After dinner, before it got completely dark, Yang Baiyi took out two sets of thick bedding from his room and spread them in the two east wing rooms.
After making the bed, Yang Baiyi brought firewood to heat the kang.
Xiao Fuxing hurried over and refused to let Yang Baiyi heat the kang no matter what.
He really couldn't help much with cooking dinner, but lighting a fire was not a problem for him.
"Okay, I won't argue with you, then you can burn it yourself."
Yang Baiyi dusted off his hands and made way for Xiao Fuxing.
"Wanru, what do your parents do? Do you have any brothers or sisters?"
As soon as I arrived at the main hall, I heard grandma pulling Lin Wanru and asking about her family situation.
"Grandma, are you checking the household registration here?"
Yang Baiyi smiled and helped Lin Wanru out of the predicament.
"Grandma, let Bai Yi talk to you. I'll go to the kitchen and boil some hot water so you can soak your feet and sleep comfortably at night."
Lin Wanru, with blushing cheeks, ran to the kitchen to boil water.
Although she felt a little embarrassed, Lin Wanru did not feel unhappy at all. This was the case with the elderly of this age.
After chatting with grandma and grandpa for a while, Lin Wanru boiled the water and Xiao Fuxing heated up the two kangs.
"Grandma and grandpa, please wash up and go to bed early."
The old couple has experienced too many emotional ups and downs today, and resting early can help them relax.
"Xiaoxiao, how about sleeping with grandma at night? Grandma will tell you a story."
Following Yang Baiyi to the east wing, Mu Xue still held Yang Xiaoxiao's little hand, unwilling to let go for a moment.
The little girl looked at her grandmother, then at Lin Wanru, not knowing what to choose and was in a dilemma.
"Xiaoxiao, you sleep with grandma today. It's a good opportunity for you, your sister, to relax a little."
Yang Baiyi understood her grandmother's current situation very well. She treated her granddaughter as her own daughter.
I want to be closer to my granddaughter to make up for the regret and guilt in my heart.
"Oh well."
Yang Xiaoxiao agreed obediently.
Children are the most sensitive. Although the little girl had just met her grandma, she could clearly feel her grandma's love.
"Grandpa, please come back later. I've prepared some clothes for you."
There are all kinds of clothes in the space, so it is easy to find a few simple sets of clothes.
Yang Baiyi returned to his room and pretended to rummage through the closet.
Soon, Yang Baiyi returned to the east wing with several sets of clothes.
"Grandma and Grandpa, these are the clothes I prepared for you, including underwear and outerwear. Don't forget to change into them tomorrow morning.
Uncle, this is for you. We are about the same height, but you lost weight earlier than me. I will definitely make up for it this winter."
Yang Baiyi opened the big bag, and the things inside scared everyone.
There were three brand new military coats and six sets of autumn clothes and autumn trousers.
It is called an autumn coat, but it is much thicker than an autumn coat. It is lined with a layer of fleece, which feels soft and warm.
"Bai Yi, keep it for yourself. I have clothes to wear."
Xiao Fuxing on the side quickly refused.
"Uncle, please don't be polite with me. As long as I can take it out, it means I have it. If I don't have it, I won't take it out even if you put a knife to my neck.
Well, it’s getting late, let’s all go to bed early.”
In order to avoid being pushed and shoved, Yang Baiyi dropped his clothes and ran away.
"Dad, look at this..."
Xiao Fuxing said in embarrassment.
When on the farm, Xiao Qingyang often taught Xiao Fuxing that the current difficulties were only temporary, and all difficulties were a test for himself, and he should not lose hope for the future.
No matter how difficult it is, we must behave uprightly, not take advantage of others, and not lose our integrity.
"Take it. He is your nephew, not a stranger. You have suffered a lot following us over the years."
Xiao Qingyang looked at his thinly dressed son, and there was a hint of guilt in his tone.
My wife and I still have a padded jacket. Although we have worn it for many years and it is no longer warm, it is still a cotton coat. My youngest son doesn't even have a cotton coat.
Every winter, my youngest son would force himself to put on all the clothes he could wear.
"Dad, I'm not miserable at all because I can be with you."
"Okay! Go to your room and sleep."
There are three east wing rooms in total, the old couple lives in one and Xiao Fuxing lives in one.
"Old Xiao, am I dreaming? I was living in a dark and damp shack this morning, and now I'm living in such a nice house this evening.
Although you always say that the current difficulties are only temporary, after enduring year after year, there is still no sign of hope.
We don't have many years left to live, and the only things we can't let go of are Fuxing and our lost daughter.
It is God’s mercy that we met our eldest grandson here.
From now on, Fuxing and my eldest grandson will be able to take care of each other, and I will be relieved when I die."
Feeling the warm room, the burning kang, and touching the thick bedding, Muxue felt like she was in a dream.
"Grandma, I won't let you die."
Yang Xiaoxiao hugged Muxue's waist, put her little face in Muxue's arms, and her little body trembled slightly.
"What nonsense are you talking about, you scared your precious granddaughter."
Xiao Qingyang glared at his wife.
"My precious granddaughter, grandma is talking nonsense. I will not die. I will stay with my precious granddaughter."
Mu Xue wanted to slap herself in the face. The one who suffered the most from her daughter's early death was the poor little girl in her arms.
"My dear granddaughter, let's go to bed."
