Chapter 11797

Yang Ruoqing put the little cub A back into the box next to her, got up and went to the door.

The weasel mother kept her eyes fixed on Yang Ruoqing's figure, thinking that this human was going to abandon her and her cubs. A look of panic flashed in her eyes again, and her body tensed up once more.

But Yang Ruoqing soon returned, carrying a very large bowl.

"Come on, it's your turn to eat something delicious." Yang Ruoqing placed the large bowl of chicken porridge in front of Huangpizi's mother. The fresh aroma of chicken was immediately captured by Huangpizi's extraordinary sense of smell. Instantly, all the panic, fear, and irritability vanished, replaced by a feeling of joy and...hunger!

To be honest, it hadn't eaten for two days. If it hadn't been starving, it wouldn't have risked coming out to forage for food when people were harvesting chestnuts in the forest, and then bringing the food back to its burrow.

If it's full, it will never venture out during the day where humans are present. It will definitely stay in its burrow with its cubs, and then sneak out to forage at night when there are no humans around.

"Eat up, eat as much as you want, until you're full." Yang Ruoqing's gentle voice broke down the last straw that broke the weasel mother's defenses.

It could no longer resist, struggling to support its body with its front legs, burying its head in the bowl and eating voraciously. This circle of shame was strange; it could stop it from licking its wounds, but it didn't hinder its eating at all.

Yang Ruoqing squatted down beside it, watching as it lowered its guard and ate with relish. It looked so delicious that Yang Ruoqing couldn't help but become interested in the chicken porridge in the bowl and wanted to try it herself.

In the end, she held back, because the other two little ones in the box next to her hadn't been fed yet and were already whimpering inside.

The chicken porridge was so delicious that the weasel mother was so engrossed in eating that she didn't even bother to feed her two hungry babies.

You're quite the foodie! When you have food, you can even temporarily forget about your own child. I'm impressed!

Alright, it's time for me, the foster mother, to come online again!

Yang Ruoqing picked up one of the cubs again and continued to feed it the remaining goat milk. And so, the mother ate, and the cubs ate too. The room was filled with the aroma of chicken and goat milk blended together, and echoed with the sounds of the mother and her cubs enjoying their meal. It was truly wonderful…

Two days have passed in the blink of an eye, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is here.

This Mid-Autumn Festival, because Xiao An has returned, Yang Ruoqing wants to invite her parents and Xiao An to the Luo family home so that both families can celebrate the festival together.

However, Ms. Sun politely declined.

“This month, your grandfather is eating with our third branch of the family. Your father went to town and brought your grandmother back. We will celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival at our own home.”

"Huh? Grandma's back? When did that happen? I didn't hear a sound."

“Your grandma went to the old house as soon as she got back, saying she wanted to tidy up the east room. You know, your grandpa lives alone in the east room, so he's probably quite casual about some things. Your grandma is staying for two days, so she has to clean it up. If she doesn't, she'll complain, hehehe…”

Not only did Mrs. Sun laugh at herself as she spoke, but Yang Ruoqing also laughed along.

Well, the daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law in the family would go to the east room every few days to help the old man clean the house and wash his dirty clothes and shoes.

However, as everyone knows, the old man is very careless and doesn't care about his lifestyle habits at all.

For the past few decades, she had no choice but to adapt to Tan's good lifestyle because she lived with her husband. From Yang Huamei's pregnancy last year until she gave birth, the old lady stayed with her daughter to help take care of the baby. The old man lived alone at home. At first, he was probably not used to it. He was all alone in the east room, and there was no one to talk to at night. When he was thirsty in the middle of the night, no one would pour him a bowl of tea or anything. It was quite lonely.

But as time went on, hey, this old man not only got used to living alone in the east room, but even enjoyed the feeling.

Why?

Dirty clothes and socks can be taken off anywhere, and then thrown around haphazardly. If urine accidentally splashes onto the floor nearby, there's no need to worry about being scolded by Mrs. Tan, nor is there any need to bend down to grab a rag and wipe it up repeatedly...

Even when his daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law come over every few days to help him tidy up the house, he finds it troublesome, complains that it's annoying to have someone wandering around in his room, and he even tries to chase them away.

So as time went on, they all reduced how often they came to the east room, and eventually, the east room became really dirty and messy...

When the news that the old lady was coming back for the Mid-Autumn Festival reached the village, Old Yang panicked and immediately went to call Sun, Liu, Bao Suyun, and Cao Bamei to help tidy up the house.

As it turns out, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and every household here has something to do.

Sun couldn't come, Liu was too lazy to come, and Bao Suyun was extremely busy. Her grandchildren, son, daughter-in-law, granddaughter, grandson, and Mianmian and her son all went back to the fifth branch of the family to celebrate the festival.

Cao Bamei couldn't come either, because she took Xiuhong, Xiaosanzi, and Yongxiao to town to find Yang Yongjin and Xiuxiu. The family was spending the festival in town this year.

Zhao Liuer was at home, but she was carrying a cloud, so even if she were willing to come and help tidy up the east room, Old Yang wouldn't dare to ask her to come.

Ms. Mo was busy because it was a holiday, and her sister and brother-in-law from the county town had come to visit relatives with their three children.

So after all that, Old Yang had no choice but to tidy up the house himself.

As she was tidying up, Madam Tan returned. Upon entering and seeing the state of the east room, she immediately flew into a rage.

The current state of the east room, which infuriated Tan, was already the absolute limit of Old Yang's cleaning skills.

As a result, he was grabbed by the palm of Madam Tan and scolded severely. While scolding, Madam Tan rolled up her sleeves and cleaned the house.

Old Yang initially wanted to come up and help tidy up the house, but was rudely pushed aside by Tan.

"Go away, you're getting in my way. I have to collect it a second time."

"Hehe, old woman, then I'll trouble you to do this."

Old Yang, holding his pipe, sat down on a stool and watched Tan busy herself in the house while smoking.

After Tan's actions, the east room became clean and tidy. Tan also lit a sandalwood incense stick, and the doors and windows were all open to allow for ventilation. The fragrance of the sandalwood made Old Yang feel refreshed, and he felt that the room was very different from before.

"Hehe, the old lady is really something! The moment she came back, the whole east room was transformed! It looks like a place where a person could live!"
