As soon as Yun Jin and the others got off the train, they took a bus back.
After tidying up a bit, I changed into a dark-colored dress and went out.
Mr. He said, "Bring the rice cakes with you too."
Yun Jin nodded, found a white dress for Xiao Niangao to wear, and asked Xiao Doubao to stay at home while the group boarded the bus.
The bus was crowded at this time, with no empty seats, and it was too late to call a taxi.
Once on the bus, Xiao Niangao was quiet and didn't make a fuss. I held onto her pants to keep her from falling.
Yun Jin held onto the handrail with one hand and held her daughter's hand with the other.
Seeing He's parents squeezed to the side, Yun Jin knew that not having a car was inconvenient.
It seems she should buy a car.
There's no point in making so much money if you don't spend it.
If I have to squeeze onto the bus to go out in the future, it will be too inconvenient.
When the bus arrived at its stop, they changed to another bus and rode for three or four stops before finally reaching their destination.
Yun Jin didn't say anything; she just followed He's parents.
Yun Jin instructed Xiao Niangao not to ask or say anything, and to be obedient and do whatever she was told.
Before I even got close, I could hear the sound of sobbing. Not far away was a mourning hall, its black and white colors heavy with grief, making me feel sad.
Yun Jin followed He's parents forward and listened to their greetings. He's mother started crying, and Yun Jin followed with a heavy expression. He's older brother and sister-in-law had already arrived.
When they met at the funeral hall, He Zizhen called out "Mom and Dad".
After taking Xiao Niangao to the ancestral temple, Yun Jin presented the prepared monetary offering.
Yun Jin didn't know how much to give, so He's mother told her to just give ten yuan.
Yun Jin wrapped up ten yuan and wrote down her and He Tingchuan's names.
Little Rice Cake didn't remember; she's still too young.
As long as it's one company, it's fine.
When Mr. He arrived, he sat down with several other people of similar age, his eyes moist, and shook hands with each of them. It was clear that they had a good relationship and deep affection.
Seeing that Mother He was crying uncontrollably, Yun Jin stepped forward to persuade her, "It's okay to cry for a while, but don't hurt yourself. Xiao Niangao will feel sorry for you."
Mrs. He wiped away her tears: "I know, I never thought that the person I was having tea with just a month ago would be gone so soon."
Yun Jin sighed, "Life is unpredictable. Please accept my condolences and move on."
After Mother He had finished crying, the host family came to comfort her. Some people did not recognize Yun Jin, so Mother He introduced her: "This is my youngest daughter-in-law, Chuanzi's wife. Her name is Yun Jin. You can just call her Xiao Yun."
The other person suddenly realized: "Oh, she's Chuanzi's wife! That guy is so lucky to have married such a beautiful wife. How many children does she have?"
“I have a daughter, she’s five years old,” Yun Jin replied with a smile.
"You're five years old, you can have another one." The other person then kindly reminded her, "Hurry up and have another one."
Yun Jin: "......"
Sister, thank you for your kindness, but it's not that I don't want to have children, it's just that my husband had a vasectomy and I can't have any!
Besides, I have no plans to have a second child.
Future policy changes won't affect me at all!
Knowing that the other party meant well, Yun Jin smiled and gave a few perfunctory replies, just enough to save face.
Yun Jin didn't see Xiao Niangao and, feeling uneasy, immediately went to look for her.
After searching for a short while, I saw Xiao Niangao and a few other children gathered together, who looked to be about the same age.
Yun Jin walked over: "What are you playing?"
"Eat stones." Little Rice Cake has plenty of toys, and seeing them playing with stones is fascinating; she wants to play too.
Yun Jin saw what her daughter was thinking and took the initiative to speak up: "Children, how are you playing? Can my daughter join you? She wants to play with you."
Little Rice Cake looked at them with bright eyes and said, "Brother and sister, can you let me play with you? I promise I won't break the rules."
Seeing how cute Xiao Niangao was, and with Yun Jin stepping in, they readily agreed to take Xiao Niangao out to play.
Yun Jin stood guard to prevent her daughter from being taken advantage of.
Who knew that as the children played, they found the stones boring and said they wanted to play hide-and-seek. Little Rice Cake also wanted to play, and after getting Yun Jin's permission, they started looking for a place to hide.
Little Rice Cake searched and searched, and accidentally squeezed open a door. She saw a little boy lying on the ground with blood flowing from his head. She was so frightened that she screamed, "Mommy, Mommy... the little boy is bleeding a lot!"
Yun Jin's expression changed: "Where?"
Little Rice Cake pointed to the house where she had accidentally fallen in.
Yun Jin followed and saw a pool of blood on the ground. She immediately pulled Xiao Niangao away from it, afraid of being scammed. She shouted, "Whose child fell? Take him to the hospital quickly!"
Soon, the scene alerted many people. A woman dressed in hemp clothing came over and saw the child lying on the ground bleeding. She slapped her thigh and cried out for help, "Help! Something terrible has happened! Kang'er has broken his head! Quickly, take him to the hospital! Take him to the hospital!"
Upon inquiry, people who knew the boy named Kang'er crowded around. In the ensuing chaos, they finally managed to get the unconscious child into the car and take him to the hospital.
I hope the child is alright.
Even with her eyes covered, Xiao Nian Gao was still shaken. She asked timidly, "Mommy, is that boy alright?"
Yun Jin comforted him, "It's alright, the doctor will save him."
"I hope the young man is alright." Little Rice Cake shuddered at the thought of the blood on his forehead.
Others were curious as to why there was a child inside.
They quickly found out how Yun Jin discovered it. Yun Jin said that the children were playing hide-and-seek, and she accidentally pushed open the door and found that a child had fallen.
Yun Jin only learned from them that the child was the host family's grandson. Since the old man passed away, the family had been busy with the funeral arrangements and hadn't had time to take care of the seven-year-old child.
