After Mrs. Chen brought her grandson to thank them on the first day, she came again on the second day and brought them two handfuls of dried vegetables.
Over and above the words, I persuaded them again, which probably meant that they should turn back, take another road, and put in some effort, it would be better than nothing.
What a nice guy. Lu Songli just smiled and changed the subject, without saying yes or no.
Later, Mrs. Chen learned that Qin's mother was ill. After asking what the illness was, she also said that she would give them half a bowl of medicinal wine collected at home, saying that Qin's mother would be cured of her illness after drinking the medicine.
Lu Songli quickly rejected the other party's kindness, saying that her mother-in-law had already taken medicine and would recover soon.
Qin's mother had indeed taken the medicine. When Qin's mother fell ill, she checked her pulse and determined that she had an old disease. She took off a chicken wing wood bracelet in her hand, smashed it open, and took out nearly three pieces of it. She took out ten highly concentrated pills, which she had prepared for Qin's mother before.
Fortunately, her mother-in-law had taken medicine for a while, otherwise she would have fallen ill. But Lu Songli said nothing.
Qin Heng and Qin Zhao gave her a thumbs up, "Sixth brother and sister, you are really thoughtful."
Qin Heng and others also knew that Qin's mother was in poor health and had traveled more than a thousand miles from being imprisoned to being exiled. It was really beyond their expectations that she could persist until now.
They were very grateful to Lu Songli, their younger sibling. She made all the arrangements, but in fact they were the ones who benefited the most.
If it hadn't been for her initial arrangement to be exiled, I can't imagine what would have happened. When there is a lack of food and clothing, the mother will also collapse, right? Will the child get sick? What about after getting sick? There is no money and no medicine for treatment...
In such a harsh environment, once they fall ill, death may be the only thing waiting for them. How could it be like now, with everyone unscathed? They knew exactly who was thanks to this and who had the greatest credit.
Qin Sheng looked at the bead string on his left hand and curiously asked Lu Songli in private, "What's in this?"
Qin Sheng could feel that the bracelet he was wearing was heavier than hers. Could it be that it wasn't pills?
"Your string is full of gold beads." When she was making preparations, she didn't know how effective her backhand would be, so she got some gold beads and pills with her.
Qin Sheng touched it and saw that the golden pearl was a little heavy.
Just as Lu Songli was thanking Mrs. Chen for her kindness, she found that her great-grandson Chen Changan had been looking at her.
Lu Songli noticed his gaze and smiled at the child.
At this moment, the door was pushed open. Lu Songli looked up and found that Qin Sheng was back. He looked very tall and tall with a white fur vest and trousers and boots.
With broad shoulders, a narrow waist and long legs, it would be more pleasing to the eye if he was holding a gun instead of a spore leg.
The smile remained on her face, and there was obvious appreciation in her eyes. Qin Sheng's gaze was always unmatchable.
He nodded to Mrs. Chen, then put the spore leg in his hand aside, "Is mom feeling better?"
"better."
"Let's use this spore leg to stew soup. I heard it's also very nourishing."
"OK."
Mo Bing and the others brought a lot of supplies, but there was no fresh meat. They were all bacon or frozen meat. Ever since Qin Sheng led Hu Guangcong's team to conduct reconnaissance of Qinglong Village, he had always come back with some fresh prey. I should have hunted a stupid spore today and brought back a leg.
Chen Changan on the side suddenly said, "I know who in our Qingxi Village is tipping off Qinglong Village, and I can tell you."
Lu Songli and Qin Sheng looked at him at the same time.
Mrs. Chen quickly covered his mouth, "You kid, what are you talking about?"
But Chen Changan did not pull her hand, but looked at Lu Songli and others with stubborn eyes.
This child is quite smart. Lu Songli bent down and looked at him levelly, "Child, why did you tell us?"
"I know you want to deal with Qinglong Village, I can help you."
This child is only eight years old. No, he looks like he is seven or eight years old. "How old are you? Have you read a book? What do you want?"
The child then took off Mrs. Chen's hand with both hands, looked directly at her, and said firmly, "I am ten years old this year! I have read some books, and I want to go with you!"
"Why do you have such a right idea, kid?" Old Mrs. Chen hit his arm twice, but the kid stubbornly did not hide or cry out for pain.
Neither Lu Songli nor Qin Sheng spoke.
Mrs. Chen spanked the child twice and said to Lu Songli and Qin Sheng in a somewhat helpless manner, "This child has never been a sensible child. We don't know when he had such an idea."
After saying that, she went back to talk about the child, "You, your parents are gone, how can you be more ignorant?" Others can't tolerate you, even your relatives.
No matter what Mrs. Chen said, Chen Changan just looked at them.
Lu Songli watched this scene, and she could see the blazing fire in the child's eyes and the light in his eyes.
Although Mrs. Chen and Village Chief Chen were the child's relatives, they never understood what the child wanted. They just want their children to live. As for how they live, whether they are wronged or not, it doesn't matter. They may even let their children swallow their anger when they have a dispute with others.
Lu Songli could even predict that when the light in the child's eyes disappeared, he would become a person who disappeared from everyone, a numb person.
Lu Songli decided to give him and herself a chance. She said to him seriously, "My child, you are ten years old now. You stay in Qingxi Village and you will grow up in a few years. Qingxi Village has your Dear, your family still has the two acres of land and house left by your father to you. When you grow up, you can make your own decisions, and your life will get better. This is a very ordinary but very stable road. "
Mrs. Chen nodded aside, that's it. Who didn't come here like this?
"However, if you follow us, you will embark on another unstable road, which will be very hard, not easy, and you may even die. Are you still willing to follow us?"
"I'm not afraid!" Chen Changan looked at her firmly.
A ten-year-old child knows what he wants and is willing to work hard and fight for it. He also understands that only by giving will he be rewarded, instead of just making rude demands from the beginning, which is very good.
Lu Songli asked Qin Sheng, "How do you see this child's muscles and bones?"
Qin Sheng touched it and nodded, "It's okay."
Lu Songli knew that his standards had always been high, and what he said was just okay was really good.
"Okay, Grandma Chen, is Village Chief Chen at home now? Can I talk to you?"
She likes people like Chen Changan. He has tenacious vitality. Even after experiencing so many hardships in life, his edges and corners have not been smoothed out.
Just like a passage she read before, the reason why we live so hard in this world is not to let other people in the world erase our edges and transform us into something that is compatible with them, but that we should Continuously improve yourself, arm yourself, and make yourself stronger and stronger so that you can squeeze out others and leave enough room for your own edges and corners to survive.
