That afternoon, Brother Gu's sister-in-law came looking joyous.
Upon seeing Gu Yi, she smiled without speaking first.
"Yiyi, thank you for taking care of your big brother during this time. I heard from your brother that it was all thanks to you."
After approaching, Sister-in-law handed two old hens to Gu Yi.
"Sister-in-law, why all the fuss? He is my brother. It was convenient for him to stay at home, and it was just an extra pair of chopsticks at meals. Nothing special was cooked for him, and Huihui is growing. You should take them back for her to eat."
Gu Yi said as she tried to return the hens to her sister-in-law.
Just then, Ye's mother came out of the kitchen.
"You silly girl, with the weather turning cold now, the hens have stopped laying eggs. I just slaughtered a few, and we kept some for ourselves. These two are specially to let my in-laws have a taste. Thank you for taking care of my family and Yiyi."
Sister-in-law Gu said with a smile to Ye's mother.
