The elderly woman's dinner was very simple.
Cornbread with white rice porridge and a bowl of pickled vegetables.
"Grandma Liu, I'm here."
Grandma Liu was getting on in years, and her hearing had been gradually declining until Ni Yang approached her, only then did she notice Ni Yang, "Yangyang's here! When did you get back, Yangyang?"
Ni Yang said loudly, "Grandma Liu, I got home this morning."
Grandma Liu nodded and continued, "Did your parents come back with you?"
"They came back, and my maternal grandparents and grandma came along, too."
"That's good, that's good. It's more lively when the family is together." Grandma Liu took Ni Yang's hand and had her sit down.
Ni Yang took the food out of the basket, "Grandma Liu, this is what my mom sent over for you, just taken out of the pot, eat it while it's hot."
