If he didn't go with them, life seemed meaningless on his own; but if he did go, he worried that no one would treat his cow well after he left…
Now, He Cuifen's health is getting better day by day.
All these changes probably originated from Zhu Qinghao delivering things to the cowshed and then casually slipping some to them as well.
Sometimes it's nutritional supplements, like malted milk powder or milk powder, but more often it's the food Zhu Qinghao cooks, and occasionally it's things she grows in her space.
He Cuifen always feels especially comfortable when she eats these things, and she feels much better after eating them.
When she first faced this change, she didn't even dare to tell Old Man Ma, for fear that it was a final burst of energy before death.
Later, she could clearly feel that her body was getting better and better, and Old Man Ma also noticed the changes in her body and couldn't help but ask.
Only then was it confirmed that He Cuifen's health had improved.
After feeling much better, He Cuifen kept saying she wanted to see Zhu Qinghao, and today he finally got the chance.
Actually, she had prepared something, a treasured possession that she had kept for a long time. She originally intended to save it for the end, to give it to whoever was responsible for collecting the bodies of the elderly couple.
But now she's changed her mind. She's going to give it to Zhu Qinghao. After all, she's hiding it anyway, and he saved her life.
Indeed, in He Cuifen's eyes, Zhu Qinghao was like her savior. She couldn't explain why, but she just had this intuition.
She had carefully wrapped the item in a clean cloth and put it in her pocket, but in the end, she didn't give it away.
She had a feeling that the time wasn't right, and that if she gave it to Zhu Qinghao now, he would most likely not accept it.
So after thinking it over and over, she still didn't take the thing out, but just glanced at Zhu Qinghao from afar.
It's okay, there's plenty of time, and there will be many more opportunities in the future.
Thinking this way, she convinced herself, but still hid the thing in a very convenient place, ready to give it away at any time.
Old Man Ma saw her movements clearly, but he didn't say anything, just watched her with a smile.
He has no attachment to these things; he only hopes that he and his wife can stay healthy and spend more years with each other.
Moreover, he knew clearly that He Cuifen shared the same wish as him in this regard.
Therefore, He Cuifen can give these material possessions to whomever she wants, since neither of them has any descendants anyway, as long as she is happy.
Besides, he really liked that young girl from the Zhu family. She even prepared quilts and cotton clothes for the old couple. Even their own younger generation might not be so thoughtful.
Let alone He Cuifen, if he had any treasures, he would be willing to give them to her, or save them for her wedding.
The elderly couple chatted like this until after dinner, and even while lying on the kang (a heated brick bed), they continued their conversation, almost always revolving around the Zhu family and Zhu Qinghao.
As they talked, the elderly couple were still discussing what they could save for Zhu Qing, and what kind of mountain products they should go to the mountains to collect for her next year...
They both eventually succumbed to sleepiness and fell into a deep sleep.
Zhu Qinghao knew nothing of what was happening here; all she knew was that she had seen uninvited guests again at the courtyard gate.
