Rebirth, Old Lady in the Countryside: Taking Care of My Children and Grandchildren

Old Madam Qiao was reborn—seven days before her whole family was sent to the countryside.

Looking at her family, still safe and sound—her son and daughter-in-law alive, her two young gran...

Chapter 031: An Old Friend

What's going on? !

What else could it be? !

That's what happened.

The Song family is considered a wealthy family in Beijing, but their family has been doing business for generations and has no backing or support.

Just four years ago, something happened at home. First, our property was taken away by those people, and then our houses were taken away.

Then, in order to force out all the wealth of the Song family, these people ended up killing two sons, the eldest daughter-in-law, and the youngest daughter-in-law ran away.

If there weren't so many grandchildren to raise, Mr. Song and his wife would have wanted to follow their sons.

For the sake of their children, the two old people were able to hold on through gritted teeth. The place they live in now is still the worst house of the Song family before, but even so, more than half of it was snatched away by the rich, and these few rooms were given to the grandparents and grandchildren to live in.

Not to mention, I never had enough to eat on weekdays, and it's still cold now. The family had no money to buy charcoal for heating, and the quilt they slept under in the cold house was not warm enough, so they got sick.

"Forget about it. The street police came to my house these days to inform me that I have reached the age to go to the countryside, and they want me to go there."

"It's good for Xiaoluo to go to the countryside. There are wild vegetables everywhere. No matter what, there is always something to eat."

"Grandma and grandpa, I don't want to go to the countryside. What will you do if I go? What will my brothers and sisters do? They are still so stubborn."

After talking about the Song family's affairs, Grandma Song suddenly sighed and talked about another current dilemma with a sad face.

As a result, Grandpa Song had a different idea from her. He felt that it was not a bad thing for his eldest grandson to go to the countryside. On the contrary, it was a good thing and a way to make a living.

However, just as the old couple finished their words, Song Luoyun on the side objected excitedly.

He couldn't be so selfish and only care about himself and not the life and death of his family. He couldn't do that.

Qiao Ruru and Su Huaiyuan looked at the old, weak and disabled people in the room, and then looked at Song Luoyun, a boy who was said to be seventeen years old. They thought he was only fifteen years old, but they didn't expect him to be seventeen years old.

"Luo, this country has to go down, it's not up to us to decide."

Old Master Song could not help but say that nowadays every family with a child of age must send one child to the countryside, and since their eldest grandson was old enough, he had to go to the countryside.

Moreover, considering their family's situation, it would be best for Luo to go to the countryside in the south. The south has crops and harvests all year round, and it is not as cold as the north. The biggest reason is that there are no extra quilts and cotton clothes at home for Xiaoluo to take away.

Song Luoyun stopped talking and kept wiping away his tears. He couldn't bear to leave his grandparents and his brothers and sisters.

"Grandpa, grandma, my brother and sister seem to have gotten rid of their fever."

At this moment, a pleasantly surprised and crisp voice broke the repression and silence. The speaker was Song Shuyun, the second sister of Song Luoyun, who had been listening to everyone's conversation in silence and without any sense of existence.

She had been silently observing her two younger brothers and sisters who had fever, so she was able to notice when their fever had subsided in the first place.

What? !

Is the fever gone? !

Very good.

The Song family was simply surprised and delighted, as if they had heard the sound of nature. They had never expected the fever to subside so quickly, which made them extremely surprised and happy.

"I've retired. I really have retired."

"Okay, okay."

Grandma Song reached out to touch the foreheads of her two grandchildren and found that they really didn't have a fever anymore. Their faces were not so hot anymore, and she said excitedly.

Although Mr. Song was very excited, he was actually very relieved in his heart.

"Hey, I don't seem to cough much anymore."

Just now, he was coughing violently while talking excitedly, and he couldn't help but take a cough medicine given by Qiao Ruru.

As a result, he saw that he had been talking for such a long time without coughing once, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes with a look of disbelief.

This, this Chinese medicine is really effective. It reduces fever quickly and relieves cough quickly and effectively.

"Comrade Qiao, Comrade Su, we really don't know how to thank you enough."

Alas, we have nothing at home now, let alone money. We can't even afford to treat our family to a decent breakfast.

Mr. Song blushed and quickly stood up and bowed to Qiao Ruru and Su Huaiyuan.

Song Luoyun, who was standing next to him, knew the situation of his family. He knelt down with gratitude and kowtowed to Qiao Ruru and Su Huaiyuan.

"No, no, kid, get up quickly, get up quickly, just a few medicines, it's free."

"Yes, this medicine is very cheap. Anyone who sees it will lend a hand. It's not a big deal."

Qiao Ruru and Su Huaiyuan were shocked by the actions of the grandparents and grandchildren, mainly because their actions were too fast and the couple did not react in time to help Song Luoyun up.

"These days, not everyone is willing to lend a hand. You guys are the best."

Old Mrs. Song couldn't help but wipe her tears, lowered her head and said with sobs. If they hadn't had these two people just now, they really didn't know what to do.

"Comrade Qiao, you just said your last name is Qiao. Are you the Qiao family from Jishengtang?! I have heard that the courtyard next door is the dowry of old lady Qiao. Comrade Qiao, you are from the Qiao family who practice medicine and save lives, right?!"

After the two children's conditions improved, Mr. Song put aside his worries, and his mind began to return to normal. Looking at Qiao Ru in front of him, he recalled some past events.

"Yes, I am from the Qiao family who opened Jishengtang. My grandfather, father, and eldest brother are all doctors."

After his identity was revealed, Qiao Ru nodded and admitted it. She was really not worried that the Song family was the enemy of the Qiao family. The Qiao family had been practicing medicine for generations, curing illnesses and saving countless lives, and they had a good relationship with them by doing good things for them.

"It's really the Qiao family. The Qiao family is good."

Mr. Song was now truly relieved. No wonder the medicine he gave was so effective.

"Comrade Qiao, what a fate. I was a classmate of your father Qiao Xingcheng when we were young. It was later that I finished middle school and took over the family business. Later I heard that Xingcheng went to high school. I didn't expect that decades later I would meet his daughter, and his daughter even saved my grandson."
