The era is sweet and fried: the widow and her man are back

Chapter 25, Gifts

"Quick, come inside and warm up, don't freeze." Seeing the three of them coming back, Bai Jiu and Aunt Peng immediately went forward to help them put down the firewood on their backs.

It was snowing outside, and there were many snowflakes on the clothes of the three of them.

"Thank you ma'am."

After entering the house, Bai Jiu helped Xiuxiu and Zhengyang change their coats, and gave them new ones to put on.

This was sent by Aunt Peng today. I didn't expect that she would make cotton clothes and trousers for the two children in just two days.

What a clever hand.

"Patriotic, don't move by the fire, be careful of freezing, there are no clothes for you at home." She herself was wearing the down jacket from the beginning, and she really didn't have any clothes for adults, even Gao Zhijun's clothes were not at home. one piece.

It can be seen how many days he is at home.

"It's okay, auntie, I'll just bake it." Aiguo said with some embarrassment.

Although he is still a child, he is still in his teens. He has already passed the age of ignorance and knows how to be shy.

"Okay, you can leave him alone, he can bake it, the dumplings will rot if you don't eat them, eat them quickly." Of course, Aunt Peng was also worried about being patriotic, but he was wearing too many clothes, and he took off his coat and was standing by the fire again. fine.

He is doing well.

Besides, there is nothing better than a bowl of dumplings to warm up your body.

"Yeah, I was too busy and forgot, get out of the pot, or it will be really bad."

The three mothers plus Aunt Peng's grandparents, five of them ate a pot of dumplings.

"Mother is delicious, really fragrant." Xiuxiu and Zhengyang may have returned from wandering around outside, hungry, and the first bite, the two of them screamed.

"It's not that the mother is delicious, but the dumplings are delicious, slow down, and be careful of burning." Bai Jiu felt something was wrong no matter what the two children said.

"Haha, you." Aunt Peng didn't react at first, but she also became happy when she heard Bai Jiu's words.

A patriotic smile also appeared on the corner of his mouth.

When Aunt Peng and Aiguo went back, Bai Jiu brought twenty of them back for them.

Aunt Peng really didn't want it, but Bai Jiu put the dumplings directly into Aiguo's arms, and she closed the door of the house after giving them away.

Helpless, I had no choice but to take the dumplings back home with my grandfather and grandson.

The smell of the dumplings next door aroused the greediness of the four people in the room not far next door.

"Old Wu, let's ask that girl to buy some food." This day is really unbearable.

Mr. Zhang sucked his nose hard towards the outside of the door.

That fragrance is really too strong.

"Okay, come back quickly, you won't be afraid of freezing." Seeing the virtue of his old man, Zhou Lan pulled him back angrily.

Mr. Zhang, who was pulled by the ear, was not angry, but a little greedy.

"Brother Wu, tell me, is that girl credible?" Elder Zhang asked, swallowing his saliva.

If you have something to do with Brother Ang, if you have nothing to do with Old Wu.

Mr. Wu rolled his eyes at him, "I'll ask when she comes next time." You can't come to ask by yourself.

If someone else looked at it, it would cause her trouble.

People have helped them a lot.

Those clothes were all worn on them last night.

That's called warmth.

Now I am no longer afraid to go out.

In the middle of the night, Bai Jiu took fifty dumplings and knocked on the door next door.

The dumplings are cooked by her, and they can be eaten hot.

If you let them cook, once people smell it, I'm afraid something big will happen.

"Who?"

"it's me?"

Soon Bai Jiu entered the broken house.

"Today I made some dumplings. It's not easy to deliver them to you during the day. You can eat them hot now." They have to go out to work during the day, so they can't eat them during the day.

Once you eat it, it will taste bad in your mouth, and it will be terrible if someone finds it when you go to work.

"Thank you, girl." The four of them were startled, but they owed a lot, and they didn't know how to thank her.

I only hope to have the opportunity to pay back one or two.

"You're welcome, I can't help you much." Bai Jiu didn't mean to draw anything from them, but just wanted to keep a few talents for the country.

She is clear about history and knows how important these devolved old people are to the future of the country.

After taking the dumplings, Mr. Wu stopped Bai Jiu.

"Girl, we don't know how to thank you, you take these, if you have a chance, help us buy some food back."

Mr. Wu took out a rag dumpling from the straw under his buttocks.

Hand them all to Bai Jiu.

Bai Jiu didn't know, so he opened it to have a look.

"I can't accept this." Besides the money, there were a lot of tickets inside.

The sum of the money would be several hundred at least, and she couldn't take it.

"Take it, we won't need this thing if we let it go, but don't worry, these are all on the way home, and my grandson sent them to me." Afraid that she was worried about the source of the money, Mr. Wu immediately explained .

"It's not this, the old man has too much money." She had nothing to worry about.

It just felt like there was too much money in it.

"Not much, not much." Elder Wu waved his hand, "You also know our identities, no matter how much money we have, we are powerless. We can't leave the village, let alone buy anything."

If it weren't for this, the previous people wouldn't starve to death or freeze to death.

Bai Jiu sighed, "That's fine, I'll try my best to prepare some food for you and buy two quilts for the winter." She could only help a little.

"No, no, just buy food, enough quilts for two beds, and you bring a lot of clothes, we have enough." Mr. Wu knew that this girl had a kind heart, but he couldn't harm her because of her kindness.

Enough of these things.

"If there is a chance, it would be best to help us get some medicine back, if not, forget it."

I'm not too young, and what I'm most afraid of is getting sick.

There is better self-defense with medicine than without medicine.

"Okay." Bai Jiu was blunt and took the things.

When it came to medicine, she looked at Mr. Li, "Is Grandpa Li better?" It's been a few days, and if she still hasn't recovered, she has to give some more.

Li Gaoyi patted his chest with a smile, "Okay, I don't cough anymore, thank you so much, girl." The medicine is really effective. He coughed after drinking it the first night, but it was a little uncomfortable.

But after drinking for two days, he felt he was cured.

Not only did he stop coughing, but even the previous heaviness disappeared.

Although Bai Jiu didn't know what kind of disease he was suffering from, but looking at it now, it might just be a normal cold and cough, or the medicine wouldn't be so effective.

"It's good when the illness is cured, but the medicine still needs to be taken, just forget it after taking it." She didn't give much.

It was only a few days of medicine, now three days have passed, at most two days, the medicine will be gone.

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

Zhou Lan was careful and knew that the girl in front of her was not simple, so she asked aloud: "If you have something to do when you go out in the future, please leave the child with us. It is getting colder and colder, and there is no need to go to the wasteland every day. gone."

Especially when it snows heavily, the captain will not ask them to work.

"That's a good relationship. I'll have to trouble a few of you then." Bai Jiu was not polite to them.

Another one, she intended for the children to learn something from them.

Even if it didn't take long, the children could still learn a lot in two years.
