Chapter 136 The gap is so big(1/2)
Su Xiaotian wanted to see the situation at Tan Zishi. Su Manxiu didn't trust her to go alone, so she went along.
The final result was that Su Manxiu hugged the child Chen Xiuyuan and took Su Xiaotian, and the three of them went to the alley together.
When Su Xiaotian came over, she heard someone talking in the room, a man and a woman.
Tan Zishi was very surprised to see Su Xiaotian arrive.
"Little girl, you're here." Tan Zishi said in a surprised tone. He wanted to drag his injured leg down to greet Su Xiaotian, but Su Xiaotian stopped him.
"Old man, lie down quickly. Don't use this leg."
Tan Zishi was shy and said to Su Xiaotian in embarrassment: "Little girl, thank you very much. Thank you for saving my wife!"
Su Xiaotian then turned her attention to the old lady lying on the bed beside her.
I saw the old lady lying on the bed with a pale face, covered with the same shabby quilt from yesterday.
When she looked at Su Xiaotian looking at her, the corners of her mouth moved slightly, and she could barely see a smile.
With just this smile, Su Xiaotian saw that the old lady's lips were chapped.
"Grandma, you need to drink more water. I'll pour you some water. Have you taken your medicine today?"
While Su Xiaotian was talking, she actually took a broken bowl and poured water.
"Thank you, little girl." The old lady thanked Su Xiaotian in a hoarse voice.
She thought that she would definitely die this time, but who knew that she would be rescued by some kind-hearted people.
Just now, Tan Zishi said, it was because she had been doing good deeds and accumulating virtue for most of her life that someone rescued her.
She thought that no matter how young her savior was, he shouldn't be as old as she was. He looked like a teenager, right?
Maybe seeing the old lady staring at her, Su Xiaotian smiled and said: "Grandma, you don't have to be polite to me, I just met you! I thought... Fortunately, I just took medicine.
, you will be much better!"
She was much better. She had thought that just taking medicine might not make the terminally ill old lady get better.
But the result was much better than she expected.
In other words, the old lady's vitality is too tenacious.
"There is no way I can repay the kindness of saving my life. I will definitely repay the little girl in the future!" Although it was difficult to speak, the old lady still struggled to say.
Su Xiaotian didn't think about the old lady's repayment. She carefully fed the old lady some water and took her pulse. She found that she was recovering well, so she felt relieved.
Tan Zishi's pulse was checked again, but Tan Zishi's recovery effect was not very good.
After all, he injured a bone, and at such an age, it is normal for him to not see improvement for a while.
"Your health is not good and you are very short-term. You must eat carefully. It is best to eat some eggs and meat..." After saying this, Su Xiaotian suddenly remembered that eggs and meat are not something that can be eaten casually.
Arrived.
Forget it, it's better not to say this, so as not to hurt people's hearts.
Tan Zishi looked at Su Xiaotian, then at Su Manxiu, and finally made up his mind and said, "Little girl, can you do the old man a favor?"
Su Xiaotian looked at Tan Zishi's solemn expression and didn't know what kind of help he wanted them to do.
"Old man, please tell me."
"Can you please help me buy some eggs? Don't worry, I will give you the money." After a pause, Tan Zishi said tentatively: "However, I don't have a ticket in my hand. And the money is also..."
He hesitated, as if he didn't know whether to say something or not.
The old lady lying on the bed obviously did not expect that Tan Zishi suddenly said these words.
"I can't take out the money, so I can only take out some gold and silver, and I have to trouble the little girl to help change the money." The more Tan Zishi said, the softer his voice became, and the less he dared to look at Su Manxiu's expression.
Just because Su Manxiu's face was completely dark.
If you exchange gold and silver for eggs, who are you trying to frame?
At this time, who dares to deposit gold and silver casually?
"Xiaotian, let's go!" Su Manxiu said firmly, fearing that Su Xiaotian might be kindhearted and agree.
But Su Xiaotian didn't think this matter was serious because she had ready-made egg stamps in her hand.
As long as you properly hide the gold and silver the old man gave you, your family has saved a lot of gold and silver in the past few years. It doesn't matter if you have more or less.
"Auntie, look at them like this. If they don't get some good food, it will be difficult for the two of them to recover!" Su Xiaotian said unbearably.
"Xiaotian, but they..." Thinking of Chen Zian's words, Su Manxiu was still quite worried.
