Wang Yong spoke out the doubts in his heart and only after listening to everyone's chattering did he fully understand what had happened.
It turned out that after Wang Yong left, Zhang Kai took the jade back to the dormitory and called Second Grandpa, informing him that Wang Yong had been sent back in the middle of the night. He reassured the old man that Wang Yong was fine and hadn't been hurt at all.
After that, Second Grandpa and Second Grandma came to Wang Yong's place and informed his godparents. Soon, Aunt and Uncle also rushed over. Thus, there was a table full of food and people.
"Oh! You don't know. We were all watching TV and waiting for you. We thought we'd call you in half an hour to see where you were. But then, Little Black and Little White suddenly ran outside. Before we could figure out what was going on, Chief Diao shouted, 'Wang Yong is here!' and flew out. Then, Little Pitiful Night followed, and that's how we knew you were back." Second Grandma, holding the two little sloth monkeys with Chief Diao perched on her shoulder, looked at the little guys proudly and said to Wang Yong.
Wang Yong was now listening to everyone's stories while devouring the fish, meat, and vegetables in his bowl. He didn't forget to throw the bones with meat to Little Black, Little White, and White Fur.
Little Black and Little White showed great leadership and never fought with White Fur for food. They always waited for White Fur to take a bone and run to Wang Yong's feet to gnaw on it before they would come to eat the meat bones Wang Yong gave them. They didn't bully the new little wolf, which surprised Wang Yong greatly.
After all, this was a friendship that transcended species! White Fur was a genuine forest wolf, no doubt about it. But thinking about how they had all been in the small world, could that be the reason they forgot the ancestral enmity?
The welcoming banquet had only been going on for half an hour when only his godfather and Wang Yong were left. Second Grandpa, Second Grandma, Uncle, and Aunt had eaten a little and then couldn't stay, so they went home to sleep. Of course, the two little sloth monkeys were taken by Second Grandma as a matter of course.
What reason? There was no reason. Things brought by her grandson, she had to take care of, no reason needed!
Even funnier, Second Grandma had given the two little guys names in such a short time. The bigger female monkey was called Mengmeng, and the smaller male monkey was called Taotao. She called them so affectionately that even Aunt couldn't stand it, let alone Second Grandpa. The old man was so angry that he said, "Playing with things ruins one's will," and didn't even drink his wine, storming out angrily.
After they left, his godmother also took the two little guys, saying she would give them a bath. She left her husband and godson alone in the living room, staring at each other.
For these little guys, besides Little Black and Little White who already had jobs, Wang Yong planned to put them in the ecological restaurant when it opened to attract customers. They might even become a highlight!
But life is full of changes. As people often say, plans can't keep up with changes. Wang Yong really didn't expect these little guys to have such charm. If it were Wang Han or Wang Qian, or some kids, he wouldn't be surprised, but Second Grandma and his godmother? Wang Yong felt he might have underestimated the charm of these little guys.
The next day, Wang Yong woke up at 10:30 in the morning. He dressed, brushed his teeth, and washed his face, and by the time he finished, it was 11:00. Breakfast was definitely skipped.
His godfather and godmother were not at home, who knows where they went. Wang Yong lay on the sofa in the living room, thinking about what to make for lunch.
Hmm, the stir-fried dishes from yesterday can be reheated together. This is even better than freshly stir-fried! (Wang Yong always thought that reheated stir-fried dishes were better, especially when mixed together, the taste is unbelievable!)
That's one. The leftover ribs and bones can be reheated, making another hearty dish. As for the leftover fish from yesterday, it's even easier to serve cold.
Wang Yong had put it in the fridge yesterday, and making fish jelly is a must. This thing might be hard for those who don't like the fishy smell, but if you can eat it, it's a super delicious side dish!
Three dishes, what else should I make?
"I wonder if Wang Yong has woken up yet? Don't tell me he's still in bed." His godmother's voice came from outside the yard.
"Let him sleep a bit more! I heard from Dahu that he wandered in the forest for several days and came back without resting properly. He must be exhausted."
Hmm? That sounds like Uncle Li's voice.
"Then I'll go check if my brother is awake."
Is that Xiaxia?
Hearing that they were about to come in, Wang Yong immediately got up and ran to the kitchen. He fully demonstrated his enhanced skills, turning on the gas stove, placing the pot, heating it, and putting in the vegetables. "Whoosh," a cloud of steam rose, and the mixed aroma of vegetables, meat, and seasonings immediately filled the air.
He started heating the pot on the other stove and began heating the rice and steamed buns with the electric cooker.
Just as he adjusted the electric cooker, he heard footsteps coming from behind.
