Chapter 1649: Chapter 1649: Revisiting Old Places (Part 2)

Yang Jiancheng laughed, "These things were prepared by Qiaoqiao, just take them, it’s a small gesture."

The items were distributed by the staff at the station, not something valuable, but practical things needed for the New Year.

After that, the master and mistress stayed at the station chatting with people, while Elder Rong and Rong Daniang wandered around the farm.

Luo Qiao’s family had prepared some offerings in advance and went to Grandma Luo’s grave, arranged the offerings, lit incense, and Luo Qiao finally spoke, "Grandma, I brought my husband and children to see you."

After letting the children pay their respects, she asked Lu Yichen to take them around.

After they left, Luo Qiao chatted with Grandma Luo for a long time before saying, "Grandma, I’m leaving now, I’ll come back to see you when I have time."

When they returned, the master was checking on Wu Laoliu’s grandson, but he kept frowning.

Wu Laoliu’s son and daughter-in-law work in the city, short of hands during the New Year period, the salary is higher than usual, so the couple didn’t come back this year.

Wu Laoliu said, "This child has been a bit listless for days, recently has no appetite, often complains of stomachache, I took him to the village barefoot doctor, who said he might have worms, he took deworming medicine but hasn’t improved.

Moreover, yesterday red lumps appeared on his body, that’s why I got anxious, thinking of asking his parents to come back and take him to a hospital in the city."

Yang Jiancheng finished his examination, "The diagnosis by the barefoot doctor is correct; he does have roundworm disease, and if the medicine hasn’t worked, it might be due to insufficient dosage or expired medication."

Wu Laoliu said, "As long as it’s not another illness, I’ll go again."

Wu Laoliu came by tricycle, settled the child on the vehicle, thanked Yang Jiancheng, then prepared to leave.

Luo Qiao thought about the remaining items under the car, took some down, "Take these back, add some dishes, and when getting medicine, check if it’s expired before giving it to the child."

Wu Laoliu didn’t expect to receive so many nice things this trip, he was at a loss for words, clasped his hands repeatedly saying, "Thank you."

After Wu Laoliu left, Director Tiong finally spoke, "The medicine from the barefoot doctor might have expired, similar incidents happened before."

Such things are unavoidable in the village sometimes; maybe after expiration, few people use the medicine, stored too long, and neglected shelf life.

Next, Luo Qiao and the others accompanied the master and mistress to look at their old residence, only to find it had collapsed after being uninhabited for a long time.

Upon seeing the house where Old Master Yuan lived, Yang Jiancheng suddenly fell silent.

Luo Qiao knew they were surely reminded of Grandpa Yuan; back then, a single meat dish brought joy for days, and Grandpa’s hearty laughter often echoed in the courtyard, as if his laughter still lingered here but the person couldn’t be seen again.

Luo Qiao, fearing the master couldn’t bear it, took them away from there, wandered other places on the farm, encountering many people greeting them along the way.

Twenty years had passed, and many people were unrecognizable, but mentioning whose children they were, everything matched, recalling one or two childhood anecdotes, laughter arose from time to time.

Until it darkened, it was time to leave; previously, Luo Qiao had the remaining items on the car unloaded, and Director Tiong mentioned the farm staff had an annual gathering on the fifth, these items would be used, and he’d mention it to everyone.
