The widow becomes a fairy, and the time-traveling girl counterattacks and becomes the queen

Chapter 549 Unnamed Draft

"Don't worry, Auntie, we didn't get wet at all."

As Wang Xinyao spoke, she naturally reached out and gently placed her fingertips on Wang Jing's wrist.

The pulse was steady and strong, and there was almost no trace of cancer cells.

It seems that in the past few days, my great-aunt has used a lot of spiritual plants from the Spirit Jade Space to nourish my aunt's body.

"That's good! It's the weekend, and your brother and sister-in-law are both free. How about we have them take you out for a stroll?"

Wang Jing spoke lightly, her face glowing with a healthy rosy hue; she didn't look like someone who had once been seriously ill and bedridden.

She couldn't help but wonder: Could the opportunities Yao'er has encountered over the years really cure even terminal illnesses?

Wang Xinyao smiled and shook her head, her voice gentle: "Auntie, we have to take the high-speed train to Kyoto tonight, so we won't go shopping. I want to stay home and spend more time with you."

"Didn't you just get back? Why are you leaving again?" Wang Jing's eyes dimmed instantly, her disappointment impossible to hide.

"Actually, I came back specifically to let you know because I was afraid you would worry. I haven't finished taking care of things in Kyoto yet, and I'll go straight back to my in-laws' house from there afterward."

Wang Xinyao held Wang Jing's hand and explained softly, "Our two kids are still being looked after by relatives. I've been worried about them ever since I left."

“Okay…! Then next time you come back, I’ll definitely bring the children with me! That way you can stay longer.” Wang Jing said, her eyes getting a little hot.

Wang Xinyao affectionately linked arms with Wang Jing and replied with a sweet laugh, "Yes, Auntie! We'll definitely stay a few more days next time."

Seeing this, Gong Li opened and closed her lips silently a few times, but in the end she pursed them and swallowed her words back.

The taste was as bitter as swallowing a nail.

Once Yao'er leaves, she will return to that suffocating sea abroad.

She had finally managed to persuade her husband to return to China, but a heavy rain delayed her return by two days.

She could almost foresee that in that "home," her husband's gloomy face and her son's impatient complaints were like a noose waiting for her.

Her heart felt heavy, as if a stone was pressing down on it.

"Auntie, I might not be back for a while. If you miss me, just message me on WeChat."

Upon hearing the word "WeChat," Gong Li's dim eyes suddenly lit up.

She stepped forward hesitantly, her voice soft and timid as she mustered her courage to ask, "Yao'er... can I... can I add you on WeChat?"

“Okay.” Wang Xinyao turned around, her tone calm, and took out her phone to unlock it.

After all, they were mother and daughter, and she couldn't bring herself to refuse.

Seeing Gong Li's cautious demeanor, Wang Xinyao felt a pang of sadness.

She could sense that her mother had once loved her.

Those eyes are now filled with weariness.

Life abroad alone after a second marriage is probably not easy...

After adding her as a friend, she sighed and took out six gold bars from her bag.

Based on market prices, it's worth at least three million yuan.

"Mom," she placed the gold brick in Gong Li's hand, "My husband is in the gold business. Please keep this as... as the betrothal gift he gave me when he married me."

She paused, her voice softening slightly: "When I'm short on cash, I exchange it for real money. Having money on me gives me confidence and I don't have to rely on others all the time."

"Yao'er, this...this is too precious, Mom can't accept it..." Gong Li's hands trembled slightly, her eyes fixed on the gold brick, feeling both helpless and moved.

She gave it a push, but her movement wasn't firm.

Because she really needs the money.

When I was with Wang Feng (Chen Qingfeng), although we were often apart, I never had to worry about money.

Wang Feng was always very gentle with her whenever he came home.

In previous years, she dared not return to China to see her daughter, fearing that if she came back, she would be unable to stop thinking about him.

In order to forget him, she hastily got married.

Her current husband is by her side every day, but he won't let her go out to work, and he'll argue with her for ages over a few dollars' worth of vegetables.

Wang Xinyao gently pressed her hand: "Mom, please accept it. I'm doing fine now, I don't need these things."

Don't make yourself suffer while you're all alone overseas. If you really can't make it, come back.

"Gong Li, take it, it's a token of the child's affection," Chen Qingfeng gently advised from the side.

Wang Jing smiled and replied, "Sister-in-law, both my brother and Yao'er said so, so you can accept it without worry."

Gong Li's eyes reddened, and she finally nodded: "Okay... Mom will accept it. Thank you, Yao'er. Take good care of yourself out there, and don't worry Mom."

The whole family spent the rest of the afternoon chatting in the living room.

Wang Xinyao listened patiently to her aunt and mother's ramblings, feeling a warm glow in her heart.

She took out the gifts she had prepared for everyone.

"Auntie, this is a sachet I made with flowers. You can put it by your pillow at night to help you sleep better. If you miss me, just talk to it, and I'll sense it."

"Thank you, Yao'er. Auntie likes it very much."

Then, she turned to her uncle Chen Qingfeng and handed him a can of tea full of spiritual energy and a warm jade pendant: "Uncle, I know you love tea, please try this 'Cloud and Mist Spirit Tea'. Wear this jade pendant with you, it can nourish your body."

Besides the gold brick, she also gave her cousin a "Pure Heart Jade Pendant" to help him cope with work troubles, and a small bottle of carefully blended "Beauty Elixir" to her cousin's wife. Finally, she smiled and ruffled her little cousin's hair, then magically produced an exquisite wooden sparrow: "Here, this 'Never-Ending Sparrow' is for you to play with. It will hum different songs depending on your mood. There's also a book recording rare flowers and herbs here; I'm sure you'll like it."

As dusk fell, Wang Xinyao, Zhao Haoxuan, and three others packed their luggage and prepared to head to the high-speed rail station.

The whole family saw them off at the door, and Wang Jing and Gong Li's eyes were full of reluctance.

Wang Jing straightened her collar and whispered, "Yao'er, when you get to Kyoto, remember to send a message to let us know you're safe."

Gong Li stood a step behind, her lips moved, and finally she only said softly.

"Be careful on the road... Mom is waiting for your news."

Wang Xinyao turned around and waved to them, her smile shining brightly in the twilight.

"Okay, everything will be fine. You all take good care of yourselves too!"
