    ?

    Song Yunqing was called by her mother-in-law to be scolded, to the effect that she blamed her for being brainless. What good would it do Yang Fan to make trouble with his daughter-in-law at a time like this?  I really want to push her into a hurry, regardless of your son, who will pay for the high monthly medical expenses?

    In order for his son to survive, Song Yunqing decided to swallow his anger and apologize to his daughter-in-law.

    When I arrived at my son's house, I realized that Yan Xi had lived in the store and never came back since he had a trouble last time.  Seeing that Yang Fan lives alone at home, the whole family has no fireworks at all, he feels sorry for his son and complains that Yan Xi is ignorant, even if he is wrong, how can he get angry with a patient?

    Walking into the kitchen, the bowls and chopsticks were not washed, and a thick layer of medicine scale had accumulated on the outside of the medicine jar used to cook Chinese medicine.

    She couldn't stand it anymore, took the apron, and started to help her son clean up the kitchen.  While tidying up, she started nagging again: "What's the matter with Yanxi, she can really do it by leaving you at home alone. What if something happens?"

    Yang Fan looked at his mother in surprise, not sure if she was suffering from amnesia, why did he fall into this state today, is it because of her blessing?  At this moment, it seems that I have completely forgotten what I said and did at the door of the house a few days ago.

    He walked to the door of the kitchen and said to Song Yunqing: "Mom, I will clean up by myself. There is nothing else, you can go back first."

    Driving her away again, Song Yunqing felt extremely uncomfortable, the kindness of nurturing for so many years was not worth the love of husband and wife for several years after all.  It's fine if there is really a relationship between husband and wife, but that daughter didn't take him seriously.

    "Know how to clean up, how can the house be like this?" She glanced at her son, "If I don't come, no one will know if you die in the house."

    Yang Fan had no intention of arguing with her, let her clean up in the living room and kitchen outside, and went back to the room by himself.

    Not long after, he heard that Song Yunqing outside seemed to be calling someone, he opened the door, and wanted to hear who she was calling at the door.  Hearing the word "Yanxi", her whole heart immediately jumped to her throat, wondering what she was going to do again.  He came out, trying to stop her from making this call, but he heard Song Yunqing holding the phone and saying, "Are you coming back tonight? I made dinner to celebrate Xile's birthday."

    By the way, today is Joy's birthday.  He looked at his mother gratefully, while holding his breath, wondering about Yan Xi's answer.  Based on his understanding of Yan Xi, Song Yunqing even gave in, she would not be unreasonable and would not let others go down the steps, not to mention that today is Xi Le's birthday, she will definitely come back.  Sure enough, the phone said: "After Xi Le is out of school, I will pick her up and go back with her."

    "Okay, then Yang Fan and I will wait for you at home."

    Yang Fan breathed a sigh of relief.

    Song Yunqing glanced at his son, sighed and said, "Only a mother can endure any grievances for her son."

    After Yan Xi picked up Xi Le from school, she went directly to the cake shop.

    Xi Le took out the piggy bank from her schoolbag, put it on the counter, and pointed to the cake she had been looking forward to for a long time: "Auntie, I want this cake."

    She poured out the coins inside and looked at the salesperson with a smile.

    Yan Xi helped explain from the side: "She likes your cake very much, and has saved money for a long time."

    Seeing that the mother and daughter were so pleasing to the eye, the salesperson felt soft in his heart, counted the money needed, and returned the extra few coins: "This much is enough."

    "Thank you, Auntie."

    "You're welcome!"

    After taking the cake, Xile happily distributed her cake along the way: "Mom, can I keep the cherry on the cake for myself?"

    "certainly."

    "I'll give my dad strawberries to eat."

    "OK."

    "Mom eats apples."

    "Thank you. Where's grandma?"

    Xi Le said: "I don't want to give it to grandma."

    "Why? Grandma is cooking dinner for Xile at home now. If Xile doesn't give grandma a cake, she will be very sad."

    "But grandma doesn't like me, and she often scolds my mother. I don't like grandma at all."

    Yan Xi stopped, squatted down, and held Xi Le's shoulder: "Xi Le, let's not be angry with grandma, okay?"

    "Why? Because she is grandma?"

    Yan Xi shook her head: "I don't think grandma wants to be like this either. It's just that grandpa died very early, and she worked hard to bring up dad alone, but he fell ill again. She was anxious and didn't know what to do.  Okay, that's why I lose my temper sometimes."

    Xi Le nodded sensibly: "Okay then."

      Yan Xi kissed his daughter on the cheek: "Xi Le is so good!"

    When I got home, Xi Le said to Song Yunqing excitedly: "Grandma, I bought a cake with a lot of fruits on it. There are dragon fruit, strawberries, apples, and cherries. May I eat dragon fruit for you?"

    Yang Fan took the cake from his daughter and said with a smile: "The little birthday boy finally got his wish today and bought his favorite cake. Let's see how delicious this cake is."

    Opening the cake, Yang Fan was about to put in candles, but Xi Le knelt on the stool to stop him: "Dad, does it make the cake taste bad if you put in candles?"

    "No. Today is Xile's birthday. We should light candles and sing birthday songs." Yang Fan put his arms around his daughter, and couldn't help but think of his own illness. He wondered if he could still be with Xile on her next birthday?  The voice couldn't help but choked up, "Father wishes Xile a happy birthday."

    "Thank you, Dad."

    Yan Xi called Song Yunqing: "Mom, don't be busy, let's eat the birthday cake first?"

    Song Yunqing came out of the kitchen, saw the cake on the table, full of fruits, and asked, "How much is this cake?"

    Yan Xi said: "One hundred and eighty yuan, the joy has been stored for a long time!"

    "One cake costs so much?" Song Yunqing also said to himself many times in his heart, today is to talk about peace, to celebrate his granddaughter's birthday calmly, but when he sees this cake, he feels unhappy, kid  It's just a birthday, is it necessary to mobilize so many teachers?  A cake costs almost two hundred yuan. The children don't know what the family conditions are, and the mother doesn't count?

    She darkened her face: "Yanxi, it's not that I want to talk about you, you are also a mother, you can't be so unreliable in doing things. Is it necessary to buy such an expensive cake for the child's birthday?"

    Yang Fan said: "Mom, the child only has one birthday every year, so it is worth buying a better cake to make the child happy!"

    "Worth it?" Song Yunqing raised his voice, "Who doesn't have a birthday once a year, I don't even have a bowl of noodles on my birthday, and such a small person has to eat such an expensive cake. She is happy, but your life is gone  !"

    "Mom, don't be so alarmist, okay?"

    "Why am I alarmist, now that the family can't make ends meet, where does the money for her cake come from, and can't it be deducted from your medicine money?"

    Xi Le was frightened by Song Yunqing's appearance, hugged Yan Xi's waist, and hid behind her.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
