Yang Dong sent Yang Xiaocui home and then went to town to get medicine for her.
He told Yang Xiaocui that once he got the medicine, he would hide it at the base of the wall, so she could find some time to pick it up tomorrow.
Today's incident also made Yang Dong more cautious.
He could no longer secretly deliver boiled eggs to Yang Xiaocui every day. Although he wanted to keep it from Yang Xiaocui's family, sneaking around like this wasn't good. If someone found out, there would surely be gossip.
Instead, he'd rather just give Yang Xiaocui a basket of raw eggs, just like the medicine soup, and let her hide it herself. Since she can manage the medicine, she should be able to handle the eggs too. After all, the medicine smells stronger than boiled eggs.
He told Yang Xiaocui about this, and she was very happy to have so many eggs and readily agreed.
After entering the yard, the children saw the fish and duck in Yang Xiaocui's hands and were thrilled.
