Silly couple dote on their wives

Chapter 516 The Little Sister Who Loves Brown Sugar Cake

"Sister-in-law said that sister Ruoqing's craftsmanship is unmatched." Tao Wanqiu put a spoonful of tofu nao into her mouth, squinted her eyes, and said to Meng Ruoqing.

"Your mouth is sweet, as if you've been rubbed with honey." Meng Ruoqing glanced at Tao Wanqiu, put down the bowl, and said to Chen Shi, "How is the child these days?"

"Very good, thank you, Ruoqing, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't know what to do." When talking about the child, Chen stepped aside and held Meng Ruoqing's hand.

"They're all from my own family, so there's no need to talk about that." Meng Ruoqing said with a slight smile.

While the two were talking, a woman ran in from outside the door and took Chen's hand: "Daughter-in-law Shanhe, please help me and beg your sister-in-law, let her save my child, save me boy!"

"Sister Zheng, don't do this!" Chen subconsciously looked at Meng Ruoqing, with a bit of embarrassment on her face.

Meng Ruoqing frowned slightly, and asked, "Sister-in-law, what's going on?"

"Ruoqing, this is Mrs. Zheng next door to the shop. She knows about my child. Her child was also sick a few days ago, and the doctor said it was hopeless, so she came to me and asked for your help." whispered in his ear.

Mrs. Zheng?Meng Ruoqing thought about it for a while, it seemed that she was a nice woman who came to help a few times when the tofu shop opened.

"Ruoqing, Ruoqing, I beg you, please save my child, she is only five years old!" Aunt Zheng saw Meng Ruoqing, let go of Chen Shi's hand, grabbed Meng Ruoqing's hand, and begged.

"Sister Zheng, I'll follow you to have a look. As for the result, I can't guarantee it." Looking at Aunt Zheng's appearance, Meng Ruoqing also felt a little uncomfortable. After thinking about it, she nodded and agreed.

"Hey, hey!" Mrs. Zheng wiped her tears, and while pulling Meng Ruoqing out, said thank you: "Ruoqing, thank you so much, thank you!"

"Sister Zheng, don't talk about this for now." Meng Ruoqing said as she followed Sister Zheng into the house.

Entering the room, Meng Ruoqing smelled a rotten smell, Meng Ruoqing frowned, looked to the side of the bed, and saw a child lying there.

Her exposed little hands were covered with thick sores, and thick water was flowing down her fingertips and dripping into the basin beside the bed.

Tao Wanqiu had never seen such a scene before, she frowned and tried her best to restrain herself, but she still couldn't hold back, she ran outside and vomited.

Meng Ruoqing walked to the bedside, the child's face was also covered with pustules, the original face could no longer be seen, only a pair of shining eyes remained.

"I remember you, you are the beautiful aunt next door." When the child saw Meng Ruoqing, a faint smile appeared on his face.

"I remember you too, you are the little sister next door who loves to eat brown sugar cakes." Meng Ruoqing sat down beside the bed. At that time, she always sat in front of the hall and saw this girl running home with a piece of brown sugar cakes.

Hearing Meng Ruoqing's words, the light in the little girl's eyes became brighter. She really wanted to touch Meng Ruoqing with her own hand, but she seemed to think of something again, and her expression darkened: "Pretty aunt, do you really recognize me?"

"Of course, you gave me a piece of brown sugar cake back then. I still remember the taste. It's very sweet and delicious." Meng Ruoqing smiled slightly, and held her little hand in it.

"Pretty auntie, you are so gentle, I like you so much." Seeing her little hand being held by Meng Ruoqing, the little girl smiled even more intensely.

"I know I can't live anymore, but if I leave, will my mother be sad?" The little girl turned her eyes to the door, with tears in her eyes: "I don't want to make my mother sad."

For such a sensible and well-behaved girl, Meng Ruoqing, who has always been eloquent, didn't know what to say. It was too late. If it was half a month earlier, she might still have a way.

"Is there anything you want your aunt to do for you?" Meng Ruoqing was silent for a long time before she spoke slowly.

"I want to go see the cherry blossoms again." The little girl was silent for a long time, as if she was seriously considering Meng Ruoqing's question. After a while, she looked at Meng Ruoqing and said.

"Okay, Auntie agrees." Meng Ruoqing nodded, stood up and walked outside: "Auntie will come to pick you up after a while, okay?"

"Okay, thank you pretty aunt." The little girl smiled slightly and nodded towards Meng Ruoqing: "Pretty aunt, can I invite my mother in?"

"Okay." Meng Ruoqing nodded before walking out: "Sister Zheng, I'm sorry, I can't help you."

"How could this happen! My miserable Shuang'er, how could this be happening!" Hearing Meng Ruoqing's words, Mrs. Zheng collapsed on the ground, with one hand desperately hammering her chest, as if this would make her feel better.

Meng Ruoqing squatted on the ground, and pulled Aunt Zheng into her arms: "Let her go with dignity."

Hearing Meng Ruoqing's words, Mrs. Zheng's voice suddenly stopped, and after a while, the painful cry came intermittently: "Why is my life so hard!"

Mrs. Zheng stood up, wiped away her tears, and walked into the house. There were soft voices coming from inside. Meng Ruoqing was standing under the eaves, looking up at the blue sky, her mind began to become confused.

"Sister Ruoqing, are you alright?" Tao Wanqiu walked to Meng Ruoqing's side and asked worriedly.

"I'm fine." Meng Ruoqing shook her head, opened the corners of her mouth, and smiled, but in Tao Wanqiu's eyes, this smile was indeed uglier than crying.

Meng Ruoqing turned around and glanced at the closed door, then turned and left.

At night, Meng Ruoqing stepped into Mrs. Zheng's house again. Mrs. Zheng came up to see Meng Ruoqing, wiping her tears, "Ruoqing, I"

"Sister Zheng, I'm here to pick up the child to see the cherry blossoms." Meng Ruoqing interrupted Sister Zheng, she wanted to fulfill the child's last wish, which she agreed to.

"En." She didn't say what she wanted to say, so Mrs. Zheng didn't say any more, she just went into the room and carried the little girl out.

"Pretty aunt, are you really here?" The little girl looked at Meng Ruoqing with joy in her eyes.

The little girl had already been tidied up, her hair was tied in a double bun, two red strings were tied to the bun, her face was covered with gauze, and because of this, her eyes were particularly bright.

Meng Ruoqing touched the top of the child's head with a smile, and said, "Since I promised you something, I will naturally do it."

A group of people went out of the house and got into the carriage. The little girl was lying in her mother's arms, already a little drowsy.

It wasn't until the open space outside the city that the carriage stopped. Meng Ruoqing asked Mrs. Zheng to carry the child off the carriage, and then ordered people to light all the fireworks.