Tan Zishi was watched by many people. If these people discovered that Tan Zishi had given gold and silver to Xiaotian, they would probably get burned.
In the end, Su Xiaotian insisted on helping Tan Zishi get two kilograms of eggs.
"I originally wanted to get you some meat, but in an environment like yours, if you eat meat, you might be stared at, which is not good."
This is the truth. Tan Zishi also knows that as long as there is even the slightest smell of meat in their home, they will be targeted.
"Little girl, thank you. You brought us rice yesterday and bought us eggs today. This is a little bit of my gratitude. I know that money in these days is not valuable, but at least this stone is
OK."
Tan Zishi took out a silver ring from somewhere, with a very transparent sapphire inlaid on it.
Even though Su Xiaotian didn't know gems, at this moment, she was attracted by the bright light emitted by sapphires!
"It's just a few kilograms of rice and two kilograms of eggs, it's not worth so much!" Su Xiaotian declined.
If it was just a little gold and silver, Su Xiaotian would have accepted it. However, the gems on the ring given by Tan Zishi were very precious.
It is no exaggeration to say it is priceless.
But thinking about it, Su Xiaotian felt relieved. How could something that Tan Zishi had saved from all these years of adventure be ordinary!
"You don't have to think it's precious. If something like this can save our lives, it's worth it!"
The old lady was obviously surprised when Tan Zishi said this.
Over the years, no matter how difficult it was, the old man never took out the last thing he had hidden.
Even if the two of them were tortured, beaten, and humiliated every once in a while, he would never let it go. Isn't it just to keep it for his son and grandson?
Why are you willing to take it out now?
"Little girl, take it." Tan Zishi said firmly.
Two lives, this ring is simply not enough to repay.
He originally wanted to give more, but gave up after thinking about it.
If you give too much to the little girl at one time, if the little girl doesn't hide it properly, she may get into trouble.
It's just a ring, not conspicuous.
He didn't know that no matter how many good things he gave to Su Xiaotian, Su Xiaotian would still be able to keep them well.
There is no other reason. Just some time ago, during the Dragon Boat Festival, Su Xiaotian signed in for three years without missing a day, and won the system grand prize.
This system grand prize is indeed a good treasure for Su Xiaotian. He got a storage box.
She doesn’t know what this storage box is. She has put a lot of things in it, but the storage box still doesn’t seem to be full.
According to the system Anna, this storage box has a hidden function. In other words, no one can see this storage box except the owner of the storage box, Su Xiaotian.
Su Xiaotian also asked Anna, but Anna couldn't tell how much this storage box could hold.
She just said that the storage box requires a certain amount of energy, and this energy is obtained by Su Xiaotian's reading and learning.
The more things you put in it, the more energy it consumes. Based on the energy Su Xiaotian has gained from studying every day, the storage box can hold a lot of items.
Anna can't accurately indicate the exact number of these many items. It can only say that it will remind you when it is close to the upper limit.
It is precisely for this reason that Su Xiaotian has become more and more motivated to study recently. She studies for ten hours every day, rain or shine.
After getting the storage box, Su Xiaotian went up the mountain to the city and packed up all the treasures she could find.
Even the last time she came to the county town, she even ventured to the black market. On the black market, she also exchanged food stamps for some good items and hid them.
Through Chen Zian's relationship, I also went to the county's waste recycling station to look for it.
However, I don’t know if this recycling bin is too small. Su Xiaotian didn’t get too many good things, but only a few unique books.
If these few isolated copies were kept decades later, they would still be considered treasures, but they are worthless in these years.
But everything she bought in exchange seemed to be less valuable than this sapphire ring.
She couldn't even quite understand why a sapphire of such high quality would be set in silver. Wouldn't it be better to use gold?
"Then I'll accept it. I'll come see you tomorrow and bring some ointment. It will be good for the injury if applied on the leg." Su Xiaotian accepted the ring, said a few more words, and pulled Su Manxiu.
leave.
Su Manxiu was hesitant to speak all the way. She didn't say to Su Xiaotian until she got home, "Xiaotian, you are too reckless. If someone catches you..."
She was really scared. Xiaotian, a newborn calf, was not afraid of tigers.
It's also because the atmosphere of the Red Heart Team is so good that Xiaotian, a kid, has no idea how tense the current situation is and how many people with ulterior motives are waiting to grab others' pigtails all day long.
