Chapter 99: Pick up a bargain

And just now she took a closer look and found that the stopper on the snuff bottle seemed to be made of ivory. This was a real bargain.

"Uncle, I want both of these. Can you give me your address? I'll go over there with the milk powder later. Is that ok?"

"Girl, are you sure?" The old man stood up and asked with trembling lips. He has been here for 2 days and there was no one to ask. But this girl wanted it and even said there was milk powder. How could he not be excited?

"Uncle, I'm sure. Just tell me the address and I will definitely go. I'll get the milk powder now," Li Meng said with certainty.

The old man said "OK, OK, OK" three times in a row, and told Li Meng the address while trembling all over.

Li Meng took out a pen and wrote down the address, then she and Wu Ruirui, who had picked out the good things, walked out of the black market.

"Rui Rui, you ride your bike to the post office to mail the package first. I'm going to get something and then I'll wait for you at the post office door."

"Okay, then we'll meet at the post office. You go and do your thing first." Knowing that Li Meng had something to do, Wu Ruirui didn't ask any more questions and obediently went to the post office separately from Li Meng.

Li Meng walked into an empty alley, took out three cans of baby milk powder, as well as milk bottles, a small kettle, a small quilt for babies and other things from the Space Supermarket, wrapped them in a gray sheet, put them on her back, and walked out of the alley.

In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, I deliberately walked around the street several times before going to the address left by the old man.

I knocked politely on the simple wooden door and soon the old man came to the door and opened it.

When he saw it was the girl from before, his nervous heart finally settled down. When he came back, he told the old woman that someone would come to deliver milk powder. The old woman said that he was cheated and that someone was just fooling him. She didn't believe that a young girl could get milk powder and scolded him.

"Come in, come in," the old man led Li Meng into the door and called out his wife.

Li Meng saw the thin baby in the old woman's arms, with a red pouty face and the baby sucking her hand in its mouth.

"Girl, thank you. The old man told me that you saved my grandson's life. Thank you." After saying that, he bowed to Li Meng.

Li Meng quickly supported the old lady. She was not being kind, it was just an exchange. She couldn't bear to accept such a big gift.

"Auntie, don't thank me. I just happened to have some milk powder. Besides, I really want what you have. Is there any hot water at home? I'll make some milk powder for my child first."

"Okay, okay, I'll go boil some water now." The old lady put the baby on the bed and went to boil some water.

Li Meng took out the milk powder and the bottle and called the old man over to tell him how to make the milk powder better. She had seen her neighbor's sister making milk powder for her baby in Modern Times before, so she knew how to do it.

The old lady also boiled the hot water, and Li Meng poured it into the thermos, scalded the bottle, and stirred the hot water back and forth in a clean bowl for a few times until the water was warm enough to pour it into the bottle. She then scooped out 3 spoonfuls of milk powder and put them in the bottle, shook it well, and prepared to feed the baby.

Carefully pick up the baby and put the pacifier close to his mouth. The baby seemed to smell the fragrance, and took the pacifier in his mouth and started sucking it with big gulps.

Li Meng pinched the baby's red face with her fingers and smiled gently.

Seeing the baby finished sucking milk, Li Meng held the baby upright and patted the baby's back gently with her hand. After the baby burped, she put the baby back on the bed and covered him with a quilt.

The old man and the old woman looked at their grandson who was well fed, and watched Li Meng's actions with red eyes. They thought that she had met a good person. The old woman couldn't help but shed tears.

"You must add water to the milk powder first, and then the milk powder. This thermos bottle and small quilt are my gifts to this little baby." Li Meng put the baby down, covered him with the quilt, and stood up.

"Girl, here, I have packed these two things for you, take a look," the old man handed the things to Li Meng.

Li Meng opened it, took a look, and put it in his cloth bag.

"Uncle, my relatives are very interested in old things. If you still have any, can you keep them for me? As for milk powder, I will definitely prepare enough for you."

Li Meng thought about it and decided to express his thoughts.

"Is it true? I don't have it at home, but many families here have some old things. Okay, okay, if I find it later, I will send it to you. Is that okay with you?" the old man said excitedly.

"Okay, I'll leave you the address. If you find it, just send it to this address and say it's what Li Meng wanted." Li Meng was also very excited. This was a way to get rich.

Then she told him the address of the warehouse and was about to say goodbye. She sent Li Meng to the door amid the old couple's numerous thanks, and Li Meng waved goodbye.

After the old couple watched Li Meng disappear around the corner, they closed the door and went back into the house. They opened the bag that Li Meng brought and saw two cans of milk powder and a soft quilt inside. The old lady touched her grandson's face and murmured, "My baby, you have met a noble person."

Li Meng walked along the street to the door of the post office, thinking that she had wasted some time and wondered if Ruirui was waiting anxiously.

When they were almost at the post office, they saw a group of people gathered around watching something exciting. Li Meng was startled and ran over quickly, wondering if something had happened to Wu Ruirui.

When she pushed through the crowd, she saw that it was not Ruirui but Liu Huan. She was wrestling with a middle-aged woman, who was pulling her hair and slapping her. Of course, Liu Huan was being abused unilaterally and was being pinned down and beaten by the middle-aged woman.

Wu Ruirui also saw Li Meng in the crowd watching the excitement on the opposite side. He quietly ran over and held Li Meng's hand. The two of them left the crowd and came to the entrance of the alley opposite the post office.

"Oh my god, Mengmeng, you didn't see it. The attack power of this auntie was so strong that Liu Huan had no ability to defend herself or fight back." Wu Ruirui had a look of gloating on his face, and the gossip flames in his eyes were crackling as if they were about to burst out.

Li Meng knocked Wu Ruirui on the head. This girl really loved to watch the fun, making her worry in vain.

"Who is this person? Why did he fight with Liu Huan?" Li Meng was also a little curious.

"This person seems to be the mother of the man's fiancée. That's what I heard. Then the fight started. It seems that when Liu Huan was about to go in and fight with the man, he was seen by this middle-aged woman, and then the fight started."

"Where is that man? He doesn't show up when a fight breaks out?" Li Meng was very curious about this question.