"Hey! Second Brother, you're awake? I was just about to wake you up. How could you get up so early?" Seeing Wang Yong already busy cooking, Xiaxia, who had been thinking of ways to wake him up, was quite unhappy.
Wang Yong treated Xiaxia like his own sister, just like Wang Han and Wang Qian. As an older brother, he had to comfort her.
"Oh! It's all my fault. If I had known my little sister Xiaxia was coming to wake me up, I would have stayed in bed for three days just to wait for you. How about this, I'll go back to bed, and you can come wake me up again, okay?"
"Ha ha ha ha..." A group of people laughed outside.
Xiaxia's face turned red, and she glared at Wang Yong, then turned and ran out of the kitchen.
"Wang Yong, that's enough. Leave this to your godmother. Go inside and keep Uncle Li company. I'll cook a couple more dishes, and you two can have a drink." His godmother unceremoniously pushed Wang Yong out of the kitchen.
"Godmother, fry some peanuts, I want to eat them." Wang Yong said as he left.
"Got it, go set the table."
As he came out of the kitchen, he saw Uncle Li and his family of three coming over.
"Uncle Li, Aunt Sun, come in and sit down. I'm almost done with the food, let's start eating."
"Hehe, sure. Bring out your good wine, let's have a good drink at noon." Li Hongxing said happily.
"Later, your Aunt and the others will come over. I'll go help your godmother in the kitchen." Aunt Sun said, then pulled Xiaxia, who was grinning at Wang Yong, into the kitchen.
"Uncle Li, what's got you so happy?" Wang Yong asked as he set the table and chairs, preparing to eat.
"Hehe, this time Uncle Li came specially to thank you."
"Thank me? Uncle Li, we're family. What's this talk of thanks? That's too formal, isn't it?"
"Not too formal, I must thank you. I'll tell you, Xiaxia's illness is cured!"
"What?" Wang Yong was really stunned by Li Hongxing's words. This was Eisenmenger syndrome, a condition that countless medical experts worldwide had been helpless against. How could it suddenly be cured? Hmm, wait, could it be?
Uncle Li's next words confirmed Wang Yong's thoughts.
"A few days ago, I took Xiaxia to the hospital in the capital for a check-up. Since she has to be checked several times a year, I've become friends with the doctors there. This time, I was very nervous, afraid it had worsened. But when the results came out, the doctors were shocked."
"What happened?" Wang Yong pretended to be surprised, playing along with the excited Li Hongxing.
"Hehe, the check-up showed that Xiaxia's condition had significantly improved. This is a recognized incurable disease. The doctor asked me what medicine Xiaxia had taken and where she had been treated. I was also confused. Xiaxia hadn't gone anywhere recently. Then I remembered that you had been sending her your famous super vegetables. I told the doctor that Xiaxia had been eating super vegetables regularly."
"What did the doctor say?" Wang Yong asked, playing along.
"Hei! The doctor was stunned. 'Super vegetables? And she eats them regularly? How is that possible?' That's what the doctor said. I told him that they were grown by my nephew, and it's not strange to eat them every day. That stunned the doctors!"
"What's going on? So lively?" Second Grandpa, Second Grandma, Uncle, and Aunt came in together.
"What else? Just showing off." Uncle said with a smile.
"Everyone's here, let's sit down and eat while we talk." His godfather called everyone to the table.
At this moment, Xiaxia brought out the reheated leftovers and placed them in front of Wang Yong, winking at him. It seemed she had heard from Aunt that he liked to eat this way and had brought it to him. This girl was worth the love!
After sitting down, Uncle Li continued to excitedly tell his story.
The doctors were all shocked when they heard this. No one had expected that the super vegetables, which were already famous, were grown by the patient's nephew and seemed to have a significant effect on Eisenmenger syndrome.
So, a group of doctors began to ask Li Hongxing detailed questions. When they learned that Li Hongxing, thinking this time would be like before and that his daughter might stay for ten to fifteen days, had brought a lot of super vegetables to cook for her, the doctors, including the hospital director and many experts who had rushed over, were stunned. On the market, super vegetables were truly priceless, and no amount of money could buy them. This man had brought enough super vegetables for ten days.
Immediately, the hospital director asked Li Hongxing to provide some super vegetables to the hospital to verify if they really had a therapeutic effect.
When he learned that his daughter's condition had significantly improved, almost like a normal person, Li Hongxing, overjoyed, gave all the super vegetables in the trunk to the hospital and immediately checked Xiaxia out, driving home.
He wanted to go to Ban Shan Village as soon as he got home to thank Wang Yong for saving his daughter's life.
But when the family happily arrived at Ban Shan Village, they heard that Wang Yong had gone on a trip.
