She could never forget the beautiful girl in front of her. Last time, she took some eggs home, and the children at home were very happy.

She was the only one working at the post office, and no one cared what she did.

When entertaining an acquaintance, she could just lead the person into the house to sit down.

Jiang Baige followed her into the house, carrying a large bag of things.

The eldest sister helped to pour a bowl of water, "Sister, drink some water."

Jiang Baige put the bag on the ground and took the water poured by her elder sister.

"Thanks."

The eldest sister also sat down and took a look at the things she placed on the ground.

"Sister, are you going to send something home again?"

Jiang Baige nodded and said, "My family is in financial difficulty right now and doesn't have much to eat. I'll save some and send it back home."

The elder sister smiled and said, "I work here and have met many people. Sister, the source of this thing of yours should not be saved!"

She spoke her mind without considering whether it would scare others.

Jiang Baige almost choked on the water she had just drunk.

Pretending to be calm, he asked, "Sister, what are you talking about? I don't understand."

The eldest sister said, "Sister, don't hide anything from me. I'm not a bad person."

"I know you have your own abilities. Can you help me and get me some food?"

"Everything is rationed now. My sister has a large family, six or seven people in total, big and small. Before the end of the month, the food supply at home has run out again."

Her tone was not threatening, but pleading.

Jiang Baige looked up at her and said, "Sister, how did you know I could get it?"

The eldest sister quickly glanced at the door, saw that there was no one, and smiled again.

"I've worked here for a few years and have met quite a few people. I noticed it the last time you came."

"Not to mention how much you can save in a month, even if you want to send it home like you do, it's not much at a time."

It turned out that she sent too much and someone found out.

Jiang Baige smiled awkwardly, "Sister, I do know someone with ability, but I don't have him around right now."

When the eldest sister heard that this was a promising idea, she happily took her hand and patted it gently.

"It's okay, it's okay tomorrow, sister. I'm counting on you."

As soon as she was happy, she hurried to pack the package for Jiang Baige.

Now when sending things, they are all packed in uniform sacks. After packing, Jiang Baige writes the home address and Jiang's father's name on them.

She had other things to do in the afternoon. She had to go to see Master Yang Wu and visit Sister Guo.

It cost a total of three dollars to send the package, and this sister helped me throughout the whole process.

The package had already been delivered to the warehouse before Jiang Baige gave her elder sister a definite answer.

"Sister, I'll bring it to you tomorrow morning. I have other things to do now, so I'll leave first."

The elder sister was just muttering in her heart. The girl didn't say when it would be delivered, and she just wanted to ask.

Now that she had gotten the correct answer, she was instantly overjoyed.

"Hey, sister, go and get busy. I'll be waiting for you here tomorrow."

She just wanted food, and she was already looking forward to how much she could buy tomorrow.

People like them don't dare to buy on the black market. If they get caught, they will lose their jobs.

Now she can think of another way and she is willing to spend the money.

When Jiang Baige left, she grabbed a handful of melon seeds from her pocket and put them into her elder sister's pocket.

She found that this thing was very popular at this time, and was very useful for entertaining people and chatting with others.

While eating melon seeds, he left the post office.

Seeing the little girl leave, the elder sister reached into her pocket. She had just seen her grab a handful of melon seeds, and now her pocket was full of them. It looked so bulging and she was very happy.

I can't bear to come to the county town. I have too many things to do this afternoon.

Mr. Yang Wu ordered so many goods last time, and she didn’t know if they had all been sold out. She wanted to go and check.

Also, Sister Guo’s child is so young, it’s really pitiful that he has no milk to drink. I don’t know if there is any milk powder left at home.

Apart from going to work, Xu Jie has been picking up some junk on the street to use as firewood.

As soon as I turned a corner, I bumped into someone's arms.

"Ouch! It hurts so much."

Jiang Baige covered her chest and looked down at the little head that bumped into her arms. "Uh, how come a child suddenly appeared?"

He pushed the person away and stared at him.

"Kid, why don't you watch where you're walking?"

Xu Jie just felt a headache and when he saw his feet in front of him, he knew he was in trouble again.

Afraid of being beaten again, he took a few steps back and hurriedly said sorry.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

Jiang Baige frowned, "Kid, raise your head."

Xu Jie looked up at her, his eyes lit up instantly, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Sister, why is it you?"

Jiang Baige was also puzzled. She met this kid several times every time she came to the county town. It was really fate.

He laughed, "Yeah! It's fate! What are you doing here?"

Xu Jie scratched his head and said, "I just came here to take a look."

Jiang Baige looked at the bamboo basket on his back, which contained some rags, rotten wood, and some branches.

She thought the child must be picking up trash.

What’s the point of such a young child receiving these questions? Doesn’t his family care about him?

Jiang Baige asked, "Where is your home? Didn't you say you would take me to your home last time? Why didn't you invite me today?"

Xu Jie thought his sister would not go, so this time, he didn't say anything.

He grinned when he heard his sister mention going to his house.

"Okay! Okay! Sister, let's go!"

He reached out and pulled Jiang Baige's sleeve and headed towards home.

Jiang Baige took a look at the thin little figure in front of her and felt inexplicably sad. A child this big must support the family, right?

The two of them left the county town in a short while, and there were fewer and fewer houses here.

Jiang Baige looked around and saw large tracts of land on both sides of a dirt road.

It was lunchtime and everyone working in the fields had already left.

"Sister, look at the village ahead. My home is here."

Xu Jie led the way with a backpack on his back, while Jiang Baige looked around at the surrounding environment along the way.

The houses in this village look much better than those in Chenjia Village. The environment is well planned and each house is independent.

This is equivalent to a small villa in later generations, but better than Chenjia Village.

The houses there are row houses, one next to the other. If the noise from the house next door is a little louder, the other family sitting next to them can hear it clearly.

Xu Jie took Jiang Baige on a small path, avoiding crowded places.

"Sister, my home is just ahead."

When Jiang Baige looked up, she was greatly disappointed by the house she saw.

Xu Jie's house was not as big as she thought. It was even more dilapidated and rotten than Grandma Meng's house.
