunt for a long time this morning. She was in a very good mood. I'm afraid..."
Tang Xiaorou understood what her mother meant and was afraid that Old Lady Yao would have a last burst of energy.
Yao Bingcheng, who was standing by, also understood what was said. His eyes turned red and he rushed into Old Lady Yao's room without thinking.
Qin Xueqiong and Tang Xiaorou did not stop him, but followed him in.
"grandmother……"
Yao Bingcheng looked at Old Lady Yao on the bed nervously. Seeing that the old lady did not move, he hurried forward and pushed her, but Old Lady Yao still did not move.
Upon seeing this, Tang Xiaorou immediately stepped forward and touched Old Lady Yao's neck. Then her tears started to flow. "Grandma Yao... passed away."
Hearing the news, Qin Xueqiong couldn't help sobbing, and Yao Bingcheng collapsed to the ground, tears streaming down his face, "Grandma... Grandma..."
But Mrs. Yao had a peaceful expression, with a slight smile on her lips, and she closed her eyes quietly forever.
Tang Xiaorou also started crying, but now she didn't want to cry because there were still many things waiting for them to do. "Bingcheng, please accept my condolences. Look at the old lady. She still has a smile on her face. It can be seen that she has no regrets and passed away with ease. So you don't have to cry."
Having said that, Tang Xiaorou's eyes were still red and tears kept falling.
Qin Xueqiong on the side needless to say, after the divorce, Old Lady Yao had been with them. When her daughter was busy, she would always stay with the old lady. The old lady taught her a lot of things, but now even the old lady has left.
Seeing her mother and Yao Bingcheng recovering from their sorrowful looks, Tang Xiaorou forced herself to cheer up and started to get busy.
Soon, all relatives and friends knew about the death of Old Lady Yao. Even Yue Yuan and Shen Huaixu received the news and decided to come back.
"A Yuan, you are here."
When Qin Xueqiong saw Yue Yuan rushing back, she couldn't help but her eyes became red again.
Yue Yuan hurried forward and comforted her softly, "Xue Qiong, don't be sad. Auntie is indeed young, and she passed away peacefully. She would definitely want to see you sad."
"Yeah, I know, she definitely wants to see me cry, too."
Qin Xueqiong rubbed her eyes as she spoke, "By the way, where is Huai Xu? Did he come back with you?"
"Yes, he came back with me, and is now busy outside with Xiaorou."
On the other side, Shen Huaixu looked at Tang Xiaorou's thin face and felt a little pained, "Xiaorou, you haven't had a good rest these days. I want you to go and rest for a while. I'll watch over here."
Tang Xiaorou shook her head. "I'm fine. I haven't had a rest for the past few days. That kid...ah..."
Hearing this, Shen Huaixu also sighed, then went in to pay respect to Old Lady Yao, and then advised Yao Bingcheng to take a rest, "Bingcheng, we are here, you go take a nap first."
At this time, Yue Yuan also came over and gave some advice.
However, Yao Bingcheng didn't listen at all and just knelt there quietly.
Seeing this, the two of them stopped trying to persuade him.
Afterwards, Mrs. Cao's family, as well as the Yue family, the Huo family, and the Shen family all came to pay their respects. On the day of the funeral, Yao Bingcheng and Tang Xiaorou wore mourning clothes and sent Mrs. Yao off for the last time.
