Chapter 149: Chen Tang is like a young lady who doesn’t care about worldly matters
Fan Yang: "He was not from our Haishi before, he just went to our Haishi to work in the countryside. He said he lived here for his aunt's family, but that's not the case at all. He bought the house for his job.
This guy looks enthusiastic, but there is always a hint of disdain in his eyes, as if he is wronged by staying in the same compound with us."
The ten-year-old kid obviously didn't fall for Yang Cheng's flattery and he complained without mercy.
"He has been in our compound for only a few months, since October last year. I heard that he works at the fertilizer factory. He must have hooked up with someone. I once saw him flirting with a woman in the alley, and the woman later entered the fertilizer factory compound."
Chen Tang lowered his eyes and thought, Yang Cheng deliberately drew their attention to the Fan family.
As far as she knew, the only woman in the fertilizer factory compound who was most hostile to her was Shi Bing.
Of course, it is also possible that the director of the fertilizer factory was secretly plotting against her. After all, she had offended this person before. However, it is unlikely that the director would be so idle as to take such a big step to plot against others.
If it was Shi Bing who asked Yang Cheng to enter the fertilizer factory, then Yang Cheng must have something against Shi Bing. Based on her understanding of Shi Bing, she would hate someone who threatened her with something against her and would try every means to get rid of him.
It is unlikely that he would go to great lengths to find a place for Yang Cheng to live, and he was also keenly aware that there was something wrong with the Fan family, so he designed them to investigate the Fan family.
There must be someone else behind Yang Cheng.
Su Xiaoxiao's mission was to protect Chen Tang. She was not clear about what she was going to do and didn't say much along the way.
Suddenly, she saw the three-year-old girl take something out of the room, walk to her side with her little legs, look at her timidly, put the grasshopper in her hand into her hand, and then quickly ran towards Chen Tang, put another big grasshopper in Chen Tang's hand, and raised her little head to show her an innocent smile.
Su Xiaoxiao silently reached out and pinched the little girl's face. The little brat was quite good at judging people and knew that she was not someone who was easy to get along with.
Fan Ling didn't dare to provoke her, so she took a step back silently and moved into Chen Tang's arms to lean against him.
Chen Tang held the child in his arms and asked Mrs. Fan, "Grandma, is Xiaoling's condition caused by a fever?"
Anyway, it's slow, just like the child in their family compound who had a fever for too long and whose reaction was slow.
Old Madam Fan reached out to hold Fan Ling's hand, and as soon as Fan Ling was pulled out, she struggled to move into Chen Tang's arms, looking unwilling to come out.
She looked at the child, who looked extremely thin due to malnutrition, with pity in her eyes and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"This child was weak to begin with, and had to take medicine almost all the time since she was little. That time, she had a fever at night, and it happened to be raining heavily, so I couldn't see her very well, and I didn't hear her groaning. By the time we took her to the hospital the next day, it was too late. The fever had made this smart child stupid."
Su Xiaoxiao rarely interrupted: "Was there no treatment afterwards?"
Chen Tang glanced towards Fan Yang.
The child sat there obediently, the hostility in his eyes completely disappeared. Perhaps because he felt guilty, he kept picking at his fingernails.
Mrs. Fan: "I treated it for a while, but I didn't have the money. The medicines in the big hospitals all cost money, so I didn't treat it again after that."
Chen Tang lowered her long eyelashes. She and He Xu had discussed that if Grandpa Fan Yang really left some information, who would he give it to?
Grandma Fan did not divorce Mu Hui when he just defected to the Japanese pirates.
But after she became pregnant, she could no longer bear the accusations and abuses, so she chose to divorce and return to her hometown.
But during this period, Mu Hui would send money to Grandma Fan from time to time, otherwise it would be extremely difficult for a woman like her to raise a child in such an environment.
Before Mu Hui was arrested, no one knew who he had visited. All they knew was that he was arrested at the train station.
The organization sent people to monitor Grandma Fan back then, but there was no abnormality for more than ten years, and gradually no one monitored a widow anymore.
She and He Xu played the roles of Grandma Fan and her husband.
If He Xu wanted to leave some information, he wouldn't just leave one piece of information.
The most important things will of course be given to the most important people.
In his life, his wife must be the most important person, but his comrades-in-arms who have experienced life and death with him are also important people to him.
Only when the other person handed over the things would he let Shen Tang hand over what he left behind.
The combination of the two things is the real intelligence.
He Xu has already gone to check on Mu Hui’s former friends.
Mu Hui came from a good family, his family was gentry, he was admitted to university when he was young, and he had many good friends among his classmates, but they all lost contact later.
He Xu and his comrades were investigating secretly and it would probably take one or two months for him to come back. Before he left, he told Chen Tang not to rush to find out the news, but to stay on good terms with the Fan family and wait for him to come back.
He guessed that maybe Mrs. Fan was not unwilling to hand them over. She was just wary and afraid when she saw them for the first time. It was very likely that she knew someone was watching them.
Now that He Xu is not here, Chen Tang must find a reason to come to Fan's house from time to time.
This reason was what she and He Xu discussed yesterday.
"Grandma, there is a child in our compound who had a fever and his brain is not very smart, but he has gotten much better after subsequent treatment.
Xiaoling's condition cannot be delayed. If you are short of money, I can donate some money for Xiaoling's treatment."
Chen Tang's eyes were full of pity, just like the kind of young lady who was out of touch with worldly affairs and couldn't bear to see ordinary people suffer, so she simply and kindly wanted to help them.
Grandma Fan looked at Chen Tang, and some vigilance rose in her cloudy eyes.
Over the years, there have been people who have tried to use gentle tactics to force her to tell them something.
Because of the precedent, she never made friends with others again. She kept a low profile as much as possible and avoided people as much as possible. So even though they lived in a large compound, no one in the compound was willing to help except the Xiang family no matter how difficult their family was.
At this time, everyone is having a hard time living, and no one is willing to lend a hand unless they are desperate, for fear that they will be blamed if they help.
Fan Yang thought that his grandmother was hesitant and wanted him to agree. He shook his grandmother's hand anxiously: "Grandma, my sister's illness can't be delayed any longer."
Chen Tang looked at her seriously, his eyes were clear and innocent, with doubts in them: "Grandma Fan, although I don't know why you are hesitating, I think no matter what, you can't trade Xiaoling for her.
My mother is also a doctor. She told me that the most precious thing in the world is life, and the most fragile thing is also life.
Xiaoling is only three years old. Her illness may only cost a dozen or twenty yuan to get better. This money is just my monthly salary. If I can spend a month's salary to save a person's life, I am willing to do so."
Grandma Fan remained silent for a long time and didn't say anything, which made Fan Yang very anxious, so he shouted "Grandma".
Finally, Grandma Fan moved. She tremblingly took out a handkerchief from her sleeve and wiped the wet corners of her eyes.
As if he had let down his guard, he stood up with sobs and wanted to bow to Chen Tang, but Chen Tang quickly supported him.
She didn't know what to say to express her gratitude, so she just said with tears in her eyes: "Thank you, we will definitely pay you back."
She pulled Fan Yang over and asked him to write down the thirty yuan given by Chen Tang and pay it back when their lives were better in the future.
The teacher would reimburse her for the money, so Chen Tang naturally didn't want them to pay it back. However, Fan Yang didn't know how to write her name, and Grandma Fan couldn't hold a pen, so she told her several times that it was not necessary before she persuaded Grandma Fan to stop forcing her to write it down.
But Chen Tang didn't know whether he had kept this sum of money in mind.
