Seeing that there was no other way, Luo Qiao suggested that they just take charge of the house and pay for all the food, clothing and other expenses. The old couple reluctantly agreed. They have now adapted to the life here and made a few old friends. When they have nothing to do, they sit outside and chat.
Luo Qiao got off the bike: "Wouldn't you like to come in and sit for a while?"
Lu Yichen pushed the car into the yard: "It's getting late, I'll say hello to Uncle Rong and Aunt Rong before leaving."
When Aunt Rong heard the noise, she knew it was Luo Qiao who had returned: "Qiaoqiao is back."
Luo Qiao heard the question and said, "Well, I'm back, Auntie. I'm hungry."
Aunt Rong smiled and said, "The delivery boy brought a big goose today. It's just right for making taro stewed goose. Yichen, you should stay and have some."
Luo Qiao turned around and looked at Lu Yichen: "If you have nothing to do, just accompany me to eat before leaving."
Seeing Luo Qiao's expression, Lu Yichen couldn't bear to say no: "Okay, it just so happens that I haven't tasted Auntie's cooking these days."
Luo Qiao was delighted when she heard this: "Auntie is really good at cooking."
As he said this, he followed her into the kitchen: braised goose with taro, mixed cold dishes, homemade tofu, stir-fried beans, eggplant with minced meat, rice as the staple food, and tomato and egg soup.
When Luo Qiao saw the amount of food in the kitchen, she knew that the old couple were waiting for her to come back and eat together.
Luo Qiao said, "Auntie, it will be late in the future, so you don't have to wait for me specially."
Aunt Rong said, "I knew you would be home late today, so I cooked late too. The food won't taste good if it's heated up."
Luo Qiao looked up at Aunt Rong: "Auntie, where is Uncle Rong?"
Aunt Rong smiled and said, "The great-grandson Diandian from the old Sun family next door came back today. He was playing in our yard before and was greedy for the food I cooked. He cried and was taken away by old Sun. I asked your uncle to bring some food to him in a small bowl."
Luo Qiao asked with a smile: "Is the little one back?"
Aunt Rong smiled and nodded: "As soon as the child came back, she ran to our yard. I think she came to find you. It's your fault for loving to tease her so much."
As they were talking, Uncle Rong came back, and Lu Yichen hurriedly greeted him, "Uncle Rong, wash your hands and eat."
When Grandpa Rong saw Luo Qiao coming back, he said cheerfully, "The great-grandson of the Sun family is really attached to you. When I went over, he was almost in a daze, but when he heard me talking, he opened his eyes and asked if Aunt Qiaoqiao was back."
Luo Qiao smiled and said, "That little one is quite adorable. He probably missed my delicious food."
Everyone laughed.
After Luo Qiao ate the dish, she gave Aunt Rong a thumbs up and took another piece of taro to finish. "The goose meat is well-seasoned, soft and tender. The taro is powdery, sweet and soft. The combination of these two makes the taste really rich and tempting."
Aunt Rong smiled and said, "If you like it, eat more. I'll change it up for you next time when I send a goose over."
Luo Qiao smiled and said, "Then I am in for a treat."
After finishing the meal and cleaning up, Lu Yichen was about to leave when the phone in the living room rang. Luo Qiao took a few quick steps and answered it: "Hello, who is this?"
"Qiaoqiao, I'm your grandma."
"Grandma, why are you calling so late?"
"Qiaoqiao, hurry up and pack your things. I'll ask my second brother to pick you up later. Something happened to your sister Jialin."
"Grandma, what happened to Sister Jialin?"
"I'm not sure about the details yet. Your eldest aunt called to look for you just now. She thought you would come back here tonight. Now your sister Jialin is in the Textile Hospital. It's too late, and grandma is a little worried, so she asked your second brother to pick you up."
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
"Grandma, that's okay. Lu Yichen is here and is about to leave. I'll just ask him to take me there. We'll meet at the hospital."
"Okay, okay, okay, I'm relieved that Yichen is here, let's meet up at the hospital."
After hanging up the phone, Luo Qiao took her crossbody bag and left the yard: "Uncle Rong, Aunt Rong, you should go to bed early. Something happened to my cousin. She is in the hospital now. I have to go over to see her."
Turning to look at Lu Yichen: "Take me to the Textile Hospital."
The two hurried out the door, and Aunt Rong said from behind: "Be careful."
When they got on the main road, Lu Yichen asked, "What happened?"
Luo Qiao said: "We will know when we get there. Grandma answered the call from my aunt, and I guess my aunt doesn't know the details either."
