Chapter 59

The few of them are used to dealing with all kinds of people in the black market, so they can naturally see what kind of tone they should use when dealing with people. They are used to talking nonsense when talking about people.

The old man knew from his face that he was not someone to be trifled with. The older man restrained his temper and was polite, and then pulled the young man to make him pay attention not to look around.

The older man obviously has more experience and speaks more tactfully, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he asked kindly: "Master, excuse me, our house just entered the thief, and our brother chased the thief to this boundary and disappeared. I wondered if this thief was hiding in a nearby house, so I came over and asked my uncle, did you see any sneaky people?"

Then he added: "If the thief accidentally enters someone's house, he may steal something! So if you always have any clues, we can catch this thief together."

Another young man interjected, "That thief doesn't look very tall, he's wearing gray clothes, oh, and he's carrying a pannier!"

"Ahem, that's really unsafe, but the old man was in the yard just now, and didn't see any strange people." Looking at the shrewd middle-aged man, the old man replied with a righteous face.

Suddenly there was a violent coughing sound in the room. Hearing this, the old man was anxious and worried about his wife's health, so he showed an impatient expression on his face, "Go and look elsewhere!"

Seeing this, the two people at the door didn't dare to bother them any more, they said "excuse me" nicely, and left.

Seeing the two leave, the old man went directly to the opposite yard to inquire. Thinking of the cough just now, he immediately closed the door and hurried back into the house.

In the main room, as soon as Jiang Qingwan entered, she saw a sickly old woman lying in a corner of the main room. When she saw the old woman's face was sallow and her lips were purple, she knew she must be seriously ill.

When the old woman saw a strangely dressed little girl come in, she smiled kindly and asked her to find a chair to sit down.

She heard the hint from the old man just now that the girl should be in some trouble.

Looking at the height of the girl, this girl should not be very old, she should be about the same age as her grandson, she smiled and wanted to get up to pour water for the girl, but her body was too heavy and she didn't have the strength to get up, so she had to apologize and let Jiang Qingwan go to the table by herself Pour some water into the tin thermos on the bed.

Jiang Qingwan was already a little embarrassed to break into other people's yards, but now she entered the house again, still dressed as if she went to the black market, somewhat embarrassed, greeted the old woman with a smile, and then tactfully rejected the old woman's kindness.

The old woman saw the little girl looking outside from time to time, thinking that she should be worried about the situation outside, and comforted her with a smile: "Little girl, don't worry, my old man will definitely be able to deal with people outside, and won't let them in, even if Come in, you can hide in that utility room, and no one will find out."

Maybe it was because she was speaking in a hurry, the old lady was a little short of breath, and started coughing non-stop after she finished speaking.

Jiang Qingwan originally focused most of her thoughts on the situation outside, but when she turned around, she saw that the old woman's face was flushed from coughing, as if she was about to cough up her lungs.

Seeing that the old woman was so uncomfortable, Jiang Qingwan walked to the table where the old woman had just told her to pour water, picked up an enamel cup and poured some hot water from the thermos, then saw a printed porcelain teapot beside it, weighed it with her hands and found that it was just right Some are cold, so I pour some into the cup to make the water temperature suitable.

Then he took the cup and went to the old woman's bed, bent down to help the old woman up, stroked the old woman's back with one hand to give her comfort, and handed the enamel cup to the old woman's mouth with the other hand, and said softly: "Grandma, Are you okay, drink some water!"
