"That’s right, if anything happens, just tell the family. Isn’t your grandpa right here? There’s nothing you can’t get through!" Grandpa Shu chimed in.Behind the three of them, Xiaobai kept twisting its body, indicating that it was there too.
Jiaojiao felt a bit apologetic, "Grandma, Grandpa, I’m fine. I just didn’t rest well last night. I’ll be fine if I can just sleep next to Grandma for a while."
"Alright, alright, then Grandma will hold you while you sleep for a bit," Ruanlin Family’s elder immediately said.
Jiaojiao blinked her eyes, which felt sore and painful even when closed. Shu Jiao brought out a heated steam eye mask from the room and said as she walked, "This is what your aunt brought over a few days ago, saying it’s really useful. I’ll let you try it."
With that, she tore open the packaging, crouched in front of Ruan Jiaojiao, and applied it to her eyes.
Jiaojiao had cried too much last night, causing her eyes to swell up like walnuts, both painful and sore. The heated steam eye mask indeed made them much more comfortable.
But while her body felt better, there was no relief in her heart.
"Jiaojiao, Jiaojiao..." Zhao Li’s voice came in even before she did.
Jiaojiao’s heart skipped a beat, and she immediately lifted the eye mask to see Zhao Li bustling in with a vegetable basket in hand, loudly announcing, "Oh dear, how did your eyes get so swollen? It must be so uncomfortable. Don’t worry, godmother’s here. Look what I’ve got!"
Saying this, she lifted the vegetable basket, "This is fresh bass I specially bought early this morning at the market, said to be the best for calming the mind. Just wait, godmother will stew a pot of lily yam bass soup for you; it’ll guarantee you a good sleep and chase away all the nightmares."
