Upon hearing this, Old Mrs. Mo’s eyes lit up, “That’s right, we can find Ni Yang, Ni Yang’s medical skills are so brilliant, she can definitely save Xianxian.”

In Old Mrs. Mo’s heart, Ni Yang was becoming an ever-present beacon of hope.

Soon after, Old Mrs. Mo continued, “Isn’t Ni Yang coming to seeXiaodie for a follow-up examination tomorrow?”

“Yes.” Mrs. Lin nodded.

Old Mrs. Mo added, “Then let’s wait for Ni Yang to come and examine Xiaodie tomorrow, then she can look at Xianxian.”

It was already late afternoon, and it wouldn’t be appropriate to invite Ni Yang over at this hour. They could afford to wait a little longer.

Old Mrs. Mo stayed in the ward for a while, then went to find the chief doctor to understand Li Xianxian’s condition before leaving the hospital.

Ni Family.

Since Ni Yang decided to invite all the villagers for dinner that night, she bought a lot of food.

By Ni Yang’s estimation, there were over a hundred villagers in Jinghua Village. A table of ten would require ten tables in total.

In these times when everyone was not exactly living in abundance, Ni Yang bought thirty kilograms of fat pork, ten roosters, twenty pig’s feet, ten fish, and some tofu skin, kelp, duck blood, and potatoes for vegetarian dishes. She planned to prepare three hearty dishes, a grilled fish, and simply blanch the vegetables in the fish soup for efficiency and convenience.

Thirty kilograms of pork cost her 90 yuan, ten roosters were 30 yuan, twenty pig’s feet were 15 yuan, and ten fish were 3 yuan. Including the vegetables and white wine, Ni Yang spent a total of over 160 yuan.

160 yuan could only buy you one meal at a street food stall in the future, but in this era, it could put up ten tables of a lavish feast. All in all, it was money well spent.

Seeing Ni Yang bring so much food home, Ni Cuihua was surprised, “Yangyang, why did you buy so much? When will we finish all these?”

Ni Yang said with a smile, “Mom, our shop is now fully renovated, so I wanted to invite everyone for a feast to celebrate.”

Ni Cuihua wasn’t stingy. They had received a lot of care from the villagers since they moved to Jinghua Village.

“That’s right, we should treat everyone to a good meal. Speaking of which, Yangyang, did you buy extra meat?” Vegetables could be had by everyone, it’s the meat dishes that mattered.

Ni Yang nodded, “Yes, I did. Rest assured, everyone will have a feast tonight.”

Ni Cuihua helped Ni Yang to unload the groceries, then started to wash the vegetables and chop the meat.

Little Ni Yun was lying in his cradle, holding a little rubber duck and playing on his own, not crying or making a fuss, his cuteness was truly heartwarming.

Ni Yang planned to make braised pork for dinner, with ten tables in total and thirty kilograms of pork, each table could have three kilograms.

Braised pig’s feet with soybeans, there were twenty pig’s feet in total, each table could have two.

Then there would be roasted chicken, ten chickens in total, each table could precisely have one.

The final main dish was grilled fish.

As there were not enough stoves for everyone to cook and eat at the same time, Ni Yang could only grill the fish first, then cook it in a pot with accompanying vegetables and serve it at the table.

After confirming the menu, Ni Yang began to prepare the braised pork.

Because the pots at home were not large enough, the twenty kilograms of pork had to be cooked in two pots.

With the braised pork simmering in the pot, Ni Yang began to marinate the chicken. When the chicken was marinated, Ni Cuihua had the oven fire ready.

Luckily, the oven was spacious enough to accommodate ten roosters comfortably.

In no time, the small courtyard was filled with tempting aromas.

It made one’s mouth water just smelling it.

When she had almost finished the dinner preparations, Ni Yang went to the neighbouring houses to borrow some tables and stools, and invited everyone to come for dinner.

In just a while, the originally quiet farmhouse courtyard started to bustle with activity.

The elderly, children, men, and women of the families all came.

People were fairly straightforward in those times. If you were good to me, I would be good to you. There was no scheming or insensitivity.

So, everyone arrived bearing gifts.

Some brought chicken eggs.

Others brought fruit from the trees in their yard.

At this time of the year, there were oranges and chestnuts available.

In no time, the table in the Ni family’s living room was piled high with all kinds of little gifts.

Immediately, Ni Yang starts herding everyone to sit down. Since there were many children, some of them didn’t reach the table and stood next to the adults.

The food was sumptuous.

Shiny red braised pork, braised pig’s feet with soybeans, glistening roasted chicken, and in the middle of the table was a large pot of grilled fish, surrounded by blanched vegetables and tofu skin.
